Remarks
The GlobalObjectProviderFactory class provides a mechanism for enumerating global object providers.
Design-time tools that are concerned only with accessing a list of current global objects or types instead typically use the GetGlobalObjects or GetGlobalTypes methods of the GlobalObjectService class.
There is a default implementation of this mechanism built into Microsoft Visual Studio design environment. This implementation looks in the registry for all available global object providers on each call; it does not cache any data. Custom project types may specify which global objects are returned by providing a class derived from GlobalObjectProviderFactory in their project context. This will preempt the service that is built into the design package.
