Examples

The following code example contains the code for a Form that is configured to demonstrate the behavior of a network of linked service containers.

#using <System.Windows.Forms.dll>
#using <System.dll>
#using <System.Drawing.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Drawing;
using namespace System::Collections;
using namespace System::ComponentModel;
using namespace System::ComponentModel::Design;
using namespace System::Windows::Forms;
using namespace System::Windows::Forms::Design;

// This sample contains a Form class that is configured to demonstrate 
// the behavior of a network of linked service containers.   
// Notes regarding this IServiceContainer and IServiceProvider 
// implementation:
//
// When implementing the IServiceContainer interface, you may want to 
// implement support for a linked service container system
// which enables access to and sharing of services throughout a 
// container tree or network.
//
// To effectively share a service, a GetService, AddService or 
// RemoveService method must be able to locate a service 
// that has been added to a shared service container tree or network.
//        
// One simple approach to sharing services, suitable for container networks 
// where each container has one parent and the tree has
// one parentless container, is to store services only at the top node 
// (the root or grandparent) of a tree.
//
// To store services in the root node of a tree, two types of 
// consistencies must be maintained in the implementation:        
//
//   >   The GetService, AddService and RemoveService implementations 
//       must access the root through some mechanism.
//         The ServiceContainerControl's implementations of these 
//         standard IServiceContainer methods call 
//         the same method of a parent container, if the container 
//         has been parented, to route methods to the root.  
//
//   >   The services must be maintained at the root of the tree; 
//       therefore, any new child's services should be copied to the root.

    // This sample contains a Form class that is configured to demonstrate 
    // the behavior of a network of linked service containers.   
    
    // Notes regarding this IServiceContainer and IServiceProvider 
    // implementation:
    //
    // When implementing the IServiceContainer interface, you may want to 
    // implement support for a linked service container system
    // which enables access to and sharing of services throughout a 
    // container tree or network.
    //
    // To effectively share a service, a GetService, AddService or 
    // RemoveService method must be able to locate a service 
    // that has been added to a shared service container tree or network.
    //        
    // One simple approach to sharing services, suitable for container networks 
    // where each container has one parent and the tree has
    // one parentless container, is to store services only at the top node 
    // (the root or grandparent) of a tree.
    //
    // To store services in the root node of a tree, two types of 
    // consistencies must be maintained in the implementation:        
    //
    //   >   The GetService, AddService and RemoveService implementations 
    //       must access the root through some mechanism.
    //         The ServiceContainerControl's implementations of these 
    //         standard IServiceContainer methods call 
    //         the same method of a parent container, if the container 
    //         has been parented, to route methods to the root.  
    //
    //   >   The services must be maintained at the root of the tree; 
    //       therefore, any new child's services should be copied to the root.                

    // ServiceContainerControl provides an example user control implmentation 
    // of the IServiceContainer interface. This implementation of 
    // IServiceContainer supports a root-node linked service distribution, 
    // access. and removal architecture.

' This sample contains a Form class that is configured to demonstrate 
' the behavior of a network of linked service containers.   

' Notes regarding this IServiceContainer and IServiceProvider implementation:
'
' When implementing the IServiceContainer interface, you may want to 
' implement support for a linked service container system
' which enables access to and sharing of services throughout a 
' container tree or network.
'
' To effectively share a service, a GetService, AddService or 
' RemoveService method must be able to locate a service 
' that has been added to a shared service container tree or network.
'        
' One simple approach to sharing services, suitable for container networks 
' where each container has one parent and the tree has
' one parentless container, is to store services only at the top node 
' (the root or grandparent) of a tree.
'
' To store services in the root node of a tree, two types of 
' consistencies must be maintained in the implementation:        
'
'   >   The GetService, AddService and RemoveService implementations 
'       must access the root through some mechanism.
'         The ServiceContainerControl's implementations of these 
'         standard IServiceContainer methods call 
'         the same method of a parent container, if the container 
'         has been parented, to route methods to the root.  
'
'   >   The services must be maintained at the root of the tree; 
'       therefore any new child's services should be copied to the root.                

' ServiceContainerControl provides an example user control implmentation 
' of the IServiceContainer interface. This implementation of 
' IServiceContainer supports a root-node linked service distribution, 
' access and removal architecture.

Remarks

A service container is, by definition, a service provider. In addition to providing services, it also provides a mechanism for adding and removing services. Services are a foundation of the .NET Framework design-time architecture. Services provide design-time objects access to specific features and methods implemented by a service object that provides a service or services.

To obtain a service at design time, call the GetService method of a component sited in design mode. Designers and other objects can add or remove services at design time through the IDesignerHost interface.

Service containers can be contained by other service containers, forming a tree of service containers. By default, the IServiceContainer interface adds services to the closest service container. When a service is added, it can be added with instructions to promote it. When a service is promoted, it is added to any parent service container, on up until the top of the service container tree is reached. This allows a designer to provide a global service that other objects in the process can use.

Methods

AddService(Type, Object, Boolean)

Adds the specified service to the service container, and optionally promotes the service to any parent service containers.

AddService(Type, Object)

Adds the specified service to the service container.

AddService(Type, ServiceCreatorCallback, Boolean)

Adds the specified service to the service container, and optionally promotes the service to parent service containers.

AddService(Type, ServiceCreatorCallback)

Adds the specified service to the service container.

GetService(Type)

Gets the service object of the specified type.

(Inherited from IServiceProvider)
RemoveService(Type, Boolean)

Removes the specified service type from the service container, and optionally promotes the service to parent service containers.

RemoveService(Type)

Removes the specified service type from the service container.
