Remarks

Sites bind a Component to a Container and enable communication between them, as well as provide a way for the container to manage its components.

Sites can also serve as a repository for container-specific, per-component information, such as the component name.

Notes to Implementers

To be a site, a class must implement the ISite interface.

Properties

Component	Gets the component associated with the ISite when implemented by a class.
Container	Gets the IContainer associated with the ISite when implemented by a class.
DesignMode	Determines whether the component is in design mode when implemented by a class.
Name	Gets or sets the name of the component associated with the ISite when implemented by a class.

Methods

GetService(Type)

Gets the service object of the specified type. (Inherited from IServiceProvider)

Extension Methods

GetRequiredKeyedService(IServiceProvider, Type, Object)	Get service of type serviceType from the IServiceProvider.
GetRequiredKeyedService<T>(IServiceProvider, Object)	Get service of type T from the IServiceProvider.
CreateAsyncScope(IServiceProvider)	Creates a new AsyncServiceScope that can be used to resolve scoped services.
CreateScope(IServiceProvider)	Creates a new IServiceScope that can be used to resolve scoped services.
GetRequiredService(IServiceProvider, Type)	Get service of type serviceType from the IServiceProvider.
GetRequiredService<T>(IServiceProvider)	Get service of type T from the IServiceProvider.
