IIncrementalGenerator Interface

Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.CodeAnalysis

Assembly:

Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.dll

Package:

Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Common v4.13.0

Source:

IIncrementalGenerator.cs

The base interface required to implement an incremental generator

C#

public interface IIncrementalGenerator

Remarks

The lifetime of a generator is controlled by the compiler. State should not be stored directly on the generator, as there is no guarantee that the same instance will be used on a subsequent generation pass.

Methods

Initialize(IncrementalGeneratorInitializationContext)

Called to initialize the generator and register generation steps via callbacks on the context

Extension Methods

AsSourceGenerator(IIncrementalGenerator)	Converts an IIncrementalGenerator into an ISourceGenerator object that can be used when constructing a GeneratorDriver
GetGeneratorType(IIncrementalGenerator)	Returns the underlying type of a given generator
