Examples

The following code example enumerates the language providers on the computer and displays the configuration and compiler settings for each language provider. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the CompilerInfo class.

   String^ defaultExtension;

   CodeDomProvider^ provider = nullptr;
   if ( info )
      provider = info->CreateProvider();

   if ( provider )
   {
      // Display information about this configured provider.
      Console::WriteLine( "Language provider:  {0}", provider->ToString() );
      Console::WriteLine();
      Console::WriteLine( "  Supported file extension(s):" );

Remarks

The CreateProvider method returns a CodeDomProvider instance for the current language provider settings.

Use the CreateProvider method to get a CodeDomProvider implementation for a CompilerInfo instance returned by the CodeDomProvider.GetAllCompilerInfo or CodeDomProvider.GetCompilerInfo method.
