Does anyone know how to get a CodeDomProvider in the new Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextTemplating.VSHost.BaseCodeGeneratorWithSite from the Visual Studio 2010 SDK? I used to get access to it just by in mere inheritance of the class Microsoft.CustomTool.BaseCodeGeneratorWithSite, but now with this new class it is not there. I see a GlobalServiceProvider and a SiteServiceProvider but I can't find any example on how to use them.
Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextTemplating.VSHost.BaseCodeGeneratorWithSite:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb932625.aspx
I was to do this:
public class Generator : Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextTemplating.VSHost.BaseCodeGeneratorWithSite {
public override string GetDefaultExtension() {
// GetDefaultExtension IS ALSO NOT ACCESSIBLE...
return this.InputFilePath.Substring(this.InputFilePath.LastIndexOf(".")) + ".designer" + base.GetDefaultExtension();
}
// This method is being called every time the attached xml is saved.
protected override byte[] GenerateCode(string inputFileName, string inputFileContent) {
try {
// Try to generate the wrapper file.
return GenerateSourceCode(inputFileName);
} catch (Exception ex) {
// In case of a faliure - print the exception
// as a comment in the source code.
return GenerateExceptionCode(ex);
}
}
public byte[] GenerateSourceCode(string inputFileName) {
Dictionary<string, CodeCompileUnit> oCodeUnits;
// THIS IS WHERE CodeProvider IS NOT ACCESSIBLE
CodeDomProvider oCodeDomProvider = this.CodeProvider;
string[] aCode = new MyCustomAPI.GenerateCode(inputFileName, ref oCodeDomProvider);
return Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(String.Join(@"
", aCode));
}
private byte[] GenerateExceptionCode(Exception ex) {
CodeCompileUnit oCode = new CodeCompileUnit();
CodeNamespace oNamespace = new CodeNamespace("System");
oNamespace.Comments.Add(new CodeCommentStatement(MyCustomAPI.Print(ex)));
oCode.Namespaces.Add(oNamespace);
string sCode = null;
using (StringWriter oSW = new StringWriter()) {
using (IndentedTextWriter oITW = new IndentedTextWriter(oSW)) {
this.CodeProvider.GenerateCodeFromCompileUnit(oCode, oITW, null);
sCode = oSW.ToString();
}
}
return Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(sCode );
}
}
Thanks for your help!
