IVsDataProvider.GetAssembly Method (Guid, String)
Resolves a provider-specific assembly string to its corresponding Assembly representation, for a specific DDEX data source.
Namespace: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Core
Assembly: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Core (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Core.dll)
Syntax
'Declaración
Function GetAssembly ( _
source As Guid, _
assemblyString As String _
) As Assembly
Assembly GetAssembly(
Guid source,
string assemblyString
)
Assembly^ GetAssembly(
Guid source,
String^ assemblyString
)
abstract GetAssembly :
source:Guid *
assemblyString:string -> Assembly
function GetAssembly(
source : Guid,
assemblyString : String
) : Assembly
Parameters
- source
Type: System.Guid
A DDEX data source identifier.
- assemblyString
Type: System.String
A provider-specific assembly string.
Return Value
Type: System.Reflection.Assembly
An Assembly object that represents the assembly that is resolved from the specified assembly string for the specified DDEX data source, if found; otherwise, nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
Exceptions
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentNullException | The assemblyString parameter is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic). |
| [<ANY>] | The DDEX provider’s GetAssembly or GetAssembly implementation threw an exception. |
Remarks
This method checks whether the source parameter value is a non-empty GUID, and, if it is, calls the DDEX provider’s GetAssembly method, if one exists. If no assembly is available at this point, it calls the GetAssembly method.
Examples
The following code demonstrates how to call this method with a provider-specific assembly string and then retrieve a string resource from the assembly.
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Reflection;
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Core;
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Services.SupportEntities;
public class DDEX_IVsDataProviderExample3
{
public static Stream GetProviderString(IVsDataProvider provider,
string resourceName, string assemblyString)
{
Assembly assembly = provider.GetAssembly(assemblyString);
return assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(resourceName);
}
}
