Returns a value indicating whether the language provider implementation is configured on the computer.

 property bool IsCodeDomProviderTypeValid { bool get(); };

public bool IsCodeDomProviderTypeValid { get; }

member this.IsCodeDomProviderTypeValid : bool

Public ReadOnly Property IsCodeDomProviderTypeValid As Boolean

Property Value

Boolean

true if the language provider implementation type is configured on the computer; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following code example determines whether the input language has a configured CodeDomProvider implementation on the computer. If there is a provider configured for the specified language, the example displays the language provider configuration settings. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the CompilerInfo class.

CodeDomProvider^ provider = nullptr;
CompilerInfo^ info = CodeDomProvider::GetCompilerInfo( configLanguage );

// Check whether there is a provider configured for this language.
if ( info->IsCodeDomProviderTypeValid )
{
   // Get a provider instance using the configured type information.
   provider = dynamic_cast<CodeDomProvider^>(Activator::CreateInstance( info->CodeDomProviderType ));
   if ( provider )
   {
      // Display information about this language provider.
      Console::WriteLine( "Language provider:  {0}", provider->ToString() );
      Console::WriteLine();
      Console::WriteLine( "  Default file extension:  {0}", provider->FileExtension );
      Console::WriteLine();
      
      // Get the compiler settings for this language.
      CompilerParameters^ langCompilerConfig = info->CreateDefaultCompilerParameters();
      if ( langCompilerConfig )
      {
         Console::WriteLine( "  Compiler options:        {0}", langCompilerConfig->CompilerOptions );
         Console::WriteLine( "  Compiler warning level:  {0}", langCompilerConfig->WarningLevel.ToString() );
      }
   }
}

if ( provider == nullptr ) // Tell the user that the language provider was not found.
   Console::WriteLine( "There is no provider configured for input language \"{0}\".", configLanguage );

CompilerInfo info = CodeDomProvider.GetCompilerInfo(configLanguage);

// Check whether there is a provider configured for this language.
if (info.IsCodeDomProviderTypeValid)
{
    // Get a provider instance using the configured type information.
    CodeDomProvider provider;
    provider = (CodeDomProvider)Activator.CreateInstance(info.CodeDomProviderType);

    // Display information about this language provider.
    Console.WriteLine("Language provider:  {0}",
        provider.ToString());
    Console.WriteLine();
    Console.WriteLine("  Default file extension:  {0}",
        provider.FileExtension);
    Console.WriteLine();

    // Get the compiler settings for this language.

    CompilerParameters langCompilerConfig = info.CreateDefaultCompilerParameters();

    Console.WriteLine("  Compiler options:        {0}",
        langCompilerConfig.CompilerOptions);
    Console.WriteLine("  Compiler warning level:  {0}",
        langCompilerConfig.WarningLevel);
}
else
{
    // Tell the user that the language provider was not found.
    Console.WriteLine("There is no provider configured for input language \"{0}\".",
        configLanguage);
}

Dim info As CompilerInfo = CodeDomProvider.GetCompilerInfo(configLanguage)

' Check whether there is a provider configured for this language.
If info.IsCodeDomProviderTypeValid Then
   ' Get a provider instance using the configured type information.
   Dim provider As CodeDomProvider
   provider = CType(Activator.CreateInstance(info.CodeDomProviderType), CodeDomProvider)
   
   ' Display information about this language provider.
   Console.WriteLine("Language provider:  {0}", _
       provider.ToString())
   Console.WriteLine()
   Console.WriteLine("  Default file extension:  {0}", _
       provider.FileExtension)
   Console.WriteLine()
   
   ' Get the compiler settings for this language.
   Dim langCompilerConfig As CompilerParameters = info.CreateDefaultCompilerParameters()
   
   Console.WriteLine("  Compiler options:        {0}", _
       langCompilerConfig.CompilerOptions)
   Console.WriteLine("  Compiler warning level:  {0}", _
       langCompilerConfig.WarningLevel)
Else
   ' Tell the user that the language provider was not found.
   Console.WriteLine("There is no provider configured for input language ""{0}"".", configLanguage)
End If

Remarks

Use the IsCodeDomProviderTypeValid property to check the CodeDomProvider implementation before accessing the provider properties or methods. For example, after you get the language provider settings from the GetCompilerInfo method, use the IsCodeDomProviderTypeValid property to verify the provider type implementation before calling the CreateProvider method or using the CodeDomProviderType property.
