I'm not so sure about the similar code in .NET but I'm interested in .NET Standard or .NET Core, my custom CustomTypeDescriptor
never has a chance to be injected/used because the custom TypeDescriptionProvider
does not seem to work, here is a simple implementation (actually not any custom logic added yet):
public class CustomTypeDescProvider : TypeDescriptionProvider
{
public override ICustomTypeDescriptor GetTypeDescriptor(Type objectType, object instance)
{
//set breakpoint here and wait forever for its jumping in.
return base.GetTypeDescriptor(objectType, instance);
}
}
I've tried adding the custom description provider like this:
public class MyType {
static MyType(){
TypeDescriptor.AddProvider(new CustomTypeDescProvider(), typeof(MyType));
}
//...
}
as well as using the TypeDescriptionProviderAttribute
like this:
[TypeDescriptionProvider(typeof(CustomTypeDescProvider))]
public class MyType {
//...
}
It never comes to my set breakpoint inside GetTypeDescriptor(Type objectType, object instance)
. So with my knowledge, it should be invoked at least when any code accessing the metadata info (attributes, properties, ... such as by using reflection) of the type MyType
, but it always seems to use the default provider.
Not any exception raised to tell me that Hey your code will not work, stop hoping for it working
, and actually I can even see this event TypeDescriptor.Refreshed
triggered after the call TypeDescriptor.AddProvider
, which as documented means that it succeeded, well really ridiculous, maybe I don't understand its definition of the so-called success.
Could you please give me any explanation to its not-working in this case? Don't we have any way to make it work? This is especially important to me to make my library project not depend on some dependencies. Thanks!
