Type: System.CodeDom.Compiler.ICodeCompiler

System.CodeDom.Compiler.ICodeCompiler Interface

Assembly: System.dll
Namespace: System.CodeDom.Compiler

Summary: Provides a compiler execution interface.

C# Syntax:


        public interface ICodeCompiler

Remarks

This interface can be implemented to compile assemblies from Code Document Object Model (CodeDOM) compile units, strings containing source code, or source code files. This interface is well suited to compiling assemblies with dynamic content from CodeDom trees.

ICodeCompiler provides the capability to invoke compilation with specified parameters at runtime and access information related to compilation, including the result code, and any errors and warnings the compiler returns. File and line number information can also be reported for each error or wanring, so that user code to locate the code generating an error or warning can be implemented.

Each compilation invoking method accepts a CompilerParameters object that indicates compiler settings, and returns a CompilerResults object to indicate the results of compilation.

Compiler developers should provide an implementation of this interface to support dynamic compilation.
