Remarks

The ProvideViewAdapterAttribute attribute allows for file or language service specific view adapters. Knowledge of files and language services is reserved for the designer loader, but it is the design surface, not the designer loader, which is responsible for creating the view. So, the designer loader may offer file-specific view adapters through the WindowPaneProviderService. The design surface will look for this service, and if it is found, it will obtain a window pane from it. If the service is not available, a window pane will be created from the globally registered view adapters.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
