I am also playing around with System.CodeDom. What an awesome namespace! Using classes like System.CodeDom.CodeStatementCollection and System.CodeDom.Compiler.ICodeGenerator, you can actually generate both C# and VB.NET code on the fly. Take a look at this code to generate i = 10 in both languages:
using System;
using System.CodeDom;
namespace CodeDomBaby
{
///
/// Summary description for Class1.
///
class Class1
{
///
/// The main entry point for the application.
///
[STAThread]
static void Main()
{
System.CodeDom.CodeStatementCollection statements = new CodeStatementCollection(); CodeVariableDeclarationStatement variable = new CodeVariableDeclarationStatement
(System.Type.GetType("System.Int32"), "i", new CodePrimitiveExpression(10));
CodeVariableReferenceExpression variableRef =
new CodeVariableReferenceExpression("i");
statements.Add(variable);
System.CodeDom.Compiler.CodeDomProvider provider;
bool generateCSharp = true;
if (generateCSharp)
provider = new Microsoft.CSharp.CSharpCodeProvider();
else
provider = new Microsoft.VisualBasic.VBCodeProvider();
System.CodeDom.Compiler.ICodeGenerator generator = provider.CreateGenerator();
foreach (CodeStatement s in statements)
generator.GenerateCodeFromStatement(s, Console.Out,
new System.CodeDom.Compiler.CodeGeneratorOptions());
}
}
}
