IConfigurationSectionHandler
The IConfigurationSectionHandler interface defines the contract that all configuration section handlers
must implement in order to participate in the resolution of configuration settings.
Composes and creates config objects.
This interface is implemented by config providers. Classes implementing IConfigurationSectionHandler
define the rules for cooking XML config into usable objects. The cooked objects can be of arbitrary
type.
Configuration is composable (e.g., config in a child directory is layered over config in a parent
directory), so, IConfigurationSectionHandler is supplied with the parent config as well as any number of
XML fragments.
using System.Xml;
namespace System.Configuration
{
public interface IConfigurationSectionHandler
{
object Create(object parent, object configContext, XmlNode section);
}
}
