Caution
ICodeGenerator has been deprecated. Use the methods directly on the CodeDomProvider class instead. Classes inheriting from CodeDomProvider must still implement this interface, and should suppress this warning or also mark this method as obsolete.
Caution
Callers should not use the ICodeGenerator interface and should instead use the methods directly on the CodeDomProvider class. Those inheriting from CodeDomProvider must still implement this interface, and should exclude this warning or also obsolete this method.

Remarks
This method is obsolete. The recommended alternative is to call the ICodeGenerator methods that are directly available in the CodeDomProvider class.
Notes to Implementers
You should implement the ICodeGenerator members in the CodeDomProvider class and throw a NotSupportedException when this method is called.

When overridden in a derived class, creates a new code generator using the specified TextWriter for output.
public:
virtual System::CodeDom::Compiler::ICodeGenerator ^ CreateGenerator(System::IO::TextWriter ^ output);public virtual System.CodeDom.Compiler.ICodeGenerator CreateGenerator(System.IO.TextWriter output);abstract member CreateGenerator : System.IO.TextWriter -> System.CodeDom.Compiler.ICodeGenerator
override this.CreateGenerator : System.IO.TextWriter -> System.CodeDom.Compiler.ICodeGeneratorPublic Overridable Function CreateGenerator (output As TextWriter) As ICodeGeneratorParameters
- output
- TextWriter
A TextWriter to use to output.
Returns
An ICodeGenerator that can be used to generate System.CodeDom based source code representations.
Remarks
This method uses the specified TextWriter for output. This method supports more optimized code generation that incrementally updates the source code.
Note
The base class implementation calls the CreateGenerator method, which is obsolete and results in a NotSupportedException if an ICodeGenerator object is not returned.

Remarks
This method uses the specified file name for output.
Note
