Dim returnValue As IDictionary(Of Type, Exception)

returnValue = SPHealthAnalyzer.RegisterRules(assembly)
public static IDictionary<Type, Exception> RegisterRules(
    Assembly assembly
)

Type: System.Collections.Generic.IDictionary<Type, Exception>
A list of types that could not be registered and the exceptions that were thrown when registration failed.

Examples

The following example shows how to call the RegisterRules method in the FeatureActivated method of a class derived from the SPFeatureReceiver class. The example assumes that the feature receiver is in the same assembly as the rules that are being registered.

public override void FeatureActivated(SPFeatureReceiverProperties properties)
{
    Assembly a = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
    IDictionary<Type, Exception> exceptions = SPHealthAnalyzer.RegisterRules(a);

    if (exceptions != null)
    {
        string logEntry = a.FullName;
        if (exceptions.Count == 0)
        {
            logEntry += " All rules were registered.";
        }
        else
        {
            foreach (KeyValuePair<Type, Exception> pair in exceptions)
            {
                logEntry += string.Format(" Registration failed for type {0}. {1}",
                                          pair.Key, pair.Value.Message);
            }
        }
        System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine(logEntry);
    }
}
Public Overrides Sub FeatureActivated(ByVal properties As Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFeatureReceiverProperties)

    Dim a As Assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly()
    Dim exceptions As IDictionary(Of Type, Exception) = SPHealthAnalyzer.RegisterRules(a)

    If Not exceptions Is Nothing Then
        Dim logEntry As String = a.FullName
        If exceptions.Count = 0 Then
            logEntry += " All rules were registered."
        Else
            Dim pair As KeyValuePair(Of Type, Exception)
            For Each pair In exceptions
                logEntry += String.Format(" Registration failed for type {0}. {1}", _
                                              pair.Key, pair.Value.Message)
            Next
        End If
        System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine(logEntry)
    End If

End Sub
