Note: This API is now obsolete.
Represents the compiler for workflows that are developed using C# or Visual Basic code and/or XAML markup. This class cannot be inherited.
Namespace: System.Workflow.ComponentModel.Compiler
Assembly: System.Workflow.ComponentModel (in System.Workflow.ComponentModel.dll)
The WorkflowCompiler type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |

 | Compile | Compiles a list of workflows contained in the files that are passed as parameters based on the WorkflowCompilerParameters. |
| Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |

The following code example demonstrates how to create a new instance of the WorkflowCompiler class and run the Compile method. The code also creates a new instance of the WorkflowCompilerParameters class and sets some of its values. This code assumes that results is of type WorkflowCompilerResults. This code example is part of the Outlook Workflow Wizard SDK sample from the WizardForm.cs file. For more information, see Outlook Workflow Wizard.
// Compile the workflow String[] assemblyNames = { "ReadEmailActivity.dll" }; WorkflowCompiler compiler = new WorkflowCompiler(); WorkflowCompilerParameters parameters = new WorkflowCompilerParameters(assemblyNames); parameters.LibraryPaths.Add(Path.GetDirectoryName(typeof(BaseMailbox).Assembly.Location)); parameters.OutputAssembly = "CustomOutlookWorkflow" + Guid.NewGuid().ToString() + ".dll"; results = compiler.Compile(parameters, this.xamlFile);
