Remarks

Note
This material discusses types and namespaces that are obsolete. For more information, see Deprecated Types in Windows Workflow Foundation 4.5.

The class you use to filter the types to display in the class browser dialog box must implement ITypeFilterProvider.

Use the TypeFilterProviderTypeName property to determine the name of the filter class.

For more information about using attributes, see Extending Metadata Using Attributes.
