Object that can provide services for the markup extension. The provider is expected to provide a service for IXamlTypeResolver.

Some part of the typeName string did not parse properly.

Remarks

You can pass null for serviceProvider, but only if this TypeExtension instance was established with an initial true type in the constructor rather than a typeName. Otherwise, this markup extension implementation relies on services based on the passed serviceProvider. It must not be null. The serviceProvider is expected to provide a service for IXamlTypeResolver.
