   ByVal template As String _ 
) As String

public: 
String^ Process(  
   T^ item, 
   String^ template 
)

Parameters

item
The item to be passed to the Macro substitution delegate.

template
The template to process. This template string should contain macros in the form of ${macro_name}.

Return Value

A string that results from all of the macros being processed in the template.

Example

This example adds two macros to the macro processor and process a string.

using Leadtools.Dicom.Common.Anonymization; 
 
 
public void MacroProcessorSample() 
{ 
   MacroProcessor<object> processor = new MacroProcessor<object>(); 
 
   // 
   // add two macros to the macro processor 
   // 
   processor.Macros.Add("current_date", new MacroSubstitutionDelegate<object>(CurrentDateMacro)); 
   processor.Macros.Add("current_time", new MacroSubstitutionDelegate<object>(CurrentTimeMacro)); 
 
   // 
   // Process a macro string 
   // 
   Console.WriteLine(processor.Process(processor, "${current_date} ==> ${current_time}")); 
} 
 
private string CurrentDateMacro(object userData, string name, params object[] parameters) 
{ 
   return DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString(); 
} 
 
private string CurrentTimeMacro(object userData, string name, params object[] parameters) 
{ 
   return DateTime.Now.ToShortTimeString(); 
}

Public Sub MacroProcessorSample() 
   Dim processor As New MacroProcessor(Of Object)() 
 
   ' 
   ' add two macros to the macro processor

   processor.Macros.Add("current_time", New MacroSubstitutionDelegate(Of Object)(AddressOf CurrentTimeMacro)) 
 
   ' 
   ' Process a macro string 
   ' 
   Console.WriteLine(processor.Process(processor, "${current_date} ==> ${current_time}")) 
End Sub

   Return DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString() 
End Function
