Namespace: DevExpress.XtraPdfViewer
Assembly: DevExpress.XtraPdfViewer.v24.2.dll
NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.PdfViewer
#Declaration
#Parameters
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
service |
Type | The type of service to remove. |
#Remarks
The PdfViewer control implements IServiceProvider and IServiceContainer interfaces. In addition to providing services, it also provides a mechanism for adding and removing services. To obtain a service, call the PdfViewer.GetService<T> method.
#Example
This example shows how to modify the functionality of an existing PdfViewer command.
The PdfViewer exposes the IPdfViewerCommandFactoryService interface that enables you to substitute the default command with your own custom command.
To accomplish this task:
- Create a custom command class (for example, a CustomNextPageCommand class), inherited from the command that you wish to replace (for example, PdfNextPageCommand).
- Override the required method of the command. The main functionality and command specifics are located in the Execute method.
- Create a class (for example, CustomPdfViewerCommandFactoryService) that implements the IPdfViewerCommandFactoryService. You should override the IPdfViewerCommandFactoryService.CreateCommand method to create an instance of a custom command class if an identifier of a certain command is passed as a parameter. So, instead of the default command, a custom command will be used by the PdfViewer.
- Use the created class to substitute for the default PdfViewer’s service.

void ReplacePdfViewerCommandFactoryService(PdfViewer control) {
IPdfViewerCommandFactoryService service = control.GetService<IPdfViewerCommandFactoryService>();
if (service == null)
return;
control.RemoveService(typeof(IPdfViewerCommandFactoryService));
control.AddService(typeof(IPdfViewerCommandFactoryService), new CustomPdfViewerCommandFactoryService(control,service));
}
public Form1() {
InitializeComponent();
pdfViewer1.LoadDocument("..\\..\\Demo.pdf");
ReplacePdfViewerCommandFactoryService(pdfViewer1);
}
}
