    T newService
)
    where T : class

VB.NET

Public Function ReplaceService(Of T As Class)(
    newService As T
) As T

Parameters

newService	T	A service of the specified type that will be registered.

Name	Description
T	The service type.

T	Previously registered service of the specified type, or null (Nothing in Visual Basic) if the service does not exist.

Remarks

Use the ReplaceService<T> method instead of the RichEditControl.GetService -> RichEditControl.RemoveService -> RichEditControl.AddService method sequence. The following code snippet illustrates the service substitution technique in implementing a custom progress indicator.

Form1.cs

using DevExpress.Services;
            richEditControl1.ReplaceService<IProgressIndicationService>
                (new MyProgressIndicatorService(richEditControl1, this.progressBarControl1));

Form1.vb

Imports DevExpress.Services
            richEditControl1.ReplaceService(Of IProgressIndicationService) _
 (New MyProgressIndicatorService(richEditControl1, Me.progressBarControl1))
