C#

public override void AddGeneratorUpdaters(ModelNodesGeneratorUpdaters updaters) {
    base.AddGeneratorUpdaters(updaters);
    updaters.Add(new MyGeneratorUpdater1());
    updaters.Add(new MyGeneratorUpdater2());
    // ...
}

VB.NET

Public Overrides Sub AddGeneratorUpdaters(ByVal updaters As ModelNodesGeneratorUpdaters)
    MyBase.AddGeneratorUpdaters(updaters)
    updaters.Add(New MyGeneratorUpdater1())
    updaters.Add(New MyGeneratorUpdater2())
    ' ...
End Sub
