Plugin the Provider Pattern
I finally took a look at the Provider Pattern outlined by Rob Howard in MSDN's "Nothin' But ASP.NET" column. There's a Part II as well which comes with a nifty little code example. It's very similar to some work that I've already done with plugins defined in configuration files, so I thought I would abstract my work out a bit more and see if I could get it to support the Provider Pattern as well. Extending it to cater for providers was pretty simple with a little refactoring, but before I start talking about the code, lets take a look at what the Provider Pattern actually is.
