Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IAuthenticationProvider. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Remarks

Supported file types are jpg, png, gif, svg, and webp.

For a hypothetical ExampleProvider in the Gemstone.Example namespace, the embedded resource name for a jpg icon would be Gemstone.Example.ExampleProvider.jpg.

Expect that icons will be rendered in an approximately square space, 32 pixels tall. Therefore, a good target size would be 32x32, but it can be a bit wider or narrower.
