Remarks

If the class is associated with a language service, the loader will be available to all files that share the same language service. If the class is associated with a file extension the loader will be available only to files with the extension. The choice of language and file extension is determined by the AttributeScope enumeration. The following values are allowed:

AttributeScope	ScopeData
Language	language service name
File	String (extension, including ".")

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
