Note that the namespace has changed with this version. From Grax to Grax32

Here is sample code demonstrating the provider with a POCO, an anonymous object, a dictionary, and an Expando object.

    using Grax32;

    [TestMethod]
    public void TestMulti()
    {
        var item0 = new TestThingy {SomeNum = 34, OtherNum = 55};
        var item1 = new {AnonValue = "xzy", AnonName = "Anon Obj"};
        var item2 = new Dictionary<string, string>() {{"mykey", "myvalue"}};
        dynamic item3 = new ExpandoObject();
        item3.ExpandoDate = new DateTime(2000, 1, 3);
        item3.Title = "Title";

        var result = string.Format(new InterpolationFormatProvider(),
            "{0:SomeNum}, {1:AnonValue}, {2:mykey}, {3:Title}",
            item0,
            item1,
            item2,
            item3);

        Assert.AreEqual("34, xzy, myvalue, Title", result);
    }
