Examples

This function returns the VCCodeModel object representing the first project in a solution.

Function GetVCCodeModel() As VCCodeModel  
    GetVCCodeModel = Nothing  
    Dim codeModel As CodeModel  
    Dim vcCodeModel As VCCodeModel  
    Dim solution As Solution  
    solution = DTE.Solution  
    If (solution Is Nothing) Then  
        MsgBox("A Solution is not open")  
        Exit Function  
    Else  
        If (DTE.Solution.Count <> 0) Then  
            codeModel = DTE.Solution.Item(1).CodeModel  
            vcCodeModel = CType(codeModel, VCCodeModel)  
            If (vcCodeModel Is Nothing) Then  
                MsgBox("The first project is not a VC++ project.")  
                Exit Function  
            Else  
                GetVCCodeModel = vcCodeModel  
            End If  
        End If  
    End If  
End Function  

Remarks

The VCCodeModel object provides code model functionality to various languages supported by Visual Studio (including Visual C++) at the project level.

Primarily, this object is used to find any code element accessible within a project (given a fully-qualified name). In addition, the object specifies the programming language in which the project is written.

Note

A large part of the functionality of this object is provided by the Visual Studio CodeModel2 object.

When using a VCCodeModel object within a managed project, include Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCCodeModel.dll as a reference. For more information about adding references to a managed project, see NIB How to: Add or Remove References By Using the Add Reference Dialog Box.

See How to: Compile Example Code for Visual C++ Code Model Extensibility for information about how to compile and run this sample.
