Properties

	Name	Description
	DefaultName	Gets or sets the default name of the editor.
	EditorFactoryNotify	Determines whether or not the extension should be registered with a EditorFactoryNotify registry value, which associates a file extension with a specific editor factory.
	Extension	Gets the file extension associated with this editor.
	Factory	Returns the GUID of the associated factory.
	NameResourceID	Gets and sets the integer NameResourceID.
	Priority	Gets the editor's priority as set in the constructor.
	ProjectGuid	Sets and gets the GUID of the project associated with this editor.
	TemplateDir	Gets or sets the template directory to be used by the editor factory to retrieve its source files.
	TypeId	Gets the current instance of this attribute. (Inherited from RegistrationAttribute.)

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals	Infrastructure. Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	GetHashCode	Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	IsDefaultAttribute	When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	Match	When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	Register	Called to register this attribute with the given context. The context contains the location where the registration information should be placed. It also contains the type being registered and path information. (Overrides RegistrationAttribute.Register(RegistrationAttribute.RegistrationContext).)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Unregister	Removes the registration information about a VSPackage when called by an external registration tool such as RegPkg.exe. For more information, see Registering VSPackages. (Overrides RegistrationAttribute.Unregister(RegistrationAttribute.RegistrationContext).)

Explicit Interface Implementations

	Name	Description
	_Attribute.GetIDsOfNames	Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	_Attribute.GetTypeInfo	Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	_Attribute.GetTypeInfoCount	Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1). (Inherited from Attribute.)
	_Attribute.Invoke	Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object. (Inherited from Attribute.)

Remarks

This attribute associates a file extension with a given editor factory. The file extension should include the prefixing ".". The editor factory may be specified as either a GUID or a type.

This attribute also associates a priority with the editor factory. For a given file extension, the editor with the highest priority is given the chance to read a file first. If the editor fails to read the file, the remaining editors are used in order of priority. To make a given editor the default, assign a priority greater than 0x60.

This attribute class is only used to provide data for external registration tools. It does not affect runtime behavior.

When to Call

Apply this file extension attribute to a package class that implements an editor factory. The package class must inherit from Package or IVsPackage.

Registry Entries

The following registry entry is created by this attribute:

VSROOT\Editors\{FactoryGuid}\Extensions\Extension = Priority

Note

The GUIDs for the Visual C# and Visual Basic project types are {FAE04EC0-301F-11D3-BF4B-00C04F79EFBC} and {F184B08F-C81C-45F6-A57F-5ABD9991F28F}, respectively.

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.
