Public Function GetUniqueFilename (pDispatch As Object, bstrRoot As String, bstrDesiredExt As String) As String

Parameters

pDispatch: Object

The name generated has this value as the extension.

bstrRoot: String

A Project object or a folder ProjectItem object. The file name generated is unique within this context.

bstrDesiredExt: String

The name generated starts with this string.

Returns

String

A string representing a file name that is unique in the project or project folder. If the first parameter is a Project instance, then the name generated is unique within the root project folder. The file name takes the form Root?.Extension, where ? is one or more numerals (1, 2, 3, and so on).

Implements

GetUniqueFilename(Object, String, String)

Attributes: DispIdAttribute

Examples

This example displays a file name that is unique in the project folder, in the form root?.ext. To run this example as an add-in, see How to: Compile and Run the Automation Object Model Code Examples. Open a Visual Basic or Visual C# project before running this example.

    MessageBox.Show(vsproj.GetUniqueFilename(proj, "Root", "ext"));  
}

Remarks

A typical use for this method is to generate a name for a new project item.

If you call this method with KeyFile as the root and snk as the extension, the string returned is KeyFile.snk, if the file KeyFile.snk does not already exist. If the file KeyFile.snk already exists, then KeyFile1.snk is returned. Note that if multiple calls are made to this method and no file is created from the returned file name, all the calls return the same value. The results depend only on the files that exist at the time of the method call.
