Examples

    ' Before running this example, open a code document from a project  
    ' and place the insertion point inside a class definition.

Remarks

The value must be a string or a CodeElement for an expression object. When setting this to a string, the implementation of the property inserts any required syntax, such as equal signs or semicolons, if the variable does not already have an initialization expression.

Depending on the languages and syntactic or semantic checks it performs on the passed-in string, setting this property might fail. Languages are not required to check the string, and because the string is necessarily language-dependent, setting this property can result in undefined behavior if the string has ill-formed content.

When setting this property to a CodeElement, whether or not the CodeElement must be newly created depends on the language implementation of the code model. Some languages might implement copying semantics if you pass in a CodeElement that is already in a source file.

Note

The values of code model elements such as classes, structs, functions, attributes, delegates, and so forth can be non-deterministic after making certain kinds of edits, meaning that their values cannot be relied upon to always remain the same. For more information, see the section Code Model Element Values Can Change in Discovering Code by Using the Code Model (Visual Basic).
