public string FullName { [System.Runtime.InteropServices.DispId(3)] get; }

[<get: System.Runtime.InteropServices.DispId(3)>]
member this.FullName : string
Public ReadOnly Property FullName As String

Property Value

A string representing the full name of the CodeNamespace file.

Attributes

Remarks

Name returns the name specified in code for the namespace declaration and FullName represents the compiler name.

For example, given:

Namespace A

Namespace B.Inner

End Namespace

End Namespace

The outer namespace returns .Name = A and the inner namespace returns .Name = B.Inner.

FullName returns the full name of the namespace including the names of all parent namespaces. For example, the .FullName value returned for the inner namespace would be A.B.Inner. If you are using Visual Basic or Visual C# and a root namespace named "Outer" exists, then .FullName would return Outer.A.B.Inner.

The FullName property is known as the FileName property in some versions of Visual Studio.

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).
