How to: Compile Example Code for Project Model Extensibility

Most reference topics in the Visual C++ Project Model contain a code example. This code example has been tested to compile using the macro environment and run in the Visual Studio integrated development environment (IDE) while a C++ project is active.

You must add the Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine reference to the macro environment. For more information, see How to: Add or Remove References in Visual Studio (Visual Basic).

Note

The dialog boxes and menu commands you see might differ from those described in Help depending on your active settings or edition. These procedures were developed with the General Development Settings active. To change your settings, choose Import and ExportSettings on the Tools menu. For more information, see Visual Studio Settings.

To compile and run a code sample with the macro editor

  1. On the View menu, point to Other Windows and then click Macro Explorer.

  2. Expand MyMacros.

  3. Right-click Module1 and click Edit on the shortcut menu.

    This opens the Visual Studios Macros environment.

  5. In the Add Reference dialog box, click Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine to select it, click Add, and click OK.

  6. Add the following code to the top of the module file:

    Imports Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine
    
  7. Add the sample code from the reference topic to the module file.

  8. Right-click MyMacros and click Build on the shortcut menu.

  9. Close the Visual Studios Macros environment.

  10. On the Tools menu, point to Macros, and then click Macro Explorer.
