Examples
See How to: Compile Example Code for Project Model Extensibility for information about how to compile and run this example.
The following example modifies the SourceDirectories property in the integrated development environment (IDE):
' add reference to Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine
Imports EnvDTE
Imports Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine
Public Module Module1
Sub Test()
Dim prj As VCProject
Dim cfgs, tools As IVCCollection
Dim cfg As VCConfiguration
Dim p As VCPlatform
Dim x As String
prj = DTE.Solution.Projects.Item(1).Object
p = prj.Platforms(1)
x = p.SourceDirectories
p.SourceDirectories = x + ";something"
MsgBox(p.SourceDirectories)
End Sub
End Module
Remarks
By default in Visual C++ 2010, this property does not inherit from parent or project defaults. To inherit defaults when you set an source files path, append the project $(SourcePath) macro to the path. For an example of inheriting project defaults for a property similar to this one, see the remarks and example for ExcludeDirectories.
