The RegisterAutoLoadAttribute type exposes the following members.

Constructors

  Name Description
Public method RegisterAutoLoadAttribute Creates a new RegisterAutoLoadAttribute object and saves the GUID of the package that initiated package loading.

Top

Properties

  Name Description
Public property LoadGuid Returns the context GUID that triggers package load.
Public property TypeId Gets the current instance of this attribute. (Inherited from RegistrationAttribute.)

Methods

  Name Description
Public method Equals Infrastructure. Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.)
Public method GetHashCode Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute.)
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method IsDefaultAttribute When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class. (Inherited from Attribute.)
Public method Match When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.)
Public method Register Provides registration information about a VSPackage when called by an external registration tool such as RegPkg.exe. (Overrides RegistrationAttribute.Register(RegistrationAttribute.RegistrationContext).)
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method Unregister Removes registration information about a VSPackage when called by an external registration tool such as RegPkg.exe. (Overrides RegistrationAttribute.Unregister(RegistrationAttribute.RegistrationContext).)

Remarks

Basic Usage

RegisterAutoLoadAttribute registers the VSPackage as an extender (an object which implements IExtenderProvider. The GUID passed to the constructor determines the context in which the package loads. To use RegisterAutoLoadAttribute, place it on a package class, such as Package or a class that implements IVsPackage.

This attribute class is only used to provide data for external registration tools. It does not have any effect on the runtime behavior of the VSPackage.

Note

Visual C# automatically appends the word "Attribute" to the name of any attribute class. In Visual C# code, refer to this attribute as RegisterAutoLoad.

Note

The GUIDS for the Visual C# and Visual Basic project types are: Visual C#: {FAE04EC0-301F-11D3-BF4B-00C04F79EFBC} and Visual Basic : {F184B08F-C81C-45F6-A57F-5ABD9991F28F}.

Registry Entries

The following registry entries are created by RegisterAutoLoadAttribute:

  • <VSROOT>\AutoLoadPackages\{ContextGuid}

  • <VSROOT>\AutoLoadPackages\{ContextGuid}\{PackageGuid}=0

Samples

You can find implementations of the RegisterAutoLoadAttribute class in the managed samples. The standard location for this and all other attributes used for automatic registration is adjacent to the implementation of the Package class in VsPkg.cs, VsPkg.vb, or VsPkg.cpp, depending on the language used in the sample.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
