Remarks

Returns the CodeNamespace object associated with this CodeType. Namespace returns Nothing for types declared at the top level in a file or for a default or global namespace.

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).
