Remarks

The RegionMode property specifies whether an instance represents the start or end of the region.

Note

Not all compilers support code region directives. To prevent compiler errors, code providers normally do not include code region directives in the provider output for compilers that do not support them.

Constructors

CodeRegionDirective()	Initializes a new instance of the CodeRegionDirective class with default values.
CodeRegionDirective(CodeRegionMode, String)	Initializes a new instance of the CodeRegionDirective class, specifying its mode and name.

Properties

RegionMode	Gets or sets the mode for the region directive.
RegionText	Gets or sets the name of the region.
UserData	Gets the user-definable data for the current object. (Inherited from CodeObject)

Methods

Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
