Examples

See How to: Compile Example Code for Visual C++ Code Model Extensibility for information about how to compile and run this example.

CanAddAssemblyReference adds a .NET assembly reference to your project based on the path to the assembly, if possible.

' Add a reference to Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine and have a   
' Visual C++ project loaded before running this example.  
Imports EnvDTE  
Imports Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine  
Public Module Module1  
    Sub Test()  
        Dim prj As VCProject  
        Dim vcar As VCAssemblyReference  
        Dim refcfg As VCReferenceConfiguration  

        prj = DTE.Solution.Projects.Item(1).Object  
        If prj.CanAddAssemblyReference("C:\Program Files\ _  
        Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\ _  
        PublicAssemblies\envdte.dll") Then  
           vcar = prj.AddAssemblyReference("C:\Program Files\ _  
           Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\ _  
           PublicAssemblies\envdte.dll")  
        End If  
        refcfg = vcar.ReferenceConfigurations.Item(1)  
        MsgBox("Consumable? " & refcfg.ConsumableByDesigner)  
    End Sub  
End Module

Remarks

It would not be okay to add an assembly reference if, for example, you have an invalid GUID.

This method is generally used in tandem with the AddAssemblyReference method. You use this method to determine whether it is okay to add an assembly reference, and if it is, then you call AddAssemblyReference.
