Namespace:  VSLangProj80
Assembly:  VSLangProj80 (in VSLangProj80.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Property SubType As String
string SubType { get; set; }
property String^ SubType {
    String^ get ();
    void set (String^ value);
}
abstract SubType : string with get, set
function get SubType () : String
function set SubType (value : String)

Property Value

Type: System.String
A string value representing the assembly's subtype. For SQL Server Visual Basic or Visual C# projects, this property is set to SQLCLR if the reference was retrieved from the target SQL server.

Remarks

This property is useful only on SQL Server Visual Basic or Visual C# projects.

Examples

This example adds a reference to an open Visual Basic or Visual C# project and displays the reference subtype, if one exists. To run this example as an add-in, see How to: Compile and Run the Automation Object Model Code Examples.

The default paths for the reference added is: <drive>:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\COM. Replace <file path> in the example with this or another appropriate file path.
