Remarks

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).

Examples

public void Example(DTE2 dte)
{
   // Before running this example, open a code document from a
   // project and place the insertion point inside a delegate declaration.
   try
   {
      TextSelection objTextSel;
      CodeDelegate objCodeDel;
      CodeElement objCodeElem;

      objTextSel = (TextSelection)dte.ActiveDocument.Selection;
      objCodeDel = (CodeDelegate)objTextSel.ActivePoint.get_CodeElement(vsCMElement.vsCMElementDelegate);

      // Display the fullname of the CodeDelegate object.
      MessageBox.Show(objCodeDel.FullName);

      // Prove that the parent object of a CodeClass is a CodeElement.
      objCodeElem = (CodeElement)objCodeDel.Parent;
   }
   catch (Exception ex)
   {
      MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
   }
}
