VCCodeInterface Interface

Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCCodeModel

Assembly:

Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCCodeModel.dll

An object representing either a standard .idl interface, a dispinterface code element, or a code element (modified by the __interface keyword) in the source code of a solution.

public interface class VCCodeInterface

public interface class VCCodeInterface

__interface VCCodeInterface

[System.Runtime.InteropServices.Guid("DDCA1D14-BEBF-4F38-9708-7399A8F91B38")]

Examples

This example retrieves the first VCCodeInterface object of the current solution and displays it in a message box. It assumes a project containing interfaces is open.

[Visual Basic]

Sub GetFirstInterface()  
    Dim vcCM As VCCodeModel  
    Dim vcInterface As VCCodeInterface  
    vcCM = DTE.Solution.Item(1).CodeModel  
    vcInterface = vcCM.Interfaces.Item(1)  
    MsgBox(vcInterface.DisplayName)  
End Sub  

Remarks

The VCCodeInterface object represents an interface code element. Primarily, the object is used to access or modify the elements of an existing interface.

Note

A large part of the functionality of this object is provided by the Visual Studio CodeInterface object. For more information, see CodeInterface object.

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