Examples
For information on how to run this add-in code, see How to: Compile and Run the Automation Object Model Code Examples.
The following example counts the number of add-ins in an open solution.
Public Sub OnConnection(ByVal application As Object, _
ByVal connectMode As ext_ConnectMode, ByVal addInInst As Object, _
ByRef custom As Array) Implements IDTExtensibility2.OnConnection
_applicationObject = CType(application, DTE2)
_addInInstance = CType(addInInst, AddIn)
SolutionAddInsExample(_applicationObject)
End Sub
Sub SolutionAddInsExample(ByVal dte As DTE2)
' This add-in counts the add-ins in a solution.
' Open a solution in Visual Studio before running this
' example.
Try
Dim soln As Solution2 = CType(_applicationObject.Solution, _
Solution2)
' List the number of add-ins.
MsgBox("Number of add-ins in" & soln.FullName & " is: " _
& soln.AddIns.Count)
Catch ex As System.Exception
MsgBox(ex.ToString)
End Try
End Sub
//you will need to add this reference to your project as well
using System.Windows.Forms;
public void OnConnection(object application,
Extensibility.ext_ConnectMode connectMode, object addInInst,
ref System.Array custom)
{
_applicationObject = (DTE2)application;
_addInInstance = (AddIn)addInInst;
// Pass the applicationObject member variable to the code example.
SolutionAddInsExample((DTE2)_applicationObject);
}
public void SolutionAddInsExample(DTE2 dte)
{
// This add-in counts the add-ins in a solution.

try{

// List the number of Add-ins.
MessageBox.Show("Number of add-ins in" + soln.FullName
+ " is: " + "\n" + soln.AddIns.Count);
