Gets or sets a path to use when searching for executable files while building a Visual C++ project.
Namespace: Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine
Assembly: Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Property ExecutableDirectories As String
string ExecutableDirectories { get; set; }
property String^ ExecutableDirectories {
String^ get ();
void set (String^ value);
}
abstract ExecutableDirectories : string with get, set
function get ExecutableDirectories () : String
function set ExecutableDirectories (value : String)
Property Value
Type: System.String
A path to use when searching for executable files while building a Visual C++ project. ExecutableDirectories corresponds to the environment variable, PATH.
Remarks
By default in Visual C++ 2010, this property does not inherit from parent or project defaults. To inherit defaults when you set an executable files path, append the project $(ExecutablePath) macro to the path. For an example of inheriting project defaults for a property similar to this one, see the remarks and example for ExcludeDirectories.
Examples
See How to: Compile Example Code for Project Model Extensibility for information about how to compile and run this example.
The following example modifies the ExecutableDirectories property in the integrated development environment (IDE):
' add reference to Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine
Imports EnvDTE
Imports Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine
Public Module Module1
Sub Test()
Dim prj As VCProject
Dim cfgs, tools As IVCCollection
Dim cfg As VCConfiguration
Dim p As VCPlatform
Dim x As String
prj = DTE.Solution.Projects.Item(1).Object
p = prj.Platforms(1)
x = p.ExecutableDirectories
p.ExecutableDirectories = x + ";something"
MsgBox(p.ExecutableDirectories)
End Sub
End Module
