The VCCodeBase type exposes the following members.

Properties

	Name	Description
	Access	Sets or gets the access attributes of this item.
	Children	Gets a collection of objects contained within this code construct.
	Class	Gets the base class or the actual base class declaration of the parent object.
	CodeModel	Gets the VCCodeModel for the project.
	Collection	Gets the collection containing the object supporting this property or contained within this code construct.
	Comment	Gets or sets the comment associated with the code element.
	DeclarationText	Gets or sets the declaration of the parent object.
	DisplayName	Gets the full name of the parent object.
	DTE	Gets the top-level extensibility object.
	EndPoint	Gets the text point that is the location of the end of the code item.
	EndPointOf	Returns the end point of the parent object.
	Extender	Returns the requested Extender object if it is available for this object.
	ExtenderCATID	Gets the Extender category ID (CATID) for the object.
	ExtenderNames	Gets a list of available Extenders for the object.
	File	Gets the file in which this VCCodeBase is contained.
	FullName	Gets the full path and name of the object's file.
	InfoLocation	Gets the capabilities of the code model.
	IsCaseSensitive	Gets whether a code element is case-sensitive.
	IsCodeType	Gets a value indicating whether a CodeType object can be obtained from this object.
	IsInjected	Gets whether a code element has been injected by an attribute or macro expansion.
	IsReadOnly	Gets whether the file containing the parent object is read-only.
	IsVirtual	Sets or gets whether the parent object is virtual.
	IsZombie	Gets whether the VCCodeBase object exists.
	Kind	Returns an enumeration indicating the type of object.
	Language	For code model objects, returns the programming language used to author the code.
	Location	Returns the location of the parent object declaration.
	Name	Gets or sets the name of the object.
	Parent	Gets the immediate parent object of a given object.
	Picture	Gets a picture automation object to be used as an icon in the user interface.
	Project	Gets the Project associated with the object.

Methods

	Name	Description
	GetEndPoint	Returns a TextPoint object that marks the end of the code element definition.
	GetStartPoint	Returns a TextPoint object that defines the beginning of the code element definition.
	IsSelf	Determines if the specified code element is the same as the parent code element.

Remarks

The VCCodeBase object provides access to the code element representing the base class list for the parent object, if it exists. You can use this object to retrieve the base class or classes that exist for the parent object.

Note

This does not represent the actual base class code element. It simply represents the base class names for the parent object.

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

Examples

This example displays the base classes for each class in the current project.

    Sub GetBases()
        Dim vcCM As VCCodeModel
        Dim vcClass As VCCodeClass
        Dim vcBase As VCCodeBase
        Dim i As Integer
        vcCM = DTE.Solution.Item(1).CodeModel
        For Each vcClass In vcCM.Classes
            For i = 1 To vcClass.Bases.Count
                vcBase = vcClass.Bases.Item(1)
                MsgBox(vcClass.Name + " derives from " + vcBase.Name)
            Next
        Next
    End Sub
