Syntax

'Declaration
ReadOnly Property Children As CodeElements
    Get

CodeElements Children { get; }

property CodeElements^ Children {
    CodeElements^ get ();
}

abstract Children : CodeElements

function get Children () : CodeElements

Property Value

Type: EnvDTE.CodeElements
A CodeElements collection.

Remarks

If an object has no children, then Nothing or nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) is returned.

Children is used primarily by Visual C++. Children returns every object returnable from a code element.

To iterate through the members of a namespace or type (class, struct, interface, and so forth), you must query interface (QI) or cast the CodeElement to a CodeNamespace and then use the Members property.

Children returns the collection of all related CodeElement objects that can be referenced via this code element.

The Children property may return Nothing or nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) depending on the object and the language. There is no requirement to support this in Visual Studio.
