Namespace:  EnvDTE80
Assembly:  EnvDTE80 (in EnvDTE80.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration

    Globals^ get ();
}
abstract Globals : Globals with get
function get Globals () : Globals

Property Value

Type: EnvDTE.Globals
A Globals object.

Remarks

Add-ins are available when the solution is loaded.

Globals are not necessarily associated with add-ins; they may also be associated with macros or any other automation client.

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 adds a global variable to an open solution and displays all the global variables in the 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)
    GlobalsExample(_applicationObject)
End Sub

Sub GlobalsExample(ByVal dte As DTE2)
    ' This add-in adds a global variable to a solution and
    ' displays it.
    ' Open a solution in 
    ' Visual Studio before running this example.
    Try
        Dim soln As Solution2 =  _
        CType(_applicationObject.Solution, Solution2)
        Dim solnName As String = _
        System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(soln.FullName)
        Dim globals As String = ""
        MsgBox("Adding global variable TempGlobal = ""TempValue""")
        soln.Globals.VariableValue("TempGlobal") = "TempValue"
        Dim names() As Object =  _
        CType(soln.Globals.VariableNames, Object())
        Dim name As String
        For Each name In names
            globals &= "    " & name & " = """ & _
            soln.Globals.VariableValue(name).ToString() & """" & vbCrLf
        Next
        MsgBox("Solution " & solnName & _
        " has the following global variables:" & _
        vbCrLf & vbCrLf & globals)
    Catch ex As System.Exception
        MsgBox(ex.ToString)
    End Try
End Sub

 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.
    GlobalsExample((DTE2)_applicationObject);
}

        MessageBox.Show
("Adding global variable TempGlobal = \"TempValue\"");
        soln.Globals["TempGlobal"] = "TempValue";
        object[] names = (object[])soln.Globals.VariableNames; 
        string globals = "";
        foreach (string name in names)
            globals += "    " + name + " = \"" 
+ soln.Globals[name].ToString() + "\"\n";
        MessageBox.Show("Solution " + solnName 
+ " has the following global variables:\n\n" + globals);
    }
    catch(SystemException ex)
