Namespace:  EnvDTE90
Assembly:  EnvDTE90 (in EnvDTE90.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Function AddFromFile ( _
    FileName As String, _
    Exclusive As Boolean _
) As Project
Project AddFromFile(
    string FileName,
    bool Exclusive
)
Project^ AddFromFile(
    [InAttribute] String^ FileName, 
    [InAttribute] bool Exclusive
)
abstract AddFromFile : 
        FileName:string * 
        Exclusive:bool -> Project
function AddFromFile(
    FileName : String, 
    Exclusive : boolean
) : Project

Parameters

  • FileName
    Type: System.String

    Required. The full path and file name of the project file.

  • Exclusive
    Type: System.Boolean

    Optional. Indicates whether the project loads in the current solution or its own solution; true if the current solution is closed and the project is added to a new solution, false if the project is added to the existing, open solution.

Return Value

Type: EnvDTE.Project
A Project object.

Remarks

You can use the LaunchWizard method rather than AddFromFile to execute a wizard if you want to suppress its user interface (UI) during execution. LaunchWizard has a parameter that allows you to disable the UI.
