Code Snippet: Ensuring a file is in a project

  • Artigo

Every couple of weeks, I'll get a question about getting an arbitrary file on disk into a project in VS without asking VS to open in a document window directly. It seems to be pretty hard to find information for (when I needed to do it, it took a few email threads with various other teams to figure it out), so here's a code snippet I use for this. It works by adding the file to the miscellaneous files project (if it isn't already in another project) and then returning the hierarchy/itemid for the file, which can be used with other methods involving the shell, opening documents, locking documents, etc.

///
<summary>

///
If the given file isn't in a project, put it in the miscellaneous files project, and return

///
the project/itemid of the file.

///
</summary>

///
<returns>hresult (failure code)</returns>

// Before we can take a lock, we need to make sure the given doc data is in a project.

    }
