public static function AddExtension(
    element : ModelElement, 
    extension : ExtensionElement
) : ExtensionElement

Parameters

• element
  Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.ModelElement
  ModelElement to be extended

• extension
  Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.ExtensionElement
  The ExtensionElement to be added

Return Value

Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.ExtensionElement
The added extension

Remarks

Although attempts to add a duplicate extension type are caught here, there are other cases where extensions may clash by contributing duplicate properties or roles, for example when two extensions are added that inherit from a common base that defines IMS properties and/or roles. Such cases are detected by IMergeElements implementation on ModelElement, but not by this low-level API
