Remarks

With the introduction of blueprints and partial classes, there may be more than one CodeClass object per class that gets compiled. There is one instance of a CodeClass object for each class contained in a file. The CodeClass2 object can determine if it represents a partial or complete class, and whether it is implemented as an XML blueprint or as code. Edits or additions to the CodeClass2 object may only be written into this portion (and file) of the class.

Examples

[Visual Basic]

' Macro code.
Sub CodeClass2Example()
    ' Iterates through the main class and
    ' lists its parts.
    Dim sel As TextSelection
    Dim myClass1 As EnvDTE80.CodeClass2
    Dim classPart As EnvDTE80.CodeClass2

    sel = applicationObject.ActiveDocument.Selection
    myClass1 = sel.ActivePoint.CodeElement _
    (vsCMElement.vsCMElementClass)
    If myClass1.ClassKind = _
    vsCMClassKind.vsCMClassKindMainClass Then
        For Each classPart In myClass1.Collection
            MsgBox(classPart.Name)
        Next
    End If
End Sub
