CodeClass2.DocComment Property

  • Article

Gets or sets the document comment for the code class.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Property DocComment As String

string DocComment { get; set; }

property String^ DocComment {
    String^ get ();
    void set (String^ value);
}

abstract DocComment : string with get, set

function get DocComment () : String 
function set DocComment (value : String)

Property Value

Type: System.String
A string representing the document comment.

Remarks

The DocComment property returns the special documentation comment or attribute if there is one in the code class. If the language implementing the code model does not have a documentation comment mechanism, or if there is none associated with the code class, then DocComment returns an empty string.

Note

The values of code model elements such as classes, structs, functions, attributes, delegates, and so forth can be non-deterministic after making certain kinds of edits, meaning that their values cannot be relied upon to always remain the same. For more information, see the section Code Model Element Values Can Change in Discovering Code by Using the Code Model (Visual Basic).

Examples

[C#]

public void CodeClass2DocCommentExample(DTE2 dte2)
{
    // Before running this example, open a code document from a project
    // and place the insertion point within a class definition.
    try
    {   // Get the CodeClass2 at the insertion point.
        TextSelection sel = 
        (TextSelection)dte2.ActiveDocument.Selection;
        CodeClass2 cls = (CodeClass2)sel.ActivePoint.get_CodeElement(
            vsCMElement.vsCMElementClass);

        // Set the document comment for the CodeClass.
        cls.DocComment = "<doc>This is a DocComment\r\n</doc>";

    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
    }
}
