Public ReadOnly Property AutoReferenced As Boolean

Property Value

A boolean value indicating whether the reference is auto-referenced.

Attributes

DispIdAttribute

Examples

This example iterates through references in an open Visual Basic or Visual C# project. It then determines whether they are auto reference or not. To run this example as an add-in, see How to: Compile and Run the Automation Object Model Code Examples.

Imports VSLangProj  
Imports VSLangProj2

    applicationObject = CType(application, DTE2)  
    addInInstance = CType(addInInst, AddIn)  
    DisplayAutoReferenced(applicationObject)  
End Sub  
Public Sub DisplayAutoReferenced(ByVal dte As DTE2)  
    ' The first project is a Visual Basic or C# project.

    DisplayAutoReferenced(((DTE2)applicationObject));  
}  
public void DisplayAutoReferenced(DTE2 dte)  
{  
    // The first project is a Visual Basic or C# project.  
    VSProject2 aProject =  
((VSProject2)(applicationObject.Solution.Projects.Item(1).Object));  
    Reference3 aRef = null;  
    string refStr = null;  
    refStr = "";  
    foreach (VSLangProj80.Reference3 temp in aProject.References)  
    {  
        aRef = temp;  
        refStr += (aRef.Name + " has an AutoReferenced value of : "   
+ aRef.AutoReferenced.ToString() + "\n" + "\n");  
    }  
    MessageBox.Show(refStr);  
}  

Remarks

Some references are automatically used by the compiler. For example, Visual Basic projects automatically reference MSCORLIB.dll and Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll.
