Microsoft.VisualStudio.Extensibility Namespace

Describes a context-based activation rule.

The configuration of a brokered service implementation.

Provides functionality for accessing client context JSON blob in a structured method.

Shell client context keys.

An attribute used to mark that a property is evaluated at compile time and represents the configuration of an IVisualStudioContributionClass. Alternatively it is used on types that implement IVisualStudioContributionProperty and are used to define static properties marked with VisualStudioContributionAttribute, which are also evaluated at compile time. This is used by the VisualStudio.Extensibility libraries for documentation purposes and it's not meant to be used directly by extenders.

Provides the surface area for configuration and extension state management.

Constructs services registered in an extension based on the descriptors in metadata. This default factory uses either the service moniker name as the type name, or type information from ServiceFactoryRegistrationAttribute attribute and creates an instance using dependency injection (TBD) and uses JSON serialization.

Constructs services registered in an extension based on the descriptors in metadata. This default factory uses either the service moniker name as the type name, or type information from ServiceFactoryRegistrationAttribute attribute and creates an instance using dependency injection and uses MessagePack serialization.

Provides functionality for extending Visual Studio through brokered services for Language Services.

Extension methods for DocumentSnapshot objects.

Describes an applicability condition based on the type or path of a document.

Provides the surface area for document management.

VisualStudio.Extensibility experimental features diagnostic codes.

Provides functionality for extending Visual Studio through brokered services.

Helper extension methods.

Base class for an extension that can host multiple service instances.

The configuration of an Extension class.

Contains additional information about an extension part contract, specifically around wrapping type.

Base class for an extension that can host multiple service instances. This class is intended for internal use only, extension developers should instead inherit from Microsoft.VisualStudio.Extensibility.Extension.

Descriptive information about the extension.

Extension methods for IClientContext.

Base class for services or parts to be returned from service factories.

An attribute used to mark an interface or a class extending ExtensionPart.

A base service factory class for extension parts that allow customization of the service descriptor.

Well-known ImageMoniker values for images supplied with the Visual Studio image catalog.

Describes a mapping from service moniker to internal service factory type and extension part instance type.

A record for a brokered service moniker.

Provides the surface area for settings.

An exception that indicates snapshot version is not available to operate on.

An attribute used to contribute VisualStudio.Extensibility components from the extension and allow Visual Studio to consume them. This attribute can be applied to types that extend an abstract class which implements IVisualStudioContributionClass or on properties of a type that implements IVisualStudioContributionProperty.

Provides functionality for extending Visual Studio through brokered services.

Editor provided extension methods for acquiring VS extensibility points.

Provides functionality for extending Visual Studio workspaces.

Container for client context at the time of a command invocation.

Client context categories to be used in ClientContexts.

Client context keys to be used in ClientContext(ClientContextKey, String).

Image monikers for images supplied by the extension or by the Visual Studio image catalog.

Project capability to be used in SolutionHasProjectCapability(ProjectCapability).

Container for client context at the time of a command invocation.

Container for client context at the time of a command invocation.

Constructs services registered in an extension based on the descriptors in metadata.

Extenders can extend types implementing IVisualStudioContributionClass and mark their class with VisualStudioContributionAttribute to allow it to be consumed by Visual Studio. This interface is meant to be implemented by abstract classes provided by the VisualStudio.Extensibility libraries, extenders shouldn't implement this interface directly.

Types implementing IVisualStudioContributionProperty can be used to create static properties marked with VisualStudioContributionAttribute which allows them to define metadata for the extension that is consumed by Visual Studio. This interface is meant to be implemented by types provided by the VisualStudio.Extensibility libraries, extenders shouldn't implement this interace directly.

The intended audience for a brokered service registered via BrokeredServiceConfiguration.

Solution state values to be used in SolutionState(SolutionState).

Architectures supported by Visual Studio.

A delegate that creates new instances of a brokered service that is proffered via ProfferService.
