Examples

 Sub IsSharedExample(ByVal dte As DTE2)  

    ' Before running this example, open a code document from a project  
    ' and place the insertion point inside a function.

            vsCMElement.vsCMElementFunction), CodeFunction)  

        If fun.IsShared Then  
            MsgBox(fun.Name & " is an instance method.")  
        Else  
            MsgBox(fun.Name & " is not an instance method.")

    // and place the insertion point inside a function.  
    try

        TextSelection sel =   
            (TextSelection)dte.ActiveDocument.Selection;

        if (fun.IsShared)  
            MessageBox.Show(fun.Name + " is an instance method.");  
        else  
            MessageBox.Show(fun.Name + " is not an instance method.");

    catch (Exception ex)  
    {  
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);  
    }  
}  

Remarks

IsShared returns or sets whether the method is associated with a class or with instances of a class. Note that setting this might yield language-dependent errors. Although IsShared returns successfully, it does not mean the resulting code change compiles successfully.

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).
