[<System.Runtime.InteropServices.TypeLibFunc(1024)>]
abstract member GetStartPoint : EnvDTE.vsCMPart -> EnvDTE.TextPoint
Public Function GetStartPoint (Optional Part As vsCMPart = EnvDTE.vsCMPart.vsCMPartWholeWithAttributes) As TextPoint

Parameters

Part
vsCMPart

Examples

Before running this example, load a project with a class and insert the following line along with the example code. After both the line and the example code are added, click the Delegate line to place the insertion point there, and then run the example.

[VisualBasic]

Delegate Sub MySubDelegate(ByVal x As Integer)  

[C#]

public delegate void MySubDelegate(int x);  

[VisualBasic]

Public Sub getStartEndPointExample(ByVal dte As DTE2)  
    Try  
        ' Retrieve the CodeClass at the insertion point.  
        Dim sel As TextSelection = _  
          CType(dte.ActiveDocument.Selection, TextSelection)  
        Dim del As CodeDelegate2 = _  
          CType(sel.ActivePoint.CodeElement( _  
          vsCMElement.vsCMElementDelegate), CodeDelegate2)  
        Dim sb As New System.Text.StringBuilder  

        ' Get the start and endpoint offsest for the delegate.  
        sb.AppendLine("Startpoint: " & _  
          del.GetStartPoint(vsCMPart.vsCMPartBody) _  
          .LineCharOffset.ToString)  
        sb.AppendLine("Endpoint: " & _  
          del.GetEndPoint(vsCMPart.vsCMPartBody) _  
          .LineCharOffset.ToString)  
        MessageBox.Show(sb.ToString)  
    Catch ex As System.Exception  
        MsgBox(ex.ToString)  
    End Try  
End Sub  

Remarks

The TextPoint object represents the beginning of the delegate definition. The Part parameter defines the portion of the delegate to return.

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).
