Public Property EditorFactoryNotify As Boolean

Property Value

Boolean

true if the EditorFactoryNotify registry value should be created, otherwise false (the default).

Examples

The following example associates the .myext file extension with the GUID of the Test Editor, so that the project system opens the file with that editor:

[ProvideEditorExtensionAttribute(typeof(TestEditorFactory), ".myext", 32,  
                    ProjectGuid = "{A2FE74E1-B743-11d0-AE1A-00A0C90FFFC3}",  
                    NameResourceID = 105,  
                    DefaultName = "Test Editor",  
                    EditorFactoryNotify = true)]]

Remarks

If this property is set to true, the Projects\<ProjectGUID>\Extensions\<ExtensionString>\EditorFactoryNotify value points to the editor factory that should handle the file. The constructor ProvideEditorExtensionAttribute sets the value to false by default.
