Sub AddMethod()  
    Dim vcCM As VCCodeModel  
    Dim classElement As VCCodeClass  
    Dim type As String  
    vcCM = DTE.Solution.Item(1).CodeModel  
    classElement = vcCM.Classes.Item(1)  
    type = "int"  
    If (vcCM.ValidateMember("Method1", vsCMElement.vsCMElementFunction, type)) Then  
        classElement.AddFunction("Method1", vsCMFunction.vsCMFunctionFunction, type)  
    End If
