FileCodeModel.AddNamespace Method

Creates a new namespace code construct and inserts the code in the correct location.

Namespace:  EnvDTE
Assembly:  EnvDTE (in EnvDTE.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Function AddNamespace ( _
    Name As String, _
    Position As Object _
) As CodeNamespace
CodeNamespace AddNamespace(
    string Name,
    Object Position
)
CodeNamespace^ AddNamespace(
    String^ Name, 
    Object^ Position
)
abstract AddNamespace : 
        Name:string * 
        Position:Object -> CodeNamespace 
function AddNamespace(
    Name : String, 
    Position : Object
) : CodeNamespace

Parameters

  • Name
    Type: System.String
    Required. The name of the new namespace.
  • Position
    Type: System.Object
    Optional. Default = 0. The code element after which to add the new element. If the value is a CodeElement, then the new element is added immediately after it.
    If the value is a Long data type, then AddNamespace indicates the element after which to add the new element.
    Because collections begin their count at 1, passing 0 indicates that the new element should be placed at the beginning of the collection. A value of -1 means the element should be placed at the end.

Return Value

Type: EnvDTE.CodeNamespace
A CodeNamespace object.

Remarks

Visual C++ requires the colon-separated (::) format for its fully qualified type names. All other languages support the period-separated format.

The correctness of the arguments is determined by the language behind the code model.

Examples

Sub AddNamespaceExample(ByVal dte As DTE2)

    ' Before running this example, open a code document from a project.
    Try
        ' Create a new namespace.
        Dim fcm As FileCodeModel = _
            dte.ActiveDocument.ProjectItem.FileCodeModel
        fcm.AddNamespace("TestNamespace")
    Catch ex As Exception
        MsgBox(ex.Message)
    End Try

End Sub
public void AddNamespaceExample(DTE2 dte)
{
    // Before running this example, open a code document from 
    // a project.
    try
    {
        // Create a new namespace.
        FileCodeModel fcm = _
            dte.ActiveDocument.ProjectItem.FileCodeModel;
        fcm.AddNamespace("TestNamespace", -1);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
    }
}
