CodeNamespace.Name Property

Sets or gets the name of the CodeNamespace object.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Default Property Name As String
string this { get; set; }
property String^ default {
    String^ get ();
    void set (String^ value);
}
abstract Name : string with get, set
function get Name () : String
function set Name (value : String)

Property Value

Type: System.String
A string representing the name of the CodeNamespace.

Remarks

Name returns the name specified in code for the namespace declaration and FullName represents the compiler name.

For example, given:

Namespace A

  Namespace B.Inner

End Namespace

End Namespace

The outer namespace returns .Name = A and the inner namespace returns .Name = B.Inner.

FullName returns the full name of the namespace including the names of all parent namespaces. For example, the .FullName value returned for the inner namespace would be A.B.Inner. If you are using Visual Basic or Visual C# and a root namespace named "Outer" exists, then .FullName would return Outer.A.B.Inner.

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).
