Property Value

Type: EnvDTE::DTE^

A DTE object.

In Visual Studio, the DTE object is the root of the automation model, which other object models often call "Application".

System_CAPS_noteNote

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.

The following example demonstrates how to use the DTE property.

C#
Copy 
public static void DTE(EnvDTE80.DTE2 dte)
{
    TextSelection objTextSel;
    EnvDTE80.CodeEvent codeEvent;
    objTextSel = (TextSelection)dte.ActiveDocument.Selection;
    codeEvent = (EnvDTE80.CodeEvent)objTextSel.ActivePoint.get_CodeElement(vsCMElement.vsCMElementEvent);

    MessageBox.Show("\nEdition of the environment: " +
                    codeEvent.DTE.Name, "Testing CodeEvent");
}
