CodeClass2::EndPoint Property

 

Gets the edit point that is the location of the end of the code class.

Namespace:   EnvDTE80
Assembly:  EnvDTE80 (in EnvDTE80.dll)

property TextPoint^ EndPoint {
	TextPoint^ get();
}

Property Value

Type: EnvDTE::TextPoint^

A TextPoint object.

The edit point location is immediately after the last character of the code element (including any semicolon, terminating syntax, or separating syntax). Fetching the property implicitly opens the source file if it can be opened. Some languages, however, cannot open arbitrary files on the disk and can only open files in a currently open solution.

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. For more information, see the section Code Model Element Values Can Change in Discovering Code by Using the Code Model (Visual Basic).
