 ByRef custom As Array) Implements IDTExtensibility2.OnConnection
    _applicationObject = CType(application, DTE2)
    _addInInstance = CType(addInInst, AddIn)
    ProjectsExample(_applicationObject)
End Sub

Sub ProjectsExample(ByVal dte As DTE2)
    ' This add-in displays the number of projects
    ' in a solution.
    ' Open a solution in Visual Studio before 
    ' running this example.
    Try
        Dim soln As Solution2 = CType(_applicationObject.Solution, _
        Solution2)
        Dim solnName As String = _

        MsgBox("Solution " & solnName & _
        " has " & soln.Projects.Count.ToString() & " projects")
    Catch ex As System.Exception

    _addInInstance = (AddIn)addInInst;
    // Pass the applicationObject member variable to the code example.
    ProjectExample((DTE2)_applicationObject);
}
public void ProjectExample(DTE2 dte)
