Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.Shell Namespace

  • Article

The Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.Shell namespace provides classes for the Domain-Specific Language Designer shell. The shell provides an interface to various functions and services through Visual Studio.

You can use the Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.Shell namespace to customize the look of the designer or generated designer for your domain-specific language. For example, you might want to add new commands to menus or create new tabs that display information specific to your project.
