Copy 
public:
ProvideObjectAttribute(
	Type^ objectType
)

Parameters

objectType
Type: System::Type^

The type of object that the VSPackage can create. This type can have any scoping (public, internal, etc.) but must have a public constructor that takes no arguments.

Any object proffered via the ProvideObjectAttribute class must have a public constructor. The constructor can be overloaded, but it must have at least one implementation that takes no arguments.

The C# language automatically appends the word "Attribute" to the name of any attribute class. In C# code, refer to this attribute as ProvideObject.

The following C# code applies the ProvideObject attribute to a VSPackage named MyVSPackage.

Copy 
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell;
using MSVSIP = Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell;
[MSVSIP.ProvideObject(typeof(MyObject))]
public class MyVSPackage : MSVSIP. Package {}
