Applies to | Classes providing VSPackages by implementing IVsPackage, Package. |
Repeatable | No |
Required attributes | |
Invalid attributes | None |
Apply this attribute to a Package-derived class or a class that implements IVsPackage that is required to enable support for users to drag data objects of this format, provided by the class, onto the Toolbox. This implementing class must handle the drop notifications itself.
This attribute is only used for registration purposes, and does not affect how code behaves at runtime.
Depending on the arguments specified in its constructor, this attribute can indicate that a VSPackage does not provide any Toolbox items. If the attribute ProvideToolboxFormatAttribute is added to a class to indicate that it provides Toolbox items, one or more instances of ProvideToolboxFormatAttribute must also be added.
This attribute uses ProvideToolboxFormatAttribute to register a VSPackage as providing Toolbox items of a given format.
If this attribute specifies that Toolbox items are provided, the VSPackage must handle the ToolboxInitialized and ToolboxUpgraded events.
Any VSPackage using this attribute must provide a handler for the ToolboxInitialized and ToolboxUpgraded events.
In the example below, the attributes applied to the class MyPackage indicates that it supports version 1 of Toolbox items of with two clipboard formats "CF_XMLCODE" and "InPlaceMenuEditorMenu".
[DefaultRegistryRoot("Software\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\8.0")]
[ProvideToolboxItems(true, 1)]
[ProvideToolboxFormat("CF_XMLCODE")]
[ProvideToolboxFormat("InPlaceMenuEditorMenu")]
[Guid("XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX")]
internal sealed class MyPackage : Package
