The CodeType type exposes the following members.

Properties

  Name Description
Public property Access Sets or gets the access attributes of this item.
Public property Attributes Gets a collection of all attributes for the parent object.
Public property Bases Gets a collection of classes from which this item derives.
Public property Children Gets a collection of objects contained within this CodeType.
Public property Collection Gets the collection containing the CodeType object supporting this property.
Public property Comment Gets or sets the comment associated with the CodeType.
Public property DerivedTypes Gets a collection of objects derived from this CodeType object. This property is not implemented in Visual C#.
Public property DocComment Gets or sets the document comment for the CodeType element.
Public property DTE Gets the top-level extensibility object.
Public property EndPoint Gets the edit point that is the location of the end of the code item.
Public property Extender Returns the requested Extender object if it is available for this object. This property is not implemented in Visual C#.
Public property ExtenderCATID Gets the Extender category ID (CATID) for the object. This property is not implemented in Visual C#.
Public property ExtenderNames Gets a list of available Extenders for the object. This property is not implemented in Visual C#.
Public property FullName Gets the full path and name of the object's file.
Public property InfoLocation Gets the capabilities of the code model object.
Public property IsCodeType Gets whether a CodeType object can be obtained from this object.
Public property IsDerivedFrom Returns whether an CodeType object has another object as a base.
Public property Kind Gets an enumeration indicating the type of object.
Public property Language Gets the programming language used to author the code.
Public property Members Gets a collection of items contained by this CodeType element.
Public property Name Sets or gets the name of the CodeType object.
Public property Namespace Gets an object defining the parent namespace.
Public property Parent Gets the immediate parent object of a CodeType object.
Public property ProjectItem Gets the ProjectItem object associated with the CodeType object.
Public property StartPoint Gets a TextPoint object that defines the beginning of the code item.

Methods

  Name Description
Public method AddAttribute Creates a new attribute code construct and inserts the code in the correct location.
Public method AddBase Adds an item to the list of inherited objects.
Public method GetEndPoint Gets a TextPoint object that marks the end of the code element definition.
Public method GetStartPoint Gets a TextPoint object that defines the beginning of the code element definition.
Public method RemoveBase Removes an object from the list of bases.
Public method RemoveMember Removes a member code construct.

Remarks

CodeType is implemented by objects that implement the CodeClass, CodeStruct, CodeInterface, CodeEnum, or CodeDelegate. You can determine if a CodeElement implements CodeType with CodeElement.IsCodeType.

Note

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).
