Remarks

A large part of the functionality of this object is provided by the Visual Studio CodeEnum object.

See How to: Compile Example Code for Visual C++ Code Model Extensibility for information on how to compile and run this sample.

Examples

This example displays the variables used by the first enumeration of the CAboutDlg class. It assumes a CAboutDlg class exists and has enumerations.

Sub GetEnums()
    Dim vcCM As VCCodeModel
    Dim vcEnum As VCCodeEnum
    Dim vcVariable As VCCodeVariable
    vcCM = DTE.Solution.Item(1).CodeModel
    vcEnum = vcCM.Classes.Item("CAboutDlg").Enums.Item(1)
    For Each vcVariable In vcEnum.Members
        MsgBox(vcVariable.DisplayName)
    Next
End Sub
