Public Interface VCCodeMap

Attributes: GuidAttribute TypeLibTypeAttribute

Examples

This example retrieves the first VCCodeMap object of the current solution and displays it in a message box. It assumes a default MFC project is open.

Sub GetFirstMap()  
    Dim vcCM As VCCodeModel  
    Dim vcMap As VCCodeMap  
    vcCM = DTE.Solution.Item(1).CodeModel  
    vcMap = vcCM.Maps.Item(1)  
    MsgBox(vcMap.DisplayName)  
End Sub

Remarks

The main purpose of the VCCodeMap object is to modify an existing map element. Modifications include adding and removing map entries and modifying the properties of existing map entries.

A map element is any code element beginning with a BEGIN_XXX_MAP macro and ending with a END_XXX_MAP macro. Some common examples are:

Message maps

Beginning with BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP
Event maps

Beginning with BEGIN_EVENT_MAP
Property maps

Beginning with BEGIN_PROPERTY_MAP
