CodeEvent.EndPoint Property

  • Article

Gets the location in the source file marked as an end of the code event element.

Namespace:  EnvDTE80
Assembly:  EnvDTE80 (in EnvDTE80.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
ReadOnly Property EndPoint As TextPoint

TextPoint EndPoint { get; }

property TextPoint^ EndPoint {
    TextPoint^ get ();
}

abstract EndPoint : TextPoint with get

function get EndPoint () : TextPoint

Property Value

Type: EnvDTE.TextPoint
A TextPoint object.

Remarks

The edit point location is immediately after the last character of the code event element (including any semicolon, terminating syntax, or separating syntax). Getting the property implicitly opens the source file if it can be opened. Some languages, however, cannot open arbitrary files on the disk and can only open files in currently open solution.

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).

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to use the EndPoint property.

To test this property:

  1. Open the target project and select the code event element by placing the cursor on the event object.

  2. Run the add-in.

public static void EndPoint(EnvDTE80.DTE2 dte)
{
    TextSelection objTextSel;
    EnvDTE80.CodeEvent codeEvent;
    objTextSel = (TextSelection)dte.ActiveDocument.Selection;
    codeEvent = (EnvDTE80.CodeEvent)objTextSel.ActivePoint.get_CodeElement(vsCMElement.vsCMElementEvent);
    
    MessageBox.Show("\nEnd point column number: " +
                    codeEvent.EndPoint.DisplayColumn, "Testing EndPoint Property");
}
