Remarks

The VCLanguageManager object allows validation of various code elements in a C++ source file, such as variable names, qualified names, C++ source file names, and so on.

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 validates the name of a possible C++ source file. This sample assumes that a file, MyFile.cpp, exists in the current solution directory.

Sub ValidateFileName()
    Dim vcCM as VCCodeModel
    vcCM = DTE.Solution.Item(1).CodeModel
    if(DTE.VCLanguageManager.ValidateFileName("MyFile.cpp")) Then
        DTE.Solution.Item(1).ProjectItems.AddFromFile("MyFile.cpp")
End Sub
