I managed to get CreateToolWindow working without using the shim classes and without having place it in a try{}catch{} block to do it twice. My ToolWindow's...
After further experimentation it turns out that while the tool window's dock position *is* remembered, the visibility state is often not remembered. This...
It looks strange. If I call Assembly.GetExecutingAsembly from an application, I correctly get the assembly that is running. So I can reflect into it. Great!...
Matt, Definitely an interesting idea and worth investigating. Now, for me at least, the most important question is, what was your process of thinking to come...
Well, my processes generally tend to be non-linear, but I can summarize here. :) Basically, I wanted to use CreateToolWindow, so I googled for it (as usual)....

Matt, Cool work! I'm not that familiar with reflector. Could you give a sample of how you used it in the diagnosis of the problem? Matthew ... From:...
It's tough to describe my style. I've been debugging, decompiling and disassembling in various forms for over 15 years. :) Basically, if you get an exception...
Sort of cool. I'm familiar with using exception handling and I've done some work with system.reflection. So, I guess I'll have to wait and see if I need to...
I'm doing my first real VS.NET add-in. I've got several questions. First of all, the auto-generated add-in code creates a menu item during the setup phase of...
I have to say, I'm VERY confused by Microsoft's naming conventions for the command, commandbar, etc stuff. I think it's simply a matter of semantics and I'm...
Hi Pete, Welcome to the forum. In short: - You can add temporary commandbars, toolbars and buttons using the old VB6 style - You can add them using the new...
Hi all, Not sure if this has been discussed here before but I have a question: I have a toolwindow which needs to be notified when the read-only status of the...
Thanks, I'll search through the forum. I was hoping someone could point me to a faq or a web page with a summation of it so I don't have to go digging so much....
If your intention is to monitor checkins/checkouts (and not specifically the read only status), you can write an SSPI plugin. The docs for SSPI are supposedly...
I have not looked at VSIP closely (it seemed too low level for me) for me but the pulling option seems a simpler solution if everything else fails. Carlos ...
Hi all, As you probably know by now, the extensibility model of VSNET 2002/2003 is very good, and I have been seen the one of Whidbey (next version of VS.Net) ...
Carlos, This is an EXCELLENT idea. The list is very useful, but it would be terrific to have a central repository for issues and resolutions. I would like to...
Hi Matthew, I have some space in a server which I am willing to offer to host this project. Just let me know then I'll give you access to it. It supports ...
Hi, To host this idea, until we find something better if needed, I have created a folder "VS.NET automation issues" in the Files section. Inside, I have posted...

From my add-in, I'd like to get the namespace and class heirarchy available from the current project. I basically want to collect all the data that the Object...
You should look into the "Code Model" for this. It's unfortunately a bit inconsistent from language to language, but gives you an abstract model of the code...
