envdte

I am using EnvDTE to generate some code in my latest project.

I have a reference to a CodeClass-Object for a given C#-Class but now I wanted to loop through all of its members (in codeClass.Members) and check their types.

However I can't manage to retrieve the type of the given member from the CodeElement-Object that I get when looping through codeClass.Members.

How can I retrieve the type (int, string etc.)?

PS: Reflection is not an option for my usecase.

Dynamic Type to do away with Reflection

The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language. One thing I’ve been doing a lot with it is to remove explicit Reflection code that’s often necessary when you ‘dynamically’ need to walk and object hierarchy. In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
