IVsHierarchyItem Interface

Definition

Important

This API is not CLS-compliant.

Contains instance property information for a single item in an IVsUIHierarchyWindow.

Remarks

An IVsHierarchyItem has an associated IVsHierarchyItemIdentity that defines the IVsHierarchy/item identifier or IVsHierarchy/item identifier pair that represents the item. This interface also lets you get properties like text for the items and to enumerate its child and parent items.

A single item in the Solution Explorer (for example, a C# project node) can actually be composed of two different IVsHierarchy implementations with two different item identifiers. As a specific example, the “solution” is an IVsHierarchy representing the “tree” of items in the solution, but the solution’s IVsHierarchy does not know about the content of projects. A specific C# project in the solution is also a separate IVsHierarchy. The node representing the project itself might be node #50 in the IVsHierarchy for the solution, and node VSITEMID_ROOT in the IVsHierarchy for the project. IVsHierarchyItemIdentity and IVsHierarchyItem bind together these two different IVsHierarchy and item identifiers into a single concept.

Properties

AreChildrenRealized

Indicates whether the child items of an IVsHierarchyItem have already been enumerated.

CanonicalName

Gets the canonical name of the item, corresponding to the GetCanonicalName(UInt32, String).

Children

Gets the child items of this IVsHierarchyItem.

HierarchyIdentity

Gets the identity that represents this item.

IsBold

Gets or sets whether this item should be rendered bold in an IVsUIHierarchyWindow.

IsCut

Gets or sets whether this item should be rendered as a cut item in an IVsUIHierarchyWindow.

IsDisposed

Determines if the item is disposed. Changes to this property are notified through INotifyPropertyChanged.PropertyChanged, which allows consumers to easily use weak event listeners through PropertyChangedEventManager.

(Inherited from ISupportDisposalNotification)
Parent

Gets the parent IVsHierarchyItem for this item.

Text

Gets the text caption for the item in the IVsUIHierarchyWindow, corresponding to the VSHPROPID_Caption property from GetProperty(UInt32, Int32, Object).
