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

Syntax

'Declaration
ReadOnly Property HighPriorityAttributes As ContextAttributes

'Usage
Dim instance As ContextAttributes 
Dim value As ContextAttributes 

value = instance.HighPriorityAttributes

ContextAttributes HighPriorityAttributes { get; }

property ContextAttributes^ HighPriorityAttributes {
    ContextAttributes^ get ();
}

function get HighPriorityAttributes () : ContextAttributes

Property Value

Type: EnvDTE.ContextAttributes
A ContextAttributes collection.

Remarks

There is only one instance of this attributes collection. It is available only from the ContextAttributes collection. If the ContextAttributes collection is for a window, then HighPriorityAttributes returns nothing.

These attributes are always in effect, and they are the highest in the context bag precedence, resulting in matching topics going to the top of their respective categories.

Examples

    Sub HighPriorityAttributesExample()
        Dim cas As EnvDTE.ContextAttributes
        Dim ca As EnvDTE.ContextAttribute

        Try
            cas = DTE.ContextAttributes
            ' List all regular and high priority attributes.
            ListAttr(ca, cas)
            ' Add a new F1 keyword to the global high priority 
            ' attributes collection.
            cas.HighPriorityAttributes.Add("NewAttribute", _
            "NewF1Keyword", vsContextAttributeType. _

            ListAttr(ca, cas)
