I wanted to get the full file path when the caret in visual studio is at object Creation or referring a method of some other class.
Something like
Class CurrentClass
{
Class2 object1=new Class2();
object1.method1();
}
Can I get the complete file path like c:\ProjectLocation\Class2.cs.
When I get this line in visual studio.
Class2 object1=new Class2();
You can resolve the active expression (object creation expression, type reference expression, method reference expression), and get the file name with resolved declaration, using code like this:
Expression activeExpression = CodeRush.Source.Active as Expression;
if (activeExpression!= null)
{
IElement declaration = activeExpression.Resolve(new SourceTreeResolver());
if (declaration != null)
{
string fileName = declaration.FirstFile.Name;
// use the fileName...
}
}
