Abstract:
Visual Studio includes a programmable, project-neutral object model that provides access to the underlying components and events of the integrated development environment (IDE). This "general extensibility" model has components that represent solutions, projects, tool windows, code editors, debuggers, code objects, documents, and events. This general extensibility model is discussed in Extending the Visual Studio Environment.
