Parameters

  • Name
    Type: System.String
    Required. Specifies the name (in quotes or angle brackets) of the file being included.
  • Value
    Type: System.String
    Optional. The text of the macro's definition.
  • Position
    Type: System.Object
    Required. Default = 0. The code element after which to add the new element. If the value is a CodeElement, then the new element is added immediately after it.
    Because collections begin their count at one, passing 0 indicates that the new element should be placed at the beginning of the collection. A value of -1 means the element should be placed at the end.

A VCCodeMacro object.
