How do I get a model element name property without using reflection / TypeDescriptor

My seventh How do I is up.

Scenario

This is a simpler requirement, we need to obtain a model element name property. But instead of using reflection or the type descriptor class, we need to obtain it by using the "Is Element Name" domain property. The focus of this How do I tackles this scenario.

 

Interfaces and classes needed

 

Code snippet

    string name;

    DomainClassInfo.TryGetName(modelElement, out name);

 

    //Or

    string name = DomainClassInfo.GetName(modelElement);

 

Assemblies needed

  • Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.Sdk

 

Stay tuned,

Pablo
