I am building a visual studio 2010 Add-in for internal use in my company. I would like to customize the main window caption to display the name of the current start up project. I can set the caption of the main window with the following code:
DTE d = GlobalClass.dte2 as DTE;
IntPtr hWnd = new System.IntPtr(d.MainWindow.HWnd);
if (d.Solution.SolutionBuild.StartupProjects != null)
{
object[] sStartUpProject = (object[])d.Solution.SolutionBuild.StartupProjects;
string Caption = d.MainWindow.Caption + "Current Project: " + (string)sStartUpProject[0];
SendMessage(hWnd, WM_SETTEXT, new IntPtr(0), Caption);
}
I can fire this code whenever a window is created or activated, but this does not update the Caption if the user changes the startup project in the solution explorer (or my add-in) and doesn't move to another window in Visual Studio. I would like the caption to update as soon as the change was made.
