Get Saved Event Visual Studio DTE












0














I'm using COM DTE in order to make an application where, when a document in a Visual Studio Solution is saved, a certain action is executed. For instance if a document in the solution is saved, a new compilation is triggered.



I'm using C++ but the only documentation that I was able to find out is written C# [DTE events][https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/envdte.events?view=visualstudiosdk-2017].



I tried several methods of DTE objects, but I was not able to find out the event that is triggered when a document is saved, for example using [DocumentEvents][https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/envdte.events.documentevents?view=visualstudiosdk-2017] (I omit error checking for simplicity):



    TComPtr<EnvDTE::Events> events;
DTE->get_Events(&events);

TComPtr<EnvDTE::_DocumentEvents> docsEvents;
TComPtr<EnvDTE::Document> doc;
events->get_DocumentEvents(doc, &docsEvents);


Then I'm blocked at docsEvents, that I expected that gives me the events to control (connecting them to handlers, using __hook for instance).



I was therefore wondering what was the correct call sequence to access the events of the documents in the solution (especially the one that is launched when a document of the solution is saved) (the documentation in C++ is relatively poor)
