Catching files added to a project/solution

Howdy!

I've been trying to figure out how to receive notice when a file is added to a project to no avail. My goal is to run an operation on all new files as they are added, no matter what type of file it might be. I thought AdviseSolutionEvents might have the info I want, but it sounds like it only passes on info about new projects. Does anyone have any advice?

Many thanks,
Matt

Hai Matt,
Try this...


applicationObject = (_DTE)application;

EnvDTE.ProjectItemsEvents prjEvts = applicationObject.Events.SolutionItemsEvents;

prjEvts.ItemAdded += new _dispProjectItemsEvents_ItemAddedEventHandler(prjEvts_ItemAdded);




and then....


MessageBox.Show(ProjectItem.Name + " added");


Hope this helps...
