在哪里可以找到GetSourceSchemaTypes例程的定义？

Question

I'm digging deeper into Entity Framework Templating and want to find out more about the GetSourceSchemaTypes routine, used here as an example

foreach (EntityType entity in GetSourceSchemaTypes<EntityType>().OrderBy(e => e.Name))
{
}

It appears to be part of the Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextTemplating namespace but I can't find that on MSDN.

I'm looking for something specific but the answer may be revealed in the definition of this routine.

thanks

Answer 1

GetSourceSchemaTypes ( Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextTemplating namespace) can be found in the Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextTemplating assembly (Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextTemplating.dll) delivered with the Visual Studio SDK

You can use a .NET decompiler to have a look at the code.

ILSpy is free and works fine: http://ilspy.net/

If you have any difficulty to locate the Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextTemplating assembly, you can have a look at this question: Cannot find Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextTemplating assembly :)

For example, if you use Visual Studio 2012 the assembly may be here:

C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\\VSSDK\\VisualStudioIntegration\\Common\\Assemblies\\v4.0

PS: I don't understand why this answer is downvoted, there is nothing wrong with decompiling.. It's a nice tool to improve understanding of something..
