What problem does it solve?

React to lifecycle changes of solutions and projects within Visual Studio extensions, enabling responsive initialization and cleanup as solutions open, close, or projects are added/removed.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Detect solution open/close/load and project add/remove events across out-of-process VisualStudio.Extensibility, in-process VSIX Community Toolkit, and in-process VSSDK.
  • Subscribe to both solution-level and project-level events, including background load completion to ensure all projects are ready before processing.
  • Use the recommended patterns for activation, event subscription, and safe threading to build robust extension behavior.

Quick Start

Initialize your extension package and subscribe to a solution events listener to begin handling lifecycle events.
