Question

I’m creating an Internet Explorer plugin using C#. I’ve been following a tutorial where the code imports a couple of classes that I don’t have available, namely:

using System.Windows;
using SHDocVw;

I realise I need to add the relevant components to my project but I’m not sure how to find the components that contain the classes. Perhaps there is a search somewhere?

Answer 1

Both of those examples are Namespaces that are located in assemblies that need to be reference. Luckily, adding those references are quite simple:

For System.Windows:

1. Right click your project.
2. Select “Add Reference…”
3. Select the “.NET” tab and find the System.Windows assembly.
4. Double click to add.

For SHDocVw:

1. Right click your project.
2. Select “Add Reference…”
3. Select the “Browse” tab.
4. Navigate to C:\Windows\System32
5. Find SHDocVw.dll
6. Double click to add.
