Finding Project Directory in UserControl

[mooman_fl]

Ok... here is a tough one. I need my usercontrol to be able to determine the current project directory for the project it is added to.

 

After some searching I have come up with the EnvDTE.... but all attempts to use this in my control have failed. The only real examples I can seem to find are geared towards the Macro Editor.

 

I may be barking up the wrong tree though. I need the project directory, not the application directory.

I think you can just use Application.AppPath

or application.startuppath

I think you can just use Application.AppPath

or application.startuppath

Those only work at runtime, and only on the executables compile directory. I want somthing that will be used at designtime in a control dropped on the form before a compile is done on the application. Using either of those suggestions would take you to the directory of the VS.NET executable. (In other words I had already tried that. LOL)

 

I need something that will take me to the top level of the project directory for the project the control has been added to.
