In my extension I want to add metadata to project items. When my extension creates a new file and adds it to a project I want to attach a some data to it so that I can query it later and find all the files I added from my extension. I found this post from 2006 stating this is not possible using DTE but there is a workaround.

Before I go this route and try this workaround I just want to check if anyone knows of a better way? Hopefully after 9 years there is a better way?
Thanks,
Frank
