If you have a reference to EnvDTE, you can use dte.Solution and dte.Solution.SolutionBuild.ActiveConfiguration.

thanks for answer, but i get crash with exception(Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID), after googling i found that it should solution be in x86. Is it so ? – zdebyman Oct 26 '12 at 08:28
A VS Package must be compiled as x86. Visual Studio is 32-bit only. – Simon Mourier Oct 26 '12 at 08:34
And for those looking on how to get a reference to the `DTE`, call the `GetService()` method as such: `DTE dte = (DTE)GetService(typeof(DTE));`. – Dave Clemmer Jan 22 '13 at 23:32
