Public Function IsValidKind (pBuffer As IVsTextLines, ts As TextSpan(), bstrKind As String, ByRef pfIsValidKind As Integer) As Integer
Parameters
- pBuffer
- IVsTextLines
[in] An IVsTextLines object that represents the text buffer where the code snippet is to be inserted.
- ts
- TextSpan[]
[in] A TextSpan object that describes the location where the code snippet is to be inserted.
- bstrKind
- String
[in] A string that specifies the kind of code snippet that is to be inserted. See Remarks.
- pfIsValidKind
- Int32
[out] Non-zero (TRUE) if the code snippet can be inserted into the specified location based on its kind; zero (FALSE) if the code snippet cannot be inserted.
Returns
If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.
Remarks
COM Signature
From textmgr2.idl:
bool IVsExpansionClient::IsValidKind(
[in]IVsTextLines *pBuffer,
[in]TextSpan *ts,
[in]BSTR bstrKind
);
The bstrKind
parameter is a string that specifies the kinds of snippets to display, such as MethodBody
, Page
, and File
. The snippet kind can control in what context the snippet is inserted. For example, a snippet kind of MethodBody
should be inserted only in a method. See Code Element (Intellisense Code Snippets) for a list of all snippet kinds that are supported. It is possible for a code snippet to not have a kind associated with it in which case the bstrKind
parameter is an empty string.
