        ppszText:string byref * 
        piLength:int byref -> int 
function Read(
    ppszText : String, 
    piLength : int
) : int

Parameters

  • ppszText
    Type: System.String%
    [out] Range of the text buffer to read.
  • piLength
    Type: System.Int32%
    [out] Length of text to read from the buffer.

Return Value

Type: System.Int32

Remarks

COM Signature

From textmgr.idl:

HRESULT IVsTextScanner::Read(
   [out] WCHAR **ppszText,
   [out] long *piLength
);

The parameter piLength is an integer value for the length of text pointed to by ppszText. If the value is zero, there is no more text.

Note

The text buffer is created by the IVsTextScanner object and the buffer must persist for the life of the IVsTextScanner object or until the CloseScan method is called.
