Remarks

COM Signature

From vsshell.idl:

HRESULT IVsDebuggableProjectCfg::get_RootURL(
   [out] BSTR *pbstrRootURL
);

If an output item's project-relative path is required, it is computed by removing the root URL from its deploy source URL which is retrieved by calling the output item's get_DeploySourceURL method.

The RootURL property is the root URL for project outputs. Essentially, if an output's project-relative path is required, it is computed by removing the RootURL from its DeploySourceURL. The output's project-relative path might be used internally (for example, for computing the relative path of the installed output that must be returned from get_RootRelativeURL) or for a deployment project.

Paths to items in the local file system begin with these eight characters: file:///.

Note

Due to local firewall and other security settings, consumers of outputs may not be able to process URLs of other forms, so it is very important for projects that are generating URLs for local items to try to use this form of URL as much as possible.
