public virtual bool InsertSpecificExpansion (Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextManager.Interop.IVsTextView view, System.Xml.XmlElement snippet, Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextManager.Interop.TextSpan pos, string relativePath);

abstract member InsertSpecificExpansion : Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextManager.Interop.IVsTextView * System.Xml.XmlElement * Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextManager.Interop.TextSpan * string -> bool

Public Overridable Function InsertSpecificExpansion (view As IVsTextView, snippet As XmlElement, pos As TextSpan, relativePath As String) As Boolean

Parameters

view

IVsTextView

[in] An IVsTextView object representing the view showing the source.

snippet

XmlElement

[in] An XmlElement object containing the snippet to insert.

pos

TextSpan

[in] A TextSpan object specifying the position where the snippet is to be inserted.

relativePath

String

[in] A relative path to the snippet template file from which this snippet was taken.

Returns

Boolean

If the snippet was inserted, returns true; otherwise, returns false.

Remarks

The base method converts the XmlElement object to an IXMLDOMNode object and then calls the InsertSpecificExpansion method on the IVsExpansion object. If the InsertSpecificExpansion method is successful, the base method saves the IVsExpansionSession object that was returned and returns true; otherwise, the base method returns false.
