Remarks

COM Signature

From vsshell80.idl:

HRESULT IVsToolboxDataProvider2::GetItemTipInfo(  
   [in] IDataObject *pDO,  
   [in] LPCOLESTR lpszCurrentName,  
   [in] IPropertyBag *pStrings  
);  

lpszCurrentName is the current display name of the item as it exists on the Toolbox (which may be different from its original name if the user has renamed it).

The data provider can add a value to an item's ToolTip window by calling Write once for each property. The following property names are recognized:

Name Value
"Name" "Name" can be any string, but in most cases it should be the same as lpszCurrentName. (The value of "Name" will be displayed in bold.)
"Version" A string containing a series of numbers separated by periods (e.g. "1.2.34").
"Company" A string containing the name of the company.
"ComponentType" A string that describes the type of the component, such as "Managed .NET Control" or "COM Component".
"Description" A string containing one or two sentences of less than 100 total characters.

Any, all, or none of these properties may be supplied to the Write method.
