Parameters

pszExePath
Type: System.String

[in] Full path to the executable file you want to launch for the previewer.

pszDisplayName
Type: System.String

[in] Name that appears in the Browse With dialog box.

Remarks

COM Signature

From vsshell.idl:

HRESULT IVsUIShellOpenDocument::AddStandardPreviewer(
   [in] LPCOLESTR pszExePath,
   [in] LPCOLESTR pszDisplayName,
   [in] BOOL fUseDDE,
   [in] LPCOLESTR pszDDEService,
   [in] LPCOLESTR pszDDETopicOpenURL,
   [in] LPCOLESTR pszDDEItemOpenURL,
   [in] LPCOLESTR pszDDETopicActivate,
   [in] LPCOLESTR pszDDEItemActivate,
   [in] VSASPFLAGS aspAddPreviewerFlags
);

This method adds a web browser to the list of available previewers that can be launched via OpenStandardPreviewer. Once a previewer has been added, it is persisted in the registry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER.

A VSPackage that wishes to add a standard previewer should put a registry entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\...\7.0\AddStandardPreviewer {guidPackage} = "Name of Package" subkey. The name is for debugging purpose only and is not actually used.

At the appropriate time, the environment parses the registry entries and calls ResetDefaults, passing in a value of PKGRF_ADDSTDPREVIEWER for the grfFlags parameter on the VSPackage. At that point the VSPackage should call IVsUIShellOpenDocument::AddStandardPreviewer.

For example, if the environment did not provide Internet Explorer as a standard previewer, you could add a call as follows:

AddStandardPreviewer(L"c:\\program files\\internet explorer\\iexplore.exe",

L"Microsoft Internet Explorer", TRUE, L"IEXPLORE",

L"WWW_OpenURL", L"\"%s\",,0xffffffff,3,,,,",

L"WWW_Activate", L"0xffffffff,0",

ASP_MakeDefault);

Use ASP_UnsetOldDefaults with care because you have to unset the old defaults with ASP_MakeDefault, so that there are never zero defaults. Also, if multiple VSPackages use ASP_UnsetOldDefaults | ASP_MakeDefault, the last VSPackage is the default.
