Remarks

COM Signature

From vsshell.idl:

HRESULT IVsPackage::CreateTool(
   [in] REFGUID rguidPersistenceSlot
);

A tool window can be configured to open automatically the next time the environment is launched if the window was open during the environment shutdown.

This method should not make the Tool window visible; that is, it should not call Show.

To automatically open Tool windows when the environment is launched, pass CTW_fForceCreate to CreateToolWindow. The tool windows and their configuration must be registered in the system registry. For specific registry entry format and values, see Tool Window Registration and Configuration.
