The Build and the General output window panes are supplied by the environment. The Build output window pane is created by the SVsSolutionBuildManager service and the pointer to the Build window pane is passed to the projects as part of IVsBuildableProjectCfg operations. The General output window pane is a shared pane, which and is created and managed by the environment. It can be retrieved by calling QueryService(SID_SVsGeneralOutputWindowPane, and IID_IVsOutputWindowPane). To create your own output window, call CreatePane passing in the name and GUID you want to use for your custom output window pane.
