Remarks

COM Signature

From textmgr.idl:

HRESULT IVsLanguageInfo::GetColorizer(  
   [in] IVsTextLines *pBuffer,   
   [out] IVsColorizer **ppColorizer  
);  

This method can return an interface on the language info object itself, or on new objects. The method would return an interface on new objects, for example, if the colorizer for the language needs state information on a per-file basis.

The colorizer is used for syntax coloring and can be used for quick identification of tokens on a line.
