Remarks

IVsToolboxDataProvider2 provides additional functionality for Toolbox data providers beyond the methods provided in IVsToolboxDataProvider. In particular, the methods of IVsToolboxDataProvider2 allow additional management of ID values, ToolTip text, and support for the IDE's Import/Export Settings feature.

Note

IVsToolboxDataProvider2 does not derive from IVsToolboxDataProvider and does not implement its methods. All data providers should implement both interfaces.

Notes to Implementers

IVsToolboxDataProvider2 should be implemented by all Toolbox data providers that need to persist a non-standard tab as part of Toolbox state through the settings feature.

GetPackageGUID(Guid)	Retrieves the GUID of the VSPackage to which this data provider belongs.
