Definition

 int SetActiveProvider(Guid % rguidProvider);
public int SetActiveProvider (ref Guid rguidProvider);

Parameters

rguidProvider
Guid

[in] A Provider Identifier; an object of type REFGUID.

Returns

If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.

Remarks

Selecting the provider currently displayed in the tasklist should not be done automatically (e.g. in response to a build or run action), but only when explicitly requested by the user. Users get annoyed when we switch things like this automatically.
