Syntax
'Declaration
Function OpenComparisonWindowFromCommandLineArguments ( _
Arguments As String _
) As IVsWindowFrame
IVsWindowFrame OpenComparisonWindowFromCommandLineArguments(
string Arguments
)
IVsWindowFrame^ OpenComparisonWindowFromCommandLineArguments(

abstract OpenComparisonWindowFromCommandLineArguments :
Arguments:string -> IVsWindowFrame
function OpenComparisonWindowFromCommandLineArguments(

) : IVsWindowFrame
Parameters
Arguments
Type: String[in] The arguments for opening and displaying the file comparison window.
Return Value
Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.IVsWindowFrame
Window frame for the comparison view.
Remarks
The arguments for Arguments use the following form:
leftFile rightFile leftLabel rightLabel inlineLabel roles
where each argument is separated by a space.
If either the left or right file is a binary file (which cannot be opened in the text editor), then this call will cause Visual Studio to display a modal dialog box and return S_OK (even though pDiffWindow is null).
