Attributes: CLSCompliantAttribute

Remarks

Typically, this service is provided locally by DSL Tools' DocDatas and ToolWindows

Properties

CurrentDocument	Retrieves the DocData object corresponding to the active document. Usually, this object will implement at least the IVsPersistDocData2 interface.
CurrentDocumentView	Retrieves the currently active DocView. Note that this can be different from the CurrentWindow, as the CurrentWindow property also tracks tool windows
CurrentSelectionContainer	Retrieves the currently active selection container. Note that this may be different from the currently active window, since not all windows are selection containers. Command handlers which are driven off of the current selection should use this property, rather than the current window. This is because the selection container may not be the focused window. The distinction is particularly important in the case of the Command Window.
CurrentUndoManager	Retrieves the undo manager associated with the currently focused window.
CurrentWindow	Retrieves the window pane object associated with the currently focused window. This could be a document or a tool window. Usually, this object will implement at least the IVsWindowPane interface.
CurrentWindowFrame	Retrieves the window frame associated with the currently focussed window. This will always be an IVsWindowFrame (or null).

Methods

GetCommandContextCookie(Guid)	Returns the cookie for the given context guid.
IsCommandContextActive(Guid)	Returns true if the given command context is currently active
IsCommandContextActive(UInt32)	Returns true if the command context corresponding to the given cookie is currently active

Events

CommandContextChanged	Called when a command UI context is activated/deactivated.
DocumentChanged	Called when the document changes
