COM Signature
From textmgr.idl:
HRESULT IVsTextLines::GetPositionOfLineIndex(
[in] long iLine,
[in] CharIndex iIndex,
[out] long *piPosition
);
This method could require considerable resources, depending upon the underlying implementation of the buffer. That is, it could be very difficult to calculate the size of the buffer if it is a virtual-line-oriented implementation as in Visual Basic.
