function GetContextStream(
piPos : int,
piLength : int
) : int
Parameters
- piPos
Type: System.Int32%
[out] Integer identifying the stream position in the text buffer.
- piLength
Type: System.Int32%
[out] Integer identifying the length of text in the stream past piPos that should not be obscured with the method tip window.
Return Value
Type: System.Int32
If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.
Remarks
COM Signature
From textmgr.idl:
HRESULT IVsMethodData::GetContextStream(
[out] long *piPos,
[out] long *piLength
);
The context stream is the position and length of the text in the buffer that should not be obscured by the tip window, but to which the content of the tip is applied. Use this method to specify the context stream. If you do not implement this method, then the view determines where to place the method tip window.
