ProposalBrokerBase.RequestProposals Method

Definition

Request proposals from all of the applicable ProposalSourceBases given caret and completionState. Allow groupingDelay to pass from the first ProposalSourceBase to complete before giving up on the other sources.

public abstract Microsoft.VisualStudio.Threading.AsyncQueue<Microsoft.VisualStudio.Language.Proposals.ProposalCollectionBase> RequestProposals(Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.VirtualSnapshotPoint caret, Microsoft.VisualStudio.Language.Proposals.CompletionState? completionState, Microsoft.VisualStudio.Language.Proposals.ProposalScenario scenario, char triggeringCharacter, TimeSpan groupingDelay, System.Threading.CancellationToken cancel);
abstract member RequestProposals : Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.VirtualSnapshotPoint * Microsoft.VisualStudio.Language.Proposals.CompletionState * Microsoft.VisualStudio.Language.Proposals.ProposalScenario * char * TimeSpan * System.Threading.CancellationToken -> Microsoft.VisualStudio.Threading.AsyncQueue<Microsoft.VisualStudio.Language.Proposals.ProposalCollectionBase>
Public MustOverride Function RequestProposals (caret As VirtualSnapshotPoint, completionState As CompletionState, scenario As ProposalScenario, triggeringCharacter As Char, groupingDelay As TimeSpan, cancel As CancellationToken) As AsyncQueue(Of ProposalCollectionBase)

Parameters

completionState
CompletionState
scenario
ProposalScenario
triggeringCharacter
Char
groupingDelay
TimeSpan

Returns

An AsyncQueue<T> of ProposalCollectionBases. Complete() will be called on the queue when all ProposalSourceBases have completed.

Remarks

The algorithm for enqueuing proposals is as follows:

1. Call <xref data-throw-if-not-resolved="true" uid="Microsoft.VisualStudio.Language.Proposals.ProposalSourceBase.RequestProposalsAsync(Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.VirtualSnapshotPoint,Microsoft.VisualStudio.Language.Proposals.CompletionState,Microsoft.VisualStudio.Language.Proposals.ProposalScenario,System.Char,System.Threading.CancellationToken)"></xref> for each source.
2. Wait until one source returns with a non-null/empty result.
3. Wait an additional <code data-dev-comment-type="paramref">groupingDelay</code> to allow other sources to generate results.
4. Enqueue all sources that generated results using the ordering specified by their <xref data-throw-if-not-resolved="true" uid="Microsoft.VisualStudio.Language.Proposals.ProposalSourceProviderBase"></xref>.
5. Enqueue remaining results in their order of completion.
