Parameters

index

UInt32

[in] Specifies the index of the list item of interest.

pszNewName

String

[in] Pointer to a null terminated string containing the new name.

grfFlags

UInt32

Returns

Int32

If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.

Remarks

COM Signature

From vsshell.idl:

HRESULT IVsObjectList::DoRename(  
   [in] ULONG Index,  
   [in] LPCOLESTR pszNewName,  
   [in] VSOBJOPFLAGS grfFlags  
);  

The environment calls DoRename when the user commits the rename operation. This method will be called only after CanRename has been called with the pszNewName so that you've had a chance to validate the name. If DoRename succeeds, return S_OK, otherwise return an error in hr and set the rich error info to indicate the problem that was encountered.

If multiple items are to be renamed, the environment will set grfFlags to indicate that multiple DoRename calls are being made. The environment also used the grfFlags parameter to indicate the first and last item to be renamed. You can use this, for instance, to create a single undo action for the multiple data items.
