Parameters

  • currentParameter
    Type: System.Int32

    [in] The parameter to be highlighted initially. Set this to -1 to start before the first parameter. This value is typically determined by parsing what the user has typed so far since the start of the parameter list.

Remarks

This method is used to initialize and show the method tip. Any previous contents are immediately replaced.

This method is typically called when a parse reason of MethodTip returns a MethodTip trigger and the call is typically made indirectly from the MethodTip method in the Source class (the call to this method is actually performed in the handler that is passed to the parser by the MethodTip method).

This method caches the IVsTextView, Methods, and TextSpan objects. It then sets the internal parameter index to the specified parameter index and calls the AdjustCurrentParameter method with an increment of 0 to update the tool tip display.
