Remarks
COM Signature
From textmgr2.idl:
HRESULT IVsCompletionSetEx::CompareItems(
[in]const BSTR bstrSoFar,
[in]const BSTR bstrOther,
[in]long lCharactersToCompare,
[out]long* plResult
);
This method provides a way to find a matching item in the completion list in a language-specific way. Compare the 1st lCharactersToCompare characters of two completer items and set the plResult parameter to one of the following conditions:
value |
Meaning |
|---|---|
plResult< 0 |
bstrSoFar comes before bstrOther |
plResult == 0 |
bstrSoFar is equivalent to bstrOther |
plResult > 0 |
bstrSoFar comes after bstrOther |
