Returns an IVsGradient object on which to draw a gradient of a specified type.

Namespace: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop
Assembly: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.8.0 (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.8.0.dll)

Syntax

'Déclaration
Function CreateGradient ( _
    GRADIENTTYPE As UInteger, _
    <OutAttribute> ByRef pGradient As IVsGradient _
) As Integer
'Utilisation
Dim instance As IVsUIShell2
Dim GRADIENTTYPE As UInteger
Dim pGradient As IVsGradient
Dim returnValue As Integer

returnValue = instance.CreateGradient(GRADIENTTYPE, _
    pGradient)

int CreateGradient(
    uint GRADIENTTYPE,
    out IVsGradient pGradient
)

int CreateGradient(
    [InAttribute] unsigned int GRADIENTTYPE, 
    [OutAttribute] IVsGradient^% pGradient
)

abstract CreateGradient : 
        GRADIENTTYPE:uint32 * 
        pGradient:IVsGradient byref -> int

function CreateGradient(
    GRADIENTTYPE : uint, 
    pGradient : IVsGradient
) : int

Parameters

GRADIENTTYPE
Type: System.UInt32
[in] The type of gradient to be painted, specified by a value from the __GRADIENTTYPE enumeration.

pGradient
Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.IVsGradient%
[out] An IVsGradient object whose member functions can draw the specified gradient type.

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 vsshell80.idl:

HRESULT IVsUIShell2::CreateGradient(
   [in]  GRADIENTTYPE   gradientType,
   [out] IVsGradient ** pGradient
);
