Remarks
This interface is used to provide support for 24-bit or high color values. It is implemented on the same class that implements the IVsColorableItem or IVsPackageDefinedTextMarkerType interfaces.
Notes to Implementers
If support for high color values is needed, this interface must be implemented on the same class that implements the IVsColorableItem or IVsPackageDefinedTextMarkerType interfaces.
Notes to Callers
If this interface can be obtained from an object that implements the IVsColorableItem or IVsPackageDefinedTextMarkerType interface, then that object is advertising support for high color values. Call the GetColorData method to get the RGB values for the individual foreground, background, and line colors. If the GetColorData method returns an error, gracefully fall back to accessing the colors on the original IVsColorableItem or IVsPackageDefinedTextMarkerType interfaces.
Examples
Here is an example in managed code of how to implement the IVsHiColorItem interface and instantiate it. Note how a set of red, green, and blue values is converted to a COLORREF in the MyRGB constructor. This example is from a language service.
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextManager.Interop;
namespace MyNamespace
{
internal struct MyRGB
{
public uint ColorRef;
public MyRGB(int r, int g, int b)
{
ColorRef = (uint)System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.ToWin32(
System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(r, g, b));
}
public MyRGB(bool fInvalid)
{
ColorRef = unchecked((uint)-1);
}
public bool IsValid()
{
return ColorRef != unchecked((uint)-1);
}
}
