Parameters
index
Type: System.UInt32[in] Specifies the index of the list item of interest.
Category
Type: System.Int32[in] Specifies the category of interest. Values are taken from the LIB_CATEGORY enumeration.
pfCatField
Type: System.UInt32%[out] Pointer to a variable holding the value returned.
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 IVsObjectList2::GetCategoryField2(
[in] ULONG Index,
[in] LIB_CATEGORY2 Category,
out,retval] DWORD *pfCatField
);
The environment's object manager calls this method to retrieve the category data for the list items. You must return in the pField parameter an enumerator value from the LIB_* enumeration corresponding to the category specified in the Category parameter. The categories and their associated field enumerations are listed in the following table.
Category from LIB_CATEGORY |
LIBCAT_ enum |
|---|---|
LC_MEMBERTYPE |
|
LC_MEMBERACCESS |
|
LC_CLASSTYPE |
|
LC_CLASSACCESS |
|
LC_ACTIVEPROJECT |
Unused. |
LC_LISTTYPE (Special, see below) |
LIBCAT_LISTTYPE (typedef of _LIB_LISTTYPE) |
LC_VISIBILITY |
|
LC_MODIFIER |
|
LC_NODETYPE (Special, see below) |
If the index parameter is NULINDEX, the Category parameter is LC_LISTTYPE and the request is for the list as a whole, not a specific list item. This is asking for the child list types supported under this list. In this case you would assign pField one or more of the values from the _LIB_LISTTYPE enumeration. For instance, an LC_CLASSES list may return LC_CLASSES | LC_MEMBERS to indicate that it supports classes and member lists. This does not, however, mean that every list item in this list supports both child lists.
Calling the GetCategoryField method with LC_LISTTYPE category is one way the environment determines if a node is expandable so it can indicate that a '+' symbol should be displayed in the object browser or class view tools. Since computing expandability of a node can be expensive for your library, the environment first calls GetExpandable3. If that method fails, the environment calls GetCategoryField. Use GetExpandable3 if you can determine the expandable state of the list item much faster than fully enumerating all the supported lists under the given item.
Do not implement LC_NODETYPE for non-LLT_HIERARCHY lists. You can return LCNT_SYMBOL for LLT_HIERARCHY lists that are actually symbol lists, however.
