IVsStructuredFileIO Interface
Provides a common way to perform multi-format saves. You can get an instance of the interface from the SVsStructuredFileIO (SID_SVsStructuredFileIO) service.

CreateNew | Creates a new multi-format file with format index. |
|
FindFormatIndex | Returns the format index for the CodePage of the data object. |
|
GetFormatInfo | Returns the format information for the format index. |
|
GetFormatList | Returns the format list for the file types supported by your VSPackage. |

Remarks
The IVsStructuredFileIO interface provides a common way to do multi-format saves. It includes rudimentary support for using IPersistFileFormat.
The IVsStructuredFileIOHelper interface works with IVsStructuredFileIO and enables loading tokens in persisted files that are to be loaded with localized strings. For example, the IVsStructuredFileIO implementation looks for property values of the form "nnnn", where "nnnn" is a series of decimal digits, and requests string ID nnnn to be loaded through your implementation of LoadLocalizedString.
Notes to Implementers
Implemented by VSPackages that need to take advantage of multi-format file saves for persisted files.
Notes to Callers
Called by the environment when persisted data is to be saved to a structured file.
