Babel Interfaces

This section describes the interfaces that are used by the Babel Package to communicate with your implementation of the IBabelService Interface interface. Most of these interfaces are used in the default Babel implementation. For more information about the default Babel implementation, see The Default Babel Implementation in the Language Service Package.

The IBabelProject Interface interface can be implemented on your own custom project type to support searching for a file name in the context of the project.
