Remarks
When to Call
Implement the ProvideToolWindowAttribute class when a VSPackage implements one or more tool windows.
Basic Usage
This attribute declares that a specific VSPackage owns a tool window. It also helps determine the positioning and persistence of the tool window when it is created. To use ProvideToolWindowAttribute, place it on a package class derived from Package or implementing IVsPackage.
This attribute is only used to provide data for external registration tools. It does not have any effect on the runtime behavior of the VSPackage.
Registry Entries
The ProvideToolWindowAttribute class creates the following registry entries:
<VSROOT>\ToolWindows\{ToolWindowGuid}
<VSROOT>\ToolWindows\{ToolWindowGuid}\@={ToolWindowTypeGuid}
<VSROOT>\ToolWindows\{ToolWindowGuid}\Name=ToolWindowName
The following registry entries are optional:
<VSROOT>\ToolWindows\{ToolWindowGuid}\Float=FloatPosition
<VSROOT>\ToolWindows\{ToolWindowGuid}\Style=ToolWindowStyle
<VSROOT>\ToolWindows\{ToolWindowGuid}\Window=DockWith
<VSROOT>\ToolWindows\{ToolWindowGuid}\Orientation=ToolWindowOrientation
Thread Safety
Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
