Methods

  Name Description
Public method Equals Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method Finalize Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetHashCode Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method MemberwiseClone Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method OnBeforeNavigateToSymbol Determines if there is an alternate source file within which to navigate for a specified code symbol (GoTo Definition operation).
Public method QueryNavigateToSymbol Retrieves the alternate navigation target for the specified symbol,l if there is one.
Public method RegisterSymbolicNavigationNotify Registers the specified IVsSymbolicNavigationManager handler.
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method UnregisterSymbolicNavigationNotify Unregisters the specified IVsSymbolicNavigationManager handler.

Remarks

The language service of a code language should call OnBeforeNavigateToSymbol on this service before performing a “go to definition” type of navigation to a symbol in code. This allows an advanced code generator system to overtake normal navigation and cause navigation to the definition of a symbol in the source document that generated the code definition.

This service loops through all of the registered objects, calling its symbol querying methods, until the first one handles the symbol. The order of the calls is undefined. Implementations of these methods should quickly respond false for any irrelevant files by checking the file extension of the input code file. Other quick checks should be made if the input IVsHierarchy is supported.

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.
