IVsUIShell.PostExecCommand Method
Allows asynchronous execution of commands.
Assembly: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.dll)
int PostExecCommand( ref Guid pguidCmdGroup, uint nCmdID, uint nCmdexecopt, ref Object pvaIn )
Parameters
- pguidCmdGroup
- Type: System.Guid%
[in, unique] Unique identifier of the command group; can be null to specify the standard group. All the commands that are passed in the nCmdID must belong to the group specified by pguidCmdGroup.
- nCmdID
- Type: System.UInt32
[in] The command to be executed. This command must belong to the group specified with pguidCmdGroup.
- nCmdexecopt
- Type: System.UInt32
[in] Values describe how the object should execute the command.
- pvaIn
- Type: System.Object%
[in, unique] Pointer to a VARIANTARG structure containing input arguments. Can be null.
Return Value
Type: System.Int32If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.
COM Signature
From vsshell.idl:
HRESULT IVsUIShell::PostExecCommand( [in, unique] const GUID * pguidCmdGroup, [in] DWORD nCmdID, [in] DWORD nCmdexecopt, [in, unique] VARIANT * pvaIn );
To synchronously execute a command, call QueryService for the SID_SUIHostCommandDispatcher service, which returns an object that implements IOleCommandTarget. In this case, the environment synchronously executes the command and return. Use IVsUIShell.PostExecCommand method to asynchronously execute a command. That is, the command is posted to the environment, but control is returned to you immediately. The command then executes at a later time.
