function ApplyFilter(
pbstrSearchString : String,
piSelectionStart : int,
piSelectionEnd : int
)
Parameters
pbstrSearchString
Type: System.String%[in, out] The current search string to be filtered. Returns a string modified by the filtering action.
piSelectionStart
Type: System.Int32%[in, out] The position in the string to start filtering (0 indicates the first character in the string). Returns the starting position of the filtered string.
piSelectionEnd
Type: System.Int32%[in, out] The position in the string to stop filtering (-1 indicates the last character in the string). Returns the stopping position of the filtered string.
Remarks
This method applies the filter to the current search string, returning the result and a selection interval delimiting the string that should be displayed. Use -1 to indicate string end, [0,-1] to select the whole string, and so on.
For example, you could append text like “Filter:(<parameter>)” if no text is selected and return a selection for the “<parameter>” string for easy replacement. You could also insert text around the selected text like “Filter:(<existing_selection>)”.
