Public Function WriteSettingLong (pszSettingName As String, lSettingValue As Integer) As Integer

Parameters

pszSettingName
String

[in] String uniquely identifying the data element to be stored

lSettingValue
Int32

[in] Long (32-bit Integer) value to be stored as the specified data element of the Visual Studio settings file.

Remarks

COM Signature

From vsshell80.idl:

HRESULT WriteSettingLong  
   (LPCOLESTR pszSettingName,   
   long lSettingValue  
   );  

The names specified by pfSettingValue need to be unique within a Custom Settings Point (settings category), as the IDE uses the Custom Settings Point identifying GUID and the value of pfSettingValue to identify each saved setting.

If more than one IVsSettingsWriter method is called with the same value of pszSettingName, the original value is overwritten in the Visual Studio settings file.

Because the value of pfSettingValue must be unique, the order of calling WriteSettingLong with respect to other methods of the IVsSettingsReader interface is not relevant.
