Parameters

pguidMarker
Type: System.Guid%

[in] Pointer to a GUID identifying the external marker type.

ppMarkerType
Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextManager.Interop.IVsPackageDefinedTextMarkerType%

[out] Pointer to the IVsPackageDefinedTextMarkerType implementation for the external marker type.

If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.

Remarks

COM Signature

From textmgr.idl:

HRESULT IVsTextMarkerTypeProvider::GetTextMarkerType(
   [in] GUID *pguidMarker,
   [out] IVsPackageDefinedTextMarkerType **ppMarkerType
);

When a package registers an external marker type, this interface is implemented once by the specified service. This method passes you a GUID that matches the GUID of a marker that you have registered under "External Markers." You then need to pass back a pointer to your IVsPackageDefinedTextMarkerType implementation for this marker type.

Note

You do not need to pass back a separate IVsPackageDefinedTextMarkerType instance every time this is called for the same GUID. For a given marker GUID, it can be the same instance each time. The reason for this interface is that you can register any number of marker types.
