Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

spansToInsert is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) or a span in that list is null.

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

position is less than zero or greater than the number of spans.

ArgumentException

An element of spansToInsert is neither an ITrackingSpan nor a string.

-or-

A span in spansToInsert would cause a duplicated projection.

-or-

A tracking span in spansToInsert is EdgeInclusive and does not cover its entire buffer, or is EdgePositive and does not abut the end of its buffer, or is EdgeNegative and does not abut the beginning of its buffer.

These checks are not performed if the projection buffer was created with the PermissiveEdgeInclusiveSourceSpans option.

-or-

Adding one of the text buffers containing any of the spansToInsert would create a cycle among a set of projection buffers.
