A session is returned by each IntelliSense triggering operation, and can be used to control the process of IntelliSense operations. IntelliSense sessions are aggregated into a stack, managed by an IIntellisenseSessionStack instance.
The interfaces ICompletionSession, IQuickInfoSession, ISignatureHelpSession, and ISmartTagSession implement this interface.
