Parameters

  • line
    Type: System.Int32

    [in] The line number where the insertion is to take place.

  • col
    Type: System.Int32

    [in] The character offset on the line where the insertion is to take place.

Remarks

The snippet to be inserted has been prepared by a call to the PrepareTemplate method.

The base method calls InsertNamedExpansion on the IVsExpansion object that was obtained from the IVsTextLines object in the ExpansionProvider class constructor (ExpansionProvider). If the insertion fails, the base method calls the EndTemplateEditing method. Otherwise, the snippet is inserted and the snippet editing mode is enabled (the latter two steps are done in the InsertNamedExpansion method on the IVsExpansion object when that method calls the OnBeforeInsertion method).
