virtual int CurFileExtensionFormat(
	String^ fileName
)

Parameters

fileName
Type: System::String^

[in] The file name from which to get the extension to look for.

Return Value

Type: System::Int32

If successful, returns a zero-based index into the file extension list that is returned from LanguageService::GetFormatFilterList; otherwise, returns -1 to indicate the extension is not in the file extension list.

This is used to select the appropriate filter when showing a Save As dialog box to save a file.

The base method calls LanguageService::GetFormatFilterList and then searches the list for the extension. Note that LanguageService::GetFormatFilterList returns a single string: the extensions are separated either by newlines or vertical bars ("|") and the base method can handle either separator.
