static bool StartsBeforeStartOf(
	TextSpan span1,
	TextSpan span2
)

Parameters

span1
Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextManager.Interop::TextSpan

[in] The first TextSpan object.

span2
Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextManager.Interop::TextSpan

[in] The second TextSpan object.

Return Value

Type: System::Boolean

Returns true if the start of span1 is less than the start of span2; otherwise, returns false.

This method calls the StartsAfterStartOf method and returns the logical opposite result. Use this method to determine whether the first span occurs before the second span. This test does not mean the two spans intersect, only that the start of the first span occurs after the start of the second span.
