From vsshell.idl:

C++

HRESULT IVsLibrary::SaveState(
   [in] IStream *pIStream,
   [in] LIB_PERSISTTYPE lptType
);

The environment will call this method to indicate that browse container information should be persisted. This method is meaningful only for libraries providing global browse containers. As such, the lptType parameter will always be LPT_GLOBAL. Fill pIStream with whatever library information you choose to persist.
