Notes to Implementers:
Implement this interface to create your language service. This is the primary language service interface and is required for all language services.
Here is a simple example of an implementation of this interface.
using Microsoft.VisualStudio; using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextManager.Interop; namespace MyLanguagePackage { class MyLanguageService : IVsLanguageInfo { public int GetCodeWindowManager(IVsCodeWindow pCodeWin, out IVsCodeWindowManager ppCodeWinMgr) { // MyCodeWindowManager class implements IVsCodeWindowManager. ppCodeWinMgr = new MyCodeWindowManager(pCodeWin); return VSConstants.S_OK; } public int GetColorizer(IVsTextLines pBuffer out IVsColorizer ppColorizer) { // MyColorizer implements IVsColorizer ppColorizer = new MyColorizer(pBuffer); return VSConstants.S_OK; } public int GetFileExtensions(out string pbstrExtensions) { // This is the same extension the language service was // registered as supporting. pbstrExtensions = ".myext"; return VSConstants.S_OK; } public int GetLanguageName(out string bstrName) { // This is the same name the language service was // registered with. bstrName = "MyLanguage"; return VSConstants.S_OK; } } }
