[in] Pointer to the IVsTextBuffer interface to register.

Remarks

COM Signature

From textmgr.idl:

C++

HRESULT IVsTextManager::RegisterBuffer(
   [in] IVsTextBuffer *pBuffer
);

Use this method to register a text buffer that is created externally. All buffers must register with the text manager service to receive messages, such as change notifications.

Note
To avoid circular reference problems, UnregisterBuffer should be called from the buffer's implementation of the interface Close, which is called from the running document table.
