Remarks
The IVsTextLines interface provides the mechanism to access the contents of the text buffer in a line-oriented fashion. IVsTextLines is derived from IVsTextBuffer.
Text is defined as lines separated by end-of-line (EOL) indicators. Lines are measured using a long type. This interface provides extensive text read and write capabilities using the two-dimensional coordinate system. You can also use this interface to create text markers.
IVsTextLines calls methods in IVsTextLinesEvents to inform a listener that text or attributes in the buffer have changed. For more information about setting up event notification, see IVsTextLinesEvents.
See illustrations of the implementation and/or calling of this interface in the samples Figures Edit, Figures Language Service, and Solution Extender.
Notes to Implementers:
Implemented by text buffers in the environment.
Notes to Callers:
Called by clients that want to access the text buffer. You can use the text buffer object to read or change text.
