int Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.IVsHierarchy.ParseCanonicalName(std::wstring const & name, [Runtime::InteropServices::Out] unsigned int & itemId);
int IVsHierarchy.ParseCanonicalName (string name, out uint itemId);
abstract member Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.IVsHierarchy.ParseCanonicalName : string * uint32 -> int
override this.Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.IVsHierarchy.ParseCanonicalName : string * uint32 -> int
Function ParseCanonicalName (name As String, ByRef itemId As UInteger) As Integer Implements IVsHierarchy.ParseCanonicalName

Remarks

This method calls the ParseCanonicalName method, which calls the ParseCanonicalName method on the inner project.

Canonical names do not change between sessions of the environment, but item identifiers do. Use this method to manage workspace persistence, such as remembering window positions.
