IVsTaskProvider3.GetProviderGuid(Guid) Method
Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Returns a unique Identifier for this provider. This is used to persist & restore per-provider data managed by the task list, such as user customizations of column width & order. If it is not practical to assign a GUID to this provider (e.g. the provider is dynamically created at run-time and the identity cannot be preserved across VS sessions), you may return GUID_NULL. However, you should be aware that certain functionality (such as UI settings persistence and the IVsTaskList2.SetActiveProvider method) will not work in that case.
