ISearchProtocolThreadContext interface (searchapi.h)
This optional interface enables the protocol handler to perform an action on the thread used for filtering in the protocol host. When the protocol host starts, it first initializes all the protocol handlers, and then it creates the filtering thread(s). The methods on this interface enable protocol handlers to manage their resources that are used by a filtering thread.

Methods

| ISearchProtocolThreadContext::ThreadShutdown Notifies the protocol handler that the thread is being shut down. |
