Public Function InsertSpecificExpansion (pSnippet As IXMLDOMNode, tsInsertPos As TextSpan, pExpansionClient As IVsExpansionClient, guidLang As Guid, pszRelativePath As String, ByRef pSession As IVsExpansionSession) As Integer

Parameters

pSnippet
IXMLDOMNode

[in] Contains the code snippet text.

tsInsertPos
TextSpan

[in] The location in the text buffer to insert the code snippet.

pExpansionClient
IVsExpansionClient

[in] Receives notifications about the insertion process. This can be null.

guidLang
Guid

[in] The GUID of the language service. Can be null. The default is the language service of the file.

pszRelativePath
String

[in] A path that is used if the node references an external file. This is typically null.

pSession
IVsExpansionSession

[out] The session that is used while the snippet is being edited in place.

Returns

Int32

If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.

Remarks

COM Signature

From textmgr2.idl:

HRESULT IVsExpansion::InsertSpecificExpansion(  
   [in]IXMLDOMNode *pSnippet,  
   [in] TextSpan tsInsertPos,  
   [in]IVsExpansionClient *pExpansionClient,  
   [in]GUID guidLang,  
   [in] BSTR pszRelativePath,  
   [out] IVsExpansionSession **pSession  
);

This method is used only if you are working directly with code snippet files and is rarely used.

If an IVsExpansionClient object is supplied, it receives before (OnBeforeInsertion method) and after (OnAfterInsertion method) notifications during the insertion process. The expansion client is also used to validate the kind of snippet (IsValidKind method) to make sure the snippet can actually be inserted at the specified location.
