RunningDocumentTable.SaveFileIfDirty(String) Method

Definition

Saves the specified file if it has changed since the last save.

public:
 Platform::String ^ SaveFileIfDirty(Platform::String ^ fullPath);

Parameters

fullPath
String

[in] The full path to the document to be saved.

Returns

The path to which the file was saved. This is either the original path or a new path specified by the user.

Remarks

This method attempts to use the IVsPersistDocData2 interface from the document to save the document. If the IVsPersistDocData2 interface cannot be obtained from the document then the original path is returned. If the save fails for any reason or the document is not dirty, then the original path is returned. If the save succeeds, the path to which the document was saved is returned. In other words, there is no way to determine from this method if the document was saved or not.
