Assembly:  Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.8.0 (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.8.0.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Function GetColorType ( _
    crSource As UInteger, _
    <OutAttribute> ByRef pctType As Integer _
) As Integer
int GetColorType(
    uint crSource,
    out int pctType
)
int GetColorType(
    [InAttribute] unsigned int crSource, 
    [OutAttribute] int% pctType
)
abstract GetColorType : 
        crSource:uint32 * 
        pctType:int byref -> int
function GetColorType(
    crSource : uint, 
    pctType : int
) : int

Parameters

  • crSource
    Type: System.UInt32

    [in] A COLORREF representation of color value.

  • pctType
    Type: System.Int32%

    [out] An integer representing the color type of crSource.

Return Value

Type: System.Int32
If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.

Remarks

The value of pctType will be a member of the __VSCOLORTYPE enumeration.

Managed code can obtain functionality equivalent to GetSysColor with SystemColors and convert between COLORREF and the System.Drawing.Color structure using M:System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromWin32 and M:System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.ToWin32.
