Remarks
COM Signature
From vsshell80.idl:
HRESULT WriteSettingString(
LPCOLESTR pszSettingName,
LPCOLESTR pszSettingValue
);
The names specified by pfSettingValue
need to be unique within a Custom Settings Point (settings category), as the IDE uses the Custom Settings Point identifying GUID and the value of pfSettingValue
to identify each saved setting.
If more than one IVsSettingsWriter method is called with the same value of pszSettingName
, the original value is overwritten in the Visual Studio settings file.
Because the value of pfSettingValue
must be unique, the order of calling WriteSettingString with respect to other methods of the IVsSettingsReader interface is not relevant.
