IVsTextStream.GetSize(Int32) Method

Definition

Returns the size in characters of the buffer.

public:
 int GetSize([Runtime::InteropServices::Out] int % piLength);
int GetSize([Runtime::InteropServices::Out] int & piLength);
public int GetSize (out int piLength);
abstract member GetSize : int -> int
Public Function GetSize (ByRef piLength As Integer) As Integer

Parameters

piLength
Int32

[out] Pointer to the size of the buffer, which is not necessarily the same value as the size of the buffer's internally-allocated memory or the size of the file (if any) represented by the buffer.

Returns

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

Remarks

COM Signature

From textmgr.idl:

HRESULT IVsTextStream::GetSize(  
   [out] long *piLength  
);  

This method could require considerable resources, depending upon the underlying implementation of the buffer. That is, it could be very difficult to calculate the size of the buffer if it is a virtual-line-oriented implementation of the buffer, as in Visual Basic.
