Examples

[ProvideCodeExpansion(typeof(MyLanguageService),            // Required  
                        MyConstants.languageName,           // Required  
                        MyConstants.languageNameResourceID, // Required  
                        MyConstants.languageIdentifier,     // Required  
                        MyConstants.snippetsIndexFilePath,  // Required  
    // Optional code expansion properties  
    SearchPaths = @"%InstallRoot%\MyLanguage\Snippets\%LCID%\Snippets;" +  
                  @"\%MyDocs%\Code Snippets\MyLanguage\My Code Snippets";  
                     )]  

Remarks

The paths specified by this option are a semi-colon-delimited list and are used to look for snippets if the index file cannot be found. The search paths can contain certain substitution variables; see Support for Code Snippets in a Legacy Language Service for details.

This property is available to any language service implementation.
