using two QuickInfoProviders

There was a bug with using two of them. We fixed it in yesterday's build 515 though.

I am trying to activate both, but this seems still or again not possible. Maybe the problem came back?;)

Now i have two QuickInfoProviderBase active, but it seems only one is working. Or is there something wrong with my Ordering?

public BlaiseCollapsedRegionQuickInfoProvider() : base("BlaiseCollapsedRegion", new Ordering("BlaiseSquiggleTag", OrderPlacement.After)) { }

public BlaiseQuickInfoProvider() : base("BlaiseQuickInfoProvider") { }

Hi Martin,

Is "BlaiseSquiggleTag" a quick info provider? If not, having it there probably isn't doing anything. Which one of these should have priority and show if they overlap?

If you think there is a bug, please make a new simple sample project that shows the issue and email that over to us. We're hoping to get a maintenance release out in the next several days so if there is a bug we'd like to get it fixed for that.

i removed the ordering but that didnt help.. Tomorrow i will look into again.

Hi Martin,

Thanks for the sample, it turns out you were registering the two quick info provider services under the same type key (IQuickInfoProvider) like this: So your first BlaiseCollapsedRegionQuickInfoProvider service was registered as IQuickInfoProvider. Then your second BlaiseQuickInfoProvider effectively removes the first service since it's also registered as IQuickInfoProvider.

For provider services and event sinks, you want to just allow them to register as whatever type they are, like this: Note this is in the docs for provider services in the Service Locator Architecture topic:
"But be careful to not register more than one service with the same Type key, or else the existing service that with Type key will be removed."

But it's certainly easy to miss that with all the documentation info on services. :) At least this is an easy fix and everything works if you change it like that.

Geez, some days i am just asleep:)

it works now (ofcourse you would say;))

Thanks you guys (and girls?) for waking me up !

Met vriendelijke groeten

Martin
