[MonoDevelop] Some questions

[Lluis Sanchez]

The Resolve method takes the file content as parameter, so you can look
for the line-column position by scanning the content. 

Right now there isn't a simpler way to do it, but maybe you can help
improving this. The idea is to use the ITextFile iterface (which is
defined in MonoDevelop.Projects.Text) instead of the pair
fileName/fileContent as parameters for the IParser.Resolve method.

The advantage of using this interface is that it already provides
methods for getting text from line-column positions, and different text
file sources can provide specially optimized implementations of those
methods. For example, the text editor currently implements ITextFile,
and the GetPositionFromLineColumn method is implemented using the
SourceView methods.

Notice that IParserContext.ParseFile already has an overload that takes
an ITextFile as parameter. IParserContext.GetEnclosingLanguageItem is
also using ITextFile instead of fileName/fileContent. Changing
IParser.Reslove shouldn't be too difficult.

Lluis.
