Returns a value indicating whether there are any Visual Studio Analyzer clients interested in events generated by the calling component. This test allows for a low-cost determination of whether a Visual Studio Analyzer client is running and interested in events. Possible return values are S_OK or S_FALSE; a return value of S_FALSE means that events need not be generated.
The FireEvent method calls IsActive anyway, so if generating an event is low-impact, you might choose to omit the IsActive test.
