IWMSBufferAllocator.AllocatePageSizeBuffer (C#)

The AllocatePageSizeBuffer method initializes a page-aligned INSSBuffer object.

Syntax

Parameters

dwMaxBufferSize

uint containing the maximum size of the buffer in bytes. This must be less than 16 MB (16,777,216 bytes).

ppBuffer

Reference to an INSSBuffer object container the buffer.

Return Values

This method does not return a value.

If this method fails, it throws an exception.

Number Description
0x80070057 dwMaxBufferSize is greater than 16 MB or ppBuffer is null.
0x8007000E There is insufficient memory to complete the function.

Remarks

The AllocatePageSizeBuffer method allocates page-aligned memory. Because the method lacks information about the sector size of different storage systems, it allocates a buffer of the size passed in, if possible. Therefore, it is up to the caller to determine an appropriate buffer size.

Example Code

The following example uses the IWMSBufferAllocator object to allocate a buffer to hold the written playlist file.

void IWMSPlaylistParser.WritePlaylist(
    IXMLDOMDocument pPlaylist,
    IWMSPlaylistParserCallback pCallback,
    ulong qwContext)
{
    IXMLDOMNodeList NodeList;
    IWMSBufferAllocator pBufAlloc;
    INSSBuffer pINSSBuffer = null;
    string strPls;
    string strMedia = "";
    IntPtr pBuf;
    int i;
    int j;
    Encoder Enc = Encoding.Unicode.GetEncoder();
    byte[] Bytes;
    int iBytes;

    try
    {
        strPls = "!- DJ_FILE v1.0 -!\r\n";

        NodeList = pPlaylist.getElementsByTagName("media");
        for( i = 0; i < NodeList.length; i++ )
        {
            for( j = 0; j < NodeList[i].attributes.length; j++ )
            {
                if( NodeList[i].attributes[j].nodeName == "src" )
                    strMedia =
                          (string)NodeList[i].attributes[j].nodeValue;
                else
                    strPls = strPls + "# " +
                           NodeList[i].attributes[j].nodeName + "=\"" +
                           NodeList[i].attributes[j].nodeValue + "\"\r\n";
            }
            if( !strMedia.Equals("") )
                strPls = strPls + strMedia + "\r\n\r\n";
        }

        iBytes = Enc.GetByteCount(strPls.ToCharArray(), 0, strPls.Length,
                                  false);
        Bytes = (byte[])Array.CreateInstance(typeof(byte), iBytes);
        iBytes = Enc.GetBytes(strPls.ToCharArray(), 0, strPls.Length,
                              Bytes, 0, true);

        pBufAlloc = (IWMSBufferAllocator)m_ClassFactory;
        pBufAlloc.AllocatePageSizeBuffer(Convert.ToUInt32(iBytes),
                                         out pINSSBuffer);
        pINSSBuffer.SetLength(Convert.ToUInt32(iBytes));
        pINSSBuffer.GetBuffer(out pBuf);

        Marshal.Copy(Bytes, 0, pBuf, iBytes);

        pCallback.OnWritePlaylist(S_OK, pINSSBuffer, qwContext);
    }
    catch
    {
        pCallback.OnWritePlaylist(E_FAIL, pINSSBuffer, qwContext);
    }
}
