The get_Count method retrieves the number of IWMSActiveStream interfaces in the IWMSActiveStreams collection.

Syntax

  HRESULT get_Count(
  long*  pVal
);

Parameters

pVal

[out] Pointer to a long containing the number of IWMSActiveStream interfaces in the collection.

Return Values

If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an HRESULT error code.

Return code Number Description
E_POINTER 0x80004003 pVal is a NULL pointer argument.

Example Code

#include <windows.h>
#include <atlbase.h>    // Includes CComVariant.
#include "wmsserver.h"

// Declare variables and interfaces.

// NOTE: A valid playlist file is not always returned. This may be
// the case, for example, if the user requested a specific content
// file or if a broadcast publishing point is being used.

if (FAILED(hr)) goto EXIT;
if (pPlaylist != NULL)

    // Retrieve a pointer to the IWMSActiveStreams interface.
    hr = pActiveMedia->get_Streams(&pActiveStreams);
    if (FAILED(hr)) goto EXIT;

    // Retrieve the total number of active streams.
    hr = pActiveStreams->get_Count(&lCount);
    if (FAILED(hr)) goto EXIT;

EXIT:
