IWMSDirectory.GetChildInfo (C#)

The GetChildInfo method retrieves information about a specific media element in a directory.

void IWMSDirectory.GetChildInfo(
  uint dwIndex,
  ref WMSDirectoryEntryInfo pInfo
);

Arguments

uint containing the index number of the media element.

Reference to a WMSDirectoryEntryInfo structure that contains information about the media element.

Return Value

This method does not return a value. To report an error, the plug-in can throw a COMException object to the server. If the plug-in uses the IWMSEventLogIWMSEventLog Object (C#) to log error information, it is recommended that it throw NS_E_PLUGIN_ERROR_REPORTED (0xC00D157D). Typically, the server attempts to make plug-in error information available to the server object model, the Windows Event Viewer, and the troubleshooting list in the details pane of the Windows Media Services MMC. However, if the plug-in uses the IWMSEventLog object to send custom error information to the Windows Event Viewer, throwing NS_E_PLUGIN_ERROR_REPORTED stops the server from also logging to the event viewer. For more information about plug-in error information, see Identifying Plug-in Errors.

Remarks

The information that can be retrieved from the GetChildInfo method is dependent upon your implementation.
