CAMThread.CAMThread constructor

[The feature associated with this page, DirectShow, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation. Those features have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation instead of DirectShow, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]

Constructor method.

Syntax

CAMThread(
   HRESULT *phr = NULL
);

Parameters

phr

Pointer to an HRESULT value. If the constructor fails, this parameter receives an error code. If this occurs, the object is not in a valid state.

For backward compatibility with earlier versions of strmbase.lib, this parameter defaults to NULL. However, passing a non-NULL value is preferred, so that the caller can check the status of the object.

Remarks

The constructor method does not create the thread. To create the thread, call the CAMThread::Create method.

Requirements

Requirement Value
Header
Wxutil.h (include Streams.h)
Library
