CBaseControlVideo.SetTargetRect method

[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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.]

The SetTargetRect method sets the current target rectangle (pure virtual). This is an internal member function that gets called when the destination rectangle changes.

Syntax

virtual HRESULT SetTargetRect(
   RECT *pTargetRect
) = 0;

Parameters

pTargetRect

Pointer to the destination rectangle.

Return value

Returns an HRESULT value.

Remarks

Derived classes should override this to know when the destination rectangle changes. It is called from the following member functions.

• CBaseControlVideo::SetDestinationPosition
• CBaseControlVideo::put_DestinationLeft
• CBaseControlVideo::put_DestinationWidth
• CBaseControlVideo::put_DestinationTop
• CBaseControlVideo::put_DestinationHeight

The following example demonstrates an implementation of this function in a derived class.

HRESULT CVideoText::SetTargetRect(RECT *pTargetRect)
{
    m_pRenderer->m_DrawImage.SetTargetRect(pTargetRect);
    return NOERROR;
}

In this example, CVideoText is a class derived from CBaseControlVideo, m_pRenderer holds an object of a class derived from CBaseVideoRenderer, and the m_DrawImage data member, defined in the derived class, holds a CDrawImage object.

Requirements
