IMediaLocator::AddFoundLocation 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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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.]
Note
[Deprecated. This API may be removed from future releases of Windows.]
The AddFoundLocation method adds a directory to the directory cache.
Syntax
HRESULT AddFoundLocation(
BSTR DirectoryName
);
Parameters
-
DirectoryName
-
Directory path to add to the cache.
Return value
If this method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns an HRESULT error code.
Remarks
The media locator keeps a cache of directory paths where it has successfully found files in past searches. When it successfully locates a file, it adds the directory to the cache.
Note
The header file Qedit.h is not compatible with Direct3D headers later than version 7.
Note
To obtain Qedit.h, download the Microsoft Windows SDK Update for Windows Vista and .NET Framework 3.0. Qedit.h is not available in the Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1.
