CBasePin::AttemptConnection
The AttemptConnection method connects to another pin using a specified media type.
Syntax
virtual HRESULT AttemptConnection( IPin *pReceivePin, const CMediaType *pmt );
Parameters
pReceivePin
Pointer to the receiving pin's IPin interface.
pmt
Pointer to a CMediaType object that specifies the media type.
Return Value
Returns an HRESULT value. Possible values include those in the following table.
Value | Description |
S_OK | Success. |
VFW_E_TYPE_NOT_ACCEPTED | The media type is not acceptable. |
Remarks
This method attempts to connect the two pins with a specific media type. If the type is not acceptable, the method fails without trying other media types.
If the media type is acceptable, this method calls the receiving pin's IPin::ReceiveConnection method. Then it calls the CBasePin::CompleteConnect method to complete the connection.
Requirements
** Header:** Declared in Amfilter.h; include Streams.h.
** Library:** Use Strmbase.lib (retail builds) or Strmbasd.lib (debug builds).
