CMediaControl Class

CMediaControl Class Hierarchy

The CMediaControl class provides base class handling of the IDispatch methods of the dual-interface IMediaControl. It leaves as pure virtual the properties and methods of the IMediaControl interface.

Typically, the filter graph manager is the only object that implements the IMediaControl interface. (filters implement the IMediaFilter interface, inherited by IBaseFilter, to receive control commands from the filter graph manager.) Therefore, this class library is of limited use to filter developers.

The CMediaControl::GetIDsOfNames, CMediaControl::GetTypeInfo, CMediaControl::GetTypeInfoCount, and CMediaControl::Invoke member functions are standard implementations of the IDispatch methods using the CBaseDispatch class (and a type library) to parse the commands and pass them to the pure virtual methods of the IMediaControl interface.

The IMediaControl methods, defined in control.odl, are left as pure virtual.

Member Functions

CMediaControl Constructs a CMediaControl object.

Implemented IDispatch Methods

GetIDsOfNames Maps a single member and an optional set of parameters to a corresponding set of integer dispatch identifiers (DISPIDs), which can be used during subsequent calls to the CMediaControl::Invoke method.
GetTypeInfo Retrieves a type-information object, which can retrieve the type information for an interface.
GetTypeInfoCount Retrieves the number of type-information interfaces provided by an object.
Invoke Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object.
