IMFTrackedSample::SetAllocator method (mfidl.h)
Sets the owner for the sample.
Syntax
HRESULT SetAllocator(
[in] IMFAsyncCallback *pSampleAllocator,
[in] IUnknown *pUnkState
);
Parameters
[in] pSampleAllocator
Pointer to the IMFAsyncCallback interface of a callback object. The caller must implement this interface.
[in] pUnkState
Pointer to the IUnknown interface of a state object, defined by the caller. This parameter can be NULL. You can use this object to hold state information. The object is returned to the caller when the callback is invoked.
Return value
The method returns an HRESULT. Possible values include, but are not limited to, those in the following table.
Return code | Description |
---|---|
|
The method succeeded. |
|
The owner was already set. This method cannot be called twice on the sample. |
Remarks
When this method is called, the sample holds an additional reference count on itself. When every other object releases its reference counts on the sample, the sample invokes the pSampleAllocator callback method. To get a pointer to the sample, call IMFAsyncResult::GetObject on the asynchronous result object given to the callback's IMFAsyncCallback::Invoke method.
After the callback is invoked, the sample clears the callback. To reinstate the callback, you must call SetAllocator again.
It is safe to pass in the sample's IMFSample interface pointer as the state object (pUnkState) for the callback. If pUnkState points to the sample, the SetAllocator method accounts for the additional reference count on pUnkState.
