waveInStop function (mmeapi.h)

The waveInStop function stops waveform-audio input.

Syntax

MMRESULT waveInStop(
  HWAVEIN hwi
);

Parameters

hwi

Handle to the waveform-audio input device.

Return value

Returns MMSYSERR_NOERROR if successful or an error otherwise. Possible error values include the following.

Return code Description
MMSYSERR_INVALHANDLE
Specified device handle is invalid.
MMSYSERR_NODRIVER
No device driver is present.
MMSYSERR_NOMEM
Unable to allocate or lock memory.

Remarks

If there are any buffers in the queue, the current buffer will be marked as done (the dwBytesRecorded member in the header will contain the length of data), but any empty buffers in the queue will remain there.

Calling this function when input is not started has no effect, and the function returns zero.
