IWMSPlugin.LoadType (C#)

The LoadType property specifies and retrieves an enumeration value that indicates whether the server loads authentication, event notification, and authorization plug-ins as in-process or out-of-process objects.

Plugin.LoadType = WMS_PLUGIN_LOAD_TYPE;
WMS_PLUGIN_LOAD_TYPE = Plugin.LoadType;

Property Value

A member of a WMS_PLUGIN_LOAD_TYPE enumeration type. This must be one of the following values.

Value	Description
WMS_PLUGIN_LOAD_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED	The server determines whether to load the plug-in as an in-process or out-of-process object.
WMS_PLUGIN_LOAD_TYPE_IN_PROC	The plug-in is loaded as an in-process object.
WMS_PLUGIN_LOAD_TYPE_OUT_OF_PROC	The plug-in is loaded as an out-of-process object.

If this property fails, it throws an exception.

Number	Description
0xC00D1453L	The load type is not supported by the plug-in.

Remarks

If this property is set to WMS_PLUGIN_LOAD_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED, the server loads plug-ins as in-process objects. However, if the UnsupportedLoadType property of a plug-in specifies that it cannot be loaded in-process, the plug-in will be loaded out-of-process.

Example

using Microsoft.WindowsMediaServices.Interop;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

// Declare variables.
WMSServer          Server;
IWMSPlugins        Plugins;
IWMSPlugin         Plugin;

try {
    // Create a new WMSServer object.
    Server = new WMSServerClass();

    // Retrieve the IWMSPlugins object.
    Plugins = Server.Authenticators;

    // Retrieve information about each plug-in.
    for (int i = 0; i < Plugins.Count; i++)
    {
        Plugin = Plugins[i];

        // Retrieve the plug-in load type.
        WMS_PLUGIN_LOAD_TYPE ltLoadType;
        ltLoadType = Plugin.LoadType;
        if (ltLoadType != WMS_PLUGIN_LOAD_TYPE.WMS_PLUGIN_LOAD_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED) 
        {
            Plugin.LoadType = WMS_PLUGIN_LOAD_TYPE.WMS_PLUGIN_LOAD_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED;
        }
    }
}
catch (COMException comExc) {
    // TODO: Handle COM exceptions.
}
catch (Exception e) {
    // TODO: Handle exceptions.
}
