CBaseWindow Class
| Microsoft DirectShow 9.0 |
CBaseWindow Class
The CBaseWindow class is a base class for managing windows. Video renderers can use this class to create video windows. To use this class, create a derived class that inherits from CBaseWindow. In the derived class:
- Implement the pure virtual method CBaseWindow::GetClassWindowStyles, which defines the window styles.
- Override the CBaseWindow::OnReceiveMessage method, which handles window messages.
- Implement a destructor that calls the CBaseWindow::DoneWithWindow method.
Before using an instance of the derived class, call the CBaseWindow::PrepareWindow method.
Requirements
** Header:** Declared in Winutil.h; include Streams.h.
** Library:** Use Strmbase.lib (retail builds) or Strmbasd.lib (debug builds).
