CBaseControlWindow Class (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

NOT SUPPORTED IN DXPAK 1.0

This class implements the IVideoWindow interface and controls external access to its associated filter.

You must synchronize the CBaseControlWindow object with the filter by passing it a pointer to a critical section synchronization object. For more information about critical section synchronization objects, see the Windows SDK.

The CBaseControlWindow class provides a number of methods that return property settings without dealing with this critical section. For example, calling CBaseControlWindow::get_AutoShow to retrieve the value of the m_bAutoShow data member locks the critical section.

The filter might already have a locked internal critical section, however, which could violate the filter's lock hierarchy. Instead, calling the CBaseControlWindow::IsAutoShowEnabled member function returns the required value without affecting the critical section.

All CBaseControlWindow implemented IVideoWindow methods require that the filter be connected correctly with its upstream filter. For this reason, class objects require a synchronization pin, which you set by calling the CBaseControlWindow::SetControlWindowPin method.

Whenever you call an IVideoWindow method, the CBaseControlWindow object checks that the pin is still connected.
