IWMSDataContainer.Read (Visual Basic .NET)
The server calls the Read method to read data from the data container into a buffer.
IWMSDataContainer.Read( ByRef pbBuffer As Byte(),
qwOffset As UInt64,
dwMaxDataSize As UInt32,
dwFlags As UInt32,
pCallback As IWMSDataContainerCallback,
qwContext As UInt64
)
Arguments
Reference to a Byte array identifying the buffer to be filled with data from the data container. |
|
UInt64 specifying the offset in bytes from which the data should be read. This must be WMS_DATA_CONTAINER_NONSEEKABLE for data containers that do not support seeking. For example, a live source cannot be seekable, but a file can be. |
|
UInt32 specifying the maximum data size in bytes to be read from the data container. |
|
Reserved for future use. |
|
IWMSDataContainerCallbackIWMSDataContainerCallback Object (Visual Basic .NET) containing the callback function. The plug-in calls IWMSDataContainerCallback.OnRead to respond to the server. |
|
UInt64 containing a value defined by the server to identify which Read request the plug-in is responding to when it calls IWMSDataContainerCallback.OnRead. The plug-in must pass this value back unaltered. |
Return Value
This method does not return a value. To report an error, the plug-in can throw a COMException object to the server. If the plug-in uses the IWMSEventLogIWMSEventLog Object (Visual Basic .NET) to log error information, it is recommended that it throw NS_E_PLUGIN_ERROR_REPORTED (0xC00D157D). Typically, the server attempts to make plug-in error information available to the server object model, the Windows Event Viewer, and the troubleshooting list in the details pane of the Windows Media Services MMC. However, if the plug-in uses the IWMSEventLog object to send custom error information to the Windows Event Viewer, throwing NS_E_PLUGIN_ERROR_REPORTED stops the server from also logging to the event viewer.
