The IDirectDrawStreamSample interface provides methods that set and retrieve pointers to the DirectDraw surface associated with the current stream sample.
When to Implement
This interface isn't intended for implementation by application developers. It is exposed by sample objects created by the DirectDraw stream.
When to Use
Use this interface when applications need to set clipping rectangles and retrieve the rendering surface for DirectDraw stream samples.
Methods in Vtable Order
IUnknown methods | Description |
QueryInterface | Retrieves pointers to supported interfaces. |
AddRef | Increments the reference count. |
Release | Decrements the reference count. |
IDirectDrawStreamSample methods | Description |
GetSurface | Retrieves pointers to the current sample's DirectDraw surface and associated clipping rectangle. |
SetRect | Changes the clipping rectangle for a sample. |
Retrieves pointers to the current sample's DirectDraw surface and associated clipping rectangle.
HRESULT GetSurface(
IDirectDrawSurface ** ppDirectDrawSurface,
RECT * pRect
);
Returns S_OK if successful.
Both parameters are optional. All implementations of this interface must support null values as valid parameters. If you retrieve a surface pointer, this method increments its reference count, so you must release the reference.
Changes the clipping rectangle for a sample.
HRESULT SetRect (
const RECT * pRect
)
Returns one of the following values.
Value | Meaning |
DDERR_INVALIDPIXELFORMAT | The stream isn't compatible with the pixel format. |
DDERR_INVALIDRECT | The specified rectangle is invalid. |
DDERR_INVALIDSURFACETYPE | The stream isn't compatible with the surface. |
E_POINTER | One of the pointers is invalid. |
MS_E_SAMPLEALLOC | The stream format doesn't match the surface and samples are currently allocated to the stream. |
S_OK | Success. |
Both parameters are optional; set either to NULL to avoid changing that value. If the surface format doesn't match the stream format, this method fails.
If the new rectangle's size isn't the same as the current rectangle, a call to this method will fail.
