Sets the window to receive window messages sent to the video renderer.

Syntax

HRESULT put_MessageDrain(
  OAHWND 
Drain
);

Parameters

Drain

Window to post messages to.

Return Value

Returns an HRESULTvalue.

Remarks

Messages sent to the video renderer filter can be posted to another window. This member function registers the window to receive these messages.

Unlike the CBaseControlWindow::put_Ownermember function, this member function does not make the video window a child of another window.

It is particularly useful for full-screen video renderers, which cannot be child windows.

Requirements

Windows Embedded CE Windows CE 3.0 and later
Windows Mobile Windows Mobile Version 5.0 and later
Note Microsoft DirectShow applications and DirectShow filters have different include file and Library requirements
