IDirectMusicPerformance8::InitAudio
The InitAudio method initializes the performance and optionally sets up a default audiopath. This method must be called before the performance can play using audiopaths.
This method should be used in most cases instead of IDirectMusicPerformance8::Init.
Syntax
HRESULT InitAudio(
IDirectMusic** ppDirectMusic,
IDirectSound** ppDirectSound,
HWND hWnd,
DWORD dwDefaultPathType,
DWORD dwPChannelCount,
DWORD dwFlags,
DMUS_AUDIOPARAMS *pParams
);
Parameters
ppDirectMusic
Address of a variable that specifies or receives an interface pointer to a DirectMusic object.
If the variable pointed to by ppDirectMusic contains a valid IDirectMusic or IDirectMusic8 interface pointer, the existing object is assigned to the performance. The reference count of the interface is incremented.
If the variable pointed to by ppDirectMusic contains NULL, a DirectMusic object is created and the IDirectMusic interface pointer is returned. Use QueryInterface to obtain IDirectMusic8.
If ppDirectMusic is NULL, a DirectMusic object is created and used internally by the performance.
See Remarks.
ppDirectSound
Address of a variable that specifies or receives an IDirectSound interface pointer for a DirectSound device object to use by default for waveform output. If this parameter contains a NULL pointer, DirectMusic creates a private DirectSound device object. If the variable pointed to contains NULL, DirectMusic creates a DirectSound device object and returns the interface pointer. See Remarks.
hWnd
Window handle to use for the creation of DirectSound. This parameter can be NULL, in which case the foreground window is used. See Remarks.
This parameter is ignored if an IDirectSound interface pointer is passed to the method in ppDirectSound. In that case the application is responsible for setting the window handle by using IDirectSound8::SetCooperativeLevel.
dwDefaultPathType
Value that specifies the default audiopath type. Can be zero if no default path type is wanted. For a list of defined values, see IDirectMusicPerformance8::CreateStandardAudioPath.
dwPChannelCount
Value that specifies the number of
dwFlags
Flags that specify requested features. If pParams is not NULL, this value is ignored and the requested features are specified in the dwFeatures member of the DMUS_AUDIOPARAMS structure. The values listed in the following table are defined for use in this parameter.
| Value | Description |
| DMUS_AUDIOF_3D | 3-D buffers. This flag is not implemented. Buffers in 3-D audiopaths always have 3-D capabilities. |
| DMUS_AUDIOF_ALL | All features. |
| DMUS_AUDIOF_BUFFERS | Multiple buffers. |
| DMUS_AUDIOF_DMOS | Additional DMOs. This flag is not implemented. |
| DMUS_AUDIOF_ENVIRON | Environmental modeling. This flag is not implemented. |
| DMUS_AUDIOF_EAX | Support for Environmental Audio Extensions (EAX). This flag is not implemented. |
| DMUS_AUDIOF_STREAMING | Support for streaming waveforms. |
pParams
Address of a DMUS_AUDIOPARAMS structure that specifies parameters for the synthesizer and receives information about what parameters were set. Can be NULL if the default parameters are wanted.
Return Values
If the method succeeds, the return value is S_OK.
If it fails, the method can return one of the error values shown in the following table.
| Return code |
| DMUS_E_ALREADY_INITED |
| DSERR_BUFFERLOST |
| DSERR_PRIOLEVELNEEDED |
| DSERR_UNINITIALIZED |
| E_NOINTERFACE |
| E_OUTOFMEMORY |
| E_POINTER |
Remarks
This method can be called only once. It cannot be used to retrieve an existing IDirectMusic8 interface.
A DirectMusic object can be associated with the performance in the following ways.
- The application allows the performance to create the DirectMusic object and needs a pointer to that object. In this case, *ppDirectMusic is NULL on entry and contains the IDirectMusic pointer on exit.
- The application allows the performance to initialize itself and does not need a DirectMusic object pointer. In this case, ppDirectMusic is NULL.
- The application creates its own DirectMusic object and gives it to the performance by passing the address of the IDirectMusic8 pointer in ppDirectMusic. Most applications do not use this technique.
If you specify an interface pointer in ppDirectSound, it must be an interface to an object of class CLSID_DirectSound8. Objects of this class support both IDirectSound and IDirectSound8, but the IDirectSound interface must be passed. The DirectSound device object must be fully initialized before being passed to InitAudio. If the object was created by using CoCreateInstance, call IDirectSound8::Initialize. Set the cooperative level to DSSCL_PRIORITY by using IDirectSound8::SetCooperativeLevel.
You can pass NULL in the hWnd parameter to pass the current foreground window handle to DirectSound. However, do not assume that the application window will be in the foreground during initialization. It is best to pass the top-level application window handle.
The parameters set in dwFlags and pParams apply to the default audiopath and any audiopaths created subsequently.
The method fails with DSERR_BUFFERLOST if a value other than zero is passed in dwDefaultPathType and any application has initialized DirectSound with the write-primary cooperative level.
The performance must be terminated by using the IDirectMusicPerformance8::CloseDown method before being released.
