ms937420.filter01(en-us,MSDN.10).gif

This is an abstract base class from which all filters are derived.

It supports the Component Object Model (COM) IBaseFilter interface and is derived from the CUnknown class. This class supports the enumeration of pins by calling the pure virtual member functions CBaseFilter::GetPin and GetPinCount. These member functions must be overridden by any derived class.

The CBaseFilter class assumes that all the filter's pins are derived from the CBasePin class. CBaseFilter::GetPin must return a pointer to CBasePin.

All member functions in this class that return HRESULT and accept a pointer as a parameter return E_POINTER when passed a null pointer.

Protected Data Members

Member Description
m_clsid Class identifier (CLSID) used for serialization using IPersist.
m_pClock Filter graph's reference clock.
m_pGraph Pointer to a graph to which this filter belongs.
m_PinVersion Current version of the pins used on the filter.
m_pLock Pointer to the critical section used for locking.
m_pName Filter name.
m_pSink Pointer to the IMediaEventSink interface on the filter graph manager.
m_State Current state: running or paused.
m_tStart Offset from the stream time to the reference time.

Member Functions

Member function Description
CBaseFilter Constructs a CBaseFilter object.
GetFilterGraph Returns the filter graph associated with the filter. This is used in the implementation of CEnumPins.
IncrementPinVersion Adds 1 to the pin version stored in m_PinVersion.
IsActive Determines if the filter is currently active (running or paused) or stopped.
NotifyEvent Sends an event notification to the filter graph.
ReconnectPin Requests pin for a reconnect.

Overrideable Member Functions

Member function Description
GetPin Returns a pointer to the requested pin.
GetPinCount Returns the number of pins currently available on this object.
GetPinVersion Returns the current version of the base filter for comparison with the version with which the pin was initialized.

This member function can be overridden if pins are being created dynamically.

GetSetupData Retrieves the registration data associated with the filter.
StreamTime Returns the current stream time.

Implemented IPersist Methods

Method Description
GetClassID Returns the class identifier of this filter.

Implemented IMediaFilter Methods

Method Description
GetState Retrieves the current state of the filter.
GetSyncSource Retrieves the current reference clock in use by this filter.
Pause Instructs the filter to transition to State_Paused state.
Run Instructs the filter to transition to State_Running state.

Passes a time value to synchronize independent streams.

SetSyncSource Informs the filter of the reference clock with which it should synchronize activity.
Stop Instructs the filter to transition to the State_Stopped state.

Implemented IBaseFilter Methods

Method Description
EnumPins Provides an enumerator for this pin's preferred media types (implemented by this class).
FindPin Retrieves the pin with the specified identifier.
JoinFilterGraph Notifies a filter that it has joined a filter graph (implemented by this class).
QueryFilterInfo Gets information about the specified filter (implemented by this class).
QueryVendorInfo Retrieves optional information supplied by a vendor for the specified filter.

Implemented IAMovieSetup Methods

Method Description
Register Adds the filter to the registry.
Unregister Removes the filter from the registry.

Implemented INonDelegatingUnknown Methods

Method Description
NonDelegatingQueryInterface Passes out pointers to any interfaces added to the derived filter class.

Requirements

DirectShow applications and DirectShow filters have different include file and link library requirements.
