The capCaptureAbort macro stops the capture operation. You can use this macro or explicitly send the WM_CAP_ABORT message.

Syntax

void capCaptureAbort(
   hwnd
);

Parameters

hwnd

Handle to a capture window.

Return value

None

Remarks

The capture operation must yield to use this macro.

In the case of step capture, the image data collected up to the point of the capCaptureAbort macro will be retained in the capture file, but audio will not be captured.

Use the capCaptureStop macro to halt step capture at the current position, and then capture audio.
