CBasePin::m_pName member

  • Article

[The feature associated with this page, DirectShow, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation. Those features have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation instead of DirectShow, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]

Pin name.

Syntax

WCHAR *m_pName;

Remarks

The CBasePin::QueryPinInfo method returns this string as the pin name, and the CBasePin::QueryId method returns it as the pin identifier. In general, however, the pin name and the pin identifier are not required to be the same. The pin identifier is used for graph persistence. For more information, see IBaseFilter::FindPin.
