Recording with MCIWnd Controls

The following example records waveform audio using the built-in controls of the MCIWnd window. The example creates an MCIWnd window by using the MCIWNDF_RECORD window style with the MCIWndCreate function to add a Record button to the toolbar. The MCIWndNew macro indicates a new file is associated with the MCIWnd window and that a waveform-audio device will provide its content. A second menu command, IDM_SAVEMCIWND, lets the user save the recording and select a filename by using the MCIWndSaveDialog macro.

case WM_COMMAND: 
    switch (wParam) { 
    case IDM_CREATEMCIWND: 
        g_hwndMCIWnd = MCIWndCreate(hwnd, g_hinst, 
            WS_VISIBLE | MCIWNDF_RECORD, NULL); 
        MCIWndNew(g_hwndMCIWnd, "waveaudio"); 
        break;    
    case IDM_SAVEMCIWND: 
        MCIWndSaveDialog(g_hwndMCIWnd); 
        break; 
    }
