CBasePin.SetReconnectWhenActive method

[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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.]

The SetReconnectWhenActive method specifies whether the pin supports dynamic reconnections.

Syntax

void SetReconnectWhenActive(
   bool bCanReconnect
);

Parameters

bCanReconnect

Boolean value that specifies whether the pin can dynamically reconnect. If TRUE, the pin can dynamically reconnect.

Return value

This method does not return a value.

Remarks

By default, you must stop a filter before reconnecting any of its pins. If the pin can reconnect while the filter is active, call this method with a value of TRUE. For more information, see Dynamic Graph Building.
