LoadSettingsFromStream Method (CaptureCtrl)

Loads settings from a stream.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#
WinRT C#
WinRT JavaScript
C++

public virtual void LoadSettingsFromStream( 
   Stream sourceStream,
   CaptureSettings flags
)

'Declaration
 
Public Overridable Sub LoadSettingsFromStream( _
   ByVal sourceStream As Stream, _
   ByVal flags As CaptureSettings _
)

'Usage
 
Dim instance As CaptureCtrl
Dim sourceStream As Stream
Dim flags As CaptureSettings
 
instance.LoadSettingsFromStream(sourceStream, flags)

public virtual void LoadSettingsFromStream( 
   Stream sourceStream,
   CaptureSettings flags
)

 function Leadtools.Multimedia.CaptureCtrl.LoadSettingsFromStream( 
   sourceStream ,
   flags 
)

public:
virtual void LoadSettingsFromStream( 
   Stream^ sourceStream,
   CaptureSettings flags
)

Parameters

sourceStream: The stream containing the saved settings to load.
flags: The settings flags specifying which settings to load. See the CaptureSettings enumeration for settings options.

Remarks

Loads settings from a stream. This reconstructs the capture configuration based on the settings loaded from the specified stream. The capture control settings can be saved to a stream by calling SaveSettingsToStream. Settings can also be saved to a file by calling SaveSettingsToFile. Settings saved to a stream can be loaded using LoadSettingsFromStream.
