ILTDVDBurner::get_State

#include "ILTDVDBurner2.h"

C Syntax	HRESULT ILTDVDBurner_get_State(pDVDBurner, pVal)
C++ Syntax	HRESULT get_State(pVal)

ILTDVDBurner *pDVDBurner;	pointer to an interface
long *pVal;	pointer to a variable

Retrieves the burner state.

Parameter	Description
pDVDBurner	Pointer to an ILTDVDBurner interface.
pVal	Pointer to a variable to be updated with the burner state. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	LTDVDBurner_State_Idle	[0] The burner is in the idle state. Operations and checks that require the burner to be in the idle state can be performed now.
	LTDVDBurner_State_Writing	[1] The burner is performing a writing operation. Certain operations and checks cannot be performed while the burner is in this state.
	LTDVDBurner_State_TestWriting	[2] The burner is performing a writing test. Certain operations and checks cannot be performed while the burner is in this state.
	LTDVDBurner_State_Erasing	[3] The burner is performing an erasing operation. Certain operations and checks cannot be performed while the burner is in this state.

S_OK	The function was successful.
<> S_OK	An error occurred. Refer to the Error Codes or the HRESULT error codes in the DirectShow documentation.
