TargetFile Property

Summary

Gets or sets the media target filename.

Syntax

C++/CLI

[EditorAttribute(System.Type, System.Type)] 
public virtual string TargetFile { get; set; }

public: 
virtual property String^ TargetFile { 
   String^ get(); 
   void set (    String^ ); 
}

Property Value

A string value representing the target filename.

Remarks

This property allows the user to set the output of the conversion process to specified filename.the TargetFile property contains the name of a media file. If the TargetFile property refers to a directory, it should contain the full path to the directory. A relative path can be used, but it is not recommended because relative paths are somewhat unpredictable. The filename can be used to indicate a regular file or a stream. Assignment can raise an error exception. For more information, refer to the Error Codes.

Example

public bool _result = false; 
public ConvertCtrlForm _form = new ConvertCtrlForm(); 
 
public void HasDialogExample() 
{ 
   // reference the convert control 
   ConvertCtrl convertctrl = _form.ConvertCtrl; 
 
   // input and output files 
   string inFile = Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.MediaDir, "ConvertCtrl_Source.avi"); 
   string outFile = Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.MediaDir, "ConvertCtrl_HasDialogExample.wmv"); 
 
   try 
   { 
      // set the source for conversion 
      convertctrl.SourceFile = inFile; 
 
      // select the target format 
      convertctrl.TargetFormat = TargetFormatType.WMV; 
 
      // select video and audio target formats for the output 
      int index = -1;

      // The HasDialog method tells us that the control 
      // can display the desired settings dialog. 
      // check to see if the convert source dialog is available 
      if (convertctrl.HasDialog(ConvertDlg.TargetFormat)) 
      { 
         // now show it

         _result = true; 
      } 
 
      // start the capture process 
      convertctrl.StartConvert(); 
 
      // we'll loop on the state and pump messages for this example. 
      // but you should not need to if running from a Windows Forms application. 
      while (convertctrl.State == ConvertState.Running) 
         Application.DoEvents(); 
 
      // see if there was an error 
      if (convertctrl.ConvertError != 0) 
      { 
         // set the result to false 
         _result = false; 
      } 
   } 
   catch (Exception) 
   { 
      _result = false; 
   }
