IPhotoAcquireProgressCB::GetUserInput method (photoacquire.h)

The GetUserInput method overrides the default functionality that displays a message prompting the user for string input during acquisition. The application provides the implementation of the GetUserInput method.

Syntax

HRESULT GetUserInput(
  [in]  REFIID            riidType,
  [in]  IUnknown          *pUnknown,
  [out] PROPVARIANT       *pPropVarResult,
  [in]  const PROPVARIANT *pPropVarDefault
);

Parameters

[in] riidType

Specifies the interface ID of the prompt type. This may only be IID_IUserInputString.

[in] pUnknown

Pointer to an object of the prompt class. Currently, this must be an IUserInputString object.

[out] pPropVarResult

Pointer to a property variant object representing the descriptive input to be obtained. Must be freed by the caller using PropVariantClear.

If the application's implementation of GetUserInput returns a value other than E_NOTIMPL, the value of pPropVarDefault must be copied to the pPropVarResult parameter.

[in] pPropVarDefault

Pointer to a property variant object representing the default value of the input being requested.

Return value

The method returns an HRESULT. Your implementation is not limited to the following return values. Any failing HRESULT other than E_NOTIMPL is fatal and will cause the transfer to abort.

Remarks

If this method is implemented, the implementation should copy the value of the pPropVarDefault argument to the pPropVarResult parameter.

If this method returns an HRESULT other than E_NOTIMPL, the default dialog box that prompts the user will not be displayed.

If the progress dialog box is suppressed in IPhotoAcquire::Acquire, this method must be implemented in order to assign a default value to the pPropVarResult parameter. Normally a value is supplied to pPropVarResult in the course of prompting the user with the default dialog, but when the dialog is suppressed, the application must copy the value of the pPropVarDefault argument to the pPropVarResult parameter.
