How to playing a video in my own window

This example shows how you can playing a video in your own window.

(without the VideoCore Player)

Example using the implementation class

#include <windows.h>
// We are including the main header file it that contains
// the implementation class.
#include <ceVideoCoreImpl.h>
#include <cstdio> // For printf.

// We are using the namespace "ce" (CorEngine) by default (Optional).
using namespace ce;

// We are creating our own manager class, inheriting the implementation class.
class CVideoManager : public IVideoManagerImpl<CVideoManager>
{
  public:

    inline void Example(void) const
    {
      // Load a video file.
      this -> Video -> LoadVideoFile("video1.mpg", 
        CE_VIDEO_NOPLAYBAR | CE_VIDEO_NOMENU | CE_VIDEO_AUTOPLAY);
    };

    // Operator -> (Optional).
    const CVideoManager* operator -> (void) const
    { return this; };

};

::LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProcedure(::HWND, ::UINT, ::WPARAM, ::LPARAM);

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  // --- Create a window ---

  ::WNDCLASSEX wincl;
  ::ZeroMemory(&wincl, sizeof(::WNDCLASSEX));

  wincl.cbSize        = sizeof(::WNDCLASSEX);
  wincl.hInstance     = ::GetModuleHandle(NULL);
  wincl.lpszClassName = "VideoCoreExample";
  wincl.hbrBackground = (::HBRUSH) COLOR_BACKGROUND;
  wincl.lpfnWndProc   = WindowProcedure;

  if (!::RegisterClassEx(&wincl)) return 1;

  ::HWND hWnd = ::CreateWindowEx(0, wincl.lpszClassName, "VideoCore Example",
    WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW | WS_CLIPCHILDREN, 
    CW_USEDEFAULT, CW_USEDEFAULT, 512, 384,
    HWND_DESKTOP, NULL, wincl.hInstance, NULL);

  if (hWnd == NULL)
  { ::UnregisterClass(wincl.lpszClassName, wincl.hInstance); return 1; }

  ::ShowWindow(hWnd, SW_SHOWDEFAULT);

  // --- VideoCore ---

  // We are creating a instance of our manager class.
  const CVideoManager Video;

  // Verify the integrity of the manager class (Optional).
  if (Video -> VerifyVideoManager() == 0)
  { ::UnregisterClass(wincl.lpszClassName, wincl.hInstance); return 1; }

  // This method registers a window for subsequent use in calls
  // to the CreateVideoWindow() method.
  Video -> RegisterVideoWindow(wincl.hInstance, hWnd);

  Video -> Example();

  // --- Main loop ---

  ::MSG msg;
  while (!::GetMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0) < 1)
  {
    ::TranslateMessage(&msg);
    ::DispatchMessage(&msg);
  }

  // Release all the videos (Optional).
  Video -> ReleaseAllVideos();

  ::UnregisterClass(wincl.lpszClassName, wincl.hInstance);

  return 0;
}

::LRESULT CALLBACK
  WindowProcedure(::HWND hWnd, ::UINT message, ::WPARAM wParam, ::LPARAM lParam)
{
  switch (message)
  {
    case WM_DESTROY: ::PostQuitMessage(0); break;
    default: return ::DefWindowProc(hWnd, message, wParam, lParam);
  } return 0;
}

Example using the interface class

#include <windows.h>

#include <ceVideoCore.h>
#include <cstdio> // For printf.

// We are using the namespace "ce" (CorEngine) by default (Optional).
