Recording with MCIWnd Controls

The following example records waveform audio using the built-in controls of the MCIWnd window. The example creates an MCIWnd window by using the MCIWNDF_RECORD window style with the MCIWndCreate_T_JCT function to add a Record button to the toolbar. The MCIWndNew1Y3SUEO macro indicates a new file is associated with the MCIWnd window and that a waveform-audio device will provide its content. A second menu command, IDM_SAVEMCIWND, lets the user save the recording and select a filename by using the MCIWndSaveDialogHUM4W9 macro.

case WM_COMMAND:

    switch (wParam) { 

    case IDM_CREATEMCIWND:

        g_hwndMCIWnd = MCIWndCreate(hwnd, g_hinst,

            WS_VISIBLE | MCIWNDF_RECORD, NULL);

        MCIWndNew(g_hwndMCIWnd, "waveaudio");

        break;  

    case IDM_SAVEMCIWND:

        MCIWndSaveDialog(g_hwndMCIWnd);

        break;

    }
