mmioFOURCC  LB8NGB

The mmioFOURCC macro converts four characters into a four-character code.

FOURCC mmioFOURCC(

    CHAR ch0,

 

    CHAR ch1,

 

    CHAR ch2,

 

    CHAR ch3

 

   );

 

 

Parameters

ch0, ch1, ch2, and ch3

First, second, third, and fourth characters of the four-character code.

 

Return Values

Returns the four-character code created from the given characters.

Remarks

This macro does not check whether the four-character code it returns is valid.

The mmioFOURCC macro is defined as follows:

#define mmioFOURCC(ch0, ch1, ch2, ch3) \

    MAKEFOURCC(ch0, ch1, ch2, ch3);

 

The MAKEFOURCC macro, in turn, is defined as follows:

#define MAKEFOURCC(ch0, ch1, ch2, ch3)  \

    ((DWORD)(BYTE)(ch0) | ((DWORD)(BYTE)(ch1) << 8) |  \

    ((DWORD)(BYTE)(ch2) << 16) | ((DWORD)(BYTE)(ch3) << 24 ));
