Hi, i'm trying to enumerate any present sound devices using direct sound, so that if someone has more than 1 sound card they can choose which one they want, using a combobox which i fill in with each device.
I'm using DirectSoundEnumerate which uses a callback to get the info on any sound devices, and then in the callback function i send messages to the combobox to add items. It's basically exactly the same as the enumerate sample which comes with the directx sdk.
The values are placed in the combobox, however when i go to select one i get an exception
InvalidArgument=Value of '1' is not valid for 'index'.
or value of '0' is not valid if i choose the first one.
It seems the indexes aren't updating for some reason. The code is as follows
Heres there call to DirectSoundEnumerate, parameter 1 is the callback function, and two is the handle of my combobox for use later.
DirectSoundEnumerate(DSEnumProc2, (VOID*)this->comboBox1->Handle.ToPointer());
and heres the callback, lpContext is the handle of the combobox, so i can send messages to it.
BOOL CALLBACK DSEnumProc2(GUID* pGUID,
LPCSTR lpszDesc,
LPCSTR lpszDrvName,
LPVOID lpContext )
{
// Set aside static storage space for 20 audio drivers
static GUID AudioDriverGUIDs[20];
static DWORD dwAudioDriverIndex = 0;
GUID* pTemp = NULL;
if( pGUID )
{
if( dwAudioDriverIndex >= 20 )
return TRUE;
pTemp = &AudioDriverGUIDs[dwAudioDriverIndex++];
memcpy( pTemp, pGUID, sizeof(GUID) );
}
HWND hSoundDeviceCombo = (HWND)lpContext;
// Add the string to the combo box
SendMessage( hSoundDeviceCombo, CB_ADDSTRING,
0, (LPARAM) (LPCTSTR) lpszDesc );
// Get the index of the string in the combo box
INT nIndex = (INT)SendMessage( hSoundDeviceCombo, CB_FINDSTRING,
0, (LPARAM) (LPCTSTR) lpszDesc );
// Set the item data to a pointer to the static guid stored in
//AudioDriverGUIDs
SendMessage( hSoundDeviceCombo, CB_SETITEMDATA,
nIndex, (LPARAM) pTemp );
return TRUE;
}
From setting afew breakpoints i know the following:
-The handle for the combobox is being passed correctly, thus hSoundDeviceCombo is correct.
-The messages are getting through, since the combobox gets filled in, and the return codes from the 3 SendMessage calls are OK.
-The value of nIndex is correct i.e. it's being set to 0, 1 etc.
-Heres the issue, i looked at the combobox in the debugger after the callbacks were done, and the Count property = 0 (ie. it thinks there is no items) and the Items field won't show the strings and has a big red exclamation mark next to it saying it can't retrieve the info, even though the correct strings are showing in the program.
Is there something i've forgotten to do? This code is exactly the same as the sdk example and their one works ok.. Maybe because i'm sending it messages directly instead of using combobox->AddString(..) it's not updating properly? but i don't have direct access to my combobox from the callback. Using VSEE C++, DX9.
Any ideas on this?
