IWMSEventNotificationPlugin.OnEvent (C#)

The server calls the OnEvent method when an event subscribed to by the plug-in occurs.

void IWMSEventNotificationPlugin.OnEvent(
  ref WMS_EVENT pEvent,
  IWMSContext pUserCtx,
  IWMSContext pPresentationCtx,
  IWMSCommandContext pCommandCtx
);

Arguments

Return Value

This method does not return a value. To report an error, the plug-in can throw a COMException object to the server. If the plug-in uses the IWMSEventLogIWMSEventLog Object (C#) to log error information, it is recommended that it throw NS_E_PLUGIN_ERROR_REPORTED (0xC00D157D). Typically, the server attempts to make plug-in error information available to the server object model, the Windows Event Viewer, and the troubleshooting list in the details pane of the Windows Media Services MMC. However, if the plug-in uses the IWMSEventLog object to send custom error information to the Windows Event Viewer, throwing NS_E_PLUGIN_ERROR_REPORTED stops the server from also logging to the event viewer. For more information about plug-in error information, see Identifying Plug-in Errors.

Example

public void OnEvent(
    ref WMS_EVENT pEvent,
    IWMSContext pUserCtx,
    IWMSContext pPresentationCtx,
    IWMSCommandContext pCommandCtx)

    int iSubEvent;

    try

                    // TODO: Handle connected players limit change event.
                else if( iSubEvent == (int)WMS_LIMIT_CHANGE_EVENT_TYPE.WMS_EVENT_LIMIT_CHANGE_CONNECTION_RATE )
                    // TODO: Handle connection rate limit change event.
                else
                    // TODO: Handle other limit change events.

                break;
