IMcFiles Interface

Returns the computed unique File Signature for the File pointed to in Path. Path can be either a String, or an McStream reference.

Gets or Sets the the Flags used for Screen Capture or Conversion.

Sets the ImageType for the output files of Convert or Store

Gets or Sets the the Suffix numbers used for identifying Screen Captures. After each successive screen capture, the OutputNumbers are incremented. If a file currently exists with the same name, the OutputNumbers are incremented until a unique filename is found.

Gets or Sets the Full Pathname of where converted or stored images should be placed.

Gets or Sets the the Prefix string used for identifying Screen Grabs. If no prefix is indicated, the OutputStream's FileName is used.

Gets or Sets the the McStream used for writing the output. On initial Get, the stream is created.

Gets or Sets the the Boolean value indicating whether a call to Convert searches sub-directories to find all image files that match. Defaults to False.

If a sequence (multiple frame image) is used as the Source for Convert, but a single image format (such as JPG or PNG) is used as the OutputFormat, the user has the option to save the individual frames as successive images, or to only save the first frame of the sequence.

Converts a file from one file type to another, with options. Similiar to McImageLib.McImage.Convert, but with files. Properties: String Source - The directory or filename, with or without tokens, you wish to convert.

This method allows a client to persist the settings of an individual Stream type, for an indivdual context. For example, one could use this method to save the settings of the last ScreenCapture, and these values would be available the next time ScreenCapture is run as the default values. These values would not, however, be the default settings for Convert or for File Open or Save. The pStream parameter is optional, and will override the ImageFiles own member stream. Properties: LPUNKNOWN ContextPropertyBag - The IPropertyBag object in which to save the Settings IMcStream* pStream - [optional] the settings to save, or if NULL, then save the settings of the current McStream.

This method stores an McImage to a file. If the OutputPrefix property is set, that string is used as the base for the file name. Then the method will determine the next OutputNumber to append to the OutputPrefix, and finally the extension of the format indicated by OutputStream. If the Overwrite flag is not set, the method will increment OutputNumber until a unique filename is found. If the Overwrite flag is set, the image is written despite any existing files with the same name. After writing, the OutputNumber is incremented by one. If the OutputPrefix is not set, the FileName of the OutputStream is used as the FileName. The String of the FileName used to store the image is returned in either case.
