IDirectMusicPerformance::AssignPChannel

The IDirectMusicPerformance::AssignPChannel method assigns a single performance channel (PChannel) to the performance and maps it to a port, group, and MIDI channel.

HRESULT AssignPChannel(
  DWORD dwPChannel, 
  IDirectMusicPort* pPort,
  DWORD dwGroup, 
  DWORD dwMChannel
);

Parameters

dwPChannel
PChannel to assign.
pPort
Port to which the PChannel is assigned.
dwGroup
Channel group on the port.
dwMChannel
Channel in the group. Must be in the range 0-15.

Return Values

If the method succeeds, the return value is S_OK or S_FALSE (see Remarks).

If it fails, the method may return one of the following error values:

E_INVALIDARG
E_POINTER

Remarks

The method returns S_FALSE if dwGroup is out of the range of the port. The channel has been assigned, but the port cannot play this group.

The method returns E_INVALIDARG if dwMChannel is out of range or the port hasn't been added to the performance through a call to the IDirectMusicPerformance::AddPort method.
