IATVEFMulticastConfig

A content server application uses the IATVEFMulticastConfig interface to initialize a CSendATVEFMulticast object.

When to Implement

Implemented by CSendATVEFMulticast in ATVEFSnd.dll.

When to Use

This interface provides a means of connecting a content server application directly to the NIC of the local host.

Methods in Vtable Order

IUnknown method Description
QueryInterface Returns pointers to supported interfaces.
AddRef Increments the reference count.
Release Decrements the reference count.

IATVEFMulticastConfig method Description
Initialize Initializes the multicast object to send data directly to the NIC by native multicast.

Remarks

This interface is implemented only by a CSendATVEFMulticast object. If a content server application is sending data to a VBI Inserter, it co-creates a CSendATVEFInserter object and then calls IATVEFInserterConfig::Initialize or .IATVEFInserterConfig::InitializeEx.
