Capture WebCam with WinForms2

I was asked whether it is possible to capture a webcam's output in Windows Forms 2.0 so I did a bit researching.

You simply need a Control and it's handle. I chose a PictureBox named PictureBox1 to do so. You have to define the Win32 API calls first. We will need two API functions SendMessage and capCreateCaptureWindow . Private Declare Auto Function SendMessage Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As IntPtr, ByVal wMsg As Integer, ByVal wParam As Integer, ByVal lParam As Integer) As Integer Const EM_LINEFROMCHAR As Integer = &HC9 Const EM_LINEINDEX As Integer = &HBB Private Declare Auto Function capCreateCaptureWindow Lib "avicap32.dll" (ByVal lpszWindowName As String, ByVal dwStyle As Integer, ByVal x As Integer, ByVal y As Integer, ByVal nWidth As Integer, ByVal nHeight As Inte...

This object is intended to place WPF controls into Win32 Applications but you can also use it to place a WPF control onto your Windows Desktop which is also a Win32 application. HwndSource will call the native function CreateWindowEx and create the window for you. Dim params As HwndSourceParameters = New HwndSourceParameters("CustomChrome 1", 400, 300) Dim hwnd As HwndSource = New HwndSource(params) hwnd.RootVisual = New Page1 This code will create a default window for you. The HwndSourceParameters 's constructor sets the...

WPF: Binding updates

Whenever you offer a Cancel Changes command you need to delay updates to the Source until the user Accepts Changes e.g. by clicking OK or Save. Although WPF's two way bindings update the source immediately you can delay the update by adding UpdateSourceTrigger=Explicit to your binding expression. {Binding Path=Text, UpdateSourceTrigger=Explicit} The Source won't be updated until you call BindingExpression.UpdateSource .
