BaseSink

This is the abstract base class for all sinks objects. A sink specifies the format to which the image stream is converted and it specifies the way in which single frames may be accessed. Sink types derived from this are FrameNotificationSink, FrameSnapSink, FrameQueueSink, MediaStreamSink and the deprecated FrameHandlerSink.

Example

The following example illustrates how to use the BaseSink type, when handling a sink object whose actual type is unknown:

[C#]
private void CaptureImageSequence( ICImagingControl ic )
{
    // Save the currently set sink object, using a BaseSink reference.
    BaseSink oldSink = ic.Sink;
    // Create a new sink object.
    FrameSnapSink fhs = new FrameSnapSink();
    // Set the new sink.
    ic.Sink = fhs;
    // Use the new sink.
    ic.LiveStart();
    // capture 10 images
    IFrameQueueBuffer[] buffers =  fhs.SnapSequence( 10, TimeSpan.FromSeconds( 10 )  );
    // ...
    ic.LiveStop();
    // Restore the old sink.
    ic.Sink = oldSink;
}
