CBaseAllocator.~CBaseAllocator destructor

  • Article

[The feature associated with this page, DirectShow, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation. Those features have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation instead of DirectShow, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]

Destructor method.

Syntax

~CBaseAllocator();

Remarks

Always call the CBaseAllocator::Decommit method before destroying the object. The base-class destructor cannot call Decommit, because that method calls the pure virtual method CBaseAllocator::Free. Derived classes should override this destructor and call Decommit.

Requirements
