This is very similar to the 'spit' vs 'imco' question.
I have been given a compression/decompression library that has been
built in
the DirectShow model. I've worked the compressor part of the library
into a
QuickTime exporter and now I'm going to work the decompressor part of
the
library into an importer.
But I am trying to understand when to use a decompressor 'imdc'
versus putting
the work in the importer only.
When specifically are 'imdc' components called:
... when requested by another component (my component) only?
... or other times?
In other words, what are the benefits/drawbacks of
1) writing just the importer (no decompressor)
2) writing both importer and decompressor
(I may not have access to all the data I need for the
decompressor interface, however).
Thanks,
Jeff
