Receives notification of which allocator will be used by the connected output pin.

HRESULT NotifyAllocator(
IMemAllocator *
pAllocator, 
BOOL
bReadOnly
);

Parameters

pAllocator
Pointer to the IMemAllocatorobject to use. This might or might not be the same CTransInPlaceInputPinobject that the input pin provided in the CTransInPlaceInputPin::GetAllocatormember function (the output pin could provide its own allocator).
bReadOnly
Flag to indicate if the samples from this allocator are read-only.

Return Values

Returns NOERROR if successful. Returns E_POINTER if the pointer is invalid. Otherwise, returns an error due to calling CTransInPlaceOutputPin::ReceiveAllocator.

Remarks

This member function overrides the CBaseInputPin::NotifyAllocatormember function and implements the IMemInputPin::NotifyAllocatormethod. This member function remembers the allocator and passes it to the output pin because they both must share the same allocator.
