Creating a Stub Adaptor

3-5

const char* formatName,

imaqkit::IPropFactory* devicePropFact,

imaqkit::IVideoSourceInfo* sourceContainer,

imaqkit::ITriggerInfo* hwTriggerInfo){

// Create a video source

sourceContainer->addAdaptorSource("MyDeviceSource", 1);

}

imaqkit::IAdaptor* createInstance(imaqkit::IEngine* engine, const

imaqkit::IDeviceInfo* deviceInfo, const

char* formatName){

imaqkit::IAdaptor* adaptor = NULL;

return adaptor;

}

void uninitializeAdaptor(){

}

Build the adaptor DLL. Select the Build Solution option on the Build menu.

Start the MATLAB software.

Tell the toolbox where to find this new adaptor using the imaqregister function.

See “Registering an Adaptor with the Toolbox” on page 1-10 for more information.

You only need to perform this step once.

Call the imaqhwinfo function. Note that the stub adaptor, named mydeviceimaq,

is included in the list of available adaptors returned.

imaqhwinfo

ans =

InstalledAdaptors: {'demo' 'mydeviceimaq' 'winvideo'}

MATLABVersion: '7.12 (R2011a)'

ToolboxName: 'Image Acquisition Toolbox'

ToolboxVersion: '4.1 (R2011a)'

To get more information about the stub adaptor, call imaqhwinfo again, this time

specifying the name of the adaptor.
