Detailed Description

Extends BaseCameraManager2 by adding editable parameters.

• all parameters have type string
• parameter ids always start with 0

Member Enumeration Documentation

CameraCapability3

enum nxcip::BaseCameraManager3::CameraCapability3

Enumerator
cameraParamsPersistentCapability	Camera parameters can be read/set even if camera is not accessible at the moment.

Member Function Documentation

getParametersDescriptionXML()

virtual const char* nxcip::BaseCameraManager3::getParametersDescriptionXML ( ) const

pure virtual

Returns XML describing camera parameters.

XML MUST conform to camera_parameters.xsd which can be found in SDK. Sample XML also can be found there This XML describes parameters (types, possible values, etc..) accessible with getParamValue and setParamValue

getParamValue()

virtual int nxcip::BaseCameraManager3::getParamValue ( const char *  paramName, char *  valueBuf, int *  valueBufSize  ) const

pure virtual

Reads value of parameter paramName.

Parameters

paramName	\0-terminated utf-8 string specifing unique id of the parameter.
valueBufSize	IN: Length of valueBuf, OUT: length of string value not including \0-character

Returns

• NX_NO_ERROR if value loaded to value buf. Value is always \0-terminated utf8 string
• NX_UNKNOWN_PARAMETER if paramName specifies unknown parameter
• NX_MORE_DATA if valueBuf has not enough space. In this case *valueBufSize is set to required buf size

setParamValue()

virtual int nxcip::BaseCameraManager3::setParamValue ( const char *  paramName, const char *  value  )

pure virtual

Set value of parameter paramName to value.

Parameters

paramName	\0-terminated utf-8 string specifing unique id of the parameter.
value	\0-terminated utf8 string

Returns

• NX_NO_ERROR if value successfully applied
• NX_UNKNOWN_PARAMETER if paramName specifies unknown parameter
• NX_PARAM_READ_ONLY if parameter is read only (check pfReadOnly flag)
• NX_INVALID_PARAM_VALUE if parameter value does not pass validity check
