    Error codeDescription
    0Return successful
    1The snap process is time out. You can call function SetTimeOut to set the time out value.
    2The trial version is expired. You should visit http://www.acasystems.com to purchase a license, and then call SetRegInfo() before calling StartSnap()
    3The network or website errors.
  • Remarks

    • The function StartSnap navigates a hidden WebBrowser to open the specified URL and takes a snapshot for the web page. You must call function SetURL() to set the URL to be taken snapshot before call StartSnap.

    You can call function SaveImage() to save the image to the local file after function StartSnap succeeds.

  • Example

    • An example for VC++:

    void SnapExample()
{
  HRESULT hr;
  IThumbMaker * t_xpMaker = NULL;
  // Initializes the COM library on the current thread
  CoInitialize(NULL); 

  hr = CoCreateInstance(
    __uuidof(ThumbMaker), NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, 
    __uuidof(IThumbMaker), (void**)&t_xpMaker
    );

  if ( SUCCEEDED(hr)  )
  {
    long t_lRet = 0;
    t_xpMaker->SetURL( _T("http://www.acasystems.com") );
    t_lRet = t_xpMaker->StartSnap();
    if ( 0 == t_lRet )
    {
      // Snap successful, call SaveImage() to save the image, and then call 
      // WIN32 API ShellExecute() to open the image by default image viewer.
      t_xpMaker->SaveImage( _T("c:/acasystems.png") );
      ShellExecute( NULL, _T("open"), _T("c:/acasystems.png"), NULL, NULL, SW_SHOW);
    }
    t_xpMaker->Release();
  }
}
