MCActivate

Your application can use the MCActivate function in response to activate, deactivate, suspend, and resume events.

pascal ComponentResult MCActivate (MovieController mc, 
                                     WindowPtr w, 
                                     Boolean activate);

mc

Specifies the movie controller for the operation. You obtain this
identifier from the Component Manager's OpenComponent or OpenDefaultComponent function, or from the NewMovieController function (described on page 2-28).

w

Specifies the window in which the event has occurred.

activate

Indicates the nature of the event. Set this parameter to true for activate and resume events. Set it to false for deactivate and suspend events.

DESCRIPTION

The MCActivate function returns a value indicating whether it handled the event. The function sets the returned value to 1 if it handles the event. The function sets the returned value to 0 if it does not handle the event. In this case, your application is responsible for the event.
