Functions
A MultiCam function is a software item complying to the standard C language syntax.
The set of all MultiCam functions constitutes the MultiCam API (Application Programming Interface). The API in C language provides the native way for the application to interact with the MultiCam system.
The API is designed for stability. The MultiCam principles and structure are such that the MultiCam functions do not change in case of new functional features, new frame grabber or new camera.
The functions are organized in 4 categories:
- Driver connection functions: enable or disable the driver communication.
- Instance management functions: create or remove object instances.
- Parameters management functions: set and get MultiCam parameters value.
- Signaling functions: manage the event flow associated to the acquisition.
