MidiSendMessageResult

When an application sends a message, it should check the result of sending to ensure that the message was transmitted. Each of the message sending functions returns a MidiSendMessageResult flags enum. Values in this enum are OR’d together to indicate success or failure, and in the case of failure, the reason.

The MidiEndpointConnection type includes static helper functions to process the MidiSendMessageResult and determine success or failure. The application may then optionally look at the remaining data to see which failure reason(s) apply.

auto sendResult = myConnection.SendMessageWords(MidiClock::TimestampConstantSendImmediately(), 0x28675309);

if (MidiEndpointConnection::SendMessageSucceeded(sendResult))
{
    // do something in the case of success
}
else
{
    // one or more failure reasons in the result. Use bitwise AND `&` operator to decipher.
}

Properties

Succeeded 0x80000000 Indicates success.
Failed 0x10000000 Indicates failure. The actual failure reason will be combined with the result.
BufferFull 0x00010000 The message could not be sent because the outgoing buffer to the service was full
EndpointConnectionClosedOrInvalid 0x00040000 The endpoint connection was closed or invalidated before the message could be sent.
InvalidMessageTypeForWordCount 0x00100000 The number of words sent does not match the message type of the first word.
InvalidMessageOther 0x00200000 The message sent was invalid for another reason.
DataIndexOutOfRange 0x00400000 Reading a full message would result in overrunning the provided array, collection, or buffer.
TimestampOutOfRange 0x00800000 The provided timestamp is too far in the future to be scheduled.
MessageListPartiallyProcessed 0x00F00000 The message list was only partially processed. Not all messages were sent.
