如何通过程序获得Windows Media Player的版本号

 

在平时的编程中，因为需要使用到Windows Media SDK或者播放ASF/WMV等文件时，需要判别Windows Media Player的版本号。以下就通过编程来实现此功能。          

Windows Media Player的版本的判定通过 wmvcore.dll来做。

                BOOL IsMediaPlay9Installed()

                {

                         BOOL bflag = FALSE;

       DWORD dwSize = 0;

 

       // This function determines whether the OS can obtain version information about a

// specified file. If version information is available, GetFileVersionInfoSize

// returns the size, in bytes.

       dwSize = GetFileVersionInfoSize(TEXT("wmvcore.dll"),0);

       if (dwSize>0)

       {

              BYTE *pBuf = NULL;

              pBuf = new BYTE[dwSize];

              if (!pBuf)               return FALSE;

              if (GetFileVersionInfo(TEXT("wmvcore.dll"), 0, dwSize, pBuf))

              {

                     UINT dwBytes = 0;

                     VS_FIXEDFILEINFO *pvsInfo = NULL;

                     if (VerQueryValue(pBuf, TEXT("//"), (void**)&pvsInfo, &dwBytes))

                     {

                            INT32 nMajor = 0;

                            nMajor = HIWORD(pvsInfo->dwProductVersionMS);

                            INT32 nSub = 0;

                            nSub = LOWORD(pvsInfo->dwProductVersionMS);

                            if (nMajor >= 9 && nSub >= 0)

                                   bflag = TRUE;

                            else

                                   bflag = FALSE;

                     }

              }

              if (pBuf != NULL)

              {

                     delete [] pBuf;

                     pBuf = NULL;

              }

       }

       return bflag;

}
