Can not compile due to no such file of ForeignWindow

[javayoung]

There is a compile error in
fatal error: bb/cascades/ForeignWindow: No such file or directory app.cpp /VideoPlayerSample/src line 28 C/C++ Problem

Is there any solution?

Looks like that particular sample is just waaay out of date (5-6 months old).
ForeignWindow was deprecated in favour of ForeignWindowControl back in the 10.0.6 timeframe I believe.
Seems the author has not kept it up to date. We'll have to chase him down, or feel free to make the appropriate changes and submit a pull request.

Cheers,
Sean

Hey All,

I will try to upload a more recent version soon, hopefully within about a week. The new version should be compatible with the newest SDK; lots of code clean up, fixes and some improvements. In the mean time, if there are specific parts you just want to get it to work, feel free to reach out to us.

Apologies for the delay; a lot of things were on the plate and didn't have enough time for github projects.

Thank you for your quick response. This forum really has good technical support.

Hello,

I have been trying to get some mediaplayer examples working but without any success... it seems they have not been updated since 10.0.0. Any idea if this would eventually get an update?
Or if someone has a good direction to give me, I'd be happy to get it.
I am just trying to play a video, more specifically, to stream one.

thanks

@surashid Do you have a chance to look at this?
