问题
I can see a similar question that has been answered here (How would i play a specific song in iTunes through java?) but it doesn't really answer my question (I don't think, anyway).
I have a couple of buttons on a winform (play, pause, skip forward, skip back) and want to be able to connect these through iTunes, so as to create a 'mini media player'.
However, I am having issues (obviously, or I wouldn't be writing this :P) with all this 'COM' malarkey. I have tried including (nearly) all the possible references from 'Apple', 'iTunes' and still can't seem to be able to find a way of pressing the button 'play' and actually playing a song in iTunes.
I have a button on click event (i've called the button btnPlay). But does anyone know the 'correct' or 'efficient' way of connecting iTunes to winforms?
I've heard about something called sendKeys, but I'm a total noob and have really no idea of how to create this sort of thing.
PS. I've also tried to find a refence for using iTunesLib; (from http://blogs.msdn.com/b/noahc/archive/2006/07/06/automating-itunes-with-c-in-net.aspx) but this is a dated post, and i'm not certain this namespace is available anymore (well, I can't find it anywhere in the Com references anyway.
As always, any help much appreciated.
回答1:
Add a reference to iTunes 1.xx Type Library (it will be in the COM list of references).
Then you can use iTunes app as so in your click event
iTunesApp app = new iTunesAppClass();
app.Play();
you will need to perform the following step to embed the the COM iTunes app.
Go to the Solution Explorer.
Right click on References –> iTunesLib and hit Properties.
Set “Embed Interop Types” to False.
