# Video Recording Sample (C/C++) Before developing a camera application, request permissions by following the instructions provided in [Camera Development Preparations](camera-preparation.md). This topic provides sample code that covers the complete video recording process and the API calling sequence. For details about a single process (such as device input, session management, and video recording), see the corresponding C/C++ development guide links provided in [Camera Development Preparations](camera-preparation.md). ## Development Process After obtaining the output stream capabilities supported by the camera, create a video stream. The development process is as follows: ![Recording Development Process](figures/recording-ndk-development-process.png) ## Sample Code 1. Link the dynamic library in the CMake script. ```txt target_link_libraries(entry PUBLIC libohcamera.so libhilog_ndk.z.so) ``` 2. Import the NDK APIs on the C++ side, and perform video recording based on the surface ID passed in. ```c++ #include "hilog/log.h" #include "ohcamera/camera.h" #include "ohcamera/camera_input.h" #include "ohcamera/capture_session.h" #include "ohcamera/photo_output.h" #include "ohcamera/preview_output.h" #include "ohcamera/video_output.h" #include "ohcamera/camera_manager.h" void OnCameraInputError(const Camera_Input* cameraInput, Camera_ErrorCode errorCode) { OH_LOG_INFO(LOG_APP, "OnCameraInput errorCode = %{public}d", errorCode); } CameraInput_Callbacks* GetCameraInputListener(void) { static CameraInput_Callbacks cameraInputCallbacks = { .onError = OnCameraInputError }; return &cameraInputCallbacks; } void CaptureSessionOnFocusStateChange(Camera_CaptureSession* session, Camera_FocusState focusState) { OH_LOG_INFO(LOG_APP, "CaptureSessionOnFocusStateChange"); } void CaptureSessionOnError(Camera_CaptureSession* session, Camera_ErrorCode errorCode) { OH_LOG_INFO(LOG_APP, "CaptureSessionOnError = %{public}d", errorCode); } CaptureSession_Callbacks* GetCaptureSessionRegister(void) { static CaptureSession_Callbacks captureSessionCallbacks = { .onFocusStateChange = CaptureSessionOnFocusStateChange, .onError = CaptureSessionOnError }; return &captureSessionCallbacks; } void VideoOutputOnFrameStart(Camera_VideoOutput* videoOutput) { OH_LOG_INFO(LOG_APP, "VideoOutputOnFrameStart"); } void VideoOutputOnFrameEnd(Camera_VideoOutput* videoOutput, int32_t frameCount) { OH_LOG_INFO(LOG_APP, "VideoOutput frameCount = %{public}d", frameCount); } void VideoOutputOnError(Camera_VideoOutput* videoOutput, Camera_ErrorCode errorCode) { OH_LOG_INFO(LOG_APP, "VideoOutput errorCode = %{public}d", errorCode); } VideoOutput_Callbacks* GetVideoOutputListener(void) { static VideoOutput_Callbacks videoOutputListener = { .onFrameStart = VideoOutputOnFrameStart, .onFrameEnd = VideoOutputOnFrameEnd, .onError = VideoOutputOnError }; return &videoOutputListener; } void CameraManagerStatusCallback(Camera_Manager* cameraManager, Camera_StatusInfo* status) { OH_LOG_INFO(LOG_APP, "CameraManagerStatusCallback is called"); } CameraManager_Callbacks* GetCameraManagerListener() { static CameraManager_Callbacks cameraManagerListener = { .onCameraStatus = CameraManagerStatusCallback }; return &cameraManagerListener; } NDKCamera::NDKCamera(char *previewId, char *videoId) { Camera_Manager* cameraManager = nullptr; Camera_Device* cameras = nullptr; Camera_CaptureSession* captureSession = nullptr; Camera_OutputCapability* cameraOutputCapability = nullptr; Camera_VideoOutput* videoOutput = nullptr; const Camera_Profile* previewProfile = nullptr; const Camera_Profile* photoProfile = nullptr; const Camera_VideoProfile* videoProfile = nullptr; Camera_PreviewOutput* previewOutput = nullptr; Camera_PhotoOutput* photoOutput = nullptr; Camera_Input* cameraInput = nullptr; uint32_t size = 0; uint32_t cameraDeviceIndex = 0; char* videoSurfaceId = videoId; char* previewSurfaceId = previewId; // Create a CameraManager object.
