First, all exceptions are gone now. I'm not really sure they were working at all in previous versions, nothing ever threw exception. Delete all exception related functions:
libvlc_exception_raised
libvlc_exception_get_message
libvlc_exception_clear
libvlc_exception_init
libvlc_exception_t
Then delete all exception arguments, most of the functions remained the same, but without that argument.
libvlc_new ( list.count(), args, CVlcInstance::getException() );
libvlc_media_player_new_from_media ( m_media, CVlcInstance::getException() );
libvlc_media_player_event_manager ( m_player, CVlcInstance::getException() );
libvlc_media_player_play ( m_player, CVlcInstance::getException() );
libvlc_media_player_pause ( m_player, CVlcInstance::getException() );
libvlc_media_player_stop ( m_player, CVlcInstance::getException() );
libvlc_media_player_get_length ( m_player, CVlcInstance::getException() );
libvlc_media_player_get_media ( m_player, CVlcInstance::getException() );
libvlc_media_player_get_position ( m_player, CVlcInstance::getException() );
libvlc_media_player_get_media ( m_player, CVlcInstance::getException() );
libvlc_media_player_set_position ( m_player, pos, CVlcInstance::getException() );
The functions that were there for backward compatibility are gone:
libvlc_media_player_set_drawable ( m_player, this->winId(), CVlcInstance::getException() );
libvlc_media_player_set_xwindow ( m_player, this->winId() );
And some functions changed signature:
m_media = libvlc_media_new ( m_inst, tochar(m_content), CVlcInstance::getException() );
m_media = libvlc_media_new_path ( m_inst, tochar(m_content) );
libvlc_audio_toggle_mute ( (libvlc_instance_t*)m_inst, CVlcInstance::getException() );
libvlc_audio_toggle_mute ( (libvlc_media_player_t*)m_player );
Those were the changes needed for my application. After I made them the program worked fine and all vlc functions ran without errors.
