LocationServiceSoap.GetNewContactNotification Method

Gets the value of the NotifyOnNewContact property for the current locatable user.

Public Function GetNewContactNotification ()

      _ As System.Boolean
[C#]
public System.Boolean GetNewContactNotification ();

Remarks

This method accepts the following SOAP headers:

UserInfoLocationHeader—Used to establish the current user's (the user that is invoking the location service) specific information such as culture information and so on. When this SOAP header is not provided, the current user's default culture is applied. For more information, see UserInfoLocationHeader Class.

ClientIdHeader—Not used with MapPoint Location Server 1.0.

For information about the terms, notification and notify on contact, see the Glossary.

Because this is a Web service, all exceptions appear as SOAP exceptions. For more information, see the SoapException.Detail property.

Example

 
[Visual Basic]
    'Create a LocationServiceSoap proxy instance.
    Dim MyLocationService As New LocationServiceSoap
    'Create and add the credentials required to access the Web service.
    Dim MyCredentials As New NetworkCredential("user", "password", "DOMAIN")
    MyLocationService.Credentials = MyCredentials

    Try
        'Get the notify on new contact for the current user
        Dim NotifyOnNewContact As Boolean = MyLocationService.GetNewContactNotification()

    Catch MyException As SoapException

        'Your exception processing goes here.
        If ((Not MyException.Detail Is Nothing) And (Not MyException.Detail("Type") Is Nothing)) Then
            MessageBox.Show(MyException.Detail("Type").InnerText)
        End If

    Finally
        'Your cleanup goes here
        MyLocationService = Nothing
    End Try

 
[C#]
  //Create a LocationServiceSoap proxy instance.
  LocationServiceSoap MyLocationService = new LocationServiceSoap();
  //Create and add the credentials required to access the Web service.
  NetworkCredential MyCredentials = new NetworkCredential("user", "password", "DOMAIN");
  MyLocationService.Credentials = MyCredentials;

  try
  {
   //Get the Contact Notification flag for the current user
   //True means that the user gets a notification if he/she is added as a contact to somebody else's list
   //False means that the user does NOT get a notification if he/she is added as a contact to somebody else's list
   bool notifyOnAddtoContact = MyLocationService.GetNewContactNotification();
  }
  catch(SoapException MyException)
  {
   //Your exception processing goes here.
   if (MyException.Detail != null && MyException.Detail["Type"] != null)
    MessageBox.Show(MyException.Detail["Type"].InnerText);
  }
  finally
  {
   //Your cleanup goes here
   MyLocationService = null;
  }
