DMessengerEvents::OnContactListAdd Event

Deprecated. Indicates the result of an attempt to add to the Messenger object's Contact List.

Syntax

void OnContactListAdd(

);

Parameters

  • hr
    [in] 

    Success or error code as a LONG. For a table of the MSGR_E_* constants, see MSGRConstants.

Event DISPID

DISPID_MUAE_ONLISTADD

The DISPID for this event is defined in msgrua.h. Use this value to identify the event handler when implementing IDispatch::Invoke.

Remarks

This event comes in response to a specific user action through the client user interface (UI). There is no API for adding a contact to the Contact List.

If you attempt to add a user who is already in a list, you will receive MSGR_E_ALREADY_IN_LIST in response. There is no initial check of client-side lists for the Microsoft .NET Messenger Service before submission as a protocol, although it is possible that other services might implement a client-side check that would issue an event locally in this situation and submit no protocol message for some of the error cases.

To be used when writing custom ::Invoke methods to handle these events.

Parameter vaArgs[x] Variant Type
pMContact 0 VT_DISPATCH
pMGroup 1 VT_DISPATCH
hr 2 VT_I4

The same DISPID is defined on DMessengerPrivateEvents, and so the event also occurs on the MessengerPriv object.

Note  This event is available for scripting languages.

Important  DMessengerEvents::OnContactListAdd is no longer available in Windows Vista. See Windows Messenger for more information.
