Platform Object

The IUccPlatform interface is the entry point that a Unified Communications Client API application uses to access the API. A Unified Communications Client API application obtains this interface by co-creating a singleton UccPlatform object. The resultant object serves as a factory object for creating or procuring the following API objects:
- A SIP endpoint, which represents a user using a client instance on a particular device. An endpoint object also serves as the factory object for sessions, publication, and subscription and as the manager object for media connectivity. A SIP endpoint must be registered with the underlying Office Communications Server. For more information, see Endpoint Object.
- A proxy endpoint, which represents a user's telephone under the control of a SIP endpoint. A proxy endpoint is used when a telephony device is involved in the real-time communications.
- A device manager, which manages available local media devices used for real-time communications. For more information, see Device Management Objects.
The following diagram illustrates the platform object in Unified Communications Client API.
