IContact interface (icontact.h)
Do not use. Defines methods for reading and writing properties for a single contact.
Inheritance
The IContact interface inherits from the IUnknown interface. IContact also has these types of members:
Methods
The IContact interface has these methods.
| IContact::CommitChanges Saves changes made to this contact to the contact file. |
| IContact::GetContactID Retrieves the local computer unique contact ID. |
| IContact::GetPath Retrieves the file system path used to load this contact. |
Remarks
Classes that implement this interface often also implement these interfaces:
- IPersistFile: Enables the contact to be loaded from a file. Use this interface when loading a contact to get full support in CommitChanges to change conflict detection.
- IPersistStream: Provides methods for saving and loading objects that use a simple serial stream for their storage needs.
- IPersistStreamInit: Enables the contact to be saved or loaded from a stream. Use IPersistStreamInit::InitNew to create a new IContact. Note: loading a contact with IPersistStream does not give you the locking and conflict detection that IPersistFile::Load and CommitChanges do.
- IContactProperties: Enables manipulation of contact properties.
