TSPI_lineAnswer (Windows CE 5.0)
This function answers the specified offering call.
LONG TSPIAPI TSPI_lineAnswer(DRV_REQUESTIDdwRequestID,HDRVCALLhdCall,LPCSTRlpsUserUserInfo,DWORDdwSize );
Parameters
- dwRequestID
Identifier of the asynchronous request. - hdCall
Service provider's handle to the call to be answered. The call state of hdCall can be offering or accepted. - lpsUserUserInfo
Pointer to a null-terminated string containing user-user information to be sent to the remote party at the time of answering the call. If this pointer is NULL, it indicates that no user-user information is to be sent. User-user information is only sent if supported by the underlying network (as indicated in LINEDEVCAPS). - dwSize
Size, in bytes, of the user-user information in lpsUserUserInfo. If lpsUserUserInfo is NULL, dwSize is ignored.
Return Values
Returns dwRequestID or an error number if an error occurs. The lResult actual parameter of the corresponding ASYNC_COMPLETION is zero if the function succeeds or an error number if an error occurs. The following table shows the return values for this function.
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| LINEERR_INVALCALLHANDLE | The handle to the call is invalid. |
| LINEERR_OPERATIONUNAVAIL | The operation is unavailable. |
| LINEERR_INVALCALLSTATE | The call state is invalid. |
| LINEERR_OPERATIONFAILED | The operation failed. |
| LINEERR_INUSE | The line is in use. |
| LINEERR_RESOURCEUNAVAIL | The resources are unavailable. |
| LINEERR_NOMEM | Not enough memory is available. |
| LINEERR_USERUSERINFOTOOBIG | The user user info is too big. |
Remarks
When a new call arrives, the service provider sends TAPI a LINE_NEWCALL message to exchange handles for the call. The service provider follows this with a LINE_CALLSTATE message to inform TAPI and its client applications of the call's state. A client application typically answers the call using TSPI_lineAnswer. Typically, after the call is successfully answered, the call transitions to the connected state.
In some telephony environments (like ISDN) where user alerting is separate from call offering, TAPI and its client applications may have the option to first accept a call prior to answering, or instead to reject or redirect the offering call.
If a call is offered at the time another call is already active, the new call is connected to by invoking TSPI_lineAnswer. The effect this has on the existing active call depends on the line's device capabilities. The first call may be unaffected, it may automatically be dropped, or it may automatically be placed on hold. The appropriate LINE_CALLSTATE messages are used to report state transitions to TAPI about both calls.
