lineCompleteCall

The lineCompleteCall function specifies how a call that could not be connected normally should be completed instead. The network or switch may not be able to complete a call because network resources are busy or the remote station is busy or doesn't answer. The application can request that the call be completed in one of a number of ways.

LONG lineCompleteCall(

HCALL hCall,
LPDWORD lpdwCompletionID,
DWORD dwCompletionMode,
DWORD dwMessageID
);

Parameters

hCall

A handle to the call whose completion is requested. The application must be an owner of the call. The call state of hCall must be busy, ringback.

lpdwCompletionID

A pointer to a DWORD-sized memory location. The completion ID is used to identify individual completion requests in progress. A completion ID becomes invalid and may be reused after the request completes or after an outstanding request is canceled.

dwCompletionMode

The way in which the call is to be completed. Note that dwCompletionMode is allowed to have only a single flag set. This parameter uses the following LINECALLCOMPLMODE_ constants:

LINECALLCOMPLMODE_CAMPON

Queues the call until the call can be completed. The call remains in the busy state while queued.

LINECALLCOMPLMODE_CALLBACK

Requests the called station to return the call when it returns to idle.

LINECALLCOMPLMODE_INTRUDE

Adds the application to the existing physical call at the called station (barge in).

LINECALLCOMPLMODE_MESSAGE

Leave a short predefined message for the called station ("Leave Word Calling"). The message to be sent is specified by dwMessageID.

dwMessageID

The message that is to be sent when completing the call using LINECALLCOMPLMODE_MESSAGE. This ID selects the message from a small number of predefined messages.

Return Values

Returns a positive request ID if the function will be completed asynchronously, or a negative error number if an error has occurred. The dwParam2 parameter of the corresponding LINE_REPLY message is zero if the function is successful or it is a negative error number if an error has occurred. Possible return values are:

LINEERR_COMPLETIONOVERRUN, LINEERR_NOMEM, LINEERR_INVALCALLCOMPLMODE, LINEERR_NOTOWNER, LINEERR_INVALCALLSTATE, LINEERR_OPERATIONUNAVAIL, LINEERR_INVALCALLHANDLE, LINEERR_OPERATIONFAILED, LINEERR_INVALMESSAGEID, LINEERR_RESOURCEUNAVAIL, LINEERR_INVALPOINTER, LINEERR_UNINITIALIZED.

Remarks

This function is considered complete when the request has been accepted by the network or switch; not when the request is fully completed in the way specified. After this function completes, the call typically transitions to idle. When the called station or network enters a state where the call can be completed as requested, the application will be notified by a LINE_CALLSTATE message with the call state equal to offering. The call's LINECALLINFO record lists the reason for the call as CALLCOMPLETION and provide the completion ID as well. It is possible to have multiple call completion requests outstanding at any given time; the maximum number is device dependent. The completion ID is also used to refer to each individual request so requests can be canceled by calling lineUncompleteCall.
