lineHold
The lineHold function places the specified call on hold.
LONG lineHold(
Parameters
hCall
A handle to the call to be placed on hold. The application must be an owner of
the call. The call state of hCall must be connected.
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_INVALCALLHANDLE, LINEERR_OPERATIONUNAVAIL, LINEERR_INVALCALLSTATE,
LINEERR_OPERATIONFAILED, LINEERR_NOMEM, LINEERR_RESOURCEUNAVAIL, LINEERR_NOTOWNER,
LINEERR_UNINITIALIZED.
Remarks
The call on hold is temporarily disconnected allowing the application to use
the line device for making or answering other calls. The lineHold function performs a so-called "hard hold" of the specified call (as opposed
to a "consultation call"). A call on hard hold typically cannot be transferred
or included in a conference call, but a consultation call can. Consultation
calls are initiated using lineSetupTransfer, lineSetupConference, or linePrepareAddToConference.
After a call has been successfully placed on hold, the call state typically
transitions to onHold. A held call is retrieved by lineUnhold. While a call is on hold, the application may receive LINE_CALLSTATE messages about state changes of the held call. For example, if the held party
hangs up, the call state may transition to disconnected.
In a bridged situation, a lineHold operation may possibly not actually place the call on hold, because the
status of other stations on the call may govern (for example, attempting to "hold" a
call when other stations are participating will not be possible); instead, the
call may simply be changed to the LINECONNECTEDMODE_INACTIVE mode if it
remains connected at other stations.

Nostalgia .Net |
|
.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
