RAS Common Dialog Boxes

Windows NT version 4.0 provides a set of functions that display the RAS dialog boxes provided by the system. These functions make it easy for applications to display a familiar user interface so users can perform RAS tasks, such as establishing and monitoring connections, or working with phone-book entries. Windows 95 does not currently support these functions.

The RasPhonebookDlg function displays the main Dial-Up Networking dialog box. From this dialog box, the user can dial, edit, or delete a selected phone-book entry, create a new phone-book entry, or specify user preferences. The RasPhonebookDlg function uses the RASPBDLG structure to specify additional input and output parameters. For example, you can set members of the structure to control the position of the dialog box on the screen. You can use the RASPBDLG structure to specify a RasPBDlgFunc callback function that receives notifications of user activity while the dialog box is open. For example, RAS calls your RasPBDlgFunc function if the user dials, edits, creates, or deletes a phone-book entry.

You can use the RasDialDlg function to start a RAS connection operation without displaying the main Dial-Up Networking dialog box. With RasDialDlg, you specify a phone number or phone-book entry to call. The function displays a stream of dialog boxes that indicate the state of the connection operation. The RasDialDlg function uses a RASDIALDLG structure to specify additional input and output parameters, such as position of the dialog box and the phone-book subentry to call.

To display the Dial-Up Networking Monitor property sheet, call the RasMonitorDlg function. This dialog box enables the user to monitor the status of existing connections. The RasMonitorDlg function uses a RASMONITORDLG structure to specify additional input and output parameters, such as the position of the dialog box and the property sheet page to display on top.

You can call the RasEntryDlg function to display a property sheet for creating, editing, or copying a phone-book entry. The RasEntryDlg function uses a RASENTRYDLG structure to specify additional input and output parameters, such as the position of the dialog box and the type of phone book operation.

    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.
