The IMAPIMessageSite::GetSiteStatus method returns information from a message site object about the message site s capabilities for the current message.

Quick Info

See IMAPIMessageSite : IUnknown1XJJ0FL.

 

HRESULT GetSiteStatus(

    ULONG FAR * lpulStatus

 

   )

 

 

Parameters

lpulStatus

[out] Pointer to a bitmask of flags giving information on message status. The following flags can be set:

VCSTATUS_COPY

The message can be copied.

VCSTATUS_DELETE

The message can be deleted.

VCSTATUS_DELETE_IS_MOVE

The message is actually moved to a Deleted Items folder when deleted, rather than being immediately removed from its message store.

VCSTATUS_MOVE

The message can be moved.

VCSTATUS_NEW_MESSAGE

A new message can be created.

VCSTATUS_SAVE

The message can be saved.

VCSTATUS_SUBMIT

The message can be submitted.

 

Return Values

S_OK

Remarks

Form objects call the IMAPIMessageSite::GetSiteStatus method to obtain the message site object s capabilities for the current message. The flags returned in the lpulStatus parameter provide information on the message site; typically, a form enables or disables menu commands based on information the flags provide on the capabilities of the message site implementation. If a new message is loaded into a form by the IPersistMessage::SaveCompletedFB3MHB method or the IPersistMessage::Load10QIUGK method, the status flags must be checked. Some message site objects, particularly read-only ones, do not permit messages to be saved or deleted.

Notes to Implementers

IMAPIMessageSite::GetSiteStatus may require your client application to do some calculation to determine what operations can and can t be performed on the current message. Typically, that involves looking at the status row for the current message s message store provider, or querying the store provider directly to determine which actions the client application can perform using the message store. For example, determining whether to return the MAPI_DELETE_IS_MOVE flag could be done by checking the message store object s PR_IPM_WASTEBASKET_ENTRYID3PPQ.MN property to see whether there is a Deleted Items folder in the message store.
