lineGetMessage  A50QF3

The lineGetMessage function returns the next TAPI message that is queued for delivery to an application that is using the Event Handle notification mechanism (see lineInitializeEx18GE4YT for further details).

LONG lineGetMessage(

    HLINEAPP hLineApp,

 

    LPLINEMESSAGE lpMessage,

 

    DWORD dwTimeout

 

   );

 

 

Parameters

hLineApp

The handle returned by lineInitializeEx. The application must have set the LINEINITIALIZEEXOPTION_USEEVENT option in the dwOptions member of the LINEINITIALIZEEXPARAMS70L_W7 structure.

lpMessage

A pointer to a LINEMESSAGEHKJWP8 structure. Upon successful return from this function, the structure will contain the next message which had been queued for delivery to the application.

dwTimeout

The time-out interval, in milliseconds. The function returns if the interval elapses, even if no message can be returned. If dwTimeout is zero, the function checks for a queued message and returns immediately. If dwTimeout is INFINITE, the function's time-out interval never elapses.

 

Return Values

Returns zero if the request is successful or a negative error number if an error has occurred. Possible return values are:

LINEERR_INVALAPPHANDLE, LINEERR_OPERATIONFAILED, LINEERR_INVALPOINTER, LINEERR_NOMEM.

Remarks

If the lineGetMessage function has been called with a non-zero timeout and the application calls lineShutdown on another thread, this function will return immediately with LINEERR_INVALAPPHANDLE.

If the timeout expires (or was zero) and no message could be fetched from the queue, the function returns with the error LINEERR_OPERATIONFAILED.
