linePrepareAddToConference  9CL6KW 

The linePrepareAddToConference function prepares an existing conference call for the addition of another party.

LONG linePrepareAddToConference(

    HCALL hConfCall,

 

    LPHCALL lphConsultCall,

 

    LPLINECALLPARAMS const lpCallParams

 

   );

 

 

Parameters

hConfCall

A handle to a conference call. The application must be an owner of this call. The call state of hConfCall must be connected.

lphConsultCall

A pointer to an HCALL handle. This location is then loaded with a handle identifying the consultation call to be added. Initially, the application will be the sole owner of this call.

lpCallParams

A pointer to call parameters to be used when establishing the consultation call. This parameter may be set to NULL if no special call setup parameters are desired.

 

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_REPLY2_C_9WS 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_BEARERMODEUNAVAIL, LINEERR_INVALPOINTER, LINEERR_CALLUNAVAIL, LINEERR_INVALRATE, LINEERR_CONFERENCEFULL, LINEERR_NOMEM, LINEERR_INUSE, LINEERR_NOTOWNER, LINEERR_INVALADDRESSMODE, LINEERR_OPERATIONUNAVAIL, LINEERR_INVALBEARERMODE, LINEERR_OPERATIONFAILED, LINEERR_INVALCALLPARAMS, LINEERR_RATEUNAVAIL, LINEERR_INVALCALLSTATE, LINEERR_RESOURCEUNAVAIL, LINEERR_INVALCONFCALLHANDLE, LINEERR_STRUCTURETOOSMALL, LINEERR_INVALLINESTATE, LINEERR_USERUSERINFOTOOBIG, LINEERR_INVALMEDIAMODE, LINEERR_UNINITIALIZED.

Remarks

If LINEERR_INVALLINESTATE is returned, the line is currently not in a state in which this operation can be performed. A list of currently valid operations can be found in the dwLineFeatures field (of the type LINEFEATURE_) in the LINEDEVSTATUS54R1YX5 structure. (Calling lineGetLineDevStatus38.3VV updates the information in LINEDEVSTATUS.)

A conference call handle can be obtained with lineSetupConference or with lineCompleteTransfer that is resolved as a three-way conference call. The function linePrepareAddToConference typically places the existing conference call in the onHoldPendingConference state and creates a consultation call that can be added later to the existing conference call with lineAddToConference.

The consultation call can be canceled using lineDrop. It may also be possible for an application to swap between the consultation call and the held conference call with lineSwapHold.
