TAPI 3.0 
OUTGOING Sample Application 
 
 
Overview: 
 
Outgoing is a sample TAPI 3.0 application that makes outgoing phone 
calls. 
 
This sample shows the most basic TAPI 3.0 functionality - finding an 
appropriate address object and creating a call on it. 
 
How to use: 
 
To run the OUTGOING sample application, simply build and run t3out.exe. 
 
 
A small dialog box will appear.  The user can type in a destination address 
and choose the address type of the destination address.  TAPI 3.0 currently 
supports the following address types: 
 
    Conference Name 
    Email Name 
    Machine Name 
    Phone Number 
    IP Address 
 
Microsoft's H.323 Service Provider supports the Email Name, Machine Name, 
and IP Address address types.  Microsoft's IP Conferencing Service 
Provider supports the Conference Name address type. 
 
When the user types in a destination address, chooses an address type, 
and presses the "Dial" button, the application will find a TAPI address 
that support the address type selected, as well as the audioin and audio 
out media types.  Then it will make a call on that address. 
 
If the address also support video, and the machine has video capabilities, 
the application will also set up a video stream. 
 
 
 
What functionality does this sample show: 
 
The outgoing sample application shows how to make a phone call with 
TAPI 3.0. 
 
 
What this sample does not show: 
 
This sample is extremely simple.  It does not allow the user to select 
the address or terminals that the user is interested in.  It does not 
see call state messages, and does not listen for incoming calls. 
  
 
Hints: 
 
This sample should be able to run as long as you have TAPI devices 
installed.  Many computers have a modem.  If the modem is installed 
correctly, it will show up as a TAPI device.
