ChannelState Property
Returns the current channel state of the control.
Syntax
value=object.ChannelState
Parameters
value Required. A variable of enumChannelState type. object Required. An object expression that evaluates to a Channel object. Remarks
Access is read-only.
At creation, the state of a channel is chsClosed. When calling its JoinChannel or CreateChannel method, the state becomes asynchronously chsOpening and chsOpen. It becomes chsClosed again when the user leaves the channel or is kicked from the channel, or when a server disconnection occurs.
If the Channel object is removed from the collection, attempts to access any of its properties or methods will cause an occurrence of the Channels collection error 3172, "The channel is no more part of the collection."
The asynchronous channel state changes are exposed through the OnChannelState event.
