DPLPROPERTY_MessagesSupported

DPLPROPERTY_MessagesSupported is a Boolean value indicating whether the lobby supports standard messages. An application can request this property from the lobby to determine if it supports standard messages. If the lobby does not respond to this message, or if it responds with FALSE, the application should assume that it does not support standard lobby messages and should not send any further messages. If the lobby returns TRUE, the application should freely send standard messages to the lobby and query for further properties of the lobby.

For this property, the dwPropertyData member of the DPLMSG_GETPROPERTYRESPONSE structure will contain the following:

BOOL  fMessagesSupported;
