Platform SDK: MAPI

LPFNBUTTON

The LPFNBUTTON function prototype defines a callback function that MAPI calls to activate an optional button control in an address book dialog box. This button is typically a Details button.

Quick Info

Header file: MAPIDEFS.H
Defined function implemented by: Service providers
Defined function called by: MAPI

SCODE (STDMETHODCALLTYPE FAR * LPFNBUTTON) (
  ULONG ulUIParam,     
  LPVOID lpvContext,   
  ULONG cbEntryID,     
  LPENTRYID lpSelection,   
  ULONG ulFlags        
);
 

Parameters

ulUIParam
[in] Handle of the parent windows for any dialog boxes or windows this function displays.
lpvContext
[in] Pointer to an arbitrary value passed to the callback function when MAPI calls it. This value can represent an address of significance to the client application. Typically, for C++ code, lpvContext represents a pointer to the address of a C++ object.
cbEntryID
[in] Size, in bytes, of the entry identifier pointed to by the lpSelection parameter.
lpSelection
[in] Pointer to the entry identifier defining the selection within the dialog box.
ulFlags
Reserved; must be zero.

Return Values

S_OK
The call succeeded and has returned the expected value or values.

Remarks

Client applications call a callback function based on the LPFNBUTTON prototype to define a button in a details dialog box. The client passes a pointer to the callback function in calls to the IAddrBook::Details method.

Service providers call a hook function based on the LPFNBUTTON prototype to define a button in a details dialog box. The provider passes a pointer to this hook function in calls to the IMAPISupport::Details method.

In both cases, when the dialog box is displayed and the user chooses the defined button, MAPI calls LPFNBUTTON.
