Platform SDK: Fax Services |
The IFaxPort::put_Rings method changes the Rings property for a FaxPort object. The Rings property represents the number of rings an incoming fax call should wait before the fax port answers the call.
Before calling this method a fax client application can call the IFaxPort::get_CanModify method to ensure that the client has permission to modify configuration information for the specified fax port.
HRESULT put_Rings( LONG newVal // new value for ring count before answer );
Returns an HRESULT value indicating success or failure. If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns a COM-defined error code.
You should not check directly for success or failure. Use the COM SUCCEEDED and FAILED macros instead.
The fax server ignores the Rings property unless the fax port is enabled to receive faxes.
