IFaxPort::GetRoutingMethods

The IFaxPort::GetRoutingMethods interface method creates a FaxRoutingMethods object for the parent FaxPort object. The FaxRoutingMethods object allows enumeration of the fax routing methods associated with a fax port. Fax routing methods are defined by a fax routing extension DLL.

Visual Basic Reference

HRESULT GetRoutingMethods(
  VARIANT *retVal  // receives IDispatch pointer to 
                   // FaxRoutingMethods object
);

Parameters

retVal
[out] Pointer to a VARIANT structure that receives an IDispatch interface pointer to a FaxRoutingMethods object. The method returns a ppdispVal member with a VT_DISPATCH data type.

Return Values

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.

Remarks

The IFaxPort::GetRoutingMethods interface method retrieves an IDispatch interface pointer to a FaxRoutingMethods object. This object is derived from the FaxPort object specified by the IFaxPorts interface.

A fax client application can access the IFaxRoutingMethods interface directly by calling the IUnknown::QueryInterface method to retrieve an interface pointer.

Requirements

  Windows NT/2000: Requires Windows 2000.
  Windows 95/98: Unsupported.
  Header: Declared in faxcom.h.
  Import Library: Included as a resource in faxcom.dll.
