TSPI_phoneGetStatus

The TSPI_phoneGetStatus function queries the specified open phone device for its overall status.

LONG TSPIAPI TSPI_phoneGetStatus(
  HDRVPHONE hdPhone,           
  LPPHONESTATUS lpPhoneStatus  
);

Parameters

hdPhone
The handle to the phone to be queried.
lpPhoneStatus
A pointer to a variably sized data structure of type PHONESTATUS, into which the service provider writes information about the phone's status. Prior to calling TSPI_phoneGetStatus, the application sets the dwTotalSize member of this structure to indicate the amount of memory available to TAPI for returning information.

Return Values

Returns zero if the function succeeds, or an error number if an error occurs. Possible return values are as follows:

PHONEERR_INVALPHONEHANDLE, PHONEERR_OPERATIONFAILED, PHONEERR_NOMEM, PHONEERR_OPERATIONUNAVAIL, PHONEERR_RESOURCEUNAVAIL.

Remarks

The following table indicates which members of the PHONESTATUS data structure are filled in by TAPI and which members are filled in by the service provider. The service provider must not overwrite the values filled in by TAPI.
