LINELOCATIONENTRY

The LINELOCATIONENTRY structure describes a location used to provide an address translation context.

Members

dwPermanentLocationID

The permanent identifier that identifies the location.

dwLocationNameSize

dwLocationNameOffset

Contains a null-terminated ASCII string (size includes the NULL) that describes the location in a user-friendly manner.

dwCountryCode

The country code of the location.

dwPreferredCardID

The preferred calling card when dialing from this location.

dwCityCodeSize

dwCityCodeOffset

Contains a null-terminated ASCII string specifying the city/area code associated with the location (the size includes the NULL). This data, along with the country code, can be used by applications to “default” entry fields for the user when entering phone numbers, to encourage the entry of proper canonical numbers.

dwLocalAccessCodeSize

dwLocalAccessCodeOffset

The size in bytes and the offset in bytes from the beginning of the LINETRANSLATECAPS structure of a null-terminated ASCII string containing the access code to be dialed before calls to addresses in the local calling area.

dwLongDistanceAccessCodeSize

dwLongDistanceAccessCodeOffset

The size in bytes and the offset in bytes from the beginning of the LINETRANSLATECAPS structure of a null-terminated ASCII string containing the access code to be dialed before calls to addresses outside the local calling area.

dwTollPrefixListSize

dwTollPrefixListOffset

The size in bytes and the offset in bytes from the beginning of the LINETRANSLATECAPS structure of a null-terminated ASCII string containing the toll prefix list for the location. The string contains only prefixes consisting of the digits "0" through "9", separated from each other by a single “,” (comma) character.

dwCountryID

The country identifier of the country selected for the location.

dwOptions

Indicates options in effect for this location, with values taken from the LINELOCATIONOPTION_ set of constants.

dwCancelCallWaitingSize

dwCancelCallWaitingOffset

The size in bytes and the offset in bytes from the beginning of the LINETRANSLATECAPS structure of a null-terminated ASCII string containing the dial digits and modifier characters that should be prefixed to the dialable string (after the pulse/tone character) when an application sets the LINETRANSLATEOPTION_CANCELCALLWAITING bit in the dwTranslateOptions parameter of lineTranslateAddress. If no prefix is defined, this may be indicated by dwCancelCallWaitingSize being set to zero, or by it being set to 1 and dwCancelCallWaitingOffset pointing to an empty string (single NULL byte).

Remarks

No extensions.

Older applications are compiled without knowledge of these new fields, and using a SIZEOF LINELOCATIONENTRY smaller than the new size. Because this is an array in the variable portion of a LINETRANSLATECAPS structure, it is imperative that older applications receive LINELOCATIONENTRY structures in the format they previously expected, or they are not able to index through the array properly. The application passes in a dwAPIVersion parameter with the lineGetTranslateCaps function, which can be used for guidance by TAPI in handling this situation. The lineGetTranslateCaps function should use the LINELOCATIONENTRY members and size that match the indicated API version, when building the LINETRANSLATECAPS structure to be returned to the application.
