Event DISPID

DISPID_MUAE_ONMYPROPERTYCHANGE

The DISPID for this event is defined in msgrua.h. Use this value to identify the event handler when implementing IDispatch::Invoke.

Remarks

The Microsoft Windows Messenger API does not have a method to put or set the client's property information. This event fires only if the friendly name is changed through internal APIs or user action on the user interface (UI). To get the current client user properties, establish a MessengerContact object that corresponds to the current client user and call IMessengerContact::Property on that object.

This method exists primarily for as yet undefined properties. The current properties (Phone and FriendlyName ) have get_ methods for accessing the property in the Messenger object and their own specific change events.

To be used when writing custom ::Invoke methods to handle these events.

Parameter vaArgs[x] Variant Type
vPropVal 0 VT_BSTR
ePropType 1 VT_14
hr 2 VT_14

Note  This event is available for scripting languages.

Important  DMessengerEvents::OnMyPropertyChange is no longer available in Windows Vista. See Windows Messenger for more information.
