LInet::SendShowWinCmd

#include " ltwrappr.h "

L_INT LInet::SendShowWinCmd (plRemoteComp, uCommandID, uWindowID, nCmdShow)

LInet * plRemoteComp;

/* instance of a remote computer */

L_UINT uCommandID;

/* command id */

LONG_PTR uWindowID;

/* window id */

L_INT nCmdShow;

/* show flag */

Sends a show window command to a remote computer. This function is only available in the Internet toolkit.

Parameter

Description

plRemoteComp

Instance of the remote computer to which the command will be sent.

uCommandID

Command ID. Each command sent by a member of a connection should have a unique ID. Since a member of a connection may send several commands, this ID allows that member to identify when a specific command request has been completed.

uWindowID

The id of the window to show.

nCmdShow

Specifies how the window is to be shown. The possible values are the same as the nCmdShow parameter of the ShowWindow command from the Windows SDK.

Returns

SUCCESS

This function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

The remote computer should respond by calling LInet::SendShowWinRsp in its LInet::CommandCallBack function.

The LInet::CommandCallBackfunction will receive the uWindowID and the nCmdShow information in the pParams parameter. The uWindowID information will be in pParams[0] and the nCmdShow information will be in pParams[1].

To process responses to commands, a class must be derived from LInet and the LInet::ResponseCallBackmember function must be overridden.

Required DLLs and Libraries

LTNET

For a listing of the exact DLLs and Libraries needed, based on the toolkit version, refer to Files To Be Included With Your Application.
