Any Appointment becomes a Meeting Request when you retrieve its recipients list, specify one or more recipients, and then send the appointment information to the recipients.

To create a meeting request

Create an instance of the Outlook Mobile application object and then use it to establish a POOM session. For more information, see Establishing a POOM Session.
Create a PIM item. For more information, see Creating a PIM Item.

Retrieve and populate the Appointment's Recipient List, as follows:

pAppt->get_Recipients(&pRecipients);

pRecipients->Add(TEXT("Kathryn Wilson"), &pRecipient);
pRecipients->Add(TEXT("Blanca"), &pRecipient);
pRecipients->Add(TEXT("Robert"), &pRecipient);

Set each Recipient object's Address property by resolving each recipient against the Contacts List. Iterate backward through the Recipients List so that the remaining unresolved Recipients are not reordered when a Recipient is removed from the list:

IPOlRecipient * pRecip2;
int             iRecipientCount;

pRecipients->get_Count(&iRecipientCount);

for (int i = iRecipientCount; i > 0; i--)
{
    pRecipients->Item(i, &pRecipient)
    pRecipient->QueryInterface(IID_IPOlRecipient, (LPVOID*)&pRecip2);
    pRecip2->Resolve(TRUE, &bResolved);

    if (!bResolved)
    {
        pRecipients->Remove(i);
    }

    pRecip2->Release();
}

Send the Meeting Request:

pRecipients->get_Count(&iRecipientCount);

if (iRecipientCount > 0)
{
    pAppt->Send();
}

Example

The following code example demonstrates how to create a meeting request.

Note

To make the following code example easier to read, security checking and error handling are not included. This code example should not be used in a release configuration unless it has been modified to include them.

void CreateMeetingRequest(IPOutlookApp * polApp)
{
    IRecurrencePattern * pRec;
    IAppointment       * pAppt;
    IRecipients        * pRecipients;
    IRecipient         * pRecipient;
    BOOL                 bResolved

    // Add a new Appointment.
    polApp->CreateItem(olAppointmentItem, (IDispatch**)&pAppt);

    // Set the Subject on the Appointment item.
    pAppt->put_Subject(TEXT("Recurring Appointment"));

    // Convert the date Thursday, 05/10/07 at 8:30 PM, to a DATE object.
    SYSTEMTIME st;
    DATE       date;

    memset(&st, 0, sizeof(SYSTEMTIME));

    st.wMonth = 5;
    st.wDay   = 10;
    st.wYear  = 2007;
    st.wHour  = 20.5;

    polApp->SystemTimeToVariantTime(&st, &date);

    // Set the Start date.
    pAppt->put_Start(date);

    // Add the recipients.
    pAppt->get_Recipients(&pRecipients);

    pRecipients->Add(TEXT("Kathryn Wilson"), &pRecipient);
    pRecipients->Add(TEXT("Blanca"), &pRecipient);
    pRecipients->Add(TEXT("Robert"), &pRecipient);

    // Resolve the recipients against the list of Contacts on the mobile device.
    IPOlRecipient * pRecip2;
    int             iRecipientCount;

    pRecipients->get_Count(&iRecipientCount);

    // Count downward so that removing recipient does not reorder the remaining unresolved recipients.
    for (int i = iRecipientCount; i > 0; i--)
    {
        pRecipients->Item(i, &pRecipient)
        pRecipient->QueryInterface(IID_IPOlRecipient, (LPVOID*)&pRecip2);
        pRecip2->Resolve(TRUE, &bResolved);

        if (!bResolved)
        {
            pRecipients->Remove(i);
        }

        pRecip2->Release();
    }

    // Send the Meeting Request.
    pRecipients->get_Count(&iRecipientCount);

    if (iRecipientCount > 0)
    {
       pAppt->Send();
    {
}
