IXPLogon::TransportNotify
Applies to: Office 2010 | Outlook 2010 | Visual Studio
Signals the occurrence of an event about which the transport provider requested notification.
HRESULT TransportNotify(
ULONG FAR * lpulFlags,
LPVOID FAR * lppvData
);
Parameters
lpulFlags
[in, out] A bitmask of flags that signals notification events. The following flags can be set by the MAPI spooler on input and must be returned unchanged on output:NOTIFY_ABORT_DEFERRED
Notifies the transport provider that a message for which it accepted responsibility is being deferred. Only transport providers that support deferral must support this flag. The lppvData parameter points to the entry identifier of the canceled message. Messages that the MAPI spooler has not processed can still be deferred by calling the IMsgStore::AbortSubmit method.NOTIFY_BEGIN_INBOUND
The MAPI spooler can now accept inbound messages for this transport provider session. The MAPI spooler regularly calls the IXPLogon::Poll method if the transport provider set the LOGON_SP_POLL flag with the IXPProvider::TransportLogon call at logon. Once the NOTIFY_BEGIN_INBOUND flag is set, the MAPI spooler honors the NOTIFY_NEWMAIL flag passed in the call to the IMAPISupport::SpoolerNotify method. The status table row for the transport provider session should be updated before returning by calling the IMAPISupport::ModifyStatusRow method. The NOTIFY_BEGIN_INBOUND and NOTIFY_END_INBOUND flags are mutually exclusive.NOTIFY_BEGIN_INBOUND_FLUSH
Signals the transport provider to cycle through inbound messages as quickly as possible. To comply with this notification, the transport provider should set the STATUS_INBOUND_FLUSH flag in the PR_STATUS_CODE (PidTagStatusCode) property of its status table row as soon as it can, by using ModifyStatusRow. An inbound messaging cycle is complete when the provider determines it has downloaded all it can, or when it has received a TransportNotify method call with the NOTIFY_END_INBOUND_FLUSH flag set. Until the end of the inbound messaging cycle, the provider should not call the IMAPISupport::SpoolerYield method or otherwise relinquish cycles to the operating system to speed delivery of incoming messages. This is acceptable because the MAPI spooler typically uses NOTIFY_BEGIN_INBOUND_FLUSH only in response to a user's request, via a client application, to deliver all messages now. At the end of the inbound flush operation, the provider should use SpoolerNotify to clear the STATUS_INBOUND_FLUSH flag in the PR_STATUS_CODE property of its status row.NOTIFY_BEGIN_OUTBOUND
Outbound operations can now occur for this transport provider session. If there are any messages to be sent for this provider, a call to the IXPLogon::SubmitMessage method follows. The status table row for this session should be updated before returning. The NOTIFY_BEGIN_OUTBOUND and NOTIFY_END_OUTBOUND flags are mutually exclusive.NOTIFY_BEGIN_OUTBOUND_FLUSH
Works similarly to the NOTIFY_BEGIN_INBOUND_FLUSH flag, but refers to outbound messages. The appropriate status flag is STATUS_OUTBOUND_FLUSH.NOTIFY_CANCEL_MESSAGE
The MAPI spooler must cancel transfer of the message for which the lppvData parameter points to the 32-bit value from the IXPLogon::SubmitMessage method call. The NOTIFY_CANCEL_MESSAGE flag can be set without the transport provider having returned from the SubmitMessage, IXPLogon::StartMessage, or IXPLogon::EndMessage method call that is associated with the message. The transport provider must return as soon as possible from the entry point that is handling the canceled message. For an inbound message that is currently being processed, the transport provider should save the incoming message wherever it is presently stored and deliver it again at the next convenient time. The message object data already stored for the incoming message is discarded. If the transport provider did not update this 32-bit value at the StartMessage or SubmitMessage time, the value is 0 for outbound messages and 1 for inbound messages.NOTIFY_END_INBOUND
Inbound operations must cease for this transport provider session. The MAPI spooler ceases to use the Poll method and ignores NOTIFY_NEWMAIL for this session. In-process messages should be completed. The status table row for the transport session should be updated by calling ModifyStatusRow before returning. The NOTIFY_END_INBOUND and NOTIFY_BEGIN_INBOUND flags are mutually exclusive.NOTIFY_END_INBOUND_FLUSH
Notifies the transport provider to come out of inbound flush mode. The transport provider should not stop downloading, but downloading should be done in the background. The status table row for the transport session should be updated by calling ModifyStatusRow when the transport provider can comply with this notification.NOTIFY_END_OUTBOUND
Outbound operations must cease for this transport provider session. The MAPI spooler ceases to call SubmitMessage and ignores the SpoolerNotify NOTIFY_READYTOSEND flag. If there is an outbound message currently being sent, it should not be stopped; to stop delivery of a message, use the NOTIFY_CANCEL_MESSAGE flag. The status table row for this session should be updated by calling ModifyStatusRow before returning. The NOTIFY_END_INBOUND and NOTIFY_BEGIN_OUTBOUND flags are mutually exclusive.NOTIFY_END_OUTBOUND_FLUSH
Works similarly to NOTIFY_END_INBOUND_FLUSH, but refers to outbound messages. The appropriate status flag is STATUS_OUTBOUND_FLUSH.
lppvData
[out] A pointer to a pointer to event-specific data. For more information about what lppvData specifies, see the description for the lpulFlags parameter.
Return Value
- S_OK
The call succeeded and returned the expected value or values.
Remarks
The MAPI spooler calls the IXPLogon::TransportNotify method to signal the transport provider about events for which notification has been requested. These events include a MAPI spooler request to cancel a message transfer, the beginning or ending of inbound or outbound transport operations, and the beginning or ending of an operation to clear an inbound or outbound message queue.
When the user tries to cancel a message that the transport provider has previously deferred, the MAPI spooler calls TransportNotify, passing in both the NOTIFY_ABORT_DEFERRED and NOTIFY_CANCEL_MESSAGE flags in ulFlags. If the MAPI spooler is logging off and still has messages in the queue, it passes only NOTIFY_ABORT_DEFERRED in ulFlags when it calls TransportNotify.
Notes to Implementers
The provider must synchronize access to its data on this call, because the MAPI spooler can invoke this method from another thread of execution or from a procedure for a different window. This will most likely occur when the MAPI spooler signals the cancellation of a message that the transport provider has started sending.
