2.2.4.1.3.10 CreateAgent

The CreateAgent packet is transmitted from a TAPI client to a TAPI server in a remote procedure call. Sending this packet creates a new agent object. It generates a LINE_PROXYREQUEST packet to be sent to a registered proxy function handler, referencing a LINEPROXYREQUEST packet of type LINEPROXYREQUEST_CREATEAGENT.

Req_Func (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. The identifier of the function that will be invoked on the remote server. This value MUST be set to 146.

Return Values

On completion of ClientRequest, this field contains the result of the encapsulated telephony request. A nonzero request ID value indicates that the request is in progress and will complete asynchronously and a LINEERR_Constants value indicates synchronous failure.

MUST return a request identifier if the asynchronous operation starts; otherwise, the function MUST return one of the following error values:

Name

Value

LINEERR_INVALLINEHANDLE

0x8000002B

LINEERR_INVALPARAM

0x80000032

LINEERR_NOMEM

0x80000044

LINEERR_OPERATIONFAILED

0x80000048

LINEERR_OPERATIONUNAVAIL

0x80000049

LINEERR_RESOURCEUNAVAIL

0x8000004B

LINEERR_UNINITIALIZED

0x80000050

Reserved1 (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. MUST be set to zero when sent and MUST be ignored on receipt.

dwRequestID (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. The identifier of the asynchronous request.

Value

Meaning

0x00000000

The server MUST generate a unique positive request ID to return as the Ack_ReturnValue.

0x00000001 — 0x7FFFFFFF

The server MUST use this value instead of generating a unique positive request ID.

lpContext (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. The opaque, client-specified value that is used by the client upon request completion; MUST be returned by the server in the request completion packet.

hLine (4 bytes): An HLINE. The handle to the line device. This field MUST have been obtained by sending the Open packet.

lpszAgentID (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. The offset, in bytes, of a null-terminated Unicode string that contains the agent identifier in the VarData field. This field is set to TAPI_NO_DATA (0xFFFFFFFF) if no agent identifier was specified.

lpszAgentPIN (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. The offset, in bytes, of a null-terminated Unicode string that contains the agent PIN or password in the VarData field. This field is set to TAPI_NO_DATA (0xFFFFFFFF) if no agent PIN was specified.

lphAgentContext (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. The opaque, client-specified value that is used by the client upon request completion; MUST be returned by the server in the request completion packet.

Reserved2 (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. This field is used for padding and MUST be ignored on receipt. It can be any value.

Reserved3 (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. This field is used for padding and MUST be ignored on receipt. It can be any value.

Reserved4 (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. This field is used for padding and MUST be ignored on receipt. It can be any value.

Reserved5 (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. This field is used for padding and MUST be ignored on receipt. It can be any value.

Reserved6 (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. This field is used for padding and MUST be ignored on receipt. It can be any value.

Reserved7 (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. This field is used for padding and MUST be ignored on receipt. It can be any value.

Reserved8 (4 bytes): An unsigned 32-bit integer. This field is used for padding and MUST be ignored on receipt. It can be any value.

VarData (variable): Contains the null-terminated Unicode strings that are indicated in the lpszAgentID and lpszAgentPIN fields.

The contents of this field MUST be DWORD-aligned, as specified in [MS-DTYP] section 2.2.9.
