Category Instances for Presence
This content is no longer actively maintained. It is provided as is, for anyone who may still be using these technologies, with no warranties or claims of accuracy with regard to the most recent product version or service release.
Unified Communications Client API exposes strongly typed category instance interfaces and events to encapsulate presence-related category instances that are defined and used by Office Communicator. With these interfaces and events, a Unified Communications Client API client interoperates with the Office Communicator without requiring detailed knowledge of the proprietary category schemas. The Unified Communications Client API application can also use these interfaces and events as the presence model of the application. However, the application developer must exercise caution to avoid any potential conflict between the application's implementation and the Office Communicator implementation, if the application might interoperate with Office Communicator.
