Namespace: Microsoft.Office.Interop.UccApi
Assembly: Microsoft.Office.Interop.UccApi (in microsoft.office.interop.uccapi.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
ReadOnly Property PublishedTime As DateTime
DateTime PublishedTime { get; }
property DateTime PublishedTime {
    DateTime get ();
}
/** @property */
DateTime get_PublishedTime ()
function get PublishedTime () : DateTime

Property Value

A value of the DATE* (DateTime, for a .NET application) type.

Remarks

The value of the PublishedTime property for category instances published by the local user is zero. Category instances received due to a subscription or query on a remote user return non-zero values.

Note

Category instances published by federated (OC client in different enterprise) users may not supply a published time.

Win32 COM/C++ Syntax

HRESULT get_PublishedTime
(
   DATE* pPublishedTime
);

Note

In a Win32 application, the return value of a method or property is always an HRESULT value indicating the status of the call to the interface member. Any result of the operation is returned as a parameter marked with the [out, retval] attribute. In contrast, in a .NET application the HRESULT value indicating an error condition is returned as a COM exception and the [out, retval] parameter becomes the return value. For the UCC API-defined HRESULT values, see Trace and Handle Errors in Unified Communications Client API.

Example

The example handles the OnCategoryInstanceValueModified. If the modified category instance was last published after the year 1900, the example code displays the time and date of the last publishing of the category instance on the local user's system console.

void _IUccCategoryInstanceEvents.OnCategoryInstanceValueModified(
    IUccCategoryInstance pEventSource, object pEventData)
{
    //process the updated "contactCard" category instance
    if (pEventSource.CategoryContext.Name == "contactCard")
    {
        if (pCategory.CategoryInstance.PublishedTime.Year > 1900)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(
                "Contact Card was last published: " +
                pCategory.CategoryInstance.PublishedTime.ToLongDateString().Trim() +
                " " +
                pCategory.CategoryInstance.PublishedTime.ToLongTimeString());
        }
    }
}
