Windows Live Messenger Web Toolkit Class Reference
User..::.ApplicationDisplayName Property

Gets or sets the user's application-specific display name.

Script:  http://www.wlmessenger.net/api/3.5/loader.js
Feature:  Messenger.Core
Namespace:  Microsoft.Live.Messenger
 
Syntax

// To retrieve:
var applicationDisplayName = instance.get_applicationDisplayName();

// To update:
instance.set_applicationDisplayName(value);
public string ApplicationDisplayName { get; set; }
Remarks

This property contains the user's application-specific display name. Once the name is assigned, the user's application contacts will receive the display name through the Messenger service and the ApplicationDisplayName property of the Contact for the user will have the user's application display name.

The application-specific display name is not persisted across user sessions, so an application must provide it each time that the user signs into Messenger.

The IsDisplayNameValid(String) method can be used to validate user input for an application display name.
