2.2.3.1.3 LINEADDRESSSHARING_Constants

The LINEADDRESSSHARING_Constants are bit-flag constants that describe various ways that an address can be shared between lines.

Constant/value

Description

LINEADDRESSSHARING_PRIVATE

0x00000001

The address must be private to the user's line; it must not be assigned to any other station.

LINEADDRESSSHARING_BRIDGEDEXCL

0x00000002

The address must be bridged to one or more other stations. The first line to activate a call on the line will have exclusive access to the address and calls that might exist on it. Other lines must not be able to use the bridged address while it is in use.

LINEADDRESSSHARING_BRIDGEDNEW

0x00000004

The address must be bridged with one or more other stations. The first line to activate a call on the line must have exclusive access to only the corresponding call. Other applications that use the address must result in new and separate call appearances.

LINEADDRESSSHARING_BRIDGEDSHARED

0x00000008

The address is bridged with one or more other lines. All bridged parties can share in calls on the address, which then functions as a conference.

LINEADDRESSSHARING_MONITORED

0x00000010

An address whose idle or busy status must be made available to this line.

The way in which an address MUST be shared across lines can affect the behavior of that address. LINE_CALLSTATE and LINE_ADDRESSSTATE packets are sent to the application in response to activities by the bridging stations. It MUST be through these packets that an application can track the status of the address.
