Syntax

'Declaration
Sub RemovePhone ( _
    pPhone As UccPresenceContactCardPhone _
)
void RemovePhone (
    UccPresenceContactCardPhone pPhone
)
void RemovePhone (
    UccPresenceContactCardPhone^ pPhone

function RemovePhone (
    pPhone : UccPresenceContactCardPhone
)

Parameters

Remarks

This method removes the phone represented by the pPhone paramter from the phone collection. A phone collection can hold a single phone of a given UCC_CONTACT_CARD_PHONE_TYPE type. If an application method is passed an enumeration of the contact card type, it can get the corresponding IUccPresenceContactCardPhone instance out of the collection and pass that obtained instance to the RemovePhone method.

Win32 COM/C++ Syntax

HRESULT RemovePhone
(
   IUccPresenceContactCardPhone* pPhone
);

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 following example method accepts a string representing the type of phone to remove from a contact card phone collection. Using the passed string, the method finds the corresponding phone instance in the collection. Finally, the phone instance is removed from the collection. The example method is drawn from an application class that wraps an instance of IUccPresenceContactCardInstance (this._ContactCard). An advantage of this method signature is that calling code does not have to include a reference to the Microsoft.Office.Interop.UccApi namespace.
