Use the lineSetPreferredOperator function to set or delete a preferred operator. The preferred operator list is stored locally on the phone and automatic registration iterates through this list when attempting to register.

LONG WINAPI lineSetPreferredOperator(
  HLINE hLine,
  LPLINEOPERATOR lpOperator
);

Parameters

  • hLine
    The line device handle. The line device handle must have been previously obtained by a call to lineOpen with the proper TAPI device ID specified and a device-specific extension version successfully negotiated with lineNegotiateExtVersion. For more information about lineNegotiateExtVersion and lineOpen, see the TAPI Functions API Reference topics on MSDN.
  • lpOperator
    Points to a LINEOPERATOR structure that provides information about a preferred operator. If the dwIndex member is LINEOPERATOR_USEFIRSTAVAILABLEINDEX, write to first available location. If dwValidParams is LINEOPFORMAT_NONE and dwIndex is not LINEOPERATOR_USEFIRSTAVAILABLEINDEX, erase the operator entry at dwIndex.
