Enum Participant.TEXT_STATUS

java.lang.Object
  extended by java.lang.Enum<Participant.TEXT_STATUS>
      extended by com.skype.api.Participant.TEXT_STATUS
All Implemented Interfaces:
java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<Participant.TEXT_STATUS>
Enclosing class:
Participant

public static enum Participant.TEXT_STATUS
extends java.lang.Enum<Participant.TEXT_STATUS>

Recognized values for the P_TEXT_STATUS property. The P_TEXT_STATUS property has two uses. Firstly, you can use it to implement typing indicators in your UI, to notify the local user that an incoming chat message from this Participant is imminent.

To set the P_TEXT_STATUS value, so that remote client UIs can display the local user's typing indicator in their UI, use Conversation.SetMyTextStatusTo method.

Transmission of P_TEXT_STATUS updates to remote participants of conversations is controlled via SETUPKEY_DISABLE_CHAT_ACTIVITY_INDICATION setup key.

Secondly, the TEXT_NA value enables you to detect participants who are running clients with no chat capability.


Enum Constant Summary
READING
          Participant is currently not typing.
TEXT_NA
          Text status is not applicable as the participant is using a Skype client that does not support chat (for example: voice-only USB phones).
TEXT_UNKNOWN
          Fallback state in case the text status is not (yet) deternmined.
WRITING
          Participant is currently typing.
WRITING_AS_ANGRY
          This state should be set when following two conditions are true:
- interval between keypresses are less than 20 ms;
- at least one of the keys adjacent to current key are pressed down.
WRITING_AS_CAT
          The "Cat on keyboard detection" algorthm in Skype is implemented in the UI level, and as such is not present in the SkypeKit API.

Enum Constant Detail

TEXT_UNKNOWN

public static final Participant.TEXT_STATUS TEXT_UNKNOWN
Fallback state in case the text status is not (yet) deternmined.


TEXT_NA

public static final Participant.TEXT_STATUS TEXT_NA
Text status is not applicable as the participant is using a Skype client that does not support chat (for example: voice-only USB phones).


READING

public static final Participant.TEXT_STATUS READING
Participant is currently not typing.


WRITING

public static final Participant.TEXT_STATUS WRITING
Participant is currently typing.


WRITING_AS_ANGRY

public static final Participant.TEXT_STATUS WRITING_AS_ANGRY
This state should be set when following two conditions are true:
- interval between keypresses are less than 20 ms;
- at least one of the keys adjacent to current key are pressed down.


WRITING_AS_CAT

public static final Participant.TEXT_STATUS WRITING_AS_CAT
The "Cat on keyboard detection" algorthm in Skype is implemented in the UI level, and as such is not present in the SkypeKit API. Should you wish to implement similar algorthm in your own UI, you can get the basic logic from the PawSense FAQ - http://www.bitboost.com/pawsense/pawsense-faq.html

Method Detail

values

public static Participant.TEXT_STATUS[] values()
Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
for (Participant.TEXT_STATUS c : Participant.TEXT_STATUS.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:
an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static Participant.TEXT_STATUS valueOf(java.lang.String name)
Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:
name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
Returns:
the enum constant with the specified name
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null

getId

public int getId()

get

public static Participant.TEXT_STATUS get(int code)

fromString

public static Participant.TEXT_STATUS fromString(java.lang.String s)
