PRB: NetMeeting UI Appears When Placing a Call to Another User

ID: Q191524

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft NetMeeting 2.1 Software Development Kit (SDK)

SYMPTOMS

When I use the NetMeeting SDK to build a conference application, why does the NetMeeting user interface, which was hidden, suddenly appear and cover my program's interface when I place a call to another user?

You are initializing NetMeeting using the NM_INIT_NORMAL control.

RESOLUTION

If you do not wish to launch the NetMeeting user interface, you should initialize NetMeeting using NM_INIT_CONTROL. Your call to INmManager::Initialize() should have the following syntax:

   ULONG uOptions = (ULONG) 1; // NM_INIT_CONTROL;
   INmManager::Initialize(&uOptions,..);
