The ReportSMSStatusMessage function, in Configuration Manager, submits a status message object to the Configuration Manager status system and then deallocates the object.

[C/C++]
typedef DWORD (WINAPI *PROC_REPORTSMSSTATUSMESSAGE)
(
	HANDLE hStatusMessageObject,
	LPCSTR pszComponentName,
	LPCSTR pszSiteCode,
	LPCSTR pszTopLevelSiteCode
);

Parameters

hStatusMessageObject


Data type: HANDLEQualifiers: [in, out]Handle to the status message object. On input, supply the handle retrieved by CreateSMSStatusMessage Function. On successful return from the function, this parameter contains the handle to the deallocated object.The behavior of this function is undefined for invalid handles and throws an access violation exception. Therefore, ensure that you supply a valid handle for this parameter. See Remarks.
pszComponentName


Data type: LPCSTRQualifiers: [in]Pointer to the name of the component reporting the status message. This name is a null-terminated ASCII component name. It appears in Status Message Viewer in the Component column and in Windows NT Event Viewer in the Category column. For more information , see the Remarks section later in this topic.
pszSiteCode


Data type: LPCSTRQualifiers: [in]Pointer to the Configuration Manager site code for the site to which to report the status message. The code is a null-terminated ASCII code that is exactly three characters long. Alternatively you can set this parameter to null. For more information, see the Remarks section later in this topic.
pszTopLevelSiteCode


Data type: LPCSTRQualifiers: [in]Pointer to the Configuration Manager site code for the highest site in the hierarchy to which the message can be replicated. The code is a null-terminated ASCII code. Alternatively, you can set this parameter to null. For more information, see the Remarks section later in this topic.

Return Values

This function returns one of the values in the following table.

Value Description

SMSSTATMSG_SUCCESS

The object was successfully submitted to the Configuration Manager status system.

SMSSTATMSG_OUT_OF_MEMORY

This function failed to allocate enough memory to submit the object to the Configuration Manager status system.

SMSSTATMSG_ERROR_INVALID_COMPONENT_NAME

The caller supplied null or a string that exceeded SMSSTATMSG_MAX_COMPONENT_NAME_LENGTH characters in length for the pszComponentName parameter.

SMSSTATMSG_ERROR_INVALID_SITE_CODE

The caller supplied a non-NULL invalid string for pszSiteCode.

SMSSTATMSG_ERROR_UNKNOWN

The function encountered an unknown error while trying to submit the object to the Configuration Manager status system.

SMSSTATMSG_ERROR_INVALID_TOP_LEVEL_SC

The caller supplied a non-NULL invalid string for pszTopLevelSiteCode.

SMSSTATMSG_ERROR_NOT_SMS_CLIENT

This function failed to submit the object to the Configuration Manager status system because the Configuration Manager client software is not properly installed on this computer.

Remarks

Smscstat.h includes the following #define for calling ReportSMSStatusMessage by using the Win32 function GetProcAddress.

  Copy Code
#define PROCNAME_REPORTSMSSTATUSMESSAGE "ReportSMSStatusMessage"

When calling this function, use the hStatusMessageObject parameter to supply a handle for the status message to report. When this function returns, the retrieved object is guaranteed to be deallocated, regardless of the success of the function. If the function is unsuccessful and you want your application to try again, create a new status message before calling ReportSMSStatusMessage.

Use the pszComponentName parameter of this function to supply a name for the component that is reporting the status message. This name is not localizable to other languages, because the Configuration Manager administrator creates queries and filter rules that are based on the component name. This assists the administrator in quickly retrieving your particular status messages and in configuring Configuration Manager to handle these status messages in special ways.

In the pszSiteCode parameter, supply the code for the Configuration Manager site to which to submit the message. The code must be for one of the sites to which the Configuration Manager client currently belongs. Generally, you should supply null for this parameter, to indicate that the status message should be reported to all Configuration Manager sites to which the Configuration Manager client belongs.

The status system stops replication at the site indicated by pszTopLevelSiteCode no matter how the administrator has configured the replication rules. Generally, you should specify null for this parameter, to indicate that there is no top-level site code and that the message is free to replicate all the way to the top of the hierarchy. However, if there is a reason to prevent the replication past a certain site, you can supply the site code of that site using the pszTopLevelSiteCode parameter.
