1. Sending instant messages

int SkypeSendInstantMessageW(string skype_name,string message,int status);
int SkypeSendInstantMessageA(string skype_name,string message,int status);// 메타트레이더용 4

There are several tests in a function before sending instant message:

• The user name cannot be empty or begin with a number.
• The user with the specified name must be in the contact list.
• The message cannot be an empty string.
• The network status of the recipient must coincide with the specified value.

The list of the network status constants:

constant name	값	description
STATUS_OFFLINE	1	Offline
STATUS_ONLINE	2	Online
STATUS_AWAY	4	Out of place
STATUS_DONT_DISTURB	16	Do not disturb

To set several allowed statuses simultaneously bit-by-bit addition of constants is used, 예를 들어: STATUS_ONLINE | STATUS_AWAY.

The maximum length of an instant message is ~8000 ANSI symbols, ~4000 Unicode symbols.

The example of a code:

string InpSkypeName     =  "echo123";        // Skype name
string InpTextMessage   =  "안녕하세요 :)";       // Text message

string msg;
ENUM_SKYPE_ERROR err=(ENUM_SKYPE_ERROR)SkypeSendInstantMessageW(InpSkypeName,InpTextMessage,STATUS_ONLINE|STATUS_AWAY);

만약에(err==ERROR_NO_ERRORS) msg=StringFormat("Sent IM to %s, %에스",InpSkypeName,InpTextMessage);
또 다른 msg=StringFormat("Error sending IM to %s, 오류: %에스",InpSkypeName,EnumToString(err));

Print(msg);

2. Sending SMS messages

The service to send SMS messages is fee-paid at the moment!

int SkypeSendSmsMessageW(string phone_number, string message);
int SkypeSendSmsMessageA(string phone_number, string message);// для MetaTrader 4

• The telephone number must be specified in the international format: + [country code] [city or network code] [telephone number]
• The length of the string which contains the telephone number must be at least 7 symbols and start with a '+' sign
• Text message must not be an empty string

Sending SMS to a non existing number is not an error. The cost for this operation will be charged, but returned after a short time, as the actual message wasn't delivered.

input string InpPhoneNumber   =  "+380123456789";  // Phone number
input string InpTextMessage   =  "안녕하세요 :)";       // Text message

string msg;
ENUM_SKYPE_ERROR err==(ENUM_SKYPE_ERROR) SkypeSendSmsMessageW(InpPhoneNumber,InpTextMessage);

만약에(err==ERROR_NO_ERRORS) msg=StringFormat("Sent SMS to %s, %에스",InpPhoneNumber,InpTextMessage);
