IMessaging.Send()

Description:

The Send method sends an SMS or MMS message.

This method can be called both synchronously and asynchronously.

Syntax:

For synchronous calls:

result = so.IMessaging.Send(criteria);

For asynchronous calls:

result = so.IMessaging.Send(criteria, callback);

Arguments:

• criteria:

  This is an object that specifies the type and details of the message to send. For more information about the object properties and how to define them, see section Criteria for sending a message.

• callback:

  The callback argument is the name of the method that is executed when an asynchronous Send call has status information to return. You must define this method separately. Follow the instructions in section Defining the callback handler for an asynchronous method to define the callback method.

  This argument is used only with an asynchronous Send call.

Return value:

If synchronous, the Send method returns an object that contains an error code and an error message.

If asynchronous, the method returns an object that contains a transaction ID for the callback instance, an error code, and an error message (see the following table). When the asynchronous call has completed, callback returns an object that contains an error code and an error message (see Table: Callback return value).

Remarks:

Apart from status information and transaction IDs for asynchronous calls, the Send method does not return any result information.
