Call Resume Tutorial

This tutorial describes how to resume a call with the telephony API for applications.

Steps

create a new instance of CTelephony
use CTelephony::GetCallDynamicCaps() to check if the device supports resume function
once a call is on hold, you can resume the call by with CTelephony::Resume(). Pass the ID of the call to resume.
pass the enumeration CTelephony::EResumeCancel to cancel the asynchronous request

Call resume example

#include <e32base.h>
#include <Etel3rdParty.h>

class CClientApp : public CActive
    { 

private:
    CTelephony* iTelephony;
    CTelephony::TCallId iCallId;

public:
    CClientApp(CTelephony* aTelephony, CTelephony::TCallId aCallId);
    TInt SomeFunction();

private:
    /*
       These are the pure virtual methods from CActive that  
       MUST be implemented by all active objects
       */
    void RunL();
    void DoCancel();
   };

CClientApp::CClientApp(CTelephony* aTelephony, CTelephony::TCallId aCallId)
    : CActive(EPriorityStandard),
      iTelephony(aTelephony),
      iCallId(aCallId)
    {
    //default constructor
    }

TInt CClientApp::SomeFunction()
    {
    // Check that the phone supports Resuming calls.
    CTelephony::TCallCapsV1 callCapsV1;
    CTelephony::TCallCapsV1Pckg callCapsV1Pckg(callCapsV1);
    iTelephony->GetCallDynamicCaps(iCallId, callCapsV1Pckg);

    if( callCapsV1.iControlCaps & CTelephony::KCapsResume )
       {
       // The call represented by 'iCallId' can be resumed
       iTelephony->Resume(iStatus, iCallId);
       SetActive();
       return KErrNone;
       }
    else
       {
       // The call cannot be resumed; 
       // return an error indicate this.
       return KErrNotSupported;
       }
    }

void CClientApp::RunL()
    {
    if(iStatus==KErrNone)
       {} // The call has been resumed successfully;
    }

void CClientApp::DoCancel()
    {
    iTelephony->CancelAsync(CTelephony::EResumeCancel);
    }
