Notifications

Notifications are the messages that sent to a parent window of the IM client application and notify about any events initiated by the IM server. Notifications deliver information on incoming and forwarded instant messages, changes in the user's Contact List, adding/removing assigned messaging groups, changing group permissions, etc. The handle to the window of the application that should receive these notifications is set through the IServerClient::Initialize function call.

Notifications are sent in the form of WM_NOTIFY_SERVER message.

lResult = SendMessage(     (HWND) hParentWnd,     (UINT) WM_NOTIFY_SERVER,     (WPARAM) wParam,     (LPARAM) lParam );
