Interfaces

InterfaceDescription
IDiscussion An IDiscussion represents a collaboration discussion object. A Discussion contains zero or more messages and reply messages. This interface handles creation of messages, modifications of discussion metadata and security. Note that all operations modifying the discussion will not be stored permanently until Store method is called.
IDiscussionFilter Filters used for querying Discussions.
IDiscussionManager IDiscussionManager is an interface for discussion-related functionality. It handles discussion message creation, deletion and query.

A discussion contains zero or more messages. A Message is the smallest unit in a discussion and contains zero or one parent message and replies. A child of a message is a reply.

See Discussion Examples.
IDiscussionMessage IDiscussionMessage represents a collaboration discussion message object. This interface handles message modification and reply message creation.

A Message is the smallest unit in a discussion contains zero or one parent and zero or more children. A child of a message is a reply.

To create a reply message to a topic, call CreateDiscussionReplyMessage method on the topic message. To create a reply to a reply message, call CreateDiscussionReplyMessage method on the parent reply message, which is also an IDiscussionMessage. This will create a tree-like structure of the messages with various levels of reply.

Note that all discussion message modifications will not be stored permanently until Store method is called.
IDiscussionMessageFilter Filters used for querying Discussion messages. By default a discussion message filter will be set to give the largest possible result set. The various setter methods can be used to narrow the kinds of results to return.
