PIMPR_CONTACTTYPE (Compact 7)

3/12/2014

The PIMPR_CONTACTTYPE enumeration contains values for the PIMPR_CONTACT_TYPE property-which identifies where a Contact item is from; either from the mobile device (the traditional source), or from the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM and USIM). For more information on the PIMPR_CONTACT_TYPE property, see Contact Property ID's.

Syntax

enum PIMPR_CONTACTTYPE {
  PIMPR_CONTACTTYPE_DEVICE  = 0,
  PIMPR_CONTACTTYPE_SIM     = 1,
};

Elements

• PIMPR_CONTACTTYPE_DEVICE
  The Contact item comes from the mobile device.

• PIMPR_CONTACTTYPE_SIM
  The Contact item comes from the SIM or USIM.

Remarks

You cannot synchronize SIM Contact items.

Your POOM code can process SIM Contact items (that is, Contact items with the PIMPR_CONTACT_TYPE value of PIMPR_CONTACTTYPE_SIM) as generic OlItemType::olContactItem POOM items, but you must accommodate for the differences in their supported POOM properties. The POOM properties that are supported by SIM Contacts is determined by the SIM's phonebook capabilities. You can query a SIM for a list of its capabilities by calling the SimGetDevCaps function, and then using this information to control the behavior of your Contact processing code. For more information, see the SIM Manager Reference.

Universal SIMs (USIMs) are the next-generation (3G) Subscriber Identity Modules. Like SIMs, they employ Universal Integrated Circuit Card (UICC) SmartCard technology, but include advanced support for UMTS Mobile Telephony and expanded onboard memory capabilities.
