IRecurrencePattern::get_Duration (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

The Duration property gets or sets the length of a recurring Appointment, in minutes (not the length of time that the recurrence pattern lasts).

To get the value of the Duration property, call the property method described here.

To set the value of the Duration property, see the IRecurrencePattern::put_Duration property method.

Syntax

HRESULT get_Duration(
  long * plDuration
);

Parameters

• plDuration
  [out] Reference to an integer value indicating the length of time, in minutes, of the recurring Appointment.

Return Value

This method returns the standard values E_INVALIDARG, E_OUTOFMEMORY, E_UNEXPECTED, and E_FAIL, as well as the following:

• S_OK
  The method completed successfully.

Remarks

Recurrence duration applies to IAppointment items only.

Recurrence duration is the difference between PIMPR_RECURRING_ENDTIME and PIMPR_RECURRING_STARTTIME.

If you do not set the duration, Outlook Mobile sets it from information contained in the Appointment item.

The Duration value is ignored if you set both IRecurrencePattern::put_StartTime and IRecurrencePattern::put_EndTime. If you set only one, Outlook Mobile uses the Duration value to calculate the other.

The Duration value cannot be longer than 31 days.

When you change a Recurrence Pattern's Duration property, the Duration property of each Appointment item that is associated with this Recurrence Pattern also changes. For example, you might use IRecurrencePattern::put_Duration if you wanted to change the duration of a weekly meeting from 60 minutes, to 30 minutes.
