Descripton of EventType in VB

[Haldane]

Does anyone know how to get the description of the event type in vb from the eventinfo. I have the following

Dim MyEventType as String
With Eventifo
    MyEventType = .EventType
end with

But MyEventType keeps coming back with the numeric id. eg 53 adn I want the des of "EventRegistered".
Is there a way to enumerate out the description?

Not sure about VB...

But in the t-lib SDK there is a function called TGetMessageTypeName defined as:

const char *TGetMessageTypeName(enum TMessageType msg_type);

usage:

(char *) TGetMessageTypeName(event->Event)

where

TEvent *event is the event structure passed in from the dispatch function.

I know this isn't VB, but maybe it helps...

Genecist,
    Cheers looks good to me. I'll test it later and let you know.

Genecist,
      My application is based on the DesktopToolkit. I guess this fuction is not part of the toolkit as I cannot see it in the object browser. Looking like I have to wrtie my own function to return the value.

There is no such funcionality in Activex, in TLib there exists the function that returns the match of the numeric value. Why you need the events name?

If you're using VB6, you can still map to the TGetMessageTypeName function in tlib_MD.dll.

It's been a while since I've done VB6 integration with a 'C' library, but it would be along the lines of

Declare Function TGetMessageTypeName Lib "tlib_MD.dll" (ByVal lEvent As Integer) As String

You'll have to play with it, but it should work.

If you're going to 'roll' your own, the events and their corresponding identifiers are as follows (taken from tlibrary.h):

Thanks for your help Genecist... I just wrote my own function for the moment. When I redo the project in VS2005 I'lll try and intergrate the C lib's or I may look at the Genesys .NET server. I just need something quick for the moment.

Thanks Again

In .Net if you have any enum you can always use the following, where MessageType is an enum:

MessageType.ToString()
