Adobe ColdFusion 8

setPermitMode

Description

Sets the gateway's permit mode on the IM server. The permit mode determines whether all users can get the gateway's online state information, or whether the server uses a permit list or a deny list to control which users get state information.

Syntax

Boolean = setPermitMode(permitMode)

Parameters

Parameter

Description

permitMode

The permission mode, one of the following:

  • PERMIT_ALL Permits all users to be aware of the gateway's online presence and state. This is the default mode if you do not call this function.
  • PERMIT_SOME Permits only users in the permit list to be aware of the gateway's online presence and state.
  • DENY_SOME Prevents all users in the deny list from being aware of the gateway's online presence and state.

Returns

True if the permit mode was set; False otherwise.

Note: XMPP permission management is included in the XMPP 1.0 draft specification, but several XMPP servers that were available at the time of the ColdFusion 8 release do not support permission management. If the server does not support permission management, this function returns False to all values except PERMIT_ALL.

Example

See "GatewayHelper example", in the ColdFusion Developer's Guide, which uses all GatewayHelper class methods.
