C# Example Project For Skype4COM

By My status Don Kennedy on December 31, 2006 in Developer Blog.

Happy New Year everyone. Just wanted to start the new year right with an example to help others who are thinking of using C# to do development of an application to interface to the Skype client.

Picture of Example Program

Many people in the API forum have been asking for more examples using C# using the Skype4COM interface. So here is one example done using the Microsoft Visual C# 2005 Express Edition.

Microsoft Visual C# 2005 Express Edition is free and can be downloaded here in the event you don’t have it:

Microsoft Visual C# 2005 Express Edition

The purpose of this example project/application is to show how to process Attachment, Call, Connect, Message and User status events using the Skype4COMLib as the interface from a C Sharp Application. it also includes a “Silent Mode” button that can be used many ways as well.

For more detail on what this example project can do please see this post in the API forum:

API Forum Post

The CS project includes all files as well as the compiled debug and release .exe’s and has been added as a .zip file on the Skype4COM example page under “CS Examples” listed here as well:

Happy new and creative year 2007 to all our software partners

Paul has asked me to drop you all a note (cf. december newsletter) – not just to wish you all “Merry Christmas” but also to tell you a bit more about what’s in store for Skype next year.

But before I do, I wanted to say that for so long, we’ve been really keen to bring our developer community closer to Skype. Why? Well, we see you as key partners for us to take Skype further on its journey of becoming the world’s greatest internet communications offering. And we mean it!

Shall we code together?

By My status Antoine "Ants" on December 7, 2006 in Skype4COM.

As Don Kennedy shared with us about Skype4COM latest release, we thought you could have some good sample code or examples you would like to link or upload in the DevZone.

We are keen on sharing (never too much). So from now, you and us can provide to others who are just starting out examples on how to use any Skype API interfaces (actually Skype4COM to begin with) as much as possible new examples.

A new page has been created that allows developers to show code snippets.

Please, feel free to contribute under the language section of your choice (both by uploading or downloading).

This new page can be found here: https://developer.skype.com/Docs/Examples

Don’t by shy, let’s help some of the new developers out and save them some time, post your examples there, and show everyone just how easy and flexable the Skype4COM interface really is, for example.

Skype4COM Goes 1/2 Naked

By My status Don Kennedy on December 1, 2006 in Developer Blog.

So, you thought things would stay the same? This is Skype folks, always moving forward, providing new and interesting ways to spice up your Skype Applications. So here is the Link to the new docoumentation on Skype4COM version 1.0.26.0 which is fully documented https://developer.skype.com/Docs/Skype4COMLib

There are so many new features we could get into, but for now let’s try to focus on one of them, The “Silent Mode” feature.

Sounds Mysterious?

What exactly does Silent Mode mean?

What Silent Mode means is it allows you the application designer to put the Skype GUI in kind of a sleep mode. I like to call it “Naked Skype with Underwear”, because the user only needs to click on the Skype Icon in the System Tray (“That little one on the bottom right :P”) to instantly regain the normal features the Skype client provides.

Ok, but why would I as a developer ever want to use something like this?

Here is one example.
