Requesting notifications

 

In most cases, you set up notifications to be informed of user interface events. This allows the integration to respond to actions that the user performs through the Imagenation interface.

Normally, you register the notifications at the start of your integration. You would use the notification item syntax as an XTYP_ADVSTART.

When any of the registered user interface events occur, Imagenation sends a notification of the XTYP_ADVDATA type to client applications. These notifications contain both item and data syntax. The integration can use the data to handle the interface action or request.

Normally you unregister notifications as part of the shut down procedure. You would use the notification item syntax as an XTYP_ADVSTOP.
