2. Session Objectives Recap Lync Client SDK functionality
Overview of new Application Sharing Modalities
Future functionality

3. Agenda Overview Lync Client SDK Application Sharing Content Sharing
What’s New in the Lync Client SDK

4. Overview

5. The Lync Client SDK Introduced with Lync 2010 Managed .NET API
Lync controls for WPF and Silverlight
Automate Lync client functionality
Extend Lync client
Develop Persistent Chat applications

6. Building Blocks Lync Controls Automation Lync Managed API WPF
Silverlight
Automation
Lync Managed API

7. Development Experience
WPF and Silverlight
Silverlight
No out-of-browser support
Internet Explorer only
Hosting site must be a trusted site
Requires Lync client to be running on the machine
Reuses endpoint as a connection to Lync server infrastructure

8. Agenda Overview Lync Client SDK Application Sharing Content Sharing
What’s New in the Lync Client SDK

9. Developing with the Lync Client SDK

10. Lync Controls Drag and drop Lync feature integration Presence
Contact information
Contact list
Contact search
IM and audio click-to-communicate

11. Lync Controls
XAML:
<lync:PresenceIndicator />
<lync:PresenceIndicator Source="{Binding SipUri}" />
C#:
presenceIndicator.Source =
var contacts = new List<string>() { };
accountManagers.ItemsSource = contacts;

12. Lync Managed API Managed API for building communications applications
Productivity of IMessenger, but with more features
Power of UCC API, but less complex
Requires Lync client to be running

13. Lync Managed API – Signing In
// Get handle to running instance of Lync client
_lyncClient = Microsoft.Lync.Model.LyncClient.GetClient();
// Sign in to the Lync client
_lyncClient.BeginSignIn(
userUri,
domainAndUserName,
password,
signInResult => {
_lyncClient.EndSignIn(signInResult); },
"Local user signing in" as object);

14. Lync Managed API – Conversations
// Conversation Manager
Microsoft.Lync.Model.Conversation.ConversationManager
_conversationManager = _lyncClient.ConversationManager;
// Conversation Events
_conversationManager.ConversationAdded += new EventHandler<ConversationManagerEventArgs> (Conversations_ConversationAdded);
void Conversations_ConversationAdded(object sender,
ConversationManagerEventArgs e)
{ … }

15. Contextual Conversations
Launch Link Context
Launch applications from Lync conversations
Conversation contains a “launch link”
Startup parameters are embedded in the context
User clicks launch link to open application
Application processes startup parameters
Application can receive additional context

16. Contextual Conversations
Extensibility Window Context
Host Silverlight applications in Lync conversation window
Scenarios
Call center agent dashboard
Conversation translator
Can run multiple extensibility applications
Can be combined with Launch Link context

17. Contextual Conversations
UI Suppression
Hide the Lync client UI
Build your own custom communication client
Developer is responsible for handling everything

18. Agenda Overview Lync Client SDK Application Sharing Content Sharing
What’s New in the Lync Client SDK

19. Application Sharing

20. Application Sharing and Collaboration
What’s New
APIs to support missing modalities from Lync 2010
New Sharing namespace in Microsoft.Lync.Model.Conversation
Development experience
Select applications to share
Start/stop sharing
Take/grant control

21. Lync Managed API – Application Sharing
// Acquire the user’s sharing modality
_localModality = (ApplicationSharingModality)
_conversation.Modalities[ModalityTypes.ApplicationSharing];
// Acquire the remote participant’s sharing modality
foreach (Participant p in _conversation.Participants) {
if (!p.IsSelf)
_remoteModality = (ApplicationSharingModality)
p.Modalities[ModalityTypes.ApplicationSharing];
break; }

22. Lync Managed API – Sharing
// Access shareable resources
_localModality.ShareableResources
// Share a resource
if (_localModality.CanInvoke(ModalityAction.Connect)) {
_localModality.BeginShareResources(new List<SharingResource>() { resource }, (ar) =>
try
_localModality.EndShareResources(ar); } …

23. Application Sharing and Collaboration

24. Agenda Overview Lync Client SDK Application Sharing Content Sharing
What’s New in the Lync Client SDK

25. Content Sharing

26. Content Sharing What’s New Development experience
APIs to support content sharing modalities for PowerPoint presentations, native files, and whiteboard.
New Sharing namespace in Microsoft.Lync.Model.Conversation
Development experience
Connect to Content Sharing modality
Create shareable content
Add to content bin
Interact with shareable content
Interact with Content sharing modality

27. Connect to the Content Sharing Modality
Check if you can connect to the Content Sharing modality
Connect to the modality
if (((Modality)_conversation.Modalities[ModalityTypes.ContentSharing]) .CanInvoke(ModalityAction.Connect))
((Modality)_conversation.Modalities[ModalityTypes.ContentSharing])
.BeginConnect((ar) => {
.EndConnect(ar);
}, null);

28. Creating Shareable Content
The ShareableContentType enum defines types of content that can be shared with users in a conversation:
PowerPoint
NativeFile
Whiteboard
Content Sharing modality exposes methods to create shareable content:
BeginCreateContent
BeginCreateContentFromFile

29. Create PowerPoint Shareable Content
Check if action is available
Create shareable content
if (((ContentSharingModality)_conversation.Modalities
[ModalityTypes.ContentSharing])
.CanInvoke(ModalityAction.CreateShareablePowerPointContent))
conversationSharingModality.BeginCreateContentFromFile(
ShareableContentType.PowerPoint, 
contentTile, 
powerPointDeckName, 
false, // include native file
callback, 
conversationSharingModality);

30. Content Bin Content is automatically added to “Content Bin”
Iterate through content
Take action on content
ActiveContent represents content currently being shared
foreach (ShareableContent content in 
((ContentSharingModality)_conversation.Modalities
[ModalityTypes.ContentSharing]).ContentCollection) {
// take action on shareable content }

31. Take Action on Content in the Content Bin
Invoke a ShareableContentAction
Remove
Present
StopPresenting
SyncWithPresenter
DownloadFile
TakeOverAsPresenter
SaveAnnotation
ClearAllAnnotations
Add

32. Interact with Content
PowerPoint shareable content type exposes methods to interact with deck:
GoForward
GoBackwards
SyncWithPresenter
IsInSyncWithPresenter
Users can make annotations to shareable content
ClearAllAnnotations
SaveAnnotation

33. Interact with the Content Sharing Modality
Share control of shareable content

Accept
Decline
Grant control
Take back control

34. Agenda Overview Lync Client SDK Application Sharing Content Sharing
