ListGroups Method
Lists all groups on the server.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) int ListGroups(); Unicode (Windows) INT ListGroups();
- (void)listGroups;
#define MID_NNTP_LISTGROUPS 12 IPWORKS_EXTERNAL int IPWORKS_CALL IPWorks_NNTP_Do(void *lpObj, int methid, int cparam, void *param[], int cbparam[], int64 *lpllVal);
Remarks
This method asks the server to list all its newsgroups. Use this method with caution as listing groups may take quite a long over slow links. The group names and other information are returned via the GroupList event.
If a connection to the NewsServer doesn't already exist, a new one is created.
Error Handling (C++)
This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
