Access FromAgentName in Friendship Offer

[shyrana]

I would like to extend the auto friendship offer example in the Demo plugin in a way that it sends a thank you IM to the sender. How can I get access to the FromAgentName?

       void Notification_OnNotificationDisplayed(object sender, NotificationEventArgs e) {
           // Example: auto accept friendship offers after 2 seconds of "thinking" ;)
           if (e.Type == NotificationType.FriendshipOffer) {
               Thread.Sleep(2000);
               // Execute on GUI thread
               Instance.MainForm.BeginInvoke(
                   new MethodInvoker(() => {e.Buttons[0].PerformClick(); })
               );

               // Here I would like to get the FromAgentName
               // How can this be done?

           }
       }

I'm not interested in implementation details regarding the IM to be sent. I'm only interested in how I can get the FromAgentName inside the Notification_OnNotificationDisplayed method.

Note: I'm not totally new to C# but havent written any code the last 4 years.

That bit deals with the GUI of the notification. Better place to do what you wanted would be to do it in the IM handler. There are a couple of lines that read


// We need to filter out all sorts of things that come in as a instante message
if (e.IM.Dialog == InstantMessageDialog.MessageFromAgent // Message is not notice, inv. offer, etc etc


You can insert immediately before that:


if (e.IM.Dialog == InstantMessageDialog.FriendshipOffered)
{
   // e.IM.FromAgentID and e.IM.FromAgentName availabe here
   return;
}
