I'm trying to change the CHat Topic using the ActiveS wrapper, but always get error 503:

CHAT: Invalid or unknown action

I'm trying this:

Chat chat = [get a chat from somewhere];
chat.Topic = "some topic or other";

Has anybody been able to do this? Can you show me some code?

Or should I just switch immediately to Skype4COM?

(and I know this isn't the best place for this, but there doesn't seem to be much activity over at ActiveS site...)

Thanks,
Andrew

Hi, TesterBoy

In ActiveS, Chat.Topic is read-only property so it seems you can't change the topic directly, you should do it by using AccessClass.SendCommand(cmd) or AccessClass.SendBlockingCommand(cmd) where cmd is a string like this:
alter chat <chat_id> settopic <topic>

I have tested it and it works, try it by urself.

Yes - I saw that in the docs, but the metadata showed that there's a get{} implemented anyway, so I assumed the docs were wrong



I have, and you're right - it works.

Thanks for the help!
