Authenticates to the Message Feed server. Each client submitting messages to the Message Feed server must authenticate itself with a name and a password.
int mfp_Authenticate(h_mfp hMFP, int RequestId, char const* pUser, char const* pPassword);
hMFP – The handle to the Message Feed connection.RequestId – Identifies this request. It is returned in the reply received by the mfp_GetReply function in order to correlate a reply with its request.pUser – User name for the Message Feed client.pPassword – Password for the specified user. The function returns 0 if the request was successfully sent to the Message Feed server, or -1 in case of error. Use the mfp_GetLastError function to get a textual description of the error.|
