Auto reply SMS messages

Learn how to use a C# or Visual Basic .NET script with Diafaan SMS Server to send an automatic reply to a received SMS message. This simple script sends a reply message every time an SMS message is received.

 

Script

The only adaptation to the skeleton script is in the OnMessageReceived event:

 

C# script:

 

private void OnMessageReceived(string fromAddress, string toAddress, 

                               string message, string messageType,
                               string messageId, string smsc, string pdu, 

                               string gateway, DateTime sendTime, 

                               DateTime receiveTime)
{
  PostSendMessage(fromAddress, "", "We have received your message.", 

                  "sms.text", "", "", "");
}

 

Visual Basic .NET script:

 

Private Sub OnMessageReceived(fromAddress As String, toAddress As String, _

                              message As String, messageType As String, _

                              messageId As String, smsc As String, _
                              pdu As String, gateway As String, _

                              sendTime As DateTime, receiveTime As DateTime)
  PostSendMessage(fromAddress, "", "We have received your message.", _

                  "sms.text", "", "", "")
End Sub

 

 

If you want to be sure the message is sent with the same (GSM Modem) gateway that received the message, add the gateway name to the PostSendMessage method:

 

C# script:

 
private void OnMessageReceived(string fromAddress, string toAddress, 

                               string message, string messageType,
                               string messageId, string smsc, string pdu, 

                               string gateway, DateTime sendTime, 

                               DateTime receiveTime)
{
  PostSendMessage(fromAddress, "", "We have received your message.", 

                  "sms.text", gateway, "", "");
}

 

Visual Basic .NET script:

 
Private Sub OnMessageReceived(fromAddress As String, toAddress As String, _

                              message As String, messageType As String, _

                              messageId As String, smsc As String, _
                              pdu As String, gateway As String, _

                              sendTime As DateTime, receiveTime As DateTime)
  PostSendMessage(fromAddress, "", "We have received your message.", _

                  "sms.text", gateway, "", "")
End Sub
