CkMht C++ Class Reference (Visual C++)
CkMht
Chilkat MHT can generate email objects from HTML files and URLs, and convert HTML to MHT or EML files.
Properties
void get_BaseUrl(CkString &str);
void put_BaseUrl(const char *newVal);
When processing an HTML file or string (not a website URL), this defines the base URL to be used when converting relative HREFs to absolute HREFs.
long get_ConnectTimeout(void);
void put_ConnectTimeout(long numSeconds);
The amount of time in seconds to wait before timing out when connecting to an HTTP server. The default value is 10 seconds.
void get_DebugHtmlAfter(CkString &str);
void put_DebugHtmlAfter(const char *newVal);
A filename to save the result HTML when converting a URL, file, or HTML string. If problems are experienced, the before/after HTML can be analyzed to help determine the cause.
void get_DebugHtmlBefore(CkString &str);
void put_DebugHtmlBefore(const char *newVal);
A filename to save the input HTML when converting a URL, file, or HTML string. If problems are experienced, the before/after HTML can be analyzed to help determine the cause.
bool get_DebugTagCleaning(void);
void put_DebugTagCleaning(bool newVal);
When true causes the Mht class to be much more verbose in its logging. The default is false.
bool get_EmbedImages(void);
void put_EmbedImages(bool newVal);
Controls whether images are embedded in the MHT/EML, or whether the IMG SRC attributes are left as external URL references. If false, the IMG SRC tags are converted to absolute URLs (if necessary) and the images are not embedded within the MHT/EML.
bool get_EmbedLocalOnly(void);
void put_EmbedLocalOnly(bool newVal);
If true, only images found on the local filesystem (i.e. links to files) will be embedded within the MHT.
bool get_FetchFromCache(void);
void put_FetchFromCache(bool b);
If true, page parts such as images, style sheets, etc. will be fetched from the disk cache if possible. The disk cache root may be defined by calling AddCacheRoot. The default value is false.
long get_HeartbeatMs(void);
void put_HeartbeatMs(long newVal);
The time interval, in milliseconds, between AbortCheck event callbacks. The heartbeat/AbortCheck provides a means for an application to abort any MHT method before completion.
The default value is 0, which means that no AbortCheck events will be fired.
bool get_IgnoreMustRevalidate(void);
void put_IgnoreMustRevalidate(bool b);
Some HTTP responses contain a "Cache-Control: must-revalidate" header. If this is present, the server is requesting that the client always issue a revalidate HTTP request instead of serving the page directly from cache. If IgnoreMustRevalidate is set to true, then Chilkat MHT will serve the page directly from cache without revalidating until the page is no longer fresh. (assuming that FetchFromCache is set to true)
The default value of this property is false.
bool get_IgnoreNoCache(void);
void put_IgnoreNoCache(bool b);
Some HTTP responses contain headers of various types that indicate that the page should not be cached. Chilkat MHT will adhere to this unless this property is set to true.
The default value of this property is false.
void LastErrorHtml(CkString &str);
To be documented soon.Error information in HTML format for the last method called.
void LastErrorText(CkString &str);
Error information in plain-text format for the last method called.
void LastErrorXml(CkString &str);
Error information in XML format for the last method called.
bool get_NoScripts(void);
void put_NoScripts(bool newVal);
Only applies when creating MHT files. Scripts are always removed when creating EML or emails from HTML. If set to true, then all scripts are removed, if set to false (the default) then scripts are not removed.
bool get_NtlmAuth(void);
void put_NtlmAuth(bool newVal);
Setting this property to true causes the MHT component to use NTLM authentication (also known as IWA -- or Integrated Windows Authentication) when authentication with an HTTP server.
The default value of this property is false.
long get_NumCacheLevels(void);
void put_NumCacheLevels(long v);
The number of directory levels to be used under each cache root. The default is 0, meaning that each cached item is stored in a cache root directory. A value of 1 causes each cached page to be stored in one of 255 subdirectories named "0","1", "2", ..."255" under a cache root. A value of 2 causes two levels of subdirectories ("0..255/0..255") under each cache root. The MHT control automatically creates subdirectories as needed. The reason for mutliple levels is to alleviate problems that may arise when huge numbers of files are stored in a single directory. For example, Windows Explorer does not behave well when trying to display the contents of directories with thousands of files.
long get_NumCacheRoots(void);
The number of cache roots to be used for the disk cache. This allows the disk cache spread out over multiple disk drives. Each cache root is a string indicating the drive letter and directory path. For example, "E:\Cache". To create a cache with four roots, call AddCacheRoot once for each directory root.
bool get_PreferMHTScripts(void);
void put_PreferMHTScripts(bool newVal);
This property provides a means for the noscript option to be selected when possible. If PreferMHTScripts = false, then scripts with noscript alternatives are removed and the noscript content is kept. If true (the default), then scripts are preserved and the noscript options are discarded.
void get_Proxy(CkString &str);
void put_Proxy(const char *newVal);
(Optional) A proxy host:port if a proxy is necessary to access the Internet. The proxy string should be formatted as "hostname:port", such as "www.chilkatsoft.com:100".
void get_ProxyLogin(CkString &str);
void put_ProxyLogin(const char *newVal);
If an HTTP proxy is used and it requires authentication, this property specifies the HTTP proxy login.
void get_ProxyPassword(CkString &str);
void put_ProxyPassword(const char *newVal);
If an HTTP proxy is used and it requires authentication, this property specifies the HTTP proxy password.
long get_ReadTimeout(void);
void put_ReadTimeout(long numSeconds);
The amount of time in seconds to wait before timing out when reading from an HTTP server. The ReadTimeout is the amount of time that needs to elapse while no additional data is forthcoming. During a long data transfer, if the data stream halts for more than this amount, it will timeout. Otherwise, there is no limit on the length of time for the entire data transfer.
The default value is 20 seconds.
void get_SocksHostname(CkString &str);
void put_SocksHostname(const char *newVal);
The SOCKS4/SOCKS5 hostname or IPv4 address (in dotted decimal notation). This property is only used if the SocksVersion property is set to 4 or 5).
void get_SocksPassword(CkString &str);
void put_SocksPassword(const char *newVal);
The SOCKS5 password (if required). The SOCKS4 protocol does not include the use of a password, so this does not apply to SOCKS4.
int get_SocksPort(void);
void put_SocksPort(int newVal);
The SOCKS4/SOCKS5 proxy port. The default value is 1080.
This property only applies if a SOCKS proxy is used (if the SocksVersion property is set to 4 or 5).
void get_SocksUsername(CkString &str);
void put_SocksUsername(const char *newVal);
The SOCKS4/SOCKS5 proxy username. This property is only used if the SocksVersion property is set to 4 or 5).
int get_SocksVersion(void);
void put_SocksVersion(int newVal);
SocksVersion
May be set to one of the following integer values:
0 - No SOCKS proxy is used. This is the default.
4 - Connect via a SOCKS4 proxy.
5 - Connect via a SOCKS5 proxy.
bool get_UpdateCache(void);
void put_UpdateCache(bool b);
Controls whether the cache is automatically updated with the responses from HTTP GET requests. If true, the disk cache is updated, if false (the default), the cache is not updated.
bool get_UseCids(void);
void put_UseCids(bool newVal);
Controls whether CID URLs are used for embedded references when generating MHT or EML documents. If UseCids is false (the default), then URLs are left unchanged and the embedded items will contain "content-location" headers that match the URLs in the HTML. If true, CIDs are generated and the URLs within the HTML are replaced with "CID:" links.
bool get_UseFilename(void);
void put_UseFilename(bool newVal);
If true, a "filename" attribute is added to each Content-Disposition MIME header field for each embedded item (image, style sheet, etc.). If false, then no filename attribute is added.
The default value of this property is true.
bool get_UseIEProxy(void);
void put_UseIEProxy(bool newVal);
If true, the proxy host/port used by Internet Explorer will also be used by Chilkat MHT.
bool get_UseInline(void);
void put_UseInline(bool newVal);
If true, an "inline" attribute is added to each Content-Disposition MIME header field for each embedded item (image, style sheet, etc.). If false, then no inline attribute is added.
The default value of this property is true.
bool get_Utf8(void) const;
void put_Utf8(bool b);
When set to true, all "const char *" arguments are expected to be utf-8 strings. If set to false, the "const char *" arguments are expected to be ANSI strings.

void get_WebSitePassword(CkString &str);
void put_WebSitePassword(const char *newVal);
Optional) Specifies the password if a a Web page is accessed that requires a login and password
Methods
void AddCacheRoot(const char * dir);
If disk caching is used, this must be called once for each cache root. For example, if the cache is spread across D:\cacheRoot, E:\cacheRoot, and F:\cacheRoot, an application would setup the cache object by calling AddRoot three times -- once with "D:\cacheRoot", once with "E:\cacheRoot", and once with "F:\cacheRoot". Download Web Page to MHT with w/ Disk Cache
void AddCustomHeader(const char * name, const char * value);
Adds a custom HTTP header to all HTTP requests sent by the MHT component. To add multiple header fields, call this method once for each custom header.
void AddExternalStyleSheet(const char * url);
(This method rarely needs to be called.) Includes an additional style sheet that would not normally be included with the HTML. This method is provided for cases when style sheet names are constructed and dynamically included in Javascript such that MHT .NET cannot know beforehand what stylesheet to embed. MHT .NET by default downloads and embeds all stylesheets externally referenced by the HTML
void ClearCustomHeaders();
Removes all custom headers that may have accumulated from previous calls to AddCustomHeader.
void ExcludeImagesMatching(const char * pattern);
(This method rarely needs to be called.) Tells Chilkat MHT .NET to not embed any images whose URL matches a pattern. Sometimes images can be referenced within style sheets and not actually used when rendering the page. In cases like those, the image will appear as an attachment in the HTML email. This feature allows you to explicitly remove those images from the email so no attachments appear.
