Chilkat_9_5_0.EmailBundle PHP ActiveX Reference Documentation

Chilkat_9_5_0.EmailBundle

Current Version: 9.5.0.97

Represents a collection of Email objects.

Object Creation

$obj = new COM("Chilkat_9_5_0.EmailBundle");

Properties

DebugLogFilePath
string DebugLogFilePath

If set to a file path, causes each Chilkat method or property call to automatically append it's LastErrorText to the specified log file. The information is appended such that if a hang or crash occurs, it is possible to see the context in which the problem occurred, as well as a history of all Chilkat calls up to the point of the problem. The VerboseLogging property can be set to provide more detailed information.

This property is typically used for debugging the rare cases where a Chilkat method call hangs or generates an exception that halts program execution (i.e. crashes). A hang or crash should generally never happen. The typical causes of a hang are:

  1. a timeout related property was set to 0 to explicitly indicate that an infinite timeout is desired,
  2. the hang is actually a hang within an event callback (i.e. it is a hang within the application code), or
  3. there is an internal problem (bug) in the Chilkat code that causes the hang.

top
LastBinaryResult
VARIANT LastBinaryResult (read-only)

The binary data returned by the last (binary data returning) method called. Only available if Chilkat.Global.KeepBinaryResult is set to true. This provides a means for obtaining large varbinary results in the SQL Server environment (where limitations exist in getting large amounts of data returned by method calls, but where temp tables can be used for binary properties).

top
LastErrorHtml
string LastErrorHtml (read-only)

Provides information in HTML format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.

top
LastErrorText
string LastErrorText (read-only)

Provides information in plain-text format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.

top
LastErrorXml
string LastErrorXml (read-only)

Provides information in XML format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.

top
LastMethodSuccess
bool LastMethodSuccess

Indicate whether the last method call succeeded or failed. A value of true indicates success, a value of false indicates failure. This property is automatically set for method calls. It is not modified by property accesses. The property is automatically set to indicate success for the following types of method calls:

  • Any method that returns a string.
  • Any method returning a Chilkat object, binary bytes, or a date/time.
  • Any method returning a standard boolean status value where success = true and failure = false.
  • Any method returning an integer where failure is defined by a return value less than zero.

Note: Methods that do not fit the above requirements will always set this property equal to true. For example, a method that returns no value (such as a "void" in C++) will technically always succeed.

top
LastStringResult
string LastStringResult (read-only)

The string return value of the last (string returning) method called. Only available if Chilkat.Global.KeepStringResult is set to true. This provides a means for obtaining large string results in the SQL Server environment (where limitations exist in getting long strings returned by method calls, but where temp tables can be used for string properties).

top
LastStringResultLen
int LastStringResultLen (read-only)

The length, in characters, of the string contained in the LastStringResult property.

top
MessageCount
int MessageCount (read-only)

The number of emails in this bundle.

top
VerboseLogging
bool VerboseLogging

If set to true, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is false. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.

top
Version
string Version (read-only)

Version of the component/library, such as "9.5.0.94"

Methods

AddEmail
bool AddEmail(Chilkat_9_5_0.Email email)

Adds an email object to the bundle.

Returns true for success, false for failure.

top
AddMimeBytes
bool AddMimeBytes(VARIANT mimeBytesOrText)

Adds an email to the bundle object. The mimeBytesOrText is the email in MIME format.

Returns true for success, false for failure.

top
FindByHeader
Chilkat_9_5_0.Email FindByHeader(string headerFieldName, string headerFieldValue)

Returns the first email having a header field matching the headerFieldName and headerFieldValue exactly (case sensitive). If no matching email is found, returns null.

Returns null on failure

top
GetEmail
Chilkat_9_5_0.Email GetEmail(int index)

Returns the Nth Email in the bundle. The email returned is a copy of the email in the bundle. Updating the email object returned by GetEmail has no effect on the email within the bundle. To update/replace the email in the bundle, your program should call GetEmail to get a copy, make modifications, call RemoveEmailByIndex to remove the email (passing the same index used in the call to GetEmail), and then call AddEmail to insert the new/modified email into the bundle.

IMPORTANT: This method does NOT communicate with any mail server to download the email. It simply returns the Nth email object that exists within it's in-memory collection of email objects.

Returns null on failure

top
GetUidls
Chilkat_9_5_0.StringArray GetUidls()

Returns a StringArray object containing UIDLs for all Email objects in the bundle. UIDLs are only valid for emails retrieved from POP3 servers. An email on a POP3 server has a "UIDL", an email on IMAP servers has a "UID". If the email was retrieved from an IMAP server, the UID will be accessible via the "ckx-imap-uid" header field.

Returns null on failure

top
GetXml
string GetXml()

Converts the email bundle to an XML document in memory. Returns the XML document as a string.

Returns null on failure

top
LoadTaskResult
bool LoadTaskResult(Chilkat_9_5_0.Task task)
Introduced in version 9.5.0.52

Loads the email bundle from a completed asynchronous task.

Returns true for success, false for failure.

top
LoadXml
bool LoadXml(string filename)

Loads an email bundle from an XML file.

Returns true for success, false for failure.

top
LoadXmlString
bool LoadXmlString(string xmlStr)

Loads an email bundle from an XML string.

Returns true for success, false for failure.

top
RemoveEmail
bool RemoveEmail(Chilkat_9_5_0.Email email)

Removes an email from the bundle. This does not remove the email from the mail server.

Returns true for success, false for failure.

top
RemoveEmailByIndex
bool RemoveEmailByIndex(int index)

Removes the Nth email in a bundle. (Indexing begins at 0.)

Returns true for success, false for failure.

top
SaveXml
bool SaveXml(string filename)

Converts each email to XML and persists the bundle to an XML file. The email bundle can later be re-instantiated by calling MailMan.LoadXmlFile

Returns true for success, false for failure.

top
SortByDate
void SortByDate(bool ascending)

Sorts emails in the bundle by date.

top
SortByRecipient
void SortByRecipient(bool ascending)

Sorts emails in the bundle by recipient.

top
SortBySender
void SortBySender(bool ascending)

Sorts emails in the bundle by sender.

top
SortBySubject
void SortBySubject(bool ascending)

Sorts emails in the bundle by subject.
