Current Version: 10.0.0
Requires Chilkat Bundle License

Represents a collection of IMAP mailboxes.

Object Creation

CkoMailboxes *obj = [[CkoMailboxes alloc] init];

Properties

Count
@property (nonatomic, readonly, copy) NSNumber *Count;

The number of mailboxes in the collection.

Note: The Mailboxes class is for use with the Chilkat IMAP component.

top
LastMethodSuccess
@property (nonatomic) BOOL LastMethodSuccess;

Indicate whether the last method call succeeded or failed. A value of YES indicates success, a value of NO 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 = YES and failure = NO.
  • 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 YES. For example, a method that returns no value (such as a "void" in C++) will technically always succeed.

HasInferiors
- (BOOL)HasInferiors:(NSNumber *)index;

Returns YES if the Nth mailbox has inferiors (i.e. sub-mailboxes), or if it is possible to create child mailboxes in the future.

Note: the HasNoChildren attribute/flag should not be confused with the IMAP4 [RFC-2060] defined attribute Noinferiors which indicates that no child mailboxes exist now AND none can be created in the future.
