CkMailboxes C++ Reference Documentation

CkMailboxes

Current Version: 10.1.0
Requires Chilkat Bundle License

Represents a collection of IMAP mailboxes.

Object Creation

// Local variable on the stack
CkMailboxes obj;

// Dynamically allocate/delete
CkMailboxes *pObj = new CkMailboxes();
// ...
delete pObj;

Properties

Count
int get_Count(void);

The number of mailboxes in the collection.

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

top
LastMethodSuccess
bool get_LastMethodSuccess(void);
void put_LastMethodSuccess(bool newVal);

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
Utf8
bool get_Utf8(void);
void put_Utf8(bool newVal);

When set to true, all "const char *" arguments are interpreted as utf-8 strings. If set to false (the default), then "const char *" arguments are interpreted as ANSI strings. Also, when set to true, and Chilkat method returning a "const char *" is returning the utf-8 representation. If set to false, all "const char *" return values are ANSI strings.

Methods

GetFlags
bool GetFlags(int index, CkString &outStr);
const char *getFlags(int index);

Returns a comma-separated list of flags for the Nth mailbox. For example, "\HasNoChildren,\Important".

Returns true for success, false for failure.

top
GetMailboxIndex
int GetMailboxIndex(const char *mbxName);

Returns the index of the mailbox having the specified name.

top
GetName
bool GetName(int index, CkString &outStrName);
const char *getName(int index);

The name of the Nth mailbox in this collection. Indexing begins at 0.

Returns true for success, false for failure.

top
GetNthFlag
bool GetNthFlag(int index, int flagIndex, CkString &outStr);
const char *getNthFlag(int index, int flagIndex);

Returns the name of the Nth flag for the Mth mailbox. The index is the index of the mailbox. The flagIndex is the index of the flag.

Returns true for success, false for failure.

top
GetNumFlags
int GetNumFlags(int index);

Returns the number of flags for the Nth mailbox. Returns -1 if the index is out of range.

top
HasFlag
bool HasFlag(int index, const char *flagName);

Returns true if the Nth mailbox has the specified flag set. The flag name is case insensitive and should begin with a backslash character, such as "\Flagged". The index is the index of the Nth mailbox.

top
HasInferiors
bool HasInferiors(int index);

Returns true 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.

More Information and Examples

top
IsMarked
bool IsMarked(int index);

Returns true if the Nth mailbox is marked.

top
IsSelectable
bool IsSelectable(int index);

Returns true if the Nth mailbox is selectable.

top
LoadTaskResult
bool LoadTaskResult(CkTask &task);
Introduced in version 9.5.0.52

Loads the mailboxes object from a completed asynchronous task.

Returns true for success, false for failure.
