Mailboxes

Current Version: 10.0.0

Represents a collection of IMAP mailboxes.

Object Creation

set myMailboxes [new CkMailboxes]

Properties

Count
integer
set intVal [CkMailboxes_get_Count $myMailboxes]

The number of mailboxes in the collection.

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

LastMethodSuccess
boolean 1/0
set boolVal [CkMailboxes_get_LastMethodSuccess $myMailboxes]
CkMailboxes_put_LastMethodSuccess $myMailboxes $boolVal

Indicate whether the last method call succeeded or failed. A value of 1 indicates success, a value of 0 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 = 1 and failure = 0.
  • 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 1. For example, a method that returns no value (such as a "void" in C++) will technically always succeed.

Utf8
boolean 1/0
set boolVal [CkMailboxes_get_Utf8 $myMailboxes]
CkMailboxes_put_Utf8 $myMailboxes $boolVal

When set to 1, all "const char *" arguments are interpreted as utf-8 strings. If set to 0 (the default), then "const char *" arguments are interpreted as ANSI strings. Also, when set to 1, and Chilkat method returning a "const char *" is returning the utf-8 representation. If set to 0, all "const char *" return values are ANSI strings.

Methods

GetFlags
# index is an integer
# outStr is a CkString (output)
set status [CkMailboxes_GetFlags $index $outStr]
set retStr [CkMailboxes_getFlags $myMailboxes $index]

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

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

top
GetMailboxIndex
# mbxName is a string
set retInt [CkMailboxes_GetMailboxIndex $mbxName]

Returns the index of the mailbox having the specified name.

top
GetName
# index is an integer
# outStrName is a CkString (output)
set status [CkMailboxes_GetName $index $outStr]
set retStr [CkMailboxes_getName $myMailboxes $index]

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

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

top
GetNthFlag
# index is an integer
# flagIndex is an integer
# outStr is a CkString (output)
set status [CkMailboxes_GetNthFlag $index $flagIndex $outStr]
set retStr [CkMailboxes_getNthFlag $myMailboxes $index $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 1 for success, 0 for failure.

top
GetNumFlags
# index is an integer
set retInt [CkMailboxes_GetNumFlags $index]

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

top
HasFlag
# index is an integer
# flagName is a string
set retBool [CkMailboxes_HasFlag $index $flagName]

Returns 1 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.

More Information and Examples
top
HasInferiors
# index is an integer
set retBool [CkMailboxes_HasInferiors $index]

Returns 1 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.

top
IsMarked
# index is an integer
set retBool [CkMailboxes_IsMarked $index]

Returns 1 if the Nth mailbox is marked.

top
IsSelectable
# index is an integer
set retBool [CkMailboxes_IsSelectable $index]

Returns 1 if the Nth mailbox is selectable.

top
LoadTaskResult
# task is a CkTask
set status [CkMailboxes_LoadTaskResult $task]
Introduced in version 9.5.0.52
