MessageSet PureBasic Reference Documentation

MessageSet

Current Version: 11.0.0

Represents a collection of email message sequence numbers or UIDs on an IMAP server.

Object Creation

obj.i = CkMessageSet::ckCreate()

; Make sure to dispose of the object when finished like this:
CkMessageSet::ckDispose(obj);

Properties

Count
Declare.i ckCount(obj.i) ; (read-only)

The number of message UIDs (or sequence numbers) in this message set.

top
DebugLogFilePath
Declare.s ckDebugLogFilePath(obj.i)
Declare setCkDebugLogFilePath(obj.i, value.s)

If set to a file path, this property logs the LastErrorText of each Chilkat method or property call to the specified file. This logging helps identify the context and history of Chilkat calls leading up to any crash or hang, aiding in debugging.

Enabling the VerboseLogging property provides more detailed information. This property is mainly used for debugging rare instances where a Chilkat method call causes a hang or crash, which should generally not happen.

Possible causes of hangs include:

  • A timeout property set to 0, indicating an infinite timeout.
  • A hang occurring within an event callback in the application code.
  • An internal bug in the Chilkat code causing the hang.

More Information and Examples
top
HasUids
Declare.i ckHasUids(obj.i)
Declare setCkHasUids(obj.i, value.i)

If 1 then the message set contains UIDs, otherwise it contains sequence numbers.

top
LastErrorHtml
Declare.s ckLastErrorHtml(obj.i) ; (read-only)

Provides HTML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

top
LastErrorText
Declare.s ckLastErrorText(obj.i) ; (read-only)

Provides plain text information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

top
LastErrorXml
Declare.s ckLastErrorXml(obj.i) ; (read-only)

Provides XML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

top
LastMethodSuccess
Declare.i ckLastMethodSuccess(obj.i)
Declare setCkLastMethodSuccess(obj.i, value.i)

Indicates the success or failure of the most recent method call: 1 means success, 0 means failure. This property remains unchanged by property setters or getters. This method is present to address challenges in checking for null or Nothing returns in certain programming languages.

top
VerboseLogging
Declare.i ckVerboseLogging(obj.i)
Declare setCkVerboseLogging(obj.i, value.i)

If set to 1, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is 0. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.

top
Version
Declare.s ckVersion(obj.i) ; (read-only)

Version of the component/library, such as "10.1.0"

Methods

ContainsId
Declare.i ckContainsId(obj.i, msgId.l)

Returns 1 if the msgId is contained in the message set.

top
FromCompactString
Declare.i ckFromCompactString(obj.i, str.s)

Loads the message set from a compact-string representation. Here are some examples:

Non-Compact String

Compact String

1,2,3,4,5

1:5

1,2,3,4,5,8,9,10

1:5,8:10

1,3,4,5,8,9,10

1,3:5,8:10

top
GetId
Declare.i ckGetId(obj.i, index.l)

Returns the message ID of the Nth message in the set. (indexing begins at 0). Returns 0xFFFFFFFF if the index is out of range.

top
InsertId
Declare ckInsertId(obj.i, id.l)

Inserts a message ID into the set. If the ID already exists, a duplicate is not inserted.

top
LoadTaskResult
Declare.i ckLoadTaskResult(obj.i, task.i)
Introduced in version 9.5.0.52

Loads the message set from a completed asynchronous task.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

top
RemoveId
Declare ckRemoveId(obj.i, id.l)

Removes a message ID from the set.

top
ToCommaSeparatedStr
Declare.s ckToCommaSeparatedStr(obj.i)

Returns a string of comma-separated message IDs. (This is the non-compact string format.)

Returns an empty string on failure. Use the LastMethodSuccess property to check for success.

top
ToCompactString
Declare.s ckToCompactString(obj.i)

Returns the set of message IDs represented as a compact string. Here are some examples:

Non-Compact String

Compact String

1,2,3,4,5

1:5

1,2,3,4,5,8,9,10

1:5,8:10

1,3,4,5,8,9,10

1,3:5,8:10

Returns an empty string on failure. Use the LastMethodSuccess property to check for success.
