Mailboxes Perl Reference Documentation

CkMailboxes

Current Version: 11.0.0

Represents a collection of IMAP mailboxes.

Object Creation

$obj = chilkat::CkMailboxes->new();

Properties

Count
# $intVal is an integer
$intVal = $mailboxes->get_Count();

The number of mailboxes in the collection.

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

DebugLogFilePath
# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$mailboxes->get_DebugLogFilePath($ckStr);
$strVal = $mailboxes->debugLogFilePath();
$mailboxes->put_DebugLogFilePath($strVal);

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
LastErrorHtml
# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$mailboxes->get_LastErrorHtml($ckStr);
$strVal = $mailboxes->lastErrorHtml();

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
# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$mailboxes->get_LastErrorText($ckStr);
$strVal = $mailboxes->lastErrorText();

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
# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$mailboxes->get_LastErrorXml($ckStr);
$strVal = $mailboxes->lastErrorXml();

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
# $boolVal is a boolean
$boolVal = $mailboxes->get_LastMethodSuccess();
$mailboxes->put_LastMethodSuccess($boolVal);

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
# $boolVal is a boolean
$boolVal = $mailboxes->get_VerboseLogging();
$mailboxes->put_VerboseLogging($boolVal);

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.

Version
# $strVal is a string
# $ckStr is a CkString
$mailboxes->get_Version($ckStr);
$strVal = $mailboxes->version();

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

Methods

GetFlags
# $index is an integer
# $outStr is a CkString (output)
$status = $mailboxes->GetFlags($index, $outStr);
$retStr = $mailboxes->getFlags($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
$retInt = $mailboxes->GetMailboxIndex($mbxName);

Returns the index of the mailbox having the specified name.

top
GetName
# $index is an integer
# $outStrName is a CkString (output)
$status = $mailboxes->GetName($index, $outStr);
$retStr = $mailboxes->getName($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)
$status = $mailboxes->GetNthFlag($index, $flagIndex, $outStr);
$retStr = $mailboxes->getNthFlag($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
$retInt = $mailboxes->GetNumFlags($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
$retBool = $mailboxes->HasFlag($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.

top
HasInferiors
# $index is an integer
$retBool = $mailboxes->HasInferiors($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
$retBool = $mailboxes->IsMarked($index);

Returns 1 if the Nth mailbox is marked.

top
IsSelectable
# $index is an integer
$retBool = $mailboxes->IsSelectable($index);

Returns 1 if the Nth mailbox is selectable.

top
LoadTaskResult
# $task is a CkTask
$status = $mailboxes->LoadTaskResult($task);
Introduced in version 9.5.0.52

Loads the mailboxes object from a completed asynchronous task.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.
