Create MIME Containing Plain-Text

See more MIME Examples

Calls SetBodyFromPlainText to load plain-text into the MIME body. Also sets the Content-Type header to "text/plain", and the Content-Transfer-Encoding to an appropriate transfer encoding based on the characters found in the text. Java

import com.chilkatsoft.*;

public class ChilkatExample {

  static {
    try {
        System.loadLibrary("chilkat");
    } catch (UnsatisfiedLinkError e) {
      System.err.println("Native code library failed to load.\n" + e);
      System.exit(1);
    }
  }

  public static void main(String argv[])
  {
    boolean success = false;

    // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    CkMime mime = new CkMime();

    // Add a few header fields:
    success = mime.AddHeaderField("Description","this is a test");
    success = mime.AddHeaderField("MyId","123");

    String textBody = "This is the plain-text body";

    success = mime.SetBodyFromPlainText(textBody);

    System.out.println(mime.getMime());

    // The MIME should look like this:

    // Description: this is a test
    // MyId: 123
    // Content-Type: text/plain; 
    // Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
    // 
    // This is the plain-text body

    // Note: The Content-Transfer-Encoding may be changed.
    // For example, to use "base64", do this:
    mime.put_Encoding("base64");

    // Show the MIME again, this time using the base64 
    // transfer encoding:
    System.out.println(mime.getMime());

    // It should look like this:

    // Description: this is a test
    // MyId: 123
    // Content-Type: text/plain
    // Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
    //
