Get a Header Field by Name

See more Email Object Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat Email.GetHeaderField method, which returns the value of a header field by name. Header-field names are case-insensitive, so X-Priority and x-priority refer to the same field. This example reads several headers by name.

// Important: Don't forget to include the call to System.loadLibrary
// as shown at the bottom of this code sample.

public class SimpleActivity extends Activity {

  private static final String TAG = "Chilkat";

  // Called when the activity is first created.
  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    CkEmail email = new CkEmail();

    email.put_From("alice@example.com");
    email.AddHeaderField("X-Priority","1");

    //  Get header field values by name.
    Log.i(TAG, "Subject = " + email.getHeaderField("Subject"));
    Log.i(TAG, "From = " + email.getHeaderField("From"));
    Log.i(TAG, "X-Priority = " + email.getHeaderField("x-priority"));

      // Note: If the incorrect library name is passed to System.loadLibrary,
      // then you will see the following error message at application startup:
