Create MIME Containing Plain-Text

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. B4X

Dim success As Boolean = False

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

Dim mime As ChilkatMime
mime.Initialize

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

Dim textBody As String = "This is the plain-text body"

success = mime.SetBodyFromPlainText(textBody)

Log(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.Encoding = "base64"

'  Show the MIME again, this time using the base64 
'  transfer encoding:
Log(mime.GetMime)

'  It should look like this:

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