Append Part to MIME

See more MIME Examples

Demonstrates the AppendPart method for adding sub-parts to MIME. Chilkat2 Java

import com.chilkatsoft.chilkat2.Mime;

public class ChilkatExample {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
        // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

        // Create a text/plain part.
        Mime ptMime = new Mime();
        ptMime.setBodyFromPlainText("This is the plain text body");
        System.out.println(ptMime.getMime());
        System.out.println("****");

        // The ptMime contains:
        // ---------------------------------------
        //     Content-Type: text/plain
        //     Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
        //
        //     This is the plain text body
        // ---------------------------------------

        // Start with an empty MIME object...
        Mime topLevelMime = new Mime();

        // Initialize it to a multipart Content-Type.  We'll use multipart/mixed.
        topLevelMime.newMultipartMixed();

        // Append the ptMime as a child.
        topLevelMime.appendPart(ptMime);
        System.out.println(topLevelMime.getMime());
        System.out.println("****");

        // The topLevelMime contains:
        // --------------------------
        //     Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="------------010907090104040508040404"
        //
        //     --------------010907090104040508040404
        //     Content-Type: text/plain
        //     Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
        //
        //     This is the plain text body
        //     --------------010907090104040508040404--
        //

        // IMPORTANT: A copy of the MIME passed in AppendPart is appended.
        // Therefore, in this case, changing ptMime does not change the text/plain sub-part in topLevelMime.
        // For example:
        ptMime.setBody("this is the new plain text body.");
        // topLevelMime is unchanged.
        System.out.println(topLevelMime.getMime());
        System.out.println("****");

        // To change the content in topLevelMime, we must get the text/plain part.
        // For example:

        Mime ptMime2 = new Mime();
        topLevelMime.partAt(0, ptMime2);

        ptMime2.setBody("this is the new plain text body.");
        // Now topLevelMime is changed.
        System.out.println(topLevelMime.getMime());
    }
