Perl

Transition from Imap.Sort to Imap.QueryMbx

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated Sort method calls with QueryMbx. Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

$imap = chilkat::CkImap->new();

# ...
# ...

$searchCriteria = 'FROM bob@example.com';
$bUid = 1;
$sortCriteria = "DATE SUBJECT";

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The Sort method is deprecated:

# msgSetObj is a MessageSet
$msgSetObj = $imap->Sort($sortCriteria,"UTF-8",$searchCriteria,$bUid);
if ($imap->get_LastMethodSuccess() == 0) {
    print $imap->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# ...
# ...

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Do the equivalent using QueryMbx.
# Your application creates a new, empty MessageSet object which is passed 
# in the last argument and filled upon success.

# The following properties are used instead of function arguments.
$imap->put_SortCriteria("DATE SUBJECT");
$imap->put_SearchCharset("UTF-8");

$mset = chilkat::CkMessageSet->new();
$success = $imap->QueryMbx($searchCriteria,$bUid,$mset);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $imap->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}
