Perl Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

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;
}
