<?php

include("chilkat.php");
// Use "chilkat_9_5_0.php" for versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0

$imap = new CkImap();

// ...
// ...

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

// ------------------------------------------------------------------------
// The Sort method is deprecated:

// msgSetObj is a CkMessageSet
$msgSetObj = $imap->Sort($sortCriteria,'utf-8',$searchCriteria,$bUid);
if ($imap->get_LastMethodSuccess() == false) {
    print $imap->lastErrorText() . "\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');

$success = $imap->QueryMbx($searchCriteria,$bUid,$mset);
