Chilkat Ruby Downloads install from rubygems.org gem install chilkat or download... Ruby Library for Windows, MacOS, Linux, Alpine Linux

require 'chilkat'

email = Chilkat::CkEmail.new()

# ...
# ...

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The Clone method is deprecated:

# emailObj is a CkEmail
emailObj = email.Clone()
if (email.get_LastMethodSuccess() == false)
    print email.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# ...
# ...

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

emailOut = Chilkat::CkEmail.new()
success = email.MakeCopy(emailOut)
if (success == false)
    print email.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
