Provides instructions for replacing deprecated Sort method calls with QueryMbx. Xojo Plugin

Dim success As Boolean

Dim imap As New Chilkat.Imap

// ...

Dim searchCriteria As String
searchCriteria = "FROM bob@example.com"
Dim bUid As Boolean
bUid = True
Dim sortCriteria As String
sortCriteria = "DATE SUBJECT"

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

Dim msgSetObj As Chilkat.MessageSet
msgSetObj = imap.Sort(sortCriteria,"UTF-8",searchCriteria,bUid)
If (imap.LastMethodSuccess = False) Then
    System.DebugLog(imap.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

// ...
// ...

// ------------------------------------------------------------------------
// 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.SortCriteria = "DATE SUBJECT"
imap.SearchCharset = "UTF-8"

Dim mset As New Chilkat.MessageSet
