Code Example

The following code example shows how to use IMAPIProp::GetProps, which IMessage inherits from IMAPIProp.

Note

To make the following code example easier to read, security checking and error handling are not included. This code example should not be used in a release configuration unless it is modified to include them.

HRESULT GetPropsExample(IMessage * pMsg) 
{
    HRESULT           hr = E_FAIL;
    SPropValue * rgprops = NULL;
    ULONG       rgTags[] = {3, PR_SENDER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, PR_SUBJECT, PR_IMPORTANCE};
    ULONG         cCount = 0;

    // Get the message's properties.
    hr = pMsg->GetProps((LPSPropTagArray) rgTags, MAPI_UNICODE, &cCount, &rgprops);

    // Access the properties.
    if (SUCCEEDED(hr)) 
    {        
        // Check that the ulPropTag member of each property value is of the property type requested, and that it does not have a value of PT_ERROR.
        if (rgprops[0].ulPropTag == PR_SENDER_EMAIL_ADDRESS) 
            DEBUGMSG(TRUE, (L"From: %s \r\n", rgprops[0].Value.lpszW));

        if (rgprops[1].ulPropTag == PR_SUBJECT) 
            DEBUGMSG(TRUE, (L"Subject: %s \r\n", rgprops[1].Value.lpszW));

        if (rgprops[2].ulPropTag == PR_IMPORTANCE) 
            DEBUGMSG(TRUE, (L"Importance: %d \r\n", rgprops[2].Value.ul));
        
        // Free the returned SPropValue structure.
        MAPIFreeBuffer(rgprops);
    }

    return hr;
}
