GetDecodedContentStream Method

Topic Last Modified: 2006-06-13

Returns the Microsoft® ActiveX® Data Objects (ADO) Stream object containing the body part content in decoded format.

Applies To

IBodyPart Interface

Type Library

Microsoft CDO for Exchange 2000 Library

DLL Implemented In

CDOEX.DLL

Syntax

Function GetDecodedContentStream() As ADODB.Stream
HRESULT GetDecodedContentStream
(
        _Stream** pVal
);

Parameters

  • pVal
    Returned reference to a _Stream object.

Return Value

Returns S_OK if successful, or an error value otherwise.

Remarks

CDO uses the current value of the ContentTransferEncoding property and the MIMEFormatted property to determine which encoding mechanism to use to decode or encode the contents of the implementing object. It is the programmer's responsibility to have the appropriate value set in ContentTransferEncoding.

The Stream object returned contains a read/write copy of the current (decoded) contents of the object implementing IBodyPart. If you modify the contents within the returned Stream object, you must call the Flush method to commit the changes back into the object.

The GetDecodedContentStream method returns an error if called on an object that has Content-Type set to "multipart".

To obtain the encoded content, use the GetEncodedContentStream Method.

Example


Dim iMsg As New CDO.Message
Dim iBp As CDO.IBodyPart
Set iBp = iMsg.BodyPart.AddBodyPart
Dim Strm As ADODB.Stream
Set Strm = iBp.GetDecodedContentStream
Strm.WriteText "This is some text for the body part"
Strm.Flush

' Add more body parts, etc.
'...
iMsg.Send

Strm.Close
Set Strm = Nothing
