Copies or moves all properties, except for specifically excluded properties.

HRESULT CopyTo(
 ULONG ciidExclude,
 LPCIID rgiidExclude,
 LPSPropTagArray lpExcludeProps,
 ULONG_PTR ulUIParam,
 LPMAPIPROGRESS lpProgress,
 LPCIID lpInterface,
 LPVOID lpDestObj,
 ULONG ulFlags,
 LPSPropProblemArray FAR * lppProblems
);

Parameters

  • ciidExclude
    [in] The count of interfaces to exclude when properties are copied or moved.

  • rgiidExclude
    [in] An array of interface identifiers (IIDs) that specify interfaces that should not be used when supplemental information is copied or moved to the destination object.

  • lpExcludeProps
    [in] A pointer to a property tag array that identifies the property tags that should be excluded from the copy or move operation. Passing NULL in the lpExcludeProps parameter indicates that all of the object's properties should be copied or moved. CopyTo returns MAPI_E_INVALID_PARAMETER when the cValues member of the SPropProblemArray structure pointed to by lpExcludeProps is set to 0.

  • ulUIParam
    [in] A handle to the parent window of the progress indicator.

  • lpProgress
    [in] A pointer to a progress indicator implementation. If NULL is passed in the lpProgress parameter, MAPI provides the progress implementation. The lpProgress parameter is ignored unless the MAPI_DIALOG flag is set in the ulFlags parameter.

  • lpInterface
    [in] A pointer to the interface identifier (IID) that represents the interface to be used to access the object pointed to by the lpDestObj parameter. The lpInterface parameter must not be NULL.

  • lpDestObj
    [in] A pointer to the object to receive the copied or moved properties.

  • ulFlags
    [in] A bitmask of flags that controls the copy or move operation. The following flags can be set:

    • MAPI_DECLINE_OK
      If CopyTo calls the IMAPISupport::DoCopyTo method to handle the copy or move operation, it should instead return immediately with the error value MAPI_E_DECLINE_COPY. The MAPI_DECLINE_OK flag is set by MAPI to limit recursion. Clients do not set this flag.

    • MAPI_DIALOG
      Displays a progress indicator.

    • MAPI_MOVE
      CopyTo should perform a move operation instead of a copy operation. When this flag is not set, CopyTo performs a copy operation.

    • MAPI_NOREPLACE
      Existing properties in the destination object should not be overwritten. When this flag is not set, CopyTo overwrites existing properties.

  • lppProblems
    [in, out] On input, a pointer to a pointer to an SPropProblemArray structure; otherwise, NULL, indicating no need for error information. If lppProblems is a valid pointer on input, CopyTo returns detailed information about errors in copying one or more properties.

Return Value

  • S_OK
    The properties have been successfully copied or moved.

  • MAPI_E_COLLISION
    A subobject cannot be copied because a subobject with the same display name — specified by the PR_DISPLAY_NAME (PidTagDisplayName) property — already exists in the destination object.

  • MAPI_E_DECLINE_COPY
    The service provider does not implement the copy operation.

  • MAPI_E_FOLDER_CYCLE
    The source object performing the copy or move operation directly or indirectly contains the destination object. Significant work might have been performed before this condition was discovered, so the source and destination objects might be partially modified.

  • MAPI_E_INTERFACE_NOT_SUPPORTED
    The interface identified by the lpInterface parameter is not supported by the destination object.

  • MAPI_E_NO_ACCESS
    An attempt was made to access an object for which the caller has insufficient permissions. This error is returned if the destination object is the same as the source object.

The following values can be returned in the SPropProblemArray structure, but not as return values for CopyTo. The following errors apply to a single property:

  • MAPI_E_BAD_CHARWIDTH
    Either the MAPI_UNICODE flag was set and CopyTo does not support Unicode, or MAPI_UNICODE was not set and CopyTo supports only Unicode.

  • MAPI_E_COMPUTED
    The property cannot be modified by the caller because it is a read-only property, computed by the owner of the destination object. This error is not severe; the caller should allow the copy operation to continue.

  • MAPI_E_INVALID_TYPE
    The property type is invalid.

  • MAPI_E_UNEXPECTED_TYPE
    The property type is not the type expected by the caller.

Remarks

By default, the IMAPIProp::CopyTo method copies or moves all of the current object's properties to a destination object. CopyTo is used when an object should be copied or moved exactly, with all or most of its properties intact.

Any subobjects in the source object are automatically included in the operation and are copied or moved in their entirety. By default, CopyTo overwrites any properties in the destination object that match properties from the source object. If any of the copied or moved properties already exist in the destination object, the existing properties are overwritten by the new properties, unless the MAPI_NOREPLACE flag is set in the ulFlags parameter. Existing information in the destination object that is not overwritten is left untouched.

Notes to Implementers

You can provide a full implementation of CopyTo or rely on the implementation that MAPI provides in its support object. If you want to use the MAPI implementation, call IMAPISupport::DoCopyTo. However, if you do delegate processing to DoCopyTo and you are passed the MAPI_DECLINE_OK flag, avoid the support call and return MAPI_E_DECLINE_COPY instead. MAPI will call with this flag to avoid the possible recursion that can happen when folders are copied.

Because the copy operation can be lengthy, you should display a progress indicator. Use the IMAPIProgress implementation passed in the lpProgress parameter, if there is one. If lpProgress is NULL, call the IMAPISupport::DoProgressDialog method to use the MAPI implementation.

Do not attempt to set any known read-only properties in the destination object; return MAPI_E_NO_ACCESS instead.

The source and destination objects should use the same interfaces. Return MAPI_E_INVALID_PARAMETER if lpInterface is not set.

Return MAPI_E_INTERFACE_NOT_SUPPORTED if all known interfaces are excluded.

Notes to Callers

Do not set the MAPI_DECLINE_OK flag; MAPI uses it in its calls to message store provider CopyTo implementations.

Because copy and move operations can take time, you should request the display of a progress indicator by setting the MAPI_DIALOG flag. You can set the lpProgress parameter to your implementation of IMAPIProgress, if you have one, or to NULL. If lpProgress is NULL, CopyTo will use the default progress indicator that MAPI provides.

You can suppress the display of a progress indicator by not setting the MAPI_DIALOG flag. CopyTo will ignore the ulUIParam and lpProgress parameters and will not display the indicator.

CopyTo can report global and individual errors, or errors that occur with one or more properties. These individual errors are placed in an SPropProblemArray structure. You can suppress error reporting at the property level by passing NULL, instead of a valid pointer, for the property problem array structure parameter.

If you want to receive information about errors, pass a valid SPropProblemArray structure pointer in the lppProblems parameter. When CopyTo returns S_OK, check for possible errors with individual properties in the structure. When CopyTo returns an error, no information is returned in the SPropProblemArray structure. Instead, call IMAPIProp::GetLastError to retrieve detailed error information.

If CopyTo returns S_OK, free the returned SPropProblemArray structure by calling the MAPIFreeBuffer function.

If you copy properties that are unique to the source object type, you must ensure that the destination object is of the same type. CopyTo does not prevent you from associating properties that typically belong to one type of object with another type of object. It is up to you to copy properties that make sense for the destination object. For example, you should not copy message properties to an address book container.

To ensure that you copy between objects of the same type, check that the source and destination object are the same type, either by comparing object pointers or calling IUnknown::QueryInterface. Set the interface identifier pointed to by lpInterface to the standard interface for the source object. Also, be sure that the object type or PR_OBJECT_TYPE (PidTagObjectType) property is the same for the two objects. For example, if you copy from a message, set lpInterface to IID_IMessage and the PR_OBJECT_TYPE for both objects to MAPI_MESSAGE.

If an invalid pointer is passed in the lpDestObj parameter, the results are unpredictable.

Excluding properties on a CopyTo call can be useful. For example, some objects have properties that are specific to a single instance of the object, such as the date and time of message delivery. To avoid copying a message's delivery time when you copy the message to a different folder, specify PR_MESSAGE_DELIVERY_TIME (PidTagMessageDeliveryTime) in the property tag exclude array. To exclude a message's recipient list, add the PR_MESSAGE_RECIPIENTS (PidTagMessageRecipients) property to the exclude array. To exclude a message's attachments, add the PR_MESSAGE_ATTACHMENTS (PidTagMessageAttachments) property to the array.

Similarly, prevent the copying or moving of a folder or address book container's hierarchy or contents table by including PR_CONTAINER_HIERARCHY (PidTagContainerHierarchy) or PR_CONTAINER_CONTENTS (PidTagContainerContents) in the property tag exclude array.

To exclude properties from the copy or move operation, include their property tags in the lpExcludeProps parameter. If you pass the results of the PROP_TAG macro to build a property tag from a specific identifier in the property tag array, all properties with that identifier will be excluded. For example, the following entry in the property tag array causes all properties with an identifier of 0x8002 to be excluded, regardless of type:

PROP_TAG(PT_LONG, 0x8002)

The PR_NULL (PidTagNull) property tag cannot be included in the lpExcludeProps array.

The usefulness of the CopyTo feature for excluding interfaces is perhaps not as obvious as the usefulness of excluding properties. You can exclude an interface when you copy to an object that has no knowledge of a group of properties. For example, if you copy properties from a folder to an attachment, the only properties that the attachment can work with are the generic properties available with any IMAPIProp implementation. By excluding IMAPIFolder from the copy operation, the attachment will not receive any of the more specific folder properties.

When you use the rgiidExclude parameter to exclude an interface, it also excludes all interfaces derived from that interface. For example, excluding IMAPIContainer causes folders or address book containers to be excluded, depending on the type of provider. Do not exclude IMAPIProp or IUnknown because so many interfaces derive from them.

Ignore MAPI_E_COMPUTED errors returned in the SPropProblemArray structure in the lppProblems parameter.
