EncodeToString Method

Encodes to string.

Syntax

[VB.NET]
Public Sub EncodeToString()

[C#]
public void EncodeToString();

Remarks

This method encodes to string. Same as EncodeToFile but the encoded data is held in the Message property rather than saved to a file.

This method encodes the data given in Parts collection into a MIME message. The Message gets stored in Message and MessageHeaders using the values optionally given in Parts collection . To encode several objects into a MIME envelope, the user should first clear any old values left in the Parts collection by calling ResetData.

The component will check each item in Parts collection (first decoded file and then decoded string) for the data to encode.

The encoded message will be stored in the Message property; the message headers will be held by MessageHeaders.

Example (Encoding Data)

MIMEControl.ResetData()
MIMEControl.Parts.Add(new MIMEPart())
MIMEControl.Parts.Add(new MIMEPart())

MIMEControl.Parts[0].DecodedString = "This is plain text data"
MIMEControl.Parts[0].Encoding = peQuotedPrintable
MIMEControl.Parts[0].ContentType = "text/plain"
MIMEControl.Parts[1].DecodedFile = "C:\filename.txt"

MIMEControl.EncodeToString()

NOTE: This method has a corresponding asynchronous version (EncodeToStringAsync) for use in the WinRT environment.
