EncodeToStream Method

Encodes to stream.

Syntax

[VB.NET]
Public Sub EncodeToStream(ByVal OutputStream As System.IO.Stream)

[C#]
public void EncodeToStream(System.IO.Stream outputStream);

Remarks

This method encodes to stream. Same as EncodeToString but the encoded data is written to a stream instead of to the Message property.

This method encodes the data given in Parts collection into a MIME message. The Message gets written to the specified OutputStream 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 written to the specified OutputStream, and 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.EncodeToStream(OutputStream)

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