Syntax

function Config(ConfigurationString: String): String;

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every component. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the component.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

Syntax

procedure Open();

Remarks

When this method is called, the component will attempt to open the archive specified in PackagePath and extract package properties, content types and parse the master relationships file in the archive.

ParsePart Method (OfficeDoc Component)

Parses the specified part as XML.

Syntax

procedure ParsePart();

Remarks

If the part specified by PartName exists, the corresponding physical file will be extracted from the archive and parsed as XML. If BuildDOM is enabled, the DOM will be built internally and you can use XPath to query the resulting document, using the XPath property. If BuildDOM is disabled, only the XML parser-related events will be fired.

ReadRelationships Method (OfficeDoc Component)

Reads the relationships file in the archive associated with the specified part.

Syntax

If there's no content type mapped for the part or for the extension, an empty string is returned.

BeginFile Event (OfficeDoc Component)

Fired before each file is processed.

Syntax

type TBeginFileEvent = procedure (
  Sender: TObject;
  Index: Integer;

Filename contains the full name of the file, specified with its pathname.

Overwrite specifies whether or not the file will be overwritten. For Zip, Jar, and Tar, this is equal by default to the value of the OverwriteFiles property. For Gzip, this value defaults to true.

Either of the parameters may be changed when the event is fired. Changing the value of Overwrite will override the default behavior of the component, and cause the file to be overwritten or not overwritten, depending on the value set. If Filename is changed, the value of Overwrite will be ignored, and the file will be written with the specified name. If a file of the new name also exists this file will be silently overwritten.

Remarks

The Progress event is automatically fired as compression or decompression is performed. When WriteToProgressEvent is true, the output data is provided through the Data parameter, allowing for it to be streamed out.

Filename contains the name of the file being written. If no file is being written, Filename will contain an empty string, and the output data will be provided exclusively through this event.

BytesProcessed contains the total number of uncompressed bytes processed. PercentProcessed contains the percent of uncompressed bytes processed, corresponding roughly to the running time of the operation.

For Gzip extraction only, BytesProcessed and PercentProcessed will reflect the number of compressed bytes extracted, as it is generally impossible to predetermine the total uncompressed size.

If WriteToProgressEvent is false, Data will contain null.

SpecialSection Event (OfficeDoc Component)

Config Settings (OfficeDoc Component)

The component accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

OfficeDoc Config Settings

NormalizePartName:   Whether to normalize Part Names.

Sometimes the Part Names retrieved from a document will be of a format that is not directly usable in the PartName property when retrieving the part. For example: /ppt/slides/../media/image1.jpeg

When this option is set to True the component will automatically normalize these Part Names so that they can be directly used in the PartName property for retrieving the part. For example, the above would become: /ppt/media/image1.jpeg

The default is True.

RelationshipIsExternal[x]:   Whether the relationship part is internal or external.

Some relationships in an Office document may be external items, such as URLs and files on disk. These relationships are not directly accessible via ExtractPart. This configuration option will return "1" if the relationship at index "x" of the Relationship* arrays is an external part. Otherwise it will return "0"

Base Config Settings

BuildInfo:   Information about the product's build.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

CodePage:   The system code page used for Unicode to Multibyte translations.

The default code page is Unicode UTF-8 (65001).

LicenseInfo:   Information about the current license.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a component is using. It will return the following information:

  • Product: The product the license is for.
  • Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
  • License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
  • License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
  • Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.
MaskSensitive:   Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.

In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to True to mask sensitive data. The default is True.

This setting only works on these components: AS3Receiver, AS3Sender, Atom, Client(3DS), FTP, FTPServer, IMAP, OFTPClient, SSHClient, SCP, Server(3DS), Sexec, SFTP, SFTPServer, SSHServer, TCPClient, TCPServer.

UseInternalSecurityAPI:   Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation.

When set to False, the component will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to True tells the component to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

This setting is set to False by default on all platforms.

Trappable Errors (OfficeDoc Component)

Errors

The following errors may be generated by the component. Note that frequently the error message will contain more specific information than what is listed here.
