Hello there,

Ok. I am reading messages and processing them successfully. I have a problem whereby not all the data in a message comes into the mail box. I am dealing happily with folders and messages, but am not sure how to go from messages to bodyparts so I can use bp.hasMore(), and then Transport.more(bp, true) to retrieve the rest of it.

My application uses email to send data to the bbery which is being stored and used throughout the application.

I create an instance of the inbox folder, open a messages array with folder.getMessages(); and then use the methods of the message.

Essentially I go from :

net.rim.blackberry.api.mail.Message[] msgs = folder.getMessages();

to looping through the messagesto determine if msgs[i] is meant for the application (as opposed to being a regular email).

My question is this, how can I go from msgs[i] to creating a bodypart that I can use Transport.more for to retrieve the full message?

Thanks in advance!

Hi folks,

If anybody could explain this to me I'd very much appreciate it!

Hi Folks,

Ok, I figure I've asked the question the wrong way...

I need to read a message and then use the Transport.more method to make sure I get all of it (all the messages the app is interested in will require "more"...).

At the moment I'm using net.rim.blackberry.api.mail.Message[] msgs = folder.getMessages(); to get the emails into an array which I check through and when I find a message I'm "interested" in I read it and parse it.

Instead of a message object though I'd like to have a part message so I can get more before parsing it in my app.

Please, anybody make sense of this?

Thanks in advance...

Hello seekay,

I think I was facing the same problem.

I have registered a FolderListener to the store, to process New Messages, but long mails have been incomplete. Using hasMore() and Transport.more() is the way to go. Here a complete Example how to receive the complete Content of a message

PHP Code:


public class Listener implements FolderListener, MessageListener {

    private Store store;

    public Listener() {
        
        try {
            Session session = Session.waitForDefaultSession();
            store = session.getStore();
            store.addFolderListener(this);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // TODO: Errorhandling
        }
    }

    public void destroyInboxListener() {
        if (store != null) {
            store.removeFolderListener(this);
        }
    }

    private void processEvent(Message message) {
        Object content = message.getContent();
        if (content instanceof BodyPart) {
            BodyPart bodyPart = (BodyPart) content;
            if (bodyPart.hasMore()) {
                // message has more parts, wait for them

                if (!bodyPart.moreRequestSent()) {
                    // no request for other parts yet

                    // add listener to this message
                    message.addMessageListener(this);
                    
                    // request other parts
                    try {
                        Transport.more(bodyPart, true);
                    } catch (Exception e) {
                    }
                }
            } else {
                // message complete, remove listener
                message.removeMessageListener(this);
                
                String complete Content = message.getBodyText();

                //process content here

                //delete the message
                try {
                    Folder folder = message.getFolder();
                    folder.deleteMessage(message);
                } catch (Exception e) {
                    // TODO: Errorhandling
                }
            }
        }
    }

    public void messagesAdded(FolderEvent event) {
        processEvent(event.getMessage());
    }

    public void changed(MessageEvent event) {
        processEvent(event.getMessage());
    }

    public void messagesRemoved(FolderEvent arg0) {
        // nothing todo
    }
} 


Hope this is what you were looking for.

Thanks a million for replying Matoz, I actually managed to figure it out while In was away on holiday hence why I didn't post the update!

I actually just did a BodyPart msgbp = (BodyPart)msg.getContent(); and took it from there. Simple when you know how, unfortunately I seem to be made to run before I ought to be walking with Java!!!

Many thanks again!

Hi Matoz,

I still have a little problem with this. I'm able to check to see if there's more to the message, and I'm able to get the rest of the message. However when I do A msg.getBodyText(); I still have the original 'short version'.

Just a bit of background. Before I perform the 'hasmore' test I am setting the subject and BodyText of the msg object to variables as I need to test to make sure this message is one of the specially formatted messages I'm 'interested' in.

I have tried creating a new folder and message, but still I'm only getting the same part of the message.

Going into the email application after my application shows that the rest of the message did download, but I don't seem to be able to read it from the application. Is there any way to 'refresh' an object that has already been created, the message object is supposed to be a reference to the actual objec so I thought by downloading the rest of the message I should simply be able to issue getBodyText() and reset my string variable, but its just not working.

Any ideas?

This has been driving me round the bend for days!!!!!!!

Thanks in advance...

I'm going to keep posting here in case I write something that makes sense to someone!!!!

I have at this stage tried everything :

1. Recreating the whole path from the folder downwards (in steps) after retrieving the rest of the message in an effort to 'refresh' the message object.

2. I have hardcoded my test of the message's contents so I didn't have to call getBodyText() until I had retrieved the rest of the message.

3. I've used a bunch of new variables and objects and set them equal to various (from the original msg.getBodyText() to a completely seperate (TextBodyPart) set equal to (String)updbp.getContents().

... and nothing works.

I'm posting the code I have here :

PHP Code:

System.out.println("Inside MailCheck Method   @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@");     
          try{
                // R & D
                 // Returns a reference to the service book from the factory.
                _servicebook = ServiceBook.getSB();

                // Returns an array of all registered service records.
                _sRecordsArray = _servicebook.getRecords(); 

                // Loops through the service record array
                // and obtains specific information relating
                // to each item and prints it to the debugging output.

                // R & D 
                 _service  =Session.waitForDefaultSession().getStore();

                 Store store =(Store)_service;

                    Addressxxx91;xxx93; recipients = msg.getRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO);
                    Date sent = msg.getSentDate();

                        String strPrefix;
                        //String mail = "SNXXS~";
                        if(mail.indexOf("SNXXS")>=0){
                            strPrefix = mail.substring(mail.indexOf("SNXXS"),mail.indexOf("SNXXS")+5);

                        else{
                            strPrefix ="";

                        System.out.println("strprefix:" + strPrefix);

                            //System.out.println("deleted data!");
                            //get MORE
                            //Object msgo = msg.getContent();
                            BodyPart msgbp = (BodyPart)msg.getContent();
                            if (msgbp.hasMore()){
                                System.out.println("Msg has more - fetching...");
                                net.rim.blackberry.api.mail.Transport.more((BodyPart)msgbp, true);
                                System.out.println("Updating body text container...");
                                //net.rim.blackberry.api.mail.Folder updfolder = store.getFolder("Inbox");
                                //net.rim.blackberry.api.mail.Messagexxx91;xxx93; updmsgs = updfolder.getMessages();
                                //net.rim.blackberry.api.mail.Message updmsg = new Message();
                                //updmsg = msgsxxx91;ixxx93;;
                                String complete_mail = msg.getBodyText();
                                mail = null;
                                //mail = updmsg.getBodyText() ;
                                mail = complete_mail;
                                System.out.println("Mail body now : "+mail);
                            } 


Now what happens is this. I'm looking for an email with a specific subject (INFO_SYNC_x) where 'x' is the device id the email was intended for and then I check the beginning of the contents for a specific string ("SNXXS" to make sure it is one I am 'interested' in. I KNOW the code above retrieves the rest of the message, because if I run this twice it skips the part where it needs to retrieve and works fine, but I want it to do it first time...

The string printed to the debug output after the "Mail body now..." is exactly the same as the first one i.e. the first part of the message contents before the rest of the message was retrieved.

Please, anybody, any ideas?
