mail::account::folderFromString — Restore a folder object
#include <libmail/mail.H>
mail::account *account;
mail::folder *folder;
std::string savedFolder=folder->toString();
...
mail::folder *f=account->folderFromString( |
std::string savedFolder); |
savedFolder is a
folder object that was previously saved as a string. The
mail::account::folderFromString
method recreates the original folder object. That is, the
returned mail::folder object
refers to the same mail folder as the original mail::folder object.
Folders may only be recreated by mail::account objects that reference the same mail account referenced by the original mail::folder object.
This function returns a NULL pointer if it cannot allocate memory for the new mail::folder object.
mail::folders are linked to their corresponding mail::accounts. A mail::folder created by one mail::account may not be used with a different mail::folder. All mail::folders created by a mail::account are invalidated when this mail::account object is destroyed. Note that the mail::folder objects are not automatically destroyed; the application is still responsible for destroying any remaining mail::folders, after their a mail::account is destroyed.
