sigh,
here's a couple more questions that i expect nobody has the answer to:
1. Programmatic reconciliation
Easy this one! - (how) is it possible to programmatically invoke email reconciliation - like happens when the end-user chooses the Reconcile Now menu item from the BB Messages app.
2. Identifying a synched folder from MAPI using a universal ID provided by the BB device.
My BB app is trying (very hard) to tell my desktop app (which uses extended MAPI) how to find a specific reconcilled email that exists on both the BB device and the desktop mail client (Outlook).
Now i do have this working, if i don't mind scouring all the messages for the PR_RIM_MSG_REF_ID that BES kindly provides. Thats good. -Only, I was really hoping to go one step further and be able to tell the desktop app which folder to look in..
I know i can use the folder name but i was hoping that i might be able to use some kind of a folderID.
The following RIM API gives me a 64-bit integer on the BB device but I can't see that its of any use from inside the MAPI (or am i wrong about that !?):
Folder oFolder=oMessage.getFolder();
long lFolderID=oFolder.getId();
I also see that the RIM Folder object contains a private net.rim.device.apps.internal.blackberryemail.folder.EmailFolder field which is declared as _emailFolder -And this object in turn contains a private int field declared as _folderId
..Which interestingly happens to hold the very same value as the one i get if i ALT + v i e w an email....
Is there any way of getting hold of this through the RIM 4.2 API ?
Is it any use for my purposes?
Is there some far more cunning way?
Any help gets a heap of thx and my undying admiration, forever.
