public class MimeBodyPart
extends BodyPart
implements MimePart

This class represents a MIME body part. It implements the BodyPart abstract class and the MimePart interface. MimeBodyParts are contained in MimeMultipart objects.

MimeBodyPart uses the InternetHeaders class to parse and store the headers of that body part.


A note on RFC 822 and MIME headers

RFC 822 header fields must contain only US-ASCII characters. MIME allows non ASCII characters to be present in certain portions of certain headers, by encoding those characters. RFC 2047 specifies the rules for doing this. The MimeUtility class provided in this package can be used to to achieve this. Callers of the setHeader, addHeader, and addHeaderLine methods are responsible for enforcing the MIME requirements for the specified headers. In addition, these header fields must be folded (wrapped) before being sent if they exceed the line length limitation for the transport (1000 bytes for SMTP). Received headers may have been folded. The application is responsible for folding and unfolding headers as appropriate.

Field Detail

dh

protected javax.activation.DataHandler dh
The DataHandler object representing this Part's content.


content

protected byte[] content
Byte array that holds the bytes of the content of this Part.


contentStream

protected java.io.InputStream contentStream
If the data for this body part was supplied by an InputStream that implements the SharedInputStream interface, contentStream is another such stream representing the content of this body part. In this case, content will be null.

Since:
JavaMail 1.2

headers

protected InternetHeaders headers
The InternetHeaders object that stores all the headers of this body part.

Constructor Detail

MimeBodyPart

public MimeBodyPart()
An empty MimeBodyPart object is created. This body part maybe filled in by a client constructing a multipart message.


MimeBodyPart

public MimeBodyPart(java.io.InputStream is)
             throws MessagingException
Constructs a MimeBodyPart by reading and parsing the data from the specified input stream. The parser consumes data till the end of the given input stream. The input stream must start at the beginning of a valid MIME body part and must terminate at the end of that body part.

Note that the "boundary" string that delimits body parts must not be included in the input stream. The intention is that the MimeMultipart parser will extract each body part's bytes from a multipart stream and feed them into this constructor, without the delimiter strings.

Parameters:
is - the body part Input Stream
Throws:
MessagingException

MimeBodyPart

public MimeBodyPart(InternetHeaders headers,
                    byte[] content)
             throws MessagingException
Constructs a MimeBodyPart using the given header and content bytes.

Used by providers.

Parameters:

content - bytes representing the body of this part.
Throws:
MessagingException
Method Detail

getSize

public int getSize()
            throws MessagingException
Return the size of the content of this body part in bytes. Return -1 if the size cannot be determined.

Note that this number may not be an exact measure of the content size and may or may not account for any transfer encoding of the content.

This implementation returns the size of the content array (if not null), or, if contentStream is not null, and the available method returns a positive number, it returns that number as the size. Otherwise, it returns -1.

Specified by:
getSize in interface Part
Returns:
size in bytes, or -1 if not known
Throws:
MessagingException

getLineCount

public int getLineCount()
                 throws MessagingException

getDescription in interface Part
Returns:
content description
Throws:
MessagingException

setDescription

public void setDescription(java.lang.String description)
                    throws MessagingException
Set the "Content-Description" header field for this body part. If the description parameter is null, then any existing "Content-Description" fields are removed.

If the description contains non US-ASCII characters, it will be encoded using the platform's default charset. If the description contains only US-ASCII characters, no encoding is done and it is used as is.

Note that if the charset encoding process fails, a MessagingException is thrown, and an UnsupportedEncodingException is included in the chain of nested exceptions within the MessagingException.

Specified by:
setDescription in interface Part
Parameters:
description - content description
Throws:
IllegalWriteException - if the underlying implementation does not support modification
IllegalStateException - if this body part is obtained from a READ_ONLY folder.
MessagingException - otherwise; an UnsupportedEncodingException may be included in the exception chain if the charset conversion fails.

setDescription

public void setDescription(java.lang.String description,
                           java.lang.String charset)
                    throws MessagingException
Set the "Content-Description" header field for this body part. If the description parameter is null, then any existing "Content-Description" fields are removed.

If the description contains non US-ASCII characters, it will be encoded using the specified charset. If the description contains only US-ASCII characters, no encoding is done and it is used as is.

Note that if the charset encoding process fails, a MessagingException is thrown, and an UnsupportedEncodingException is included in the chain of nested exceptions within the MessagingException.

Parameters:
description - Description
charset - Charset for encoding
Throws:
IllegalWriteException - if the underlying implementation does not support modification
IllegalStateException - if this body part is obtained from a READ_ONLY folder.
MessagingException - otherwise; an UnsupportedEncodingException may be included in the exception chain if the charset conversion fails.

getFileName

public java.lang.String getFileName()
                             throws MessagingException
Get the filename associated with this body part.

Returns the value of the "filename" parameter from the "Content-Disposition" header field of this body part. If its not available, returns the value of the "name" parameter from the "Content-Type" header field of this body part. Returns null if both are absent.

If the mail.mime.decodefilename System property is set to true, the MimeUtility.decodeText method will be used to decode the filename. While such encoding is not supported by the MIME spec, many mailers use this technique to support non-ASCII characters in filenames. The default value of this property is false.

Specified by:
getFileName in interface Part
Returns:
filename
Throws:
MessagingException

setFileName

public void setFileName(java.lang.String filename)
                 throws MessagingException
Set the filename associated with this body part, if possible.

Sets the "filename" parameter of the "Content-Disposition" header field of this body part. For compatibility with older mailers, the "name" parameter of the "Content-Type" header is also set.

If the mail.mime.encodefilename System property is set to true, the MimeUtility.encodeText method will be used to encode the filename. While such encoding is not supported by the MIME spec, many mailers use this technique to support non-ASCII characters in filenames. The default value of this property is false.

Specified by:
setFileName in interface Part
Parameters:
filename - Filename to associate with this part
Throws:
IllegalWriteException - if the underlying implementation does not support modification
IllegalStateException - if this body part is obtained from a READ_ONLY folder.
MessagingException

getInputStream

public java.io.InputStream getInputStream()
                                   throws java.io.IOException,
                                          MessagingException
Return a decoded input stream for this body part's "content".

This implementation obtains the input stream from the DataHandler. That is, it invokes getDataHandler().getInputStream();

Specified by:
getInputStream in interface Part
Returns:
an InputStream
Throws:
MessagingException
java.io.IOException - this is typically thrown by the DataHandler. Refer to the documentation for javax.activation.DataHandler for more details.
See Also:
getContentStream(), DataHandler.getInputStream()

getContentStream

protected java.io.InputStream getContentStream()
                                        throws MessagingException
Produce the raw bytes of the content. This method is used when creating a DataHandler object for the content. Subclasses that can provide a separate input stream for just the Part content might want to override this method.

Throws:
MessagingException
See Also:
content, MimeMessage#getContentStream

getRawInputStream

public java.io.InputStream getRawInputStream()
                                      throws MessagingException
Return an InputStream to the raw data with any Content-Transfer-Encoding intact. This method is useful if the "Content-Transfer-Encoding" header is incorrect or corrupt, which would prevent the getInputStream method or getContent method from returning the correct data. In such a case the application may use this method and attempt to decode the raw data itself.

This implementation simply calls the getContentStream method.

Throws:
MessagingException
Since:
JavaMail 1.2
See Also:
getInputStream(), getContentStream()

getDataHandler

public javax.activation.DataHandler getDataHandler()
                                            throws MessagingException
Return a DataHandler for this body part's content.

The implementation provided here works just like the the implementation in MimeMessage.

Specified by:
getDataHandler in interface Part
Returns:
DataHandler for the content
Throws:
MessagingException
See Also:
MimeMessage#getDataHandler

getContent

public java.lang.Object getContent()
                            throws java.io.IOException,
                                   MessagingException
Return the content as a Java object. The type of the object returned is of course dependent on the content itself. For example, the native format of a text/plain content is usually a String object. The native format for a "multipart" content is always a Multipart subclass. For content types that are unknown to the DataHandler system, an input stream is returned as the content.

This implementation obtains the content from the DataHandler. That is, it invokes getDataHandler().getContent(); If the content is a Multipart or Message object and was created by parsing a stream, the object is cached and returned in subsequent calls so that modifications to the content will not be lost.

Specified by:
getContent in interface Part
Returns:
Object
Throws:
MessagingException
java.io.IOException - this is typically thrown by the DataHandler. Refer to the documentation for javax.activation.DataHandler for more details.
See Also:
DataHandler.getContent()

setDataHandler

public void setDataHandler(javax.activation.DataHandler dh)
                    throws MessagingException
This method provides the mechanism to set this body part's content. The given DataHandler object should wrap the actual content.

Specified by:
setDataHandler in interface Part
Parameters:
dh - The DataHandler for the content
Throws:
IllegalWriteException - if the underlying implementation does not support modification
IllegalStateException - if this body part is obtained from a READ_ONLY folder.
MessagingException

setContent

public void setContent(java.lang.Object o,
                       java.lang.String type)
                throws MessagingException
A convenience method for setting this body part's content.

The content is wrapped in a DataHandler object. Note that a DataContentHandler class for the specified type should be available to the JavaMail implementation for this to work right. That is, to do setContent(foobar, "application/x-foobar"), a DataContentHandler for "application/x-foobar" should be installed. Refer to the Java Activation Framework for more information.

Specified by:
setContent in interface Part
Parameters:
o - the content object
type - Mime type of the object
Throws:
IllegalWriteException - if the underlying implementation does not support modification of existing values
IllegalStateException - if this body part is obtained from a READ_ONLY folder.
MessagingException

setText

public void setText(java.lang.String text)
             throws MessagingException
Convenience method that sets the given String as this part's content, with a MIME type of "text/plain". If the string contains non US-ASCII characters, it will be encoded using the platform's default charset. The charset is also used to set the "charset" parameter.

Note that there may be a performance penalty if text is large, since this method may have to scan all the characters to determine what charset to use.

If the charset is already known, use the setText method that takes the charset parameter.

Specified by:
setText in interface MimePart
Specified by:
setText in interface Part
Parameters:
text - the text content to set
Throws:
MessagingException - if an error occurs
See Also:
setText(String text, String charset)

updateHeaders

protected void updateHeaders()
                      throws MessagingException
Examine the content of this body part and update the appropriate MIME headers. Typical headers that get set here are Content-Type and Content-Transfer-Encoding. Headers might need to be updated in two cases:
- A message being crafted by a mail application will certainly need to activate this method at some point to fill up its internal headers.
- A message read in from a Store will have obtained all its headers from the store, and so doesn't need this. However, if this message is editable and if any edits have been made to either the content or message structure, we might need to resync our headers.
In both cases this method is typically called by the Message.saveChanges method.

Throws:
MessagingException
