  • Spanish translation for msgview

    Thanks to Igor Martinez

    Now we have the translated strings for Spanish language for Viewer for MS Outlook Messages and Viewer for TNEF-files (winmail.dat)

  • ShareIt Control Panel

    Сегодня ShareIt в очереной раз обновил свою контрольную панель. Из того положительного, что видно сразу же – в списке неоплаченных заказаов видна причина.

    Например, для WireTransfer – “Payment request sent to customer”. А вот для одного поляка сейчас светится “Payment not possible”. Наверное его банк отклонил транзакцию по карте

  • .mht files

    Today I modified the parser for .eml-messages (TSMEMLFile component) and now .mht-files (MHTML Documents) parsed correctly too.

    So I created the new TSMMHTFile component in SMMsg suite and updated our viewer for emails

  • to get the current directory

    String s = Directory.GetCurrentDirectory()

    For Compact .NET:
    String s = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase);

  • to read the IMEI in Compact .NET

    //Import cellcore.dll

[DllImport("cellcore.dll")]
 internal static extern int lineGetGeneralInfo(IntPtr hLine, byte[] bCache);

// code to get IMEI
private void getIMEIInfo()
{
string IMEI;
Tapi t = new Tapi();
t.Initialize();
Line _line = t.CreateLine(0, LINEMEDIAMODE.INTERACTIVEVOICE, LINECALLPRIVILEGE.MONITOR);

byte[] buffer = new byte[512];
//write size
BitConverter.GetBytes(512).CopyTo(buffer, 0);

if (lineGetGeneralInfo(_line.hLine, buffer) != 0)
{
throw new System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception(System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.GetLastWin32Error(), "TAPI Error: " + System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.GetLastWin32Error().ToString("X"));
}

int serialsize = BitConverter.ToInt32(buffer, 36);
int serialoffset = BitConverter.ToInt32(buffer, 40);
IMEI = System.Text.Encoding.Unicode.GetString(buffer, serialoffset, serialsize);
IMEI = IMEI.Substring(0, IMEI.IndexOf(Convert.ToChar(0)));

AppSettings.SetIMEI(IMEI);
_line.Dispose();
t.Shutdown();
}

  • PR_RTF_COMPRESSED

    In previous versions for our SMMsg and MsgView I used the MAPI32.dll to decompress the RTF BODY (PR_RTF_COMPRESSED tag). But this library installed only if MS Outlook installed on computer and defined as default mailer in MS Windows.

    As you understand, if customer have the installed MS Outlook, then he/she do not need our MsgView:-)
    So in my TODO list I had the important task- to implement the native decoding/decompressing for such PR_RTF_COMPRESSED tags.

    Today I implemented this task!
    Shortly: the body compressed by LZFU algoritm which described at

    http://www.freeutils.net/source/jtnef/rtfcompressed.jsp

    But for .msg-files you do not need add any ‘}}’ in end of decoded string because value stored with these ending characters. maybe for TNEF-streams we need add these chars (I didn’t test now)

  • progress bar

    Cool online service to generate the animated progress bar for long processes. Something like “please wait…”:
