I haven't looked into the SapiMapi subproject too much, but it looks like it is basically intended for similar purposes.



SapiMapi is a testing utility put together to analyse Mapi objects and properties in memory. I couldn't use OutSpy because it relied on Outlook properly loading the Mapi plugin before it can do anything. That's a problem if the plugin has not got to that point yet. I haven't seen any open-source Mapi inspectors yet.

I also needed something that can do scripted testcases
and something that can easily be installed by users.
For example, we can ask someone to install SapiMapi then
run some stock data retrivial scripts for diagnosis.

I big issue is displaying objects for inspection during
debugging.  If, say, a table you are returning to
MAPI is crashing Outlook, then you need to inspect
that table to see if any data is off or missing.
Since most Mapi browsing programs work *through* Mapi,
that is hard to do.  Sapimapi has a client-side library
routines that serialize the Mapi properties and tables
in XML and sends them via a shared memory segment.
