(This is just for completeness).
What I ended up doing was basically copy the process from JDBCMailRepository
store/retrieve methods, except putting the data in an output stream instead
of a prepared statement.
ObjectOutputStream oos = new ...
oos.writeObject(mail.getName());
oos.writeObject(mail.getState());
oos.writeObject(mail.getErrorMessage());
oos.writeObject(mail.getSender());
StringBuffer recipients = new StringBuffer();
for (Iterator i = mail.getRecipients().iterator(); i.hasNext();
) {
recipients.append(i.next().toString());
if (i.hasNext()) {
recipients.append("\r\n");
}
}
oos.writeObject(recipients.toString());
oos.writeObject(mail.getRemoteHost());
oos.writeObject(mail.getRemoteAddr());
oos.writeObject(mail.getLastUpdated());
MimeMessageUtil.writeTo(mail.getMessage(), oos, oos);
oos.close()
When deserializing I do the exact opposite, with this magic at the end,
copied from JDBCMailRepository.retrieve():
MimeMessageInputStreamSource source = new
MimeMessageInputStreamSource("temp", ois);
MimeMessageCopyOnWriteProxy message = new
MimeMessageCopyOnWriteProxy(source);
mail.setMessage(message);
I'm not 100% clear on what exactly goes on with the proxy business, but it
seems to work.
Thanks for replying.
