Thanks for your advice.
Console program does not have message pump by default. I built a simple
function to peek messages in the following way:
void __fastcall PumpMessages()
{
MSG Msg;
unsigned short TimeTick = 0;
while(TimeTick < 50)
{
if(PeekMessage(&Msg, NULL, 0, 0, PM_REMOVE))
{
/* Dispatch the message. */
DispatchMessage(&Msg);
} /* End of PeekMessage while loop. */
else
{
/* if there is no message to process, */
/* then sleep for a while to avoid tight */
/* looping */
Sleep(100);
/* Increment time tick to allow quiting */
/* the loop anyway upon times out */
TimeTick++;
}
}
}
Not a good design but anyway the events can be triggered now when I call the
function.
Problem now is when I call SmtpCli->Data(), after the From, To, Subject,
Content-type stuff are posted the function relies on the SmtpClientGetData
event handler to post mail body line by line. In my case since the message
loop function can only be called after the SmtpCli->Data() returned, therefore
the MsgLine points to null when being referenced inside SmtpCli->Data(). Is
there any other way to set the mail body prior to calling Data()?
I also note in the SmtpProt.pas there is a derived class TSyncSmtpCli. Does
this class support blocked operations which are not message-based? Is there
any example in using this derivative?
Thanks and regards,
Patrick
