Export a mail as PST file using EWS API

Hi,
I need to export the Exchange mails to PST file without installing the outlook. To acheive this i am choosing the EWS API. but i dont know how to do that. So, now i have a two questions, the first one, is it possible to create the pst file using EWS API?.
If yes, how to create a pst file using EWS, if any one posted the sample code here, it is very helpful for me.
Thanks,
RamMohan

EWS is not going to help you do what your trying to do, EWS is an Exchange API so you need to have an Exchange 2007 server or greater with the MailStore mounted to even use it to access the Mailbox . EWS also doesn't support exporting email to a PST because
the PST file is an Office file format so in the case where you do manage to mount the database on Exchange then use Adam's suggestion or just connect via Outlook and export the Mailbox.
>> I am parsing the mails from the exchange EDB files
With what ? reading the contents of an EDB file directly is not supported although there are a few third party apps that can do it and if your using one of those apps then all of them I've seen support the export to PST (unless your using a Trial licence).
The correct method of recovering data from an EDB file would be to use a Recovery Database
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd876954(v=exchg.150).aspx even if you don't have access to the environment you should be able to setup a temp environment using Virtual machines and recover it that way.

Exported and later Imported .pst files retain the permissions from the original Mailbox.

After migrating from Exchange 2003 to 2010 something strange happens when exporting folders to a .pst file and importing them in another mailbox.
The acces right that are applied, are those from the original mailbox.
I have been searching on the internet about this strange behaviour, but it seems our organization is the only one where is applies.
Does anybody have any ideas what can be the cause?

Hi,
For example, userA was granted permissions to the Inbox folder of userB's mailbox. You exported userB's Inbox folder to PST file and then imported to userC's mailbox. After that, userA had permissions for Inbox folder in userC's mailbox as well. This is
what you had encountered, is it right?
Generally, permissions aren't preserved when you export folders to PST file, only the content itself is exported. I recommend you remove this mailbox folder permission using the Remove-MailboxFolderPermission command to check the result.

Export batch data into CSV file using SQL SP

Hi,
I have created WCF-Custom receive adapter to poll Sql SP (WITH xmlnamespaces(DEFAULT 'Namespace' and For XML PATH(''), Type) . Get the result properly in batch while polling and but getting error while converting into CSV by using map.
Please can anyone give me some idea to export SQL data into CSV file using SP.

How are you doing this.
You would have got XML representation for the XML batch received from SQL
You should have a flat-file schema representing the CSV file which you want to send.
Map the received XML representation of data from SQL to flat-file schema
have custom pipeline with flat-file assembler on the assembler stage of the send pipeline.
In the send port use the map which convert received XML from SQL to flat file schema and use the above custom flat-file disassembler send port

What is the problem when opening jpg files using Desktop API

Hi, i would like to open jpg, or gif files using Desktop API, and the application crashes.The Desktop API is supported by my OS, because txt files, or file directories can be opened, mails can be sent, browsing is also supported.
Only jpg and gif, and i think other picture formats cannot be opened.
Obviously ACDSee and other picture viewing programs are installed in my computer.
The corresponding application code can be found at the bottom of the page of http://www.awprofessional.com/articles/article.asp?p=661371&seqNum=2&rl=1
my code:
if(Desktop.isDesktopSupported()){
Desktop desktop=Desktop.getDesktop();
try
desktop.open (fileToOpen);
catch (IOException ioe)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog (frame,
"I/O problem");
catch (IllegalArgumentException iae)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog (frame,
"File doesn�t exist");
fileToOpen is obviously a File.
Thx for the help in advance.

My file association for jpg files is correct, if i click on a
jpg, ACDSee starts immediately.Although I am a long time Windoze non-user, I vaguely remember that there's a difference between correct file-type association being set and some application starting at a mouse click on a file icon. I also vaguely remember Windoze file-type association mechanism uses a few action-types. Java Desktop should expect a specific action-type for the association.

Dots are appearing on characters after created PDF through *.dwg file using AutoVue API

Hi,
I created PDF's through *.dwg file using AutoVue API 20.2.2. I observed in more zoom of PDF, every character or line has dots. At the same time on second page of PDF drawing lines are thicker that first page of PDF.
Please kindly help on this, how to remove dots and drawing lines are published same as on first page.
Thanks,
Siva

As with any format that does not support zoomable line thickness, the output is dpi dependent
Imagine the DPI impact on a PDF is similar to the DPI on an image, except you can zoom into the lines, they look smooth (it is vector) but the position for the specific points is not as accurate as it should
So it all boils down to how are you generating the PDF?

Get old item name for renamed files using TFS API

My current tfs will be retired in next few months.I am using tfs api to create a parallel tfs on a new server from the existing one. I have folders and solutions that have been renamed. I am iterating items and based on their changetype(add, edit, delete,
sourcerename etc), I am checking them in destination tfs.
I am not able to get Old filename for a file, in order to use PendRename when the item that is being iterated is Delete|SourceRename or Rename.
I tried the mentioned solution :
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/f9c7e7b4-b05f-4d3e-b8ea-cfbd316ef737/how-to-get-previous-path-of-renamedmoved-of-file-using-tfs-api?forum=tfsgeneral
But, my changeset has a lot of changes and hence identifying a particular file seems difficult.
Do we have something that interraltes two items (the deleted and renamed) ones other than the changeset, because there needs to be a uniquely identifier that associated the two items so that they may appear together in TFS history?

Hi Fabcoder,
As Daniel mentioned, you can migrate source control files and work items to the new TFS server by using TFS integration tools.
If the new server has the complete history, then you can view the history of the specific file to check the pervious path. Or you can do a compare between the project in new TFS where the file located with the matched project in current TFS to check
the differences.

I responded to your

Are you using Exchange Server 2010 SP3 RU2? If not, that might fix the issue. Another poster ran into a similar error and they were also sending an email with an attachment:

Problem while writing data on xls file using jxl API

Hi,
I am getting problem while writing data on excel file using jxl api.
When i write data on file and all handles associated to the file are closed, file size increases but when i open the file nothing is written in it and when file is closed manually from excel window, file size decreased to its original that was before writing data.
here is code:
          FileOutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(this.dirPath + this.fileName, true);
          WritableWorkbook this.workbook = Workbook.createWorkbook(os);
after writing data following handler are closed:
this.os.flush();
                    this.workbook.write();
                    this.workbook.close();
                    this.os.close();
                    this.os = null;
can any body help me.
Thanks in advance

Err, I did help you. I did understand your problem; and I solved it for you. What was missing was that you apparently made no effort to understand what you were being told. Or even consider it. You just argued about it, as though you were the one with the solution, instead of the one whose code didn't work.
And the other thing that was missing was the part where you said 'thank you' to me for solving your problem. Somewhat more appropriate than biting the hand that fed you, frankly. I do this for nothing, on my own gas, and it's extremely irritating when people keep asking about problems I have already solved for them. I am entitled to discourage that. It's part of making them more efficient actually.
But it happens often enough that it also makes me think I'm just wasting my time. Probably I am.

How to detect exchange server version using EWS API?

Hello there,
I am new to this EWS area and I am looking for a way to detect exchange server version information whether user mailbox is exchange 2007 or 2010 or 2013 etc. Apologize if we already have such question posted earlier, I am posting it here as I could now find
any such forum.
1. Is it possible to fetch this information using EWS API? I am using EWS 2.0 libraries for now.
2. If yes, how can i get that information? can you please provide some sample?
Thanks in advance.
sureshh...

1. On 2010 and above you can use Autodiscover to get the EWS Schema version this is most accurate method to use. It's import to understand the EWS Schema version vs just the Server there is a good write up in
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn741586%28v=exchg.150%29.aspx . Some EWS Managed API code to get the server version would look like
AutodiscoverService adAutoDiscoverService = new AutodiscoverService();
adAutoDiscoverService.Credentials = ncCred;
adAutoDiscoverService.EnableScpLookup = true;
adAutoDiscoverService.RedirectionUrlValidationCallback = adAutoDiscoCallBack;
adAutoDiscoverService.PreAuthenticate = true;
adAutoDiscoverService.TraceEnabled = true;
adAutoDiscoverService.KeepAlive = false;
GetUserSettingsResponse adResponse = adAutoDiscoverService.GetUserSettings("[email protected]", (new UserSettingName[1] { UserSettingName.EwsSupportedSchemas }));
This won't work on 2007 but the other method you can use is if you set the version to 2007_SP1 and make a call like binding to the Inbox folder and then check the result in ServerInfo http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.exchange.webservices.data.exchangeservicebase.serverinfo(v=exchg.80).aspx
. (Note if your are going to use ServerInfo you do need to make a request like a FolderBind ).

Importing PST file using Import-Mailbox Command Crashes Powershell

I am attempting to import a .pst file into a mailbox via the Import-Mailbox powershell command. The command starts and imports the deleted items and creates the folder structure in the Inbox then crashes powershell. I am running Outlook 2007 SP2 on a Windows 2003 Std SP2 server w/Exchange 2007 SP1 Update Rollup 8 management tools. I have tried everything i can think of. This happens on multiple machines with similar packages installed. No anti-virus software is installed. It happens on both pst files i am testing with and no errors are logged in the event logs either on the exchange mailbox server or the server i am using to do the import.

Have you tried to do this from the actual Exchange 2007 server? I assume you are trying to import the pst to an Exchagne 2007 email account to Exchange 2007 correct?
Have you tried to perform the import on a Windows XP machine using the 32bit EMC/EMS rather then using Windows 2003 server?
I honestly recall in the back of my head a problem with Exchange 2007 and Outlook CDOs or something like that. I could be wrong but I remember something from a year ago.....
Seriously though, try it from a Windows XP machine running the Exchange Managerment Tools and see what happens rather then a W2K3 Server.
SF - MCITP:EMA, MCTS
Yea I double check the link i posted as well I never tried from a 2003 server either, I've always done it from an XP machine, but again we know its works because you got it to work with a newly export PST, so I think its more to do with the PST file itself, hopefully you dont have a bunch of them, if so let the users re-import them =)

How can I export a surround sound movie file using compressor?

I want to create movie files using Motion and Soundtrack Pro that have surround sound. I can make ac3 surround sound files in SOundtrack Pro, I can add them to projects in Final Cut Pro, but I can't see any way to use Compressor to output the movie files with surround sound. The encoding results in plain stereo files. Please help.

HI Tony, you should be able to do this simply within the Compressor.app V4.1.x using the "surround Sound Group" and the shipped setting DOLBY DIGITAL setting. Instead of just adding a file, you need to:
Add a "Surround Sound Group" (control++i or file/add surround sound group or use the "+" plus sign at bottom left corner of Current/BATCH window". You'll get a pane with the channels you need to manipulate.
Click on the tracks Icons L to Rs and select the surround tracks as prompted and navigate through the finder interface. .. simple. WAV, BWF etc
Optionally Add the video object from here too.
Select the BATCH job (top layer with the ORBIT looking icon)) and use the INSPECTOR (right pane) to see what audio objects have been selected and verify location etc.. follow the dialogue (follow your nose)
Then Select the SETTING layer and use the default DOLBY DIGITAL setting and form the "settings/Create Blu Ray/Dolby Digital" and drag it over the batch job setting
Select this and adjust the LOCATION for the target distribution
Select the INSPECTOR AUDIO pane (right pane) and adjust any settings and EFFECTS to your taste.
select the cluster (if one is defined)
+B (submit) the job for the distribution or another master.
This will work fine.. pretty easy.. You'll need to work the audio settings as you like. If you get stuck, use the compressor.app V4.1 help.. its actually good.
Post your results for others to see.

Generating PDF file using FOP API in Web Dynpro

Hi experts,
I would like to generate PDF files from a WebDynpro application without using Adobe Interactive forms.
I think that I can export context data to XML stream and then apply XSLT transformation to produce XSLFO format and then pass it to xlfo processor i.e FOP to generate the PDF file.
Has someone already try this way of generating PDF files?
Is it a good way of processing ?
Thanks in advance.
Thomas.

hi Thomas,
You can make use of the iText API to create pdf documents through webdynpro.
For this you'll have to download the Itext api jar file.
Right click your webdynpro project include this jar file using the 'add external jar files'.Now you'll be able to make use of this api in your webdynpro project.
http://javaboutique.internet.com/tutorials/iText/ .
The above link will help you in using iText API.
hope this one helps you.
Regards,
Rahul.
