Why to Convert
As a C++ developer, you may need to add email conversion features inside your applications. This could be for a variety of reasons, such as to make the emails easier to read, to make them more accessible, or to make them easier to store and share.
How Aspose.Total Helps for EMLX to Text Conversion
Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of APIs that can help you to easily add email conversion features to your applications. It includes two APIs, Aspose.Email for C++ and Aspose.Words for C++, which can be used to convert EMLX file format to HTML and then export HTML to TEXT.
Using Aspose.Email for C++, you can easily convert EMLX files to HTML. This API supports a wide range of email file formats, including EML, EMLX, MSG, MHTML, and PST. It also provides a range of features, such as the ability to read and write emails, convert emails to different formats, and extract attachments from emails.
Once you have converted the EMLX file to HTML, you can then use Aspose.Words for C++ to export the HTML to TEXT. This API provides a range of features for working with documents, such as the ability to create, edit, and convert documents, as well as to extract text from documents. It also supports a wide range of document formats, including DOC, DOCX, HTML, ODT, and PDF.
By using Aspose.Total for C++, you can easily add email conversion features to your applications. It provides two APIs, Aspose.Email for C++ and Aspose.Words for C++, which can be used to convert EMLX file format to HTML and then export HTML to TEXT. This makes it easy to add email conversion features to your applications, allowing you to quickly and easily convert emails to different formats.
C++ API to Convert EMLX to TEXT
- Open EMLX file using MailMessage class reference
- Convert EMLX to HTML by using Save member function
- Load HTML by using Document class
- Save the document to TEXT format using Save method and set Text as SaveFormat
Get Started with C++ File Format APIs
Install from command line as nuget install Aspose.Total.Cpp
or via Package Manager Console of Visual Studio with Install-Package Aspose.Total.Cpp
.
Alternatively, get the offline MSI installer or DLLs in a ZIP file from downloads .
// load the EMLX file to be converted
System::SharedPtr<MailMessage> msg = MailMessage::Load(u"sourceFile.emlx");
// save EMLX as a HTML
msg->Save(u"HtmlOutput.html", SaveOptions::get_DefaultHtml());
// load HTML with an instance of Document
System::SharedPtr<Document> doc = System::MakeObject<Document>(u"HtmlOutput.html");
// call save method while passing Text as save format
doc->Save(u"convertedFile.Text");
Parse EMLX File via C++
Not only you can convert your EMLX to TEXT, but you can read, manipulate, and parse EMLX document. You can get subject, address, body, recipients information of the email by using MapiMessage class of Aspose.Email for C++ API. For example, you can check for a specific sender email for the conversion by using get_SenderEmailAddress() property.
// create an instance of MapiMessage from file
System::SharedPtr<MapiMessage> msg = MapiMessage::FromFile(dataDir + L"message.emlx");
// get subject
System::Console::WriteLine(System::String(L"Subject:") + msg->get_Subject());
// get from address
System::Console::WriteLine(System::String(L"From:") + msg->get_SenderEmailAddress());
// get body
System::Console::WriteLine(System::String(L"Body") + msg->get_Body());
// get recipients information
System::Console::WriteLine(System::String(L"Recipient: ") + msg->get_Recipients());
C++ API to Restrict TEXT File Format Editing
You can also add document protection features in your app while exporting the document from EMLX to TEXT. Adding protection to your document is a simple process, as all you need to do is apply the protection method to your document. You can set protection type to ReadOnly to restrict the user to edit the document.
// create a new document and protect it with a password.
auto doc = System::MakeObject<Document>();
// apply Document Protection.
doc->Protect(ProtectionType::ReadOnly, u"password");
// save the document.
doc->Save(u"DocumentProtection.PasswordProtection.Text");
