C++ API to Export MSG to EPUB
Transform MSG to EPUB within C++ application without requiring Microsoft Word or Outlook
Why to Convert
C++ developers often need to add email conversion features to their applications. This can be done by converting MSG file format to HTML and then exporting HTML to EPUB. This allows developers to create applications that can easily convert emails into a format that can be read on a variety of devices.
How Aspose.Total Helps for MSG to EPUB Conversion
Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of APIs that can help developers to easily add email conversion features to their applications. It includes two APIs, Aspose.Email for C++ and Aspose.Words for C++, which can be used to convert MSG file format to HTML and then export HTML to EPUB. Aspose.Email for C++ provides a wide range of features for working with emails, such as creating, reading, and converting emails. Aspose.Words for C++ is a powerful API for working with documents, which can be used to export HTML to EPUB. Both APIs are easy to use and can be integrated into any C++ application. With Aspose.Total for C++, developers can quickly and easily add email conversion features to their applications.
C++ API to Convert MSG to EPUB
- Open MSG file using MailMessage class reference
- Convert MSG to HTML by using Save member function
- Load HTML by using Document class
- Save the document to EPUB format using Save method and set Epub 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 MSG file to be converted
System::SharedPtr<MailMessage> msg = MailMessage::Load(u"sourceFile.msg");
// save MSG 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 Epub as save format
doc->Save(u"convertedFile.Epub");
Parse MSG File via C++
Not only you can convert your MSG to EPUB, but you can read, manipulate, and parse MSG 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.msg");
// 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 EPUB File Format Editing
You can also add document protection features in your app while exporting the document from MSG to EPUB. 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.Epub");
