Why to Convert
C++ developers often need to add email conversion features to their applications. This can be done by converting OFT file format to HTML, and then exporting HTML to EPUB. This allows developers to create applications that can easily convert emails to other formats.
How Aspose.Total Helps for OFT to EPUB Conversion
Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of APIs that can be used to add email conversion features to applications. It includes two APIs, Aspose.Email for C++ and Aspose.Words for C++, which can be used to convert OFT file format to HTML and then export HTML to EPUB. Aspose.Email for C++ provides a set of classes that can be used to read, write, and convert emails in various formats. It also provides features such as email signature verification, email encryption, and email attachment management. Aspose.Words for C++ is a powerful API that can be used to create, edit, and convert documents in various formats. It also provides features such as document comparison, document protection, and document conversion. By using both APIs, developers can easily convert emails from OFT to EPUB.
C++ API to Convert OFT to EPUB
- Open OFT file using MailMessage class reference
- Convert OFT 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 OFT file to be converted
System::SharedPtr<MailMessage> msg = MailMessage::Load(u"sourceFile.oft");
// save OFT 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 OFT File via C++
Not only you can convert your OFT to EPUB, but you can read, manipulate, and parse OFT 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.oft");
// 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 OFT 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");
