how to distinguish MMS and SMS in drafts folder

[johnlg]

Hi All,

i want to delete all MMS in the drafts folder, does anybody know how to distinguish MMS and SMS in the draft folder?

I have tried the following method, but it is not working..
//code
CMsvEntry* entry2= iSession->GetEntryL((*entries)[i]);
CleanupStack::PushL(entry2);
TMsvEntry tempEntry = entry2->Entry();
if (tempEntry.iMtm == KUidMsgTypeMultimedia)
//delete the MMS.

Very strange thing is upper code is working in the sentbox, inbox and outbox folders.

Is drafts folder not support that function? any idea? your help is really appreciate.

I'm using S60 3rd FP2 V1.1

thanks in advance...

So while deleting from drafts folder have you debugged your code? Any panic or leave or what?

Hi John,
Just try with ..

CMsvEntry* inboxContext=CMsvEntry::NewL(*iSession,KMsvDraftEntryId ,sort);

Hi sumit.rathi,

thanks for your reply.
i have debugged it and there is no panic and leave,
what i want to do is as below.

1. if (entry->ChildDataL(entryID).iMtm == KUidMsgTypeMultimedia)
2. {
3. entry->DeleteL(entryID);
4. }
problem:
during i debugged it, there was a MMS in drafts folder, but the third line never run,

thanks,
John

thanks Parag,

all my code is here,


CMsvEntry* entry = CMsvEntry::NewL(*iSession, KMsvDraftEntryId, TMsvSelectionOrdering());

CleanupStack::PushL(entry);
CMsvEntrySelection* entries = entry->ChildrenL();
CleanupStack::PushL(entries);
TInt iCount = entries->Count();
for (TInt i = 0; i < iCount; i++)
{
TMsvId entryID = entries->At(i);
const TMsvEntry& msvEntry = entry->ChildDataL(entryID);

if (msvEntry.iMtm == KUidMsgTypeMultimedia) //check MMS
{
entry->DeleteL(entryID);// this line never run, although there is a mms
}
}

my problem is the last line never run, although there is a MMS in draft.

Thanks,
John

So can you debug a bit further and see what actually gets executed.

thanks symbianyucca,

i have debuged again and tried to get the TUid uid = msvEntry.iMtm, but uid is changed every debugging times. such as uid = 0x2FB9DD3C or 3B16DCE8, which is different with KUidMsgTypeMultimedia,

So i doubt the drafts folder does not support distinguishing MMS and SMS, am i right?

That incorrect, the messages are always identified by the MTM identifier, so you just need to figure out what it is that your logic is doing wrongly.

Hi John

Try with below .... it should work fine.

{
TMsvSelectionOrdering sort;
sort.SetShowInvisibleEntries(ETrue);
// we want to handle also the invisible entries
CMsvEntry* draftContext=CMsvEntry::NewL(*iSession,KMsvDraftEntryId ,sort);
CleanupStack::PushL(draftContext);
CMsvEntrySelection* entries = draftContext->ChildrenL();
CleanupStack::PushL( entries );
TInt msgCount= entries->Count();
TInt i;
for (i=0; i < msgCount; i++)
{
TMsvId entryID = entries->At(i);
CMsvEntry* entry= iSession->GetEntryL((*entries)[i]);
CleanupStack::PushL(entry);
entry->DeleteL(entryID);
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(entry);
}
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(entries);
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(draftContext);
}

thanks parag_purkar,

your code will delete all the messages (including email, MMS and SMS) in the drafts folder, which means it also can't distinguish MMS and SMS. any idea?

Thanks all guys' kind help again.

it is working now. there is no problem with my code. there is something wrong with testing phone. :-(

thanks all's kindly help.

You are really sure about it, anyway, try adding some file logging to see what goes wrong with the testing device, if you find one device it does not work, there will be lot more when you release your application, so you should really try figuring it out in a way that it works reliably with all devices.
