Drag and drop from an email file attachment in Gro

2019-05-06 14:48发布

问题:

I'm trying to allow an attachment from an email open in Novell GroupWise to be dropped into my C# WinForms application. The standard .NET functionality doesn't work.

In the DragDrop event of a control, e.Data.GetFormats() returns the following.

FileGroupDescriptorW
FileGroupDescriptor
FileContents
attachment format

I can get the filename with e.Data.GetData("FileGroupDescriptor") and going to position 76.

Unfortunately, e.Data.GetData("FileContents") causes a first chance System.NotImplementedException in System.Windows.Forms.dll and returns null. Attachment format also returns null.

My searches tell me that drag and drop is a lot more complex than I thought :) It seems like GroupWise might be using a format called CFSTR_FILECONTENTS but that's just a guess. The attachments can be successfully dragged and dropped onto the Windows desktop or other folders.

Thanks for any suggestions.

I had no luck finding this too. Here is what I came up with (Groupwise 7):

private void control_DragDrop(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
{
   string strFilename = null;

   //something about the act of reading this stream creates the file in your temp folder(?)
   using (MemoryStream stream = (MemoryStream)e.Data.GetData("attachment format", true))
   {
       byte[] b = new byte[stream.Length];
       stream.Read(b, 0, (int)stream.Length);
       strFilename = Encoding.Unicode.GetString(b);
       //The path/filename is at position 10.
       strFilename = strFilename.Substring(10, strFilename.IndexOf('\0', 10) - 10);
       stream.Close();
   }

   if (strFilename != null && File.Exists(strFilename))
   {
      //From here on out, you're just reading another file from the disk...
      using(FileStream fileIn = File.Open(strFilename, FileMode.Open))
      {
          //Do your thing
          fileIn.Close();
      }
   }

   File.Delete(strFilename);
}
