In lotus notes I have successfully created add-in menu. Now on click of the menu I want to access all mails selected(checked) by user in the currently open mail database.
But there seems to be no method of the LNNotesDatabase class for doing this.
In lotus script the method UnProcessedDocuments is available for NotesDatabase class but I cannot use lotus script for the functionality I need to do. I need to use C or C++ API only.
Subject: Selected documents cannot be accessed by C/C++ API
While going through the C++ documentation, I came across this topic
------ As found in the documentation ----------
Can I use the C++ API to process the selected documents in a view or folder?
The list of selected documents, like other elements of the Notes user interface, is not available to C or C++ API programs.
This says it all!!!
I now have to look for a different method for the functionality I want to implement.
Subject: so you need to go the UI route…
the whole point of the new client is to let you do front-end integration. Rather than an add-in DLL, write a plugin that will find the open view, and see what values you can get from that.
