New Features

Setting Relative Path to Resources when Saving Email Message as HTML

You can now choose to save email resources with relative paths when exporting email messages to HTML format. This feature provides more flexibility in how resources are linked in the output HTML file, making it easier to share and display saved emails on different systems.

Details

• HtmlSaveOptions::get_UseRelativePathToResources() HtmlSaveOptions::set_UseRelativePathToResources() property was added. The property provides ability to save resources with relative paths.
• Default property value is false (resources are saved with absolute paths).
• When set to true, resources are saved with relative paths.
• HTML files with relative paths are more portable and can be viewed correctly regardless of the hosting environment’s file structure. You can choose between absolute and relative paths depending on the requirements.
• You can define custom paths for resources using the ResourceHtmlRendering event.

Save with Default Relative Path to Resources

auto msg = MapiMessage::Load(sourceFileName);

auto htmlSaveOptions = System::CreateObject<HtmlSaveOptions>();

htmlSaveOptions->set_ResourceRenderingMode(ResourceRenderingMode::SaveToFile);
htmlSaveOptions->set_UseRelativePathToResources(true);

msg->Save(Path::Combine(u"target.html"), htmlSaveOptions);

In this case, resources will be saved in the [html file name].files folder, in the same path as the .html file and the HTML will reference the resources via relative paths.

Save with Absolute Path to Resources

auto msg = MapiMessage::Load(sourceFileName);

auto htmlSaveOptions = System::CreateObject<HtmlSaveOptions>();

htmlSaveOptions->set_ResourceRenderingMode(ResourceRenderingMode::SaveToFile);
htmlSaveOptions->set_UseRelativePathToResources(false);

msg->Save(Path::Combine(u"target.html"), htmlSaveOptions);

As in the first case, resources will be saved in the [html file name].files folder by default, but the HTML will reference resources using absolute paths.

Custom Relative Path using ResourceHtmlRendering Event

auto msg = MapiMessage::Load(sourceFileName);
auto htmlSaveOptions = System::CreateObject<HtmlSaveOptions>();

htmlSaveOptions->set_ResourceRenderingMode(ResourceRenderingMode::SaveToFile);
htmlSaveOptions->set_UseRelativePathToResources(true);

auto handler = [](SharedPtr<Object> o, SharedPtr<ResourceHtmlRenderingEventArgs> args)
{
    if (System::ObjectExt::Is<AttachmentBase>(o))
    {
        auto attachment = System::ExplicitCast<AttachmentBase>(o);
        // Since UseRelativePathToResources = true, you should assign a relative path to the PathToResourceFile property.
        args->set_PathToResourceFile(u"images\\"+ attachment->get_ContentType()->get_Name()) = $@"images\{attachment.ContentType.Name}";
    }
}

htmlSaveOptions->ResourceHtmlRendering.connect(handler);

msg->Save(Path::Combine(u"A Day in the Park.html"), htmlSaveOptions);

By using the ResourceHtmlRendering event, you can set custom relative or absolute paths for resources. When customizing paths with the ResourceHtmlRendering event handler, and since UseRelativePathToResources is set to true, you should assign a relative path to the PathToResourceFile property to ensure correct referencing.
