// Important: Don't forget to include the call to System.loadLibrary
// as shown at the bottom of this code sample.
package com.test;

import android.app.Activity;
import com.chilkatsoft.*;

import android.widget.TextView;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class SimpleActivity extends Activity {

  private static final String TAG = "Chilkat";

  // Called when the activity is first created.
  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    CkMime mime = new CkMime();

    // The contents of this MIME file are shown below, 
    // and is also available at https://www.chilkatsoft.com/sampleMime.txt
    boolean success = mime.LoadMimeFile("qa_data/mime/sampleMime.txt");
    if (success != true) {
        Log.i(TAG, mime.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    // The MIME used in this example has the following nested structure
    // 
    // multipart/alternative
    //     text/plain
    //     multipart/related
    //         text/html
    //         image/jpeg
    // 

    // Convert to XML.
    String xmlStr = mime.getXml();

    // Load into a Chilkat XML object so we can emit in indented format.
    // (and also to demonstrate how to access the MIME content from XML).
    CkXml xml = new CkXml();
    xml.LoadXml(xmlStr);
    // The XML emitted by this statement is shown below, following the remainder of sample code.
    Log.i(TAG, xml.getXml());

    // To get the top-level Subject header field:
    Log.i(TAG, "Subject = " + xml.chilkatPath("header|subject|*"));

    // Another way of getting the Subject:
    xml.FirstChild2();
    Log.i(TAG, "Subject = " + xml.getChildContent("subject"));
    xml.GetRoot2();

    // Using the Chilkat XML API, there are many different ways of accomplishing a goal.
    // This example shows only a few possibilities...

    // Let's go to the <body> tag containing the HTML.
    // First we find the XML node where the content-type is text/html.
    // (XML methods ending in "2" update the internal reference to the XML node.)
    success = xml.SearchForContent2(xml,"content-type","text/html");
    if (success == true) {
        // From this point, we know the HTML content is two levels up (to the <mime_message> node),
        // and one level down (to the <body> node).  We can get the HTML content from here:
        String htmlContent = xml.chilkatPath("..|..|body|*");
        Log.i(TAG, htmlContent);
        Log.i(TAG, "-");
        }

    // Back to the root...
    xml.GetRoot2();

    // How to iterate over all image/jpeg bodies and access the bytes of each?
    success = xml.SearchForContent2(xml,"content-type","image/jpeg");
    while (success == true) {
        // "$" in the Chilkat path indicates to update the internal reference of the caller
        // if the path could be traversed.
        String notUsed = xml.chilkatPath("..|..|body|$");
        if (xml.get_LastMethodSuccess() == true) {
            CkByteData jpgBytes = new CkByteData();
            success = xml.GetBinaryContent(false,false,"",jpgBytes);

            Log.i(TAG, "Found JPG image!");

            // Find the next JPG image.
            success = xml.SearchForContent2(xml,"content-type","image/jpeg");
            }
        else {
            success = false;
