This example demonstrates how to extract files from a binary SOAP MTOM MIME document. Visual FoxPro

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

loMime = CreateObject('Chilkat.Mime')

* In this example, we have a MIME file containing 8bit (non-encoded) binary data,
* and it is what I call "headless".  MIME is headless when it omits
* the top-level header.  The file we have here begins with the first
* boundary string.

* The structure the MIME to be loaded is:

* multipart/mixed (inferred because it is headless)
*     application/xop+xml
*     image/jpeg
*     image/gif
*     image/gif
* 

lnSuccess = loMime.LoadMimeFile("qa_data/mime/headless_binary_soap_mtom_mime.mim")
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loMime.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loMime
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* The MIME file loaded in this example contains this:

    * to be the only possible name we can use for each image..
