vsto Catch new item in sync issues folder event

vsto Catch new item in sync issues folder

Something like this would handle various numbers of subfolders under SyncIssues. It uses a handler class to handle each folder instance's Items.ItemAdd() event. It's just stub code, you need to add your own logic and exception handling.

 

using Outlook = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook;

using Office = Microsoft.Office.Core;

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

namespace OutlookAddIn1

{

public partial class ThisAddIn

{

private System.Collections.Generic.List<FolderHandler> _list = null;

private void ThisAddIn_Startup(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

{

Outlook.NameSpace ns = this.Application.GetNamespace("MAPI");

Outlook.Folder fol = ns.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderSyncIssues) as Outlook.Folder;

GetFolderToAdd(fol);

Marshal.ReleaseComObject(fol);

fol = null;

Marshal.ReleaseComObject(ns);

ns = null;

}

private void GetFolderToAdd(Outlook.Folder folder)

{

AddFolder(folder);

Outlook.Folders fols = folder.Folders;

if (fols.Count > 0)

{

Outlook.Folder fol = null;

for (int i = 1; i <= fols.Count; i++)

{

fol = fols[i] as Outlook.Folder;

GetFolderToAdd(fol);

Marshal.ReleaseComObject(fol);

fol = null;

}

}

Marshal.ReleaseComObject(fols);

fols = null;

}

private void AddFolder(Outlook.Folder folder)

{

_list.Add(new FolderHandler(folder));

}

private void ThisAddIn_Shutdown(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

{

}

// handler class:

using Outlook = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook;

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

namespace OutlookAddIn1

{

public class FolderHandler

{

private Outlook.Folder _folder = null;

private Outlook.Items _items = null;

public FolderHandler(Outlook.Folder folder)

{

_folder = folder;

_items = _folder.Items;

_items.ItemAdd += new Outlook.ItemsEvents_ItemAddEventHandler(_items_ItemAdd);

}

public void Kill()

{

_items.ItemAdd -= new Outlook.ItemsEvents_ItemAddEventHandler(_items_ItemAdd);

Marshal.ReleaseComObject(_items);

_items = null;

Marshal.ReleaseComObject(_folder);

_folder = null;

GC.Collect();

}

private void _items_ItemAdd(object Item)

{

throw new NotImplementedException();

}

}

}
