Commands
Mandatory commands
Command Name
Return Type
Parameters
Description
getCommandInfo
void
This command obtains an interface which allows to query
information on commands supported by a content.
getPropertySetInfo
void
This command obtains an interface which allows to query
information on properties supported by a content.
getPropertyValues
sequence<
This command obtains property values from the content.
Note: The execution will not be aborted, if there
are properties requested, that are unknown to the
content. The returned row object must contain a NULL
value in the corresponding column instead.
setPropertyValues
sequence< any >
sequence<
This command sets property values of the content.

open
For folder objects, this command will return an

open
void
For non-folder objects, the
createNewContent
This command creates a new non-persistent content of a given type.
Note: This command is part of the replacement for the deprecated
interface
insert
void
update
void
This command triggers an update operation on a content.
For example, when "updating" a POP3-Inbox, the content
for that box will get and store all new objects on the
appropriate server. The inserted contents will be
notified by calling
synchronize
void
This command triggers a synchronization operation between locally
cached data and remote server's data. For example, when
"synchronizing" a POP3-Inbox the content for that box will get and
store all new objects and destroy all cached data for objects no
longer existing on the server. The inserted/deleted contents will
be notified by calling
close
void
void
This command closes an object.
delete
void
boolean bDeletePhysically
This command deletes an object. If
undelete
void
void
This command restores an object previously deleted into trash. It
must be supported by objects which claim to be undeletable, but
should never be called directly.
search
This command searches for subcontents of a content matching the
given search criteria. The command will return an implemenation
of service
transfer
void
Important note: A client that wants to transfer data should
not execute this command, but it should execute the command
"globalTransfer" at the
This command transfers (copies/moves) an object from one location
to another. It must be executed at the folder content representing
the destination of the transfer operation.
Note that the implementation need not be able to handle
any type of contents.
Generally, there are good chances that a transfer of a content will
succeed, if source and target folder have the same URL scheme.
But there is no guaranty for that.
For instance, moving a message from a folder on IMAP server A
to a folder on IMAP server B may fail, because the transfer
command can't be implemented efficiently for this scenario,
because it is not directly supported by the IMAP protocol.
On the other hand, moving a message from one folder to
another folder on the same IMAP server should work, because it can
be implemeted efficiently.
If an implementation is not able to handle a given source URL,
it should indicate this by issuing a
targetContent = target.execute( "createNewContent", type )
props = sourceContent.execute( "getPropertyValues", ... )
dataStream = sourceContent.execute( "open", ... )
targetContent.execute( "setPropertyValues", props )
targetContent.execute( "insert", dataStream )
sourceContent.execute( "delete", ... )
lock
void
void
This command obtains an exlusive write lock for the resource. The
lock is active until command "unlock" is executed, or the OOo
session that obtained the lock ends, or until the lock is released by
a third party (e.g. a system administrator).
Exceptions:
unlock
void
void
This command removes a lock obtained by executing the command "lock"
from the resource.
addProperty
void
Adds a new properties to the content.
Note: This command replaces the deprecated interface method
removeProperty
void
string PropertyName
Removes the properties from the content.

( i.e. "application/vnd.sun.star.hierarchy-link" ).
IsFolder
boolean
indicates, whether a content can contain other contents.
IsDocument
boolean
indicates, whether a content is a document. This means,
the content can dump itself into a data sink.

Description
AutoUpdateInterval
long
contains the interval for automatic updates of an object.
It is specified in seconds.
ConnectionLimit
short
contains the maximum number of network connections
allowed for one (internet) protocol at a time. (e.g. The HTTP

connections used for browsing.)

CreatableContentsInfo
sequence
contains the types of Contents a Content object can create via
command "createNewContent".

fields of a MIME-message, or the document info of an
office document ). For some standard header fields there
are predefined separate properties, like "MessageTo".
DocumentStoreMode
contains information about the way a folder stores the
contents of (remote) documents.

a POP3-Account).
