Description

Holds ending position of message in mailbox.


Property type

A Long value.  


Syntax

object.EndPosition



The EndPosition Property syntax has these parts:

Part Description
object An expression evaluating to an object of type Message.

Remarks

EndPosition value you can use to manually access mailbox file in case you need it. Once you Lock your mailbox, wodMailbox will parse complete file and only gather information about messages start positions, end positions, and their sizes. This is enough for you to access them and get general information, uses very low amount of memory, and it's extremely fast.

Once you want to access specific message, wodMailbox will use StartPosition and EndPosition properties to locate message in mailbox and load it to memory (when needed, and depending which part is needed).

You can use StartPosition and EndPosition properties if you want to externally access mailbox file. For example, you might split it to separate message files easily just by having this information. Or, you can easily 'inject' new message in mailbox file, etc.
