For a c# program to automatically extract information from email attachments
using the Outlook 9 OM, rather than saving to a file, then reading the file,
I would prefer to 'Save' the attachment to a string variable.
The OM says that .SaveAsFile returns void. The input parameter is a
string.
Is there any way I could somehow 'fool' this method to 'save the file to
string' variable so I don't have to then, open the file and read it back
into a string ? 4 1511
I don't know about your specific question, but if you are not able to get
Outlook work return a string, you could save the file to the temporary
folder and read it in that way. Then remove the file when your program
exits. That would the user the illusion that it is simply reading the file
since there will be no visible evidence of files cluttering the system.

That is what I am doing.
But I was hoping to accomplish the same thing without File I/O.
Outlook doesn't permit that.

I'm working in Visual Studio 2005 and C#.
I'm working in an application that automatically saves a file to a specific
directory.
I've seen other applications that can detect if a file of the same name
already exists, and if so, adds a number to the filename. For example, if
foo.doc already exists, the application is smart enough to save the new file
as foo.doc.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
