Closing of streams by mail objects in Aspose.Network

Aspose.Email Product Family

Hi,
A while back it seems a change in the Aspose.Network results in the mail objects disposing streams passed into it. For example:
AttachmentBase.SaveRawContent(Stream x)

closes the passed in stream. This means that code like the following:

public byte[] Content
{
get
{
using (MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream())
{
attachment.SaveRawContent(stream);
return stream.ToArray();
}
}
}

Doesnt work any longer and throws an ObjectDisposedException. This to me is counter-intuitive as the ownership of the said stream is not within Aspose.

How can the code above be achieved with the newer versions of the library ?

rgds,
Laku.

Hi Laku,

Thanks for considering Aspose.

Which version of Aspose.Network are you using? The following code works fine with v4.8.1.

public class NetworkUtil
{
// private mail message member
private MailMessage msg;

///


/// default constructor
///
public NetworkUtil()
{
// initialize mail message by loading file with attachment
msg = MailMessage.Load(@“E:\Data\Aspose\temp\attachcase.eml”, MessageFormat.Eml);
}

public byte[] Content
{
get
{
using (MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream())
{
msg.Attachments[0].SaveRawContent(stream);
return stream.ToArray();
}
}
}
}

If I get the public property Content by creating an instance of NetworkUtil class, it does not throw this exception.
