PidTagBodyCrc Canonical Property

This content is outdated and is no longer being maintained. It is provided as a courtesy for individuals who are still using these technologies. This page may contain URLs that were valid when originally published, but now link to sites or pages that no longer exist.

Contains a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) value on the message text.

Associated properties:

PR_BODY_CRC

Identifier:

0x0E1C

Data type:

PT_LONG

Area:

Exchange

Remarks

The message store can use any CRC algorithm that generates a PT_LONG value. It must compute this property as part of the IMAPIProp::SaveChanges method when the PR_BODY (PidTagBody) property has been set for the first time and whenever it has been subsequently modified.

A client application uses PR_BODY_CRC to aid in comparing message text strings contained in PR_BODY properties or their variants. Using this property, the client can quickly and easily detect when the message text has changed. It can realize significant performance gains by using PR_BODY_CRC instead of obtaining PR_BODY from the message store and comparing it with a local version.
