vuMailKit - Template Usage

To use vuMailKit, add the global extension template to your application.

Add the template

Open your application in the Clarion IDE.
Go to Global Extensions and click Insert.
Type vuMailKit in the search box.
Select the vuMailKit global extension entry and click Select.
Click OK to close the Global Extensions window.

Typical template responsibilities

The template is the normal place to:

provide the license string used by vuMailKitInitialize()
configure product-wide defaults such as OAuth support
supply OAuth client settings for supported providers
generate the public Clarion prototypes used by the application

OAuth setup note

If you enable OAuth support in the vuMailKit global template, open the OAuth Settings tab and enter the provider values in quoted form.

Example format:

'client-string'

For Google / Gmail support, both the Google Client ID and Google Secret are entered this way.

OAuth Success Name

When using Google / Gmail OAuth, the OAuth Success Name field lets you specify the name shown to the user on the Google success page after authorization completes successfully.

This is useful when you want the post-login success page to display your product name, company name, or application name instead of a more generic label.

Example:

'My Mail Utility'

Enter the value in quoted form, the same way you enter the Google client values.

This setting is used for the Google success page presentation only. It does not replace your Google Client ID or Google Secret.

Deployment reminder

Include vuMailKit.dll with your application at runtime.
The .lib file is used only at compile time.
