Question

我们正在开发Outlook 2007加载项。为了测试outlook类别重命名，我添加了以下代码块

 var session = Application.Session;
 var categories = session.Categories;
 var category1 = session.Categories[1];

 //catefory1.Name is "Group1" before executing line below
 category1.Name = "TEST!!!";

 Marshal.ReleaseComObject(category1);
 Marshal.ReleaseComObject(categories);
 Marshal.ReleaseComObject(session);

到加载项private void ThisAddIn_Startup(object sender, EventArgs e)方法的末尾。类别已重命名，但如果Outlook已关闭，则会对上面的行进行注释，并再次启动Outlook - 类别名称不是“TEST !!!”正如我所料。重命名之前是“Group1”。是否可以通过代码“永远”重命名outlook类别？ Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Category没有Save（）或Update（）或Persist（）方法。

P.S。我们正在使用Visual Studio 2008，.net 3.5，C＃3开发Outlook 2007加载项。 Outlook 2007 SP1和SP2重现此问题。其他展望版本未经过测试。

我已经使用黑客解决了问题（问题本身似乎是Outlook 2007的错误）。以下链接帮助我创建了hack（oops，没有足够的声誉发布超过1个链接）：

                    var xmlBytes = (byte[])categoryListPropertyAccessor.GetProperty(schemaName);

                    // the byte array has to be translated into a string and then the XML has to be parsed
                    var xmlReader = XmlReader.Create(new StringReader(Encoding.UTF8.GetString(xmlBytes)));

                    while (xmlReader.MoveToNextAttribute())
                    {
                        if (xmlReader.Name != XmlNamespaceAttribute) // skip namespace attr

                    }
                    while (xmlReader.Read())
                    {
                        switch (xmlReader.NodeType)
                        {
                            case XmlNodeType.Element: // read category
                                xmlWriter.WriteStartElement(CategoryElement);
                                while (xmlReader.MoveToNextAttribute())
                                {
                                    if ((xmlReader.Name == NameAttribute) && (xmlReader.Value == oldName))
                                    {
                                        xmlWriter.WriteAttributeString(NameAttribute, newName);
                                    }
                                    else
                                    {
                                        xmlWriter.WriteAttributeString(xmlReader.Name, xmlReader.Value);
                                    }
                                }
                                xmlWriter.WriteEndElement();
                                break;
                            case XmlNodeType.EndElement: // categories ended
                                xmlWriter.WriteEndElement();
                                break;
                        }
                    }
                    xmlReader.Close();
                    xmlWriter.Close();

                    xmlBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(stringWriter.ToString());
                    categoryListPropertyAccessor.SetProperty(schemaName, xmlBytes);
                    categoryListStorageItem.Save();
                }
                catch (OutOfMemoryException)
                {
                    // if error is "out of memory error" then the XML blob was too big
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

必须在类别重命名之前调用此辅助方法，例如：

 var session = Application.Session;
 var categories = session.Categories;
 var category1 = session.Categories[1];

 //catefory1.Name is "Group1" before executing line below
 OutlookCategoryHelper.RenameCategory(category1.Name, "TEST!!!", Application);
 category1.Name = "TEST!!!";

 Marshal.ReleaseComObject(category1);
 Marshal.ReleaseComObject(categories);
 Marshal.ReleaseComObject(session);

Answer 2

这是Outlook 2007 SP2中引入的Outlook错误。

“请考虑以下情形。您可以运行自定义应用程序以在Outlook 2007中创建新类别。您运行该应用程序以在Outlook 2007中创建新类别。然后，如果您重新启动Outlook 2007，您创建的类别将被意外删除。安装Februarycumulative更新或SP2后会出现此问题。“

自2009年6月30日起，有一个修补程序： http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/970944/en

此致添

是否可以通过编程方式重命名Outlook类别？
