How do I Install CDO (Collaboration Data Objects)?

There are a few ways to install CDO. The method to use depends on what version of Microsoft Outlook you currently have installed (if any). Since different copies of CDO cannot co-exist on the same machine, please only follow the instructions that apply to your system configuration.

1. Microsoft Outlook is not installed

Download and install the stand-alone Messaging API (MAPI) client version available here.

2. Microsoft Outlook 2007

Beginning in Outlook 2007, Microsoft no longer provides CDO as part of the product installation. However, since Outlook is a MAPI client itself, the stand-alone version that does not come pre-packaged with the MAPI client must be used. This version of CDO can be downloaded here.Note: This version of CDO may only be used with Outlook 2007. Microsoft does not support CDO with Office 2010 or later.

3. Microsoft Outlook 2003 and earlier

In Outlook 2003 and earlier, CDO is bundled as a component in MS Outlook; however, it is not installed by default when you install MS Outlook. The following steps demonstrate how to install CDO as a component of Outlook using a Windows XP machine. Similar steps apply for other operating systems.

Open Add or Remove Programs under Settings > Control Panel.
Click on Change or Remove Programs on the left side bar and select Microsoft Off

Retrieving the Global Address List (GAL) from an Exchange Server

The following example demonstrates how to retrieve the Global Address List (GAL) from an Exchange server using CDO. Before you try this example, make sure that you have installed J-Integra and configured the Exchange server.

For more information about the programming API of CDO, please refer to Microsoft CDO Object Model.

The related article to the right explains how to retrieving additional fields from a contact record.

Using an Admin Account to Access Multiple Mailboxes
J-Integra KB Admin — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 08:22:00 GMT
Abstract: Using an Admin Account to Access Multiple Mailboxes
Other Java-Exchange connectors use MAPI and impersonation to access the Exchange Server. The motivation behind using impersonation is to be able to access multiple mailboxes without the need for special admin privileges. Although this is a feasible solution, it has been known to cause some problems. As Microsoft points out:
"We've seen a number of crashes in code that uses impersonation and then uses MAPI. Many of these relate to heap allocations occurring with one user context and then the deallocations happening with another context. Both the Exchange and Outlook development teams are aware of these issues. However, especially due to the problem with CreateThread, we've not been able to fix all of them."
Source: http://blogs.msdn.com/stephen_griffin/archive/2005/04/13/407925.aspx
Microsoft's suggested solution for accessing multiple mailboxes is to use an admin account instead of impersonation:
"If you're using impersonation in order to access multiple mailboxes, you may be doing too much work. […]code running under an administrator account with the right permissions […] can access any mailbox without doing any impersonation."
Source: http://blogs.msdn.com/stephen_griffin/archive/2005/04/13/407925.aspx
The technology used by J-Integra for Exchange to access multiple mailboxes is akin to what Microsoft recommends. As pointed out in this knowledge base article, we require the use of an admin account when accessing multiple mailboxes.

Using Events with Microsoft Exchange
J-Integra KB Admin — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 03:11:00 GMT
Abstract: Using Events with Microsoft Exchange  
Exchange is very different in the way it exposes events - you do not use a regular type library (CDO.DLL) and run com2java on it, etc. If you noticed, the type library contained in CDO.DLL does not have any declarations for exposed events. Events in the Exchange Server are actually run as a separate service known as the Microsoft Exchange Event Service (EVENTS.EXE). Two things of note: 
1. The Event Service can only monitor folders stored on an Exchange server. It will not monitor folders stored on the local machines of users. For that, you'll need the Outlook type library instead (which contains events you can hook into) and not CDO.DLL. 
2. The Event Service fires events asynchronously rather than synchronously in the context of the Exchange Information Store, so the Information Store won't block your event script, other processes, or people from working on items in the folder if the script hasn't run yet. 
The general idea
The Event Service monitors changes to a folder and triggers an event if such change occurs. A change could either be one of the following: 
A new item is added to a folder (e.g. an new mail arrives in your inbox) 
An existing item is modified (e.g. the business phone number of a contact item is changed) 
An item is deleted 
Scheduled events (e.g. events that are triggered every Saturday at 1:00 am) 
Once the Event Service realizes that a change has occurred, it fires an event. It then looks for a corresponding event handler in the folder. The Exchange Event Service ships with one pre-built event handler, named the Exchange Event Scripting Agent that you can bind t

J-Integra KB Admin — Tue, 12 Jun 2007 04:36:00 GMT
Abstract: "bad class file. class file has wrong version 50.0, should be 4x.0."
When compiling your code using the JAR files packaged with J-Integra for COM v2.7 or J-Integra for Exchange v2.7 (excel2007.jar & cdo.jar respectively) , you may receive an error similar to the one below: 
SampleProgram.java:28: cannot access com.intrinsyc.cdo.Session
bad class file: C:\Program Files\J-Integra\Exchange\lib\cdo.jar(com/intrinsyc/cdo/Session.class)
class file has wrong version 50.0, should be 48.0
Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.
            Session session = new Session(CDOmachine);
            ^
1 error
These types of errors are caused by a Java version mismatch between the compiled proxies and your runtime.
Below are a list of some of the version numbers and their corresponding Java runtimes:
Version 50.0 = Java 1.6.x
Version 49.0 = Java 1.5.x
Version 48.0 = Java 1.4.x
To resolve this issue, regenerate the proxies using com2java and compile them with your version of the Java SDK.  Alternatively, you can download some precompiled proxies from our Precompiled Java Proxy JAR Files KB article.
 
Note: The downloadable proxies were compiled using Java 1.4, except for Excel 2007, which for compatibility reasons, was compiled using Java 1.5.
