Returns the item link of an item attached in the outgoing message.
itemLink = GetSendMailItemLink(attachment)
Arguments
- attachment
- number - The index of the attachment to query, in the range of [1,ATTACHMENTS_MAX_SEND]
Returns
- itemLink
- itemLink - The item link for the specified item
Details
- ATTACHMENTS_MAX_SEND is defined in Constants.lua, and currently (Jan 2014) has a value of 12. Using this variable instead of a hardcoded 12 is recommended in case Blizzard changes the maximum number of items that may be attached to a sent message.
- There is no API function to get the total number of items attached to a sent message. If your addon needs to know how many attachment slots are filled, you must loop over all the slots and count them yourself:
local total = 0
for i = 1, ATTACHMENTS_MAX_SEND do
if GetSendMailItemLink(i) then
total = total + 1
end
end
print("Attachment slots used:", total, "of", ATTACHMENTS_MAX_SEND)
