copied!<p>Well, my question was a little bit tricky. But I finally found an answer and will share it here.</p> <p>What I suspected was true : Windows uses UTF-16 (little endian) urls. It makes no differences working in UTF-8 when we only use paths to files such as images, text, etc. But to be able to access Outlook items, we must use UTF-16LE. If I were coding in C#, there wouldn't have been any problem. But in Java, you have to be more inventive.</p> <p>From Windows Desktop Search, I retrieve this:</p> <pre><code>mapi://{S-1-5-21-1626573300-1364474481-487586288-1001}/toto@mycompany.com($b423dcd5)/0/Inbox/가가가가곕갘객겒갨겑곓걌게겻겨곹곒갓곅갩갤가갠가 </code></pre> <p>And what I did is creating a temporary VB script and run it like this:</p> <pre><code>/** * Opens a set of items using the given set of paths. */ public static void openItems(List<String> urls) { try { // Create VB script String script = "Sub Run(ByVal sFile)\n" + "Dim shell\n" + "Set shell = CreateObject(\"WScript.Shell\")\n" + "shell.Run Chr(34) & sFile & Chr(34), 1, False\n" + "Set shell = Nothing\n" + "End Sub\n"; File file = new File("openitems.vbs"); // Format all urls before writing and add a line for each given url String urlsString = ""; for (String url : urls) { if (url.startsWith("file:")) { url = url.substring(5); } urlsString += "Run \"" + url + "\"\n"; } // Write UTF-16LE bytes in openitems.vbs FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(file); fos.write(script.getBytes("UTF-16LE")); fos.write(urlsString.getBytes("UTF-16LE")); fos.close(); // Run vbs file Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd.exe /C openitems.vbs"); } catch(Exception e){} } </code></pre>
