How to access emails from contacts app in your application?

Question

I need to send emails to a list of IDs from the contact application, from my application. Is there a way to access the contacts?

Answer 1

There is example code for doing basically this here. The example is accessing the phone numbers rather than the email addresses.

Where the example is using kABPersonPhoneProperty you will want to be using kABPersonEmailProperty instead.

Answer 2

hi thanx for the link , the example says to add the AddressBook.framework and AddressBookUI.framework frameworks , though i added the AddressBook.framework , AddressBookUI.framework is not available in the framwork folder .. i tried searching it in /Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS2.0.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/AddressBookUI.framework , but the platform folder is also empty ...
