```
public class LinkedResource extends AttachmentBase
```

Represents an embedded resource in a message.

--------------------

> The following example shows how to embed objects using LinkedResource into an Email.
> 
> [Java]
> 
> ```
> MailMessage eml = new MailMessage();
>  eml.setFrom(MailAddress.to_MailAddress("AndrewIrwin@from.com"));
>  eml.setTo(MailAddressCollection.to_MailAddressCollection("SusanMarc@to.com"));
>  eml.setSubject("This is an email");
> 
>  // Create the plain text part It is viewable by those clients that don't support HTML
>  AlternateView plainView = AlternateView.createAlternateViewFromString("This is my plain text content", null,
>  "text/plain");
> 
>  // Create the HTML part.To embed images, we need to use the prefix 'cid' in the img src value.
>  // The cid value will map to the Content-Id of a Linked resource. Thus <img src='cid:barcode'>
>  // will map to a LinkedResource with a ContentId of 'barcode'.
>  AlternateView htmlView = AlternateView.createAlternateViewFromString(
>  "Here is an embedded image. <img src=cid:barcode>", null, "text/html");
> 
>  // Create the LinkedResource (embedded image) and Add the LinkedResource to the appropriate view
>  LinkedResource barcode = new LinkedResource("1.jpg", Image.JPEG);
>  barcode.setContentId("barcode");
> 
>  eml.getLinkedResources().addItem(barcode);
>  eml.getAlternateViews().addItem(plainView);
>  eml.getAlternateViews().addItem(htmlView);
> 
>  eml.save("EmbeddedImage_out.msg", SaveOptions.getDefaultMsgUnicode());
