Hmmmm... I think I need an example to grok this. :-) For the Barry opensync plugin, it needs to know 3 things: the PIN number of the device; whether to sync contacts, calendar, or both; and whether to enable debug output. On top of that, opensync needs to know what to sync that data source to. So the user will link that source with, say, Evolution, or maybe Google calendar, or both. How would this be handled by something automated, without storing a static config somewhere? Any by static config, I mean something that is saved to the hard disk, that once set, does not change without the user's permission. It can be anything, stored anywhere, and not even touched formally by the user. Thanks in advance for any insight. - Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.
