Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-497:
----------------------------------------

Hi Ahmet,

This patch is necessary and helpful but not sufficient.  The things missing are:

(1) We probably want to distinguish between Lists and Libraries in the UI 
rules, in order to be able to specify that we want one or the other.
(2) We need to add code to handle a list row.  Your fileStream.addFile() method 
call simply adds a URL which I hope describes a list row to the queue.  When it 
is pulled from the queue, the connector method 
SharePointRepository.processDocuments() will be called on it, and must do the 
right thing given that there is actually no document.  So probably you are not 
seeing any indexing take place because that code can't find a document.

I will be creating a branch (CONNECTORS-497) for this ticket shortly and will 
be working on it a bit today, time permitting.  I'll pull in your changes to 
the branch.

> Lists are similar to libraries, but without documents.  We still should be
