Hi All,
I am Ramakrishna working as a developer in Nokia.
I have added a new object - AgAccountService to accounts-glib.
Below is a short summary for need of this new object.
Current APIs in accounts-glib to access account service setting could be
made much simpler.
Current API design:
// get the username from the global settings
username = account->value("username");
enabled = account->enabled();
// get some e-mail settings
account->selectService(Service("gmail"));
imapServer = account->value("server");
imapPort = account->value("port");
enabled = account->enabled();
With the above design, client has to select the service before it get/set
the value. Risk is if the client misses calling selectService() method, it
can get wrong value.
The new AgAccountService class solves this overhead as shown below.
accountService = new AccountService(account, Service("gmail"));
imapServer = accountService->value("server");
imapPort = accountService->value("port");
// the next line returns true only if the account is enabled *and* the
// "gmail" service is enabled on it
emailEnabled = accountService->enabled();
I have implemented the accounts-glib part of code to support the above
design.
Kindly review the code which is pushed on to a branch "account-service-impl"
and pls provide ur inputs.

With Regards,
Rama
