Hi, is someone already working on a plugin for the kde address book? I'm planning to write such a plugin, if I get it managed to use the kde libraries from a gnome program. I know about kitchensync, the kde sync program, but at the moment multisync does support far more sync targets. In the future, it would be nice though, if both programs could talk to each other (via syncml?). Anyway, I got some questions / suggestions:
-What format does the syncengine expect for the vcards? My Siemens S55 sends vcard 2.1, but the kde addressbook's native format is vcard 3.0. -do I have to worry about merging the changes in vcards into the addressbook? Suppose I have an entry in both sync plugins. what happens if both plugins send this entry as modified to the sync engine? Am I right that it is the sync engines job to merge these two modified entries into one and to send this one to each of the plugins? This would mean that I don't have to worry at all about such issues in the plugin. If I get a vcard marked as modified from the sync engine, I simply replace the entry I stored in my addressbook with this one, right? -It would be nice if I could specify mappings between different fields in the vcards sent by the plugins. For example, my phone uses a different field to store to which group a contact belongs than kaddressbook. Is there some way to specify that two different fields correspond to each other when syncing? So, thats it for now... cheers Florian -- COMPUTERBILD 15/03: Premium-e-mail-Dienste im Test -------------------------------------------------- 1. GMX TopMail - Platz 1 und Testsieger! 2.
