[Evolution-hackers] Debugging messages in Evolution

2006-08-10 Thread Matthew Barnes
What is the policy on using g_debug() in Evolution code?

Is it discouraged?  Is there an alternate API that I should be using?

I'm working on a patch for an Evolution plug-in and would like to add
debugging messages at key places in the logic.  Normally I would use the
logging facilities provided by GLib, but Evolution does not seem to
provide a mechanism for turning on and off g_debug() messages.  They are
always displayed in the terminal.

On a related note, Evolution's --debug command-line option seems a bit
hokey to me.  I would expect debug-level messages to be turned OFF
unless this option is explicitly given.  If the user needs to redirect
messages to a file, he/she should use the facilities provided by the
shell.  e.g. evolution --debug > log 2>&1

Perhaps I'm making too many assumptions about Evolution's design.

Thanks,
Matthew Barnes

any additional documentation is most appreciated!
matthew already posted about gtk-doc which would be imo the best way to
do this. i'd prefer to have a bug report for each component and to
attach patches (cvs diff -pu) to them.

thanks a lot for coming up with this,

as you already noted, being a newbie and trying to code on evolution is
very hard, therefore any additional documentation is highly appreciated!

That certainly does the trick, but a generic utility function would have
been nice.

[Evolution-hackers] Camel: Recommended way to reload folder summary?

2006-08-10 Thread Jules Colding
Hi,

This is rather unusual, but I need a good way of reloading the folder
summary from file for a CamelFolder. Any recommended utility function(s)
to do that?

Or should I just unref the summary and then use
camel_folder_summary_load()?

Thanks,
  jules
