Re: [Evolution-hackers] concurrent modifications of items in GUI and EDS database

I'm currently thinking about synchronizing data with SyncEvolution in the background while the user is active with the Evolution UI. Some users already do that via cron jobs, but it is known to be problematic for several reasons, among them change tracking and concurrent editing of items. I started studing a plugin to do the sync on user request. I'm going to present my idea in another email just to have clearer threads.

[Evolution-hackers] Funambol sync from evolution
Hi all, I'm trying to develop a plugin to run configure and run syncevolution on user request. My idea is to have a plugin like the one that sync with the ipod adding an option on the context menu in calendar and addressbook. On user request the plugin will run syncevolution, displaing an error message if there is no syncevolution on the system and the log and all messages of syncevolution if there are logs or messages. I would like to try to develop it in python as I see that evolution is now capable of loading plugins written in this language, but it should be no problem in developing in C. Wich language do you suggest to use? TIA sc -- Stefano Canepa aka sc: s...@linux.it - http://www.stefanocanepa.it Three great virtues of a programmer: laziness, impatience and hubris.

The build itself works properly, right? Running your newly build Evolution fails, if I read your log correctly. Thanks for your help. You got it.

It wouldn't be hard to create and install a libsyncevolution.so which contains all the necessary logic to execute a sync. That might be easier than wrapping a command line tool. On the other hand, Genesis already does that quite successfully. OK, Patric. I'll checkout syncevolution code ASAP (tomorrow or on saturday) and starting finding how I to build such a library, this should be usefull for other projects, too.
