* PIM: new return value for SyncPeer(), new SyncProgress signal (FDO #63417)Patrick Ohly2013-05-16
| | | | | | | | | The SyncPeer() result is derived from the sync statistics. To have them available, the "sync done" signal must include the SyncReport. Start and end of a sync could already be detected; "modified" signals while a sync runs depends on a new signal inside the SyncContext when switching from one cycle to the next and at the end of the last one.
* PIM: support location = GEO property (FDO #60373)Patrick Ohly2013-02-26
| | | | | | | | | Exposed as "location" -> (lat, long) in the D-Bus bindings. Reading, writing and updating are supported. Depends on a folks release which has the patch which adds FolksLocationDetails. Default EDS test data now includes GEO. Several peers do not support it, which gets ignored by synccompare.
* PIM: support groups = CATEGORIES (FDO #60380)Patrick Ohly2013-02-26
| | | | | Allow reading and writing of groups (folks terminology), aka CATEGORIES in vCard.

* PIM: search for phone number in EDS directly during startupPatrick Ohly2012-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bypass folks while it still loads contacts and search for a phone number directly in EDS. This is necessary to ensure prompt responses for the caller ID lookup. Done with a StreamingView which translates EContacts into FolksIndividuals with the help of folks-eds = edsf. Combining these intermediate results and switching to the final results is done by a new MergeView class. A quiescence signal is emitted after receiving the EDS results and after folks is done. The first signal will be skipped when folks finishes first. The second signal will always be send, even if switching to folks did not change anything. Together with an artificial delay before folks is considered done, that approach make testing more reliable.
* PIM: limit number of search results (FDO #56142)Patrick Ohly2012-12-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A 'limit' search term with a number as parameter (formatted as string) can be added to a 'phone' or 'any-contains' search term to truncate the search results after a certain number of contacts. Example: Search([['any-contains', 'Joe'], ['limit', '10']]) => return the first 10 Joes. As with any other search, the resulting view will be updated if contact data changes. The limit must not be changed in a RefineSearch(). A 'limit' term may (but doesn't have to) be given. If it is given, its value must match the value set when creating the search. This limitation simplifies the implementation and its testing. The limitation could be removed if there is sufficient demand.
* Folks: fix writing contact, support photo and notesPatrick Ohly2012-12-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | folks and EDS do not support writing properties in parallel (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=652659). Must serialize setting of modified properties. Once that is done, we can also write photos ("is modified" check was missing, now done with some code refactoring) and notes (which somehow always end up being treated as "modified"). Set empty values if empty in D-Bus and non-empty in folks. Without that step, properties that were removed via D-Bus would not get removed inside folks. We really must create empty sets. A NULL pointer is not accepted by folks. Somehow it leads to internal "timeout" errors inside folks.

* PIM Manager: autotools + libfolks + APIPatrick Ohly2012-10-25
Initial step towards using SyncEvolution, PBAP and libfolks in the context of IVI (in-vehicle-infotainment): D-Bus API definition for the org._01.pim.contact API, --enable-dbus-service-pim, find libs, compile into syncevo-dbus-server and client-test. The only functional code at this time is the unit testing of libfolks, GValueCXX and libgee.
