Description

The OssoABookAggregator merges information from multiple EBook instances into one single view. One of the books is considered the master address book, the other books ("rosters") provide dynamic presence information.

Flags representing the current state of an aggregator

OSSO_ABOOK_AGGREGATOR_PENDING the aggregator is not yet running
OSSO_ABOOK_AGGREGATOR_RUNNING the aggregator is running
OSSO_ABOOK_AGGREGATOR_MASTERS_READY the master contacts are ready
OSSO_ABOOK_AGGREGATOR_ROSTERS_READY the roster contacts are ready

A function that can be used to select or reject a contact.

contact : a contact to operate on
user_data : additional user data passed to the function

OssoABookAggregator

typedef struct _OssoABookAggregator OssoABookAggregator;

All the fields of this structure are private to the object's implementation and should never be accessed directly.

                                                         GError **error);

Creates a new OssoABookAggregator on top of book.

error : a return location for errors
Returns : A newly allocated OssoABookAggregator, or NULL on error.

osso_abook_aggregator_new_with_view ()

OssoABookRoster*    osso_abook_aggregator_new_with_view (EBookView *view);

Creates a new OssoABookAggregator on top of view. Usually it is simpler to call osso_abook_aggregator_new_with_query() or osso_abook_aggregator_new(), since those functions handle the burden of opening the EBook and the EBookView asynchronously.

view : the EBookView providing contacts
Returns : A newly allocated OssoABookAggregator.

Lists all master contacts currently known by the aggregator and matching the requested uid. When uid directly matches a master contact, only this contact is returned. When uid matches an attached roster contact all of its master contacts are returned.

aggregator : a OssoABookAggregator
uid : the contact's UID
Returns : A newly allocated list of OssoABookContact instances. The contents of the list are owned by aggregator, but the list itself must be freed with g_list_free().
