Coding Style

|
|
=============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please use the coding style conventions from kdepim/kaddressbook/HACKING
|
||
|
|
if you want to commit your xxport plugin into the cvs.

Programming a XXPort Plugins
|
||
|
|
=============================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Implementing a new xxport plugin is quite easy. But for better understanding
|
||
|
|
you should know what happens during the import or export.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At first the modules are loaded by kaddressbook (or better said by the
|
||
|
|
xxportmanager class) and an instance of every modul is created.
|
||
|
|
In the constructor of a module, the methods createImportAction() and/or
|
||
|
|
createExportAction() should be called to register the import and/or
|
||
|
|
export gui items in the GUI menu.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now if the user selects one of the items, the xxportmanager searchs the proper
|
||
|
|
plugin.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the item was a export item, the manager do the following 2 steps:
|
||
|
|
1) check if the modul requires a sorted list of addresses
|
||
|
|
2) show a dialog where the user can select, which contacts shall be exported
|
||
|
|
and, if requested, which order the contacts shall have
|
||
|
|
Afterwards the exportContacts() method of the module is called with the
|
||
|
|
list of all contacts, the user filtered via the dialog.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the item was an import item, the importContacts() method of the proper
|
||
|
|
module is called directly.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To implement your own module you just need to call the createXXportAction()s
|
||
|
|
in the constructor and reimplement the importContacts() and/or exportContacts()
|
||
|
|
method... thats all :)
