Re: [bme-develop] Final BeMSN Release Progress

[Sir M. <obe...@ho...>]

Hi guys,

I've tested my hotmail code and it works! it generates a html file that can 
sign in to hotmail! But we have some problems in the program structure! 
first thing is the password! we need it to log in to hotmail but it's stored 
nowhere!

Secondly we get a bunch of URL information from the hotmail server, see 
http://www.hypothetic.org/docs/msn/notification/miscellaneous.php, I need 
some of those....now they are hardcoded into the program....so where do we 
store them?

Thirdly, right now I can only open hotmail messages if I get a initial mail 
message...but that's send only when you've unread mails....so we should 
figure out how to login without getting that message!

Fourthly, the code is a real mess now! I don't like the place where the mail 
code is stored(and especially the information): mailview contains mail info, 
and the mail handling code is placed in BmeApp...I don't like this! we 
should make it more flexible....

because we have a lot of protocol information and don't know where to store 
it I suggest making a class for it that we can query....Protocol or 
smth....or does anyone have a better idea! I think I will also change the 
profile info to a map structure....but leave it some time as it is!(it works 
now)

I really like to get started on changing the contact info classes as this is 
also needed for the hotmail integration(password)....I suggest making four 
new classes...
-two data classes: Contact and User(derives from contact,stores the 
password), these classes make it possible to cache contacts and users!
-a ContactItem class, this is the list item that draws the contacts
-a ListProducer class or smth that takes the Contact classes and turns them 
into corresponding ContactItem classes and puts them in a 
BOutlineListView(groups included)

what do you think about all of this?

regards,

Tim
