[Opensync-devel] Problem with conversions that use objtype data (like in file-sync)

[Luiz A. D. de L. <lui...@gm...>]

Hello,

I'm getting a strange error on file-sync (and also in my ruby version
of it) on a simple files-to-files test:

Main sink of member 1 of type file-sync had an error: Unable to find
engine which can handle objtype data

According to http://www.opensync.org/wiki/glossary, "Conversion can
change the format of an object but never its type."
Is this still true?

While debuging, I found out that file-sync, plain and the conversions
between them (and also my ruby version of them), uses objtype =
'data'.
'data' must be some special wildcard objtype because its conversion
matches my data defined as 'contact'.
However at opensync/opensync/format/opensync_converter.c:222, it sets
the data objtype to match the converter one.

	osync_data_set_objtype(data,
osync_objformat_get_objtype(converter->target_format));

The result is that data, after conversion, gets the correct format
('plain') but uses an incorrect objtype ('data').
I guess the coverted data objtype should come from somewhere else,
copying same objtype from the original data.

Who is wrong? opensync? file-sync? myself :-)?

Thanks,
