Re: [Opensync-users] partial success on siemens sx1 (syncml)

[Don C. <don...@gm...>]

Hi again,

I've found a solution to the timeout-problem that works for me. I
changed the timeout values in opensync/opensync_plugin.c (libopensync)
from 60 to 120:
	//Set the default timeouts;
	plugin->info.timeouts.connect_timeout = 120;
	plugin->info.timeouts.sync_done_timeout = 120;
	plugin->info.timeouts.disconnect_timeout = 120;
	plugin->info.timeouts.get_changeinfo_timeout = 120;
	plugin->info.timeouts.get_data_timeout = 120;
	plugin->info.timeouts.commit_timeout = 120;
	plugin->info.timeouts.read_change_timeout = 120;
Maybe these values should not be hardcoded but configurable in the
plugin's config-file?

Next I have tried to sync my phone to evolution (2.6). It works quite
well, even new items can be written to the phone.
One problem: in evolutions calendar I have to open a calendar item to
see the text in "description", "summary" is empty. But in the
evo-calendar view only the "summary" would be shown. Maybe you could
add an option to the evolution2-plugin that allows to swap
"description" and "summary" in calendar items around? It could be a
switch in the config-file to enable or disable the swapping.
