libwbxml 0.10.8 release notes

Download:https://sourceforge.net/projects/libwbxml/files/libwbxml/0.10.8/

Minor Changes
=============

  - Added a fix for the broken vFormat handling in the SyncML
    specification. All LFs are replaced by CRLFs in every vFormat
    object inside a SyncML message (ticket #38).
  - Added Nokia ConML support (ticket #35).
    There is no public documentation available from Nokia. The
    transformation tables were created from sniffed WBXML documents.
    The patch was supplied by Anton D. Kachalov.

Internal Changes
================

  - Removed OMA DM tests because the OMA did not grant a permission
    for the inclusion (ticket #36).

Special thanks goes to Anton D. Kachalov who added the Nokia ConML support.

Best regards

Michael

It's good that 0.22 users post here, so that people realize that
0.22 is still needed.  But to be honest, there is little possibility
that timezone support will be improved in 0.22.

I believe that 0.39 is in the Debian unstable tree.  So you could try
grabbing the source packages, and compiling them to .debs yourself.

I'm not sure if that would be easier than compiling from tarball or not.

Hello Chris,

thanks for your answer. Now I know that there are still some souls
around who read this list. It has become very quiet, I was beginning to
worry if it was still active.

I hope they fix it very fast, because now that KPilot has become
abandoned and unsupported, all of us "old-fashioned" Palm users need
OpenSync really badly. Right now, I am feeling like back in the stone
age again: I have to synchronize my Palm and my Linux desktop by hand,
because right now there is *no* synching software that works 	faultless,
without messing up my calendars.

I'm sure you can imagine how frustrating this is. And it gets even more
frustrating every time Windows users look at you with this kind of pity
in their faces...

Unfortunately, this is the only version available for my system. I tried
to compile version 0.39 but I failed. :-(

It seems to me, compiling OpenSync is much more complicated than
compiling a Linux kernel. The scripts that should do the trick are very
old and they don't work on my system (KUbuntu 9.10). I am not very much
into developing software, so I can't really tell why they don't work. I
guess it must be some dependencies that don't match, but how do you
solve dependencies for a script of that age?

If anyone has a working script, that downloads and compiles OpenSync on
(K)Ubuntu9.10 or if anyone even has a working package (.deb) for this
system, I would very much appreciate a copy of it.

Re: [Opensync-users] Timezone trouble

[Chris F. <cd...@fo...>]

Hi Wolfgang,

I don't know the answer to your specific query, but I do recall that
timezone support is weak... if not in the library itself, then sometimes
in the plugins.

Especially in 0.22.

I don't know of a way to do this.  To my knowledge, the engine only asks
if there is a conflict.

Not really on 0.22.  Any development would most likely be on 0.3x, but
that is slow as well.

[Opensync-users] Confirming sync of each record?

[Malte G. <mal...@gm...>]

Hi there,

using OpenSync 0.22, does it allow to confirm the synchronization of each and 
every record? Sometimes I want to sync only a certain record and it would be 
nice to be able to confirm the sync of this specific record with a "no".

Regards
Malte

[Opensync-users] Timezone trouble

[Wolfgang K. <kle...@we...>]

I am still trying to make my Palm and my KDE Desktop / Mozilla Lightning
work together. I had some success in setting up opensync to sync kde-pim
and my Palm, but still I encounter some serious problems, one of which
is concerning timezone info: each time I sync, the timezone ID is
deleted from the local vcal file.

When I enter a new event, there is a timezone info included:

BEGIN:VEVENT
...
DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20100402T173000Z
DTEND;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20100402T210000Z
END:VEVENT


After synchronizing, the same event will look like this:

BEGIN:VEVENT
...
DTSTART:20100402T173000Z
DTEND:20100402T210000Z
END:VEVENT

The timezone info has been deleted and this event will be shifted one
hour. Strangely, this does not happen to every event in calendar: only
repeating events are affected when they cross the days when daylight
saving time starts or ends.

Has any one else noticed this? Is this a know problem? If so: is there a
patch available and will this be fixed in the next release?

This happens with OpenSync 0.22. openSUSE provides packages for OpenSync 0.38. 
Though being unstable branch, should I try this?

[Opensync-users] msynctool does not finish

[Malte G. <mal...@gm...>]

Hello,

I am now able to sync my Nokia N97 with Korganizier, yeeaahhhh :-)

I use these plugins: syncml-obex and file-sync.

When I issue "msynctool --sync N97 everyhting is fine, but, after many seconds, 
the command does not come to an end... I pressed ctrl-c to end it. Why did it 
not end? Below you can see the full output until I pressed ctrl-c.

Of course I now have a lock file left in ~/.opensync.... I hope the files in 
~/.opensync did not get damaged now after ending msynctool the hard way...

Ok, I solved this issue. First I had to enable "Contacts" in the sync profile 
on the phone and second this seems to be case sensitive, thus the right 
command has to be

syncml-obex-client -u 0 --slow-sync text/x-vcard Contacts --wbxml 
--identifier "PC Suite"

"Contacts" with a big C.

[Opensync-users] Nokia E52 - any success?

[Andreas B. <an...@bo...>]

Hi,

...I tried to sync my NOkia E52 using mysnctool (file-sync and syncml-obex). 
No success :( (I tried both, opensync 0.22 and 0.39). 0.22 worked at least for 
my E50, which I had before.

Before I start digging deeper - is there anybody out there successfully 
syncing a E52 (obex/http) - opensync 0.22 or 0.39 - doesn't matter...


Thanks,

Andy

But I get only these messages:

Thanx in advance

[Opensync-users] List of options

[Wolfgang K. <kle...@we...>]

Hello!

I am looking for a list of valid options to use in the conf files,
especially palm-sync.conf. I searched the project's homepage, but sadly
I haven't found any such list.

The thing I need to know most urgently is how to put the command line
option "--conflict n" into a conf file, because without this options my
calenders will not be synchronized at all.

Thanks in advance.

Re: [Opensync-users] Replacing my phone: what syncs with OpenSync today?

[Bjoern R. <bjo...@go...>]

I haven't tested that yet but because the N900 uses eds as storage backend
for e.g. contacts it should already be possible to use the evo-sync plugin.
I did take a look at the N900 api some days ago and it should be possible to
use the eds api directly without the libosso-abook wrapper. If you are going
to try it please send some feedback to the list.

I will be more than glad if the plugin for the N900 comes into play. I have

[Opensync-users] Two little problems with Opensync

[Wolfgang K. <kle...@we...>]

Hello,

I am trying to set up Opensync to synchronize my Palm and multiple
calender files. I can synchronize my Palm and Lightning calendar, but
there are two things I haven't been able to realize:

Looking at the howto and the manual, it should be possible to merge
multiple calenders into one while synchronizing. So, if I set up the
sunbird-sync.conf like this:

<config>
<file deletedaysold="14" path="/path/to/mycalender.ics"  />
<webdav url="http://www.somewhere.org/remotecalender.ics"  />
</config>

it should read entries from both files and put them onto my Palm. But if
I try this, only mycalender.ics is synchronized to my Palm.

What is the reason for this? Is it, because I don't have write access to
the remote calendar, or did I misunderstand the whole thing completely?

The second little problem I'm facing is concerning the socket address:
if I try to use an actual device file for accessing the Palm, Opensync
doesn't work. I have to use either "net:" or "usb:" in order to synch
the PDA:

	<sockaddr>usb:</sockaddr>

But I would like to use something like

	<sockaddr>/dev/ttyUSB1</sockaddr>

because I have two PDAs that need to be synchronized independently.


Can anyone help me with these two little problems, please? Thanks in
advance.

Bjoern, I usually donate to working projects but if a USD $20 donation
would help speed along the Akonadi-Opensync plugin then just let me
know your Paypal address. I know USD $20 is not much and in no way do
I mean to imply that it would be to pay for coding time. Rather, I
mean it as a way of saying thanks for the work that you are doing for
the community.

Actually, I think that I did once donate to Opensync some years ago.
After that was the reason that I started only donating to projects
with useful code!

I see, thanks. I just got the new phone: it is an N86.

What would writing a plugin involve? I am not a programmer, so I doubt
that I can be of any help but if you think otherwise than I will
gladly lend any assistance that I can.

I guess it depends more on the OpenSync team because to most KDE
developers aren't satisfied with opensync. But as a opensync developer
and my kde-pim related job I am really sure that there will be a akonadi
and N900 sync plugin in some month. It only depends on my workload and
the free time that I can spend on OpenSync. If anybody else is
interested in developing a akonadi plugin the OpenSync team would be
glad to help of course too.

I've used an N97 for a few months, it is a solid phone. Symbian S60rev5 based.
(I am switching for other reasons to htc touch pro2 and then to N900.)

Note that the akonadi opensync resource is in flux as far as I know. It is 
probably relatively easy to get it fixed again, but a few weeks ago people 
assured me that it is broken so far. So you should check into that question,
which is independ of the phone.

I've tried the following libraries from opensync:
 libwbxml-0.10.7
 libsyncml-0.5.4
and was successful to export my contacts once, as reported to this list
in November.

I do not have the phone in my pocket anymore. So it really depends on the 
questions if I can help, because my time is very limited, but you can try and 
I see what I can answer. No promisses. :)

[Opensync-users] Replacing my phone: what syncs with OpenSync today?

[Dotan C. <dot...@gm...>]

First of all, I see that the pace of development has quickened, going
by the timeline:
http://www.opensync.org/timeline

So, congratulations on resuming regular development! I have seen the
Device Compatibility List but I understand it to be outdated, refer to
an old branch (0.2x) and unmaintained. Therefore I ask:

My mobile provider is giving me the oportunity to upgrade to one of
the following devices:
Nokia n85
Nokia n97
Sony-Erickson w995

I need to sync contacts and calendar with the KDE-PIM suite (KDE 4.4
soon, with the new Kaddressbook and Akonadi). The language is not
ascii based, so it will need to support unicode characters. Which
device is preferable for syncing? I can wait a few weeks for the 0.4x
branch to stabilize, but I must know which device is preferable.
Thanks.

An aside: if anybody here owns the N85 or N97 I would like to ask some
questions about the phone off-list. Please contact me off-list if I
can bother you with some questions. Thanks.

[Opensync-users] Trying to sync Samsung B2100 via Bluetooth

[fmathis <mat...@gm...>]

Hi!

I am desperately trying to connect my synchronize my Samsung B2100 using
OpenSync. I am using the "standard" packages of karmic and added the
multisync .92 GUI and the needed plugins...

I followed these instructions:
http://www.opensync.org/wiki/peers/samsung/sghd600

And also tried out other specifications in the configuration file (channels,
identifiers and names for contacts etc.).

For any channel (e.g. dial-up network, OBEX File Transfer) except for
channel 6 (Object Push) I get the following answer from the msynctool:

Synchronizing group "test" 
Member 1 of type file-sync just connected
Member 2 of type syncml-obex-client had an error while connecting: Bluetooth
connect error
Member 1 of type file-sync just disconnected
All clients have disconnected
The sync failed: Unable to connect one of the members
Error while synchronizing: Unable to connect one of the members

For channel 6 I get a different error message:

Synchronizing group "test" 
Member 1 of type file-sync just connected
Member 2 of type syncml-obex-client had an error while connecting: Link
Error: 0x0
Member 1 of type file-sync just disconnected
All clients have disconnected
The sync failed: Unable to connect one of the members
Error while synchronizing: Unable to connect one of the members

So I guess this might be the right channel, but other things are going wrong
now..?

The sdptool answer is:

Anybody got any success with B2100 or other Samsung phones? Which
specifications do I need to make? Do I need to use a newer version of
opensync? 

I would apreciate any help!
Mathis

[Opensync-users] Problems syncing Evolution 2.24 with Nokia E63

[Oscar A. V. <os...@va...>]

After lots of lost sleep, I've got a semi-functional setup to sync
Evolution 2.24 with my Nokia E63

Fedora 10 packages used:
msynctool-0.36-1
libsyncml-0.4.5-3
libopensync-0.36-3
libopensync-plugin-vformat-0.36
libopensync-plugin-syncml-0.35-4
libopensync-plugin-evolution2-0.36-1
libopensync-plugin-python-0.36-1 (I believe it's not needed)
libopensync-plugin-moto-0.36-1 (from efforts with a prior phone)

Configuration:

Objtypes for the group:
	event: Enabled
	contact: Enabled

Problems syncing:

     1. Calendar won't sync, only Contacts.
     2. After the initial sync, there is a conflict with every contact
        on subsequent syncs. I have to sync with the --conflict option.
     3. I get frequent 'AttributeError: get_sync_info' when configuring
        the plugins

Tips and comments will be greatly appreciated.

Re: [Opensync-users] Comparison between OpenSync and SyncEvolution

I describe the SyncEvolution approach as "from the ground up": start
with something that can be solved, do it well and release, then continue
with the next problem. I started with a SyncML client for EDS. Mac OS X
Address Book was added later. A backend for XMLRPC and the Maemo
calendar API were written by contributors. As of this weekend, there's
also a rudimentary Akonadi backend. For 1.0, we add SyncML server
support. Non-SyncML protocols might come once that works.

I think the way towards non-SyncML protocols like PBAP is to wrap them
in a backend and talk to the central server via SyncML as the
SyncEvolution-internal protocol.

Correct. That prevents the "wrap other protocols" approach described
above. But this is purely a simplification of the implementation, not a
conceptual problem. We'll add it once it becomes necessary. The same
applies to out-of-process backends.
