[Opensync-users] Enabling transports in Libsyncml

[Matthew K. <ka...@fa...>]

Afternoon everyone.

I'm trying to build Libsyncml so that I can test syncml with my Nokia
6670.  Libsoup 2.2.91 has just been released into Debian unstable, so I
thought I'd give it a try.  Looking at the libsoup changelog, it seems
that this version would be sufficiently up to date so as to not require
patching.

However, when I configure libsyncml I get the following messages:

> The transports are:
>   Http Client:            Disabled
>   Http Server:            Disabled

Is this expected?

The Obex transports are also disabled, but I'm expecting this given that
openobex 1.1 is not yet in Debian.  I'm not bothered since I don't have
a USB lead, although I'd be very interested in bluetooth sync.

No. Did you install libsoup2.2-dev ?

I just tried compiling the latest SVN version with it myself.
./configure found it by itself and everything went smooth.

You need openobex for bluetooth syncing.

See my patch for adding bluetooth transport to libsyncml:
http://anders.ginandtonic.no/files/patch-libsyncml-bt.diff

I did not try it together with syncml-plugin yet, because I still have
problems with the basic syncml-obex-client to complete on my phone
(6680). Using both USB and bluetooth hangs the sync near the end. I
don't known enough about libsyncml to found out why and where.

Oh dear - how embarassing.  Had only installed libsoup, not libsoup-dev.

Compiles fine on this end with HTTP and Obex support.  I can't test it
though, since my HTTP server wouldn't be world-viewable and I don't have
a USB cable to check OBEX.  Maybe I'll buy one; looking forward to our
Bluetooth support maturing.

Well done everyone for getting us this far!
