Detailed Description

Proxy class providing a 1:1 mapping of the D-Bus interface "org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Connection.Interface.ContactInfo."


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface ( const QString busName,
const QString objectPath,
QObject parent = 0  
)

Creates a ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface associated with the given object on the session bus.

Parameters:
busName  Name of the service the object is on.

parent  Passed to the parent class constructor.
Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface ( const QDBusConnection connection,
const QString busName,
const QString objectPath,
QObject parent = 0  
)

Creates a ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface associated with the given object on the given bus.

Parameters:
connection  The bus via which the object can be reached.
busName  Name of the service the object is on.
objectPath  Path to the object on the service.
parent  Passed to the parent class constructor.
Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface ( Tp::DBusProxy proxy  ) 

Creates a ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface associated with the same object as the given proxy.

Parameters:
proxy  The proxy to use. It will also be the QObject::parent() for this object.
Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface ( const Tp::Client::ConnectionInterface mainInterface  )  [explicit]

Creates a ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface associated with the same object as the given proxy. Additionally, the created proxy will have the same parent as the given proxy.

Parameters:
mainInterface  The proxy to use.
Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface ( const Tp::Client::ConnectionInterface mainInterface,
QObject parent  
)

Creates a ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface associated with the same object as the given proxy. However, a different parent object can be specified.

Parameters:
mainInterface  The proxy to use.
parent  Passed to the parent class constructor.

Member Function Documentation

static QLatin1String Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::staticInterfaceName (  )  [inline, static]

Returns the name of the interface "org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Connection.Interface.ContactInfo", which this class represents.

Returns:
The D-Bus interface name.
Tp::PendingVariant* Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::requestPropertyContactInfoFlags (  )  const [inline]

Asynchronous getter for the remote object property ContactInfoFlags of type uint.

An integer representing the bitwise-OR of flags on this connection.

This property MAY change, without change notification, at any time before the connection moves to status Connection_Status_Connected. It MUST NOT change after that point.

Some XMPP servers, like Facebook Chat, do not allow the vCard to be changed (and so would not have the Can_Set flag). Whether the user's server is one of these cannot necessarily be detected until quite late in the connection process.

Returns:
A pending variant which will emit finished when the property has been retrieved.
Tp::PendingVariant* Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::requestPropertySupportedFields (  )  const [inline]

Asynchronous getter for the remote object property SupportedFields of type Tp::FieldSpecs.

A list of field specifications describing the kinds of fields which may be passed to SetContactInfo() . The empty list indicates that arbitrary vCard fields are permitted. This property SHOULD be the empty list, and be ignored by clients, if ContactInfoFlags does not contain the Can_Set flag.

For example, a protocol in which arbitrary vCards were stored as-is would set this property to the empty list. A protocol whose notion of contact information is one each of personal phone number, mobile phone number, location, email address and date of birth, with no attributes allowed on each piece of information, would set this property to (in Python-like syntax):

 [
   ('tel', ['type=home'], Parameters_Exact, 1),
   ('tel', ['type=cell'], Parameters_Exact, 1),
   ('adr', [], Parameters_Exact, 1),
   ('bday', [], Parameters_Exact, 1),
   ('email', ['type=internet'], Parameters_Exact, 1),
 ]

A protocol which allows users to specify up to four phone numbers, which may be labelled as personal and/or mobile, would set this property to [ ('tel', ['type=home', 'type=cell'], 0, 4), ].

Studying existing IM protocols shows that in practice protocols allow either a very restricted set of fields (such as MSN, which seems to correspond roughly to the largest example above), or something mapping 1:1 to a large subset of vCard (such as XMPP's XEP-0054).

This property MAY change, without change notification, at any time before the connection moves to status Connection_Status_Connected. It MUST NOT change after that point.

Some XMPP servers, like Google Talk, only allow a small subset of the "vcard-temp" protocol. Whether the user's server is one of these cannot be detected until quite late in the connection process.

Returns:
A pending variant which will emit finished when the property has been retrieved.
Tp::PendingVariantMap* Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::requestAllProperties (  )  const [inline]

Request all of the DBus properties on the interface.

Returns:
A pending variant map which will emit finished when the properties have been retrieved.
QDBusPendingReply<Tp::ContactInfoMap> Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::GetContactInfo ( const Tp::UIntList contacts,
int  timeout = -1  
) [inline, slot]

Begins a call to the D-Bus method GetContactInfo on the remote object.

Request information on several contacts at once. This SHOULD only return cached information, omitting handles for which no information is cached from the returned map.

Note that timeout is ignored as of now. It will be used once http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-11775 is fixed.

Parameters:
contacts  An array of handles representing contacts.
timeout  The timeout in milliseconds.
Returns:

A dictionary mapping contact handles to information, whose keys are the subset of the requested list of handles for which information was cached.

QDBusPendingReply Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::RefreshContactInfo ( const Tp::UIntList contacts,
int  timeout = -1  
) [inline, slot]

Begins a call to the D-Bus method RefreshContactInfo on the remote object.

Retrieve information for the given contact, requesting it from the network if an up-to-date version is not cached locally. This method SHOULD return immediately, emitting ContactInfoChanged when the contacts' updated contact information is returned. This method allows a client with cached contact information to update its cache after a number of days.

Note that timeout is ignored as of now. It will be used once http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-11775 is fixed.

Parameters:
contacts  Integer handles for contacts.
timeout  The timeout in milliseconds.
QDBusPendingReply<Tp::ContactInfoFieldList> Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::RequestContactInfo ( uint  contact,
int  timeout = -1  
) [inline, slot]

Begins a call to the D-Bus method RequestContactInfo on the remote object.

Retrieve information for a contact, requesting it from the network if it is not cached locally. This method is appropriate for an explicit user request to show a contact's information; it allows a UI to wait for the contact info to be returned.

Note that timeout is ignored as of now. It will be used once http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-11775 is fixed.

Parameters:
contact  An integer handle for a contact.
timeout  The timeout in milliseconds.
Returns:

Information about that contact.

QDBusPendingReply Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::SetContactInfo ( const Tp::ContactInfoFieldList contactInfo,
int  timeout = -1  
) [inline, slot]

Begins a call to the D-Bus method SetContactInfo on the remote object.

Set new contact information for this connection, replacing existing information. This method is only suppported if ContactInfoFlags contains Can_Set, and may only be passed fields conforming to SupportedFields.

Note that timeout is ignored as of now. It will be used once http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-11775 is fixed.

Parameters:
contactInfo  The new information to be set.
timeout  The timeout in milliseconds.
void Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::ContactInfoChanged ( uint  contact,
const Tp::ContactInfoFieldList contactInfo  
) [signal]

Represents the signal ContactInfoChanged on the remote object.

Emitted when a contact's information has changed or been received for the first time on this connection.

Parameters:
contact  An integer handle for the contact whose info has changed.
contactInfo  An array of fields representing information about this contact.
void Tp::Client::ConnectionInterfaceContactInfoInterface::invalidate ( Tp::DBusProxy proxy,
const QString error,
const QString message  
) [protected, virtual]

Reimplemented from Tp::AbstractInterface.
