38 | ***************************************************** | ||

40 | After setting up everything, the following actions will | ||
41 | be performed when syncing: | ||
42 | User enables "remote pi-sync" on desktop. | ||
43 | User chooses "sync with configured desktop profile" on the Z. | ||
44 | Z sends sync request via network to configured IP/port/password. | ||
45 | KO/Pi on desktop detects sync request and syncs with KDE (configurable!). | ||
46 | A window pops up, that KO/Pi on desktop is in "remote syncing mode". | ||
47 | If a conflict occurs when syncing KO/PI<->KDE on the desktop, | ||
48 | automatically the newest entry is choosen. | ||
49 | (To avoid the need of user interaction) | ||
50 | KO/Pi on desktop sends synced file to Zaurus. | ||
51 | KO/Pi on desktop is in "waiting mode" to get synced file back. | ||
52 | Zaurus is syncing it's own calendar with the received file. | ||
53 | Here can be some user interaction needed, i.e. | ||
54 | if the sync profile is configured as | ||
55 | "ask for every entry on conflict" and a conflict occurs. | ||
56 | Zaurus sends back synced file to desktop. | ||
57 | Syncing on Zaurus is complete now. | ||
58 | KO/Pi on desktop gets back synced file. | ||
59 | KO/Pi on desktop removes all entries in its own calendar and | ||
60 | reloads the synced file. | ||
61 | KO/Pi on desktop syncs with KDE. | ||
62 | After syncing with KDE is finished, KO/Pi closes | ||
63 | the "remote syncing mode" window and displays | ||
64 | a "syncing complete" message in the headline. | ||
65 | |||
66 | The actual syncing KO/Pi on desktop <-> KDE is | ||
67 | performed by a small command line tool "kdecaldump", | ||
68 | which writes/reads the complete KDE calendar resources to | ||
69 | a file/from a file. | ||
70 | KO/Pi tags changed entries such that an unchanged entry | ||
71 | is not changed in KDE by kdecaldump. That is important for | ||
72 | calendar entries in KDE, stored in a "disconnected IMAP" calendar resource. | ||
73 | |||
74 | |||
75 | Same way is KA/Pi working. | ||
