CAMEL_URL_PART_PATH_DIR

#define CAMEL_URL_PART_PATH_DIR  (1 << 6)

CAMEL_PROVIDER_ALLOWS()

#define             CAMEL_PROVIDER_ALLOWS(prov, flags)

CAMEL_PROVIDER_NEEDS()

#define             CAMEL_PROVIDER_NEEDS(prov, flags)

CAMEL_PROVIDER_HIDDEN()

#define             CAMEL_PROVIDER_HIDDEN(prov, flags)

CAMEL_PROVIDER_IS_STORE_AND_TRANSPORT()

#define             CAMEL_PROVIDER_IS_STORE_AND_TRANSPORT(provider)

CamelProviderAutoDetectFunc ()

gint
(*CamelProviderAutoDetectFunc) (CamelURL *url,
                                GHashTable **auto_detected,
                                GError **error);

camel_provider_init ()

void
camel_provider_init (void);

Initialize the Camel provider system by reading in the .urls files in the provider directory and creating a hash table mapping URLs to module names.

A .urls file has the same initial prefix as the shared library it correspond to, and consists of a series of lines containing the URL protocols that that library handles.

TODO: This should be pathed? TODO: This should be plugin-d?


camel_provider_load ()

gboolean
camel_provider_load (const gchar *path,
                     GError **error);

Loads the provider at path , and calls its initialization function, passing session as an argument. The provider should then register itself with session .

Parameters

path

the path to a shared library

 

error

return location for a GError, or NULL

 

Returns

TRUE on success, FALSE on failure


camel_provider_register ()

void
camel_provider_register (CamelProvider *provider);

Registers a provider.

Parameters

provider

provider object

 

camel_provider_list ()

GList *
camel_provider_list (gboolean load);

This returns a list of available providers. If load is TRUE, it will first load in all available providers that haven't yet been loaded.

Free the returned list with g_list_free(). The CamelProvider structs in the list are owned by Camel and should not be modified or freed.

Parameters

load

whether or not to load in providers that are not already loaded

 

Returns

a GList of CamelProvider structs


camel_provider_get ()

CamelProvider *
camel_provider_get (const gchar *protocol,
                    GError **error);

Returns the registered CamelProvider for protocol , loading it from disk if necessary. If no CamelProvider can be found for protocol , or the provider module fails to load, the function sets error and returns NULL.

The returned CamelProvider is owned by Camel and should not be modified or freed.

Parameters

protocol

a CamelProvider protocol name

 

error

return location for a GError, or NULL

 

Returns

a CamelProvider for protocol, or NULL


camel_provider_module_init ()

void
camel_provider_module_init (void);

camel_provider_auto_detect ()

gint
camel_provider_auto_detect (CamelProvider *provider,
                            CamelURL *url,
                            GHashTable **auto_detected,
                            GError **error);

After filling in the standard Username/Hostname/Port/Path settings (which must be set in url ), if the provider supports it, you may wish to have the provider auto-detect further settings based on the aformentioned settings.

If the provider does not support auto-detection, auto_detected will be set to NULL. Otherwise the provider will attempt to auto-detect whatever it can and file them into auto_detected . If for some reason it cannot auto-detect anything (not enough information provided in url ?) then auto_detected will be set to NULL and an exception may be set to explain why it failed.

Parameters

provider

camel provider

 

url

a CamelURL

 

auto_detected

output hash table of auto-detected values

 

error

return location for a GError, or NULL

 

Returns

0 on success or -1 on fail.

CAMEL_PROVIDER_IS_REMOTE

Provider works with remote data.

 

CAMEL_PROVIDER_IS_LOCAL

Provider can be used as a backend for local folder tree folders. (Not just the opposite of CAMEL_PROVIDER_IS_REMOTE.)

 

CAMEL_PROVIDER_IS_EXTERNAL

Provider appears in the folder tree but is not created by the mail component.

 

CAMEL_PROVIDER_IS_SOURCE

Mail arrives there, so it should be offered as an option in the mail config dialog.

 

CAMEL_PROVIDER_IS_STORAGE

Mail is stored there. It will appear in the folder tree.

 

CAMEL_PROVIDER_SUPPORTS_SSL

   

CAMEL_PROVIDER_HAS_LICENSE

Provider configuration first needs the license to be accepted. (No longer used.)

 

CAMEL_PROVIDER_DISABLE_SENT_FOLDER

   

CAMEL_PROVIDER_ALLOW_REAL_TRASH_FOLDER

Provider may use a real trash folder instead of a virtual folder.

 

CAMEL_PROVIDER_ALLOW_REAL_JUNK_FOLDER

Provider may use a real junk folder instead of a virtual folder.

 

CAMEL_PROVIDER_SUPPORTS_MOBILE_DEVICES

Download limited set of emails instead of operating on full cache.

 

CAMEL_PROVIDER_SUPPORTS_BATCH_FETCH

Support to fetch messages in batch.

 

CAMEL_PROVIDER_SUPPORTS_PURGE_MESSAGE_CACHE

Support to remove oldest downloaded messages to conserve space.
