class CContactRemoteView

Detailed Description

An instantiable remote contact view class.

CContactViewBase_Reserved_1 ( TFunction, TAny * )

TAny *CContactViewBase_Reserved_1(TFunctionaFunction,
TAny *aParams
)
This is a reserved virtual exported function that is used for BC proofing against present and future additions of new exported virtual functions.
Parameters
aFunctionAn enum value that identifies which helper function is called.
aParamsParameters to the helper function being called.
Return Value
Any return values of the helper function called from this function or NULL.
Capability
ReadUserData

GetSortOrderL ( RContactViewSortOrder & )

IMPORT_C voidGetSortOrderL(RContactViewSortOrder &aSortOrder)

Gets the server side view's sort order, as set in the NewL() function.

Parameters
aSortOrderOn return, the sort order for the server side view.
Capability
ReadUserData

NewL ( MContactViewObserver &, const CContactDatabase &, const RContactViewSortOrder &, TContactViewPreferences )

IMPORT_C CContactRemoteView *NewL(MContactViewObserver &aObserver,
const CContactDatabase &aDb,
const RContactViewSortOrder &aSortOrder,
TContactViewPreferencesaContactTypes
)[static]

Allocates and constructs a remote contact view object.

This function causes a new local view object to be created in the contacts server, unless one already exists with the specified view preferences and sort order. In that case, this client is given shared access to it.

Starts the active notifier, so that this view receives change events from the server side view object. These change events are in turn passed to this view's observers.

Parameters
aObserverAn observer that receives notifications when this view is ready for use and when changes take place in it. The observer receives a TContactViewEvent::EReady event when the view is ready. An attempt to use the view before this notification causes a panic.
aDbThe underlying database containing the contact items.
aSortOrderSpecifies the fields to use to sort the items in the server side view.
aContactTypesSpecifies which types of contact items should be included in the view and the behaviour for items that do not have content in any of the fields specified in the sort order.
Return Value
The newly constructed remote view object.
Capability
ReadUserData

NewL ( MContactViewObserver &, const CContactDatabase &, const RContactViewSortOrder &, TContactViewPreferences, const TDesC8 & )

IMPORT_C CContactRemoteView *NewL(MContactViewObserver &aObserver,
const CContactDatabase &aDb,
const RContactViewSortOrder &aSortOrder,
TContactViewPreferencesaContactTypes,
const TDesC8 &aSortPluginName
)[static]

Allocates and constructs a remote contact view object.

This function causes a new local view object to be created in the contacts server, unless one already exists with the specified view preferences and sort order. In that case, this client is given shared access to it.

Starts the active notifier, so that this view receives change events from the server side view object. These change events are in turn passed to this view's observers.

Parameters
aObserverAn observer that receives notifications when this view is ready for use and when changes take place in it. The observer receives a TContactViewEvent::EReady event when the view is ready. An attempt to use the view before this notification causes a panic.
aDbThe underlying database containing the contact items.
aSortOrderSpecifies the fields to use to sort the items in the server side view.
aContactTypesSpecifies which types of contact items should be included in the view and the behaviour for items that do not have content in any of the fields specified in the sort order.
aSortPluginNameSpecifies a plug-in that will be used to compare view contacts when the the view is sorted. This name is used by ECOM to select the plugin, and is matched with the "default_data" of all ECOM plugins that support the required interface.
Return Value
The newly constructed remote view object.
