Hi again.
I was hoping to use/test the opensync binding that is described here:
http://syncevolution.org/documentation/sync-opensync-bluetooth
The libsyncml build/install seemed work OK.
Alas, when I build and run obexd, it does not support syncevolution as
shown below. I am currently trying to reverse-engineer the code, and
work through prior discussions on this list, but any tips/pointers in
the interim would be appreciated.
I'm not sure if the obexd build is meant to be finding libsyncml or
syncevolution. If so, one thing I noticed is that when configure is
invoked, the output shows the following:
checking for GLIB... yes
checking for DBUS... yes
checking for dbus_watch_get_unix_fd in -ldbus-1... yes
checking for OPENOBEX... yes
checking for BLUEZ... yes
checking for EBOOK... yes
checking for GTHREAD... yes
i.e. there is no reference to either syncml or syncevolution. Also,
when I do an lld on obexd, there is no coupling to libsyncml or
syncevolution.
Tips appreciated.

Hi Jason,
The Obexd SyncML service patch is still pending to be accepted by the upstream.

Oh, OK.
So it's on your documentation site, but not available? Maybe I can dig
it up from the mailing list. Will try...
FYI, if the patches are available somewhere, I would be interested in
testing. I'm very keen to trial sync'ing my Nokia 6300 since I have
been using opensync for years with limited success.

If you are going to use SyncEvolution as the server to sync with your
Nokia phone, then you don't need obexd and opensync. That's the reverse
role I didn't covered in the documentation.
SyncEvolution as the server is still under development and testing, so be prepared
for various problems you may encounter. We have even not start test with Nokia phones
yet.
You can pull the latest code from obex branch and follow the steps:
1). Create a configuration with the template
syncevolution --configure --sync-property syncURL=PC Suite \
--sync-property username=test \
--sync-property password=test \
--sync-property clientURL="Your Nokia Phone Bluetooth Mac address" \
--sync-property PeerIsClient=1\
--template scheduleworld \
syncserver
2) try a sync via
syncevolution syncserver

I've added a note to the page as a warning that the instructions only
apply to bleeding edge software.
The same goes for the setup instructions posted by Congwu: we are still
debating the exact usage of the configure options for SyncEvolution as
SyncML server for phones.

OK, sounds like I'd have to pull off syncevolution head, find the
patches, and patch the correct version of obexd. Maybe I'll wait a
little longer until at least the patches hit obexd.
I will watch this list for any messages regarding progress, and I will
happily help with testing against my 6300.

It's exciting though, and tempting to try! It feels like a more
integrated solution - I mean, presumably synthesis is doing the heavy
lifting here, rather than libsyncml. I'll stay tuned, and may give it a
whirl if impatience gets the better of me...
Thanks again.

That would be very much welcome. I certainly didn't want to scare you
away, just avoid disappointments ;-)

Correct. This is also why I am hopeful that it'll work with quite a few
devices right away, once we have the setup and transport issues solved.
