[fpc-pascal] RFD: CardDAV support library for FreePascal, call for ideas
Hello, since I have not found anything on CardDAV related/written in/for FreePascal/Lazarus, (haven't googled with Delphi keyword thou) I'd like to send out some smoke signals, asking which way would the support for this kind of interaction (dare not call it a protocol) would be best fitting into FreePascal/Lazarus world. CardDAV itself is an extension of WebDAV and itself has its own RFC (RFC6532). I myself am trying to write a client connecting via CardDAV to a compatible server (built into my CRM, eGroupware) to request search and read addressbook entries. (it was the developers of the CRM in question indicated to me that XMLRPC is dead and support for it will be removed when they get a chance - that's why I'm doing this.) So far I got as far as copy/pasting example XML from the RFC and got a valid response from server, using THTTPSend from Synapse. http://wiki.freepascal.org/XML_Tutorial (and particularly the second XML2Tree procedure from http://wiki.freepascal.org/XML_Tutorial#Populating_a_TreeView_with_XML, with some mod of mine to not pass a TTreeView but a TTreeNodes object into it instead) came in handy to understand the structure of it. There are certain advantages of CardDAV over XMLRPC, which this post is too short to contain ;) I intend to keep it very simple at first, as it's enough for my purpose, to the point that the XML elements+attributes would be coded just as string concatenating operations and validated using TXMLDocument from dom.pas. Seems like the more complicated elements of DOM level 3 will need DOM.pas modifications too. But I'd like to know, if there is interest in making it 'more sentient', e.g. as a TDataSource/TDataSet descendant directly talking to (reading, at first) DOM.pas's TXMLDocument/TDOMDocument, then to a THTMLSend or any such class of your liking? Please let me know your thoughts :) Kind Regards Lukasz ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

Re: [fpc-pascal] Re: StrUtils.RomanToInt oddities
My 2 cents on the backwards compatibility discussion. First: backwards compatibility must be broken if the old implementation is wrong. This seems obvious, but I have had discussions about that in the past when I corrected another conversion routine in fpc. Wether or not the current implenetation is wrong, is open for discussion. Breaking backwards compatibility for consistency with similar RTL behaviour is IMO not a bad thing. We have done so in th epast for Lazarus as well. As said before: given the expected number of users of this function, I weould consider doing it. For consistency we should also have a TryRomanToInt(S: String; out Value: Integer): Boolean; function. As stated before: Delphi compatibility does not seem to be apply here. My 2 cents on the strictness of the parsing. Since there are various, more or less accepted, rules, a strictness parameter could be added as an optional parameter to the function. It does not break consistency with other conversion functions, since they are hardly open for interpretation, and so they don't need such a thing. Strictness modes could be: - Strict: most strict set of rules (it does not accept numbers 3999, nor more than 3 repeats of the same numeral) - Relaxed: allows unlimited number of starting M, and allows up to 4 repeats of C, X and I. - DontCare: like current behaviour.
