The wiring has already been outlined with > SearchCommandParser in SearchCommand returning a SearchTerm implementation. > All good so far. > I need to implement a solution for a small number of search keys in order to > allow my IMAP server to be accessed by an Apple Mail.app client. (Not sure > when I'll find the time so opening a JIRA rather than discussing on list.) > Implementing the complete Search command specification is likely to be time > consuming. However, the specification naturally breaks down into the > composite application of a number of search keys. So, it should be possible > to factor the design so that each search key implementation could be > implemented in isolation. This would allow a partial implementation of the > most commonly used search terms to be build up over time. > Opinions? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
