Qt Versit API

Summary

The Qt Versit API allows you to import and export files that are commonly used for interchange of personal information, including vCard and iCalendar files. The Qt Versit API converts these formats into objects that can be used with the Qt Contacts and Qt Organizer APIs.

The Qt Mobility 1.1 release aims to add iCalendar support to complement the Qt Organizer module. The extra features planned are:

  • iCalendar support
  • plugins to allow device-wide, context-specific extension support
  • better support for "backup" versus "interchange" uses
  • better compatibility with some of the more standard extensions
  • vCard 4.0 support

Key features

  • Supports vCard 2.1 and 3.0 (maps to QContact objects)
  • Supports iCalendar 2.0 (maps to QOrganizerItem objects)
  • Allows import from and export to several types of sources (iodevice, bytearray etc)
  • Allows the client to add support for vCard extensions at runtime

Examples

There are no dedicated examples for the Qt Versit module (apart from documentation and code snippets). Instead, the example applications for the Qt Contacts and Qt Organizer modules use Qt Versit to allow easy import and export of the contact and organizer data.
