This file has the code that logs into the contacts API and sends the requests to fetch the contacts - either all of them or from a specific date.
The function onGotContacts is the one which begins the parsing of the XML data returned by the Google Contacts API.

This file has the XML parser for the contacts data that you get from the previous file.

Great. I wish there is a Qt API for alarmd.
Almost all QT classes that might be long running have signals to indicate completion. So if you use signals intelligently, there should be no CPU usage by your app while "waiting" for a QTimer to fire.

tl;dr: Use a QTimer and quickly get to the more interesting bits :p

You do not need it, the C API will work.

Note thought that it is Maemo-specific.

A QTimer of 1000ms didn't affect my CPU much, so I guess it's light on processing/battery power :P

You are mostly right, but it was very late ;)

What I meant is that a daemon (QtService application) started from event.d (used in maemo) while booting will try to access for instance QContactManager.contacts() as root and not as user, resulting in many interesting errors.

The solution is to start the daemon as user (what I in the sleep deprived state I was in, called for user space), this is done by starting the daemon with the following command in event.d :

Code:
su -c '<path and name of your daemon>' -l user
After that everything should work as usual, with the exception of the missing GUI.

Thanks for the clarification and the event.d info.
