how hard would it be to impliment the inbox/mailing API ?

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Not hard, I just haven't done it yet, as I want to polish what's there so I can release a first version. :)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Well, second post, deleted my first one :)

I also tried to create a facebook client some time ago. But the problem I had was to decide which technology I should use:
- Plain Qt?
- Qml?
- Dui (Harmattan UI Framework)?
- uiemo (UI Extensions for Mobile)?

Did you decide for one way? So if you also can't decide which one to use, the best way would be (like in every better project): Separate the gui from the "core". If the core is stable, usable and contains models and everything scriptable and QObject'ed, the gui could be done by someone who has knowledge of ui design and bling bling (I don't have, my interfaces are boring ;) )
In my opinion doing the gui with Qml is less work than with plain Qt.

Looking forward to see your results. If you need any help, I may help you out.

Edit: I've already played around with a simple friends list using Qml (I think it should compile with the 4.7 technology preview). It's commited next to your QFacebookConnect clone (http://gitorious.org/~gri/qfacebookc...er/facebookqml). Sorry for not having any screenshots, the code is not much and boring ...

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Right. I've just finished some new code for the list (so it's not so unbearably slow) and it's almost tolerable now. I've a few more tricks to play and then I'm pretty much ready for testing.

Maebook sounds good

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Shouldn't it be called "Meebook"

/sarcasm (or am i?? ;) )

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Hah! Fantastic to run into you here, I saw your work, and am also using QFacebookConnect I'm using (slightly patched atm, I really need to submit MRs although I am not certain the original author is still interested).

I am not using QML since it's not really easy to use regular UI elements, which is something I want to do. I also don't want to rely on Qt 4.7+ - at least not at this point.

I'm not using DUI since, to be frank, it seems like a case of NIH syndrome and I'm also not particularly a fan of the code. uiemo doesn't seem quite so bad, but I still don't see what is wrong with plain Qt, so that's what I'm using (if it works for every other platform in the world, why do we need another UI tookit just for mobile? I thought Hildon taught enough lessons there - but this is a topic for another thread.)

I look forward to getting help/contributions from everyone going forward - but I'm not quite ready *yet*. Still have a few annoying issues which I need to get solved before I'm ready to open this to wider testing (and more bug reports :P)
