class CContactDatabase : public CBase |
A database of contact items.
Contact items can be added to and removed from the database and items in the database can be opened or read. To edit an item, it must first be opened. Changes to the item can then be committed using CommitContactL() (committing can only take place to an open item).
If the available disk space is less than 128 kilobytes then changes to the contact database cannot be started, and methods such as CreateL() or CommitContactL() will leave with a KErrDiskFull error. Less obviously OpenL() can also fail with KErrDiskFull when trying to update the system template.
Each item has an access count. An item cannot be fully deleted unless its access count is zero. This is to prevent items which have been synchronised with another contacts application from being deleted. Also, if the item is a template, it cannot be deleted if other items are based on it.
More than one contact database can exist on a phone, but there is a default contact database. Its filename is contacts.cdb. It can be moved between drives.
CContactDatabase implements searching and sorting and also provides separate phone number matching functions. These provide a fast way of indexing and looking up phone numbers, e.g. for looking up caller IDs on incoming calls.
The database owns speed dial information. This is a mapping between a single digit integer and a telephone number. There may be up to 9 speed dial telephone numbers; each of them belongs to a contact item in the database. If a contact item is deleted, its speed dial mapping is removed.
The following functions defined in class CContactDatabase are not supported. If called, they leave with KErrNotSupported.

) |
Returns an array of contact item IDs for all the contact items which may contain the specified telephone number in a telephone, fax or SMS type field.
The comparison method used is not exact. The number is compared starting from the right side of the number and the method returns an array of candidate matches. Punctuation (eg. spaces) and other alphabetic characters are ignored when comparing.
Additionally, if the contacts model phone parser (CNTPHONE.DLL) is available, then any DTMF digits are also excluded from the comparision.
Notes: Due to the way numbers are stored in the database, it is recommended that at least 7 match digits are specified even when matching a number containing fewer digits. Failure to follow this guideline may (depending on the database contents) mean that the function will not return the expected Contacts Id set.
const TDesC & aNumber | Phone number string. If the length of phone number string is greater than KCntMaxTextFieldLength then only the first KCntMaxTextFieldLength characters are used in the match. |

IMPORT_C CContactOpenOperation * | Open | ( | TRequestStatus & | aStatus, |
TThreadAccess | aAccess = ESingleThread | |||
) | [static] |
Opens the default contact database asynchronously.
The Contacts server is asked to prepare the database to be opened. This may include cleaning up incomplete writes from when the device was last switched off, or updating the database format.
If an error is encountered starting the asynchronous open the return value is NULL and the error is returned in the TRequestStatus parameter.
Errors from the asynchronous open include: KErrNotFound The database file was not found or it did not have the correct UIDs. KErrLocked The file is in use by another client. Other system wide error codes.
If the return value is not NULL the ownership of the CContactOpenOperation object is passed to the client. This may be deleted before the asynchronous open completes.
When the client supplied TRequestStatus is completed with KErrNone the TakeDatabase() method of CContactOpenOperation is called to pass ownership of the open database to the client.
TRequestStatus & aStatus | On return, the request status for the asynchronous phase request. The Open() action can fail with one of the system wide error codes. In this case, the CContactDatabase object cannot access the database and must be deleted. |

) | [static] |
Opens a named contact database asynchronously.
The Contacts server is asked to prepare the database to be opened. This may include cleaning up incomplete writes from when the device was last switched off, or updating the database format.
In v8.1, contact databases can be located in any directory on any writeable drive, and the format of the filename must include an absolute directory path such as c:\system\data\contacts.cdb.
From v9.0 onwards, contact databases can only be located in the correct data caged subdirectory. The filenames must have no path, for example c:contacts.cdb. The maximum length for the drive, filename and extension is 190 characters.
If an empty path is entered, it will be treated as a request to open the default contact database.
If an error is encountered starting the asynchronous open the return value is NULL and the error is returned in the TRequestStatus parameter.
Errors from the asynchronous open include: KErrNotFound The database file was not found or it did not have the correct UIDs. KErrLocked The file is in use by another client. KErrBadName The filename is invalid; for example it includes wildcard characters or the drive is missing. Other system wide error codes.
If the return value is not NULL the ownership of the CContactOpenOperation object is passed to the client. This may be deleted before the asynchronous open completes.
When the client supplied TRequestStatus is completed with KErrNone the TakeDatabase() method of CContactOpenOperation is called to pass ownership of the open database to the client.
const TDesC & aFileName | The filename of the database to open. |
TRequestStatus & aStatus | On return, the request status for the asynchronous phase request. The Open() action can fail with one of the system wide error codes. In this case the CContactDatabase object cannot access the database and must be deleted. |

IMPORT_C TInt | SetCurrentDatabase | ( | const TDesC & | aDatabase | ) | const |
Where there are multiple contact databases on a device, this function can be used to set a database as the current one.
Note: this function simply updates a file name which is stored by the contacts server and its use is optional. It is provided as part of current item functionality. In order to pass a current item from one contacts model client to another, the receiving client needs to be using the same database.
const TDesC & aDatabase | The path and filename of the current database. |
IMPORT_C void | SetCurrentItem | ( | const TContactItemId | aContactId | ) |
Sets the ID of the current item and persists it in the database. The current item is provided for use by clients who want to identify one contact item in the database as the currently selected item.

In v8.1 when copying the file is moved to \system\data on the specified drive, and if the destination file already exists it is replaced.
From v9.0 onwards the file copying goes to the correct data caged directory on the destination drive. If the destination file already exists the copy fails.
TDriveUnit aDriveUnit | The drive to which to move the database. |
TBool aCopy = ETrue | ETrue moves the existing file to the specified drive. Deletion of the source file will fail if it is in use. EFalse does not move the file. |
IMPORT_C void | SetDateFormatTextL | ( | const TDesC & | aFormat | ) |

IMPORT_C void | SetDbViewContactType | ( | const TUid | aUid | ) |
Sets the type of contact items to be included in sorted views of the database.
See also SortL() and SortByTypeL() .
This value is initialised to KUidContactItem when the database is opened. This means that all CContactItem-derived types (cards, non-system templates, groups, own cards) are included in database views.
const TUid aUid | Specifies a contact type. One of the following: KUidContactCard (contact cards), KUidContactGroup (contact item groups), KUidContactOwnCard (own cards), KUidContactCardTemplate (templates which are not system templates, in other words, which have been added to the database), KUidContactItem (all of the above) |
IMPORT_C void | SetFieldAsSpeedDialL | ( | CContactItem & | aItem, |
TInt | aFieldIndex, | |||
TInt | aSpeedDialPosition | |||
) |
Sets a field containing a telephone number as a speed dial field. The field is identified by aFieldIndex within the contact item aItem. It is assigned a speed dial position between 1 and 9 inclusive.
The field's speed dial and user added attributes are set and the appropriate UID (KUidSpeedDialXxx) is added to the field's content type. The changes are committed to the database.
Notes:
If an item's telephone number field has already been assigned to position aSpeedDialPosition, that item is updated so that the speed dial attribute is removed from its field and the speed dial field type UID is removed from the field's content type, before the new speed dial field is set.
The speed dial attribute can be tested for using the CContactItemField::IsSpeedDial() function.
The contact item passed to this function (aItem) must have been obtained using one of the variants of CContactDatabase::OpenContactL() . This is because it is modified and committed to the database by this function - no further commits are necessary.
CContactItem & aItem | The contact item containing the field to set as a speed dial field. |
TInt aFieldIndex | Index of a field in aItem's field set to set as a speed dial field. |

TContactSyncId aSyncId | This argument should be ignored by developers. |
const TTime & aSyncDate | The database's new last synchronised date/time. |
IMPORT_C void | SetOperationTimeOutL | ( | const TInt | aMicroSeconds | ) | const |
Sets the time out of operations on the database server.
This API allows the behaviour of the Contacts Model to be tuned for scenarios where clients either expect to encounter or know they will encounter operations failing primarily due to the database being locked.
Not all clients will find they need to use this API. By default the operation timeout is 1 second.
The timeout only needs to be set once per session. Multiple clients using the same database can specify independent values for the operation timeout.
const TInt aMicroSeconds | The operation timeout in microseconds. This timeout will only be applied to requests sent by clients of this database after this point in time. |
IMPORT_C void | SetOwnCardL | ( | const CContactItem & | aContact | ) |
Sets an existing contact item to be the database's current own card.
const CContactItem & aContact | The contact item to set as the database's current own card. It must already exist in the database. It cannot be a group or a template. |
IMPORT_C void | SetPrefTemplateL | ( | const CContactItem & | aContact | ) |
Sets the database's preferred template.
The preferred template's ID persists when the database is opened and closed. If the preferred template is subsequently deleted, the preferred template ID is set to KNullContactId.
const CContactItem & aContact | The contact card template to set as the database's preferred template. |
IMPORT_C void | SetSortedItemsList | ( | CContactIdArray * | aSortedItems, |

IMPORT_C void | SortByTypeL | ( | CArrayFix < TSortPref > * | aSortOrder | ) |
Sorts the database using the view type value set by SetDbViewContactType() . The database takes ownership of the sort order array passed in.
The sort uses the same logic as SortL() . The two functions have the same effect.
After calling this function, use CContactDatabase::SortedItemsL() to retrieve the sorted array of contact IDs.
void | SortDuplicatesL | ( | const CArrayFix < TSortPref > & | aSortOrder, |

) | [private] |
IMPORT_C void | SortL | ( | CArrayFix < TSortPref > * | aSortOrder | ) |
Sorts the database. The sort only includes items of the type set by SetDbViewContactType() . The database takes ownership of the sort order array passed in. Contacts are sorted using the first TSortPref in the array. Any identical matches are then sorted using the next TSortPref and so on. When there are no more TSortPrefs to use, any remaining unsorted contacts are left in the original database order.
Note: after calling this function, use CContactDatabase::SortedItemsL() to retrieve the sorted array of contact IDs.

This pointer is valid until a change is made to the database or until the database's active object is allowed to run. If the array is required after one of the above two events has occurred, a copy of the array must first be made.
TUid | SpeedDialFieldUidFromSpeedDialPosition | ( | TInt | aSpeedDialPosition | ) | [static] |
Returns the field UID for the given speed dial position. This method is copied from CCntServerSpeedDialManager::SpeedDialFieldUidFromSpeedDialPosition() rather than export this method for use here and on the server. Once the BC break referred to in SetFieldAsSpeedDialL() has been made this method should be removed.

TBool | aSendChangedEvent, | |||
TBool | aDecAccessCount = EFalse | |||
) |
Deletes a contact item.
Note: if the contact's access count is greater than zero, the contact is not fully deleted from the database. A 'skeleton' of the contact is left, containing only basic information, and no field data. The skeleton contact can still be accessed if a record of its contact ID has been retained (or call DeletedContactsLC() ). The skeleton is removed when the access count is zero.

Contact view filter flags.
These flags define the bits that can be set in filtered views (CContactFilteredView) and in the filter passed to CContactDatabase::ContactMatchesHintFieldL() for comparing against contact view items ( CViewContact ).
If the item's bit field and the view's filter have the same settings for the CContactDatabase::EHome and CContactDatabase::EWork flags and any of the other flags are set in both, a match occurs and the item is included in the view.
Filters only apply to non-hidden contact fields with content.
