The QContactSaveRequest class allows a client to asynchronously request that certain contacts be saved to a contacts store.
For a QContactSaveRequest, the resultsAvailable() signal will be emitted when either the individual item errors (which may be retrieved by calling errorMap()), or the resultant contacts (which may be retrieved by calling contacts()), are updated, as well as if the overall operation error (which may be retrieved by calling error()) is updated.
Please see the class documentation of QContactAbstractRequest for more information about the usage of request classes and ownership semantics.
Constructs a new contact save request whose parent is the specified parent
Frees any memory used by this request
Returns the list of contacts which will be saved if called prior to calling start(), otherwise returns the list of contacts with their ids set appropriately (successfully saved new contacts will have an id assigned).
This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.
See also setContacts().
Returns the list of definitions that this request will operate on.
If the list is empty, the request will operate on all details.
See also setDefinitionMask().
Returns the map of input contact list indices to errors which occurred
This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.
Sets the contact to be saved to contact. Equivalent to calling:
setContacts(QList<QContact>() << contact);
This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.
Sets the list of contacts to be saved to contacts
This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.
See also contacts().
Set the list of definitions to restrict saving to definitionMask. This allows you to perform partial save (and remove) operations on new and existing contacts.
If definitionMask is empty (the default), no restrictions will apply, and the passed in contacts will be saved as is. Otherwise, only details whose definitions are in the list will be saved. If a definition name is present in the list, but there are no corresponding details in the contact passed into this request, any existing details in the manager for that contact will be removed.
This is useful if you've used a fetch hint to fetch a partial contact from a manager so that you can save changes to the details you actually fetched without removing the details you didn't.
Additionally, when performing synchronization operations with other managers that don't support the full range of details, you can restrict the update operation to only those details so that you don't lose the extra details that are supported in this manager.
Note: Some managers do not support partial updates natively, in which case the QtContacts framework will emulate the functionality (fetching the whole contact, applying the new restricted details, and saving the contact back).
