Claims
- 1. Method for handling synchronization related information received from an application running on an electronic device, comprising:
receiving synchronization related information from said application, and in case said synchronization related information received includes uncoded synchronization related information, coding said synchronization related information and transmitting said coded synchronization related information to a communication component; in case said received information includes coded synchronization related information, transmitting said coded synchronization related information to said communication component.
- 2. Method according to claim 1, further comprising:
checking said received information in order to determine if said received information includes coded synchronization related information.
- 3. Method according to claim 1, wherein said handling of said synchronization related information comprises:
providing header information in accordance with said synchronization related information, and transmitting said header information.
- 4. Method according to claim 1, wherein said communication component transmits said synchronization related information to a further electronic device for synchronizing.
- 5. Method for handling synchronization related information received from a communication component, comprising:
receiving said synchronization related information from said communication component, determining before decoding if said synchronization related information is to be passed through; in case said synchronization related information is not to be passed through, decoding said synchronization related information and transmitting said decoded synchronization related information to an application; in case said synchronization related information is to be passed through, transmitting said synchronization related information to an application undecoded.
- 6. Method according to claim 5, wherein said determining if said synchronization related information is to be passed through comprises:
receiving a user input.
- 7. Method according to claim 5, wherein said determining if said synchronization related information is to be passed through comprises:
analyzing header information associated with said synchronization related information.
- 8. Method according to claim 5, wherein said communication component receives said synchronization related information from a further electronic device for synchronizing.
- 9. Method according to claim 5, wherein said synchronization related information is communicated via an application program interface (API).
- 10. Method according to claim 5, wherein said communication component communicates said synchronization related information to said further electronic device, based on a synchronization protocol according to the synchronization markup language (SyncML) standard.
- 11. Method according to claim 10, wherein said synchronization protocol is transmitted via a logical communication connection which is based on at least one protocol out of a group comprising:
hyper text transfer protocol (HTTP), wireless session protocol (WSP) and object exchange protocol (OBEX).
- 12. Software tool for handling synchronization related information, comprising program code portions for carrying out the operations of claim 1, when said program is implemented in a computer program for being executed on a computer, a user terminal or a network device.
- 13. Computer program for handling synchronization related information, comprising program code section for carrying out the operations of claim 1, when said program is run on a computer, a user terminal or a network device.
- 14. Computer program product for handling synchronization related information, wherein said computer program product is comprising program code sections stored on a computer readable medium for carrying out the method of claim 1, when said program product is run on a computer, a user terminal or network device.
- 15. Apparatus for handling synchronization related information received from at least one application, adapted to execute said at least one application and comprising a wrapper component and a communication component, wherein said at least one application generates synchronization related information which is transmitted to said wrapper component, wherein said wrapper component is adapted to execute operations of receiving said synchronization related information from said at least one application, and in case said received synchronization related information includes coded synchronization related information, passing through said coded synchronization related information to said communication component.
- 16. Apparatus according to claim 15, for handling synchronization related information received from said communication component, adapted to execute said at least one application and comprising said wrapper component and said communication component, wherein said wrapper component is adapted to execute operations of receiving said synchronization related information, determining if said synchronization related information is to be passed through and in case said synchronization related information is to be passed through, passing through said synchronization related information to said at least one application undecoded.
