[Development] QContactLocalId in Qt5

[paivi.rajala at nokia.com]

Hi Mathias,

Getting rid of QContactManagerEngineV2 and QOrganizerManagerEngineV2 is quite high on the todo list. :-) Plan is to merge the methods to QContactManagerEngine as you suggested. Actually for organizer there is already a patch under review: http://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,7802,patchset=2

Br,
Päivi

One more thing. Should learn to focus! :-)

QContactManagerEngineV2 - right now it is marked as interface, but actually it extends QContactManagerEngine. So I'd propose to either merge its virtual methods into QContactManagerEngine, or to make it a real interface (by not inheriting QContactManagerEngine).

Friedrich Kossebau has some insights on this.

Ciao,
Mathias
