<p>
An <a class="link" href="EBackend.html" title="EBackend"><span class="type">EBackend</span></a> is paired with an <a href="../libedataserver/ESource.html"><span class="type">ESource</span></a> to facilitate performing
actions on the local or remote resource described by the <a href="../libedataserver/ESource.html"><span class="type">ESource</span></a>.

In other words, whereas a certain backend type knows how to talk to a
certain type of server or data store, the <a href="../libedataserver/ESource.html"><span class="type">ESource</span></a> fills in configuration
details such as host name, user name, resource path, etc.

All <a class="link" href="EBackend.html" title="EBackend"><span class="type">EBackend</span></a> instances are created by an <a class="link" href="EBackendFactory.html" title="EBackendFactory"><span class="type">EBackendFactory</span></a>.
