<h1>AgentBase Class Reference</h1>
<code>from PyKDE4.akonadi import *</code>
<p>
Inherits: QObject<br />

Namespace: <a href="../akonadi/Akonadi.html">Akonadi</a><br />
<h2>Detailed Description</h2>

<p>The base class for all Akonadi agents and resources.
</p>
<p>
This class is a base class for all Akonadi agents, which covers the real
agent processes and all resources.
</p>
<p>
It provides:
- lifetime management
- change monitoring and recording
- configuration interface
- problem reporting
</p>
<p>
Akonadi Server supports serveral ways to launch agents and resources:
- As a seperate application (@see AKONADI_AGENT_MAIN)
- As a thread in the AgentServer
- As a seperate process, using the akonadi_agent_launcher
</p>
<p>
The idea is this, the agent or resource is written as a plugin instead of an
executable (@see AgentFactory). In the AgentServer case, the AgentServer
looks up the plugin and launches the agent in a seperate thread. In the
launcher case, a new akonadi_agent_launcher process is started for each
agent or resource instance.
</p>
<p>
When making an Agent or Resource suitable for running in the AgentServer some
extra caution is needed. Because multiple instances of several kinds of agents
run in the same process, one cannot blindly use global objects like KGlobal.
For this reasons several methods where added to avoid problems in this context,
most notably AgentBase.config() and AgentBase.componentData(). Additionally,
one cannot use QDBusConnection.sessionBus() with dbus &lt; 1.4, because of a
multithreading bug in libdbus. Instead one should use
DBusConnectionPool.threadConnection() which works around this problem.
