236923 - palm sync uninstall doesn't always restore previous adress conduit

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(MailNews Core Graveyard :: Palm Sync, defect)

Description

[David :Bienvenu]

The palm sync uninstall attempts to re-install the desktop ab conduit by calling
CmRestoreHotSyncSettings, which is supposed to restore the conduit settings to
their default values. This has a bunch of problems, including: if the palm
desktop isn't in the default location, uninstall doesn't work, and it doesn't
restore the previous conduit, just the default desktop conduit. A better
approach is to save off the previous conduit information in the registry at
install time, and restore it at uninstall time. Patch upcoming.

Attachment: proposed fix

this fix points out the need to cleanup the code that gets the function
pointers from the conduit mgr - this should be table driven...
