Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 256181

(Calendar :: General, defect)

Description

[jean.saberon]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

I have Thunderbird with calendar-extension installed and Sunbird in my system.
When I try to use the calendar-extension from Thunderbird, it launches its own
version of calendar application instead of accessing my Sunbird application.
This doesn't help me access the tasks, alarms and events I created in the
Sunbird application.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Thunderbird.
2. Install Sunbird. Launch Sunbird to create task, alarm or/and event entries
from Sunbird.
3. Download calendar-extension for thunderbird. Launch Thunderbird to install
the extension. Restart Thunderbird to finalize installation of the extension.
4. Customize Thunderbird toolbar to include Calendar button/link.
5. Click on the Calendar button and a new calendar application will launch.
6. Check for entries you made in Sunbird application. Nada. It's like there was
a clean installation of a calendar application.

Actual Results:  
Sunbird and calendar-extension for Thunderbird are not fully integrated to
recognize each other. 

It is useless to install calendar-extension on Thunderbird if you already have
Sunbird even if you want to access the calendar application from the mail client

Expected Results:  
The calendar extension should in a way have access to Sunbird or just the
entries made in it. Sunbird and calendar, if possible, should share the same
data resource.
