Re: Address Book Helper code released to public domain

It wasn't my intention to insinuate the ABMV was somehow difficult. It appeared, though, that there is involved a lot of boiler plate code that could be wrapped to deal with with simple, common items.

In response to your point below, I think the best solution would be to check the return type and see if ti is ABMV. If so, then get the first item in the MV and return it. If it's a string, just return it. I'll get this in there as soon as I have a free moment. Given your email domain, and your use of the third person in your response below, this seems like a solution you could have easily provided when pointing out the flaw instead of going on the defensive.

If someone needs access to ALL the work numbers, or anything else not directly supported by my extensions, then they can go ahead and not use ANY of my code and use the AB API directly. I do not prevent this in any way.

This is great, but if i have 2 work or hone email addresses which one
does it get???


The first one it finds in the Multi Valued property dictionary for
kABPhoneProperty. The code right now assumes one value per label.

Just to make everything clear this assumption is wrong. Which is why we wrote ABMultiValue, it wasn't done to make things difficult for > you.
