AddressBook



Hi!

I hope this is the right group to ask this question...

Documentation for ABAddressBook exposes a new method for 10.5: [ABAddressBook addressBook].(ABAddressBook Class Reference)

Doc says that it "Returns a new instance of ABAddressBook".

As I am in need of using a "private" addressbook for a project, I thought this would be perfect.

With a quick test I attempted:
...
ab = [ABAddressBook addressBook];
//ab = [ABAddressBook sharedAddressBook];


ABPerson *aPerson = [[[ABPerson alloc] init] autorelease];
[aPerson setValue:@"Remy" forProperty:kABFirstNameProperty];
[aPerson setValue:@"Lebeau" forProperty:kABLastNameProperty];


[ab addRecord:aPerson];
[ab save];
...

What I found out was that both sharedAddressBook and addressBook accomplished the same thing, that is adding a new person into my existing user addressbook, as opposed to generating a new addressbook...

Did I misunderstand the documentation?

TIA!

Jeremy
