Hello,
Yes there is a way to do this. Check this out:
// ================================================================
// Notifications published when something changes
// ================================================================
// This process has changed the DB
extern NSString * const kABDatabaseChangedNotification;
// Another process has changed the DB
extern NSString * const kABDatabaseChangedExternallyNotification;
Hi,
Is there any way to check if changes have been made to Address Book
(AB)? I have an app that uses AB and I want to set it up so that when
the user updates AB, my app knows about the change/s and updates itself
automatically. I searched AB.framework but there doesn't seem to be any
notification or messages sent by AB.
I could use AB's hasUnsavedChanges: method, but that raises another
question: when I make a change to AB, is the change saved (a)
immediately, (b) when I stop editing the card, or (c) when I quit AB?
If it's (b), then I could use hasUnsavedChanges:, and if it's (c), then
I could use NSWorkspace. But if it's (a), then hasUnsavedChanges: would
return NO as if no changes have been made, and I'll be stuck.
I hope the above makes sense and that my assumptions in the second
paragraph are correct.
Thanks
Yuhui
