Description Guillaume Desmottes 2011-10-27 02:25:13 UTC
Let's say I have an app using only some common TpConnection features. Those are passed to the factory and then the app prepares the TpAccountManager and starts its work.

Then user opens a dialog using a very specific feature (say contact blocking). The app adds this feature to the very and re-prepare the account manager.

expected result: once the AM has been re-prepared all its TpConnection have the new feature.

actual result: the feature isn't prepared at all.


That basically means that for now the app has to prepare every single feature that it MAY have to use at some point; even the rare ones.

This is pretty difficult: it would need to cascade down through all the sub-objects somehow.
