seems very sane.
What is the possibility of adding other backends? If I am not using
network-manager, could we use another system (wicd for example) or is
the code setup to only work with NM?

and konversation from trying to connect.
Does it send signals when connected/disconnected? for example i'd like
konversation to reconnection when the connection becomes available.
Will the be possible with this new API?
Yes:
TDEGlobalNetworkManager* nm = KGlobal::networkManager();
if (!(nm->backendStatus() &
TDENetworkGlobalManagerFlags::BackendUnavailable)) {
// A network management backend is available
connect(nm,
SIGNAL(networkConnectionStateChanged(TDENetworkGlobalManagerFlags::TDENetworkGlobalManagerFlags,
TDENetworkGlobalManagerFlags::TDENetworkGlobalManagerFlags)), this,
SLOT(theGlobalNetworkStateChanged(TDENetworkGlobalManagerFlags::TDENetworkGlobalManagerFlags,
TDENetworkGlobalManagerFlags::TDENetworkGlobalManagerFlags)));
}
I could definitely use some assistance in updating konversation/kmail/etc
to incorporate this new functionality, so if you want to hack on those
applications please feel free!

Hey Tim
I've been looking through the commits lately. What is this work you
are doing with NetworkManager? Looks to be rather large.
Calvin
Ah, you saw that, did you? ;-)
As of right now TDE has a full C++ API interface for networking, and a
backend for that API which talks to the latest version of
NetworkManager.
In addition to being able to add/modify/delete/activate/deactivate
connections, all TDE applications can now request the current state of
the
network connection, which (once implemented in each application) would
allow applications such kmail to avoid checking for new messages while
the
host computer is offline.
