[Evolution-hackers] problem with ebook in Evo 1.4.6

[Hubert Figuiere <hfiguiere teaser fr>]

Hi,

I'm trying trying, from my shell component for Evo 1.4, to read the
local AddressBook content with e-book APIs, but each time I get the
cursor, it is empty (length == 0).

I know that I have 2 cards in it.

Attached is a sample code extracted from my code, that ressemble much to
what Evo does. (compilation line is in the first line comment)

Any clues ?

Thanks a lot for any help.
