Hi Forrest, > I'm implementing PBAP server based on obexd. In order to support > various PBAP backend storage each type of PBAP backend storage should > be implemented as a plugin of PBAP server.

Please keep in mind that in theory we can load more than one of these phonebook "drivers". All (and I mean all) plugins in bluetoothd and obexd are treated the same. It is up to their init and exit routines to do the job. This allows us to have a generic plugin framework and not do invent it over and over again. Did anyone converted the picture from the whiteboard at the meeting into some written details.
