### e_data_cal_error_quark ()

    GQuark              e_data_cal_error_quark              (void);

### e_data_cal_create_error ()

    GError *            e_data_cal_create_error             (EDataCalCallStatus status,
                                                             const gchar *custom_msg);

`status` : | EDataCalStatus code
`custom_msg` : | Custom message to use for the error. When NULL, then uses a default message based on the `status` code.
Returns : | NULL, when the `status` is Success, or a newly allocated GError, which should be freed with `g_error_free()` call.

Since 2.32

### e_data_cal_create_error_fmt ()

    GError *            e_data_cal_create_error_fmt         (EDataCalCallStatus status,
                                                             const gchar *custom_msg_fmt,
                                                             ...);

Similar as `e_data_cal_create_error()`, only here, instead of custom_msg, is used a `printf()` format to create a custom_msg for the error.

Since 2.32

### e_data_cal_status_to_string ()

    const gchar *       e_data_cal_status_to_string         (EDataCalCallStatus status);

Since 2.32

### e_data_cal_new ()

    EDataCal *          e_data_cal_new                      (struct _ECalBackend *backend,
                                                             GDBusConnection *connection,
                                                             const gchar *object_path,

Creates a new EDataCal and exports the Calendar D-Bus interface on `connection` at `object_path`. The EDataCal handles incoming remote method invocations and forwards them to the `backend`. If the Calendar interface fails to export, the function sets `error` and returns `NULL`.

`backend` : | an ECalBackend
`connection` : | a GDBusConnection
`object_path` : | object path for the D-Bus interface
`error` : | return location for a GError, or `NULL`
Returns : | an EDataCal, or `NULL` on error

### e_data_cal_ref_backend ()

    struct _ECalBackend * e_data_cal_ref_backend            (EDataCal *cal);

Returns the ECalBackend to which incoming remote method invocations are being forwarded.

The returned ECalBackend is referenced for thread-safety and should be unreferenced with `g_object_unref()` when finished with it.

`cal` : | an EDataCal
Returns : | an ECalBackend

Since 3.10

### e_data_cal_get_connection ()

    GDBusConnection *   e_data_cal_get_connection           (EDataCal *cal);

Returns the GDBusConnection on which the Calendar D-Bus interface is exported.

`cal` : | an EDataCal
Returns : | the GDBusConnection

Since 3.8

### e_data_cal_get_object_path ()

    const gchar *       e_data_cal_get_object_path          (EDataCal *cal);

Returns the object path at which the Calendar D-Bus interface is exported.

`cal` : | an EDataCal
Returns : | the object path

Since 3.8

### e_data_cal_respond_open ()

Notifies listeners of the completion of the open method call.

`cal` : | A calendar client interface.
`error` : | Operation error, if any, automatically freed if passed it.

Since 3.2
