## Description

## Details

### struct EDataBook

    struct EDataBook;

### E_DATA_BOOK_ERROR

    #define E_DATA_BOOK_ERROR e_data_book_error_quark ()

Since 2.30

### e_data_book_create_error ()

    GError *            e_data_book_create_error            (EDataBookStatus status,
                                                             const gchar *custom_msg);

`status` : | EDataBookStatus 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 E_DATA_BOOK_STATUS_SUCCESS, or a newly allocated GError, which should be freed with `g_error_free()` call.

Since 2.32

### e_data_book_create_error_fmt ()

    GError *            e_data_book_create_error_fmt        (EDataBookStatus status,
                                                             const gchar *custom_msg_fmt,
                                                             ...);

Similar as `e_data_book_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_book_status_to_string ()

    const gchar *       e_data_book_status_to_string        (EDataBookStatus status);

Since 2.32

### e_return_data_book_error_if_fail()

    #define             e_return_data_book_error_if_fail(expr, _code)

Since 2.32

### e_return_data_book_error_val_if_fail()

    #define             e_return_data_book_error_val_if_fail(expr, _code)

Same as `e_return_data_book_error_if_fail()`, only returns FALSE on a failure

Since 3.2

### e_data_book_new ()

    EDataBook *         e_data_book_new                     (EBookBackend *backend,

### e_data_book_get_backend ()

    EBookBackend *      e_data_book_get_backend             (EDataBook *book);

### e_data_book_get_source ()

    ESource *           e_data_book_get_source              (EDataBook *book);

### e_data_book_register_gdbus_object ()

    guint               e_data_book_register_gdbus_object   (EDataBook *cal,
                                                             GDBusConnection *connection,
