Release v1.0.0.0 of the Mail Client

Feature
After successfully authentication application will ask user to give a user name and email ID which is just authenticated. Once user provide the asked details application must store these details locally in a folder.
When details are received, it will be stored in a XML file where all other account details are stored, other a separate folder will be created where authenticated token will be stored which will be copied back in master folder which will be the default authentication location.

Solution
We need a function (separate and individual) which will receive a folder name as a parameter and create a folder in accounts folder of central location where all accounts are stored.
NOTE: naming for account name uniquely is not finalised yet. like Name: Sharad EmailID: [email protected] then name for folder could be Name +(plus) EmailID but naming must be based on windows naming convention

Prepare Release Notes for v1.0.0.0

Currently, data of Mail Client i.e. Email IDs are stored in Mail Client executable directory's bind folder which is present in C drive as on Windows.

If anything goes wrong with Windows, data will be lost.

You can make this storage of data to be customized using a config file.

Most probably data will be stored in C drive App Data folder or D or any other drive other than C drive.

Write a function to perform the following activities

1. Read a Contact XML file from a location specified somewhere (at runtime the location will be provided to the function)
   AND
2. Find the ID of the last contact saved in that file
   AND
3. Return the ID value

The function must also check for following

1. Input is a valid path.
2. User has access to the path specified in the input.
3. User has access to read the specified file in the path
4. Function must execute within 1 second

Input:

• Location of Contact XML file in string format

Output:

• Return the ID of last Contact Saved in integer format
  OR
• Return -1 if there is no Contact saved in the file
  OR
• Throw a respective exception if failed to retrieve the ID

Test Cases:

1. Valid Path and 1 Contact Exist
   Input: C:\Data\Contacts.xml
   Output: 1
   Data in Contacts.xml:
   

            <Contact ID=1>
   
                <Name>Rahul</Name>
   
                <EmailID>[email protected]</EmailID>
   
                <Status>1</Status>
   
                <CreatedOn>29-Sep-2020</CreatedOn>
   
                <LastUpdatedOn/>
   
            </Contact>
   
    </Contacts>
   

2. Invalid Path and 1 Contact
   Input: C:\Data\Contacts1.xml
   Output: "Exception"
   Data in Contacts.xml:
   

            <Contact ID=1>
   
                <Name>Rahul</Name>
   
                <EmailID>[email protected]</EmailID>
   
                <Status>1</Status>
   
                <CreatedOn>29-Sep-2020</CreatedOn>
   
                <LastUpdatedOn/>
   
            </Contact>
   
    </Contacts>
   

3. Valid Path and No Contact
   Input: C:\Data\Contacts.xml
   Output: -1
   Data in Contacts.xml:
   

    </Contacts>
   

Add model for contact information

Problem and Solution

Write a function that will receive account details from user after successfully authorising application in a object of account details and this function will write all these information in a XML file locally.

Account details object will be created using account class where class will have properties to get and set Name, and Email ID which will be retrieved when saving in XML file.

This function will be written in C#.
A new class will be created for this in same project.

Alternative

One could create completely a library project and add in existing solution and used in existing project using reference.

Prepare System Troubleshooting for v1.0.0.0

Feature.
As user is asked to tell system account name and emailID that he/she just authenticated and authorized, there is a possibility that a user could enter a duplicate account name that is already present in system. We need to check if account name already exist or not after user provided name to system.

Solution
Account name must be unique because the same will be used to create a separate directory for it's authentication token.
We will create a function name that will receive a account name as argument and it will check in XML file where all other account details are stored to see if same name already exist or not. This function will return a boolean value 1 or true if account name already exists and 0 or false if account name do not exists. This function will use other function which read all data from XML file.

Alternative
Store a unique number with every account name and email ID in XML file which Unique number will be the name of folder (directory) to store token. This alternative will not require check duplicate method.
