Where is the ActiveSync / MS Exchange Source within the Android OS Code-Base

Question

Ever since Froyo (Android 2.2), Google's Android OS has supported syncing Microsoft Exchange accounts using the ActiveSync protocol. I am trying to find Android's implementation of the ActiveSync protocol within the Android code-base.

Does anyone know where ActiveSync is implemented in Android? I have been rummaging around the GitHub repository but cannot find it.

I suspect that it is not released, as I suspect that Microsoft's licensing would preclude an open source implementation. That's just a guess, though. — CommonsWare, Feb 09 '12 at 01:24
I don't think so, Z-push (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-push) is a free and open-source implementation of ActiveSync. I can't find Android's though. — speedplane, Feb 09 '12 at 15:40

Right here, enjoy.

[EDIT] - if there are issues accessing the link above, the source is also on omapzoom.org. To see individual code files there, navigate to a "tree" link for any of the commits and dig down into the src folders. Here's an example.

Did this link get hijacked? It seems to point to a spammer site now. – speedplane Mar 07 '15 at 19:02

Just download from the android git repository. If you are on linux, then wget -r --no-parent https://android.googlesource.com/platform/packages/apps/Exchange/+/master/exchange2/src/com/android/exchange ought to do it.
