The idea of this module is to map drupal user's fields to his related civicrm contact's fields so every time a change is made in the drupal side, the change is automatically reflected on the civicrm side.
The state of this module is very initial and a lot of improvements can be done:
1.- The civicrm fields names are not obtained dynamically from the civicrm db, for several reasons:
it is necessary to make changes on the settings.php files to define a connection string for the civicrm db, depending on the parameters chosen on the civicrm installation the prefix of the tables can be civicr_ or different... Another problem is to obtain clearly civicrm custom fields defined for the contacts.
2.- Drupal profile files are considered and obtained dynamically rom the db (content_type_profile table), but only simple fields so for example image and location fields are not considered.
