1 Pidgin and Finch: The Pimpin' Penguin IM Clients That're Good for the Soul
3 Version 2.1.1 (08/20/2007):
6 * PurpleAccountUiOps.request_authorize's authorize_cb and
7 deny_cb parameters now correctly have type
8 PurpleAccountRequestAuthorizationCb rather than GCallback.
9 (You'll want to change your UI's implementation's signature
10 to avoid warnings, and then remove some now-redundant casts
11 back to the proper type.)
13 version 2.1.0 (7/28/2007):
16 * purple-remote: added getstatus command
17 * conversation-extended-menu signal (See Doxygen docs)
18 * OPT_PROTO_SLASH_COMMANDS_NATIVE protocol option to indicate that
19 slash commands are "native" to the protocol
20 * PURPLE_MESSAGE_NO_LINKIFY message flag to indicate that the message
21 should not be auto-linkified
22 * PurpleEventLoopUiOps.timeout_add_seconds
23 UIs can now use better scheduling for whole-second timers. For
24 example, clients based on the glib event loop can now use
25 g_timeout_add_seconds.
26 * purple_blist_node_get_type
27 * purple_conversation_do_command
28 * purple_conversation_get_extended_menu
29 * purple_core_ensure_single_instance
30 This is for UIs to use to ensure only one copy is running.
31 * purple_dbus_is_owner
32 * purple_timeout_add_seconds
33 Callers should prefer this to purple_timeout_add for timers
34 longer than 1 second away. Be aware of the rounding, though.
35 * purple_timeout_add_seconds
36 Callers should prefer this to purple_timeout_add for timers
37 longer than 1 second away. Be aware of the rounding, though.
38 * purple_xfer_get_remote_user
39 * purple_pounces_get_all_for_ui
40 * purple_prefs_get_children_names
41 * added displaying-email-notification and
42 displaying-emails-notification signals
45 * The documentation of the following functions now properly
46 declares that the returned value must not be modified or
47 freed, which was always the case:
48 * purple_accounts_get_all
49 * purple_connections_get_all
50 * purple_connections_get_connecting
51 * purple_conv_chat_get_ignored
52 * purple_conv_chat_get_users
54 * purple_get_conversations
56 * purple_notify_user_info_get_entries
57 * The following functions now return a GList* instead of a
58 const GList*, as const is not very useful with GLists. The
59 returned value still must not be modified or freed:
60 * purple_account_get_status_types
61 * purple_mime_document_get_fields
62 * purple_mime_document_get_parts
63 * purple_mime_part_get_fields

67 * purple_status_type_get_attrs
68 * purple_presence_get_statuses
69 * purple_request_field_list_set_selected now takes a GList*
70 instead of a const GList* for items, as const is not very
71 useful with GLists. The passed list is still not modified
73 * purple_presence_add_list now takes a GList* instead of a
74 const GList* for source_list, as const is not very useful with
75 GLists. The passed list is still not modified or freed.

86 * pidgin_blist_get_name_markup, returns the buddy list markup
87 text for a given buddy.

126 * gnt_util_set_trigger_widget
129 * gnt_tree_get_rows() now returns a GList* instead of a const
130 GList*, as const is not very useful with GLists. The
131 returned value still must not be modified or freed.
132 * Instead of keeping an 'invisible' item, the GntTreeColumns now
133 maintain 'flags' with the appropriate flags set
135 version 2.0.2 (6/14/2007):
138 * pidgin_dialogs_alias_contact: This will be removed in 3.0.0
139 unless there is sufficient demand to keep it.
141 version 2.0.0 (5/3/2007):
142 Please note all functions, defines, and data structures have been
143 re-namespaced to match the new names of Pidgin, Finch, and libpurple.
144 All gaim_gtk_* functions are now pidgin_*, former libgaim functions are
145 now purple_*. Please consult our doxygen documentation for a complete
148 The gaim-compat.h header exists to provide an API compatibility layer
149 for libpurple functions. As an API compatibility layer, it must be

211 GaimMessageFlags instead of GaimConvImFlags / GaimConvChatFlags
212 * All core<->prpl message passing now uses html. This was previously true
213 for receiving messages, it's now also true for sending them. prpls that

266 This means that plugins must be updated to expect such a socket from
267 gaim_proxy_connect() and gaim_network_listen*().
268 * gaim_proxy_connect(): changed to return NULL on error and a pointer
269 to a GaimProxyConnectInfo object which can be used to cancel

310 purple_request_folder() was changed to accept account, who, and
311 conversation parameters for associating the request with an account, a
312 buddy, or a conversation.

538 with GaimAccount*, const char *name. Also, the signal is now emitted

551 conversation pointer and a pointer to the flags.
552 * "writing-im-msg", "wrote-im-msg", "writing-chat-msg", "wrote-chat-msg":
553 Now emitted from a difference place in the message handling code.
554 The arguments also changed.
555 * "displaying-im-msg", "displayed-im-msg", "displaying-chat-msg",
556 "displayed-chat-msg": Added "who" argument, which changes the order
557 of the existing arguments.

671 support. In particular, watch out for the autoconf-like

673 which you probably shouldn't be including anyway.
