   4 API. We sometimes forget to add changes to this file--sorry.

   6 If your plugin fails to build with a new major version (e.g. 3.0.0) we
   7 suggest checking this list first, in case a function was simply renamed.
   8 You may still need to consult our API docs or our source code.

  10 If you notice something missing from this list, please let us know and we'll
  11 add it.

 776 version 2.7.11 (03/10/2011):
 777         * libpurple:
 778                 Added:
 779                 * Four entries in the GHashTable passed when joining
 780                   an XMPP chat room which allow the UI to request a limited
 781                   amount of history.  See XEP-0045 7.1.16 for details; the
 782                   entries are named history_maxchars, history_maxstanzas,
 783                   history_seconds, and history_since.  history_since must be
 784                   interpretable by purple_str_to_time, and the prpl takes care
 785                   of formatting the time properly.
 786         * Perl:

 824                   called for a protocol that doesn't support the underlying
 825                   calls and the caller does not specify a failure callback.

 831         Pidgin:

 833                 * Changing the visibility (gtk_widget_hide/show) of

 835                   the visibility of the entries in the 'lean' view

 881                 * PurpleMood struct in status.h
 882                 * purple_network_get_all_local_system_ips, which returns all
 883                   local IPs on the system.  On systems with the getifaddrs()
 884                   function, this will return both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
 885                   (excluding link-local and loopback addresses).  On others,
 886                   it returns just IPv4 addresses.
 887                 * purple_network_listen_family and
 888                   purple_network_listen_range_family.  These will replace the
 889                   versions without _family in 3.0.0 and allow the caller to
 890                   specifically request either an IPv4 or IPv6 socket.  IPv6 is
 891                   only supported if the getaddrinfo() function is available
 892                   at build-time (not the case on Windows, currently).

 914 version 2.6.6 (02/18/2010):
 915         libpurple:
 916                 Changed:
 917                 * purple_xfer_cancel_local is now called instead of
 918                   purple_xfer_request_denied if an error is found when selecting
 919                   a file to send. Request denied is still used when a receive
 920                   request is not allowed.
 921                 * xmlnode_from_str now properly handles parsing an attribute which
 922                   contain "&lt;br&gt;", which were previously transformed into a
 923                   newline character (libxml2 unescapes all entities except
 924                   representations of '&', and libpurple's purple_unescape_html
 925                   converts "<br>" to a newline).
 926
 927         Perl:
 928                 Changed:
 929                 * Corrected the package names for the PurpleProxyType and
 930                   PurpleLogReadFlags enums to have the correct number of colons
 931                   (from Purple::ProxyType::::<type> to Purple::ProxyType::<type>

 945         Perl:
 946                 Added:
 947                 * Purple::XMLNode::get_next(), which returns the next neighbor tag of
 948                   the current node.
 949                 Changed:
 950                 * Purple::XMLNode::get_child() will return the first child node if
 951                   passed "" or undef as the name of the node.

 962                 * PURPLE_CONTACT

 969                 * blist-node-added and blist-node-removed signals (see
 970                   blist-signals.dox)
 971                 * Three Blist UI ops used to overload libpurple's built-in saving
 972                   of the buddy list to blist.xml. If a UI implements these, it probably
 973                   wants to add the buddies itself and not call purple_blist_load.
 974                 * Three File Transfer UI ops used to overload libpurple's use of fread
 975                   and fwrite for saving a file locally. These allow a UI to stream a
 976                   file through a socket without buffering the file on the local disk.
 977                 * Jabber plugin signals (see jabber-signals.dox)

1029                 * PURPLE_STATUS_MOOD as a new PurpleStatusPrimitive
1030
1031                 Changed:
1032                 * xmlnode_remove_attrib now removes all attributes with the
1033                   same name.  Previously, it would remove the first one found,
1034                   which was completely non-deterministic.  If you want to remove
1035                   the attribute with no namespace, then use NULL with
1036                   xmlnode_remove_with_namespace.
1037                 * Plugins may now emit the jabber-sending-xmlnode signal in order
1038                   to send stanzas; this method is preferred to the prpl send_raw
1039                   function as other plugins listening to the signal see them.
1040                 * The conversation-updated signal with a PURPLE_CONV_UPDATE_TYPING
1041                   update type is emitted when receiving an IM.  Previously, the
1042                   typing state was modified (and the buddy-typing-stopped signal
1043                   emitted), but this signal was not emitted.
1044                 * Added a client_type field in the get_ui_info core UI op. See
1045                   core.h for details.
1046                 * Added introspection of signals exposed via the D-Bus API.
1047                 * purple_find_buddies is now more efficient in the case where
1048                   it is enumerating all the buddies for an account.
1049                 * purple_find_group is now more efficient for large numbers of groups.
1050                 * purple_find_conversation_with_account is more efficient for large
1051                   numbers of concurrent conversations.
1052                 * All DNS routines support internationalized domain names (IDNs) when
1053                   libpurple is compiled with GNU libidn.
1054                 * status is set before emitting signals in purple_xfer_set_status.
1055                 * Creating multiple distinct chats with the same name (i.e. "MSN Chat")
1056                   is deprecated and will be removed in libpurple 3.0.0.
1057                 * purple_xfer_start now accepts -1 as the fd parameter if the protocol
1058                   plugin will administer the transfer itself. 0 is still accepted for
1059                   backward compatibility since older versions of libpurple will not

1343                 * purple_plugin_disable(), which is intended to be called when
1344                   a purple_plugin_unload()--which was called when a user tried
1345                   to unload a plugin--fails.  This then prevents the plugin
1346                   from being saved in the saved plugins list, so it'll won't
1347                   be loaded at the next startup.
1348                 * PurpleDisconnectReason enumeration of machine-readable
1349                   types of connection error.
1350                 * purple_connection_error_reason(), to be used by prpls
1351                   (instead of purple_connection_error() and setting

1353                   PurpleDisconnectReason.
1354                 * PurpleConnectionUiOps.report_disconnect_reason, to be
1355                   implemented by UIs (rather than .report_disconnect) if
1356                   they want to use the reported PurpleDisconnectReason
1357                   to give a more specific error.
1358                 * A connection-error signal, fired just after the UiOp is
1359                   called with the same information.
1360                 * purple_connection_reason_is_fatal(), acting as a hint
1361                   to whether automatic reconnection should be attempted
1362                   after a connection error (rather than checking
1363                   gc->wants_to_die).
1364                 * PurpleConnectionErrorInfo, a struct to hold a
1365                   PurpleConnectionError and a const char *description.
1366                 * purple_account_get_current_error() to get the most recent
1367                   PurpleConnectionError and description (or NULL if the

1369                   the last error without caching it themselves (as
1370                   PidginBuddyList does).
1371                 * purple_account_clear_current_error() to reset an account's
1372                   error state to NULL.
1373                 * An account-error-changed signal, firing when
1374                   purple_account_get_current_error()'s return value changes.
1375
1376                 * PidginMiniDialog, a Gtk widget-ified version of
1377                   pidgin_make_mini_dialog().
1378
1379                 * purple_util_init()
1380                 * purple_util_uninit()
1381
1382                 * purple_network_listen_map_external() to temporarily disable
1383                   mapping ports externally via NAT-PMP or UPnP.
1384
1385                 Changed:
1386                 * purple_plugin_unload() now honors the return value of a
1387                   plugin's unload function and can actually return FALSE now.
1388                 * purple_plugin_unload() no longer does its own notifications
1389                   when a dependent plugin fails to unload.  The UI should do
1390                   something appropriate.
1391
1392                 * pidgin_make_mini_dialog() now declares its return type to be
1393                   GtkWidget * rather than void *.  This should not break any
1394                   existing code since any code using it must already rely on
1395                   the return type actually being GtkWidget * all along.

1511                   deny_cb parameters now correctly have type
1512                   PurpleAccountRequestAuthorizationCb rather than GCallback.
1513                   (You'll want to change your UI's implementation's signature
1514                   to avoid warnings, and then remove some now-redundant casts
1515                   back to the proper type.)

1547                   declares that the returned value must not be modified or

1570                 * purple_request_field_list_set_selected now takes a GList*
1571                   instead of a const GList* for items, as const is not very

1573                   or freed.
1574                 * purple_presence_add_list now takes a GList* instead of a
