192 version 2.3.0 (11/24/2007):
195 * a PurpleConversation field and an alias field in PurpleConvMessage
196 * account-authorization signals (see account-signals.dox for
197 details) (Stefan Ott)
198 * libpurple/purple.h, which includes #define's and #include's
199 required to compile stand-alone plugins
200 * PURPLE_STATUS_TUNE as a new PurpleStatusPrimitive
201 * purple_plugin_disable(), which is intended to be called when
202 a purple_plugin_unload()--which was called when a user tried
203 to unload a plugin--fails. This then prevents the plugin
204 from being saved in the saved plugins list, so it'll won't
205 be loaded at the next startup.
206 * PurpleDisconnectReason enumeration of machine-readable
207 types of connection error.
208 * purple_connection_error_reason(), to be used by prpls
209 (instead of purple_connection_error() and setting
210 gc->wants_to_die) to report errors along with a
211 PurpleDisconnectReason.
212 * PurpleConnectionUiOps.report_disconnect_reason, to be
213 implemented by UIs (rather than .report_disconnect) if
214 they want to use the reported PurpleDisconnectReason
215 to give a more specific error.
216 * A connection-error signal, fired just after the UiOp is
217 called with the same information.
218 * purple_connection_reason_is_fatal(), acting as a hint
219 to whether automatic reconnection should be attempted
220 after a connection error (rather than checking
222 * PurpleConnectionErrorInfo, a struct to hold a
223 PurpleConnectionError and a const char *description.
224 * purple_account_get_current_error() to get the most recent
225 PurpleConnectionError and description (or NULL if the
226 account is happy with life), to allow bits of the UI to know
227 the last error without caching it themselves (as
228 PidginBuddyList does).
229 * purple_account_clear_current_error() to reset an account's
231 * An account-error-changed signal, firing when
232 purple_account_get_current_error()'s return value changes.
234 * PidginMiniDialog, a Gtk widget-ified version of
235 pidgin_make_mini_dialog().
238 * purple_util_uninit()
240 * purple_network_listen_map_external() to temporarily disable
241 mapping ports externally via NAT-PMP or UPnP.
244 * purple_plugin_unload() now honors the return value of a
245 plugin's unload function and can actually return FALSE now.
246 * purple_plugin_unload() no longer does its own notifications
247 when a dependent plugin fails to unload. The UI should do
248 something appropriate.
250 * pidgin_make_mini_dialog() now declares its return type to be
251 GtkWidget * rather than void *. This should not break any
252 existing code since any code using it must already rely on
253 the return type actually being GtkWidget * all along.
256 * pidgin_dialogs_about()
257 * pidgin_log_show_contact()
259 * pidgin_plugin_dialog_show()
260 * pidgin_pounce_editor_show()
261 * pidgin_pounces_manager_show()
262 * pidgin_syslog_show()
264 * purple_connection_error()
265 * pidgin_blist_update_account_error_state()
266 * PidginBuddyList.connection_errors
267 * purple_network_listen_map_external()
270 * A new independant status type with PURPLE_STATUS_TUNE primitive, and
271 PURPLE_TUNE_ARTIST, PURPLE_TUNE_ALBUM and PURPLE_TUNE_TITLE
275 * A new independant status type with PURPLE_STATUS_TUNE primitive, and
276 PURPLE_TUNE_{ARTIST, TITLE, ALBUM, GENRE, COMMENT, TRACK, TIME,
277 YEAR, URL} attributes.
281 * Added gnt_color_pair, which will try to intelligenty set text
282 attributes in place of colors if the terminal doesn't have color
283 support. (Bug: #3560) All future code should use gnt_color_pair
284 instead of COLOR_PAIR.
285 * Added gnt_menuitem_set_id and gnt_menuitem_get_id to set and get the
286 string id of a menuitem respectively.
287 * Added gnt_window_get_accel_item, which returns a the id of a menuitem
288 bound to a keystroke.
289 * Added gnt_menu_get_item to get a menuitem of the given id from a
291 * Added gnt_menuitem_activate, which triggers the 'activate' signal on
292 the menuitem and calls the callback function, if available.
293 * Added GntEntryKillRing in GntEntry.
294 * Added gnt_window_set_maximize and gnt_window_get_maximize, and
297 version 2.2.2 (??/??/????):
300 * The size parameter of purple_util_write_data_to_file_absolute
301 has been changed to gssize instead of a size_t to correctly
302 indicate that -1 can be used for a nul-delimited string.
303 * The documentation for purple_savedstatuses_get_popular used to
304 incorrectly claim that the active status is excluded from the
305 returned list. The documentation has been corrected. Also, the
306 function now returns a correct list when called with a value of 0.
308 version 2.2.0 (09/13/2007):
311 * PURPLE_MESSAGE_INVISIBLE flag, which can be used by
312 purple_conv_im_send_with_flags to send a message, but not display it
314 * serv_send_attention(), serv_got_attention(), as well as send_attention
315 and attention_types in PurplePluginProtocolInfo. This new API is used
316 for zapping in MySpaceIM, buzzing in Yahoo, and nudging in MSN.
317 * PurpleConvMessage structure to represent a message in a
318 conversation. purple_conversation_message_get_sender,
319 purple_conversation_message_get_message,
320 purple_conversation_message_get_flags and
321 purple_conversation_message_get_timestamp to get information about a
323 * purple_conversation_get_message_history() to retrieve a list of
324 PurpleConvMessage's in a conversation, and
325 purple_conversation_clear_message_history to clear the history.
326 * purple_certificate_* functions in libpurple/certificate.h - "A public-key certificate API"
327 * purple_ssl_get_peer_certificates() and associated field in PurpleSslOps to retrieve a server's presented SSL certificate chain.
328 * PurpleSslConnection::verifier to provide a "how to verify the peer's certificates" callback to the SSL handlers. See certificate.h for more on this.
329 * purple_ssl_connect_with_host_fd() to create an SSL connection from a file descriptor and provide a hostname with it to authenticate the peer against.
332 * purple_prefs_load is now called within purple_prefs_init.
333 The UI no longer needs to call it.
334 * writing-im-msg now receives the conversation name as the who
335 argument if the caller of purple_conversation_write didn't
336 provide a value for who.
340 * pidgin_set_accessible_relations, sets up label-for and labelled-by
341 ATK relations (broken out from pidgin_set_accessible_label)
342 * pidgin_conv_attach_to_conversation, to reattach the Pidgin UI to a
344 * conversation-hiding and conversation-displayed signals.
345 * pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_new, pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_get_text
346 and pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_set_text
349 * pidgin_conversations_fill_menu now also adds a separator and a 'Show
350 All' item if there are more than one conversations in the list.
354 * finch_sound_is_enabled
355 * The reserved field in the FinchConv is now used to store information
356 about the conversation (using FinchConversationFlag)
357 * finch_account_dialog_show
360 * gnt_slider_set_small_step, gnt_slider_set_large_step to allow more
361 fine tuned updates of a GntSlider
362 * gnt_util_parse_xhtml_to_textview to parse XHTML strings in a
363 GntTextView (this works only if libxml2 is available)
365 version 2.1.1 (08/20/2007):
368 * PurpleAccountUiOps.request_authorize's authorize_cb and
369 deny_cb parameters now correctly have type
370 PurpleAccountRequestAuthorizationCb rather than GCallback.
371 (You'll want to change your UI's implementation's signature
372 to avoid warnings, and then remove some now-redundant casts
373 back to the proper type.)
375 version 2.1.0 (7/28/2007):
378 * purple-remote: added getstatus command
379 * conversation-extended-menu signal (See Doxygen docs)
380 * OPT_PROTO_SLASH_COMMANDS_NATIVE protocol option to indicate that
381 slash commands are "native" to the protocol
382 * PURPLE_MESSAGE_NO_LINKIFY message flag to indicate that the message
383 should not be auto-linkified
384 * PurpleEventLoopUiOps.timeout_add_seconds
385 UIs can now use better scheduling for whole-second timers. For
386 example, clients based on the glib event loop can now use
387 g_timeout_add_seconds.
388 * purple_blist_node_get_type
389 * purple_conversation_do_command
390 * purple_conversation_get_extended_menu
391 * purple_core_ensure_single_instance
392 This is for UIs to use to ensure only one copy is running.
393 * purple_dbus_is_owner
394 * purple_timeout_add_seconds
395 Callers should prefer this to purple_timeout_add for timers
396 longer than 1 second away. Be aware of the rounding, though.
397 * purple_xfer_get_remote_user
398 * purple_pounces_get_all_for_ui
399 * purple_prefs_get_children_names
400 * added displaying-email-notification and
401 displaying-emails-notification signals
404 * The documentation of the following functions now properly
405 declares that the returned value must not be modified or
406 freed, which was always the case:
407 * purple_accounts_get_all
408 * purple_connections_get_all
409 * purple_connections_get_connecting
410 * purple_conv_chat_get_ignored
411 * purple_conv_chat_get_users
413 * purple_get_conversations
415 * purple_notify_user_info_get_entries
416 * The following functions now return a GList* instead of a
417 const GList*, as const is not very useful with GLists. The

427 * purple_presence_get_statuses
428 * purple_request_field_list_set_selected now takes a GList*
429 instead of a const GList* for items, as const is not very
430 useful with GLists. The passed list is still not modified
432 * purple_presence_add_list now takes a GList* instead of a
433 const GList* for source_list, as const is not very useful with
434 GLists. The passed list is still not modified or freed.
438 * gtk_imhtml_setup_entry
439 * pidgin_create_window
440 * pidgin_retrieve_user_info and pidgin_retrieve_user_info_in_chat,

468 * gnt_tree_set_column_title
470 * "completion" signal for GntEntry
471 * "terminal-refresh" signal for GntWM, with a corresponding entry

485 * gnt_util_set_trigger_widget
488 * gnt_tree_get_rows() now returns a GList* instead of a const
489 GList*, as const is not very useful with GLists. The
490 returned value still must not be modified or freed.
491 * Instead of keeping an 'invisible' item, the GntTreeColumns now
492 maintain 'flags' with the appropriate flags set
494 version 2.0.2 (6/14/2007):

502 re-namespaced to match the new names of Pidgin, Finch, and libpurple.
503 All gaim_gtk_* functions are now pidgin_*, former libgaim functions are
504 now purple_*. Please consult our doxygen documentation for a complete
507 The gaim-compat.h header exists to provide an API compatibility layer
508 for libpurple functions. As an API compatibility layer, it must be
509 included at compile time to be of use.
512 * All the status stuff. Yay!
513 * gaim_prefs_connect_callback(), added handle parameter
514 * gtk_imhtml_toolbar now descends from GtkHBox making it easier to add your
516 * gaim_find_conversation_with_account, added a "type" parameter

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

574 * Notify API: GCallback -> GaimNotifyCloseCallback,
575 void *user_data -> gpointer user_data
576 * gaim_notify_searchresults_get_rows_count,

586 gaim_gtk_conversations_get_handle() for their handle.
587 * GAIM_NOTIFY_BUTTON_ADD_BUDDY to GAIM_NOTIFY_BUTTON_ADD
588 * conversation-switched: This signal has been moved from conversation to

625 This means that plugins must be updated to expect such a socket from
626 gaim_proxy_connect() and gaim_network_listen*().
627 * gaim_proxy_connect(): changed to return NULL on error and a pointer
628 to a GaimProxyConnectInfo object which can be used to cancel
629 connection attempts using gaim_proxy_connect_cancel(). Also added
630 a 'handle' parameter that can be used to cancel the connection
631 attempt using gaim_proxy_connect_cancel_with_handle().

656 for the user information
657 * gaim_buddy_icon_get_scale_size() and was changed to ALWAYS scale
658 the icon instead of only when icon_spec->scale_rules contains

662 additional parameter which is used to determine what kind of
663 scaling should be done, if any.

665 purple_request_choice_varg(), purple_request_action(),
666 purple_request_action_varg(), purple_request_fields(),
667 purple_request_yes_no(), purple_request_ok_cancel(),
668 purple_request_accept_cancel(), purple_request_file(), and
669 purple_request_folder() was changed to accept account, who, and
670 conversation parameters for associating the request with an account, a
671 buddy, or a conversation.

1028 #ifdef ENABLE_BINRELOC from prefix.h, it won't be
1029 loadable on a copy of Gaim compiled without binreloc
1030 support. In particular, watch out for the autoconf-like
1031 macros, and accidently including them through internal.h,
1032 which you probably shouldn't be including anyway.
