50 * Added add_buddy_with_invite to PurplePluginProtocolInfo
51 * Added add_buddies_with_invite to PurplePluginProtocolInfo
52 * Added PurpleSrvTxtQueryUiOps which allow UIs to specify their
53 own mechanisms to resolve SRV and/or TXT queries. It works
54 similar to PurpleDnsQueryUiOps

73 version 2.7.11 (03/10/2011):
76 * Four entries in the GHashTable passed when joining
77 an XMPP chat room which allow the UI to request a limited
78 amount of history. See XEP-0045 7.1.16 for details; the
79 entries are named history_maxchars, history_maxstanzas,
80 history_seconds, and history_since. history_since must be
81 interpretable by purple_str_to_time, and the prpl takes care
82 of formatting the time properly.
85 * Purple::find_conversation_with_account
86 * Purple::Conversation::Chat::send_with_flags
87 * Purple::Conversation::IM::send_with_flags
89 version 2.7.10 (02/06/2011):
92 version 2.7.9 (12/26/2010):
95 version 2.7.8 (12/19/2010):
98 version 2.7.7 (11/23/2010):
101 version 2.7.6 (11/21/2010):
104 version 2.7.5 (10/31/2010):
107 version 2.7.4 (10/20/2010):
110 * Purple::BuddyList::Chat::get_components
113 * Purple::BuddyList::Chat::new now works properly. Thanks
114 to Rafael in devel@conference.pidgin.im for reporting and
117 version 2.7.3 (08/10/2010):
120 * purple_account_[gs]et_public_alias no longer crash when
121 called for a protocol that doesn't support the underlying
122 calls and the caller does not specify a failure callback.
126 * Exposed log-subsystem signals.
130 * Changing the visibility (gtk_widget_hide/show) of
131 the widgets in the GtkIMHtmlToolbar should now affect
132 the visibility of the entries in the 'lean' view
133 (the default toolbar view).
136 * pidgin_check_if_dir
140 * gnt_tree_row_get_key, gnt_tree_row_get_next,
141 gnt_tree_row_get_prev, gnt_tree_row_get_child and
142 gnt_tree_row_get_parent.
144 version 2.7.2 (07/21/2010):
147 version 2.7.1 (05/29/2010):
150 version 2.7.0 (05/12/2010):
153 * Account signals (see account-signals.dox); useful for D-Bus
156 * account-connection-error
157 * purple_account_get_name_for_display
158 * purple_account_get_privacy_type
159 * purple_account_get_public_alias
160 * purple_account_set_privacy_type
161 * purple_account_set_public_alias
162 * buddy-caps-changed blist signal
163 * Added media_caps to the PurpleBuddy struct
164 * purple_buddy_get_media_caps
165 * purple_buddy_set_media_caps
166 * purple_certificates_import for importing multiple
167 certificates from a single file (and corresponding
168 import_certificates member of PurpleCertificateScheme struct)
169 * autojoin connection signal
170 * purple_contact_get_group
171 * sent-attention conversation signal
172 * got-attention conversation signal
173 * ui-caps-changed media manager signal
174 * purple_media_candidate_copy
175 * purple_media_codec_copy
176 * purple_media_manager_get_backend_type
177 * purple_media_manager_set_backend_type
178 * PurpleMood struct in status.h
179 * purple_network_get_all_local_system_ips, which returns all
180 local IPs on the system. On systems with the getifaddrs()
181 function, this will return both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
182 (excluding link-local and loopback addresses). On others,
183 it returns just IPv4 addresses.
184 * purple_network_listen_family and
185 purple_network_listen_range_family. These will replace the
186 versions without _family in 3.0.0 and allow the caller to
187 specifically request either an IPv4 or IPv6 socket. IPv6 is
188 only supported if the getaddrinfo() function is available
189 at build-time (not the case on Windows, currently).
190 * purple_prpl_got_media_caps
191 * purple_request_action_with_icon

206 * pidgin_dialogs_translators (should not be used by anything but Pidgin)
207 * gtk_imhtmltoolbar_switch_active_conversation
208 * 'paste' signal for GtkIMHtml (more in gtkimhtml-signals.dox)
209 * 'drawing-buddy' signal for gtkblist (more in gtkblist-signals.dox)
211 version 2.6.6 (02/18/2010):
214 * purple_xfer_cancel_local is now called instead of
215 purple_xfer_request_denied if an error is found when selecting
216 a file to send. Request denied is still used when a receive
217 request is not allowed.
218 * xmlnode_from_str now properly handles parsing an attribute which
219 contain "<br>", which were previously transformed into a
220 newline character (libxml2 unescapes all entities except
221 representations of '&', and libpurple's purple_unescape_html
222 converts "<br>" to a newline).
226 * Corrected the package names for the PurpleProxyType and
227 PurpleLogReadFlags enums to have the correct number of colons
228 (from Purple::ProxyType::::<type> to Purple::ProxyType::<type>
229 and Purple::Log:ReadFlags::::<type> to
230 Purple::Log::ReadFlags::<type>) (Chris Foote)
232 version 2.6.5 (01/08/2010):
235 version 2.6.4 (11/29/2009):
238 version 2.6.3 (10/16/2009):
241 version 2.6.2 (09/05/2009):
244 * Purple::XMLNode::get_next(), which returns the next neighbor tag of
247 * Purple::XMLNode::get_child() will return the first child node if
248 passed "" or undef as the name of the node.
250 version 2.6.1 (08/18/2009):
253 version 2.6.0 (08/18/2009):
256 * PurpleMedia and PurpleMediaManager API
262 * Account signals (see account-signals.dox)
263 * account-actions-changed
266 * blist-node-added and blist-node-removed signals (see
268 * Three Blist UI ops used to overload libpurple's built-in saving
269 of the buddy list to blist.xml. If a UI implements these, it probably
270 wants to add the buddies itself and not call purple_blist_load.
271 * Three File Transfer UI ops used to overload libpurple's use of fread
272 and fwrite for saving a file locally. These allow a UI to stream a
273 file through a socket without buffering the file on the local disk.
274 * Jabber plugin signals (see jabber-signals.dox)
275 * purple_account_remove_setting
276 * purple_buddy_destroy
277 * purple_buddy_get_protocol_data

320 * purple_util_fetch_url_request_len_with_account
321 * purple_xfer_prpl_ready
322 * purple_xfer_ui_ready
325 * xmlnode_set_attrib_full
326 * PURPLE_STATUS_MOOD as a new PurpleStatusPrimitive
329 * xmlnode_remove_attrib now removes all attributes with the
330 same name. Previously, it would remove the first one found,
331 which was completely non-deterministic. If you want to remove
332 the attribute with no namespace, then use NULL with
333 xmlnode_remove_with_namespace.
334 * Plugins may now emit the jabber-sending-xmlnode signal in order
335 to send stanzas; this method is preferred to the prpl send_raw
336 function as other plugins listening to the signal see them.
337 * The conversation-updated signal with a PURPLE_CONV_UPDATE_TYPING
338 update type is emitted when receiving an IM. Previously, the
339 typing state was modified (and the buddy-typing-stopped signal
340 emitted), but this signal was not emitted.
341 * Added a client_type field in the get_ui_info core UI op. See
343 * Added introspection of signals exposed via the D-Bus API.
344 * purple_find_buddies is now more efficient in the case where
345 it is enumerating all the buddies for an account.
346 * purple_find_group is now more efficient for large numbers of groups.
347 * purple_find_conversation_with_account is more efficient for large
348 numbers of concurrent conversations.
349 * All DNS routines support internationalized domain names (IDNs) when
350 libpurple is compiled with GNU libidn.
351 * status is set before emitting signals in purple_xfer_set_status.
352 * Creating multiple distinct chats with the same name (i.e. "MSN Chat")
353 is deprecated and will be removed in libpurple 3.0.0.
354 * purple_xfer_start now accepts -1 as the fd parameter if the protocol
355 plugin will administer the transfer itself. 0 is still accepted for
356 backward compatibility since older versions of libpurple will not
360 * buddy-added and buddy-removed blist signals
361 * purple_blist_destroy

401 * pidgin_stock_id_from_presence
405 * GntProgressBar and functions (Saleem Abdulrasool)
409 * Purple::XMLNode::get_name()
412 * Made a bunch of functions act more perl-like. Call the new()
413 functions as Class->new(...) instead of Class::new(...):
414 * Purple::Request::Fields::new
415 * Purple::Request::Field::new
416 * Purple::Request::Field::account_new
417 * Purple::Request::Field::bool_new
418 * Purple::Request::Field::choice_new

421 * Purple::Request::Field::list_new
422 * Purple::Request::Field::string_new
423 * Purple::Request::Field::group_new
424 * Make the XMLNode API more perl-like. Don't pass len
425 parameters and call them like:
428 * $xmlnode->to_formatted_str()
429 * Purple::XMLNode::from_str(...)

442 version 2.5.5 (03/01/2009):
445 * purple_status_type_new now defaults "saveable" to TRUE.
446 This was necessary in order to maintain the current behavior
447 while fixing non-saveable statuses not to be saved.
448 * xmlnode_get_prefix, xmlnode_to_str and xmlnode_to_formatted_str
449 now all take a const xmlnode* instead of an xmlnode*
451 version 2.5.4 (01/12/2009):
454 * Purple::PluginPref->get_bounds no longer takes two integer
455 arguments it now returns two integers.

477 that the connection supports sending and receiving custom smileys.
478 * PurpleSmiley and the Smiley API.
479 * purple_serv_got_join_chat_failed
480 * chat-join-failed signal (see conversation-signals.dox)

544 * purple_gai_strerror.
545 * purple_major_version, purple_minor_version,
546 purple_micro_version variables are exported by version.h,
547 giving the version of libpurple in use at runtime.
548 * purple_util_set_current_song, purple_util_format_song_info

629 * Added gnt_tree_get_parent_key to get the key for the parent row.
631 version 2.3.0 (11/24/2007):
634 * a PurpleConversation field and an alias field in PurpleConvMessage
635 * account-authorization signals (see account-signals.dox for
636 details) (Stefan Ott)
637 * libpurple/purple.h, which includes #define's and #include's
638 required to compile stand-alone plugins
639 * PURPLE_STATUS_TUNE as a new PurpleStatusPrimitive
640 * purple_plugin_disable(), which is intended to be called when
641 a purple_plugin_unload()--which was called when a user tried
642 to unload a plugin--fails. This then prevents the plugin
643 from being saved in the saved plugins list, so it'll won't
644 be loaded at the next startup.
645 * PurpleDisconnectReason enumeration of machine-readable
646 types of connection error.
647 * purple_connection_error_reason(), to be used by prpls
648 (instead of purple_connection_error() and setting
649 gc->wants_to_die) to report errors along with a
650 PurpleDisconnectReason.
651 * PurpleConnectionUiOps.report_disconnect_reason, to be
652 implemented by UIs (rather than .report_disconnect) if
653 they want to use the reported PurpleDisconnectReason
654 to give a more specific error.
655 * A connection-error signal, fired just after the UiOp is
656 called with the same information.
657 * purple_connection_reason_is_fatal(), acting as a hint
658 to whether automatic reconnection should be attempted
659 after a connection error (rather than checking
661 * PurpleConnectionErrorInfo, a struct to hold a
662 PurpleConnectionError and a const char *description.
663 * purple_account_get_current_error() to get the most recent
664 PurpleConnectionError and description (or NULL if the
665 account is happy with life), to allow bits of the UI to know
666 the last error without caching it themselves (as
667 PidginBuddyList does).
668 * purple_account_clear_current_error() to reset an account's
670 * An account-error-changed signal, firing when
671 purple_account_get_current_error()'s return value changes.
673 * PidginMiniDialog, a Gtk widget-ified version of
674 pidgin_make_mini_dialog().
677 * purple_util_uninit()
679 * purple_network_listen_map_external() to temporarily disable
680 mapping ports externally via NAT-PMP or UPnP.
683 * purple_plugin_unload() now honors the return value of a
684 plugin's unload function and can actually return FALSE now.
685 * purple_plugin_unload() no longer does its own notifications
686 when a dependent plugin fails to unload. The UI should do
687 something appropriate.
689 * pidgin_make_mini_dialog() now declares its return type to be
690 GtkWidget * rather than void *. This should not break any
691 existing code since any code using it must already rely on
692 the return type actually being GtkWidget * all along.
695 * pidgin_dialogs_about()
696 * pidgin_log_show_contact()
698 * pidgin_plugin_dialog_show()
699 * pidgin_pounce_editor_show()
700 * pidgin_pounces_manager_show()
701 * pidgin_syslog_show()
703 * purple_connection_error()
704 * pidgin_blist_update_account_error_state()
705 * PidginBuddyList.connection_errors
706 * purple_network_listen_map_external()
709 * A new independant status type with PURPLE_STATUS_TUNE primitive, and
710 PURPLE_TUNE_ARTIST, PURPLE_TUNE_ALBUM and PURPLE_TUNE_TITLE
714 * A new independant status type with PURPLE_STATUS_TUNE primitive, and
715 PURPLE_TUNE_{ARTIST, TITLE, ALBUM, GENRE, COMMENT, TRACK, TIME,
716 YEAR, URL} attributes.
720 * Added gnt_color_pair, which will try to intelligenty set text
721 attributes in place of colors if the terminal doesn't have color
722 support. (Bug: #3560) All future code should use gnt_color_pair
723 instead of COLOR_PAIR.
724 * Added gnt_menuitem_set_id and gnt_menuitem_get_id to set and get the
725 string id of a menuitem respectively.
726 * Added gnt_window_get_accel_item, which returns a the id of a menuitem
727 bound to a keystroke.
728 * Added gnt_menu_get_item to get a menuitem of the given id from a
730 * Added gnt_menuitem_activate, which triggers the 'activate' signal on
731 the menuitem and calls the callback function, if available.
732 * Added GntEntryKillRing in GntEntry.
733 * Added gnt_window_set_maximize and gnt_window_get_maximize, and
736 version 2.2.2 (10/23/2007):
739 * The size parameter of purple_util_write_data_to_file_absolute
740 has been changed to gssize instead of a size_t to correctly
741 indicate that -1 can be used for a nul-delimited string.
742 * The documentation for purple_savedstatuses_get_popular used to
743 incorrectly claim that the active status is excluded from the
744 returned list. The documentation has been corrected. Also, the
745 function now returns a correct list when called with a value of 0.
747 version 2.2.0 (09/13/2007):
750 * PURPLE_MESSAGE_INVISIBLE flag, which can be used by
751 purple_conv_im_send_with_flags to send a message, but not display it
753 * serv_send_attention(), serv_got_attention(), as well as send_attention
754 and attention_types in PurplePluginProtocolInfo. This new API is used
755 for zapping in MySpaceIM, buzzing in Yahoo, and nudging in MSN.
756 * PurpleConvMessage structure to represent a message in a
757 conversation. purple_conversation_message_get_sender,
758 purple_conversation_message_get_message,
759 purple_conversation_message_get_flags and
760 purple_conversation_message_get_timestamp to get information about a
762 * purple_conversation_get_message_history() to retrieve a list of
763 PurpleConvMessage's in a conversation, and
764 purple_conversation_clear_message_history to clear the history.
765 * purple_certificate_* functions in libpurple/certificate.h - "A public-key certificate API"
766 * purple_ssl_get_peer_certificates() and associated field in PurpleSslOps to retrieve a server's presented SSL certificate chain.
767 * PurpleSslConnection::verifier to provide a "how to verify the peer's certificates" callback to the SSL handlers. See certificate.h for more on this.
768 * 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.
771 * purple_prefs_load is now called within purple_prefs_init.
772 The UI no longer needs to call it.
773 * writing-im-msg now receives the conversation name as the who
774 argument if the caller of purple_conversation_write didn't
775 provide a value for who.
779 * pidgin_set_accessible_relations, sets up label-for and labelled-by
780 ATK relations (broken out from pidgin_set_accessible_label)
781 * pidgin_conv_attach_to_conversation, to reattach the Pidgin UI to a
783 * conversation-hiding and conversation-displayed signals.
784 * pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_new, pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_get_text
785 and pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_set_text
788 * pidgin_conversations_fill_menu now also adds a separator and a 'Show
789 All' item if there are more than one conversations in the list.
793 * finch_sound_is_enabled
794 * The reserved field in the FinchConv is now used to store information
795 about the conversation (using FinchConversationFlag)
796 * finch_account_dialog_show
799 * gnt_slider_set_small_step, gnt_slider_set_large_step to allow more
800 fine tuned updates of a GntSlider
801 * gnt_util_parse_xhtml_to_textview to parse XHTML strings in a
802 GntTextView (this works only if libxml2 is available)
804 version 2.1.1 (08/20/2007):
807 * PurpleAccountUiOps.request_authorize's authorize_cb and
808 deny_cb parameters now correctly have type
809 PurpleAccountRequestAuthorizationCb rather than GCallback.
810 (You'll want to change your UI's implementation's signature
811 to avoid warnings, and then remove some now-redundant casts
812 back to the proper type.)
814 version 2.1.0 (7/28/2007):
817 * purple-remote: added getstatus command
818 * conversation-extended-menu signal (See Doxygen docs)
819 * OPT_PROTO_SLASH_COMMANDS_NATIVE protocol option to indicate that
820 slash commands are "native" to the protocol
821 * PURPLE_MESSAGE_NO_LINKIFY message flag to indicate that the message
822 should not be auto-linkified
823 * PurpleEventLoopUiOps.timeout_add_seconds
824 UIs can now use better scheduling for whole-second timers. For
825 example, clients based on the glib event loop can now use
826 g_timeout_add_seconds.
827 * purple_blist_node_get_type
828 * purple_conversation_do_command
829 * purple_conversation_get_extended_menu
830 * purple_core_ensure_single_instance
831 This is for UIs to use to ensure only one copy is running.
832 * purple_dbus_is_owner
833 * purple_timeout_add_seconds
834 Callers should prefer this to purple_timeout_add for timers
835 longer than 1 second away. Be aware of the rounding, though.
836 * purple_xfer_get_remote_user
837 * purple_pounces_get_all_for_ui
838 * purple_prefs_get_children_names
839 * added displaying-email-notification and
840 displaying-emails-notification signals
843 * The documentation of the following functions now properly
844 declares that the returned value must not be modified or
845 freed, which was always the case:
846 * purple_accounts_get_all
847 * purple_connections_get_all
848 * purple_connections_get_connecting
849 * purple_conv_chat_get_ignored
850 * purple_conv_chat_get_users
852 * purple_get_conversations
854 * purple_notify_user_info_get_entries
855 * The following functions now return a GList* instead of a
856 const GList*, as const is not very useful with GLists. The
857 returned value still must not be modified or freed:

859 * purple_mime_document_get_fields
860 * purple_mime_document_get_parts

866 * purple_presence_get_statuses
867 * purple_request_field_list_set_selected now takes a GList*
868 instead of a const GList* for items, as const is not very
869 useful with GLists. The passed list is still not modified
871 * purple_presence_add_list now takes a GList* instead of a
872 const GList* for source_list, as const is not very useful with
873 GLists. The passed list is still not modified or freed.
877 * gtk_imhtml_setup_entry
878 * pidgin_create_window
879 * pidgin_retrieve_user_info and pidgin_retrieve_user_info_in_chat,

917 * gnt_tree_set_column_width_ratio
918 * gnt_tree_set_column_resizable

923 * gnt_style_parse_bool
924 * gnt_util_set_trigger_widget
927 * gnt_tree_get_rows() now returns a GList* instead of a const
928 GList*, as const is not very useful with GLists. The
929 returned value still must not be modified or freed.
930 * Instead of keeping an 'invisible' item, the GntTreeColumns now
931 maintain 'flags' with the appropriate flags set
933 version 2.0.2 (6/14/2007):
936 * pidgin_dialogs_alias_contact: This will be removed in 3.0.0
937 unless there is sufficient demand to keep it.
939 version 2.0.0 (5/3/2007):
940 Please note all functions, defines, and data structures have been
941 re-namespaced to match the new names of Pidgin, Finch, and libpurple.
942 All gaim_gtk_* functions are now pidgin_*, former libgaim functions are
943 now purple_*. Please consult our doxygen documentation for a complete
946 The gaim-compat.h header exists to provide an API compatibility layer
947 for libpurple functions. As an API compatibility layer, it must be
948 included at compile time to be of use.
951 * All the status stuff. Yay!
952 * gaim_prefs_connect_callback(), added handle parameter
953 * gtk_imhtml_toolbar now descends from GtkHBox making it easier to add your
955 * gaim_find_conversation_with_account, added a "type" parameter

963 * gaim_connection_new, gaim_account_connect and gaim_account_register no
964 longer return a GaimConnection
965 * keep_alive in GaimConnection is renamed to keepalive

991 and FALSE respectively, to get the same behavior as before)
992 * chat_add_users in GaimConversationUiOps, added cbuddies and
993 new_arrivals and removed buddies.
994 * chat_rename_user in GaimConversationUiOps, added new_alias

1006 gaim_xfer_set_write_fnc(), gaim_xfer_read(), gaim_xfer_write():
1007 Changed ssize_t to gssize
1008 * serv_got_im, serv_got_chat_in, serv_send_im and serv_chat_send all use
1009 GaimMessageFlags instead of GaimConvImFlags / GaimConvChatFlags
1010 * All core<->prpl message passing now uses html. This was previously true
1011 for receiving messages, it's now also true for sending them. prpls that
1012 don't support html need to gaim_unescape_html() the message.
1013 * Notify API: GCallback -> GaimNotifyCloseCallback,
1014 void *user_data -> gpointer user_data
1015 * gaim_notify_searchresults_get_rows_count,
1016 gaim_notify_searchresults_get_columns_count: return type now guint
1017 * gaim_account_notify_added: No longer checks if there is a
1018 GaimBuddy for the added user, that's left up to the prpls. See the
1019 documentation for this function and gaim_account_request_add.
1020 * gaim_accounts_reorder: new_index is now a gint instead of a size_t
1021 * displaying-message signals: displaying-[im|chat]-msg and
1022 displayed-[im|chat]-msg signals are emitted for all messages
1023 (ie, for received messages, sent messages, system messages, error
1024 messages etc.), and the signals now have
1025 gaim_gtk_conversations_get_handle() for their handle.
1026 * GAIM_NOTIFY_BUTTON_ADD_BUDDY to GAIM_NOTIFY_BUTTON_ADD
1027 * conversation-switched: This signal has been moved from conversation to
1028 the UI and the signal-handlers only receive the
1029 conversation that has been switched to.

1041 attempt using gaim_network_listen_cancel()
1042 * GaimPrefCallback: val is now a gconstpointer instead of a gpointer
1043 * gtk_imhtml_get_current_format(): the arguments are now set to TRUE or
1044 FALSE. Previously they were set to TRUE or left alone. Also, you
1045 may now pass NULL if you're not interested in a specific formatting.
1046 * Smiley Themes: Backslashes must be backslash-escaped.
1047 * Plugins: Depedencies are now honored when unloading plugins.
1048 * gaim_markup_extract_info_field(): Added format_cb parameter.
1049 * gaim_markup_extract_info_field(): Changed GString parameter to a GaimNotifyUserInfo paramter.
1050 * gaim_str_to_time(): Added support for parsing the MM/DD/YYYY format.
1051 * gaim_plugin_action_new(): label is now const char *
1052 * gaim_plugin_pref_new_with_name(): name is now const char *
1053 * gaim_plugin_pref_new_with_label(): label is now const char *
1054 * gaim_plugin_pref_new_with_name_and_label(): name and label are

1061 * struct proto_chat_entry: label is now const char *
1062 * struct proto_chat_entry: identifier is now const char *
1063 * All network activity has been updated to use non-blocking sockets.
1064 This means that plugins must be updated to expect such a socket from
1065 gaim_proxy_connect() and gaim_network_listen*().
1066 * gaim_proxy_connect(): changed to return NULL on error and a pointer
1067 to a GaimProxyConnectInfo object which can be used to cancel
1068 connection attempts using gaim_proxy_connect_cancel(). Also added
1069 a 'handle' parameter that can be used to cancel the connection
1070 attempt using gaim_proxy_connect_cancel_with_handle().
1071 * gaim_gethostbyname_async(): Renamed to gaim_dnsquery_a() and
1072 changed to return a pointer to a data structure that can be
1073 used to cancel the pending DNS query using gaim_dnsquery_destroy()
1074 * gaim_url_fetch(): Renamed to gaim_util_fetch_url() and changed
1075 to return a pointer to a data structure that can be used to cancel
1076 the pending HTTP request using gaim_util_fetch_url_cancel().
1077 Corresponding callback has changed to accept this data structure
1078 as its first argument, and to accept an error message as an
1079 additional final argument.
1080 * gaim_gtk_create_imhtml(): Added sw_ret() parameter
1081 * gaim_account_get_log(): Added create parameter
1082 * GAIM_CMD_P_VERYHIGH is now GAIM_CMD_P_VERY_HIGH
1083 * gtk_imhtml_search_find(): Now wraps around to the top instead of
1084 clearing the search at the end.
1085 * gaim_gtkxfer_dialog_show: Can now take NULL to show (and possibly
1086 create) a default gtkxfer dialog.
1087 * CHAT_USERS_BUDDY_COLUMN became CHAT_USERS_WEIGHT_COLUMN, along with
1088 a change in the values stored in the column.
1089 * gaim_find_buddies() returns a list of all buddies in the account if name
1091 * gaim_gtk_set_custom_buddy_icon() sets custom icon for a user.
1092 * Hid the definition of _GaimStringref, which already had a warning to
1093 avoid accessing it directly.
1094 * notify_userinfo() UI op is passed a GaimNotifyUserInfo instead of a char*
1095 for the user information
1096 * gaim_buddy_icon_get_scale_size() and was changed to ALWAYS scale
1097 the icon instead of only when icon_spec->scale_rules contains
1098 GAIM_ICON_SCALE_DISPLAY. Callers should be changed to check the
1099 scale_rules before calling this function.
1100 * gaim_gtk_buddy_icon_get_scale_size() was changed to accept an
1101 additional parameter which is used to determine what kind of
1102 scaling should be done, if any.
1103 * purple_request_input(), purple_request_choice(),
1104 purple_request_choice_varg(), purple_request_action(),
1105 purple_request_action_varg(), purple_request_fields(),
1106 purple_request_yes_no(), purple_request_ok_cancel(),
1107 purple_request_accept_cancel(), purple_request_file(), and
1108 purple_request_folder() was changed to accept account, who, and
1109 conversation parameters for associating the request with an account, a
1110 buddy, or a conversation.
1111 * Significant changes to the buddy icon and imgstore APIs. If you
1112 were using any of it, it's best to look at the header files or
1113 Doxygen documentation, but here are some significant changes:
1114 purple_buddy_icon_new() now takes ownership of ("frees") icon_data
1115 purple_buddy_icon_set_data(): likewise for data
1116 purple_buddy_icon_set_for_user(): likewise for data
1117 purple_buddy_icon_set_for_user() now takes a checksum parameter
1118 purple_imgstore_add() was renamed to purple_imgstore_add_with_id()
1119 which takes ownership of data
1122 * gaim_gtk_sound_{get,set}_mute() (replaced by the /gaim/gtk/sound/mute
1124 * gaim_escape_html(const char *html) (use g_markup_escape_text(html, -1)
