1 Pidgin and Finch: The Pimpin' Penguin IM Clients That're Good for the Soul
3 version 2.7.3 (??/??/????):
6 * purple_account_[gs]et_public_alias no longer crash when
7 called for a protocol that doesn't support the underlying
8 calls and the caller does not specify a failure callback.
12 * Exposed log-subsystem signals.
16 * Changing the visibility (gtk_widget_hide/show) of
17 the widgets in the GtkIMHtmlToolbar should now affect
18 the visibility of the entries in the 'lean' view
19 (the default toolbar view).
23 * gnt_tree_row_get_key, gnt_tree_row_get_next,
24 gnt_tree_row_get_prev, gnt_tree_row_get_child and
25 gnt_tree_row_get_parent.
27 version 2.7.2 (07/21/2010):
30 version 2.7.1 (05/29/2010):
33 version 2.7.0 (05/12/2010):
36 * Account signals (see account-signals.dox); useful for D-Bus
39 * account-connection-error
40 * purple_account_get_name_for_display
41 * purple_account_get_privacy_type
42 * purple_account_get_public_alias
43 * purple_account_set_privacy_type
44 * purple_account_set_public_alias
45 * buddy-caps-changed blist signal
46 * Added media_caps to the PurpleBuddy struct
47 * purple_buddy_get_media_caps
48 * purple_buddy_set_media_caps
49 * purple_certificates_import for importing multiple
50 certificates from a single file (and corresponding
51 import_certificates member of PurpleCertificateScheme struct)
52 * autojoin connection signal
53 * purple_contact_get_group
54 * sent-attention conversation signal
55 * got-attention conversation signal
56 * ui-caps-changed media manager signal
57 * purple_media_candidate_copy
58 * purple_media_codec_copy
59 * purple_media_manager_get_backend_type
60 * purple_media_manager_set_backend_type
61 * PurpleMood struct in status.h
62 * purple_network_get_all_local_system_ips, which returns all
63 local IPs on the system. On systems with the getifaddrs()
64 function, this will return both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
65 (excluding link-local and loopback addresses). On others,
66 it returns just IPv4 addresses.
67 * purple_network_listen_family and
68 purple_network_listen_range_family. These will replace the
69 versions without _family in 3.0.0 and allow the caller to
70 specifically request either an IPv4 or IPv6 socket. IPv6 is
71 only supported if the getaddrinfo() function is available
72 at build-time (not the case on Windows, currently).
73 * purple_prpl_got_media_caps
74 * purple_request_action_with_icon
75 * purple_request_action_with_icon_varg
76 * purple_socket_get_family
77 * purple_socket_speaks_ipv4
78 * purple_unescape_text
80 * purple_xfer_get_thumbnail
81 * purple_xfer_get_thumbnail_mimetype
82 * purple_xfer_set_thumbnail
83 * purple_xfer_prepare_thumbnail
87 * pidgin_dialogs_buildinfo (should not be used by anything but Pidgin)
88 * pidgin_dialogs_developers (should not be used by anything but Pidgin)
89 * pidgin_dialogs_translators (should not be used by anything but Pidgin)
90 * gtk_imhtmltoolbar_switch_active_conversation
91 * 'paste' signal for GtkIMHtml (more in gtkimhtml-signals.dox)
92 * 'drawing-buddy' signal for gtkblist (more in gtkblist-signals.dox)
94 version 2.6.6 (02/18/2010):
97 * purple_xfer_cancel_local is now called instead of
98 purple_xfer_request_denied if an error is found when selecting
99 a file to send. Request denied is still used when a receive
100 request is not allowed.
101 * xmlnode_from_str now properly handles parsing an attribute which
102 contain "<br>", which were previously transformed into a
103 newline character (libxml2 unescapes all entities except
104 representations of '&', and libpurple's purple_unescape_html
105 converts "<br>" to a newline).
109 * Corrected the package names for the PurpleProxyType and
110 PurpleLogReadFlags enums to have the correct number of colons
111 (from Purple::ProxyType::::<type> to Purple::ProxyType::<type>
112 and Purple::Log:ReadFlags::::<type> to
113 Purple::Log::ReadFlags::<type>) (Chris Foote)
115 version 2.6.5 (01/08/2010):
118 version 2.6.4 (11/29/2009):
121 version 2.6.3 (10/16/2009):
124 version 2.6.2 (09/05/2009):
127 * Purple::XMLNode::get_next(), which returns the next neighbor tag of
130 * Purple::XMLNode::get_child() will return the first child node if
131 passed "" or undef as the name of the node.
133 version 2.6.1 (08/18/2009):
136 version 2.6.0 (08/18/2009):
139 * PurpleMedia and PurpleMediaManager API
145 * Account signals (see account-signals.dox)
146 * account-actions-changed
149 * blist-node-added and blist-node-removed signals (see
151 * Three Blist UI ops used to overload libpurple's built-in saving
152 of the buddy list to blist.xml. If a UI implements these, it probably
153 wants to add the buddies itself and not call purple_blist_load.
154 * Three File Transfer UI ops used to overload libpurple's use of fread
155 and fwrite for saving a file locally. These allow a UI to stream a
156 file through a socket without buffering the file on the local disk.
157 * Jabber plugin signals (see jabber-signals.dox)
158 * purple_account_remove_setting
159 * purple_buddy_destroy
160 * purple_buddy_get_protocol_data
161 * purple_buddy_set_protocol_data

202 * purple_utf8_strip_unprintables
203 * purple_util_fetch_url_request_len_with_account
204 * purple_xfer_prpl_ready
205 * purple_xfer_ui_ready
208 * xmlnode_set_attrib_full
209 * PURPLE_STATUS_MOOD as a new PurpleStatusPrimitive
212 * xmlnode_remove_attrib now removes all attributes with the
213 same name. Previously, it would remove the first one found,
214 which was completely non-deterministic. If you want to remove
215 the attribute with no namespace, then use NULL with
216 xmlnode_remove_with_namespace.
217 * Plugins may now emit the jabber-sending-xmlnode signal in order
218 to send stanzas; this method is preferred to the prpl send_raw
219 function as other plugins listening to the signal see them.
220 * The conversation-updated signal with a PURPLE_CONV_UPDATE_TYPING
221 update type is emitted when receiving an IM. Previously, the
222 typing state was modified (and the buddy-typing-stopped signal
223 emitted), but this signal was not emitted.
224 * Added a client_type field in the get_ui_info core UI op. See
226 * Added introspection of signals exposed via the D-Bus API.
227 * purple_find_buddies is now more efficient in the case where
228 it is enumerating all the buddies for an account.
229 * purple_find_group is now more efficient for large numbers of groups.
230 * purple_find_conversation_with_account is more efficient for large
231 numbers of concurrent conversations.
232 * All DNS routines support internationalized domain names (IDNs) when
233 libpurple is compiled with GNU libidn.
234 * status is set before emitting signals in purple_xfer_set_status.
235 * Creating multiple distinct chats with the same name (i.e. "MSN Chat")
236 is deprecated and will be removed in libpurple 3.0.0.
237 * purple_xfer_start now accepts -1 as the fd parameter if the protocol
238 plugin will administer the transfer itself. 0 is still accepted for
239 backward compatibility since older versions of libpurple will not
243 * buddy-added and buddy-removed blist signals
244 * purple_blist_destroy
246 * purple_buddy_get_local_alias
247 * purple_certificate_check_signature_chain

267 * gtk_imhtml_class_register_protocol
268 * gtk_imhtml_link_get_url, gtk_imhtml_link_get_text_tag,

279 * pidgin_notify_pounce_add
280 * PidginBlistTheme, PidginBlistThemeLoader API
281 * PidginIconTheme, PidginStatusIconTheme, PidginIconThemeLoader
283 * pidgin_stock_id_from_status_primitive
284 * pidgin_stock_id_from_presence
288 * GntProgressBar and functions (Saleem Abdulrasool)
292 * Purple::XMLNode::get_name()
295 * Made a bunch of functions act more perl-like. Call the new()
296 functions as Class->new(...) instead of Class::new(...):
297 * Purple::Request::Fields::new
298 * Purple::Request::Field::new
299 * Purple::Request::Field::account_new
300 * Purple::Request::Field::bool_new
301 * Purple::Request::Field::choice_new

303 * Purple::Request::Field::label_new
304 * Purple::Request::Field::list_new
305 * Purple::Request::Field::string_new
306 * Purple::Request::Field::group_new
307 * Make the XMLNode API more perl-like. Don't pass len
308 parameters and call them like:
311 * $xmlnode->to_formatted_str()
312 * Purple::XMLNode::from_str(...)

325 version 2.5.5 (03/01/2009):
328 * purple_status_type_new now defaults "saveable" to TRUE.
329 This was necessary in order to maintain the current behavior
330 while fixing non-saveable statuses not to be saved.
331 * xmlnode_get_prefix, xmlnode_to_str and xmlnode_to_formatted_str
332 now all take a const xmlnode* instead of an xmlnode*

337 * Purple::PluginPref->get_bounds no longer takes two integer
338 arguments it now returns two integers.
341 * Removed a handful of string-related utility functions that

360 that the connection supports sending and receiving custom smileys.
361 * PurpleSmiley and the Smiley API.
362 * purple_serv_got_join_chat_failed
363 * chat-join-failed signal (see conversation-signals.dox)

427 * purple_gai_strerror.
428 * purple_major_version, purple_minor_version,
429 purple_micro_version variables are exported by version.h,
430 giving the version of libpurple in use at runtime.
431 * purple_util_set_current_song, purple_util_format_song_info
432 * purple_ip_address_is_valid
433 * Some accessor functions to the Roomlist API:

510 * Added gnt_style_get_color to get a color pair from an entry in
512 * Added gnt_tree_get_parent_key to get the key for the parent row.
514 version 2.3.0 (11/24/2007):
517 * a PurpleConversation field and an alias field in PurpleConvMessage
518 * account-authorization signals (see account-signals.dox for
519 details) (Stefan Ott)
520 * libpurple/purple.h, which includes #define's and #include's
521 required to compile stand-alone plugins
522 * PURPLE_STATUS_TUNE as a new PurpleStatusPrimitive
523 * purple_plugin_disable(), which is intended to be called when
524 a purple_plugin_unload()--which was called when a user tried
525 to unload a plugin--fails. This then prevents the plugin
526 from being saved in the saved plugins list, so it'll won't
527 be loaded at the next startup.
528 * PurpleDisconnectReason enumeration of machine-readable
529 types of connection error.
530 * purple_connection_error_reason(), to be used by prpls
531 (instead of purple_connection_error() and setting
532 gc->wants_to_die) to report errors along with a
533 PurpleDisconnectReason.
534 * PurpleConnectionUiOps.report_disconnect_reason, to be
535 implemented by UIs (rather than .report_disconnect) if
536 they want to use the reported PurpleDisconnectReason
537 to give a more specific error.
538 * A connection-error signal, fired just after the UiOp is
539 called with the same information.
540 * purple_connection_reason_is_fatal(), acting as a hint
541 to whether automatic reconnection should be attempted
542 after a connection error (rather than checking
544 * PurpleConnectionErrorInfo, a struct to hold a
545 PurpleConnectionError and a const char *description.
546 * purple_account_get_current_error() to get the most recent
547 PurpleConnectionError and description (or NULL if the
548 account is happy with life), to allow bits of the UI to know
549 the last error without caching it themselves (as
550 PidginBuddyList does).
551 * purple_account_clear_current_error() to reset an account's
553 * An account-error-changed signal, firing when
554 purple_account_get_current_error()'s return value changes.
556 * PidginMiniDialog, a Gtk widget-ified version of
557 pidgin_make_mini_dialog().
560 * purple_util_uninit()
562 * purple_network_listen_map_external() to temporarily disable
563 mapping ports externally via NAT-PMP or UPnP.
566 * purple_plugin_unload() now honors the return value of a
567 plugin's unload function and can actually return FALSE now.
568 * purple_plugin_unload() no longer does its own notifications
569 when a dependent plugin fails to unload. The UI should do
570 something appropriate.
572 * pidgin_make_mini_dialog() now declares its return type to be
573 GtkWidget * rather than void *. This should not break any
574 existing code since any code using it must already rely on
575 the return type actually being GtkWidget * all along.
578 * pidgin_dialogs_about()
579 * pidgin_log_show_contact()
581 * pidgin_plugin_dialog_show()
582 * pidgin_pounce_editor_show()
583 * pidgin_pounces_manager_show()
584 * pidgin_syslog_show()
586 * purple_connection_error()
587 * pidgin_blist_update_account_error_state()
588 * PidginBuddyList.connection_errors
589 * purple_network_listen_map_external()
592 * A new independant status type with PURPLE_STATUS_TUNE primitive, and
593 PURPLE_TUNE_ARTIST, PURPLE_TUNE_ALBUM and PURPLE_TUNE_TITLE
597 * A new independant status type with PURPLE_STATUS_TUNE primitive, and
598 PURPLE_TUNE_{ARTIST, TITLE, ALBUM, GENRE, COMMENT, TRACK, TIME,
599 YEAR, URL} attributes.
603 * Added gnt_color_pair, which will try to intelligenty set text
604 attributes in place of colors if the terminal doesn't have color
605 support. (Bug: #3560) All future code should use gnt_color_pair
606 instead of COLOR_PAIR.
607 * Added gnt_menuitem_set_id and gnt_menuitem_get_id to set and get the
608 string id of a menuitem respectively.
609 * Added gnt_window_get_accel_item, which returns a the id of a menuitem
610 bound to a keystroke.
611 * Added gnt_menu_get_item to get a menuitem of the given id from a
613 * Added gnt_menuitem_activate, which triggers the 'activate' signal on
614 the menuitem and calls the callback function, if available.
615 * Added GntEntryKillRing in GntEntry.
616 * Added gnt_window_set_maximize and gnt_window_get_maximize, and
619 version 2.2.2 (??/??/????):
622 * The size parameter of purple_util_write_data_to_file_absolute
623 has been changed to gssize instead of a size_t to correctly
624 indicate that -1 can be used for a nul-delimited string.
625 * The documentation for purple_savedstatuses_get_popular used to
626 incorrectly claim that the active status is excluded from the
627 returned list. The documentation has been corrected. Also, the
628 function now returns a correct list when called with a value of 0.
630 version 2.2.0 (09/13/2007):
633 * PURPLE_MESSAGE_INVISIBLE flag, which can be used by
634 purple_conv_im_send_with_flags to send a message, but not display it
636 * serv_send_attention(), serv_got_attention(), as well as send_attention
637 and attention_types in PurplePluginProtocolInfo. This new API is used
638 for zapping in MySpaceIM, buzzing in Yahoo, and nudging in MSN.
639 * PurpleConvMessage structure to represent a message in a
640 conversation. purple_conversation_message_get_sender,
641 purple_conversation_message_get_message,
642 purple_conversation_message_get_flags and
643 purple_conversation_message_get_timestamp to get information about a
645 * purple_conversation_get_message_history() to retrieve a list of
646 PurpleConvMessage's in a conversation, and
647 purple_conversation_clear_message_history to clear the history.
648 * purple_certificate_* functions in libpurple/certificate.h - "A public-key certificate API"
649 * purple_ssl_get_peer_certificates() and associated field in PurpleSslOps to retrieve a server's presented SSL certificate chain.
650 * PurpleSslConnection::verifier to provide a "how to verify the peer's certificates" callback to the SSL handlers. See certificate.h for more on this.
651 * 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.
654 * purple_prefs_load is now called within purple_prefs_init.
655 The UI no longer needs to call it.
656 * writing-im-msg now receives the conversation name as the who
657 argument if the caller of purple_conversation_write didn't
658 provide a value for who.
662 * pidgin_set_accessible_relations, sets up label-for and labelled-by
663 ATK relations (broken out from pidgin_set_accessible_label)

666 * conversation-hiding and conversation-displayed signals.
667 * pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_new, pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_get_text
668 and pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_set_text
671 * pidgin_conversations_fill_menu now also adds a separator and a 'Show
672 All' item if there are more than one conversations in the list.
676 * finch_sound_is_enabled
677 * The reserved field in the FinchConv is now used to store information
678 about the conversation (using FinchConversationFlag)
679 * finch_account_dialog_show

683 fine tuned updates of a GntSlider
684 * gnt_util_parse_xhtml_to_textview to parse XHTML strings in a
685 GntTextView (this works only if libxml2 is available)
687 version 2.1.1 (08/20/2007):
690 * PurpleAccountUiOps.request_authorize's authorize_cb and
691 deny_cb parameters now correctly have type
692 PurpleAccountRequestAuthorizationCb rather than GCallback.
693 (You'll want to change your UI's implementation's signature
694 to avoid warnings, and then remove some now-redundant casts
695 back to the proper type.)
697 version 2.1.0 (7/28/2007):
700 * purple-remote: added getstatus command
701 * conversation-extended-menu signal (See Doxygen docs)
702 * OPT_PROTO_SLASH_COMMANDS_NATIVE protocol option to indicate that
703 slash commands are "native" to the protocol
704 * PURPLE_MESSAGE_NO_LINKIFY message flag to indicate that the message
705 should not be auto-linkified
706 * PurpleEventLoopUiOps.timeout_add_seconds

710 * purple_blist_node_get_type
711 * purple_conversation_do_command
712 * purple_conversation_get_extended_menu
713 * purple_core_ensure_single_instance
714 This is for UIs to use to ensure only one copy is running.
715 * purple_dbus_is_owner

720 * purple_pounces_get_all_for_ui
721 * purple_prefs_get_children_names
722 * added displaying-email-notification and

751 instead of a const GList* for items, as const is not very
752 useful with GLists. The passed list is still not modified
754 * purple_presence_add_list now takes a GList* instead of a
755 const GList* for source_list, as const is not very useful with
756 GLists. The passed list is still not modified or freed.

811 GList*, as const is not very useful with GLists. The
812 returned value still must not be modified or freed.
813 * Instead of keeping an 'invisible' item, the GntTreeColumns now
814 maintain 'flags' with the appropriate flags set

825 All gaim_gtk_* functions are now pidgin_*, former libgaim functions are
826 now purple_*. Please consult our doxygen documentation for a complete
829 The gaim-compat.h header exists to provide an API compatibility layer

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

988 purple_request_action_varg(), purple_request_fields(),
989 purple_request_yes_no(), purple_request_ok_cancel(),
990 purple_request_accept_cancel(), purple_request_file(), and
991 purple_request_folder() was changed to accept account, who, and
992 conversation parameters for associating the request with an account, a
993 buddy, or a conversation.
