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).
26 * gnt_tree_row_get_key, gnt_tree_row_get_next,
27 gnt_tree_row_get_prev, gnt_tree_row_get_child and
28 gnt_tree_row_get_parent.
30 version 2.7.2 (07/21/2010):
33 version 2.7.1 (05/29/2010):
36 version 2.7.0 (05/12/2010):
39 * Account signals (see account-signals.dox); useful for D-Bus
42 * account-connection-error
43 * purple_account_get_name_for_display
44 * purple_account_get_privacy_type
45 * purple_account_get_public_alias
46 * purple_account_set_privacy_type
47 * purple_account_set_public_alias
48 * buddy-caps-changed blist signal
49 * Added media_caps to the PurpleBuddy struct
50 * purple_buddy_get_media_caps
51 * purple_buddy_set_media_caps
52 * purple_certificates_import for importing multiple
53 certificates from a single file (and corresponding
54 import_certificates member of PurpleCertificateScheme struct)
55 * autojoin connection signal
56 * purple_contact_get_group
57 * sent-attention conversation signal
58 * got-attention conversation signal
59 * ui-caps-changed media manager signal
60 * purple_media_candidate_copy
61 * purple_media_codec_copy
62 * purple_media_manager_get_backend_type
63 * purple_media_manager_set_backend_type
64 * PurpleMood struct in status.h
65 * purple_network_get_all_local_system_ips, which returns all
66 local IPs on the system. On systems with the getifaddrs()
67 function, this will return both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
68 (excluding link-local and loopback addresses). On others,
69 it returns just IPv4 addresses.
70 * purple_network_listen_family and
71 purple_network_listen_range_family. These will replace the
72 versions without _family in 3.0.0 and allow the caller to
73 specifically request either an IPv4 or IPv6 socket. IPv6 is
74 only supported if the getaddrinfo() function is available
75 at build-time (not the case on Windows, currently).
76 * purple_prpl_got_media_caps
77 * purple_request_action_with_icon
78 * purple_request_action_with_icon_varg
79 * purple_socket_get_family
80 * purple_socket_speaks_ipv4
81 * purple_unescape_text
83 * purple_xfer_get_thumbnail
84 * purple_xfer_get_thumbnail_mimetype
85 * purple_xfer_set_thumbnail
86 * purple_xfer_prepare_thumbnail
90 * pidgin_dialogs_buildinfo (should not be used by anything but Pidgin)
91 * pidgin_dialogs_developers (should not be used by anything but Pidgin)
92 * pidgin_dialogs_translators (should not be used by anything but Pidgin)
93 * gtk_imhtmltoolbar_switch_active_conversation
94 * 'paste' signal for GtkIMHtml (more in gtkimhtml-signals.dox)
95 * 'drawing-buddy' signal for gtkblist (more in gtkblist-signals.dox)
97 version 2.6.6 (02/18/2010):
100 * purple_xfer_cancel_local is now called instead of
101 purple_xfer_request_denied if an error is found when selecting
102 a file to send. Request denied is still used when a receive
103 request is not allowed.
104 * xmlnode_from_str now properly handles parsing an attribute which
105 contain "<br>", which were previously transformed into a
106 newline character (libxml2 unescapes all entities except
107 representations of '&', and libpurple's purple_unescape_html
108 converts "<br>" to a newline).
112 * Corrected the package names for the PurpleProxyType and
113 PurpleLogReadFlags enums to have the correct number of colons
114 (from Purple::ProxyType::::<type> to Purple::ProxyType::<type>
115 and Purple::Log:ReadFlags::::<type> to
116 Purple::Log::ReadFlags::<type>) (Chris Foote)
118 version 2.6.5 (01/08/2010):
121 version 2.6.4 (11/29/2009):
124 version 2.6.3 (10/16/2009):
127 version 2.6.2 (09/05/2009):
130 * Purple::XMLNode::get_next(), which returns the next neighbor tag of
133 * Purple::XMLNode::get_child() will return the first child node if
134 passed "" or undef as the name of the node.
136 version 2.6.1 (08/18/2009):
139 version 2.6.0 (08/18/2009):
142 * PurpleMedia and PurpleMediaManager API
148 * Account signals (see account-signals.dox)
149 * account-actions-changed
152 * blist-node-added and blist-node-removed signals (see
154 * Three Blist UI ops used to overload libpurple's built-in saving
155 of the buddy list to blist.xml. If a UI implements these, it probably
156 wants to add the buddies itself and not call purple_blist_load.
157 * Three File Transfer UI ops used to overload libpurple's use of fread
158 and fwrite for saving a file locally. These allow a UI to stream a
159 file through a socket without buffering the file on the local disk.
160 * Jabber plugin signals (see jabber-signals.dox)
161 * purple_account_remove_setting
162 * purple_buddy_destroy
163 * purple_buddy_get_protocol_data
164 * purple_buddy_set_protocol_data

176 * purple_conv_chat_invite_user
177 * purple_debug_is_unsafe

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

284 * PidginIconTheme, PidginStatusIconTheme, PidginIconThemeLoader
286 * pidgin_stock_id_from_status_primitive
287 * pidgin_stock_id_from_presence
291 * GntProgressBar and functions (Saleem Abdulrasool)
295 * Purple::XMLNode::get_name()
298 * Made a bunch of functions act more perl-like. Call the new()
299 functions as Class->new(...) instead of Class::new(...):
300 * Purple::Request::Fields::new
301 * Purple::Request::Field::new
302 * Purple::Request::Field::account_new
303 * Purple::Request::Field::bool_new
304 * Purple::Request::Field::choice_new

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

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

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

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

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

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

669 * conversation-hiding and conversation-displayed signals.
670 * pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_new, pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_get_text
671 and pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_set_text
674 * pidgin_conversations_fill_menu now also adds a separator and a 'Show
675 All' item if there are more than one conversations in the list.
679 * finch_sound_is_enabled
680 * The reserved field in the FinchConv is now used to store information
681 about the conversation (using FinchConversationFlag)
682 * finch_account_dialog_show

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

713 * purple_blist_node_get_type
714 * purple_conversation_do_command
715 * purple_conversation_get_extended_menu
716 * purple_core_ensure_single_instance
717 This is for UIs to use to ensure only one copy is running.
718 * purple_dbus_is_owner
719 * purple_timeout_add_seconds
720 Callers should prefer this to purple_timeout_add for timers
721 longer than 1 second away. Be aware of the rounding, though.
722 * purple_xfer_get_remote_user
723 * purple_pounces_get_all_for_ui
724 * purple_prefs_get_children_names
725 * added displaying-email-notification and
726 displaying-emails-notification signals

731 freed, which was always the case:
732 * purple_accounts_get_all
733 * purple_connections_get_all
734 * purple_connections_get_connecting

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

814 GList*, as const is not very useful with GLists. The
815 returned value still must not be modified or freed.
816 * Instead of keeping an 'invisible' item, the GntTreeColumns now
817 maintain 'flags' with the appropriate flags set
819 version 2.0.2 (6/14/2007):

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

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

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