Pidgin and Finch: The Pimpin' Penguin IM Clients That're Good for the Soul

This file intends to list all changes to libpurple, Pidgin, and Finch's public
API. We sometimes forget to add changes to this file--sorry.

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

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

		Added:
		* Four entries in the GHashTable passed when joining
		  an XMPP chat room which allow the UI to request a limited
		  amount of history.  See XEP-0045 7.1.16 for details; the
		  entries are named history_maxchars, history_maxstanzas,

		  interpretable by purple_str_to_time, and the prpl takes care
		  of formatting the time properly.

	Pidgin:

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

version 2.6.6 (02/18/2010):
	libpurple:
		Changed:
		* purple_xfer_cancel_local is now called instead of
		  purple_xfer_request_denied if an error is found when selecting
		  a file to send. Request denied is still used when a receive
		  request is not allowed.
		* xmlnode_from_str now properly handles parsing an attribute which
		  contain "&lt;br&gt;", which were previously transformed into a
		  newline character (libxml2 unescapes all entities except
		  representations of '&', and libpurple's purple_unescape_html
		  converts "<br>" to a newline).

	Perl:
		Changed:
		* Corrected the package names for the PurpleProxyType and
		  PurpleLogReadFlags enums to have the correct number of colons
		  (from Purple::ProxyType::::<type> to Purple::ProxyType::<type>
		  and Purple::Log:ReadFlags::::<type> to
		  Purple::Log::ReadFlags::<type>)  (Chris Foote)

		  the current node.
		Changed:
		* Purple::XMLNode::get_child() will return the first child node if
		  passed "" or undef as the name of the node.

version 2.6.1 (08/18/2009):
	No changes

version 2.6.0 (08/18/2009):
	libpurple:
		Added:
		* PurpleMedia and PurpleMediaManager API
		* PURPLE_BLIST_NODE
		* PURPLE_GROUP
		* PURPLE_CONTACT
		* PURPLE_BUDDY
		* PURPLE_CHAT
		* Account signals (see account-signals.dox)
			* account-actions-changed
			* account-created
			* account-destroying
		* blist-node-added and blist-node-removed signals (see
		  blist-signals.dox)
		* Three Blist UI ops used to overload libpurple's built-in saving
		  of the buddy list to blist.xml. If a UI implements these, it probably
		  wants to add the buddies itself and not call purple_blist_load.
		* Three File Transfer UI ops used to overload libpurple's use of fread
		  and fwrite for saving a file locally. These allow a UI to stream a
		  file through a socket without buffering the file on the local disk.
		* Jabber plugin signals (see jabber-signals.dox)
		* purple_account_remove_setting
		* purple_buddy_destroy
		* purple_buddy_get_protocol_data
		* purple_buddy_set_protocol_data

		* purple_xfer_ui_ready
		* xmlnode_from_file
		* xmlnode_get_parent
		* xmlnode_set_attrib_full
		* PURPLE_STATUS_MOOD as a new PurpleStatusPrimitive

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

		Deprecated:
		* buddy-added and buddy-removed blist signals
		* purple_blist_destroy
		* purple_blist_new
		* purple_buddy_get_local_alias

	libgnt:
		Added:
		* GntProgressBar and functions (Saleem Abdulrasool)

	perl:
		Added:
		* Purple::XMLNode::get_name()

		Changed:
		* Made a bunch of functions act more perl-like. Call the new()
		  functions as Class->new(...) instead of Class::new(...):
			* Purple::Request::Fields::new
			* Purple::Request::Field::new
			* Purple::Request::Field::account_new

			* Purple::Request::Field::label_new
			* Purple::Request::Field::list_new
			* Purple::Request::Field::string_new
			* Purple::Request::Field::group_new
		* Make the XMLNode API more perl-like. Don't pass len
		  parameters and call them like:
			* $xmlnode->copy()
			* $xmlnode->to_str()
			* $xmlnode->to_formatted_str()
			* Purple::XMLNode::from_str(...)

		  This was necessary in order to maintain the current behavior
		  while fixing non-saveable statuses not to be saved.
		* xmlnode_get_prefix, xmlnode_to_str and xmlnode_to_formatted_str
		  now all take a const xmlnode* instead of an xmlnode*

	perl:
		Changed:
		* Purple::PluginPref->get_bounds no longer takes two integer
		  arguments it now returns two integers.

		Removed:
		* Removed a handful of string-related utility functions that
		  can generally be better handled with perl's built-in string
		  functions rather than using pidgin's:
			* Purple::Util::strcasereplace
			* Purple::Util::strcasestr
			* Purple::Util::strreplace
			* Purple::Util::str_strip_char
			* Purple::Util::chrreplace

version 2.3.0 (11/24/2007):
	libpurple:
		Added:
		* a PurpleConversation field and an alias field in PurpleConvMessage
		* account-authorization signals (see account-signals.dox for
		  details) (Stefan Ott)
		* libpurple/purple.h, which includes #define's and #include's
		  required to compile stand-alone plugins
		* PURPLE_STATUS_TUNE as a new PurpleStatusPrimitive
		* purple_plugin_disable(), which is intended to be called when
		  a purple_plugin_unload()--which was called when a user tried
		  to unload a plugin--fails.  This then prevents the plugin
		  from being saved in the saved plugins list, so it'll won't
		  be loaded at the next startup.
		* PurpleDisconnectReason enumeration of machine-readable
		  types of connection error.
		* purple_connection_error_reason(), to be used by prpls
		  (instead of purple_connection_error() and setting
		  gc->wants_to_die) to report errors along with a
		  PurpleDisconnectReason.
		* PurpleConnectionUiOps.report_disconnect_reason, to be
		  implemented by UIs (rather than .report_disconnect) if
		  they want to use the reported PurpleDisconnectReason
		  to give a more specific error.
		* A connection-error signal, fired just after the UiOp is
		  called with the same information.
		* purple_connection_reason_is_fatal(), acting as a hint
		  to whether automatic reconnection should be attempted
		  after a connection error (rather than checking
		  gc->wants_to_die).
		* PurpleConnectionErrorInfo, a struct to hold a
		  PurpleConnectionError and a const char *description.
		* purple_account_get_current_error() to get the most recent
		  PurpleConnectionError and description (or NULL if the
		  account is happy with life), to allow bits of the UI to know
		  the last error without caching it themselves (as
		  PidginBuddyList does).
		* purple_account_clear_current_error() to reset an account's
		  error state to NULL.
		* An account-error-changed signal, firing when
		  purple_account_get_current_error()'s return value changes.

		* PidginMiniDialog, a Gtk widget-ified version of
		  pidgin_make_mini_dialog().

		* purple_util_init()
		* purple_util_uninit()

		* purple_network_listen_map_external() to temporarily disable
		  mapping ports externally via NAT-PMP or UPnP.

		Changed:
		* purple_plugin_unload() now honors the return value of a
		  plugin's unload function and can actually return FALSE now.
		* purple_plugin_unload() no longer does its own notifications
		  when a dependent plugin fails to unload.  The UI should do
		  something appropriate.

		* pidgin_make_mini_dialog() now declares its return type to be
		  GtkWidget * rather than void *.  This should not break any
		  existing code since any code using it must already rely on
		  the return type actually being GtkWidget * all along.

		Deprecated:
		* pidgin_dialogs_about()
		* pidgin_log_show_contact()
		* pidgin_log_show()
		* pidgin_plugin_dialog_show()
		* pidgin_pounce_editor_show()
		* pidgin_pounces_manager_show()
		* pidgin_syslog_show()

		* PidginBuddyList.connection_errors
		* purple_network_listen_map_external()

		* A new independant status type with PURPLE_STATUS_TUNE primitive, and
		  PURPLE_TUNE_ARTIST, PURPLE_TUNE_ALBUM and PURPLE_TUNE_TITLE
		  attributes.

		XMPP:
		* A new independant status type with PURPLE_STATUS_TUNE primitive, and
		  PURPLE_TUNE_{ARTIST, TITLE, ALBUM, GENRE, COMMENT, TRACK, TIME,
		  YEAR, URL} attributes.

	Finch:
		libgnt:
		* Added gnt_color_pair, which will try to intelligenty set text
		  attributes in place of colors if the terminal doesn't have color
		  support. (Bug: #3560) All future code should use gnt_color_pair
		  instead of COLOR_PAIR.
		* Added gnt_menuitem_set_id and gnt_menuitem_get_id to set and get the
		  string id of a menuitem respectively.
		* Added gnt_window_get_accel_item, which returns a the id of a menuitem
		  bound to a keystroke.
		* Added gnt_menu_get_item to get a menuitem of the given id from a
		  menu.
		* Added gnt_menuitem_activate, which triggers the 'activate' signal on
		  the menuitem and calls the callback function, if available.
		* Added GntEntryKillRing in GntEntry.
		* Added gnt_window_set_maximize and gnt_window_get_maximize, and
		  GntWindowFlags enum.

version 2.2.2 (10/23/2007):
	libpurple:
		Changed:
		* The size parameter of purple_util_write_data_to_file_absolute
		  has been changed to gssize instead of a size_t to correctly
		  indicate that -1 can be used for a nul-delimited string.
		* The documentation for purple_savedstatuses_get_popular used to
		  incorrectly claim that the active status is excluded from the
		  returned list. The documentation has been corrected. Also, the
		  function now returns a correct list when called with a value of 0.

version 2.2.0 (09/13/2007):
	libpurple:
		Added:
		* PURPLE_MESSAGE_INVISIBLE flag, which can be used by
		  purple_conv_im_send_with_flags to send a message, but not display it
		  in the conversation
		* serv_send_attention(), serv_got_attention(), as well as send_attention 
		  and attention_types in PurplePluginProtocolInfo. This new API is used
		  for zapping in MySpaceIM, buzzing in Yahoo, and nudging in MSN.
		* PurpleConvMessage structure to represent a message in a
		  conversation. purple_conversation_message_get_sender,
		  purple_conversation_message_get_message,
		  purple_conversation_message_get_flags and
		  purple_conversation_message_get_timestamp to get information about a
		  PurpleConvMessage.
		* purple_conversation_get_message_history() to retrieve a list of
		  PurpleConvMessage's in a conversation, and
		  purple_conversation_clear_message_history to clear the history.
		* purple_certificate_* functions in libpurple/certificate.h - "A public-key certificate API"
		* purple_ssl_get_peer_certificates() and associated field in PurpleSslOps to retrieve a server's presented SSL certificate chain.
		* PurpleSslConnection::verifier to provide a "how to verify the peer's certificates" callback to the SSL handlers. See certificate.h for more on this.
		* 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.

		Changed:
		* purple_prefs_load is now called within purple_prefs_init.
		  The UI no longer needs to call it.
		* writing-im-msg now receives the conversation name as the who
		  argument if the caller of purple_conversation_write didn't
		  provide a value for who.

	Pidgin:
		Added:
		* pidgin_set_accessible_relations, sets up label-for and labelled-by
		  ATK relations (broken out from pidgin_set_accessible_label)
		* pidgin_conv_attach_to_conversation, to reattach the Pidgin UI to a
		  conversation
		* conversation-hiding and conversation-displayed signals.
		* pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_new, pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_get_text
		  and pidgin_text_combo_box_entry_set_text

		Changed:
		* pidgin_conversations_fill_menu now also adds a separator and a 'Show
		  All' item if there are more than one conversations in the list.

	Finch:
		Added:
		* finch_sound_is_enabled
		* The reserved field in the FinchConv is now used to store information
		  about the conversation (using FinchConversationFlag)
		* finch_account_dialog_show

		libgnt:
		* gnt_slider_set_small_step, gnt_slider_set_large_step to allow more
		  fine tuned updates of a GntSlider
		* gnt_util_parse_xhtml_to_textview to parse XHTML strings in a
		  GntTextView (this works only if libxml2 is available)

version 2.1.1 (08/20/2007):
	libpurple:
		Changed:
		* PurpleAccountUiOps.request_authorize's authorize_cb and
		  deny_cb parameters now correctly have type
		  PurpleAccountRequestAuthorizationCb rather than GCallback.
		  (You'll want to change your UI's implementation's signature
		  to avoid warnings, and then remove some now-redundant casts
		  back to the proper type.)

version 2.1.0 (7/28/2007):
	libpurple:
		Added:
		* purple-remote: added getstatus command
		* conversation-extended-menu signal (See Doxygen docs)
		* OPT_PROTO_SLASH_COMMANDS_NATIVE protocol option to indicate that
		  slash commands are "native" to the protocol
		* PURPLE_MESSAGE_NO_LINKIFY message flag to indicate that the message
		  should not be auto-linkified
		* PurpleEventLoopUiOps.timeout_add_seconds
		    UIs can now use better scheduling for whole-second timers.  For
		    example, clients based on the glib event loop can now use
		    g_timeout_add_seconds.
		* purple_blist_node_get_type
		* purple_conversation_do_command
		* purple_conversation_get_extended_menu
		* purple_core_ensure_single_instance
		    This is for UIs to use to ensure only one copy is running.
		* purple_dbus_is_owner
		* purple_timeout_add_seconds
		    Callers should prefer this to purple_timeout_add for timers
		    longer than 1 second away.  Be aware of the rounding, though.
		* purple_xfer_get_remote_user
		* purple_pounces_get_all_for_ui
		* purple_prefs_get_children_names
		* added displaying-email-notification and 
 	          displaying-emails-notification signals

		Changed:
		* The documentation of the following functions now properly
		  declares that the returned value must not be modified or
		  freed, which was always the case:
			* purple_accounts_get_all
			* purple_connections_get_all
			* purple_connections_get_connecting
			* purple_conv_chat_get_ignored
			* purple_conv_chat_get_users
			* purple_get_chats
			* purple_get_conversations
			* purple_get_ims
			* purple_notify_user_info_get_entries
		* The following functions now return a GList* instead of a
		  const GList*, as const is not very useful with GLists.  The
		  returned value still must not be modified or freed:
			* purple_account_get_status_types
			* purple_mime_document_get_fields
			* purple_mime_document_get_parts
			* purple_mime_part_get_fields
			* purple_request_fields_get_required

			* purple_request_field_list_get_items
			* purple_status_type_get_attrs
			* purple_presence_get_statuses
		* purple_request_field_list_set_selected now takes a GList*
		  instead of a const GList* for items, as const is not very
		  useful with GLists.  The passed list is still not modified
		  or freed.
		* purple_presence_add_list now takes a GList* instead of a
		  const GList* for source_list, as const is not very useful with
		  GLists.  The passed list is still not modified or freed.

	Pidgin:
		Added:
		* gtk_imhtml_setup_entry
		* pidgin_create_window
		* pidgin_retrieve_user_info and pidgin_retrieve_user_info_in_chat,
		  shows immediate feedback when getting information about a user.

			* gnt_util_set_trigger_widget

			Changed:
			* gnt_tree_get_rows() now returns a GList* instead of a const
			  GList*, as const is not very useful with GLists.  The
			  returned value still must not be modified or freed.
			* Instead of keeping an 'invisible' item, the GntTreeColumns now
			  maintain 'flags' with the appropriate flags set

version 2.0.2 (6/14/2007):
	Pidgin:

version 2.0.0 (5/3/2007):
	Please note all functions, defines, and data structures have been
	re-namespaced to match the new names of Pidgin, Finch, and libpurple.
	All gaim_gtk_* functions are now pidgin_*, former libgaim functions are
	now purple_*.  Please consult our doxygen documentation for a complete
	reference.

	The gaim-compat.h header exists to provide an API compatibility layer
	for libpurple functions.  As an API compatibility layer, it must be
	included at compile time to be of use.

	Changed:

	  const char* instead of just a char*
	* gaim_gtk_prefs_labeled_entry, the "key" parameter is now a const char*
	  instead of just a char*
	* the add_buddy perl sub.  The sub now takes the account as the first
	  argument, and buddy and group as the second and third.  It also adds
	  the buddy to the server-side buddy list of the given account.
	* gaim_connection_new, gaim_account_connect and gaim_account_register no
	  longer return a GaimConnection
	* keep_alive in GaimConnection is renamed to keepalive
	* gaim_mkstemp, added a second argument, a boolean, of whether or not the
	  file is binary
	* gaim_log_logger_new, rewritten
	* gaim_conv_window_remove_conversation()'s last argument to be a
	  GaimConversation.

	* gtk_imhtml_scroll_to_end(): Added the smooth paramter
	* gaim_log_new(), added conv parameter
	* gaim_buddy_icon_new(), leaves a reference which the caller owns.  Use

	  new_arrivals and removed buddies.
	* chat_rename_user in GaimConversationUiOps, added new_alias
	* gaim_conv_chat_cb_new(), added alias. (pass NULL to get the same

	  Changed ssize_t to gssize
	* serv_got_im, serv_got_chat_in, serv_send_im and serv_chat_send all use
	  GaimMessageFlags instead of GaimConvImFlags / GaimConvChatFlags
	* All core<->prpl message passing now uses html.  This was previously true
	  for receiving messages, it's now also true for sending them.  prpls that

	* gaim_account_notify_added: No longer checks if there is a
	  GaimBuddy for the added user, that's left up to the prpls.  See the
	  documentation for this function and gaim_account_request_add.
	* gaim_accounts_reorder: new_index is now a gint instead of a size_t
	* displaying-message signals: displaying-[im|chat]-msg and
	  displayed-[im|chat]-msg signals are emitted for all messages
	  (ie, for received messages, sent messages, system messages, error
	  messages etc.), and the signals now have
	  gaim_gtk_conversations_get_handle() for their handle.
	* GAIM_NOTIFY_BUTTON_ADD_BUDDY to GAIM_NOTIFY_BUTTON_ADD
	* conversation-switched: This signal has been moved from conversation to
	                         the UI and the signal-handlers only receive the
	                         conversation that has been switched to.

	* GaimPrefCallback: val is now a gconstpointer instead of a gpointer
	* gtk_imhtml_get_current_format(): the arguments are now set to TRUE or
	  FALSE.  Previously they were set to TRUE or left alone.  Also, you
	  may now pass NULL if you're not interested in a specific formatting.
	* Smiley Themes: Backslashes must be backslash-escaped.
	* Plugins: Depedencies are now honored when unloading plugins.
	* gaim_markup_extract_info_field(): Added format_cb parameter.

	* gaim_plugin_action_new(): label is now const char *
	* gaim_plugin_pref_new_with_name(): name is now const char *
	* gaim_plugin_pref_new_with_label(): label is now const char *

	  This means that plugins must be updated to expect such a socket from
	  gaim_proxy_connect() and gaim_network_listen*().
	* gaim_proxy_connect(): changed to return NULL on error and a pointer
	  to a GaimProxyConnectInfo object which can be used to cancel
	  connection attempts using gaim_proxy_connect_cancel().  Also added
	  a 'handle' parameter that can be used to cancel the connection
	  attempt using gaim_proxy_connect_cancel_with_handle().
	* gaim_gethostbyname_async(): Renamed to gaim_dnsquery_a() and
	  changed to return a pointer to a data structure that can be
	  used to cancel the pending DNS query using gaim_dnsquery_destroy()
	* gaim_url_fetch(): Renamed to gaim_util_fetch_url() and changed
	  to return a pointer to a data structure that can be used to cancel
	  the pending HTTP request using gaim_util_fetch_url_cancel().
	  Corresponding callback has changed to accept this data structure
	  as its first argument, and to accept an error message as an
	  additional final argument.
	* gaim_gtk_create_imhtml(): Added sw_ret() parameter
	* gaim_account_get_log(): Added create parameter
	* GAIM_CMD_P_VERYHIGH is now GAIM_CMD_P_VERY_HIGH
	* gtk_imhtml_search_find(): Now wraps around to the top instead of
	  clearing the search at the end.
	* gaim_gtkxfer_dialog_show: Can now take NULL to show (and possibly
	  create) a default gtkxfer dialog.
	* CHAT_USERS_BUDDY_COLUMN became CHAT_USERS_WEIGHT_COLUMN, along with
	  a change in the values stored in the column.
	* gaim_find_buddies() returns a list of all buddies in the account if name
	  is NULL.
	* gaim_gtk_set_custom_buddy_icon() sets custom icon for a user.
	* Hid the definition of _GaimStringref, which already had a warning to
	  avoid accessing it directly.
	* notify_userinfo() UI op is passed a GaimNotifyUserInfo instead of a char*
	  for the user information
	* gaim_buddy_icon_get_scale_size() and was changed to ALWAYS scale
	  the icon instead of only when icon_spec->scale_rules contains
	  GAIM_ICON_SCALE_DISPLAY.  Callers should be changed to check the
