Pidgin and Finch: The Pimpin' Penguin IM Clients That're Good for the Soul
version 2.7.0 (??/??/????):
libpurple:
Added:
* Account signals (see account-signals.dox); useful for D-Bus
* account-signed-on
* account-signed-off
* account-connection-error
* purple_account_get_name_for_display
* purple_account_get_privacy_type
* purple_account_get_public_alias
* purple_account_set_privacy_type
* purple_account_set_public_alias
* buddy-caps-changed blist signal
* Added media_caps to the PurpleBuddy struct
* purple_buddy_get_media_caps
* purple_buddy_set_media_caps
* purple_certificates_import for importing multiple
certificates from a single file (and corresponding
import_certificates member of PurpleCertificateScheme struct)
* autojoin connection signal
* purple_contact_get_group
* sent-attention conversation signal
* got-attention conversation signal
* ui-caps-changed media manager signal
* purple_media_candidate_copy
* purple_media_codec_copy
* 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
* purple_request_action_with_icon
* purple_request_action_with_icon_varg
* purple_socket_get_family
* purple_socket_speaks_ipv4
* purple_unescape_text
* purple_uuid_random
* purple_xfer_get_thumbnail
* purple_xfer_get_thumbnail_mimetype
* purple_xfer_set_thumbnail
* purple_xfer_prepare_thumbnail
Pidgin:
Added:
* pidgin_dialogs_buildinfo (should not be used by anything but Pidgin)
* pidgin_dialogs_developers (should not be used by anything but Pidgin)
* pidgin_dialogs_translators (should not be used by anything but Pidgin)
* gtk_imhtmltoolbar_switch_active_conversation
* 'paste' signal for GtkIMHtml (more in gtkimhtml-signals.dox)
* 'drawing-buddy' signal for gtkblist (more in gtkblist-signals.dox)
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 "<br>", which were previously transformed into a
newline character (libxml2 unescapes all entities except
representations of '&', and libpurple's purple_unescape_html
converts "
" 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:::: to Purple::ProxyType::
and Purple::Log:ReadFlags:::: to
Purple::Log::ReadFlags::) (Chris Foote)
version 2.6.5 (01/08/2010):
No changes
version 2.6.4 (11/29/2009):
No changes
version 2.6.3 (10/16/2009):
No changes
version 2.6.2 (09/05/2009):
Perl:
Added:
* Purple::XMLNode::get_next(), which returns the next neighbor tag of
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_buddy_get_local_buddy_alias
* purple_blist_get_buddies
* purple_blist_get_ui_data
* purple_blist_set_ui_data

* purple_network_set_stun_server
* purple_network_set_turn_server
* purple_network_get_stun_ip
* purple_network_get_turn_ip
* purple_network_remove_port_mapping
* purple_plugins_get_search_paths
* purple_proxy_connect_udp
* purple_prpl_get_media_caps
* purple_prpl_got_account_actions

* purple_util_fetch_url_request_len_with_account
* purple_xfer_prpl_ready
* 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

* purple_status_type_add_attrs
* purple_status_type_add_attrs_vargs
* purple_status_type_get_primary_attr
* purple_status_set_attr_boolean
* purple_status_set_attr_int
* purple_status_set_attr_string
* purple_presence_add_status
* purple_presence_add_list
* purple_util_fetch_url_request_len
* xmlnode_set_attrib_with_namespace
* xmlnode_set_attrib_with_prefix

libgnt:
Added:
* GntProgressBar and functions (Saleem Abdulrasool)
perl:
Added:
* Purple::XMLNode::get_name()
Changed:

* $xmlnode->to_formatted_str()
* Purple::XMLNode::from_str(...)

version 2.5.5 (03/01/2009):
libpurple:
Changed:
* purple_status_type_new now defaults "saveable" to TRUE.
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*
version 2.5.4 (01/12/2009):
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

~/.gntrc
* Added gnt_tree_get_parent_key to get the key for the parent row.
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()
* purple_connection_error()
* pidgin_blist_update_account_error_state()
* PidginBuddyList.connection_errors
* purple_network_listen_map_external()

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 (??/??/????):
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_selected

* 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.

maintain 'flags' with the appropriate flags set
version 2.0.2 (6/14/2007):
Pidgin:
Deprecated:
* pidgin_dialogs_alias_contact: This will be removed in 3.0.0
unless there is sufficient demand to keep it.
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.

* serv_got_im, serv_got_chat_in, serv_send_im and serv_chat_send all use
GaimMessageFlags instead of GaimConvImFlags / GaimConvChatFlags

* All network activity has been updated to use non-blocking sockets.
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

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
scale_rules before calling this function.
