Pidgin

Hi Luke,

I downloaded 0.70, but I still can't connect to Yahoo ("wrong
password"). Am I the only one?

The other thing is that my ICQ is broken; I can receive ICQ messages
and answer them, but if I initiate one (by double clicking on an ICQ
user), I get a window saying "You have selected to open a direct IM
connection with <number>". When I click "connect", I get a "Unable to
open direct IM" message.

Any idea?

Thanks,

Yannick

The FAQ claims that SMS numbers can be added to the Buddy List for OSCAR
accounts (AIM, for instance), using the form +1XXXXXXXXXX.  They can indeed
be added, but they don't show up as "online" (making them somewhat useless
with "Show Offline" turned off), and adding them produces an error dialog
(tested under 0.70, noticed as far back as 0.65):

    Could not add the buddy +1XXXXXXXXXX for an unknown reason.  The most
    common reason for this is that you have the maximum number of allowed
    buddies in your buddy list.

This error will pop back up again every time gaim starts until the offending
SMS entry is manually removed from the buddy list.

I don't know the internals of the OSCAR protocol, so I'm not sure what's
going on.  Any hints?

Trying to adapt an old perl plugin to the new api, i use the following
signal:

sub plugin_load {
        my $plugin = shift;
        my $data = "";

        Gaim::signal_connect(Gaim::accounts::handle, "buddy-signed-on",$plugin, \&buddy_signed_on_cb, $data);
}

But when i start the plugin i get this error in console (nothing in
debug window):

** (gaim:31572): CRITICAL **: file signals.c: line 245 (signal_connect_common): assertion `instance != NULL' failed

And the plugin does not detect the signal.

Any idea?

Hi list,

Using 0.71cvs version of gaim.
Somehow the following snippet crashes gaim:

sub plugin_load {
    my $plugin = shift;
    my $data   = "test data";


    Gaim::signal_connect(Gaim::Conversations::handle, "sending-im-msg",
                         $plugin, \&sending_im_msg, $data);
}

sub sending_im_msg
{
    my $gc       = shift;
    my $recieved = shift;
    my $msg      = shift;
    my $data     = shift;


    Gaim::debug_info("PerlDummy","gc  =$gc\n");
    Gaim::debug_info("PerlDummy","rcv =$recieved\n");
    Gaim::debug_info("PerlDummy","msg =$msg\n");
    Gaim::debug_info("PerlDummy","data=$data\n");

#    $msg =~ s/\/foo/\"bla\"/g;

#    Gaim::debug_info("PerlDummy","msg =$msg\n");
}

Looking at cvs log of the perl-common.[ch] changing the $msg variable is
not (yet) working, but enabling the plugin crashes gaim. 

Any Ideas?

Hello all,...


...after having recently upgraded my Debian/sid system, there also
is a new version of gaim (0.70) installed, and it is not really
working the way I would expect it to. Up to now I used to work with
gaim 0.64, and, after switching to 0.70, my gaim window is
completely empty; gaim successfully connects to the accounts set up
in there (icq, aim, yahoo), but the buddy window is all empty. Did
the way the settings are stored in gaim somehow change in between
the releases? Is there a way to convert them to the new style? Is
this a problem related to gaim or to the debian package?

TIA, have a nice day everyone...

i went out for a few hours and this greeted me when i got back, notice 
the taskbar had to overflow onto another line since there were so many 
useless dialogs. :)

anyhow, 0.69 is really slick guys, i think you are 95% to 1.0 quality, 
IMHO ... looking forward to getting Yahoo back as soon as i install 0.70

Hi,

Just wanted to add I observed the same behaviour when talking to
somebody using kopete (he saw the second part of the header). msn
messenger seems to filter it out since nobody who uses that has ever 
noticed it with me.

greets,

I messed around with the /common/*.c files for a few days, and managed
to get a basic echo script working.  It hopefully illustrates the basics
of how this new API works:
------------------------
sub plugin_load {
	$plugin = shift ;
	my $data = "" ;
	Gaim::signal_connect(Gaim::Conversations::handle, "received-im-msg",
$plugin, \&echo, $data);
}

sub echo {
	$account = $_[0];#not sure what this is good for
	$sender = $_[1];
	$text = $_[2];
	$flag = $_[3]; #not sure what this is good for
	#Various debug prints to show what has been passed in
	Gaim::debug_info ( "\naccount:  ",  $account);
	Gaim::debug_info ( "\nsender:  ",  $sender);
	Gaim::debug_info ( "\ntext:  ",  $text);
	Gaim::debug_info ( "\nflag:  ",  $flag);

	@im_array = Gaim::ims(); #get the array of IM's
	for ($i = 0; $i <= $#im_array; $i++)
	{
		if ( Gaim::Conversation::get_name(
Gaim::Conversation::IM::get_conversation ( $im_array[$i] ) ) eq $sender
)
		#find the correct IM
		{
			Gaim::Conversation::IM::send($im_array[$i],$text); #echo text back to
correct IM
		}
	}
}
--------------------------------
Note:  The "displayed-im-msg" is the event that really should be used
for echoing (use the above code to see why).  However, it doesn't seem
to pass the sender name back to the callback, contrary to what the api
implies...
