Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: newfeature Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: filippo_a (filippo_a) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Attention request signals.. Initial Comment: Hi i was trying to write, just for fun, a plugin that shakes the window when a nudge arrives but the only way i've found to do it was listening to displayed-im-msg signal. Since i don't think that's the better way i've added two conversation signals that are emitted when msn receives and sends a nudge. They can also be emitted by yahoo buzz or whenever an "attention request" event is needed. The received-attention-request signal takes also a string as an argument to contain the buddy name who requested our attention. Please let me know if am i doing something wrong or if it isn't the right way to do it. I've also writed a small plugin to test the signals and make window shake on nudge.. let me know if you want to test it. Thanks Filippo ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: filippo_a (filippo_a) Date: 2007-03-02 21:38 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1733309 Originator: YES Hey, I've written another patch to better follow what rlaager said and what i've discussed with etan on irc.. I've added gaim_conv_bell_send and _receive functions to the core, and a new prpl_info function pointer send_bell. gaim_conv_bell_receive simply prints a system message and emits a bell receive signal that can be catched on plugins. gaim_conv_bell_send just prints a system message. prpl->send_bell is intended for future use for example bell sending button or something else. I've just changed the msn protocol only, still have to make yahoo use my core api. I don't know if other protocols support sending attention requests. I've moved part of msn_cmd_nudge to msn_send_bell leaving the command function just to manage command return value. As i recall that's all. Please let me know if it is the right way to fit your requests! Thanks Filippo PS. as i said before i've written also a sample plugin to make the window shake (please don't hate me for this :P) if you want to try it let me know!

The protocols would call some common function to deal with the receipt of a nudge or buzz, and the core would sent the signal and print the message to the conversation window. If you're going to start adding signals for this, I'd like to see the core functionality taken care of at the same time. If you want to talk about this more, feel free to catch me online. Given that you've written patches for them, the following protocols will probably work best for you: Yahoo: rlaager or MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=300235&aid=1672389&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
