Hi,
I'm running eJabberd and Yahoo Transport.
I notice that only some type of images are being retrieved and displayed
as "Share my Images", also known as avatars.
Yahoo allows two kind of pictures to share:
A) A customizable picture/character. Yahoo refers to them as
Avatars. You can create your own character/cartoon.
B) Any picture that you have in your computer.
Yahoo Transport only gets avatars type A (the customizable one) ... I
tried connecting Gajim to my ejabber server and the yahoo transport and
that's the way it works
My questions are:
- Any reason for this behavior?
- I've been trying to modify the code. I thought that the key was in
ylib.py:
if pay[each][213] == '1':
b = avatar.getavatar(pay[each][197], self.dumpProtocol)
if b != None and self.handlers.has_key('avatar'):
self.handlers['avatar'](self.fromjid,pay[each][7],b)
Analyzing the packets, I noticed that avatars type B have pay[each][213]
equals to 2.
However, the surprising/frustrating/funny part of all this is that when
I comment out any part of the code that makes a reference to the avatar,
the avatar is still been displayed ...
Any hint on how Yahoo Transport is dealing with avatars? Any
document/experience?
thank you very much,
Jean
