TpChannel objects provide convenient access to Telepathy channels.
Compared with a simple proxy for method calls, they add the following features:
* calling GetChannelType()
, GetInterfaces()
, GetHandles()
automatically
This section also documents the auto-generated C wrappers for the
Channel D-Bus interface. Of these, in general, only
tp_cli_channel_call_close()
and tp_cli_channel_run_close()
are useful (the
TpChannel object provides a more convenient API for the rest).
typedef struct _TpChannel TpChannel;
A proxy object for a Telepathy channel.
(Changed in 0.7.12: the layout of the structure is visible, allowing subclassing.)
Since 0.7.1
typedef struct { TpProxyClass parent_class; } TpChannelClass;
The class of a TpChannel. In addition to parent_class
there are four
pointers reserved for possible future use.
(Changed in 0.7.12: the layout of the structure is visible, allowing subclassing.)

|
Since 0.7.19
gboolean tp_channel_run_until_ready (TpChannel *self, GError **error, GMainLoop **loop);
If self
is ready for use (introspection has finished, etc.), return
immediately. Otherwise, re-enter the main loop until the channel either
becomes invalid or becomes ready for use, or until the main loop stored
via loop
is cancelled.
self : |
a channel |
error : |
if not NULL and FALSE is returned, used to raise an error
|
loop : |
if not NULL , a GMainLoop is placed here while it is being run
(so calling code can call g_main_loop_quit() to abort), and NULL is
placed here after the loop has been run
|
Returns : | TRUE if the channel has been introspected and is ready for use,
FALSE if the channel has become invalid.
|
Since 0.7.1
void (*TpChannelWhenReadyCb) (TpChannel *channel, const GError *error, gpointer user_data);
Signature of a callback passed to tp_channel_call_when_ready()
, which
will be called exactly once, when the channel becomes ready or
invalid (whichever happens first)

called when the channel becomes ready or invalidated, whichever happens first |
user_data : |
arbitrary user-supplied data passed to the callback |
Since 0.7.7
void tp_channel_init_known_interfaces (void);
Ensure that the known interfaces for TpChannel have been set up.
This is done automatically when necessary, but for correct
overriding of library interfaces by local extensions, you should
call this function before calling
tp_proxy_or_subclass_hook_on_interface_add()
with first argument
TP_TYPE_CHANNEL
.
Since 0.7.6
TpConnection* tp_channel_borrow_connection (TpChannel *self);
Returns the connection for this channel. The returned pointer is only valid
while this channel is valid - reference it with g_object_ref()
if needed.
self : |
a channel |
Returns : | the value of "connection" |
Since 0.7.12
GHashTable* tp_channel_borrow_immutable_properties (TpChannel *self);
Returns the immutable D-Bus properties of this channel, the same as "channel-properties".
The returned hash table should not be altered, and is not necessarily
valid after the main loop is next re-entered. Copy it with
g_boxed_copy()
(its type is TP_HASH_TYPE_QUALIFIED_PROPERTY_VALUE_MAP
)
if a copy that remains valid must be kept.
If the "channel-properties" property was not set during
construction (e.g. by calling tp_channel_new_from_properties()
), a
reasonable but possibly incomplete version will be made up from the values
of individual properties; reading this property repeatedly may yield
progressively more complete values until "channel-ready"
becomes TRUE
.
self : |
a channel |
Returns : | a GHashTable where the keys are strings, D-Bus interface name + "." + property name, and the values are GValue instances |
const gchar* tp_channel_get_channel_type (TpChannel *self);
Get the D-Bus interface name representing this channel's type, if it has been discovered.
This is the same as the "channel-type" property.
self : |
a channel |
Returns : | the channel type, if the channel is ready; either the channel
type or NULL , if the channel is not yet ready.
|
Since 0.7.12
GQuark tp_channel_get_channel_type_id (TpChannel *self);
Get the D-Bus interface name representing this channel's type, as a GQuark, if it has been discovered.
This is the same as the "channel-type" property, except that it is a GQuark rather than a string.
self : |
a channel |
Returns : | the channel type, if the channel is ready; either the channel type or 0, if the channel is not yet ready. |
Since 0.7.12
TpHandle tp_channel_get_handle (TpChannel *self, TpHandleType *handle_type);
Get the handle representing the contact, chatroom, etc. with which this channel communicates for its whole lifetime, or 0 if there is no such handle or it has not yet been discovered.
This is the same as the "handle" property.
If handle_type
is not NULL
, the type of handle is written into it.
This will be TP_UNKNOWN_HANDLE_TYPE
if the handle has not yet been
discovered, or TP_HANDLE_TYPE_NONE
if there is no handle with which this
channel will always communicate. This is the same as the
"handle-type" property.
self : |
a channel |
handle_type : |
if not NULL , used to return the type of this handle
|
Returns : | the handle |
Since 0.7.12
const gchar* tp_channel_get_identifier (TpChannel *self);
This channel's associated identifier, or NULL if no identifier or unknown.
The identifier is the result of inspecting "handle". This is the same as the "identifier" property.
self : |
a channel |
Returns : | the identifier |
Since 0.7.21
gboolean tp_channel_is_ready (TpChannel *self);
Returns the same thing as the "channel-ready" property.
self : |
a channel |
Returns : | TRUE if introspection has completed
|
Since 0.7.12
TpChannelGroupFlags tp_channel_group_get_flags (TpChannel *self);
Return the "group-flags" property (see the description of that property for notes on validity).
self : |
a channel |
Returns : | the group flags, or 0 |
Since 0.7.12
TpHandle tp_channel_group_get_handle_owner (TpChannel *self, TpHandle handle);
Synopsis (see below for further explanation):
- if self
is not a group or handle
is not a member of this channel,
result is undefined;
- if self
does not have "ready" = TRUE, result is undefined;
- if self
does not have flags that include TP_CHANNEL_FLAG_PROPERTIES
,
result is undefined;
- if handle
is channel-specific and its globally valid "owner" is known,
return that owner;
- if handle
is channel-specific and its globally valid "owner" is unknown,
return zero;
- if handle
is globally valid, return handle
itself
Some channels (those with flags that include
TP_CHANNEL_FLAG_CHANNEL_SPECIFIC_HANDLES
) have a concept of
"channel-specific handles". These are handles that only have meaning within
the context of the channel - for instance, in XMPP Multi-User Chat,
participants in a chatroom are identified by an in-room JID consisting
of the JID of the chatroom plus a local nickname.
Depending on the protocol and configuration, it might be possible to find out what globally valid handle (i.e. an identifier that you could add to your contact list) "owns" a channel-specific handle. For instance, in most XMPP MUC chatrooms, normal users cannot see what global JID corresponds to an in-room JID, but moderators can.
This is further complicated by the fact that channels with channel-specific handles can sometimes have members with globally valid handles (for instance, if you invite someone to an XMPP MUC using their globally valid JID, you would expect to see the handle representing that JID in the Group's remote-pending set).
This function's result is undefined unless the channel is ready
and its flags include TP_CHANNEL_FLAG_PROPERTIES
(an implementation
without extra D-Bus round trips is not possible using the older API).
self : |
a channel |
handle : |
a handle which is a member of this channel |
Returns : | the global handle that owns the given handle, or 0 |
Since 0.7.12
TpHandle tp_channel_group_get_self_handle (TpChannel *self);
Return the "group-self-handle" property (see the description of that property for notes on validity).
self : |
a channel |
Returns : | the handle representing the user, or 0 |
Since 0.7.12
const TpIntSet* tp_channel_group_get_local_pending (TpChannel *self);
If self
is ready and is a group, return a TpIntSet containing
its local-pending members.
If self
is a group but is not ready, the result may either be a set
of local-pending members, or NULL
.
If self
is not a group, return NULL
.
self : |
a channel |
Returns : | the local-pending members, or NULL
|
Since 0.7.12
const TpIntSet* tp_channel_group_get_members (TpChannel *self);
If self
is ready and is a group, return a TpIntSet containing
its members.
If self
is a group but is not ready, the result may either be a set
of members, or NULL
.
If self
is not a group, return NULL
.
self : |
a channel |
Returns : | the members, or NULL
|
Since 0.7.12
const TpIntSet* tp_channel_group_get_remote_pending (TpChannel *self);
If self
is ready and is a group, return a TpIntSet containing
its remote-pending members.
If self
is a group but is not ready, the result may either be a set
of remote-pending members, or NULL
.
If self
is not a group, return NULL
.
self : |
a channel |
Returns : | the remote-pending members, or NULL
|
Since 0.7.12
gboolean tp_channel_group_get_local_pending_info (TpChannel *self, TpHandle local_pending, TpHandle *actor, TpChannelGroupChangeReason *reason, const gchar **message);
If local_pending
is actually the handle of a local-pending contact,
write additional information into actor
, reason
and message
and return
TRUE
. The handle and message are not referenced or copied, and can only be
assumed to remain valid until the main loop is re-entered.
If local_pending
is not the handle of a local-pending contact,
write 0 into actor
, TP_CHANNEL_GROUP_CHANGE_REASON_NONE
into reason
and "" into message
, and return FALSE
.
self : |
a channel |
local_pending : |
the handle of a local-pending contact about whom more information is needed |
actor : |
either NULL or a location to return the contact who requested
the change
|
reason : |
either NULL or a location to return the reason for the change
|
message : |
either NULL or a location to return the user-supplied message
|
Returns : | TRUE if the contact is in fact local-pending
|
Since 0.7.12
#define TP_ERRORS_REMOVED_FROM_GROUP (tp_errors_removed_from_group_quark ())
GError domain representing the local user being removed from a channel
with the Group interface. The code
in a GError with this domain must
be a member of TpChannelGroupChangeReason.
This error may be raised on non-Group channels with certain reason codes
if there's no better error code to use (mainly
TP_CHANNEL_GROUP_CHANGE_REASON_NONE
).
This macro expands to a function call returning a GQuark.
Since 0.7.1
TpProxyPendingCall* tp_cli_channel_call_close (TpChannel *proxy, gint timeout_ms, tp_cli_channel_callback_for_close callback, gpointer user_data, GDestroyNotify destroy, GObject *weak_object);
Start a Close method call.
Request that the channel be closed. This is not the case until the <tp:member-ref>Closed</tp:member-ref> signal has been emitted, and depending on the connection manager this may simply remove you from the channel on the server, rather than causing it to stop existing entirely. Some channels such as contact list channels may not be closed.

gboolean tp_cli_channel_run_close (TpChannel *proxy, gint timeout_ms, GError **error, GMainLoop **loop);
Call the method Close and run the main loop until it returns. Before calling this method, you must add a reference to any borrowed objects you need to keep, and generally ensure that everything is in a consistent state.
Request that the channel be closed. This is not the case until the <tp:member-ref>Closed</tp:member-ref> signal has been emitted, and depending on the connection manager this may simply remove you from the channel on the server, rather than causing it to stop existing entirely. Some channels such as contact list channels may not be closed.

gboolean tp_cli_channel_run_get_handle (TpChannel *proxy, gint timeout_ms, guint *out_Target_Handle_Type, guint *out_Target_Handle, GError **error, GMainLoop **loop);
Call the method GetHandle and run the main loop until it returns. Before calling this method, you must add a reference to any borrowed objects you need to keep, and generally ensure that everything is in a consistent state.
Returns the handle type and number if this channel represents a communication with a particular contact, room or server-stored list, or zero if it is transient and defined only by its contents. Clients SHOULD use the <tp:member-ref>TargetHandle</tp:member-ref> and <tp:member-ref>TargetHandleType</tp:member-ref> properties instead, falling back to this method only if necessary. <tp:rationale> The GetAll method lets clients retrieve all properties in one round-trip. </tp:rationale>

TpProxySignalConnection* tp_cli_channel_connect_to_closed (TpChannel *proxy, tp_cli_channel_signal_callback_closed callback, gpointer user_data, GDestroyNotify destroy, GObject *weak_object, GError **error);
Connect a handler to the signal Closed.
Emitted when the channel has been closed. Method calls on the channel are no longer valid after this signal has been emitted, and the connection manager may then remove the object from the bus at any point.

A GObject which will be weakly referenced; if it is destroyed, this callback will automatically be disconnected |
error : |
If not NULL , used to raise an error if NULL is
returned
|
Returns : | a TpProxySignalConnection containing all of the
above, which can be used to disconnect the signal; or
NULL if the proxy does not have the desired interface
or has become invalid.

"channel-properties"
property"channel-properties" GHashTable_gchararray+GValue_* : Read / Write / Construct Only
The immutable D-Bus properties of this channel, represented by a GHashTable where the keys are D-Bus interface name + "." + property name, and the values are GValue instances.
Read-only except during construction. If this is not provided
during construction, a reasonable (but possibly incomplete) version
will be made up from the values of individual properties; reading this
property repeatedly may yield progressively more complete values until
"channel-ready" becomes TRUE
.
"channel-ready"
property"channel-ready" gboolean : Read
Initially FALSE
; changes to TRUE
when introspection of the channel
has finished and it's ready for use.
By the time this property becomes TRUE
, the following will be true:
- "channel-type" set, unless introspection failed - "handle-type" and "handle" set, unless introspection failed - any extra interfaces will have been set up in TpProxy (i.e. "interfaces" contains at least all extra Channel interfaces)
In addition, if "interfaces" includes the Group interface:
- the initial value of the "group-self-handle" property will have been fetched and change notification will have been set up - the initial value of the "group-flags" property will have been fetched and change notification will have been set up
Change notification is via notify::channel-ready.
Default value: FALSE
"connection"
property"connection" TpConnection* : Read / Write / Construct Only
The TpConnection to which this TpChannel belongs. Used for e.g. handle manipulation.
"group-flags"
property"group-flags" guint : Read
If this channel is ready ("channel-ready") and is a group, TpChannelGroupFlags indicating the capabilities and behaviour of that group.
Otherwise, 0.
Change notification is via notify::group-flags or TpChannel::group-flags-changed.
Default value: 0
Since 0.7.12
"group-self-handle"
property"group-self-handle" guint : Read
If this channel is ready ("channel-ready") and is a group, and the user is a member of it, the TpHandle representing them in this group.
Otherwise, either a handle representing the user, or 0.
Change notification is via notify::group-self-handle.
Default value: 0
Since 0.7.12
"group-flags-changed"
