Some instant messaging protocols allow discovery of the capabilities of a user's client. In Telepathy, this is represented by the ContactCapabilities interface, which lets applications advertise extra capabilities for the local user, and query the interfaces supported by their contacts.
The Capabilities interface is an older API with similar functionality.
This section documents the auto-generated C wrappers for the ContactCapabilities and Capabilities interfaces, used with TpConnection objects.

Afterwards, the channel dispatcher will call this method with a single-element list every time a Handler becomes available or unavailable.</p> </tp:rationale> <p>The connection manager MUST ignore any channel classes and client capabilities for which there is no representation in the protocol or no support in the connection manager.</p> |

Start a AdvertiseCapabilities method call.
<tp:docstring xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <p>Used by user interfaces to indicate which channel types they are able to handle on this connection. Because these may be provided by different client processes, this method accepts channel types to add and remove from the set already advertised on this connection. The type of advertised capabilities (create versus invite) is protocol-dependent and hence cannot be set by the this method. In the case of a client adding an already advertised channel type but with new channel type specific flags, the connection manager should simply add the new flags to the set of advertised capabilities.</p> <p>Upon a successful invocation of this method, the <tp:member-ref>CapabilitiesChanged</tp:member-ref> signal will be emitted for the user's own handle ( <tp:dbus-ref namespace="org.freedesktop.Telepathy">Connection.GetSelfHandle</tp:dbus-ref>) by the connection manager to indicate the changes that have been made. This signal should also be monitored to ensure that the set is kept accurate - for example, a client may remove capabilities or type specific capability flags when it exits which are still provided by another client.</p> <p>On connections managed by the <tp:dbus-ref namespace="org.freedesktop.Telepathy">ChannelDispatcher</tp:dbus-ref>, this method SHOULD NOT be used by clients other than the ChannelDispatcher itself.</p>
