(fd.o #17213) - -Deprecations: - -* TpBaseConnection implementations should use the new method - tp_base_connection_set_self_handle instead of setting the self_handle member - directly. To comply with spec 0.17.10, if the self-handle changes after the - status becomes CONNECTED, tp_base_connection_set_self_handle *must* be used. - -Enhancements: - -* Updated to specification 0.17.10, which includes the SelfHandleChanged signal - and SelfHandle property... - -* ... and then to specification 0.17.11, which includes the stable Requests - interface with the CreateChannel method (but not EnsureChannel, which is - planned for a future spec.). - -* Added support for the Requests interface to TpBaseConnection, using the new - interfaces TpChannelManager and TpExportableChannel (which are intended to - replace TpChannelFactoryIface and TpChannelIface). - -* Added some utility functions: tp_dbus_properties_mixin_make_properties_hash, - tp_strv_contains - -* with-session-bus.sh (used for the tests) optionally records dbus-monitor - output - -* telepathy-glib-uninstalled.pc is generated in source builds.
