Hi,

I'm looking for the method that changes the account friendly name / alias. I don't find it in the account API.

Thx

It isn't in the account API, it is functionality exposed from the MSN prpl
as an account action via PURPLE_PLUGIN_ACTIONS.

Hi,

I found the "Set Friendly Name..." callback function, but I don't know I to use it...
I looked in the pidgin source and tried different stuff that don't work.

How exactly must the function be called ?

Thx

Cedric

What exactly did you try? In what way(s) did it not work? What code from
pidgin did you look at as an example?

I think this email might help you:

It discusses MySpace's import friends function and not MSN's set
friendly name function, but both functions are exposed to libpurple in
the same manner.

Hi,

Thanks for the answer.

Yes that's exactly what I did. Here is my code :

GList *actions;

GList *l;

PurplePluginAction *action = NULL;

actions = PURPLE_PLUGIN_ACTIONS(p, NULL);

for (l = actions; l != NULL; l = l->next)

{

if (l->data)

{

action = (PurplePluginAction *) l->data;

if ((strcmp(action->label, "Set Friendly Name...")) == 0)

{

action->callback(action);

}

}

}

If this is the good way to change the friendly name, how can I pass the name to the function ?


Thx

Calling this function causes the MSN protocol plugin to call
purple_request_input() to prompt the user to enter the friendly name
to use.  You can either show that request to the user and have them
respond to it, or you can intercept it and call the appropriate
callback function in your UI-specific request code (if you do this,
you should probably call the function from a timeout or idle
callback).

My program don't get prompted.
So you are saying that there is no way to just call the callback and  give the Friendly name I want to use ?

How don't see how that must be done in my code.


Thx

Hmm, that's strange.  Have you implemented a callback function for
PurpleRequestUiOps->request_input?

Yes, I believe this is the only way to set your MSN friendly name.
Yes, it is not ideal.  We should probably add a "set_nickname" or
"set_my_nickname" function or something to PurplePluginProtocolInfo.

No I didn't. But now that I did, the callback is indeed entering the request_input function. But I can see in the prototype of request_input anything corresponding to a parameter (friendly name) I want to change. I tried user_data but did'nt work.

Actualy I still have no idea how to do that. This is very frustrating because changing the user name must be a very basic option.

Thx

Hi,

I'm still trying to change the friendly name. What do I have to do in the PurpleRequestUiOps->request_input callback or elsewhere to change that name ?
I still don't understand how to use the "Set Friendly Name..." action.

Thx

Hi Cedric.  I imagine you've either already figured this out or given up, but...

You can look at how Pidgin implements the request_input callback as an
example.  Basically you'll need to call
ok_cb(user_data, "My Friendly Name");, and you may want to do that
after a 0 second timer (to return control back to the mainloop in case
MSN or some other code wants to finish something before the ok cb is
triggered.  This happens in pidgin/gtkrequest.c in the functions
pidgin_request_input() and input_response_cb().
