I strongly suspect CruiseControl is going to yell at me for this.
A voice chat API, GUI + mediastreamer. This is what I'm using for Google Talk.
This doesn't actually do anything at all. There's no code in the Jabber plugin yet
to use this API (although it Works For Me). All it will do is compile and link.
If you're lucky.
To build this, you should install oRTP from Linphone, Speex and iLBC (also
from linphone, I believe). To not build this, ./configure --disable-vv.
Most of the configure.ac and Makefile.am hackery was lifted right out of
Linphone with a few modifications. It seems to work if you have everything
installed or if you --disable-vv. I haven't really tested not having
everything installed and not --disabling-vv.
It's kinda funky to include all of mediastreamer in the source tree like this,
but linphone doesn't build it as a separate library. I'll probably wind up
writing them a patch to build it as a .so so we can link it dynamically instead.
This code certainly isn't finished. It'll adapt as I progress on the Google code,
but it's certainly of more use here in CVS than in my personal tree.

/** @page plugin-ids Plugin IDs @section Introduction Every plugin contains a unique identifier to prevent duplicate plugin loading and conflicts. This, which will be called a plugin ID from here on, must follow a specific format. This format categorizes a plugin and makes duplicate IDs unlikely. @section Format The basic format of a plugin ID is as follows: <tt><i>type</i>-<i>username</i>-<i>pluginname</i></tt> The @em type indicator specifies the type of plugin. This must be one of the following: - core - Core plugin, capable of being loaded in any program using libgaim. It must not use any UI-specific code. - prpl - Protocol plugin, providing additional protocols to connect to. - lopl - Loader plugin, which loads scripts as plugins (like Perl or TCL). - gtk - GTK+ 2.x plugin. It may use GTK+ code, but cannot use any window toolkit code (such as X11 or Win32). - gtk-x11 - GTK+ 2.x plugin using X11 code. - gtk-win32 - GTK+ 2.x plugin using Win32 code. - qpe - Gaim for Qtopia plugin. The @em username must be a unique identifier for that person. It @em should be your Gaim website user ID (registered <a href="http://gaim.sourceforge.net/register.php">here</a>). If for some reason you cannot register there (it shouldn't be a problem!), you can use your SourceForge ID. Do @em not leave this field blank. The @em pluginname is the name of your plugin. It can be whatever you like, though it's common to keep it all lowercase. Do not use spaces! If you want a space, use a '-'. Please do not put a version indicator in the ID. The GaimPlugin structure already has a field for this. @section plugin-db Plugin Database Although it doesn't exist yet, in time there will be a plugin database on the Gaim website, where users can download and install new plugins. Plugins will be accessed by your plugin ID, which is one reason why it must be unique. */ // vim: syntax=c tw=75 et
