[gaim-migrate @ 10427] " When joining a jabber conference many jabber servers send a recap of the last 20 or so messages. If you have sounds enabled, this will result in either 20 sounds in row, or worse if mixing is available, a horrible mix of 20 overlapping sounds. These recap messages can be identifed be the presence of the "jabber:x:delay". This patch identifies delayed messages, passes that information through flags from the prpl to the core, and then on to the gui. Detailed changes: Add GAIM_MESSAGE_DELAYED to GaimMessageFlags to indicate a delayed message. Change gtkconv.c to not play sounds when either GAIM_MESSAGE_DELAYED or GAIM_MESSAGE_SYSTEM are set. Add GaimConvChatFlags, parallel to GaimConvImFlags, to pass flags from protocols to core. Currently contains two flags: GAIM_CONV_CHAT_WHISPER GAIM_CONV_CHAT_DELAYED Change fourth arg of serv_got_chat_in() from "int whisper" to "GaimConvChatFlags chatflags". Change jabber prpl to set delayed flag when the "jabber:x:delay" element is present. Change toc protocol since it uses the whisper flag." --Nathan Fredrickson Date: 2004-07-24 00:49 Sender: marv_sfAccepting Donations Logged In: YES user_id=790708 I'm not sure I like naming the flags "DELAYED". I mean that's okay inside jabber since that's what the jabber protocol refers to it as, but for the the GAIM_*_DELAYED flags, I think they should be named something else. I thought about NOSOUND, but I decided that was wrong, because the flag should say what kind of message it is, not what to do with it, that's up to the UI to decide. What's up with not playing sounds on GAIM_MESSAGE_SYSTEM? This sounds unrelated to this. Are there times when we want to play sounds on system messages? Date: 2004-07-24 09:13 Sender: noif Logged In: YES user_id=365548 I purposely did not use a name that implied what the UI should do with the flag. The only characteristic that makes these messages unique is that they've been stored in the server for some period of time and are not current. I'm open to a better flag name than "DELAYED"... I thought about "RECAP", but that seemed less generalized than "DELAYED". As for not playing sounds on GAIM_MESSAGE_SYSTEM, that can be removed if it's controversial. I think I slipped that in since the setting of the topic was still playing a sound every time you joined a jabber conference. I think we can change the flag name ourselves if something else is better. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>
