TpSimpleClientFactory

TpSimpleClientFactory — a factory for TpContacts and plain subclasses of TpProxy

Description

This factory constructs various TpProxy subclasses as well as TpContact, which guarantees that at most one instance of those objects will exist for a given remote object or contact. It also stores the desired features for contacts and each type of proxy.

Note that the factory will not prepare the desired features: it is the caller's responsibility to do so. By default, only core features are requested.

Currently supported classes are TpAccount, TpConnection, TpChannel and TpContact. Those objects should always be acquired through a factory or a "larger" object (e.g. getting the TpConnection from a TpAccount), rather than being constructed directly.

One can subclass TpSimpleClientFactory and override some of its virtual methods to construct more specialized objects. See TpAutomaticClientFactory for a subclass which automatically constructs subclasses of TpChannel for common channel types.

An application using its own factory subclass would look like this: 

1

8
9

11

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  TpSimpleClientFactory *factory;
  TpAccountManager *manager;

  factory = my_factory_new ();
  manager = tp_account_manager_new_with_factory (factory);
  tp_account_manager_set_default (manager);

  ...
  tp_proxy_prepare_async (manager, am_features, callback, user_data);
  ...
}

The call to tp_account_manager_set_default() near the beginning of main() will ensure that any libraries or plugins which also use Telepathy (and call tp_account_manager_dup()) will share your TpAccountManager.

The class structure for TpSimpleClientFactory.

TpSimpleClientFactory maintains a cache of previously-constructed proxy objects, so the implementations of create_account, create_connection, create_channel, and create_contact may assume that a new object should be created when they are called. The default implementations create unadorned instances of the relevant classes; subclasses of the factory may choose to create more interesting proxy subclasses.

The default implementation of dup_channel_features returns TP_CHANNEL_FEATURE_CORE, plus all features passed to tp_simple_client_factory_add_channel_features() by the application. Subclasses may override this method to prepare more interesting features from subclasses of TpChannel, for instance. The default implementations of the other dup_x_features methods behave similarly.

tp_simple_client_factory_new ()

TpSimpleClientFactory * tp_simple_client_factory_new    (TpDBusDaemon *dbus);

Creates a new TpSimpleClientFactory instance. If dbus is NULL, tp_dbus_daemon_dup() will be used.

Returns :

tp_simple_client_factory_ensure_account ()

TpAccount *         tp_simple_client_factory_ensure_account
                                                        (TpSimpleClientFactory *self,

                                                         GError **error);

Returns a TpAccount proxy for the account at object_path. The returned TpAccount is cached; the same TpAccount object will be returned by this function repeatedly, as long as at least one reference exists.

Note that the returned TpAccount is not guaranteed to be ready; the caller is responsible for calling tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the desired features (as given by tp_simple_client_factory_dup_account_features()).

This function is rather low-level. tp_account_manager_dup_valid_accounts() and "validity-changed" are more appropriate for most applications.

self :

 a TpSimpleClientFactory object

object_path :

 the object path of an account

immutable_properties :

 the immutable properties of the account, or NULL. [transfer none][element-type utf8 GObject.Value]

error :

Returns :

                                                         const GQuark *features);

Add features to the desired features to be prepared on TpAccount objects. Those features will be added to the features already returned be tp_simple_client_factory_dup_account_features().

It is not necessary to add TP_ACCOUNT_FEATURE_CORE as it is already included by default.

Note that these features will not be added to existing TpAccount objects; the user must call tp_proxy_prepare_async() themself.

self :

 a TpSimpleClientFactory object

features :

 an array of desired features, ending with 0; NULL is equivalent to an array containing only 0. [transfer none][array zero-terminated=1][allow-none]

Returns a TpConnection proxy for the connection at object_path. The returned TpConnection is cached; the same TpConnection object will be returned by this function repeatedly, as long as at least one reference exists.

Note that the returned TpConnection is not guaranteed to be ready; the caller is responsible for calling tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the desired features (as given by tp_simple_client_factory_dup_connection_features()).

This function is rather low-level. "connection" is more appropriate for most applications.

Note that the returned TpChannel is not guaranteed to be ready; the caller is responsible for calling tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the desired features (as given by tp_simple_client_factory_dup_channel_features()).
