Convenience function to create a new account manager proxy. The returned
#TpAccountManager is not guaranteed to be prepared on return.
Its #TpProxy:factory will be a new #TpAutomaticClientFactory for
bus_daemon.
Use tp_account_manager_dup() instead if you want an account manager proxy on the starter or session bus (which is almost always the right thing for Telepathy).
Proxy for the D-Bus daemon
The D-Bus bus name for this object. Read-only except during construction.
The D-Bus daemon for this object (this object itself, if it is a TpDBusDaemon). Read-only except during construction.
The #TpSimpleClientFactory used to create this proxy, or %NULL if this proxy was not created through a factory.
Known D-Bus interface names for this object.
The D-Bus object path for this object. Read-only except during construction.
Creates a binding between source_property on source and target_property
on target.
Whenever the source_property is changed the target_property is
updated using the same value. For instance:
g_object_bind_property (action, "active", widget, "sensitive", 0);
Will result in the "sensitive" property of the widget #GObject instance to be updated with the same value of the "active" property of the action #GObject instance.
If flags contains %G_BINDING_BIDIRECTIONAL then the binding will be mutual:
if target_property on target changes then the source_property on source
will be updated as well.
The binding will automatically be removed when either the source or the
target instances are finalized. To remove the binding without affecting the
source and the target you can just call g_object_unref() on the returned
#GBinding instance.
Removing the binding by calling g_object_unref() on it must only be done if
the binding, source and target are only used from a single thread and it
is clear that both source and target outlive the binding. Especially it
is not safe to rely on this if the binding, source or target can be
finalized from different threads. Keep another reference to the binding and
use g_binding_unbind() instead to be on the safe side.
A #GObject can have multiple bindings.

Creates a binding between source_property on source and target_property
on target, allowing you to set the transformation functions to be used by
the binding.
This function is the language bindings friendly version of g_object_bind_property_full(), using #GClosures instead of function pointers.

Requests an asynchronous create of an account on the account manager
manager. When the operation is finished, callback will be called. You can
then call tp_account_manager_create_account_finish() to get the result of
the operation.
The #TpAccount returned by tp_account_manager_create_account_finish() will already have %TP_ACCOUNT_FEATURE_CORE prepared, along with all features previously passed to tp_simple_client_factory_add_account_features() for the account manager's #TpProxy:factory.
It is usually better to use #TpAccountRequest instead, particularly when using high-level language bindings.

Finishes an async create account operation, and returns a new #TpAccount object. It has %TP_ACCOUNT_FEATURE_CORE prepared, along with all features previously passed to tp_simple_client_factory_add_account_features() for the account manager's #TpProxy:factory.
The caller must keep a ref to the returned object using g_object_ref() if
it is to be kept beyond the lifetime of result.
a #GAsyncResult
Convert a D-Bus error name into a GError as if it was returned by a method on this proxy. This method is useful when D-Bus error names are emitted in signals, such as Connection.ConnectionError and Group.MembersChangedDetailed.

Returns a newly allocated #GList of reffed valid accounts in manager.
The list must be freed with g_list_free_full() and g_object_unref() after
used.
The returned #TpAccounts are guaranteed to have %TP_ACCOUNT_FEATURE_CORE prepared, along with all features previously passed to tp_simple_client_factory_add_account_features() for the account manager's #TpProxy:factory.
The list of valid accounts returned is not guaranteed to have been retrieved until %TP_ACCOUNT_MANAGER_FEATURE_CORE is prepared (tp_proxy_prepare_async() has returned). Until this feature has been prepared, an empty list (%NULL) will be returned.
Enable autostarting the account manager D-Bus service. This means that the account manager will be restarted if it disappears from the bus.
Lookup an account in the account manager manager. If the desired account
has already been ensured then the same object will be returned, otherwise
it will create a new #TpAccount and add it to manager. As a result, if
manager thinks that the account doesn't exist, this will still add it to
manager to avoid races.
The account will be constructed via this account manager's #TpProxy:factory (so it will be of an appropriate #TpAccount subclass if the factory returns one), but does not necessarily have any features prepared yet. Use tp_proxy_prepare_async() to prepare features, using the contents of tp_simple_client_factory_dup_account_features() as a parameter if you want to prepare the same features that would normally be used.
The caller must keep a ref to the returned object using g_object_ref() if it is to be kept.
the object path for an account
This function is intended for #GObject implementations to re-enforce a [floating][floating-ref] object reference. Doing this is seldom required: all #GInitiallyUnowneds are created with a floating reference which usually just needs to be sunken by calling g_object_ref_sink().
Increases the freeze count on object. If the freeze count is
non-zero, the emission of "notify" signals on object is
stopped. The signals are queued until the freeze count is decreased
to zero. Duplicate notifications are squashed so that at most one
#GObject::notify signal is emitted for each property modified while the
object is frozen.
This is necessary for accessors that modify multiple properties to prevent premature notification while the object is still being modified.
Gets a named field from the objects table of associations (see g_object_set_data()).
name of the key for that association
Gets the most available presence over all accounts in manager. This
function does not average presences across all accounts, but it merely
finds the "most available" presence. As a result, there is a guarantee
that there exists at least one account in manager with the returned
presence.
If no accounts are enabled or valid the output will be (%TP_CONNECTION_PRESENCE_TYPE_OFFLINE, "offline", "").
Since 0.17.5, if the only connected accounts does not implement %TP_IFACE_CONNECTION_INTERFACE_SIMPLE_PRESENCE, the output will be (%TP_CONNECTION_PRESENCE_TYPE_AVAILABLE, "available", "").
The return value of this function is not guaranteed to have been retrieved until tp_proxy_prepare_async() has finished; until then, the value will be the same as if no accounts are enabled or valid.
Gets a property of an object.
The value can be:
In general, a copy is made of the property contents and the caller is responsible for freeing the memory by calling g_value_unset().
Note that g_object_get_property() is really intended for language bindings, g_object_get() is much more convenient for C programming.
the name of the property to get
return location for the property value
This function gets back user data pointers stored via g_object_set_qdata().
A #GQuark, naming the user data pointer
Returns a newly allocated #GList of valid accounts in manager. The list
must be freed with g_list_free() after used. None of the accounts in the
returned list are guaranteed to be ready.
Note that the #TpAccounts in the returned #GList are not reffed before returning from this function. One could ref every item in the list like the following example: |[ GList *accounts; account = tp_account_manager_get_valid_accounts (manager); g_list_foreach (accounts, (GFunc) g_object_ref, NULL);
The returned #TpAccount<!-- -->s are guaranteed to have
%TP_ACCOUNT_FEATURE_CORE prepared, along with all features previously passed
to tp_simple_client_factory_add_account_features() for the account
manager's #TpProxy:factory.
The list of valid accounts returned is not guaranteed to have been retrieved
until %TP_ACCOUNT_MANAGER_FEATURE_CORE is prepared
(tp_proxy_prepare_async() has returned). Until this feature has
been prepared, an empty list (%NULL) will be returned.
Gets n_properties properties for an object.
Obtained properties will be set to values. All properties must be valid.
Warnings will be emitted and undefined behaviour may result if invalid
properties are passed in.

Return whether this proxy is known to have a particular interface. In versions older than 0.11.11, this was a macro wrapper around tp_proxy_has_interface_by_id().
For objects that discover their interfaces at runtime, this method will indicate that interfaces are missing until they are known to be present. In subclasses that define features for use with tp_proxy_prepare_async(), successfully preparing the "core" feature for that subclass (such as %TP_CHANNEL_FEATURE_CORE or %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CORE) implies that the interfaces are known.

Return whether this proxy is known to have a particular interface, by its quark ID. This is equivalent to using g_quark_to_string() followed by tp_proxy_has_interface(), but more efficient.

Checks whether object has a [floating][floating-ref] reference.
Return %TRUE if feature has been prepared successfully, or %FALSE if
feature has not been requested, has not been prepared yet, or is not
available on this object at all.
(For instance, if feature is %TP_CHANNEL_FEATURE_CHAT_STATES and self
is a #TpChannel in a protocol that doesn't actually implement chat states,
or is not a #TpChannel at all, then this method will return %FALSE.)
To prepare features, call tp_proxy_prepare_async().
a feature that is supported by self's class
Emits a "notify" signal for the property property_name on object.
When possible, eg. when signaling a property change from within the class that registered the property, you should use g_object_notify_by_pspec() instead.
Note that emission of the notify signal may be blocked with g_object_freeze_notify(). In this case, the signal emissions are queued and will be emitted (in reverse order) when g_object_thaw_notify() is called.
the name of a property installed on the class of object.
Emits a "notify" signal for the property specified by pspec on object.
This function omits the property name lookup, hence it is faster than g_object_notify().
One way to avoid using g_object_notify() from within the class that registered the properties, and using g_object_notify_by_pspec() instead, is to store the GParamSpec used with g_object_class_install_property() inside a static array, e.g.:
enum
{
PROP_0,
PROP_FOO,
PROP_LAST
};
static GParamSpec *properties[PROP_LAST];
static void
my_object_class_init (MyObjectClass *klass)
{
properties[PROP_FOO] = g_param_spec_int ("foo", "Foo", "The foo",
0, 100,
50,
G_PARAM_READWRITE);
g_object_class_install_property (gobject_class,
PROP_FOO,
properties[PROP_FOO]);
}
and then notify a change on the "foo" property with:
g_object_notify_by_pspec (self, properties[PROP_FOO]);
the #GParamSpec of a property installed on the class of object.
#TpProxy itself does not support any features, but subclasses like #TpChannel can support features, which can either be core functionality like %TP_CHANNEL_FEATURE_CORE, or extended functionality like %TP_CHANNEL_FEATURE_CHAT_STATES.
Proxy instances start with no features prepared. When features are requested via tp_proxy_prepare_async(), the proxy starts to do the necessary setup to use those features.
tp_proxy_prepare_async() always waits for core functionality of the proxy's class to be prepared, even if it is not specifically requested: for instance, because %TP_CHANNEL_FEATURE_CORE is core functionality of a #TpChannel,
|[ TpChannel *channel = ...;
tp_proxy_prepare_async (channel, NULL, callback, user_data);
is equivalent to
|[
TpChannel *channel = ...;
GQuark features[] = { TP_CHANNEL_FEATURE_CORE, 0 };
tp_proxy_prepare_async (channel, features, callback, user_data);
If a feature represents core functionality (like %TP_CHANNEL_FEATURE_CORE), failure to prepare it will result in tp_proxy_prepare_async() finishing unsuccessfully: if failure to prepare the feature indicates that the proxy is no longer useful, it will also emit #TpProxy::invalidated.
If a feature represents non-essential functionality (like %TP_CHANNEL_FEATURE_CHAT_STATES), or is not supported by the object at all, then failure to prepare it is not fatal: tp_proxy_prepare_async() will complete successfully, but tp_proxy_is_prepared() will still return %FALSE for the feature, and accessor methods for the feature will typically return a dummy value.
Some #TpProxy subclasses automatically start to prepare their core features when instantiated, and features will sometimes become prepared as a side-effect of other actions, but to ensure that a feature is present you must generally call tp_proxy_prepare_async() and wait for the result.
an array of desired features, ending with 0; %NULL is equivalent to an array containing only 0
if not %NULL, called exactly once, when the features have all been prepared or failed to prepare, or after the proxy is invalidated
Check for error in a call to tp_proxy_prepare_async(). An error here
generally indicates that either the asynchronous call was cancelled,
or self has emitted #TpProxy::invalidated.
the result passed to the callback of tp_proxy_prepare_async()
Increase the reference count of object, and possibly remove the
[floating][floating-ref] reference, if object has a floating reference.
In other words, if the object is floating, then this call "assumes ownership" of the floating reference, converting it to a normal reference by clearing the floating flag while leaving the reference count unchanged. If the object is not floating, then this call adds a new normal reference increasing the reference count by one.
Since GLib 2.56, the type of object will be propagated to the return type
under the same conditions as for g_object_ref().
Releases all references to other objects. This can be used to break reference cycles.
This function should only be called from object system implementations.
Iterates through the accounts in manager and requests the presence
(type, status and message). Note that the presence requested here is
merely a request, and if might not be satisfiable.
You can find the most available presence across all accounts by calling tp_account_manager_get_most_available_presence().
Setting a requested presence on all accounts will have no effect until tp_proxy_prepare_async() (or the older tp_account_manager_prepare_async()) has finished.

Each object carries around a table of associations from strings to pointers. This function lets you set an association.
If the object already had an association with that name, the old association will be destroyed.
Internally, the key is converted to a #GQuark using g_quark_from_string().
This means a copy of key is kept permanently (even after object has been
finalized) — so it is recommended to only use a small, bounded set of values
for key in your program, to avoid the #GQuark storage growing unbounded.
name of the key
data to associate with that key
Define the #TpAccountManager singleton that will be returned by tp_account_manager_dup().
This function may only be called before the first call to tp_account_manager_dup(), and may not be called more than once. Applications which use a custom #TpSimpleClientFactory and want the default #TpAccountManager to use that factory should call this after calling tp_account_manager_new_with_factory().
Unlike tp_account_manager_dup(), this function will keep an internal
reference to manager, so it will never be destroyed.
Note that manager must use the default #TpDBusDaemon as returned by
tp_dbus_daemon_dup()
Sets a property on an object.

Remove a specified datum from the object's data associations, without invoking the association's destroy handler.

This function gets back user data pointers stored via
g_object_set_qdata() and removes the data from object
without invoking its destroy() function (if any was
set).
Usually, calling this function is only required to update
user data pointers with a destroy notifier, for example:
void
object_add_to_user_list (GObject *object,
const gchar *new_string)
{
// the quark, naming the object data
GQuark quark_string_list = g_quark_from_static_string ("my-string-list");
// retrieve the old string list
GList *list = g_object_steal_qdata (object, quark_string_list);
// prepend new string
list = g_list_prepend (list, g_strdup (new_string));
// this changed 'list', so we need to set it again
g_object_set_qdata_full (object, quark_string_list, list, free_string_list);
}
static void
free_string_list (gpointer data)
{
GList *node, *list = data;
for (node = list; node; node = node->next)
g_free (node->data);
g_list_free (list);
}
Using g_object_get_qdata() in the above example, instead of g_object_steal_qdata() would have left the destroy function set, and thus the partial string list would have been freed upon g_object_set_qdata_full().
A #GQuark, naming the user data pointer
Reverts the effect of a previous call to
g_object_freeze_notify(). The freeze count is decreased on object
and when it reaches zero, queued "notify" signals are emitted.
Duplicate notifications for each property are squashed so that at most one #GObject::notify signal is emitted for each property, in the reverse order in which they have been queued.
It is an error to call this function when the freeze count is zero.
Decreases the reference count of object. When its reference count
drops to 0, the object is finalized (i.e. its memory is freed).
If the pointer to the #GObject may be reused in future (for example, if it is an instance variable of another object), it is recommended to clear the pointer to %NULL rather than retain a dangling pointer to a potentially invalid #GObject instance. Use g_clear_object() for this.
This function essentially limits the life time of the closure to
the life time of the object. That is, when the object is finalized,
the closure is invalidated by calling g_closure_invalidate() on
it, in order to prevent invocations of the closure with a finalized
(nonexisting) object. Also, g_object_ref() and g_object_unref() are
added as marshal guards to the closure, to ensure that an extra
reference count is held on object during invocation of the
closure. Usually, this function will be called on closures that
use this object as closure data.
#GClosure to watch
Check if tp_account_manager_set_default() has already successfully been called.
Returns an account manager proxy on the D-Bus daemon on which this process was activated (if it was launched by D-Bus service activation), or the session bus (otherwise). This account manager will always have the result of tp_dbus_daemon_dup() as its #TpProxy:dbus-daemon.
The returned #TpAccountManager is cached; the same #TpAccountManager object will be returned by this function repeatedly, as long as at least one reference exists. Note that the returned #TpAccountManager is not guaranteed to be ready on return.
If tp_account_manager_set_default() has been called successfully, that #TpAccountManager will be returned. Otherwise, a new #TpAccountManager will be created the first time this function is called, using a new #TpAutomaticClientFactory as its #TpProxy:factory.
Ensure that the known interfaces for TpAccountManager have been set up. This is done automatically when necessary, but for correct overriding of library interfaces by local extensions, you should call this function before calling tp_proxy_or_subclass_hook_on_interface_add() with first argument %TP_TYPE_ACCOUNT_MANAGER.
Find the #GParamSpec with the given name for an
interface. Generally, the interface vtable passed in as g_iface
will be the default vtable from g_type_default_interface_ref(), or,
if you know the interface has already been loaded,

any interface vtable for the interface, or the default vtable for the interface
name of a property to look up.
Add a property to an interface; this is only useful for interfaces that are added to GObject-derived types. Adding a property to an interface forces all objects classes with that interface to have a compatible property. The compatible property could be a newly created #GParamSpec, but normally g_object_class_override_property() will be used so that the object class only needs to provide an implementation and inherits the property description, default value, bounds, and so forth from the interface property.
This function is meant to be called from the interface's default
vtable initialization function (the class_init member of
#GTypeInfo.) It must not be called after after class_init has
been called for any object types implementing this interface.
If pspec is a floating reference, it will be consumed.

Convenience function to create a new account manager proxy. The returned #TpAccountManager is not guaranteed to be ready on return.
Should be used only by applications having their own #TpSimpleClientFactory subclass. Usually this should be done at application startup and followed by a call to tp_account_manager_set_default() to ensure other libraries/plugins will use this custom factory as well.

The Telepathy Account Manager stores real-time communication accounts and their configuration, places accounts online on request, and manipulates accounts' presence, nicknames and avatars.
#TpAccountManager is the "top level" object. Since 0.16 it always has a non-%NULL #TpProxy:factory, and its #TpProxy:factory will be propagated to all other objects like #TpAccountManager -> #TpAccount -> #TpConnection -> #TpContact and #TpChannel. This means that desired features set on that factory will be prepared on all those objects. If a #TpProxy:factory is not specified when the #TpAccountManager is constructed, it will use a #TpAutomaticClientFactory.
