The D-Bus bus name for this object. Read-only except during construction.
If true, presence subscription and publication can be changed using the RequestSubscription, AuthorizePublication and RemoveContacts methods.
Rational: link-local XMPP, presence is implicitly published to everyone in the local subnet, so the user cannot control their presence publication.
For this property to be valid, you must first call tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the feature %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CONTACT_LIST_PROPERTIES or %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CONTACT_LIST.
If this property is %TRUE, contacts may be reported as abusive to the server administrators by setting report_abusive to %TRUE when calling tp_connection_block_contacts_async().
For this property to be valid, you must first call tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the feature %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CONTACT_BLOCKING.

To wait for valid capability information, call tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the feature %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CAPABILITIES.
This connection's connection manager name.
This connection's connection manager name.
Initially %FALSE; changes to %TRUE when the connection has gone to CONNECTED status, introspection has finished and it's ready for use.
By the time this property becomes %TRUE, any extra interfaces will have been set up and the #TpProxy:interfaces property will have been populated.
This is similar to %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CONNECTED, except that once it has changed to %TRUE, it remains %TRUE even if the connection has been invalidated.
The names of all groups that currently exist. This may be a larger set than the union of all #TpContact:contact-groups properties, if the connection allows groups to be empty.
This property's value is not meaningful until the #TpConnection:contact-list-state property has become %TP_CONTACT_LIST_STATE_SUCCESS.
For this property to be valid, you must first call tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the feature %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CONTACT_GROUPS.
If true, presence subscriptions (in both directions) on this connection are stored by the server or other infrastructure.
If false, presence subscriptions on this connection are not stored.

The connection's machine-readable protocol name, such as "jabber", "msn" or "local-xmpp". Recommended names for most protocols can be found in the Telepathy D-Bus Interface Specification.
If true, the Message parameter to RequestSubscription is likely to be significant, and user interfaces SHOULD prompt the user for a message to send with the request; a message such as "I would like to add you to my contact list", translated into the local user's language, might make a suitable default.
For this property to be valid, you must first call tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the feature %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CONTACT_LIST_PROPERTIES or %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CONTACT_LIST.
A #TpContact representing the local user on this connection, or %NULL if not yet available.
If the local user's unique identifier changes (for instance by using /nick on IRC), this property will change to a different #TpContact object representing the new identifier, and #GObject::notify will be emitted.
The #TpContact object is guaranteed to have all of the features previously passed to tp_simple_client_factory_add_contact_features() prepared.
To wait for a non-%NULL self-contact (and other properties), call tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the feature %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CONNECTED.
The %TP_HANDLE_TYPE_CONTACT handle of the local user on this connection, or 0 if we don't know yet or if the connection has become invalid.
This may change if the local user's unique identifier changes (for instance by using /nick on IRC), in which case #GObject::notify will be emitted.
To wait for a valid self-handle (and other properties), call tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the feature %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CONNECTED.
This connection's status, or %TP_UNKNOWN_CONNECTION_STATUS if we don't know yet.
To wait for a valid status (and other properties), call tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the feature %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CORE.
Since version 0.11.3, the change to status %TP_CONNECTION_STATUS_CONNECTED is delayed slightly, until introspection of the connection has finished.

Binds the :status of self to the boolean property of another
object using a #GBinding such that the target_property will be set to
%TRUE when self is connected (and invert is %FALSE).
target_property will be synchronised immediately (%G_BINDING_SYNC_CREATE).
invert can be interpreted as analogous to %G_BINDING_INVERT_BOOLEAN.
For instance, this function can be used to bind the GtkWidget:sensitive property to only make a widget sensitive when the account is connected.
See g_object_bind_property() for more information.
the target #GObject
the property on target to bind (must be %G_TYPE_BOOLEAN)
%TRUE if you wish to invert the value of target_property (i.e. %FALSE if connected)
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.

a debug message that accompanied the error name, or %NULL
Disconnect the connection.
This method is intended for use by AccountManager implementations, such as Mission Control. To disconnect a connection managed by an AccountManager, either use tp_account_request_presence_async() or tp_account_set_enabled_async(), depending whether the intention is to put the account offline temporarily, or disable it longer-term.

Interpret the result of tp_connection_disconnect_async().
a #GAsyncResult
Create a #TpContact object and make any asynchronous method calls necessary
to ensure that all the features specified in features are ready for use
(if they are supported at all).
It is not an error to put features in features even if the connection
manager doesn't support them - users of this method should have a static
list of features they would like to use if possible, and use it for all
connection managers.
A strings representing the desired contact by its identifier in the IM protocol (an XMPP JID, SIP URI, MSN Passport, AOL screen-name etc.)

a #GAsyncResult
Try to return an existing contact object or create a new contact object immediately.
If tp_connection_has_immortal_handles() would return %TRUE and
identifier is non-%NULL, this function always succeeds.
On connections without immortal handles, it is not possible to guarantee
that handle remains valid without making asynchronous D-Bus calls, so
it might be necessary to delay processing of messages or other events
until a #TpContact can be constructed asynchronously, for instance by using
tp_connection_get_contacts_by_id().
Similarly, if identifier is %NULL, it might not be possible to find the
identifier for handle without making asynchronous D-Bus calls, so
it might be necessary to delay processing of messages or other events
until a #TpContact can be constructed asynchronously, for instance by using
tp_connection_get_contacts_by_handle().
a handle of type %TP_HANDLE_TYPE_CONTACT
the normalized identifier (XMPP JID, etc.) corresponding to handle, or %NULL if not known
Returns a newly allocated #GList of supported contact info fields for this connection. The list must be freed with tp_contact_info_spec_list_free().
To wait for valid supported fields, call tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the feature %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CONTACT_INFO.
This property cannot change after self goes to the Connected state.
Retrieves the user's contact list. In general, blocked contacts are not included in this list. The #TpContact objects returned are guaranteed to have all of the features previously passed to tp_simple_client_factory_add_contact_features() prepared.
Before calling this method, you must first call tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CONTACT_LIST feature, and verify that #TpConnection:contact-list-state is set to %TP_CONTACT_LIST_STATE_SUCCESS.
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.
Return the the #TpAccount associated with this connection. Will return %NULL
if self was not acquired from a #TpAccount via tp_account_get_connection(),
or if the account object got finalized in the meantime (#TpConnection does
not keep a strong ref on its #TpAccount).
To wait for valid avatar requirements, call tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the feature %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_AVATAR_REQUIREMENTS.
This property cannot change after self goes to the Connected state.
If self has a valid account balance, returns %TRUE and sets the variables
pointed to by balance, scale and currency to the appropriate fields
of the Balance.AccountBalance property.
The monetary value of the balance is expressed as a fixed-point number,
balance, with a decimal scale defined by scale; for instance a balance
of 1234 with scale of 2 represents a value of "12.34" in the currency
represented by currency.
Requires %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_BALANCE to be prepared.

Requires %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_BALANCE to be prepared.
Return (via a callback) any number of attributes of the given handles.
Since telepathy-glib version 0.13.8,
the handles will remain valid until connection becomes invalid
(signalled by #TpProxy::invalidated). In earlier versions, if hold
was %TRUE, the callback would hold a reference to them which could be
released with tp_connection_unref_handles().
This is a thin wrapper around the GetContactAttributes D-Bus method, and should be used in preference to tp_cli_connection_interface_contacts_call_get_contact_attributes(); mixing this function, tp_connection_hold_handles(), tp_connection_unref_handles(), and #TpContact with direct use of the RequestHandles, HoldHandles and GetContactAttributes D-Bus methods is unwise, as #TpConnection and #TpContact perform client-side reference counting of handles. The #TpContact API provides a higher-level abstraction which should usually be used instead.

handles that were valid. Invalid handles are simply omitted from the

To wait for valid contact info flags, call tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the feature %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CONTACT_INFO.
This property cannot change after self goes to the Connected state.
Returns a newly allocated #GList of supported contact info fields for this connection. The list must be freed with g_list_free() after used.
Note that the #TpContactInfoFieldSpecs in the returned #GList are not dupped before returning from this function. One could copy every item in the list using tp_contact_info_field_spec_copy().
To wait for valid supported fields, call tp_proxy_prepare_async() with the feature %TP_CONNECTION_FEATURE_CONTACT_INFO.
This property cannot change after self goes to the Connected state.

If the connection has disconnected, return the D-Bus error name with which it disconnected (in particular, this is %TP_ERROR_STR_CANCELLED if it was disconnected by a user request).
Otherwise, return %NULL, without altering details.
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.

Return a #TpContact representing the local user on this connection.
The returned object is not necessarily valid after the main loop is re-entered; ref it with g_object_ref() if you want to keep it.
Return the %TP_HANDLE_TYPE_CONTACT handle of the local user on this connection, or 0 if the self-handle is not known yet or the connection has become invalid (the TpProxy::invalidated signal).
The returned handle is not necessarily valid forever (the notify::self-handle signal will be emitted if it changes, which can happen on protocols such as IRC). Construct a #TpContact object if you want to track the local user's identifier in the protocol, or other information like their presence status, over time.
If reason is not %NULL it is set to the reason why "status" changed to its
current value, or %TP_CONNECTION_STATUS_REASON_NONE_SPECIFIED if unknown.

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 %TRUE if this connection is known to not destroy handles (#TpHandle) until it disconnects.
On such connections, if you know that a handle maps to a particular identifier now, then you can rely on that handle mapping to that identifier for the whole lifetime of the connection.
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.

Hold (ensure a reference to) the given handles, if they are valid.
If they are valid, the callback will later be called with the given handles; if not all of them are valid, the callback will be called with an error.
This function, along with tp_connection_unref_handles(), tp_connection_get_contact_attributes() and #TpContact, keeps a client-side reference count of handles; you should not use the RequestHandles, HoldHandles and GetContactAttributes D-Bus methods directly as well as these functions.

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.
If the object path of connection is in the correct form, set
protocol and cm_name, return TRUE. Otherwise leave them unchanged and
return FALSE.
#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.

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.

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().
Requests to refresh the #TpContact:contact-info property on each contact from

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
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.

a #GAsyncResult
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
Ensure that the known interfaces for TpConnection 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_CONNECTION.
Find the #GParamSpec with the given name for an

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.
