Description

Some instant messaging protocols support "rich presence" functionality, such as geolocation (advertising the user's location to authorized contacts, and receiving contacts' locations).

This section documents the auto-generated C wrappers for the Location interface, used with TpConnection objects.

                                                         GError **error);

Connect a handler to the signal LocationUpdated.

Emitted when a contact's location changes or becomes known.

proxy :

 A TpConnection or subclass

callback :

 Callback to be called when the signal is received

user_data :

 User-supplied data for the callback

destroy :

 Destructor for the user-supplied data, which will be called when this signal is disconnected, or before this function returns NULL

weak_object :

 A GObject which will be weakly referenced; if it is destroyed, this callback will automatically be disconnected

error :

 If not NULL, used to raise an error if NULL is returned

Returns :

 a TpProxySignalConnection containing all of the above, which can be used to disconnect the signal; or NULL if the proxy does not have the desired interface or has become invalid.

arg_Location :

 The contact's location, or empty to indicate that nothing is known about the contact's location.

user_data :

 User-supplied data

weak_object :

 User-supplied weakly referenced object

Start a GetLocations method call.

<tp:docstring xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <p>Return the current locations of the given contacts, if they are already known. If any of the given contacts' locations are not known, request their current locations, but return immediately without waiting for a reply; if a reply with a non-empty location is later received for those contacts, the <tp:member-ref>LocationUpdated</tp:member-ref> signal will be emitted for them.</p> <tp:rationale> <p>This method is appropriate for &quot;lazy&quot; location finding, for instance displaying the location (if available) of everyone in your contact list.</p> </tp:rationale> <p>For backwards compatibility, if this method is called by a client whose &quot;interest count&quot; for this interface, as defined by <tp:dbus-ref namespace="org.freedesktop.Telepathy">Connection.AddClientInterest</tp:dbus-ref>, is zero, the Connection SHOULD behave as if AddClientInterest had been called for this interface just before that method call. Clients that do not explicitly call AddClientInterest SHOULD NOT call <tp:dbus-ref namespace="org.freedesktop.Telepathy">Connection.RemoveClientInterest</tp:dbus-ref> either.</p>

proxy :

 the TpProxy

timeout_ms :

 the timeout in milliseconds, or -1 to use the default

in_Contacts :

 Used to pass an 'in' argument: The contacts whose locations should be returned or signalled.

callback :

 called when the method call succeeds or fails; may be NULL to make a "fire and forget" call with no reply tracking

user_data :

 user-supplied data passed to the callback; must be NULL if callback is NULL

destroy :

 called with the user_data as argument, after the call has succeeded, failed or been cancelled; must be NULL if callback is NULL

weak_object :

 If not NULL, a GObject which will be weakly referenced; if it is destroyed, this call will automatically be cancelled. Must be NULL if callback is NULL

Returns :

 a TpProxyPendingCall representing the call in progress. It is borrowed from the object, and will become invalid when the callback is called, the call is cancelled or the TpProxy becomes invalid.

Signature of the callback called when a GetLocations method call succeeds or fails.

proxy :

 the proxy on which the call was made

out_Locations :

 Used to return an 'out' argument if error is NULL: The contacts' locations, if already known. Contacts whose locations are not already known are omitted from the mapping; contacts known to have no location information appear in the mapping with an empty Location dictionary.

error :

 NULL on success, or an error on failure

user_data :

 user-supplied data

Start a RequestLocation method call.

Return the current location of the given contact. If necessary, make a request to the server for up-to-date information, and wait for a reply. <tp:rationale> This method is appropriate for use in a &quot;Contact Information...&quot; dialog; it can be used to show progress information (while waiting for the method to return), and can distinguish between various error conditions. </tp:rationale>

Start a SetLocation method call.

Set the local user's own location.

proxy :

 the TpProxy

timeout_ms :

 the timeout in milliseconds, or -1 to use the default

in_Location :

 Used to pass an 'in' argument: The location to advertise. If the user wants to obscure their exact location by reducing the precision or accuracy, clients MUST do this themselves, rather than relying on the connection manager to do so. Clients that interact with more than one connection SHOULD advertise the same reduced-accuracy location to all of them, so that contacts cannot obtain an undesirably accurate location by assuming that random errors have been added and averaging the locations advertised on multiple connections.

callback :

 called when the method call succeeds or fails; may be NULL to make a "fire and forget" call with no reply tracking

user_data :

 user-supplied data passed to the callback; must be NULL if callback is NULL
