Typedef Documentation

typedef struct _PurpleBuddyIcon PurpleBuddyIcon

An opaque structure representing a buddy icon for a particular user on a particular PurpleAccount.

Instances are reference-counted; use purple_buddy_icon_ref() and purple_buddy_icon_unref() to take and release references.

Definition at line 34 of file buddyicon.h.

Function Documentation

PurpleAccount* purple_buddy_icon_get_account ( const PurpleBuddyIcon * icon )

Returns the buddy icon's account.

Parameters

icon	The buddy icon.

Returns: The account.

const char* purple_buddy_icon_get_checksum ( const PurpleBuddyIcon * icon )

Returns the buddy icon's checksum.

This function is really only for prpl use.

Parameters

icon	The buddy icon.

Returns: The checksum.

gconstpointer purple_buddy_icon_get_data	(	const PurpleBuddyIcon *	icon,
		size_t *	len
	)

Returns the buddy icon's data.

Parameters

icon	The buddy icon.
len	If not `NULL`, the length of the icon data returned will be set in the location pointed to by this.

Returns: A pointer to the icon data.

const char* purple_buddy_icon_get_extension ( const PurpleBuddyIcon * icon )

Returns an extension corresponding to the buddy icon's file type.

Parameters

icon	The buddy icon.

Returns: The icon's extension, "icon" if unknown, or NULL if the image data has disappeared.

char* purple_buddy_icon_get_full_path ( PurpleBuddyIcon * icon )

Returns a full path to an icon.

If the icon has data and the file exists in the cache, this will return a full path to the cache file.

In general, it is not appropriate to be poking in the icon cache directly. If you find yourself wanting to use this function, think very long and hard about it, and then don't.

Parameters

icon	The buddy icon

Returns: A full path to the file, or NULL under various conditions.

const char* purple_buddy_icon_get_username ( const PurpleBuddyIcon * icon )

Returns the buddy icon's username.

Parameters

icon	The buddy icon.

Returns: The username.

PurpleBuddyIcon* purple_buddy_icon_new	(	PurpleAccount *	account,
		const char *	username,
		void *	icon_data,
		size_t	icon_len,
		const char *	checksum
	)

Creates a new buddy icon structure and populates it.

If the buddy icon already exists, you'll get a reference to that structure, which will have been updated with the data supplied.

Parameters

account	The account the user is on.
username	The username the icon belongs to.
icon_data	The buddy icon data.
icon_len	The buddy icon length.
checksum	A protocol checksum from the prpl or `NULL`.

Returns: The buddy icon structure, with a reference for the caller.

PurpleBuddyIcon* purple_buddy_icon_ref ( PurpleBuddyIcon * icon )

Increments the reference count on a buddy icon.

Parameters

icon	The buddy icon.

Returns: icon.

void purple_buddy_icon_set_data	(	PurpleBuddyIcon *	icon,
		guchar *	data,

Parameters

icon	The buddy icon.
data	The buddy icon data, which the buddy icon code takes ownership of and will free.
len	The length of the data in data.
checksum	A protocol checksum from the prpl or `NULL`.

PurpleBuddyIcon* purple_buddy_icon_unref ( PurpleBuddyIcon * icon )

Decrements the reference count on a buddy icon.

If the reference count reaches 0, the icon will be destroyed.

Parameters

icon	The buddy icon.

Returns: icon, or NULL if the reference count reached 0.

void purple_buddy_icon_update ( PurpleBuddyIcon * icon )

Updates every instance of this icon.

Parameters

Returns: The icon (with a reference for the caller) if found, or NULL if not found.

PurpleStoredImage* purple_buddy_icons_find_account_icon ( PurpleAccount * account )

Returns the buddy icon image for an account.

The caller owns a reference to the image in the store, and must dereference the image with purple_imgstore_unref() for it to be freed.

This function deals with loading the icon from the cache, if needed, so it should be called in any case where you want the appropriate icon.

Parameters

account The account

Returns: The account's buddy icon image.

PurpleStoredImage* purple_buddy_icons_find_custom_icon ( PurpleContact * contact )

PurpleContact version of purple_buddy_icons_node_find_custom_icon.

Returns the custom buddy icon image for a blist node. The caller owns a reference to the image in the store, and must dereference the image with purple_imgstore_unref() for it to be freed.

This function deals with loading the icon from the cache, if needed, so it should be called in any case where you want the appropriate icon.

Parameters

node The node.

Deprecated:: Use purple_buddy_icons_node_find_custom_icon instead.

time_t purple_buddy_icons_get_account_icon_timestamp ( PurpleAccount * account )

Returns the timestamp of when the icon was set.

This is intended for use in protocols that require a timestamp for buddy icon update reasons.

Parameters

account The account

Returns: The time the icon was set, or 0 if an error occurred.

const char* purple_buddy_icons_get_cache_dir ( void )

Returns the directory used to store buddy icon cache files.

The default directory is PURPLEDIR/icons, unless otherwise specified by purple_buddy_icons_set_cache_dir().

Returns: The directory to store buddy icon cache files to.

const char* purple_buddy_icons_get_checksum_for_user ( PurpleBuddy * buddy )

Returns the buddy icon subsystem handle.

Returns: The subsystem handle.
