file_id is a 32byte identifier that can be used by users to identify
file tranfers across core/client restarts in order to resume broken
file tranfers.
In avatar tranfers it corresponds to the hash of the avatar.
Added tox_file_get_file_id() function to api to obtain the file_id
of an ongoing file transfer.
If not set, core will generate a random one.
Commit b8d530c9e0bbce331f22cbff7f818e49673d5bd7 and some of its
parents changed the public name of "client id" to "public key".
Update the avatar documentation to follow the idea.
Change location of the user avatar from "<data dir>/avatar.png" to
"<data dir>/avatars/<user id>.png", as proposed by commit
6f4ab49f5c2a33aab00bdb9e80dfe51624089899
Support for other formats was deemed unnecessary in the code review
and therefore removed. The value for the constant TOX_AVATARFORMAT_PNG
is now set in stone; if the other formats become needed again in the
future, this commit shall be reverted and the enum values reordered to
keep compatibility.
Add a protocol and the APIs to straightforwardly support user avatars
in client applications. The protocol is designed to transfer avatars
in background, between friends only, and minimize network load by
providing a lightweight avatar notification for local cache validation.
Strict safeguards are imposed to avoid damage from non-cooperative or
malicious users and to limit network usage.
The complete documentation is available in docs/Avatars.md and sample
code is available in testing/test_avatars.c.
Code and documentation are released under the GNU GPLv3 or later, as
described in the file COPYING.
tox_shell is a basic secure shell that can be used to control a
computer from any Tox client.
Just run tox_shell and make it add your Tox id.
It's very basic but it works.
#if 0 the content of toxav/msi.c : int stringify_message(MSIMessage
*msg, char *dest)
This function has no effect and does not seem to be used for actively
waiting.
Fix various other style errors, reduce scope when possible, avoid
redundant writes, clarify operator priorities, etc.
Added request_id.
request_id must be obtained with tox_generate_dns3_string, stored,
then passed to tox_decrypt_dns3_TXT when we want to decrypt the
received response.
