A second background_fetch() while one is already running returned
without emitting the event, and the FFI returned 1 for it,
so a UI waiting for an event hangs dc_get_next_event().
Emit the event in any case, so waiting for it is safe.
Event string getters returned Rust-allocated pointers that dc_str_unref()
frees with libc. This breaks with custom Rust allocators, so allocate the
strings with strdup() instead.
"ex" means "used to be, but no longer is".
"ext" means "extended", which is the intended meaning.
"Ext" is more common not only in the Rust ecosystem but in general.
We already had several people (myself included) asking
what "ex" is supposed to mean.
To reproduce this commit, search and replace `_ex(?!\w)` -> `_ext`.
But don't change `list_transports_ex` because it's public API.
Largest change is in the FFI crate.
With 2024 (but not 2021) edition unsafe code
inside unsafe functions should be marked separately
so we can mark exactly the code that is unsafe.
Some CFFI functions even have no unsafe code inside.
Most interesting change is that .strdup()
functions are not marked as unsafe anymore.
They are allocating memory and return raw pointers,
but there is nothing unsafe about it.
Only using the returned raw pointers is unsafe.
This way calls to .strdup() don't have to be marked
with unsafe{} blocks.
BREAKING CHANGE: provider lookup APIs were removed from CFFI and JSON-RPC.
also removes offline provider database code and generated provider data,
provider-specific fields in configure/transport paths, and REPL providerinfo.
Heartbeat notifications are only used on iOS for classic mail servers
but both code and privacy wise (notification server sees IP addresses from those users)
not something we want to support any longer (was discussed with bjoern).
BREAKING CHANGE: removed oauth2 module, dc_get_oauth2_url FFI function, DC_LP_AUTH flags and configured/serverflags, and the oauth2 parameter/field from SMTP/IMAP clients, JSON-RPC interfaces, and CLI tools.
also contains regenerated provider data after dropping oauth in the update script.
E.g. rename location::is_sending_locations_to_chat to location::is_sending_to_chat.
Then import only the location module and use it with location:: prefix,
similarly to how e.g. std::fs or std::tokio::fs avoids using "fs" or "file"
in function names.
Remove unused info_only option from `get_chat_msgs_ex()`.
This option was meant to show an "audit log" of a group, i.e. only the
info messages. This feature was removed again from Desktop, but the
option still lingered around in Core.
This also adds a doc comment to the JsonRPC functions, because I
wanted to note somewhere that the parameter is deprecated, and I needed
some place to put this note.
this adds an api to make the newest incoming message of a chat as "fresh",
so that UI can offer a "mark chat unread" option as usual for messengers
(eg. swipe right on iOS toggels between "read" and "unread").
"mark unread" is one of the most requested missing features,
used by many ppl to organize their every day messenger usage -
tho "pinning" and "saved messages" are similar,
it seems to be missed often.
we follow a very simple approach here
and just reset the state to `MessageState::InFresh`.
this does not introduce new states or flows.
therefore, chats without any incoming message cannot be marked as fresh.
in practise, this is probably not really an issue,
as the "mark fresh" is usually used to undo a "mark noticed" operation -
and then you have incoming message.
also, most status messages as "all messages are e2ee" count as incoming.
to avoid double sending of MDN,
we remove `Param::WantsMdn` once the MDN is scheduled.
in case MDN are used for syncing, MDN is still sent as before.
many other messenger show a "badge without number",
if we want that as well,
we can always track the "manually set as fresh" state in a parameter.
but for now, it is fine without and showing a "1", which alsso makes sense as badges may be summed up.
there is an iOS pr that uses this new feature,
jsonrpc is left out until api is settled.
also out of scope is synchronisation -
main reason is that "mark noticed" is not synced as well, so we avoid an imbalance here.
both, "mark noticed" as well as "mark fresh" should be synced however,
as soon as this feature is merged.
dc_jsonrpc_init called Arc::from_raw on the account_manager pointer, which took ownership of the caller's refcount. When the local Arc dropped at the end of the function, the refcount was decremented, leaving the C side's pointer with a stolen refcount. This caused a use-after-free race between dc_accounts_unref and dc_jsonrpc_unref at shutdown.
Wrap in ManuallyDrop to prevent the implicit drop, keeping the caller's refcount intact.
Regression introduced in #7662.
this PR cleans up with some easy, deprecated stuff.
i roughly checked that they are no longer in use - by these checks,
other deprecated function were kept, eg.
dc_provider_new_from_email_with_dns() and dc_chat_is_protected() is
still used by deltatouch - to not add noise there, we remove them here
on the next cleanup ...
for DC_STR_*, however, if they are in used, the corresponding lines
should just be removed
this will cleanup https://c.delta.chat/deprecated.html as well
New APIs are JSON-RPC method stop_background_fetch(),
Rust method Accounts.stop_background_fetch()
and C method dc_accounts_stop_background_fetch().
These APIs allow to cancel background fetch early
even before the initially set timeout,
for example on Android when the system calls
`Service.onTimeout()` for a `dataSync` foreground service.
`Contact::get_color()` returns gray if own keypair doesn't exist yet and we don't want any UIs
displaying it. Keypair generation can't be done in `get_color()` or `get_by_id_optional()` to avoid
breaking Core tests on key import. Also this makes the API clearer, pure getters shouldn't modify
any visible state.
We already have both rand 0.8 and rand 0.9
in our dependency tree.
We still need rand 0.8 because
public APIs of rPGP 0.17.0 and Iroh 0.35.0
use rand 0.8 types in public APIs,
so it is imported as rand_old.
If we use modules (which are actually namespaces), we can use shorter names. Another approach is to
only use modules for internal code incapsulation and use full names like deltachat-ffi does.
Create unprotected group in test_create_protected_grp_multidev
The test is renamed accordingly.
SystemMessage::ChatE2ee is added in encrypted groups
regardless of whether they are protected or not.
Previously new encrypted unprotected groups
had no message saying that messages are end-to-end encrypted
at all.
MX record lookup was only used to detect Google Workspace domains.
They can still be configured manually.
We anyway do not want to encourage creating new profiles
with Google Workspace as we don't have Gmail OAUTH2 token anymore
and new users can more easily onboard with a chatmail relay.
- sync declined calls from callee to caller, as usual in all larger
messengers
- introduce the call states "Missed call", "Declined call" and
"Cancelled all" ("Ended call" is gone)
- allow calling end_call()/accept_call() for already ended/accepted
calls, in practise, handling all cornercases is tricky in UI - and the
state needs anyways to be tracked.
- track and show the call duration
the duration calculation depends on local time, but it is displayed only
coarse and is not needed for any state. this can be improved as needed,
timestamps of the corresponding messages are probably better at some
point. or ending device sends its view of the time around. but for the
first throw, it seems good enough
if we finally want that set of states, it can be exposed to a json-info
in a subsequent call, so that the UI can render it more nicely. fallback
strings as follows will stay for now to make adaption in other UI easy,
and for debugging:
