Use IM_MESSAGEs, IM_REGISTER_COMMAND and IM_REGISTER_USER_ITEM, for
registering commands and user-list pop-up items.
The former replaces CayaProtocol::Commands(), which was a real bad idea
in the first place. Just awful. No idea why I did that instead of this,
which is nicer and significantly easier anyway.
When no accounts are active, all items in the Menubar->Chat menu are
disabled, and some other menu items related to starting/managing chats
are disabled in other views.
One new message was added to the API― IM_PROTOCOL_READY, which tells
Caya that a given protocol has logged in and is ready to receive
messages (rather than just sending).
This is currently done in XMPP after the roster is loaded, which be a
process that stalls the protocol for a few seconds. IM_PROTOCOL_READY
should only be sent after those initial, potentially time-heavy
operations.
Accounts can now be temporarily disabled (in a Pidgin-like style)
through Preferences->Accounts. Work is still required to allow
enabling/re-enabling of accounts on-the-fly, and for keeping an
account's disabled state persistent.
The ConversationListView is now an BOutlineListView, and rooms are
added as subitems to the item of their associated account. Right now,
account items aren't selectable or useful.
Previously, all Conversations/Contacts/Users were stored in the Server,
each in their respective KeyMaps, identified solely by their
identifiers. This leads to the glaring problem of overlap― if the user
has multiple accounts, some users/rooms might be used or present in multiple
accounts at the same time.
Now, each accounts' Contacts, Conversations, and Users are stored in
its ProtocolLooper, making this overlap impossible. An oversight of only
allowing one user identifier to be stored (fMySelf) in Server was also fixed
this way.
This is the bulk of the work required for multi-account support― now,
the user can join the same XMPP room on two seperate accounts, and it
works perfectly.
