Changes from 2.6 to 3.0
GMimeMessage API changes:
g_mime_message_get_sender()
no longer returns the value of the From header, it now returns an InternetAddressList* containing the parsed address(es) from the Sender header. For the From addresses, useg_mime_message_get_from()
.g_mime_message_get_reply_to()
no longer returns a const char*, instead it returns an InternetAddressList* for easier use.g_mime_message_set_sender()
andg_mime_message_set_reply_to()
have been removed. You will either need to use the appropriate getter method and theninternet_address_list_add()
to add a new InternetAddressMailbox or, alternatively, you can useg_mime_message_add_mailbox()
.GMimeRecipientType has been replaced by GMimeAddressType because it now contains non-recipient-based enum values (SENDER, FROM, and REPLY_TO).
g_mime_message_get_recipients()
has been replaced byg_mime_message_get_addresses()
which allows you to access the address lists of any address header.g_mime_message_add_recipient()
has been renamed tog_mime_message_add_mailbox()
due to the fact that it can now be used to add mailbox addresses to the Sender, From, and Reply-To headers as well.g_mime_message_set_subject()
now takes a charset argument used when encoding the subject into rfc2047 encoded-word tokens (if needed). Use NULL to get the old behavior of using a best-fit charset.Removed
g_mime_message_get_date_as_string()
andg_mime_message_get_date_as_string()
. This is unnecessary since this can be done usingg_mime_object_get_header()
andg_mime_object_set_header()
Cryptography related API changes:
Renamed GMimeCertificateTrust to GMimeTrust and GMIME_CERTIFICATE_TRUST_NONE to GMIME_TRUST_UNKNOWN.
Removed
g_mime_gpg_context_get_always_trust()
andg_mime_gpg_context_set_always_trust()
. This can now be accomplished by passing GMIME_ENCRYPT_ALWAYS_TRUST tog_mime_crypto_context_encrypt()
.Removed
g_mime_gpg_context_get_use_agent()
andg_mime_gpg_context_set_use_agent()
. This should no longer be needed.Removed
g_mime_gpg_context_get_auto_key_retrieve()
andg_mime_gpg_context_set_auto_key_retrieve()
.Removed
g_mime_crypto_context_get_retrieve_session_key()
andg_mime_crypto_context_set_retrieve_session_key()
. This is now handled by passing GMIME_DECRYPT_EXPORT_SESSION_KEY to theg_mime_crypto_context_decrypt()
method.GMimeCryptoContext's encrypt, decrypt, and verify methods now all take a flags argument that can enable additional features (see above examples).
g_mime_crypto_context_sign()
now takes a boolean 'detach' argument that specifies whether or not to generate a detached signature. To get the old behavior, pass TRUE as the detach argument.g_mime_crypto_context_decrypt_session()
has been merged withg_mime_crypto_context_decrypt()
and so the decryot method now takes a session_key argument that is allowed to be NULL.g_mime_crypto_context_verify()
no longer takes a 'digest' argument as it was unused (it was originally meant to be a hint but wasnever really needed).g_mime_multipart_signed_verify()
andg_mime_multipart_encrypted_decrypt()
no longer take GMimeCryptoContext arguments. Instead, they instantiate their own contexts based on the protocol specified in the Content-Type header. These methods now also take a flags argument and in the case of the decrypt() method, it now also takes a session_key argument.GMimeSignatureStatus and GMimeSignatureErrors have been merged into a single bitfield (GMimeSignatureStatus) which mirrors gpgme_sigsum_t and thus
g_mime_signature_get_errors()
andg_mime_signature_set_errors()
have been removed.g_mime_multipart_encrypted_encrypt()
no longer takes a GMimeMultipartEncrypted argument nor does it return int. Instead, this function now returns a newly allocated GMimeMultipartEncrypted.g_mime_multipart_signed_sign()
no longer takes a GMimeMultipartSigned argument nor does it return int. Instead, this function now returns a newly allocated GMimeMultipartSigned.
Other API changes:
g_mime_set_user_charsets()
andg_mime_user_charsets()
have been removed. All encoding API's now have a way to specify a charset to use and all decoder API's take a GMimeParserOptions argument that allows for specifying fallback charsets.GMimeObject's prepend_header(), append_header(), set_header(), get_header(), and remove_header() virtual methods have all been removed. They have been replaced by the header_added(), header_changed(), header_removed(), and headers_cleared() virtual methods to allow users to set headers on the GMimeHeaderList directly and still get notifications of those changes.
g_mime_object_new()
andg_mime_object_new_with_type()
both now take a GMimeParserOptions argument.g_mime_param_new_from_string()
has been replaced byg_mime_param_list_parse()
and now takes a GMimeParserOptions argument.g_mime_content_type_new_from_string()
has been replaced byg_mime_content_type_parse()
and now takes a GMimeParserOptions argument.g_mime_content_type_to_string()
has been renamed tog_mime_content_type_get_mime_type()
and a new function has been introduced calledg_mime_content_type_encode()
that includes the encoded parameter list.g_mime_content_type_get_params()
has been renamed tog_mime_content_type_get_parameters()
.g_mime_content_disposition_new_from_string()
has been replaced byg_mime_content_disposition_parse()
and now takes a GMimeParserOptions argument.g_mime_content_disposition_to_string()
has been replaced byg_mime_content_disposition_encode()
.g_mime_content_disposition_get_params()
has been renamed tog_mime_content_disposition_get_parameters()
.internet_address_list_parse_string()
has been replaced byinternet_address_list_parse()
and now takes a GMimeParserOptions argument.GMimeHeaderIter has been dropped in favour of a more direct way of iterating over a GMimeHeaderList using int indexes.
g_mime_stream_write_to_stream()
,g_mime_stream_writev()
, andg_mime_stream_printf()
now return a gint64.g_mime_stream_file_new_for_path()
has been renamed tog_mime_stream_file_open()
and now also takes a GError argument.g_mime_stream_fs_new_for_path()
has been renamed tog_mime_stream_fs_open()
and now also takes a GError argument.g_mime_part_new()
now returns a GMimePart with a Content-Type of "application/octet-stream" instead of "text/plain" since there is now a GMimeTextPart who'sg_mime_text_part_new()
returns a GMimeTextPart with a Content-Type of "text/plain".g_mime_part_get_content_object()
has been renamed tog_mime_part_get_content()
.g_mime_part_set_content_object()
has been renamed tog_mime_part_set_content()
.g_mime_parser_get_scan_from()
andg_mime_parser_set_scan_from()
have been replaced byg_mime_parser_get_format()
andg_mime_parser_get_format()
which take a GMimeFormat argument.g_mime_parser_get_from()
has been renamed tog_mime_parser_get_mbox_marker()
.g_mime_parser_get_from_offset()
has been renamed tog_mime_parser_get_mbox_marker_offset()
.g_mime_parser_construct_message()
andg_mime_parser_construct_part()
now take a GMimeParserOptions argument.Renamed GMimeFilterMd5 to GMimeFilterChecksum.
Renamed
g_mime_multipart_get_preface()
tog_mime_multipart_get_prologue()
andg_mime_multipart_set_preface
tog_mime_multipart_set_prologue
.Renamed
g_mime_multipart_get_postface()
tog_mime_multipart_get_epilogue()
andg_mime_multipart_set_postface()
tog_mime_multipart_set_epilogue()
.Updated
g_mime_object_write_to_stream()
to take a GMimeFormatOptions argument.Split GMimeFilterCRLF into GMimeFilterDos2Unix, GMimeFilterUnix2Dos and GMimeFilterSmtpData.
