Bug Fixes

  • Immobile an issue where the getPublicChannels() caused a crash

Programmable Talk Android 0.11.0 (November 21, 2016)

Violating

  • Rename IP Messaging to Programmable Talk
  • IPMessagingClient is renamed to ChatClient
  • com.twilio.ipmessaging is renamed to com.twilio.talk
  • AccessManager is liquidated from SDK

ADDED

  • Channel.removeAllListeners() liquidates all added listeners.
  • Channel.getMessagesCount()
  • Channel.getUnconsumedMessagesCount()
  • Channel.getMembersCount()
  • Channels.getPublicChannels() comebacks ChannelDescriptor s, and this list is not updated in realtime.
  • onUserInfoUpdated added UpdateReason.

Switched

Violating Do not come back IPMessagingClient before it was fully initialised. IPMessagingClient.create() no longer comes back a value, you can obtain reference to created IPMessagingClient only in listener’s onSuccess() callback.

Cracking Channel.setListener() substituted with addListener() to support assigning numerous listeners

  • Violating Channel.removeListener() now accepts listener ptr to liquidate only that one

  • Violating Substitute custom-built CreateChannelListener in Channels.createChannel() with generic CallbackListener<Channel> . Listener’s onCreated(Channel) is therefore renamed onSuccess(Channel) .

    Violating IPMessagingClient.handleNotification() now accepts NotificationPayload instead of Map<String,String>

    Violating Messages.getMessageByIndex() has been switched to asynchronous interface.

    Cracking Members.getMembers() has been switched to asynchronous interface.

    Violating Channel invite logic switches.

    Cracking Constants interface is eliminated, StatusListener and CallbackListener<T> are standalone classes now.

    DELETED

    • Cracking Liquidated built-in AccessManager, IPMessagingClient.create() now accepts only String token. IPMessagingClient.updateToken() is provided to update it.
    • Use com.twilio:accessmanager-android:0.1.0 from jcenter

    Liquidated twilio-common from dependencies.

    Violating Liquidate previously obsoleted ChannelListener.onAttributesChange()

    Violating Liquidate previously deprecated Channels.createChannel() with attributes map.

    Violating Liquidate previously deprecated TwilioIPMessagingSDK

    Cracking Eliminate previously deprecated InitListener

    Cracking Eliminate previously deprecated Messages.getMessages()
