libgdata 0.9.0



About libgdata
==============

libgdata is a GLib-based library for accessing online service APIs
using the GData protocol — most notably, Google's services. It
provides APIs to access the common Google services, and has full
asynchronous support.

News
====

Major changes:
* Switched to even–odd/stable–unstable versioning (so 0.9.0 is an *unstable* release)
* Use HTTPS for all requests
* Some minor parsing fixes
* Fixed some nasty threading/cancellation problems
* Removed the old authentication API in favour of a more extensible, flexible one based on a GDataAuthorizer interface:
  - ClientLogin is now handled by GDataClientLoginAuthorizer
  - OAuth 1.0 support has been added with GDataOAuth1Authorizer
* Added a dependency on liboauth ≥ 0.9.4
* Introspection annotation improvements by Philip Chimento <philip chimento gmail com>
* Removed some outdated contact photo API

API changes:
* Added GDATA_AUTHENTICATION_ERROR_INVALID_SECOND_FACTOR (later renamed to GDATA_CLIENT_LOGIN_AUTHORIZER_ERROR_INVALID_SECOND_FACTOR as below).
* Rename GDataAuthenticationError to GDataClientLoginAuthorizerError
* Rename GDATA_AUTHENTICATION_ERROR and gdata_authentication_error_quark() similarly.
* Remove gdata_service_authenticate() in favour of using GDataClientLoginAuthorizer with GDataService::authorizer:
  - Remove gdata_service_authenticate(), gdata_service_authenticate_async() and gdata_service_authenticate_finish().
  - Replace gdata_service_is_authenticated() by gdata_service_is_authorized() with much the same functionality.
  - Add GDataService::authorizer, gdata_service_get_authorizer(), gdata_service_set_authorizer() and gdata_service_get_authorization_domains().
  - Remove gdata_service_get_client_id() in favour of GDataClientLoginAuthorizer::client-id.
  - Remove gdata_service_get_username() in favour of GDataClientLoginAuthorizer::username.
  - Remove gdata_service_get_password() in favour of GDataClientLoginAuthorizer::password.
  - Remove GDataServiceClass->service_name in favour of GDataAuthorizationDomain::service-name.
  - Remove GDataServiceClass->authentication_uri and GDataServiceClass->parse_authentication_response in favour of different GDataAuthorizer
    implementations.
  - Add GDataAuthorizer parameters to and remove client_id parameters from: gdata_calendar_service_new(), gdata_contacts_service_new(),
    gdata_documents_service_new(), gdata_picasaweb_service_new() and gdata_youtube_service_new().
* Add GDataAuthorizationDomain.
  - Add GDataServiceClass->get_authorization_domains and gdata_service_get_authorization_domains().
  - Add auth. domain getters to various GDataService subclasses: gdata_youtube_service_get_primary_authorization_domain(),
    gdata_contacts_service_get_primary_authorization_domain(), gdata_calendar_service_get_primary_authorization_domain(),
    gdata_picasaweb_service_get_primary_authorization_domain(), gdata_documents_service_get_primary_authorization_domain() and
    gdata_documents_service_get_spreadsheet_authorization_domain().
  - Add auth. domain properties to various standalone request objects: GDataDownloadStream::authorization-domain with
    gdata_download_stream_get_authorization_domain(), GDataUploadStream::authorization-domain with gdata_upload_stream_get_authorization_domain() and
    GDataBatchOperation::authorization-domain with gdata_batch_operation_get_authorization_domain().
  - Add GDataAccessHandlerIface->get_authorization_domain. This doesn't have to be implemented by existing GDataAccessHandlers, but it's
    highly recommended.
  - Add a GDataAuthorizationDomain parameter to GDataServiceClass->append_query_headers, gdata_service_query(), gdata_service_query_async(),
    gdata_service_query_single_entry(), gdata_service_query_single_entry_async(), gdata_service_insert_entry(), gdata_service_insert_entry_async(),
    gdata_service_update_entry(), gdata_service_update_entry_async(), gdata_service_delete_entry(), gdata_service_delete_entry_async(),
    gdata_batchable_create_operation(), gdata_download_stream_new() and gdata_upload_stream_new().
* Add GDataAuthorizer as described above, implemented by GDataClientLoginAuthorizer.
* Add GDataOAuth1Authorizer and all its properties and methods.
* Remove gdata_contacts_contact_has_photo() and GDataContactsContact:has-photo (use gdata_contacts_contact_get_photo_etag() instead).
