Buddy Status

[Giuseppe Santoro]

Hi,

I tried with the example "nullclient".
I created the function:

static void
show_buddy_list_from_active_accounts()
{
    GList *accounts = purple_accounts_get_all_active();
    for (; accounts; accounts = g_list_delete_link(accounts, accounts)) {
        GSList *buddies = purple_find_buddies(accounts->data, NULL);
        for (; buddies; buddies = g_slist_delete_link(buddies,buddies)) {
            PurpleBuddy *b = buddies->data;
            PurplePresence *p = purple_buddy_get_presence(b);
            PurpleStatus *s = purple_presence_get_active_status(p);
            printf("status = %s  buddy = %s\n",
                    purple_status_get_name(s),
                    purple_buddy_get_name(b));
        }
    }
}

and I modified the function "signed_on":

static void
signed_on(PurpleConnection *gc, gpointer null)
{
    PurpleAccount *account = purple_connection_get_account(gc);
    printf("Account connected: %s %s\n", account->username,
account->protocol_id);
    purple_accounts_add(account);
    show_buddy_list_from_active_accounts();
}

Output is:
status = Offline  buddy = xxxxxxxxxx at hotmail.xxx
......
status = Offline  buddy = xxxxxxxxxx at hotmail.xxx

for all buddies.
I do not understand where is the problem.

Thanks,
Santoro Giuseppe
