Description Guillaume Desmottes 2012-03-07 02:07:29 UTC

I'm a huge fan of GLib/Gtk's new macros warning you when using API which is older than a specific version or newer than another version. See for example:
AC_DEFINE(GDK_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED, GDK_VERSION_3_0, [Ignore post 3.0 deprecations])
AC_DEFINE(GDK_VERSION_MAX_REQUIRED, GDK_VERSION_3_0, [Prevent post 3.0 APIs])

Would be ace to have the same magic in tp-glib!

(That's actually GDK_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED)

We should probably introduce those macros in 'next' directly as we are about to break the API.
