Probably something like: void tp_channel_invite_contact_async (TpChannel *self, TpContact *contact, const gchar *message, GAsyncReadyCallback callback, gpointer user_data);
Would be good to have an equivalent for RemoveMembers() as well.
We could have _join_async() well adding ourself (to accept an invitation for example).
Note that my contact-list branch adds _async() wrappers for Group iface methods: http://cgit.collabora.com/git/user/xclaesse/telepathy-glib.git/log/?h=contact-list Invite a contact just just a AddMembers, right? tp_channel(_group?)_invite_contact_async() would just be a 1 contact helper around tp_channel_group_add_members_async(), which could indeed be nice. tp_channel(_group?)_join_async() would be an even nicer helper around tp_channel_group_add_members_async() that adds the channel's self handle.
(In reply to comment #2) > We could have _join_async() well adding ourself (to accept an invitation for > example). That part is already fixed with tp_channel_join_async()
EmpathyTpChat has an interesting API to call AddMembers in the case the channel has GROUP iface, and fallback to request a new channel with conference interface to upgrade the channel. I'm suggesting this API: void tp_channel_invite_contacts_async (TpChannel *self, guint n_contacts, TpContact * const *contacts, const gchar *message, gboolean handle_channel, GAsyncReadyCallback callback, gpointer user_data); gboolean tp_channel_invite_contacts_finish (TpChannel *self, GAsyncResult *result, TpChannel **new_channel, GError **error); In the case self has GROUP iface, it will just do a AddMembers. handle_channel boolean is ignored and new_channel out arg is set to NULL (or set to self?) In the case self does not have GROUP iface, it will do tp_account_channel_request_create_and_observe/handle_channel_async (depending on the handle_channel flag) and the new_channel out arg will be set to the new TpChannel that has conference with contacts invited. I think this API would be convenient, but does not look so nice because we have 2 asymetric cases. Also TpChannel does not know its TpAccount to create its TpAccountChannelRequest... Opinions, ideas?
For the record, here is a branch with _invite_contacts and _remove_contacts to wrap AddMembers and RemoveMembers.
The patch appears to have vanished from cgit. Is this still wanted?
