Description Jonny Lamb 2010-03-08 07:58:50 UTC

I was looking at a butterfly connection today in d-feet and I was overwhelmed by all the /o/fd/Tp/Connection/butterfly/msn/foo_40foo_2ecom/channel1, channel2, channel3, ..., all the way up to infinite! I had to use InspectHandles and guesswork to find the channel I was actually looking for.

Gabble is much better at this, with object paths such as /ImChannel1, /MucChannel3, /RosterChannel/List/publish, etc.

So, I made a patch for tp-python and butterfly to do this.

bug #26959 is the butterfly patch to use this. I'm open to suggestions of alternative solutions though?

Olivier, get reviewing!
