Hi, me again.

The current version of the go-tox wrapper doesn't seem to ever connect to the Tox network as it will never receive any friend requests since about early last week. My Tox version is current at this time. I tried replacing the bootstrap node but that doesn't seem to make a difference. Neither the examples nor my own code seems to connect successfully although no errors ever happen.

Tox has been updated on my system since the last update of go-tox. I tried to get the older package version again to check if the fault is in Tox but failed to do so (I'll never remove old package tars ever again 😞 ).

If you could either confirm the problem or otherwise point me in the right direction I'd be very thankful.

Greetings!

Hi @codedust ,
I have problems compiling the library. It's a commented-out line. Why Go trying to implement it? Perhaps I what the not understand, but tell me that me to do in this case. Thanks

Erorr Log:

# github.com/codedust/go-tox
../../../GOPATH/src/github.com/codedust/go-tox/bindings.go:3:10: fatal error: tox/tox.h: No such file or directory

Hello!

I have run into the problem that when sending small files (more specifically I believe files that fit within a single chunk) the detection of when a file has been completely sent as implemented here https://github.com/codedust/go-tox/blob/master/examples/example.go#L202 doesn't trigger. In my case this results in a number of transfers remaining open as they are never closed (and a bunch of clean up work going undone 😛 ).

So my question is how I can detect the successful sending of any sized file? I could check the file length against a chunk size limit to see if I'll only be sending the one chunk, but this limit is not exposed by gotox that I can see. Alternatively am I supposed to send a FileControl CANCEL on completing a transfer? That would mean cancel isn't named quite correctly (which would be a problem with ToxCore itself I think since they named it thus).

I'd appreciate a pointer towards a "reliable" solution. Thanks!

Hi!

I tried to build the wrapper for my own tests and ran into the following error with the current version:

> go install github.com/codedust/go-tox/examples
# github.com/codedust/go-tox
could not determine kind of name for C.TOX_SAVEDATA_TYPE
could not determine kind of name for C.TOX_SAVEDATA_TYPE_NONE
could not determine kind of name for C.TOX_SAVEDATA_TYPE_SECRET_KEY
could not determine kind of name for C.TOX_SAVEDATA_TYPE_TOX_SAVE

It also happens for my own code, not only for the provided examples. By checking out the recent version 7b51493 it works again. If you need any further info just ask, happy to help. Thanks for your work!

Is this a feature of the test or the underlining Tox functionality?

hi...
when I try to run examples in ubuntu, these errors occur repeatedly for each rows of hook.c (rows 27-41):

github.com/codedust/go-tox
In file included from /usr/lib/go-1.8/src/github.com/codedust/go-tox/callbacks.go:5:0:

I think there is something wrong with this part of code(hook.c: line 5-7):

I'm trying to use Tox client through proxy (Tor), but client can not establish a connection.
Example of options:

savedata, err := loadData(profileFileName)
if err == nil {
    options = &gotox.Options{
        IPv6Enabled:  false,
        UDPEnabled:   false,
        ProxyType:    gotox.TOX_PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS5,
        ProxyHost:    "127.0.0.1",
        ProxyPort:    9050,
        StartPort:    0,
        EndPort:      0,
        TcpPort:      0,
        SaveDataType: gotox.TOX_SAVEDATA_TYPE_TOX_SAVE,
        SaveData:     savedata}

Does it work on windows ?

In https://github.com/TokTok/c-toxcore we have made old group chats a first class supported API and rebranded it as conference. The new group chats will be called "group". We have also removed user data from callback registration functions. This now needs to be passed to tox_iterate.

Hello, planned update to c-toxcore?

Hi, me again.

I've now reached the point where I've implemented file receiving but now require the capability of file sending too. Based on PROGRESS.md and the available code this is not yet implemented.

You've stated that you were open for feature requests via issues, so here it is. I'll see if I can implement it myself if you do not have the time to yourself. However I am still new to Golang and this would be my first stint into C bindings via cgo, so if possible I'd like to avoid that. 😅

Thanks either way!
