Release of libmygpo-qt v1.0.7

After exactly half a year, a new version of libmygpo-qt is ready.
Changes in v1.0.7:

• New Config Class. This class allows to programmatically to retrieve the libmygpo-qt version and retrieve and set the gpodder.net API endpoint (e.g. if you test your software against a private instance of gpodder.net)
• Config Class also allows to set a prefix to the user-agent. Please never completely overwrite the user-agent set in libmygpo-qt (instead pre/append your own, e.g. via mygpo::Config::setUserAgentPrefix( ... ) )
• fixed a bug that created incomplete Episode Actions if an Episode Action couldn't be parsed completely by libmygpo-qt
• fixed a small bug with the pkgconfig file (thx to davidsansome)
• added support for uploading & retrieving flattr Episode Actions to gpodder.net (this allows you to automatically flattr Podcast Episodes from any podcatcher that uses libmygpo-qt)

General Infos about libmygpo-qt

What is libmygpo-qt?

libmygpo-qt is a Qt/C++ Library wrapping the gPodder.net Webservice. It was created as part of a University Course & it is used in Amarok (since 2.4.1) with the new gpodder.net
Service, that makes the gpodder.net Podcast Directory available from within Amarok.

The next Version of Amarok (2.5) requires libmygpo-qt 1.0.5 for the gPodder PodcastProvider, with which you can synchronize your local Podcasts between Amarok and gpodder.net (and other podcatchers with gpodder.net integration).

GSoC update: Subscription sync with Amarok

Another update from Lucas Lira Gomes about his Google Summer of Code project that aims to integrate gpodder.net with Amarok: He has now managed to get synchronization working, with some pretty neat UI integration:

Check out more screenshots and a description of them on Lucas' blog.

GSoC update: Podcast synchronization in Amarok

Lucas Lira Gomes has once again updated his blog with some information about the progress on getting gpodder.net integration working with Amarok:

[GSoC] Podcast Subscription Synchronisation

Expect some more updates regarding the normal version of gPodder, including support for recently announced MeeGo devices soon. In July, we will be working hard on getting the new release in shape, and we'll also have some updates for the current 2.x branch of releases. Until then, enjoy the weather.

libmygpo-qt 1.0.3 released, new Git repository location

Our resident gpodder.net C++ client master Stefan returns with another release announcement: The Amarok team has released Amarok 2.4.1, it's the first widespread application to use libmygpo-qt. Thanks for all the feedback since libmygpo-qt 1.0.2 - it's time again for a new bugfix release, so here it is: libmygpo-qt 1.0.3 :)

If you are using the Git repository, please be aware that since this release, the Git repository URL for libmygpo-qt has changed - the library now lives inside the "gpodder" project on Github (other parts of the gPodder ecosystem will move to this location shortly when new versions are released): https://github.com/gpodder/libmygpo-qt

Changes in libmygpo-qt 1.0.3:

• All private classes used in libmygpo-qt were moved into their own header files (name_p.h) instead of having them in the .cpp files
• UrlBuilder now uses the fast string concatenation of Qt
• Some unneeded files were removed (RequestHandlerTest & tests/Makefile.man)
• Fixed a bug in the build system
• General cleanup of unnecessary #include statements

libmygpo-qt 1.0.2 released

Stefan from the libmygpo-qt project has just released version 1.0.2 of the Qt/C++ gpodder.net client library. Since the inclusion into Amarok 2.4.1 beta, interest in the library has grown, and packages have been created for different distributions. This release incorporates the feedback that the libmygpo-qt team has received based on these packaging efforts.

The licensing was a bit unclear, and has been clarified with this release: libmygpo-qt is licensed under the terms of the GNU LGPL v2.1 or later. Here is a short ChangeLog from the announcement:

• Changed .so version scheme (again - but now it's final; thanks to "eean" for input)
• Eliminated some compiler warnings in the code
• Cleaned up the build system to only install public/required headers
• Avoid or remove warnings from the build system
• Updated README file

Thanks to Stefan and the libmygpo-qt team for keeping this nice and useful Qt library up-to-date. We're happy to see the gpodder.net support in Amarok being well received by the community :)

Amarok 2.4.1 beta 1 ships with gpodder.net support

The Amarok team has announced version 2.4.1 beta 1 of the cross-platform music player. This is the first version to ship with gpodder.net integration out of the box (thanks to the libmygpo-qt library and the integration efforts by Stefan, Christian and Felix). Try it out and tell us how you like it! The release announcement can be found on the Amarok homepage.

libmygpo-qt 1.0.1 released, call for packagers

Stefan from the libmygpo-qt project announced a bugfix release for the gpodder.net Qt client library:

Dear gPodder Community,

after finishing the v1.0 Version of libmygpo-qt, the first Bugfix Release is here, v1.0.1

This is a bugfix Release, especially targeting a Bug in the Build System (library couldn't be built on Maemo 5/ARM)

I am looking for interested people that help us with the packaging of the Library. Please contact me via the gpodder Mailinglist.

The team is now looking for people interested in helping to package the library for different distributions. If you want to help, please get in touch. You can find more details about the release and links to resources in the official announcement.

As part of their project, Stefan, Christian & Felix have also worked on integrating gpodder.net into Amarok, the KDE media player. You can find a link to their experimental Amarok version in the official announcement (see above) and hopefully their patches will get merged into mainline Amarok in the upcoming months.

We've been celebrating the release of libmygpo-qt 1.0 last week in Vienna together with the team; great to see the gpodder.net web service getting some attention from other developers and being integrated into other applications. If you want to integrate gpodder.net support into your own application, get in touch :)
