created new ones unless there has been backwards incompatible change in
parameters or performance penalty.
Actually there were quite big implications in
other modules (like in
dialog done initially and then in tm module done recently to get it all
work like a replacement for fix_natted_contact()) -- so it was not just
about a new (or replacement) function in nathelper module.
if there has not been either in case of set_contact_alias, it should not
have not created in the first place and therefore i'm against
deprecating add_contact_alias.
It's fine to keep add_contact_alias() from my
point of view, if you feel
it performs better for your needs (I didn't start this discussion after
all), but docs have to list the limitations.
Or, even
better in my opinion at this time, just point both to same C
function. Overall, as this is discussion about deprecating something, it
will happen more recently with the future next major release, 4.3.
i didn't
get answer to performance issue. is there penalty when changes
are applied to the message by set_contact_alias function? if yes, then
add_contact_alias code should not be changed.
I did say something about
performances from my point of view in the
previous email.
Cheers,
Daniel
