- Must start up contact chat session on incoming chat message received; this is to update or cache the message, and to translate if enabled.
- When joining a chatRoom, includes element in sent stanza to stop server from sending history messages;
chatRoom history messages are retrieved via mam query instead. - Implement background runnable thread to handle history messages translation; eliminate ~1s/message delay in translation and hang chat session UI.
- aTalk default Translator server has rate limiting. Too many history messages translation will give raise to error code 429.
If required, user may use 'Translate message receive' option, to translate messages that have failed. - Support Translator API key entry for user if available.
- Add 'before' option for the latest mam messages; fix incorrect setting in field 'with' of mamQuery stanza sent to chatRoom history retrieval.
- Need to take care for retract and correction messages handling if remote messages have been deleted, and when history logging is disabled.
- Perform stricter checks on mam retrieved forwarded message for retract and correction message.
Skip if the affected message previously has been deleted; use the correct timestamp when caching/saving the message. - Upgrade libvpx to 1.16.0. libvpx v1.16.0 removed support for 32-bit targets (armv7, armv7s, and i386).
- aTalk jni library will support only arm64-v8a and x86_64 ABIS; drops armeabi-v7a and x86 ABI ABIS.
- Upgrade aTalk to support Android-17.0 CinnamonBun (API-37).
*** Observation ***
- All offline messages sent to contact are streamed upon user registered with the server. Hance not all messages are translated due to Translator server overloaded.
Normally this will not happen, as aTalk should be active and registered with the server to receive incoming messages with translation. - All chatRoom history messages are streamed immediatly upon user joining the chatRoom, if history option is not disabled.
- Update build environment to Android Studio Quail 1 | 2026.1.1 Patch 2.
Must keep 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:8.11.2' and not to use AGP 9.x.x.
Otherwise, this causes "constant expression required" errors for the generated R.id.xxx;
and gradle.properties#android.nonFinalResIds=false is ignored in AGP 9.x.x;
