TADAAAA...

After over 2 weeks of frustration with Make/AutoMake we finally got our plugin compiled with more than one .c file. It was several small problems that all together made this huge problems. No help was found in the Gaim forum in which we are currently loosing faith. The object order when linking our files seemed to be the biggest problem.
We now use a normal Makefile which we wrote ourselves instead of using Gaims black-box-magic makefiles. Still no automake, but it we our going to need that someday, we will look into that again.
Bottom line we can now compile a plugin for Gaim with more than one .c file !!!

We still cant access the jabber protocol plugin functions, which would sometimes be convienient. But as they say in the Gaim forum: "you should not do that .... why would you possible want that!"

Today we have synchronized our files in CVS - yeahhh! - after only a few fixes with CVS and a few conflicts it works like a charm.

We are now trying to get some more understandable/organized code, instead of our first muckup code in one looong file (Gaim style!).

We are working on a log file and today we got a JID helper object ready. Besides this some heavy work with implementing protocol will soon arrive...
