Interesting BNet API Change on Build 15912

[suicidalkatt]

Just a change to the function BNGetFriendInfoByID(toastData)

Old:

elseif ( toastType == BN_TOAST_TYPE_BROADCAST ) then
        local presenceID, givenName, surname, toonName, toonID, client, isOnline, lastOnline, isAFK, isDND, messageText = BNGetFriendInfoByID(toastData);

New:

elseif ( toastType == BN_TOAST_TYPE_BROADCAST ) then
        local presenceID, presenceName, battleTag, isBattleTagPresence, toonName, toonID, client, isOnline, lastOnline, isAFK, isDND, messageText = BNGetFriendInfoByID(toastData);

This also was changed for any other BNGet functions to provide a 'presenceName' instead of 'givenName' and 'surname'. This is all to start using the new BattleTag id system.

Also some new BATTLENET_FONT_COLOR_CODE and BATTLENET_FONT_COLOR globals in the Contants.lua.

BATTLENET_FONT_COLOR_CODE = "|cff82c5ff";
BATTLENET_FONT_COLOR = {r=0.510, g=0.773, b=1.0};

I noticed that too, maybe we can finally create that alt-tracker addon/unique colored names for realid friends? :P

I would love that.

I'm getting 16 return values from BNGetFriendInfo/BNGetFriendInfoByID:

 1: PresenceID
 2: PresenceName
 3: BattleTag
 4: IsBattleTagPresence
 5: ToonName
 6: ToonID
 7: Client
 8: IsOnline
 9: LastOnline
10: IsAFK
11: IsDND
12: BroadcastText
13: NoteText
14: IsFriend (Unknown purpose according to wowpedia/wowprogramming)
15: BroadcastTime
16: Unknown [boolean]

Some of the higher number return values (13+?) might not have appropriate names here, if they have also changed from live.

IsFriend may mean that they are also listed on your friends list as a regular friend ( toon wise ).

That's what I think too. I'll test it ^^

EDIT: No, I just tested on a RealID friend that I do not have on normal friend list. IsFriend was true.

Could it be something related to if the toon is friendly to you? (Same faction/realm et.c)

EDIT2: This testing is on live.
EDIT3: Could it be that the labeling on wowpedia is incorrect? I'm not sure where they got the "isFriend" from.
