added error response when not logged in

When you call opensocial.requestPermission and the Hyver isn't logged in, there will be no (popup) feedback from Hyves any more, you will get a response opensocial.ResponseItem?.Error.FORBIDDEN.

If the user does not have permission you will get a response opensocial.ResponseItem?.Error.UNAUTHORIZED.

You can see an example here.

  • Making it possible to pass app_params/variables when adding a gadget, see the following item-page as an example:

http://www.hyves.nl/gadgetgallery/389/Passing_params_to_another_view/?appParams={%22data1%22:%22data%20on%20install%22,%22data2%22:%22This%20is%20paramdata%20to%22}

  • The callback function of requestShareApp now takes a responseItem argument. The data property (accessed by responseItem.getData()) contains a list of members who received the invitation.

Addition on media, two square sizes

Added two new square media sizes "square_large" and "square_extralarge" in all versions:

This early morning we deployed new code that affects our OpenSocial platform in the following areas:

  • Implemented OpenSocial requestSendMessage (some restrictions apply, see OpenSocialRequestsendmessage)
  • Removed smiley codes from OpenSocial nickname
  • Added hyves namespace to all hyves specific OpenSocial Javascript functions so code won't conflict with app javascript code.
  • Added more thumbnail sizes (large, medium, small). Access like this: owner.getField(Hyves.Person.Field.THUMBNAIL_URL_MEDIUM);
  • Added option to skip the confirmation message ("do you want to navigate to the canvas page?") when doing a requestNavigateTo call. Can be switched on/off by us. Message showing by default.
  • Fixed wrong sender being shown for app invites (showed person with the app, not the person initiating the invite)

* New gadget gallery category Charity

  • New Gadgets top level menu item
  • Changed business rules of gadgets.skin feature for background color and image (background color of box overrules color of page background, support for transparent iframe using CSS)
  • Fixed Request share app link not working in <profile>.hyves.nl/gadgets/ overview
  • Person gender defaults to null instead of FEMALE
  • Multiple speed optimizations on the API side
  • Changed way of calculating subdomain of gadget (http://xxxxxxx.hyves-modules.nl/gadgets/ifr?url=yyyyy). Now being calculated on gadget URL http://www.example.com/app.xml instead of http://www.example.com/app.xml__hyversion=xxxx], so it won't change when the hyversion hash changes (changes when client and server side cache is invalidated).
  • Possible to force an OpenSocial gadget to be only placed on homepage or profile (on request).

Note: It's possible that this update caused a short disruption in displaying the gadgets around 11.30.
