Sending a message without service #3

Open dataBaseError opened 12 years ago

dataBaseError commented 12 years ago

When a message is sent to a contact without service the message does not get sent once service is found.

Update: steps have been taken to support this but currently it is unsupported.

Though this is still not completely supported, support has been added for a messaging queue that takes in messages and waits till service is found before sending messages. The queue also allows for the encryption to be handled on a different thread. The user is able to send messages and continue interacting with Tinfoil-sms and the messages will send once they are ready (encrypted if needed). The problem still facing Tinfoil-sms and why this is not completely support is that a signal listener is used to check for changes in the signal strength. This does cover most cases of lost signal when sending messages and so on but, there is no support to catch messages sent with no signal. Since it is not possible to stop every message from sending with no service this should be added at some point.
