util.xml: Break reference to help the GC (fix #1711) LuaExpat uses a registry reference to track handlers, which makes it so that an upvalue like this creates a reference loop that keeps the parser and its handlers from being garbage collected. The same issue has affected util.xmppstream in the past. Code for checking: local xml_parse = require"util.xml".parse; for i = 1, 10000 do xml_parse("<root/>") end collectgarbage(); collectgarbage(); print(collectgarbage("count"), "KiB"); A future release of LuaExpat may fix the underlying issue there.

This file documents the structure of the roster object.

table roster {
  [string bare_jid] = roster_item
}

table roster_item {
  string subscription = "none" | "to" | "from" | "both"
  string name = Opaque string set by client. (optional)
  set groups = a set of opaque strings set by the client
  boolean ask = nil | "subscribe" - a value of true indicates subscription is pending
}

The roster is available as
 hosts[host].sessions[username].roster
and a copy is made to session.roster for all sessions.

All modifications to a roster should be done through the rostermanager.
