This file prvides some macros for common tasks required by functions
implementing handlers for IRC commands:
* _IRC_ARGC_LE_OR_RETURN_
* _IRC_ARGC_GE_OR_RETURN_
* _IRC_GET_SENDER_OR_RETURN_
* _IRC_GET_TARGET_SERVER_OR_RETURN_
The METADATA command can be used by other servers to update "metadata"
of registered clients, like the client info text ("real name"), user
name, and hostname:
:<prefix> METADATA <target> <key> :<value>
It is distributed in the network, unknown <key> names are silently ignored
and passed on, too. This allows for further extensions.
* capabilities:
"multi-prefix" capability 2/2: adjust NAME and WHO handlers
"multi-prefix" capability 1/2: implement complete CAP infrastructure
IRC_Send_NAMES(): Code cleanup
New function Client_CapSet() in addition to Client_Cap{Add|Del}
"CAP REQ" starts capability negotiation and delays user registration
Correctly handle "CAP END", new client type CLIENT_WAITCAPEND
Implement core IRC capability handling and "CAP" command
New "login" source file
Introduce_Client() => Client_Introduce(), and move it to client.c
This patch implements the core functions to support "IRC Capabilities"
and the IRC "CAP" command as used by other servers and specified here:
<http://www.leeh.co.uk/draft-mitchell-irc-capabilities-02.html>.
It enables ngIRCd to support the defined handshake, but it doesn't
implement any capabilities, so "CAP LS" and "CAP LIST" always return
the empty set and "CAP REQ ..." always fails with "CAP NAK".
Rename Hello_User[_PostAuth] to Login_User[_PostAuth] and move it to the
new login.c; and move cb_Read_Auth_Result(), too. This will enable further
code to easily call Login_User() when required.
Xcode requires Mac OS X 10.6 or newer; Xcode 4 supports this project
format as well, so effectively you can use Mac OS X 10.6.x or 10.7.x
for building ngIRCd with the Apple Xcode IDE.
The new "module" proc.c is used for functions dealing with child
processes. At the moment, it is only used by the asynchronous resolver.
All the functions already implemented habe been migrated from the
resolver code base, and the rest of the ngIRCd source code has been
adepted to the new namespace and calling conventions.
The goal is to develop "generic" process handling functions that can
be used for other purposes as well, e.g. running processes on client
connects etc.
Fix Apple Xcode warning "cc1: warning: -Wuninitialized is not supported
without -O" when using the "Debug" build target:
Detection of uninitialized automatic variable requires data flow analsys
that is only enabled during optimized compilation.
- New configuration option "MaxNickLength" to specify the allowed maximum
length of user nick names. Note: must be unique in an IRC network!
- Enhanced the IRC+ protocol to support an enhanced "server handshake" and
enable server to recognice numeric 005 (ISUPPORT) and 376 (ENDOFMOTD).
See doc/Protocol.txt for details.
