Changes
Patch v0.9.2
============
- Use a hash table for console modes. This should make
things a bit quicker when changing console modes.
- More cosmetic repairs to user-visible output.
- Updated the hashing code to allow lookups to be made
on non-zero terminated strings by providing a string
length. This means we don't have to take a copy of
various strings so we could hack them up.
- Added a utility function - load_text_flags - which
takes a string, and using the specified hash table
sets or clears flags in a flag word.
- Changed the object, ship and console flag structure
to contain a length parameter. This is used by the
new hash search-with-length routine.
- Renamed the console type spacecalls to be more inline
with the object and ship flag calls. I also added a
function to directly check a console flag.
set_consoleflags(console, flags)
get_consoleflags(console)
has_console_flag(console, flag)
- Greater use of 'const' and 'static' where possible.
This should provide more opportunities for compiler
optimizations, and reduce namespace pollution.
- Corrected the declaration of cmdShdAllocate
(was cmdShieldAllocate).
- Fixed funListContainers, funContactListNumbers,
funContactListDbrefs, funTransListBeamable,
funTransListDests to use the platform indepentant
buffer return macro. This may very well have caused
tinymush to crash every now and again.
- Rework of platform specific code to remove the MU*
headers from inclusion in any PSE code except platform.c
This should give us a very compact mapping layer between
the server and the PSE code.
+-----+ +-----+
| MU* +---- platform.c ----+ PSE +
+-----+ +-----+
- New additional patches to MUX, and MUSH are in the
patches directory. This will cure the errors regarding
discarding const when compiling platform.c
patch-tinymux-1.5p3-const
patch-tinymush-2.2.3-const
These patches do not alter the operation of the MUX
or MUSH server in any way. They just add some 'const'
declarations where appropriate.
Installation
Standard installation instructions apply.
