Features/Changes which will break the API and so must go into v7
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
- Do not pack the od_control structure in memory. This is plain silly.
|
|
- Do not use the BOOL type in od_control or in any of the public functions.
|
|
Using it causes problems with stuff that defines a BOOL as a different
|
|
size. For example, xpdev uses int as a BOOL whereas OpenDoors uses a char.
|
|
- Support telnet IAC escaping, add an item to the od_control struct to
|
|
keep track of the current status of IAC escapes.
|
|
- Fix up the local display for Win32. It's horribly slow currently.
|
|
Possibly just dust of the DOS stuff and use ciolib?
|
|
- Make output functions take an optional position and attribute to cut down
|
|
on small send()s.
|
|
- Audit for small send()s in general.
|
|
- Possibly improve the output thread and make *nix multi-threaded for block
|
|
buffering ala Synchronet.
|
|
- Change to 24-line default. This means fixing the personalities, and the
|
|
screen stuff.
|
|
- Autodetect if passed handle is a socket (Like I did for MyCroft doors)
|
|
- We need some non-socket way of dealing with I/O for Win32. Something that
|
|
operates along the lines of stdio on *nix. When BBSs commonly start doing
|
|
SSH, is the door supposed to do SSH also? A local socket would work, but it
|
|
seems like the Wrong Thing. The main reason stdio is out is that there's no
|
|
standard way of passing hangup info etc.
|
|
- Check the timestamp on the dropfile... do not use an old one! Add and
|
|
od_control variable to prevent this behaviour.
|
|
- Add a bunch of status-line specific functions to allow new personalities:
|
|
od_status_set_cursor()
|
|
od_status_set_attrib()
|
|
od_status_puttext()
|
|
od_status_gettext()
|
|
od_status_printf()
|
|
od_status_disp_str()
|
|
od_status_putch()
|
|
od_status_addkey()
|
|
od_status_delkey()
|
|
- OD_DISP_EMU() has problems with ANSI music (of course)
