SvxLink

File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: 051009

Notes:
Biggest news:

* Fixed a nasty bug in the network communications code which caused the SvxLink Server to hang or crash.

* Voice mail module


Changes:
Async 0.12.1
--------------

* Bugfix in Async::TcpClient: In some situations sockets could be leaked
  and functions could be called twice instead of once. This may have caused
  crashes.


EchoLib 0.10.2
----------------

* Bugfix in EchoLib::Directory: Fixed the "Unexpected reply from directory
  server" bug.


SvxLink Server 0.6.0
-----------------------

* New vox configuration variable VOX_START_DELAY. Specify a time in
  milliseconds after the receiver has been unmuted until the vox starts
  to operate. In a simplex logic configuration the receiver is muted
  (internally in SvxLink) when the transmitter is activated and unmuted
  when the transmitter is turned off. The vox start delay can be used
  if the transceiver makes a noise when the PTT is released. This noise
  would otherwise trigger the vox.

* New module "Tcl" added. This module does not do anything in
  itself. It is just a wrapper that calls TCL functions on different
  events (squelch open/close, DTMF commands received etc). This makes
  it possible to write new modules in TCL which can be a little bit
  more convenient than doing it in C++ directly.

* New module "TclVoiceMail". This module is implemented using the new Tcl
  module. I wrote it to test the Tcl module. It is a quite simplistic
  voice mail system but it demonstrates what you can do with modules
  written in TCL.

* Added a template for writing modules in C++. It can be found in
  svxlink/modules/template in the source code tree.

* Removed configuration variable IDENT_INTERVAL and replaced it with
  two new variables: SHORT_IDENT_INTERVAL and LONG_IDENT_INTERVAL.
  Identification is now entirely handled in TCL.


Qtel 0.9.1
-----------

* Fixed a compilation problem that appeared under Slackware 10.0.
