Unreal3.2-beta5 out

[Carsten V. M. <sts...@un...>]

Okay.. we've released Unreal3.2-beta5 today, as a little xmas present..
This version contains numerous bug fixes and many new features. It is
strongly recommended that you upgrade to beta5 if you are using a
previous beta. Some noteworthy changes include better IPv6 support, a
new method to encrypt passwords, improvments to the Windows GUI, and
much more.

Changes since Unreal3.2-beta4:
- Fixed a typo in makenet found by 'Eternal Bliss'
- Updated module dependancies to allow a module to load the module
containing
 the symbol
- Fixed a win32 bug where the editor would cut off text, reported by
Inter
- Added make install to copy files for you when you install unreal
- Replaced killircd, ircd, and rehash with ./unreal start|stop|rehash
- Fixed a bug where the win32 help dialog links were plain text
- IPv6 fixes to Inet_si2p & Inet_si2pB
- IPv6 fixes to make dual ipv4/ipv6 work
- IPv6 fixes for IP_OPTIONS (disables under IPv6, i mean .. IRC
multicast.
  WTF?)
- Made ./unreal generated by configure to make sure it has the correct
path o
f the exe
- Added autoconf check for setproctitle
- Added some setproctitle(.., me.name) for extra l33tness :P~
- Changed the setproctitle check to also check in -lutil (some OSes have
it t
here)
- Added aliases/auspice.conf, and added a /register command to
aliases/aliase
s.conf
- Fixed a win32 typo in the .rc
- VERSION M_SERVER fix by skold
- Fixed connecting with IPv6
- Ident requests now orgin with the listener that the user connected on
- More IPv6 fixes, DNS resolving actually works now too.. (crackhead
IRCnet
  coding)
- Webserver caching fix
- A little bug fix that prevented the G:line hostmask checker from
checking ?
- Made the /kline hostmask checker work like the G:line checker, (it was
too
easy to K:line *@*)
- Fixed a bug where ./unreal rehash would kill the IRCd instead of
rehashing
:P
- Made ./unreal restart (to restart Unreal) and made the pid file
location mo
re accurate
- Added support for PS_STRINGS and pstat to change the progrma name
(couldn't
 test since I don't have an OS
  that uses them)
- Fixed a win32 bug where pasting text into the editor would not
  show up in the correct font
- Added hscroll bars to the win32 editor (if needed)
- The win32 editor now allows you to edit files included via tld {}
(probably
 needs testing)
- Made the win32 editor allow you to edit include "" files
- Recoded the win32 rehash button to be much better
- Recoded the way the editor menu works (hopefully this is much
  better?)
- Added the ability to create new files via the win32 editor
- Fixed a win32 editor bug caused by me being drunk or something :P
- Fixed the last of the font and editor-cutting-text bugs (hopefully)
- Commented out three lines of code that were causing SSL to freeze on
  /connect, TODO: code in new SSL error handling (Griever)
- Fixed password crash bug, found by \dev\NULL-Z-[Zap]
- Added new auth.c API and a lot of different crap .. will document
later
- Made make install copy modules (oops)
- Added configure code to get the Auth crypt working
- Made Events do thread locking (so we can do funny things and kill
small
  furry animals in the attempt for the perfect scanning module) .. yes,
this
  is drunken coding
- Made delayed module unloading possible, make a int mod_delay() adding
  an event, for e_unload_module_delayed
- Updated makefile.win32 for the Auth system
- Redid the event system somewhat
- Fixed a little event issue involving data types.
- Changed the name of the hook functions from add_Hook, del_Hook,
  add_HookX, del_HookX to HookAdd, HookDel, HookAddEx, HookDelEx
  so the names are more standard.

- Fixed a FSU Pthreads bug that caused it not to work on Slackware (help
from Frank Mueller)
- Started some work on CIDR support (added some functions from hybrid7)
- Added some functions for generic linked list modifications
- Slightly improved +x v2 algo, win32 releases should be compiled with
  this improvement OFF, at least until 3.2 final. COMPAT_BETA4_KEYS
makes
  it compat w/ beta4 and pre.
- Made checking for redundant bans both ways an ifdef, off by default.
  Note that undefing this might SLIGHTLY break compat w/ beta4 and pre
- Added "griever would like to thank" section to /credits
- Auth/SSL fixes, list.c fix, code: could you add auth.c and ssl.c to
  makefile.win32?. If SSL is enabled, we can use MD5, SHA1, and crypt()
  even on win32
- Added ssl.c and cidr.c to the win32 makefile

- Converted tkl, events, commands, hooks, and all config structs to
ListStruct

people wanted it...

oper

from
 a user due to
  a Q:line.

servers con
nect and
  disconnect respectively
- Added module v3 code. Needs testing, and NO MODULES DOES NOT COMPILE
- Fixed a win32 movude v3 bug
- Small v3 fix with no dependency problem
- Fixed some more module v3 problems and upgrade all modules
- Fixed a ton of module v3 problems (cause: Stskeeps is an idiot)
- Yes, even more module v3 bugfixes
- Module v3 bugfixes. cause: codemastr lack find n replace skill
- Moved the mkpasswd program into ./unreal mkpasswd <method> <password>
- Recoded m_oper almost completely, note that the fceT flags are ignored
  now (you still get them, they just dont do shit). Remove them for me
  please, as well as the +T usermode. I haven't tested this completely
but
  I see nowhere a bug could happen.
- Removed umode +T (useless) and the fue oflags since
  oper::snomask supercedes them.

actually works yet)

- Made "Module already loaded" a non fatal error (funny msg on rehash)

  added it to yet *giggles and twirls around*" bug, do to with
config_set_unknown

/helpop i
tems

- A and a give you O, set::modes-on-oper
- Made link::hubmask and link::leafmask actually work properly
- Big mods to TKL, oper commands split into module, testing
- TKL mods compile and run fine, set{} stuff to decide what funcs are
  avail forthcoming
- SMO recoded but wierd because sendto_umode and sendto_snomask are
wierd
- chatops actually checks if sender is an oper, why did no one notice
this?
- bugs in SMO ironed out, now sends to someone with ANY of the
umodes/snomask
s

+z
