* #90: Fixed a problem with inheriting multiple objects that
each define classes and have functions with arguments using
those classes. Properly adjust the types for validating
arguments [reported by Randor@Aurora]
* #81: Filled in missing definitions for reference support for
LPC_TO_C [reported by Uranus]
Thu Sep 21 14:16:49 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))
* raised patchlevel to v22.2b7
* #75: Fixed a typo in C_TRANSFER_LOCAL macro added in v22.2b6
[reported by Uranus]
* #63: Fixed heart_beat errors for optimized builds.
[reported by scatter@thevortex.com]
* #71: For MySQL support, all string/char/text/blob field types
will now be returned as strings by default unless the field
has the BINARY modifier applied to it, in which case a buffer
will be returned.
* #76: Filenames containing '//' are now allowed -- multiple
slashes are stripped down to a single slash [patch from
Skullslayer@RoD]
* Loading a binary now checks the simul_efun date to see if it
has been modified (in addition to driver, includes, config,
etc.) [from Bugs]
Mon Sep 18 20:19:20 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))
* raised patchlevel to v22.2b6
* #57: Fixed a problem with single quotes inside of a macro
expansion [reported by Mystic]
* #64: Fixed unresolved symbol c_transfer_local for LPC_TO_C.
Only used when LPC optimization is on [reported by Uranus]
* #63: Fixed an error in heart_beat causing heart_beat() to
get called repeatedly [reported by scatter@thevortex.com]
* #65: Added some intelligence to build.MudOS on FreeBSD to
try and determine if -export-dynamic or -rdynamic will work
for compiling. Old versions of FreeBSD do not support
them [reported by darren@nighttide.net]
* Enabled #pragma optimize
* #73: Fixed memory_summary() efun to handle recursive data
structures [reported by Avenger@AtP]
* If NO_BUFFER_TYPE is defined, MySQL BLOB fields will be
treated as TEXT fields.

maximum call depth [reported by Beyond]
Sat Sep 9 16:16:54 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))
* raised patchlevel to v22.2b5
* #16: 'ref' works in foreach again [originally reported by
Uranus]
* #54: Added a new search location for mysql.h to satisfy RPM
installs on Linux from MySQL.com. Also fixed edit_source to
search for libmysqlclient.so properly [reported by jytong]
* #49: Fixed oldcrypt() to actually be oldcrypt() when
CUSTOM_CRYPT is defined [reported by Beyond]
* Fixed a crasher when heart beats and the command_giver is
shadowed [reported by Andrew@Nanvaent]
* Removed Beek's expand_all_defines hack introduced in v22.2a3.
This caused an undesirable compat buster from older versions
of MudOS. Instead, fixed macro expansion to work according
to the ANSI C standard -- almost. The only major difference
now is that comments are not considered whitespace everywhere
that they should be.
Sat Sep 2 09:40:38 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))
* raised patchlevel to v22.2b4
* updated with respect to v22.1pre4
* #40: Fixed compilation error in add_action.c [reported by
Loriel@LimaBean]
* Don't call the first heart_beat until after saving the
initial error context, otherwise an error in heart_beats
or call_outs (set by preloads) will cause a crash.
* #47: When using OLD_ED with a broken client that does not
send CRLF for end of line, don't inadvertantly strip off the
first character of the next command if there are multiple
commands in the input buffer [reportd by fchen@uno.edu]
* #45: Added 'an' as a special word equivilent to 'a' and 'any'
Also, change ordinal for 'a', 'an' and 'any' to 1 from -1.
I'm not sure of the original intent in supporting -1, but the
end result is the same -- at least it's supposed to be. 1
works, -1 doesn't. [reported by Zifnab@Red Dragon]
Mon Aug 28 08:16:50 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))
* raised patchlevel to v22.2b3
* updated with respect to v22.1pre3
* #15: Picked up the fix from v22.1pre2 that was missed in the
last revision for some reason
* #17, #26: Removed a chunk of old dead code for binaries
support that has been obsoleted since function tables are
always sorted and compressed now. Other new code had since
been written assuming this and not handling the (unnecessary)
binaries cases, causing the driver to crash in certain
instances [reported by ackers@coolnet.net, Beyond@Lima]
* #30: If an object has had its program replace, mark the
string that holds its name. Also make sure that it gets
freed properly when the object is deallocated [reported by
Uranus]
Wed Aug 23 05:08:05 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))
* raised patchlevel to v22.2b2

object as an argument to a function getting treated
incorrectly as void [reported by Loriel@LimaBean]
* #8: Fix compile problem when both DEBUGMALLOC_EXTENSIONS and
PACKAGE_UIDS are defined [reported by Skullslayer@RoD]

everywhere that is appropriate [reported by Uranus]
* #19: Made fixes so that RUNTIME_LOADING will work on FreeBSD
[problem reported by Uranus]
* #23: Corrected arguments passed to compile_object() master
apply when cloning a virtual object [reported by Uranus]
Sun Aug 13 22:25:28 CDT 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))
* raised patchlevel to v22.2b1
* updated with respect to v22.1pre1
* fixed a memory leak with MUD port external ports leaking
ref counted objects received (arrays, mappings, etc.)
* fixed up check_memory() code to do proper checks:
. mark_apply_low_cache now bumps extra_ref for each
cache entry's oprogp and progp as appropriate
. dangling object list is checked for missing objects,
and if found, a more appropriate error is reported.
. TAG_SIMULS is used for master applies, so changed the
test in md.c to 3 rather than 2 uses for this tag.
. added marks to objects on the command_giver stack
* PACKAGE_DB compiles again
* properly free an added reference when establishing a new
user connection after APPLY_CONNECT is called.
* fixed a memory leak when updating the master object. The
master apply table reallocated memory without freeing the
previous table.
* 'void' is now acceptable as an argument list for a function
that takes no arguments. If used, it must be the first and
only argument, and it must not be named. Also updated the
testsuite to handle this.
* COMPAT BUSTER: SERVER_IP is no longer supported. Use the
runtime config option 'mud ip' to bind to a specific address.
addr_server and portbind have both been updated to accept a
parameter to specify a dotted decimal ip address to bind to.
Examples:
. portbind -i 192.168.1.1 -p 4000
. addr_server 7334 192.168.1.1
* COMPAT BUSTER: FD6_KIND and FD6_PORT are no longer supported
as compile time options. Set 'fd6 kind' and 'fd6 port' in
your config file to use them. You may use 'telnet', 'mud',
'binary' or 'ascii' as the kind. Additionally, you must now
always specify -p to portbind to specify the port to bind to.
* fixed various crashers in handling eof conditions while
compiling, particularly in unexpected locations (comment,
array block, text block, etc.)
* when DEBUGMALLOC_EXTENSIONS is enabled, free up some compiler
scribble space that is normally reused (cleans up errors that
check_memory() reports)
* fixed a crasher involving BINARIES being defined, functions
being inherited and prototypes, and all sorts of other weird
assorted nonsense [reported by Mystic]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Aug 30 18:58:56 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))
* raised patchlevel to v22.1pre4

leaking using OLD_ED and an exit function passed to ed()
[reported by Skullslayer@RoD]
* #30: Fixed a problem with marking references for objects in
sentences with get_char() and input_to() [reported by Uranus]
Mon Aug 28 08:11:42 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))

* Check for INADDR_NONE is now done in edit_source rather than
on os specific check in portability.h. [suggested by Beek]
* #27: Fixed socket_write() to return EESUCCESS if no data is
passed to be sent (i.e., socket_write(fd, "")) [reported by
Uranus]
* #33: Fixed a crasher when destructing command_giver from a fp
set to notify_fail was executed for command failure.
* #28: Do not call LPC code when a too deep recursion or eval
cost exceeded error is raised. Especially in the former
case, there is no stack space to run the code and it results
in an unstable environment after the error is supposedly
recovered from. LPC code means the mudlib error handler or
the object_name() apply from (s)printf().
[reported by Pinkfish@Discworld]
* #35: Do not allow lfun or functional binding after to an
object after replace_program() has been called on it, but
before the current thread of execution has completed.
Prevents bad code from creating dangling references to
programs [reported by Skullslayer@RoD]
* Backport from v22.2a27 fixes to contrib efun replaceable() so
that it works properly.
* #34: sscanf() efun was leaking memory in some cases if using
regular expressions [reported by Skullslayer@RoD]
* #32, #38: Fixed a crasher problem with add_action weirdness.
Involves using disable_commands() or destructing an object
in the sentence chain for command_giver and returning 1 from
the function. [reported by Loriel@NS and Uranus]
Wed Aug 23 04:59:44 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))

* #1: fixed compilation error on Solaris where INADDR_NONE is
not defined in system headers [reported by Dvarsk@Nightmare]
* Fix a braindead check in socket_write_select_handler() for
S_LINKDEAD. Also properly close and flag the socket as
linkdead in socket_write() when an error occurs in sending.
[reported by Eddy@MidnightSun]
* #7: Fix a crasher on some platforms in debug_message() where
variable arguments are reset between calls to vfprintf()
[fix from reetnem@bigfoot.com]
* #10: Remove completely (brain)dead code in the socket_accept
efun that called gethostbyaddr on the accepted socket, which
would cause the driver to possibly block unacceptably. This
information was then never used anywhere at all again.
[reported by Eddy@MidnightSun]
* #11: Make sure the accepted socket is set to be nonblocking
in the address server [reported by Eddy@MidnightSun]
* #5: Fixed a memory leak when LPC optimization was turned on
using either #pragma optimize or by setting PRAGMA_OPTIMIZE
in DEFAULT_PRAGMAS in local_options/options.h [reported by
Skullslayer@RoD]
* #15: Fixed a crasher in implode() efun with some older
versions of gcc (reported specifically against 2.7.2.3).
Compiler optimization error [reported by Mystic]
* #2: children(), livings(), and objects() have been rewritten
to better handle destructed objects and things of that
nature. Particularly objects().
* #22: Backport a fix from v22.2a27 to make the (s)printf efun
re-entrant. Allows the no-(s)printf in object_name() master
apply restriction to be lifted. Fixes error handler crashes
[reported by Zifnab@Red Dragon]
Wed Aug 13 22:03:44 CDT 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))
* raised patchlevel to v22.1pre1
* patched a memory leak with MUD type LPC sockets
leaking arrays/strings/mappings/classes received.
* fix a bad stack crasher when 0x2 passed in the mask
to check_memory() PACKAGE_DEVELOP efun
* fixed the testsuite to work when:
. NO_ENVIRONMENT is defined
. NO_ADD_ACTION is defined
. SENSIBLE_MODIFIERS is defined
. OLD_ED is not defined
. any form of explode() is configured for use.
. any default max eval limit is set (for automated tests)
* fix up rename and cp efuns so that strings tucked away are
not reported as leaking with check_memory efun [backported
from v22.2a37]
* if OLD_ED is not defined, cleanup ed buffer when interactive
object goes netdead (from remove_interactive()).
* more fixes to socket efuns to help prevent hangs on FreeBSD
when a socket closes unexpectedly.
Sat Jul 29 21:30:19 CDT 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))
* raised patchlevel to v22.1b32
* fixed a crasher with reclaim_objects() and function
pointers introduced in b31 [reported by Skullslayer@RoD]
* rewrote hname_handler to properly handle fragmented response
packets from addr_esrver.
* When read fails in get_user_data(), flag the user as net_dead
before calling remove_interactive(). Don't flush messages in
flush_message() if NET_DEAD is set. Eliminates hangs on BSD
when a user connection is lost [fix from Eddy@LimaBean]
* If an LPC socket is blocked and the connection is unexpectedly
lost, clear the blocked state so that it doesn't hang in limbo
indefinitely. Similar problem to above.
* display a more appropriate error message when the global include
file cannot be included for some reason [reported by Mystic]
Fri Jul 7 20:43:00 CDT 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))

* fixed ordinal handling in parser package added in b29
[reported by Dvarsk@Nightmare]
* added checks to prevent string concatenation from
exceeding the maximum string length [patch by Meph@LimaBean]
* process_efun_callback: save st_num_arg because it can get
blown away by the call to object_visible() [fixes crashers
reported by Ehan@MedievalTimes]
* FP_LOCAL function pointers now hold a reference to the
program of the object that they're bound to. this results
in replace_program() and swapping being prevented on the
object [fixes crashers reported by Avenger@AtP]
* backed out earlier changes to dont telopt_linemode. much
more support in the driver is necessary to properly support
this. it's too late to put it in now. it's in v22.2a36.
* fixed crasher when MAX_NUM_OBJECTS objects are found by the
parser using plural modifier [reported by Dvarsk@Nightmare]

const0u (undefined) rather than just const0. done to
be consistent and also to match the documentation
* added stack overflow checks throughout the driver
* fixed a potential crasher in allocate_mapping() if
a function is specified as the filler and an error
occurs evaluating it.
* fixed several locations where the stack pointer was
incremented but unset before an error check. if the
error occured, a garbage svalue would be popped in the
handler
* made sure all swapped object checks are done by checking
O_SWAPPED rather than prog==0
* fixed a crasher that reared its ugly head in various forms
caused by a bad call to free_object() when dereferencing
a class member that held a destructed object
Sat Jul 1 13:14:32 CDT 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))
* raised patchlevel to v22.1b29
* various fixes from Alaron@RetroMud:
. make db.c compile
. fix an infinite loop problem in db code
. add support for more mSQL datatypes
. miscellaneous typos (error messages and the like)
. correct ambigious if/else in md.c
. move #include of dlfcn.h to std_incl.h
. cleanup some compiler warnings
. check return from fork() in external.c
* the 'say' command in the testsuite will now compile
with #pragma strict_types
* Cloning a virtual object now ensures that O_CLONE is set
on the new object.
* Loading a virtual object that would result in a duplicate
object name now fails with a runtime error rather than
silently allowing the operation and corrupting the object
name hash table (or crashing in a debug build)
* Parser fixes:
. object count passed with ERR_ORDINAL was one too high
[reported by Zifnab@Red Dragon]
. can now access any number of objects in an inventory,
not just the first nine. above 9 requires 10th, 11th,
etc. and will not accept tenth, eleventh, etc.
[reported by Reflection]
* fixed up error messages for defining variables with an
undefined class name and attempting to create an instance
of an undefined class with new()

* correct potentially fatal references to freed arrays and mappings in
F_MEMBER, F_INDEX and F_INDEXR cases by doing destructed object checks
before pushing onto the stack.
* fix crasher when socket_error(-33) is done [reported by Megaboz@Lima]
* added locale support [based on patches from Naebator@Remedy]
* reset command_giver when current_interactive is reset in the backend
to fix random crashes/fatals caused by use of set_this_player() and
command_giver not holding a reference to the object
* raise class redefinition error only if member names and/or types differ
[reported by Pinkfish@Discworld]
Thu Jun 15 17:07:32 CDT 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))
* raised patchlevel to v22.1b27
* if ARGUMENTS_IN_TRACEBACK or LOCALS_IN_TRACEBACK is defined, save
error context in dump_trace() so as to maintain a consistent state if
svalue_to_string() errors (due to object_name in master_ob generating
an error)
* if LOG_CATCHES is defined, bump num_error before dumping trace on a
catch so that we don't loop indefinitely in the event of an error in
dump_trace().
* fix a crasher when write permission is denied for the file specified
for dumpstat() [reported by Mystic]
* removed redundant code in smart_log() in file.c [reported by Mystic]
* if multiple address server replies are received in a single socket
read, handle all of them, not just the first and throw the rest away

call_out() or input_to()
. remove an inappropriate warning when negative indices are used on a
mapping
* fix a crasher when a class is defined in the simul_efun object and
another object generates a compiler error referencing that class type.
[reported by Pinkfish@Discworld]

* raised patchlevel to v22.1b26
* don't shut down the driver if a new connection fails to set
non-blocking on linux, just dump the connection and move on
* PACKAGE_EXTERNAL will compile without PACKAGE_SOCKETS now.
* if EWOULDBLOCK is not defined by the OS but EAGAIN is, make
EWOULDBLOCK equivilent to EAGAIN.
* in shutdownMudOS, use OS_socket_close instead of close
* set non-blocking on newly accepted sockets in the socket_accept
efun.
* in socket flushing code, ignore EWOULDBLOCK as well as EINTR.
* error when number of global variables reaches 256 to prevent
overflow in various opcodes [reported by Zifnab@Red Dragon]
* all conversions from lpc float to string now use %f as the
format specifier passed [eventually] to (v)(s)printf.
* restoring a numeric value from a string (restore_variable or
restore_object) will count the last character being a decimal
as a 0 rather than erroring. this is for backwards compatibility
in loading existing .o files that have data saved this way.
[reported by Zifnab@Red Dragon]
* correct index to local variable for warning about unused local
variables [reported by Andrew@Nanvaent]
Mon Jun 5 13:05:02 CDT 2000 (marius@mudos.org (Marius))

instead of when NSTRSEGS)
. properly support tabs in wrapping [reported by Tigran]
. fix crasher in wrapping caused by uninitialized variable
[reported by Zifnab@Red Dragon]
. allocate the proper amount of space for the temporary wrapping
buffer when constructing the final string.
* fixed crasher in (mapping) x *= x [reported by brett@stummies.org]
* several parser fixes for problems reported by brett@stummies.org
. bitvec_count() only counts the bottom half of each bitvec_t element
. local_error is unused in we_are_finished()
. DEBUG_DEC missing before return in parse_rule() and we_are_finished()
. miscellaneous cleanups in debugging code
. don't reset debug_parse_depth in free_parse_globals() (causes DEBUG_P
to break if used in do_the_call() if it is and is set in
f_parse_sentence() anyway)
. ERR_ORDINAL shouldn't be negative
* fix crasher when input to parse_sentence() exceeds MAX_WORD_LENGTH.
[reported by Zifnab@Red Dragon]

time_expression { ... } block
* corrected the filename and added the line numbers for overlapping
range cases in switch blocks
* moved sentence cleanup from dealloc_object() in object.c to
destruct2() in simulate.c because a sentence with a function
pointer callback could (and likely does) hold a reference to the
object being destructed [reported by Belgarat@Realms of Sorcery]
* add slashes to program and file name in error traces and also for
mudlib error handler
* corrected OS_socket_read and OS_socket_write on Unix to use recv
and send respectively. All socket io is now done with send/recv
instead of mixing with read/write

* in read_bytes() make sure the file gets closed when errors occur
[reported by Hamlet]
* fixed remove_shadow to remove all shadows on an object, like
the documentation says [reported by Skullslayer@Realms of the Dragon]

* fixed crasher when terminal_colour() string contains only %^
[fix from Skullslayer@ROD]
* Fixes from Belgarat:
. fixed crasher in explode() when result array was too large
. __cdecl funkiness in backend.c, comm.h, etc; why can't MS
support standard C? No other compiler needs anything this gross.
. remove WIN32 specific code in time() efun ... it is wrong, and
will cause call_outs to misbehave
. fixed off-by-one error in WIN32 code for file_size()
. push_ and push_refed should use STACK_INC not sp++
. fixed crasher in terminal_colour
. added UINT32 define to WIN32 configure.h
