1) All IRC clients support prefixes nowadays
2) People generally misunderstand the question and think this
disabled +q (channel owner) and +a (channel admin), when
in fact it does not. It only enables/disables the showing
of prefixes, and it changes some of the rules eg requiring
+qo / +ao for actions that normally only require +q / +a.
3) We now have the modularized +q and +a, so you can actually
disable channel owner and channel admin, which is what most
users want(ed) that previously disabled PREFIX_AQ.
For all users (95%+) that enable PREFIX_AQ there is no effective
change. For the other 5% it is likely only for the better.
I don't think there were more than a handful of people who disabled
this, and it clutters the source badly (not to mention that this
should not be a compile time option at all).
trying to disable warnings in pragma's that are unknown to the
compiler.
We prefer -Wno-unknown-warning-option, which does exactly what
we want. If not available then fallback to -Wno-unknown-pragmas.
That way on recent clang/gcc's we keep the useful pragma warnings,
while still being able to compile on older compiler versions.
the existence of -Wno-unknown-warning-option so we can add these since
we use pragma's occasionally to suppress compiler warnings and some
of these may exist in gcc but not in clang or vice versions (and..
versions of course), which would otherwise yield an error.
argument which specifies how many characters to copy max.
strlncpy(dest, src, sizeof(dest), maxcopybytes);
vs
strlcpy(dest, src, MIN(sizeof(dest),maxcopybytes+1));
We already had a strlncat() vs strlcat()
(the new fallback https-only implementation).
./configure will set URL= to either url_curl.o or url_unreal.o
depending on whether curl is enabled or not.
The 3 functions that both implementations had in common are now in
src/misc.c: url_is_valid(), displayurl() and url_getfilename().
always compiled in, both regardless of cURL support or not.
Obviously the cURL functions are not available without cURL and there
are now some #ifdef USE_LIBCURL in url.c
This also fixes the current build to work without cURL
This adds __attribute__((format(printf,X,Y))) to several functions.
It also adds checking only for the non-literal case to some functions
such as unreal_log/unreal_do_log.
This so we can more easily detect format string issues. Especially now with
the recoding of the logger and with possible future mistakes in this area
in UnrealIRCd 6 itself or in third party modules.
The check is currently disabled in these files, which are TODO items:
* src/send.c: still much work to do
* src/socket.c: due to report_error and report_baderror().
I want to get rid of these functions and integrate them
in the new logger anyway.
* src/serv.c: only disable for hunt_server()
on what hardware people end up running UnrealIRCd.
Also (unrelated) add a check for >64kb strings in unrealdb_write_str()
and return an API error. That too is unlikely to ever happen, but..
better be correct.
This library provides easy to use functions for encryption/decryption
among other things. There is some overlap with things that
OpenSSL also provides but not all.
Note: the only change between 5.0.9 and 5.0.9.1 is:
* Build improvements on *NIX (faster compiling and lower memory requirements)
* Windows version is unchanged and still 5.0.9
Type: Parallel build: Non-parallel build:
Before change 92 seconds 304 seconds
After change 7 seconds 21 seconds
All this thanks to a simple --disable-tests being passed to c-ares' configure.
