| Summary | 0000307: EotL additions | ||||
| Description | Date: Tue, 29 Feb 2000 04:25:09 -0600 From: Casey Zacek <cz@800hosting.com> Short: EotL Additions Type: Feature State: New Original changes (pre-177): I think I'll go ahead and include the EotL hacks to the driver here, so that you can ponder them, and possibly even include them so that we don't have to hack them in with each update anymore! (+ means it's a desired feature) (- means I don't want it, but have to deal with it for legacy reasons but don't want it in the driver) + input_to has priority over editor This is a pretty easy hack. I agree with Xurbax that it's nice to be able to more a file while you're in the editor. If you decided to add this one to the stock driver, I don't foresee it causing any major problems for other muds. + took hostname off debug.log I've always thought it should be a compile- or run-time directive as to what you name your debug log, and I think I remember reading comments from you along those lines as well... We basically have all our "system" logs named with capital letters in our / directory so that they're easily seen at the beginning of a directory listing, and we don't really want the hostname on there. +? added remote_command() I think Xurbax added this one because he didn't like leaving add_action()'ed functions non-static and not being able to force people to do stuff. I haven't hacked it into 3.2.7 because I don't think it's really that necessary, but it can be a nice thing from a coding standpoint. What it did was return 1 anywhere in the stack from the time command() with two arguments was invoked until that command execution finished. I'd rather have it return an object (the one that issued the command() call, probably) than just 1, but as it is, we don't have it at all. What'd *really* be cool, now that I'm discussing it with the EotL Arches, is if command_stack() had an extra element in the list that said whether there was a command() call to invoke the command or not. +? one second call_out granularity I haven't really had a chance to look at this. I haven't patched it into 3.2.7, and it's not yet a priority. It's nice to have. Heartbeats still have 2-second-ish intervals. What we'd *really* like is a way to do a call_out(func, 0, args...) so that func(args) would be called immediately after the current execution stack was finished. - added privilege_violation check for shutdown() efun This is like a 2-line hack, but I really don't see much point in adding it. We can use nomask simul_efuns instead. What we really want is a way to define what functions cause privilege violations through a driver hook or something. +? added __BFILE__ preprocessor define Base file... The .c file being compiled, even if you're within a .h file, basically. Kinda handy, but not necessary... I didn't hack it into 3.2.7. | ||||
