Revision history for Perl extension POE::Component::IRC.
1.0 Wed Feb 21 15:09:56 PST 2001
- Split 'irc_ctcp' messages into 'irc_ctcp' and 'irc_ctcpreply'.
My thanks to Jonathan Steinert.
- Rocco "dngor" Caputo fixed up my DCC code for me, which was so
broken as to exercise POE::Kernel bugs. :-) With his fixes in
mind, I rewrote pretty much all the DCC stuff; it's much less
hairy now.
- Added 'dcc_chat' and 'dcc_accept' commands.
- Moved all scripts into the "examples" directory and added a dummy
test.pl, so it won't hang during CPAN installations anymore.
- Worked around a bug in POE versions <0.1201, which caused DCC
SEND/GET connections not to properly respond to pending data.
- DCC connections should function properly now. Let me know if you
experience problems.
1.0b Sat Jan 13 14:49:22 PST 2001
- This is a beta release. It may not entirely work, and DCC receive
is still unimplemented. I'll list the bugs I remember fixing below.
1.0 final will have DCC receive capability, I promise!
- CTCP event names are now in the form of "irc_ctcp_ping" or
whatever. See the POD documentation.
- CTCP events now actually include the sender and recipient names.
- The infamous "Not an ARRAY reference" bug should now go away. Make
sure you're using a recent version of POE! Turned out it was a bug
in POE::Filter::Line.
0.15 Tue Aug 10 19:21:58 EDT 1999
- Well, it sucked for the first revision, at least. In my eager haste,
I released the CTCP code with numerous debugging prints scattered
throughout the source, some serious brokenness in mixed-mode
messages, and a totally unimplemented put() method. All fixed! You
can now actually send CTCP messages with the 'ctcp' and 'ctcpreply'
events. Now to hack on DCC...
0.14 Sun Aug 8 18:29:46 EDT 1999
- Wrote documentation for POE::Filter::IRC.
- Moved Filter.pm to Filter-IRC.pm, in preparation for adding a
CTCP filter.
- Addi <amh@mbl.is> fixed a nasty bug with public/msg handling in
the Filter-IRC module. I am SUCH a neen.
- Finally sat down and wrote the bloody CTCP filter, at long last.
Don't be surprised if it sucks for the first few revisions... the
last one I wrote did, too. On the other hand, this uses big chunks
of the working code from that effort, so maybe I'll get lucky this
time.
0.13 Fri Jun 4 03:56:13 EDT 1999
- Split the parser off into a separate POE::Filter::IRC module.
The surgery was surprisingly easy, but I had to do an ugly
Makefile.PL hack to get it to install correctly.
0.12 Fri Jun 4 01:16:55 EDT 1999
- Wrote a nice README, finally.
- Fixed a bug in the test.pl script where I accidentally referred
to the 'irc_disconnected' event as 'irc_disconnect'. No wonder it
wasn't shutting down properly.
0.11 Thu Jun 3 18:41:51 EDT 1999
- Spruced up the parser's regexps with a lot of " +"'s.
- Turned off all the massively verbose debugging code.
- Realized that I need to write a README.
0.1 Thu Jun 3 16:55:24 EDT 1999
- Completely functional, minus CTCP and DCC.
0.1a Mon May 17 09:11:48 EDT 1999
- Released for a little private QA to oznoid and dngor. Moderately
functional. Can send every command (I think), and has a
half-written parser that handles the most common IRC events, and
a few which it wasn't meant to handle.
