2010-02-13Added and updated the license info in all the source files, they still saidMike Buland
copyright 2007-2008.
2009-11-12I've started my campaign to clean up all of the header files in libbu++ as farMike Buland
as includes go. This required a little bit of reworking as far as archive goes, but I've been planning on changing it aronud for a bit anyway. The final result here is that you may need to add some more includes in your own code, libbu++ doesn't include as many random things you didn't ask for anymore, most of these seem to be bu/hash.h, unistd.h, and time.h. Also, any Archive functions and operators should use ArchiveBase when they can instead of Archive, archivebase.h is a much lighterweight include that will be used everywhere in core that it can be, there are a few classes that actually want a specific archiver to be used, they will use it (such as the nids storage class). So far, except for adding header files, nothing has changed in functionality, and no other code changes should be required, although the above mentioned archive changeover is reccomended.
2009-07-16Client code is even cooler, it supports flushing data in case of buffering inMike Buland
the filter chain, I'm going to go ahead and make that optional coming up.
2009-06-30Bu::Client now gives you the option to add additional filters to the filterMike Buland
chain on the base stream, which for the moment is a socket. I also demonstrate this in the new rot13 test, with a rot13 filter, and a simple echo protocol.
2009-01-16I...think that's a little better. Wow, function pointers in windows have aMike Buland
lot of problems. This may require a little more research, but basically, you can't just call them inline wherever you'd like. I managed to get it to work by providing simple one line wrapper functions for each function we acquired as a pointer. Crazy mess. Anyway, it should load the library just once now, and Bu::Socket looks a little bit cleaner, but not a heck of a lot. I also added some more docs and removed the author references.
2009-01-11A new feature has been added to Bu::Server. It's going to be trickier toMike Buland
implement in Bu::ItoServer, but I'll get to it. Basically you can trigger a "tick" any time you want and it will propegate as an onTick event to all active clients. You can also have these generated automatically everytime the system passes through a polling cycle. In this case, you should never ever write data to the socket every tick. It will cause your program to go bursurk.
2009-01-09Hey, that's better. The server now idles the same, but sends data uber-fast!Mike Buland
2008-02-07Just updated the copyright date.Mike Buland
2008-02-07Wowee, I think all this new stuff works, Conduit I don't need now, so it's notMike Buland
done yet. The Client class now supports a function called getLink() which returns a ClientLink object. This object may then be passed off to any other class and called to send messages to that client object. It is threadsafe if ItoServer is being used, and not for Server. Sending a message via a ClientLink calls the onMessage function on the assosiated protocol. Note that sending messages from within protocol event handlers or functions they call, while safe, may be slow and it's reccomended that you avoid this.

2007-10-08Added some helpers and fixes to Bu::Client, also got all the basics of aMike Buland
general Http handler working, the test for the moment, is Doxysrv, I'll probably write a cute little stand-alone one in libbu++ later as a demo/test.
2007-10-04Discovered that the Bu::Client::disconnect() function didn't do anything. ThatMike Buland
has been fixed, it now safely disconnects after emptying the Client's outgoing buffer. Added some more helpers to Bu::FString. Added the beginings of ProtocolHttp using a new method for processing protocols that's based more strongly on an NFA state machine, this makes sense, but I never had the desire to actually try implementing it before. It's working pretty well.
2007-10-03Nothing about function. I added a bunch of docs and re-arranged a bunch ofMike Buland
the existing docs. Taking advantage of some of the cooler extra features of doxygen I've started writing extra how-to pages covering working with sections of the library. Also, I started grouping the classes by function so they show up on the Modules page together, very cute.
2007-07-10Fixed a bunch of stuff, I don't even know what...Mike Buland
2007-06-29A few changes here and there, mainly related to getting the new Server systemMike Buland
working in optimal condition...
2007-06-28Updated the client, it now takes all intXX_t and uintXX_t as a param for writeMike Buland
as a convinience.
2007-06-28Client code is better, so is the socket, you can get addresses and other coolMike Buland
things from it. The plugger had yet another bugfix...plugger...
2007-06-28The FString has more things that it can do...now.Mike Buland
2007-06-28Many minor changes, hopefully the header fixes will keep future header macroMike Buland
conflicts from happening. And, from now on, other projects should do -Ilibbu++ not -Ilibbu++/src so we can get ready for an installed version of libbu++.
2007-06-18The client/server system now works both ways, in and out, and works as well asMike Buland
the old one in pretty much every way, and better in most. It's much easier to understand. And the atom class is better.
2007-06-18Added the protocol class. servers work, but don't send data, updated the streamsMike Buland
to include many more state indicators and caps queries, and everything is working better in general.
2007-05-17Lots of cool new stuff, the Server class actually works for everything exceptMike Buland
actually interacting with clients, and the Client class is almost there, except that it doesn't really do anything yet.
