console capable of processing commands. Create LocalConsole as a console
that uses cursor control and context help. Precursor to a distributed
console system for the new grid services. No functional change intended :)
This class handles all the initialising of the grid server.
And made GridServer into basically a generic server that just loads plugins.
So this is a step towards having a generic server that loads service modules.
interface. Shared modules will now only get added once, so the command
handler is called once per module, not once per scene. Removal of scenes
has no adverse effects. Nonshared modules will be called for each scene.
line editing, context sensitive help (press ? at any time), command line
history, a new plugin command system and new appender features thet let you
type while the console is scrolling. Seamlessly integrates the ICommander
interfaces.
* This is done by sending a 'major interface version' number on sim registration. Developers must increment this every time they make a change that would make the previous
OpenSim revision failure incompatible with the new one (non-fatal incompatibilities are fine).
* This number resides in OpenSim.Framework.Servers.VersionInfo.MajorInterfaceVersion
* This allows the grid service to stop older, incompatible regions from connecting
* Region registration is enabled by default in the configuration unless the user chooses otherwise
* On the console
* show status - shows grid status
* enable-reg - enables region registration to the grid
* disable-reg - disables region registration
* Enabling or disabling region registration will not affect any other grid functions or regions already on the grid
- Added lookup in the data-layer
- MySQL works
- SQLite doesn't have a grid-db, so it won't work there
- I added MSSQL-code to the best of my knowledge; but I don't know MSSQL :-)
- Added the plumbing up to OGS1GridServices. This speaks with the grid-server
via XMLRPC.
- Modified MapSearchModule to use the new data. It's backward compatible; if
used with an old grid-server, it just returns one found region instead of a
list.
- Refactored a bit.
Note: This updates data, grid-server and region code. No new files.
Currently module loading is done ad-hoc. I propose creating a simple
loader class that leverages Mono.Addins (and perhaps the new .NET
addins when they become available in mono). Attached is a basic
patch for review that compiles into HEAD, but doesn't yet replace
any existing ad-hoc loaders.
* If the status cannot be retrieved, then the region startup will terminate.
* The aim of this is for earlier detection of situations where the region can send messages out but cannot accept incoming requests (often due to firewall issues)
* This is currently an extremely simplistic check which completely trusts whatever http uri is given by the region
* This contact may be problematic, though since the user service needs to be able to contact the region http uri, it doesn't seem unreasonable for the grid to have to be able to do so too at this stage
* This change will require a prebuild
