Release notes ------------- v1.0.0: ------- Released as 1.0.0 because current PEAR rule require this for stable packages, there are _no_ big changes in this release! fixes: - renamed Net_SmartIRC_base::Net_SmartIRC to Net_SmartIRC_base::Net_SmartIRC_base a PHP4 bug made it work, in PHP5 its fixed and doesn't (closes PEAR bug #1466, sf.net patch #967067) - fixed a bug in _rawreceive() the parser checked if he found a colon (messagepart) but +1 was added, the check never worked right (I found this bug while porting SmartIRC to C#) - fixed bug in _gettype() the regexs was too sloppy, sometimes it got confused, this can break easily the ChannelSync code. - fixed bug in _event_rpl_whoreply() on some IRC networks, the channel info in who replies can't be used, they return sometimes random channels, this can break ChannelSync code. - fixed include paths in example scripts (closes PEAR bug #2042) changes: - applied load socket extension patch (sf.net patch #911993) from Anatoly Techtonik <techtonik@users.sourceforge.net> if the socket extension is not loaded, it will now try to load it for *nix and windows. new: - added objListenFor() method it works like listenFor() but returns an array of the received ircdata objects (not just ircdata->message like listenFor() does) Package Info ------------- Net_SmartIRC is a PHP class for communication with IRC networks, which conforms to the RFC 2812 (IRC protocol).
