Thus, it should no longer find unintended files under the -"valve" subdirectory. -- Normalize filenames under win32 to use slashes (/) and lowercase chars, -to get rid of mixed-slashes (ie "half-life\cstrike/dlls") and to -simplify pathname comparisons. -- Also, canonicalize filenames under both win32/linux to remove ".." and -redundant "/" path components, to provide more reliable pathname -comparisions. -- If meta_CVarRegister fails to find a corresponding plugin for a cvar, it -now logs only a Debug message rather than an Error message, as a cvar_t -that's malloc'd by a plugin can't be traced back. Problem reported by -Olo. -- In plugin trace, added "classname" to DispatchSpawn output. -- Added is_absolute_path() to centralize the logic, and to be more -OS-precise. -- Split meta_init_gamedll() from meta_load_gamedll() so that the correct -and normalized Gamedir is available earlier in the code. -- #define NAME_MAX and PATH_MAX to the correct win32 constants, rather -than using (inaccurate) internal values. -- Renamed internal classes RegFunc to RegCmd, to provide more easily -associated names. -- Lots of internal file organization changes: -- Removed superfluous symlinks in docs dir. -- Renamed toplevel doc files to *.txt. -- Added Config.mak to toplevel dir, to provide project name and subdirs, -so that toplevel Makefile can be used for multiple projects. -- Added copyrights to Makefiles. -- Added blurbs to engine notes for FunctionFromName and NameForFunction, -based on investigation of singleplayer support. -- In source Makefile, added support for compiling linux-only or -win32-only projects. -- In source Makefile, fixed vdate.o to properly compile for each link. -- Removed tmp files in msvc dir (.ncb, .plg). -- Added copyright/GPL blurb to *.rc files. -- In stub/meta_api.cpp, comment out unused variables rather than doing -"if(var)" to satisfy gcc -Wunused. -- Reduced vers_meta.h to just the version and other common info, and -create info_name.h for module-specific name, desc, etc, so that I'll -only have to edit 1 file when increasing version/date for all the DLLs -distributed with Metamod. -- Made res_meta.rc common among Metamod and the plugins, rather than -having a separate res_plugin.rc. -- In source Makefile, added "--include-dir" args to windres, so it can -find the now common vers_meta.h. -- Source Makefile now copies targets into ../dlls, rather than doing -that only for comprehensive "dlls" targets. -- Added "-fno-exceptions -fno-rtti" to possibly reduce code size, -suggested by Jussi Kivilinna. -- For plugins, renamed ie "mm_wdmisc" to "wdmisc_mm" where it was missed -earlier. -- For plugins, better organized common code, to make it more adaptable -to other plugin projects (ie, singlep).

No new entities. -- Added mod recognition and entities for Rocket Crowbar. -- Fixed problem with windows internal DLL version (don't use leading -zeros as compiler will assume it's octal notation). - -## 2001/06/16 `1.08.00` -- Allow specifying/overriding various things on the command line, via -"+localinfo". Fields are: -- mm_gamedll -a bot or other dll, instead of the gamedll based on the gamedir. -Note this is now the preferred method; the "metagame.ini" file is -deprecated, but still recognized for backwards compatibility. -- mm_pluginsfile -a file with the list of mm plugins, instead of "metamod.ini". -- mm_execcfg -a cfg file for mm plugin cvar settings, instead of "metaexec.cfg". -- mm_debug -an initial debug level. -- Examples: -./hlds_run -game cstrike +localinfo mm_gamedll dlls/pod_bot.so -./hlds_run -game cstrike +localinfo mm_pluginsfile mylist.ini -./hlds_run -game cstrike +localinfo mm_execcfg mysettings.cfg -./hlds_run -game cstrike +localinfo mm_debug 7 -- Don't try exec'ing metaexec.cfg unless it exists. -- Added additional entity for Action Half-Life Beta 4, from list forwarded -from the dev team. -- Added a couple additional entities for Global Warfare, from list -provided by the dev team. -- Moved a couple entities from the "common" list back to the "valve" list, -for better organization. -- Changed logmsg "Plugin '%s' interface version didn't match" from -"Warning:" to "Note:" to reduce confusion. -- Added an optional plugin meta-api routine Meta_Init, to be called prior -to GiveFnptrsToDll, to let the dll know that it's going to be -queried/loaded as a metamod plugin, to allow for DLL's that can be used -as both a metamod plugin _and_ a standalone DLL. Raised -META_INTERFACE_VERSION from 5:4 to 5:5. -- Removed segfault handler under linux, when calling plugin console -command functions, as (a) it masked legitimate segfaults in plugin -commands and produced confusing output ("plugin has been unloaded", when -really it segfaultd), and (b) wasn't necessary since the situation -should be covered by other tests. -- Replaced combo SDK macros with inline funcs, and added ones for -accessing serverinfo and localinfo infokey buffers. -- Unfinished code for event triggers is in the source, but is disabled -(since it's not finished yet). - -## 2001/06/10 `1.07.03` -- improper compile was reporting wrong version number - -## 2001/06/07 `1.07.02` -- added mod recognition and best-guess list of entities for Deathmatch -Classic v1 and Global Warfare Beta 1.0. -- updated entity list with best-guess additions and corrected win32 dll -name for Wasteland Beta 2. -- added additional entities for Frontline Force 1.2a, from list forwarded -from the dev team. - -## 2001/05/25 `1.07.01` -- added complete (hopefully) list of additional entities for Front Line -Force 1.2a/1.3. -- added best-guess list of entities for Day of Defeat b1.1. -- added best-guess list of entities for Science & Industry 0.97 (later -confirmed by SI lead programmer). -- added better guess list of entites for Action Half-Life b4. -- shrunk entity lists for Jailbreak and Judgement to include only -mod-specific entities (rather than common Valve entities which are in a -separate list). -- in THREAD_CREATE inline, replaced "(DWORD (*)(void*)) func" with -"(LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE) func" to properly compile under MSVC. -- added engine_notes.html with a list of all the engine routines, and some -comments. -- added utils/getents.sh script to pull entity lists from .so files. - -## 2001/05/08 `1.07.00` -- fixed "%s" server-crashing bug. "You should never pass strings with -unknown contents as the format string." Metamod was passing a -preformatted non-constant (thus unknown contents) string as the format -string (and only argument) when handling printf-style varargs engine -functions (in particular, AlertMessage). Ie, don't do: -printf(buf); -Instead do: -printf("%s", buf); -- added some entities for Action Half-Life Beta4, which should help -address crashing on startup, especially with Last Man Standing random -weapons. Note that I don't have an official, complete list of entities -for the mod, so there may still be some instances of crashing. -- added debugging messages for printf-style varargs engine routines, since -we can't rely on trace_mm for this (as the messages are re-written by -metamod before being passed to trace). -- better info in trace plugin's log messages for AlertMessage and -CreateNamedEntity. -- altered debug levels AlertMessage API routines in api_info.cpp - -## 2001/05/04 `1.06.10` -- fixed a couple of entities for HL Paintball. -- added links.html to docs, a set of links/URLs and books that I found -helpful for the project. -- added to META_INTERFACE_VERSION comments to include associated metmaod -version for each change. -- additional data checking in various MPluginList routines. -- added 'const' to various function arguments to more properly reflect -function purpose. -- changed various function macros to inlines, to provide more obvious type -checking, and easier debugging. -- adjusted private/public members of various classes, to try and make them -more proper. -- added new_handler code, for upcoming code additions. -- added MPluginList::find(plid_t id), for upcoming code additions. -- added thread primitives to osdep, for upcoming code additions. - -## 2001/04/29 `1.06.02` -- added entities and mod recognition for VampireSlayer and Open-Source -Jailbreak. -- updated mod recognition for current names of Action Half-Life's DLL/SO -files. -- added some entities for FLF 1.2a, listed on Botman's news page. -- added some docs for Installation and Compiling. -- added build type info (optimized, debugging, etc) to the SpecialBuild -tag in the version info for the win32 DLL. -- disabled SDK's "DBG_" functions, for MSVC win32 debug compiles. - -## 2001/04/22 `1.06.01` -- added some entities for FLF 1.2. -- better info in trace plugin's log messages for -DispatchObjectCollsionBox, SetModel, FindEntityByString, SetOrigin, -EntOffsetOfPEntity, PEntityOfEntIndex. -- fixed missing initialization for "len" in wdmisc. -- added links to sections in html docs. -- for non-critical interface version mismatch, changed from a META_ERROR -to just META_LOG, since it's not, strictly speaking, an error. - -## 2001/04/17 `1.06.00` -- added support for "metaexec.cfg", a commands file to be exec'd after -loading the plugins, for plugin commands and cvars, since autoexec.cfg -is parsed too early (before plugins loaded) and server.cfg is parsed too -late (after ServerActivate). -- better info in trace plugin's log messages for MessageBegin, -WriteString, AlertMessage, RegUserMsg -- to provide more manageable trace log output, throttled trace plugin to 1 -logmsg per second, by default (of course, this can cause log messages to -be lost). Added cvar "trace_unlimit" (0/1) to enable unlimited logging, -as it did previously. -- added centersay meta-utility functions (CENTER_SAY, CENTER_SAY_PARMS, -CENTER_SAY_VARARGS). Raised META_INTERFACE_VERSION from 5:3 to 5:4. -- fixed crash when trying to load typical game DLLs (like standalone-bots) -as metamod plugins. -- fixed segfault on failed plugin attach; was dlclosing plugin -prematurely. -- in wdmisc, added a proof-of-concept for catching certain game events by -doing string matching on all the log messages produced by the game. -Ugly, to be sure, but interesting nonetheless. -- added more entities for HL Paintball, and fixed the linux so name. -- added "-Wno-unused" to CFLAGS when compiling sdk_util.o, to alleviate -the complaints from #including all the extra SDK header files and class -definitions. -- removed GetEntityAPI routine from trace plugin, as it's unnecessary as a -metamod plugin if already providing GetEntityAPI2. -- in trace, moved gMetaFunctionTable declaration to plugin.cpp, so that -meta_api.cpp can be a standard (plugin-independent) sourcefile used in -any plugin. -- updated the docs to include recent new features, as well as some better -discussion of coding details. - -## 2001/04/06 `1.05.00` -- created utility callback functions, for use by plugins, to reduce code -duplication and help simplify some things. Currently, these consist of -only some convenient logging functions (LOG_CONSOLE, LOG_MESSAGE, -LOG_ERROR, LOG_DEVELOPER). -- added "mutil_funcs_t" to Meta_Query, to pass the meta utility function -table. Increased META_INTERFACE_VERSION from 5:2 to 5:3. -- made sure all exported DLL routines (ie routines that are accessed via -dlsym) are both declared _and defined_ as 'extern "C"', so that the C++ -compiler enforces parameter type-matching, rather than considering -routines with mis-matched arguments/types to be overloaded functions... -Note that it's not sufficient to just be declared "C"; it has to defined -this way as well, to make sure the C++ compiler matches it with the -declaration. Otherwise, again, it'll consider it an overloaded -function, and allow it happily without complaint, and cause the -subsequent dlsym to fail. -- created and deployed C_DLLEXPORT macro for declaring/defining functions -'extern "C" DLLEXPORT'. -- added plugin 'wdmisc' as a basic example, and for my miscellaneous -commands/cvars. -- renamed "mm_stub" and "mm_trace" to "stub_mm" and "trace_mm" to make -plugin name more apparent, and to be more consistent with adminmod_MM. -- had to move plugin_info_t to its own header file, to avoid circular -#include's between meta_api.h and mutil.h. -- in dllapi.cpp and engineapi.cpp, pulled RETURN_API out of META_HANDLE -macro, to make it easier to add code to middle of API routines. -- renamed util_meta.h to support_meta.h, to avoid confusion with mutil.h -- some code cleanup (better 80-column linebreaks). - -## 2001/04/03 `1.02.00` -- added support for Half-Life Paintball -- added "*_mm" and "*_MM" to the list of suffixes to look for when loading -plugins at console. -- log errors when plugin tries to use MRES_SUPERCEDE in a _Post function -(supercede is only relevant in a non-Post function; use OVERRIDE in a -Post function). -- mm_trace: added info to trace log for FindEntityInSphere -- added osdep macro for strcasecmp, for compiling under windows -- fixed a debug log message for GetEngineFunctions_Post -- fixed a couple internal references to engine globals (gpGLobals) -- renamed local SDK API routines to "mm_*" for easier debug breakpoints -- altered debug levels for a couple API routines in api_info.cpp - -## 2001/04/01 `1.01.00` -- replaced use of FStrEQ in most places with !strcasecmp, so that case -doesn't matter for things like console commands ("META LOAD" will now -work in addition to "meta load") and paths (like "-game CSTRIKE"; and -win32 filepaths are case-insignificant anyway). Interestingly, the HL -engine ignores case for console commands ("ADMIN_COMMAND" works), but -cvars are only recognized with matching case ("ADMIN_DEBUG" does not -work). Confusing. -- added "by " when printing author info, to make it a bit clearer -- added a bit more operation info to metamod.html - -## 2001/03/30 `1.00.00` -- released as v1.0, for inclusion with release of Adminmod v2.50. -- added $(VERSFILE) to Makefile and Config.mak, to better insure correct -rebuild on version number changes -- added "i486", "i586", and "i686" to "i386" in the list of prefixes to -look for when loading plugins at console. -- added "MDLL*" and "MNEW" macros in meta_api.h, to be more convenient for -plugins to call GameDLL functions. -- added missing "extern gamedll_funcs_t *gpGamedllFuncs" to meta_api.h -- added handling of gpGamedllFuncs in stub, for example purposes. -- fixed problems with running bots under metagame.ini: -- moved instantiation of Plugins object to before meta_load_gamedll, so -that if gamedll calls engine functions during GiveFnptrsToDll (like -hpb_bot does), META_ENGINE_HANDLE won't crash from a null Plugins object -pointer. -- in GET_FUNC_TABLE_FROM_GAME, memset gamedll.funcs.struct_field, and then -free/null it if the gamedll's GetFuncs call fails, to handle the -situation where the gamedll provides GetNewDLLFunctions(), but doesn't -have anything to return (like hpb_bot does, when the real gamedll -doesn't provide GetNewDLLFunctions). -- add handling of gpGamedllFuncs to mm_stub's Meta_Attach(). - -## 2001/03/27 `1.0-rc5` -- fixed problem with crashing when a plugin failed to load (improper -dereference of null 'info' structure; incomplete fix from rc2). -- added a plugin status "badfile", for plugin files that appear to be -invalid metamod plugins; this is to differentiate from "failed", which -is a valid-looking plugin file (queried) but encountered a failure -attaching/unloading/etc. -- changed "-march=i686" optimization to "-march=i586", and moved this to -only the optimized binaries, and not the debugging binaries. As it -turns out, i686 doesn't work on things like AMD K6-III cpus (I know, go -figure :). -- duplicated functionality of adminmod's "admin.ini", except with a file -named "metagame.ini". This will allow (at least partial) use with game -DLLs that metamod doesn't support yet - "partial" because, although the -game DLL will load, it may not work if it uses entities that metamod -doesn't know about yet. It will also allow use of standalone "bot" -DLLs, which sit between metamod and the gamedll (much like metamod sits -between the engine and the gamedll). -- added console command "meta game" to show information about the loaded -game DLL (to help troubleshoot issues with "metagame.ini"). - -## 2001/03/25 `1.0-rc4` -- split linkfunc.cpp into linkent.h, linkgame.cpp, linkplug.cpp -- split entity lists for mods into separate files, one for each mod; these -are used to build linkgame.cpp -- metamod/mm_trace version info should indicate debugging/optimized compile -- added entity support for Judgement DM -- added "-fno-rtti" to mm_trace gcc cflags, to address problem of -unresolved CSaveRestoreBuffer symbols using older versions of gcc -- lowered debug levels in GetEntityAPI, GetNewDLLFunctions, etc to enable -"+developer" messages (6 -> 3). -- removed "-Werror" from Makefile's default cflags; should only be used -on devl system with edited SDK - -## 2001/03/18 `1.0-rc3` -- central Makefile can now build optimzed as well as debugging targets; -default to compile is debugging; default in 'dlls' dir is optimized -- toplevel Makefile builds release tgz/zip files. TGZ file includes only -linux .so objects, and text files in unix-LF format. ZIP file includes -only win32 .dll objects, and text files in dos-CRLF format, and actual -files rather than symlinks. -- added mod recognition for "judgedm" mod; still need entities list -- added 4 entities for Firearms 2.5 - -## 2001/03/07 `1.0-rc2` -- fixed missing WINAPI in mm_trace GiveFnptrsToDll -- added HTML version of docs -- description field in metamod.ini is now optional: -- uses "name" from plugin info for desc by default -- desc field in metamod.ini will override this -- "meta list" shows just desc, rather than desc and name -- altered debug levels for a couple API routines in api_info.cpp -- added missing "load" cmd in "meta" usage help -- added to "meta load" usage help -- added macros RETURN_META(result) and RETURN_META_VALUE(result, value) to -simplify plugin coding -- added parameter "gamedll_funcs" to meta_attach(), to give each plugin a -copy of the gamedll's API function tables -- raised META_INTERFACE_VERSION to "5:2" -- now load gamedll before plugins (rather than the reverse) so that -it'll have the gamedll func tables to hand to the plugins -- changed trace plugin console commands: -trace_version -> trace version -trace -> trace set -untrace -> trace unset -showtrace -> trace show -- added "trace list " to list all available routines for tracing -- fixed broken trace cvars -- for "meta {load,unload,etc}" console cmd, added matching against plugin -logtag, as well as for "mm_" in plugin file -- handle null 'info' after failed plugin load (ie in "meta info" etc) -- fixed "usage: meta list" errors on some meta commands; was calling -cmd_meta_pluginlist() instead of Plugins->show() -- fixed: unload/attach delayed plugins at changelevel -- now doesn't export newapi if gamedll doesn't provide it -- now doesn't call plugins getnewapi if gamedll doesn't provide it -- fixed incorrect apitable references in MPlugin::show() - -## 2001/02/08 `1.0-rc1` -- fixed unistd.h under MSVC -- fixed S_ISREG under MSVC -- fixed strncasecmp under MSVC -- fixed void svr_meta() returning value -- fixed missing WINAPI in mm_stub GiveFnptrsToDll -- remade MSVC project for metamod -- created MSVC project for mm_stub -- added an example "metamod.ini" to ./docs +- Official changelog of original version is `missed`.
