SourceMM 1.1

[BAILOPAN]

SourceMM 1.1 is slated for release sometime within the next 2 weeks.

It has replaced all STL with home-brewn classes. This means two things:

Plugins will no longer need libstdc++.so.6
All plugins will need to be recompiled to force the usage of the new classes internally.

Note, however, that your plugins still MUST be compiled against gcc-3.4, as that is the version SourceHook uses for very, very implementation specific things.

I've not had time to work on this, got too involved when it came to rewriting std::map. It'll be at least another week.

[nbigdog2000]

aw man, alright, do a good job on whatever you do! do rush anything....

AFAIK you need GCC 3.4+ to do anything HL2 related.

I LUV YOU BAILOPAN!

[imported_EviL_GoD]

any updates yet?

[imported_nighttrain]

Any update? I am dying for this update so I can run a CSS:DM server. :)

Thanks Bailopan.

[BAILOPAN]

I've finished and committed SourceMM 1.1 to CVS. If testing goes fine today I'll release tonight.

[imported_EviL_GoD]

thank you so much for your time and effort!

[imported_nighttrain]

Thanks Bail. :P

[imported_nighttrain]

Did testing go bad Bail?

[BAILOPAN]

No it's fine, but I realized I need to update CS:S DM at the same time, I'm trying to do that quickly.

[imported_EviL_GoD]

o ok cool.....do u have any updates for sourcemod

[imported_nighttrain]

Just wondering where do you stand on this Bail? I'm dying to get a css:dm server up and running.

[imported_nighttrain]

Has there been any progress Bail? Any idea when 1.1 will be released?

[BAILOPAN]

Update:

We tried to preserve backward compatibility and failed. So, definitively, all plugins will need to be recompiled.

We're going to add more additions to SourceHook over the next few days to prevent this from happening in the future.

For anyone using the SourceMM that's in CVS, please do not distribute binaries for it or against it, as the interface WILL BE CHANGING MORE before the next release.

[BAILOPAN]

The final API is now in CVS. Nothing will be changing and hopefully the release will be in a day or two.

There will be one more SourceHook change for re-entrancy in the future but not in this release, and it shouldn't affect backwards compatibility.

[imported_EviL_GoD]

will this be a stable release for you to work on sourcemod ?

No worries, but alot of plugins are waiting for the release of 1.1 (like VIP mod)

what is the stats?

[FlyingMongoose]

anxiously waiting....

[BAILOPAN]

Okay, due to POPULAR DEMAND I have rewritten more API. Plugin developers should note that this should most certainly be the final change.

The differences: I am removing the factory overloading system, it was bad. Metamod:Source now has an intuitive event listener that you can use to capture and override some events. You can see:

- Plugin loads/unloads
- Factory queries

Also, I added in a new MetamodFactory, which returns SourceHook and the PluginManager. LASTLY, you can override the MetamodFactory, which is how plugins should share interfaces.

These changes are in CVS for API reference only, I will finish implementing and testing them tonight. I'll release ASAP... originally I was waiting on CS:S DM but I realized I can't keep doing that.

BAILOPAN for president!
