- This patch enables LCDd to retrieve its configuration
options from an LDAP directory.
- The code was tested with OpenLDAP 2.1.x (21<=x<=22) only.
- LDAP support is disabled by default and has to be enabled
with ./configure --enable-ldap.
(See ./configure --help for other options. Not all options
have any effect yet.)
- Currently only anonymous LDAP binds are supported.
- The DN of the main configuration object has to be passed to LCDd
instead of the configuration file location:
LCDd -c "ldap://yourhost.yourcompany.com/cn=config1,cn=lcdproc,dc=yourcompany dc=COM"
The basic idea behind the LCDproc object classes is that they
are more or less verbatim copies of the corresponding sections in a
generic LCDd.conf
- Unfortunately schema files cannot be provided yet, because LCDproc does
not have a registered OID namespace and OID hijacking is prohibited.
* Ability to specify port and address to bind to
* By default, binds only to 127.0.0.1 port 13666
* Client commands now return usage when no options given
* New driver command: getinfo
* Added comments all over the place
* Used #defines to further document code
* Used #defines to set up compile-time defaults, etc.
* Cleaned up client command argument analysis in client_functions.c
* Beginning support of syslog
* Some bug fixes
as argument introducers. in 0.4-pre10, these were changed
from foo to -foo and this broke many clients. This change
should fix that and be backward/forward compatible.
+ Added a noop function to the protocol. This is useful for writing
shell script clients of LCDproc.
+ Changed the shared sock_send_string function to NOT send the
ending NUL ('\0') byte with the string. This was confusing
in Perl clients which saw NUL's as the first character of
each reply. WARNING: The LCDPROC client depended on this
behavior, your client may too. Use the newline instead.
See the code in clients/lcdproc/main.c (look for "switch(buf[i])")
to see one way to handle this. This should allow new clients
to connect to old servers and vice-versa.
+ Messed with include structure in .c files. It should no longer
be necessary to specify ../.. to get to shared code headers.
Also, since we are using automake, the global config.h can be
found with just #include "config.h" as it's location is included
in a -I to the compilers. As a result "make distcheck" now works.
longer allow the -Wp,-lang-c-c++-comments directive. Also cleaned
up getloadavg support that had problems on Solaris and RedHat 7.1.
Removed unused variables in a number of functions as a result of
warnings when compiled with --enable-debug config option.
Fixed lots of small problems in various places.
Added new protocol commands screen_add/del_key so screens
can request keystrokes when they are being displayed.
Lots of work on CPU GRAPH and BIG NUMBER CLOCK screens.
Fixed 'output' function in MtxOrb.c

Fixed 'output' function in MtxOrb.c
- bugfixes for display != MatrixOrb LCD
- changes the meaning of output_state
+ it's now a bitfield where evry bit corresponds to
one output
- protocol change
output on|off|value
where on = all outputs on
off = all outputs off
value = output on for all 1 bits
- changes the behavior for key presses
Keypresses are now deliverd to _all_ clients (not only
the one with the active screen)
reason: I have an client which is only active a few seconds after
an keypress
- changes the protocol so that a response is sent for every
command
reason: the client needs to communicate with the server with a
minimal latency
process LCDd now compiles and runs properly on Solaris! Additionally, he
has provided a new driver for a 16x2 LCD made by an Australian company.
I've compiled and executed this new code on a Solaris 2.6 box, and while I
don't have the display the new driver uses, LCDd tries to use it anyway,
fails (since the device isn't installed), and continues running, so this
looks solid!
Passed *every* piece of source in this project through indent. I'm setting
things up with ctags soon and am actually going to *gasp* use a nice
programming environment to continue development in. :)
