new code for the daemon :)

[raphael]

I'm just about to commit some more changes I just made to the code.
Within those changes there is some new code for the daemon

The new version doesn't include new features but to allow to say helo and then bye (instead of the old behaviour that required to say: helo, execute query, bye).

I've also tried to clean up the code and the Makefiles so it should be easier to understand now.

Just for the record:

Quote:$ telnet localhost 9876
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
250 OK ispCP Daemon v1.1 Welcomes You!
helo ME
250 OK 127.0.0.1/ME
execute query
250 OK request is being processed.
bye
250 OK Good Bye!
Connection closed by foreign host.

and

Quote:$ telnet localhost 9876
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
250 OK ispCP Daemon v1.1 Welcomes You!
helo it's me once again
250 OK 127.0.0.1/it's me once again
bye
250 OK Good Bye!
Connection closed by foreign host.

Hi raphael

With this change an extension of the "Port 9876 Protocol" is not possible anymore.
If there are no plans to ever add new commands to the handshake it's fine. On the other side this

Code:

execute query
250 OK request is being processed.

is not really time consuming, is it?

Well, since there are plans to completely start a new modular control panel thing (ispcp not omega) - this change cannot be so bad :-)

/Cheers (sorry, I'm very busy at the moment, but I hope to find some time for ticket 387)

what do you mean?

it does what is has always been doing: run the requests manager

Just to clarify: there's no need to manually connect to the daemon, the GUI does this when required.

Yes, I know. I just imagined, maybe there could be a way to say:
"execute query" - this runs the actual code.
Or we could expand the "protocol" and say
"execute another query" - and then some very useful thing is done which cannot be put into the database of today...
But - no problem. I think it's not needed to create a more sophisticated protocol :-)
so - connect and disconnect (more ore less) is enough to start the request manager...

:-) Cheers

The problem with that is that anyone can connect to the daemon so anyone would be able to run a query

yeah, that's why it's maybe better not to build a big system on this base...

ms would do that - because of the compatibility :-)))

some parts can be kept... and some others only need to cleaned up
