iscream.idl 1.25 (20 years ago) by tdb: Catch a lot of old URL's and update them. Also remove a couple of old files that aren't used.
Makefile 1.13 (21 years ago) by tdb: Tidy up of the client interface code - more commonly known as the "right hand side of the server". Right since the start the filter side of the server has been nice and tree like - every Filter sent data to another Filter. At the top of the tree there was a "special" Filter known as the RootFilter, which to the other Filters just looked like a normal Filter. This was nice, and simple, and expandable. The Client Interface on the other hand was messy. The root filter had some hacky wrapper threads which pulled from a queue and pushed to the relevant client interfaces (one for real time stuff, and the other for databases). There was no simple room for expandability - it was all hardwired to do just what was needed at the time. This commit changes that. A Client Interface now connects to another Client Interface, with a special one being found in the RootFilter (yes, maybe that needs a name change now :-). So we can chain client interfaces, and move other bits and bobs around in the server - for example, alerting no longer needs to be connected to the Client Interface, it can connect straight to the RootFilter (or, wherever the config tells it ;). Hopefully this sanitizes the underlying layout of the server a bit. As a final note, I dropped the DBInterface. This used to insert data in to a MySQL database. We've long since stopped using that, and it's fallen behind and is way out of date. For now, it's gone in to the attic.
