Generate ngIRCd version number from GIT tag

2010-10-24T19:51:38+00:00

Now the ngIRCd release/version number is deduced from the "current" annotated GIT tag; see "git describe --help" for details. This is the same scheme the Linux kernel uses and gives much more details version numbers for interim releases and inofficial source archives generated using "make dist". Please note: the version number is only updated it the autogen.sh script is run; so after pulling in and pushing out new commits, you should run ./autogen.sh!

./configure: check if C compiler can compile ISO Standard C

2010-10-24T12:14:30+00:00

This is required for enabling ansi2knr on systems that don't have an ANSI C compiler installed (e.g. on A/UX with Apple standard C compiler).

./configure: check support for C prototypes again

ngIRCd release 17~rc1

2010-10-11T21:25:48+00:00

Bump version number to "17-dev"

2010-09-13T22:05:31+00:00

Add new 'delayed' signal handlers.

2010-09-11T09:36:12+00:00

Allows to defer/queue signal processing for execution on the next event dispatch call, i.e. we can perform any signal action in normal, non-signal context. Example uses: - Reload everything on HUP without writing a global "SIGHUP_received" variable - Dump status of internal Lists on SIGUSR1, etc.
