While exploring what it would take to get the 'new script' button working,
I encountered the fact, some way down in the rabbit hole, that if a user
renamed an item in their inventory and logged out (without a restart of
the simulator), on log in the new name was not preserved.
As far as I can see, this was because any updates which didn't occur
inside a transaction were ignored by opensim. This patch pays attention
to those changes. It generates a new asset when an item is updated and
changes the user's inventory properties appropriately. I believe this
behaviour is in line with the copy-on-write semantics used in the Second
Life protocol - perhaps it could be optimized if we knew for sure that the
only copy of the object was in the user's inventory.
This also means that if you rename an item (e.g. a script) before you drag
it into an object's inventory, the inventory will receive the item's most
recent name and description.
To use , both the user server and Inventory server need to be running this latest revision. (older regions should be able to still be used, just the user won't have inventory on them). Also and HERE IS THE BIG BREAK ISSUE, currently, so that the initial inventory details for a user are added to the inventory db , you need to recreate the accounts using the user server "create user" feature. It should be quite easy to manual populate the inventory database instead but I someone else will need to look into that) Also I've only tested using SQLite as the database provider, there is a Mysql inventory provider but I don't know if it works (SQLite is set as default, so you will need to change it in the inventory server config.xml)
Some work towards persisting Avatar Appearance (what is being worn).
Added OnAvatarNowWearing event to IClientAPI that is triggered by AgentIsNowWearing packets.
stub code to subscribe to this event in AvatarFactoryModule.
Todo: code needs to be added to AvatarFactoryModule to save the uuids to a database and then read them back when that modules TryGetIntialAvatarAppearance() method is called.
Done some changes to Scene to make it easier to subclass it: including changed some private fields to protected and made some methods virtual.
* This helps people who have multiple records in their useragent table.
* This update should be looked at.. because really what it should be doing is initiating a grid wide logoff.
Deleted the CreateTerrainTextureInitial Method which was a 99% duplicate of CreateTerrainTexture, with just a bool field setting difference. That bool is now passed to CreateTerrainTexture as a param.
* The sims properly restart, however they don't yet notify the existing avatars that they are up. To see the sim again, you'll need to log-out and back in until I can figure out how to get the proper data to the sims and to the avatar so they reconnect again.
* Added the child_get_tasks OpenSim.ini flag for testing the UDP packet sending code and packet throttler. This flag gets purposely disabled in grid mode. This flag also has the consequence that you can see the prim in neighboring regions without going into them. Be warned, this causes tons of dropped packets.
