Subject: [PATCH] A few minor tweaks to the MRM API's in order to make it possible for MRM's to run in a separate AppDomain without poluting the primary appdomain of OpenSim
Specifically:
Added an explicit method for getting the "globals" of the MRM, removing the need to have the MRM script code loaded into the primary domain, in order to set up proxies
Added a [Serializable] attribute to TouchEventArgs, again in order to remove the need to have MRM script code loaded into the primary domain.
---------
Applied with whitespace changes
* MRM Scripts should do appropriate cleanup within this event, to allow for clean shutdowns and script updates. This means unbinding from events you are listening to, and releasing any resources.
This add a configuration option to the MRM module called "hidden".
if MRM is marked as enabled, the module will additionally check for
the "Hidden" flag, before registering for client side scriping events.
When MRM is running hidden, it will not respond to client side
scripting events, giving serverside scripting modules, like MRMLoader
and MRMAddin the ability to leverage the MRM engine. This way, even
a possible clientside exploit will not be possible, while still
allowing the MRM engine to run.
* This includes methods such as PlaySound which take a Position as an argument, allowing you to trigger sounds arbitrarily across the scene without needing a parent object in the position.
This may break a lot of things, but it needs to go in. It was tested in standalone and the UCI grid, but it needs a lot more testing.
Known problems:
* HG asset transfers are borked for now
* missing texture is missing
* 3 unit tests commented out for now
* Example in region module:
Scene.GetModuleInterface<IMRMModule>.RegisterExtension<IMyInterface>(this);
* In the MRM:
//@DEPENDS:MyExtensionModule.dll
...
Host.Extensions<IMyInterface>.DoStuff();
* Interfaces now live in Interfaces subdirectory.
* Namespace does not yet reflect this change.
* Final namespace for MRMs will probably sit somewhere around OpenSim.Extend.MRM[?]
* This allows you to utilize System.Drawing tools on textures within the region.
* Example: use System.Drawing.Bitmap to make your texture, then use Host.Graphics.SaveBitmap to make an asset from it in JPEG2K. You can edit (but not overwrite) existing textures using Host.Graphics.LoadBitmap.
* This makes MRM scripting ever so slightly more secure. If you have enforced Object Permissions enabled, it may be acceptable to enable MRM within your regions.
* Security bug reports on this feature are much appreciated (eg: anyone finding ways around this to execute a MRM as a basic user).
* Corrected issue with MRMs where it would attempt to overwrite an already loaded DLL. (and thus fail with cryptic UnauthorizedAccessException.)
* Made DrunkenTextAppreciationModule.cs MRM not crash with StackOverflowException
* Added some temporary logging to MRM World.*
* Avatar and Object now inherit from IEntity.
* Avatar.Position is now Avatar.WorldPosition to match IObject property.
* Implements event World.OnChat += delegate(IWorld sender, ChatEventArgs e);
* Optimizes SceneGraph - fetches on primitives via "GetGroupByPrim" wont search the entire list if the primitive is infact the root. (Core)
* Updates Test MRM.
