IRC UDF - Updated Version of Chips' IRC UDF - Release: V1.22 - 09/06/2016 - Technical Writer Needed!

[draien]

Hey rcmaehl,

Thanks so much for the UDF. I have found 2 bugs when it comes to _IRCGetMsg

Any message (e.g. PRIVMSG) ist not forwarded, when it contains umlauts/german mutations and when the message only contains a dot '.'

I think this is due to the AscW at:

Until AscW(StringRight($_vRecv, 1)) = 10

@Line 355. But I could be wrong.

Is there a simple fix for this?

​Sorry about the EXTREMELY late reply, I'll see what I can do about this by diving into foreign IRC channels with debug on.

A bit of a forewarning to the users that use my IRC UDFs, the next few updates shared on the forums will be majorly script breaking. As always, I will provide details on how to fix what got broken in your scripts in the post containing the update information.

 

Major Upcoming Changes include:

• IRC Constants File containing variables for IRC Magic Numbers
  https://www.alien.net.au/irc/irc2numerics.html
   
• GUI Console Example to bypass CUI Console Only Supporting ASCII
   
• Example Files for Each IRC Function
  Some functions may not have examples in first updates due to impending split
   
• Functions splitting to match AutoIt standards
  Specifically _IRCChannelTopic and _IRCMultiMode
   
• Functions renamed to match AutoIt standards
  To Be Determined
   
• Switching from listing each file individually for download to a single ZIP file
  Allows ease of downloads with the great increase in file count
   
• Removal of unneeded parameters
  Specifically $_iChars in _IRCGetMsg() as it's deprecated now that _IRCGetMsg receives 1 packet, and 1 packet only, at a time

@rcmaehl Is it possible to support SSL? Sorry, I know that it would be hard to implement, but I am a TCP & UDP noob

Don't mind at all. Don't know squat about ssl implementation but I'm in school for IT Net Administration + Forensics which includes a ton of coding so I'm sure I'll figure it out within the next couple years Dx

 

EDIT: Actually, would you like permission to make commits to the actual github?

Thanks for the update . It reminds me to update my UDF too .

[mLipok]

Here is little refactored function:
 

Func _IRCChannelInvite($_vIRC, $_sUser, $_sChannel)
    Select ;Parameter Checking, Trust No One
        Case $_vIRC = ""
            Return SetError(1, 1, 0)
        Case $_vIRC = -1
            Return SetError(1, 2, 0)
        Case $_sUser = ""
            Return SetError(2, 1, 0)
        Case StringInStr($_sUser, " ")
            Return SetError(2, 2, 0)
        Case $_sChannel = ""
            Return SetError(3, 1, 0)
        Case Not $_sChannel = ""
            Switch AscW(StringLeft($_sChannel, 1))
                Case Not 33 And Not 35 And Not 38 And Not 43
                    Return SetError(3, 2, 0)
            EndSwitch
        Case StringInStr($_sChannel, " ")
            Return SetError(3, 2, 0)
    EndSelect
    
    TCPSend($_vIRC, "INVITE " & $_sUser & " " & $_sChannel & @CRLF)
    If @error Then Return SetError(4, @error & @extended, 0)

    Return 1
EndFunc   ;==>_IRCChannelInvite

---

Func _IRCChannelJoin($_vIRC, $_sChannels, $_sKeys = "")
    Select ;Parameter Checking, Trust No One
        Case $_vIRC = ""
            Return SetError(1, 1, 0)
        Case $_vIRC = -1
            Return SetError(1, 2, 0)
        Case $_sChannels = ""
            Return SetError(2, 1, 0)
        Case StringInStr($_sChannels, " ")
            Return SetError(2, 2, 0)
    EndSelect

    If Not $_sKeys = "" Then $_sKeys = " " & $_sKeys
    TCPSend($_vIRC, "JOIN " & $_sChannels & $_sKeys & @CRLF)
    If @error Then Return SetError(3, @error & @extended, 0)
    
    Return 1
EndFunc   ;==>_IRCChannelJoin

---

Try to refactor the other ones.

Why you are using @error & @extended ?

If @error Then Return SetError(3, @error & @extended, 0)

This is strange to me.

This is strange also because TCPSend not setting @extended (according to HelpFile).
