At least on mono 2.6.4, running GC.Collect() is not guaranteed to force gc of all objects when run in the same method where those objects had references.
Therefore, GC.Collect() is now being done in the per-script teardown of ObjectTortureTests.
In addition, scene loop update is being run after garbage collection in order to clean out the viewer update list of scene objects in the SceneGraph.
These measures mean that scene objects/parts are now garbage collected after a test run if deleted from the scene, resulting in a much better memory usage report (though probably still not very accurate).
However, deletion takes a very long time - what's really needed is to find out now why the entire scene isn't being GC'd by this measure.
This change hasn't yet been applied to the other stress tests.
This illustrates that references to Scene, SOG, etc. are not currently being released when a stress test ends (or at regression test end in general).
This means even the current stress tests take much more memory than they need, a problem that will have to be addressed.
The Path.GetDirectoryName call in Compiler.CompileFromDotNetText is unnecessary since AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory is always a directory.
Later path concatenation is already done by Path.Combine() which handles any trailing slash.
Removing Path.GetDirectoryName() will not affect the runtime but allows NUnit to work since it doesn't add a trailing slash to AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory.
These can be run using the "nant torture" target. They are not part of "nant test" due to their long-run future nature.
Such tests are designed to do some testing of extreme situations and give some feedback on memory usage, etc.
However, data can be inconsistent due to different machine circumstances and virtual machine actions.
This area is under development.
Support for viewer side of telehub management. Can manupulate Telehubs and SpawnPoints from the viewer estate managemnt tools. This is a work in progress and does not yet persist or affect teleport routing.
This means that avatar/appearance data of other avatars and scene objects for a client will be sent after the ack rather than possibly before.
This may stop some avatars appearing grey on login.
This introduces a new OpenSim.Framework.ISceneAgent to accompany the existing OpenSim.Framework.ISceneObject and ISceneEntity
This allows IClientAPI to handle this as it can't reference OpenSim.Region.Framework.Interfaces
This is required for the substitution of different HTTP servers or the newer HttpServer.dll without having to commit to a particular implementation.
This is also required to write regression tests that involve the HTTP layer.
If you need to recompile, all you need to do is replace OSHttpRequest/OSHttpResponse references with IOSHttpRequest/IOSHttpResponse.
This required an option to be added to NullRegionData via ConnectionString for it to act as a non-static instance, so that regression tests (which only load this class once) don't get hopeless confused and complex to compensate.
Normal standalone operation unaffected.
This stops the npc walking backwards if the target is directly behind.
This means that the npc no longer returns to its original rotation once movement has finished.
If you want this behaviour, please store and reset the original rotation after movement.
This is somewhat to address http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=5678
This meant punching in another AddUser() method in IUserManagement to do a direct name to UUID associated without the account check (since NPCs don't have accounts).
May address http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=5645
This is done by introducing a PresenceType enum into ScenePresence which currently has two values, User and Npc.
This seems better than a SaveAttachments flag in terms of code comprehension, though I'm still slightly uneasy about introducing these semantics to core objects
this is to allow walking on prims. it will be up to the script writer to be sure that there is a continuous path.
currently implemented in osNpcMoveToTarget(), but none of this is final.
