If true, this setting reuses dynamically generated textures (i.e. created through osSetDynamicTextureData() and similar OSSL functions) where possible rather than always regenerating them.
This results in much quicker updates viewer-side but may bloat the asset cache (though this is fixable).
Also, sometimes issue have been seen where dynamic textures do not transfer to the viewer properly (permanently blurry).
If this happens and that flag is set then they are not regenerated, the viewer has to clear cache or wait for 24 hours before all cached uuids are invalidated.
CUrrently experimental. Default is false, as before.
Intended for use if there are future issues with mono crashes whilst generate dynamic textures.
This test is triggered via a new test-stress nant target.
Not run by default.
Disabled (status quo) by default.
This flag makes the dynamic texture module reuse cache previously dynamically generated textures given the same input commands and extra params for 24 hours.
This occurs as long as those commands would always generate the same texture (e.g. they do not contain commands to fetch data from the web).
This makes texture changing faster as a viewer-cached texture uuid is sent and may reduce simulator load in regions with generation of lots of dynamic textures.
A downside is that this stops expiry of old temporary dynamic textures from the cache,
Another downside is that a jpeg2000 generation that partially failed is currently not regenerated until restart or after 24 hours.
This prevented more than one additional ordinary folder from being created in the base "My Inventory" user folder.
Added regression test for this case.
Switched tests to use XInventoryService with mostly implemented TestXInventoryDataPlugin rather than InventoryService
Disabled TestLoadIarV0_1SameNameCreator() since this has not been working for a very long time (ever since XInventoryService) started being used
since it doesnt' preserve creator data in the same way as InventoryService did and so effectively lost the OSPAs.
However, nobody noticed/complained about this issue and OSPAs have been superseded by HG like creator information via the --home save oar/iar switch.
This is to accomodate situations where viewers will create more than one 'type' subfolder (e.g. calling cards)
But at the same time to prevent multiple such 'system' folders (those in the base "My Inventory" user folder).
This also makes GetFolderForType() only return a folder in the base "My Inventory" folder, if such a type folder exists
This doesn't affect any core OpenSimulator code since all callers were passing true anyway
But it allows region modules to create objects that are never persisted.
This is necessary because commit 8131a24 (Tue Mar 27 10:08:13 2012) started passing the config section name rather than hardcoding "AssetService"
This meant that the HG external-facing asset service tried to read ConnectionString from [HGAssetService] rather than [AssetService].
On SQLite, not finding this meant that it fell back to [DatabaseService], which is set for OpenSim.db rather than Asset.db.
Therefore, all external asset requests returned null.
Solution taken here is to create an [HGAssetService] section with the same ConnectionString as [AssetService].
This bug does not affect normal MySQL/MSSQL config since they use the [DatabaseService] connection string anyway.
Addresses http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=6200, many thanks to DanBanner for identifying the exact problem commit which was very helpful.
This was a regression from OpenSimulator 0.7.3.1 which did not contain this bug.
In testing, it appears that if multiple threads dispose of separate GDI+ objects simultaneously,
the native malloc heap can become corrupted, possibly due to a double free(). This may be due to
bugs in the underlying libcairo used by mono's libgdiplus.dll on Linux/OSX. These problems were
seen with both libcario 1.10.2-6.1ubuntu3 and 1.8.10-2ubuntu1. They go away if disposal is perfomed
under lock.
This is to resolve a reported issue in http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=6232
Here, the land management module is using OpenSim.Framework.Cache (the only code to currently do so apart from the non-default CoreAssetCache).
This is to allow a second attempt to remove an avatar even if "show connections" shows them as already inactive (i.e. close has already been attempted once).
You should only attempt --force if a normal kick fails.
This is partly for diagnostics as we have seen some connections occasionally remain on lbsa plaza even if they are registered as inactive.
This is not a permanent solution and may not work anyway - the ultimate solution is to stop this problem from happening in the first place.
This was working in 0.7.2 but was accidentally removed from 0.7.3.
The --publish option for "save oar" will now save oars stripped of parcel owner information as well as scene object info.
Please use the --publish option if you want to publish oars that may be later loaded by others to the same grid from which they were saved.
