on-/offline updates, calling cards for friends.
This adds methods in the DB layer and changes the MessagingServer, so a full
update (incl. UGAIM) is necessary to get it working. Older regions shouldn't
break, nor should older UGAIM break newer regions, but friends/presence will
only work with all concerned parts (UGAIM, source region and destination
region) at this revision (or later).
I added the DB code for MSSQL, too, but couldn't test that.
BEWARE: May contain bugs.
with the old Grid Instant Message over OGS1. Refactor the EventManager
to be independent of the rigid module structure design imposed by
the current implementation. Message routing is now done in the destination
module rather than in the event manager. This way, more or less granular
solutions are possible without core changes.
* This is a HUGE OMG update and will definitely have unknown side effects.. so this is really only for the strong hearted at this point. Regular people should let the dust settle.
* This has been tested to work with most basic functions. However.. make sure you back up 'everything' before using this. It's that big!
* Essentially we're back at square 1 in the testing phase.. so lets identify things that broke.
Add util functions to compress and uncompress strings.
Fixed a couple of modules so they use SceneCommunicationService rather than directly call functions on the CommsManager.
* Friend status updates are still only local, so you still won't know before instant messaging someone if they're online.
* The server each user is on and the user server must be updated or the instant message won't get to the destination.
* Each module directory is currently inside one of the following category folders: Agent (Anything relating to do with Client<->Server communications.), Avatar (Anything to do with the avatar or presence inworld), Framework (Classes modules can use), Grid (Grid traffic, new OGS2 grid comms), Scripting (Scripting functions, etc), World (The enrivonment/scene, IE Sun/Tree modules.)
* This should be moved into a seperate project file.
