-TODO for Irssi SILC Client 1.0
+SILC Runtime Toolkit 1.2 and beyond
+===================================
+
+NOTE: Any item that doesn't have (***DONE) in it, isn't done yet. The
+(***TESTING NEEDED) means that the item has been done but not yet properly
+tested.
+
+NOTE: A TODO entry does not mean that it is ever going to be done. Some
+of the entries may be just ideas, good, bad or ugly. If you want to work
+on some of the TODO entries simply let us know about it by dropping a note
+to silc-devel mailing list or appear on 'silc' channel on SILCNet.
+
+
+Runtime library, lib/silcutil/
==============================
- o Testing - See test plan:
- http://silcnet.org/docs/silc-client-1.0-test.pdf
- http://silcnet.org/docs/silc-client-1.0-test.ps
+ o Add SILC Zip API, compression.
+
+ o file removing, chmod, rmmod, etc. chdir, rmdir, stat, etc. to
+ lib/silcutil/silcfileutil.h.
+
+ o mmap API
+
+ o Multicast support.
+
+ o Implement silc_get_num_cpu.
+
+ o silc_file_readfile and silc_file_writefile should perhaps do the thing
+ with mmap, as it's probably a bit faster.
+
+ o silc_malloc et. al. to respect --with-alignment.
+
+ o Fix universal time decoding (doesn't accept all formats) in silctime.c.
+
+ o Additional scheduler changes: optimize silc_schedule_wakeup. Wakeup
+ only if the scheduler is actually waiting something. If it is
+ delivering tasks wakeup is not needed.
+
+ o silc_stringprep to non-allocating version.
+
+ o Add builtin SOCKS and HTTP Proxy support, well the SOCKS at least.
+ SILC currently supports SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 but it needs to be compiled
+ in separately.
+
+ o Add silc_xml_parse_stream to parse SilcStream XML stream.
+
+ o SILC XML API (wrapper to expat). (***DONE)
+
+ o Bring silchttp HTTP server library to SRT. (***DONE)
+
+ o Simple SILC Rand API for pseudo-random numbers. (***DONE)
+
+ o Add directory opening/traversing functions (***DONE, TODO Windows & Symbian)
+
+ o regex from /lib/contrib to lib/silcutil, define SILC Regex API. (***DONE)
+
+ o Add functions to manipulate environment variables. (***DONE)
+
+ o Add functions to loading shared/dynamic object symbols (replaces the
+ SIM library (lib/silcsim) and introduces generic library). Add this
+ to lib/silcutil/silcdll.[ch]. (***TESTING NEEDED WIN32, TODO Symbian)
+
+ o silc_getopt routines (***DONE)
+
+ o The SILC Event signals. Asynchronous events that can be created,
+ connected to and signalled. Either own event routines or glued into
+ SilcSchedule. (***DONE)
+
+ o If the event signals are added, the SILC_PARAM_* stuff needs to be
+ moved from silcbuffmt.h to silctypes.h or something similar. (***DONE)
+
+ o In case the SILC Events are done we shall create a new concept of
+ parent and child SilcSchedule's. When new SilcSchedule is created a
+ parent can be associated to it. This association could be done either
+ directly by the parent or by any other children. This way the signals
+ would in effect be global and would reach all children schedulers.
+
+ This relationship would be associative only. The schedulers are still
+ independent and run independently from each other. All schedulers
+ would be linked and could be accessed from any of the schedulers.
+ It should be possible to retrieve the parent and enumerate all children
+ from any of the schedulers.
+ (***DONE)
+
+ o Base64 to an own API (***DONE)
+
+ o Timer API (***DONE)
+
+ o silc_hash_table_replace -> silc_hash_table_set. Retain support for
+ silc_hash_table_replace as macro. (***DONE)
+
+ o SilcStack aware SilcHashTable. (***DONE)
+
+ o SilcStack aware SilcDList. (***DONE)
+
+ o Thread pool API. Add this to lib/silcutil/silcthread.[ch]. (***DONE)
+
+ o Add new functions to SilcStack API in lib/silcutil/silcstack.[ch]. Add
+ silc_stack_[set|get]_alignment. It defines the default alignment used
+ when allocating memory from stack. It can be used to specify special
+ alignments too when needed (such as for hardware devices like crypto
+ accelerators). Move also the low level silc_stack_malloc and
+ silc_stack_realloc from silcstack_i.h to silcstack.h. Remove the
+ _ua unaligned memory allocation routines. Remove unaligned memory
+ allocation possibility. (***DONE)
+
+ o silc_stack_alloc shouldn't require multiple by 8 size argument, it
+ should figure it out itself. (***DONE)
+
+ o Add '%@' format to silc_snprintf functions.
+ (***DONE)
+
+ o SILC Tls (Thread-local storage) API to lib/silcutil/silcthread.[ch].
+ (***DONE)
+
+ o Change silc_gettimeofday on Unix to use clock_gettime with REALTIME
+ clock if it is available, otherwise use gettimeofday(). (***DONE)
+
+ o Generic SilcResult that includes all possible status and
+ error conditions and generic errno API. (***DONE)
+ (o Structured log messages to Log API. Allows machine readable log
+ messages. Would allow sending of any kind of data in a log message.) maybe
-TODO for SILC Server 1.0
-========================
+ (o Change some stream routines (like socket stream API) to accept ANY
+ stream and use silc_stream_get_root to get the socket stream from the
+ given stream. This will make various stream APIs more easier to use
+ when user doesn't have to dig up the correct stream.
- o Testing
+ Add silc_stream_get_root and add get_root stream operation. It
+ returns the root of the stream or NULL if stream doesn't have root.) maybe
+ (o SilcIpAddr abstraction. Ipv4 and Ipv6 support to the abstaction.)
+ maybe
-TODO/bugs In SILC Libraries
-===========================
+ (o SILC specific socket creation/closing routines to silcnet.h, wrappers
+ to all send(), recv(), sendto() etc. Bad thing is that we'd have to
+ define all socket options, sockaddrs, etc.) maybe
- o Test cases for all cryptographic primitive in lib/silccrypt/
+ (o Fast mutex implementation. Fast rwlock implementation. Mutex and
+ rwlock implementation using atomic operations.) not for now.
- o Test cases for all payload encoding and decoding routins in lib/silccore/
- o Test cases for math library routines in lib/silcmath/
+Windows Support
+===============
-TODO in Toolkit Documentation
-=============================
+Symbian OS Support
+==================
-Stuff that needs to be done in order to complete the Tooolkit Reference
-Manual (Do these to 0.9.x).
+ o Something needs to be thought to the logging globals as well,
+ like silc_debug etc. They won't work on EPOC. Perhaps logging
+ and debugging is to be disabled on EPOC. The logging currently works
+ by it cannot be controlled, same with debugging. SILC Global API
+ MUST be used with all globals on Symbian.
- o Write "Programming with Toolkit" document, describing how to build
- Toolkit, how the build system works, where is everything, how
- new (external) projects can be glued into Toolkit (use irssi as an
- example), and how external projects can use Toolkit without gluing into
- it (how to link etc), debugging, architecture, types, etc.
+ o gethostname() returns "Function not implemented". Others may return
+ the same. We should fix that probably to use RHostResolver and
+ GetHostName().
- o Searching of predefined keywords, exact and partial matches (would be
- nice).
+ o silc_thread_exit should call User::Exit().
