C-Ares doesn't go through the Name Service Switch (NSS) and thus can't
resolve certain classes of names. Generally this doesn't matter and the
whole idea of NSS is rather annoying. Nevertheless until C-Ares gets better
support, adding this hack to go through getaddrinfo() for .local domain look
up.
This reverts commit 9926dacd14.
- Adds new dgram module, for all data-gram type transports
- Supports both UDP client and servers
- Supports Unix Daemon sockets in DGRAM mode too (think syslog)
- Uses a shared Buffer and slices that as needed to be reasonably
performant.
- One supplied test program so far, test-dgram-pingpong
- Passes test cases on osx 10.6 and ubuntu 9.10u
The current node has a bug where it will fail to pass the option argument
immediately preceding the first non-option argument to V8. That is the
--perf flag will be ignored by V8 when running 'node --perf script.js'.
a) create a layer of indirection in net.Stream to allow swapping in
different read/write implementations and
b) emit an 'fd' event when file descriptors are received over a UNIX pipe,
as finally as a tangential benefit
c) remove a bunch of conditionals from the primary codepaths for
ease-of-reading.
This adds the following options to the `configure` program
--shared-v8 Link to a shared V8 DLL instead of static linking
--shared-v8-includes=SHARED_V8_INCLUDES
Directory containing V8 header files
--shared-v8-libpath=SHARED_V8_LIBPATH
A directory to search for the shared V8 DLL
--shared-cares Link to a shared C-Ares DLL instead of static linking
--shared-cares-includes=SHARED_CARES_INCLUDES
Directory containing C-Ares header files
--shared-cares-libpath=SHARED_CARES_LIBPATH
A directory to search for the shared C-Ares DLL
--shared-libev Link to a shared libev DLL instead of static linking
--shared-libev-includes=SHARED_LIBEV_INCLUDES
Directory containing libev header files
--shared-libev-libpath=SHARED_LIBEV_LIBPATH
A directory to search for the shared libev DLL
and removes --system.
