Version 0.4.0:
|
||||
Bugfix: Fixed a crash in closesocket.
|
||||
|
||||
Bugfix: Properly handle interface indexes when some are disabled.
|
||||
|
||||
Bugfix: Fixed a deadlock caused by getsockopt.
|
||||
|
||||
Update: Implemented new address cache which stores the full sockaddr structure
|
||||
for each remote socket.
|
||||
|
||||
Cleanup: Integer types for storing 32 and 48-bit addresses and functions for
|
||||
manipulating them.
|
||||
|
||||
Cleanup: Rewrote registry access code.
|
||||
|
||||
Cleanup: Implemented library functions for loading and saving configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
Cleanup: Configuration data written to registry in more sensible format.
|
||||
|
||||
Bugfix: Always use correct DLL names when logging calls in stub DLLs.
|
||||
|
||||
Bugfix: Properly handle interfaces without an IP address set.
|
||||
|
||||
Feature: Support interfaces with multiple assigned IP addresses.
|
||||
|
||||
Update: Periodically reload the interfaces and cache the result so the list can
|
||||
be used in more contexts without a performance hit.
|
||||
|
||||
Cleanup: Check if packets were sent from us by using the source IPX address and
|
||||
local interface list rather than maintaining a list of local IP addresses.
|
||||
|
||||
Feature: Wildcard interface at index 0 to send/recv packets on all interfaces.
|
||||
|
||||
Update: Removed options to disable source IP address filtering and selective
|
||||
broadcasting.
|
||||
|
||||
Update: Removed ipxrouter program, no longer needed.
|
||||
|
||||
Cleanup: Removed out-of-process router support, multiple instances now keep a
|
||||
list of bound addresses in shared memory.
|
||||
|
||||
Cleanup: Update the address cache in the router main loop rather than including
|
||||
the source IP in a header prefixed to the relayed packet.
|
||||
|
||||
Update: Each instance of IPXWrapper binds to a random UDP port for sending and
|
||||
receiving packets. The "normal" port is shared for receiving broadcasts only.
|
||||
|
||||
Bugfix: Check source socket number before relaying to a connected socket.
|
||||
|
||||
Update: Store IPX sockets in a hash table rather than a linked list.
|
||||
|
||||
Cleanup: Removed RETURN and RETURN_WSA macros used by the WinSock code.
|
||||
|
||||
Cleanup: Use some IPXWrapper library code for interface and registry handling
|
||||
in ipxconfig.
|
||||
|
||||
Version 0.3.4:
|
||||
Feature: Added workaround for games that unset SystemRoot in the environment
|
||||
such as Carmageddon II.

-- INTRODUCTION --
|
||||
|
||||
IPXwrapper is a WinSock wrapper which transparently tunnels IPX packets over a
|
||||
chosen UDP port (54792 by default). To use it, simply copy the four included
|
||||
DLL files to the directory containing your legacy program.
|
||||
IPXWrapper is a wrapper library which transparently tunnels IPX packets over IP
|
||||
using UDP. To use it, simply copy the four included DLL files to the directory
|
||||
containing your legacy program.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are running Windows Vista or later and the game uses DirectPlay you may
|
||||
also need to import directplay-win32.reg or directplay-win64.reg as appropriate.
|
||||
|
||||
Using more than one program at a time with IPXWrapper requires running ipxrouter
|
||||
first, this will bind to the UDP port and pass any recieved packets to the
|
||||
correct process.
|
||||
|
||||
Most software binds only to the default interface, if you get no errors but still
|
||||
can't connect to other computers, try running the ipxconfig program and selecting
|
||||
the appropriate default interface.
|
||||
The "wildcard" interface is used by default, this will send and receieve packets
|
||||
on all available network interfaces and may cause problems if you share more
|
||||
than one network with the other computers running IPXWrapper. To use a single
|
||||
interface, run the ipxconfig program and select a different primary interface,
|
||||
change which interfaces are enabled or pick a different interface in the options
|
||||
of your program.
|
||||
|
||||
Software using IPXWrapper can't communicate with software that is using the real
|
||||
IPX protocol and vice-versa.
