RuntimeException is very generic and might be thrown for other reasons apart from web request failures.
This is backwards compatible because InternetException is a descendent of RuntimeException. Additionally, getURL() and postURL() have intentionally been left untouched for backwards compatibility's sake.
* Added a new PermissionManager, remove ridiculous cyclic dependencies of Permissions on Server
Aside from all the other ridiculous design problems with the permission system, the biggest problems are its API. This is, once again, a result of poor API design copied from Bukkit.
This pull request removes all permission-related functionality from `PluginManager` and moves it to the `pocketmine\permission\PermissionManager` class.
As can be observed from the removed code in the diff, the permissions system was previously entirely dependent on the Server, because it needed to get the PluginManager for registering permissions. This is utterly ridiculous. This refactor isolates _most_ permission-related functionality within the `permission` namespace.
As mentioned above, this stupid API is a direct result of copying from Bukkit. If you look at the API documentation for Bukkit for `PluginManager` you will see that the methods I'm deprecating here are also in there.
## Changes
- Added a new `PermissionManager` class. This can be accessed via its singleton `getInstance()` static method.
- Deprecated the following `PluginManager` methods - these will be removed no later than 4.0.0:
- `getPermission()`
- `addPermission()`
- `removePermission()`
- `getDefaultPermissions()`
- `recalculatePermissionDefaults()`
- `subscribeToPermission()`
- `unsubscribeFromPermission()`
- `getPermissionSubscriptions()`
- `subscribeToDefaultPerms()`
- `unsubscribeFromDefaultPerms()`
- `getDefaultPermSubscriptions()`
- `getPermissions()`
- Added `Internet::getIP()`, `Internet::getURL()`, `Internet::postURL()`, and `Internet::simpleCurl()`.
- Deprecated the corresponding functions in `Utils`. Updating to the new functions is as simple as replacing `Utils` with `Internet`, since this doesn't break backwards compatibility.
The deprecations should be catered for by plugin developers. These deprecated redirects will be removed no later than 4.0.0.
This reverts commit 0081e30a89.
The logic introduced by this commit is correct in MC JAVA 1.9+. Unfortunately, nobody likes 1.9+ for combat.
Some testing in MCPE vanilla made it apparent that this logic isn't correct for MCPE. The old logic is correct for pre-1.9 knockback.
it's possible to walk off a tower while flying without moving vertically, and this code previously wouldn't detect that, leaving a gaping hole in the anti-cheat.
