This reverts commit 3bb450244f.
PhpStorm you lying piece of shit... you only showed me the usages in Level!
This change should be revised and redone later.
chunkloader ID is completely unnecessary extra complication. spl_object_hash() would be fine for this as well, but a number is better. Since it's unique for the object lifetime (and the Level keeps a ref to loaders) this system should work just fine.
This is intended to break API in order to jerk the rug out from underneath plugin developers who have been misusing this without noticing the side effects.
This is now self-maintaining and doesn't rely on the async pool to wipe its ass on task completion. Instead, the garbage collector will cause thread-local data to be automatically released when the async task is garbage-collected on the main thread.
Use of this by plugins will produce a lot of undefined behaviour, such as event handlers not being unregistered, scheduled tasks not being removed, and registered permissions causing memory leaks.
This check is completely unnecessary since handlers get unregistered when a plugin is disabled. Additionally, this is an extremely hot path and this change produces a modest 5% performance improvement to event calls.
this is cleaner than leaving the player hanging for 5 seconds (which they'll often timeout from anyway). Banning the IP without kicking the player can often look like "lag" and end up getting brushed off as a performance issue.
this dates back to the days where PM used to kill threads to stop them. Today we're more civilized and ask it to stop nicely, so this isn't necessary anymore.
This has the triple bonus effect of a) making a lot of code easier to read, b) reducing Server::getInstance() usages, and c) removing a whole bunch of Server dependencies.
The network and block namespaces are untouched by this commit due to potential for merge conflicts. These should be dealt with separately on master.
This is dependent on the changes made in b1e0f82cbf. This now makes it possible to call events without fetching a Server reference, allowing to eliminate a vast array of Server dependencies.
The basic principle here is "if you're not expecting it, don't catch it".
Event handlers are **never** supposed to throw exceptions. If they do throw exceptions, it's usually going to one of two things;
1. Broken code producing an error
2. Code triggering (and not catching) a runtime error
Both 1) and 2) boil down to defective code on the part of the event handler, and thus should not be caught by the caller, but instead allowed to crash the server and produce a crashdump.
It's also undesirable to catch unexpected errors here for a few other reasons
- It leaves the owner of the event handler in an unknown, potentially unstable state
- It allows broken code to cause event handlers to spam the logger in events that happen frequently (for example movement handlers)
- It allows the process to continue down a train of further undefined behaviour, which may lead to more errors or ultimately a crash, so it makes no sense to hold off the inevitable.
This has a few advantages that are not merely inverted disadvantages:
- Crash dumps will now be created and automatically submitted for defective event handlers, allowing quicker issue location, debugging and fixing in plugins without manual user interaction
- Event calling now isn't dependent on Server to work.
