I'm not sure if its been mentioned or even if its feesible,
but I hear alot about the environment being slow if the
scripting is not stream-lined.
It is my understanding that multi-threading opens up another
object process for execution. It occured to me that this could
be a God-send if it could be used to harness multiple layers of
mIRC scripting execution. This would defenitely need to be an
advanced scripting tool, but it doesn't seem (to me anyways) to
require a consequential overhaul. Just about everything else has
been done in mIRC, timers, sockets, scripting agents, ddeserver,
etc.
I thought about the security of it, and yeah its true that things
could be compromised, but I don't see how it would be much
different than its current security today, as the scripting
architecture/execution i'd think would remain the same, but the
advantage to multi-threading is the ability for simultaneous
execution of code, and maybe something would have to be
negotiated there, but I dont think the creator(s) of mIRC have
any trouble with creating standards for itself.
If it could be done it is my opinion we'd see a whole new
depth to mIRC scripting and I know this probably isn't a new
idea, but someone tell me
if its not a good one?
