SYSPACK

SysPack is a non standard Scol library : it is not yet include in the default Scol release. It is a beta version without guarantie. I put this library under license : GNU LGPL 2
It provides new functions to differents sections (alphabetic order) :

  • archives : compress and/or uncompress files and/or directories with LZMA, 7zip, ... format

  • benchmark : benchmarks

  • dictionnaries : objects and strings

  • environment : packages, loop-like, functions and variables

  • install & update : softwares installation, patches, Scol updates, plugins

  • keyfile : open, delete keys file, get and set values, ...

  • network : HTTP, FTP, SFTP, SMTP, ... requests

  • others : commons functions

  • PCRE : perl compatible regular expressions

  • standard library : strings, lists, arrays, tuples, encodings, ...

  • system : os informations, files and directories, logs, ...

  • temporary files : create, delete and manage them

However, few parts of the source code are under differents licenses. This is specified in this documentation for each affected function. In this case, you must agree their terms to use it and inform the user if any. If you don't agree with one or several licences, you can not use this library OR you can rebuild the library from its source code after setting the flags (see "_compilation.h" header file). In this last case, these affected functions will always return 'nil'.
If the documentation doesn't give explicit license, its license is GNU LGPL v2

You can test the supported licenses by your library : see syspackSupportedVersion.

Syspack is under development. New functions will be added, old functions can be updated (the backward compatibility will be assured).
