This project is for the JAVA version of DFBnc (Read below for delphi/pascal)

History

DFBnc was originally an IRC Bouncer written in Delphi. It compiled on Linux (FreePascal) and windows (using both Delphi and FreePascal).

DFBNC Was originally licensed under the ZLIB License, and this version can be found here.

Now

Due to issues with the code and random other things, the decision was taken to completely rewrite DFBnc (for the 2nd time), and rather than relying on external librarys (lsocket and wsocket) and having to test on 3 compilers and work around the various differences in compilers/platforms by hand it was decided to be rewriten in Java.

The Older delphi version is available at the above link due to the fact that the license of Wsocket is not compatible with MIT, and that lsocket can not be used on google code (due to being ZLIB not MIT)

Compatability

Older config files (from the delphi version) will be converted automatically by the java version, however the delphi version will NOT be able to use configs from the java version.

External Files

DFBnc makes use of files from other projects, which are automatically downloaded when using svn. The projects used are: # DMDirc (irc parser) # DF Libs (cliparser and logger)

All 3 of the used parts are coded by me, but are part of other projects I am a developer for.
