Now, if the BOOL argument value is FALSE, then the .ini file is opened read-only (and thus only read permissions are needed, resolving issue #455).

If the BOOL argument value is TRUE, create-if-not-exist is implied. There are no use cases where we would want to open an .ini file for writing only if it already existed.

Otherwise, socket stuff (e.g. socklen_t) isn't defined and sockwrap.h
included by ini_file.h causes build error.

Fall-back to uname() if this fails.

There shouldn't be multiple keys with the same name in a section, but if there
were, a call to iniRemoveKey() would would only remove the *first* key with
that name. So loop until all the keys with the matching name are removed and
return true only if they were all successfully removed from the specified
section.

This resolved an observed issue with sbbsctrl-windows displaying an error
dialog "Failure writing initialization file: path/to/sbbs.ini" when there
were multiple *Sound keys in a section and the first such key value matched
that same key in the [Global] section: in this case, we try to remove the
duplicate key/value from the non-global section, but that removal was
considered a failure (iniKeyExists returned TRUE) because we only removed
the *first* key with that name (assuming there would be only one). So we
would abort the save entirely and display the error dialog.

Fixes build in IDE again. Was getting unresolved log-related function
errors (from nopen.obj) during link.

Loading empty main.ini file results in no (0) command shells be configured, but this scenario needs to be supported if we are to be able to run upgrade_to_v320.js via jsexec when there is no ctrl/main.ini file.

Only the terminal server cares about command shells, so just move the checking and critical-error reporting there.

was always returning 0 (oops), so user.tab searches for specific string values
(usually user's real name) did not work.

max_files, max_age, seq_dev

To match the existing JS file_area...dir_list properties.

These were mismatched between cnfdefs.js and scfg*.c already, so lets
fix but make more consistent with the JS object model.

So extended internal codes (e.g. for msg and file areas) now have a max length
of 32 chars (16 prefix, 16 suffix) and most other internal codes are now
limited to 16 chars (instead of 8).

My hub (1:218/700) is currently having what appears to be a TCP/IP
connectivity issue that was resulting in infinite "Send failure"
log messages and "We got an M_EOB, but there are still N files pending M_GOT"
log messages.

I first added better socket-send failure detection (checking return value of
sendCmd() and sendData() where needed) and then noticed that failure to send
a file was not detected (the sending.file.position is advanced even if
sendData() fails), so now handling that condition too.

Also added more diagnostics around socket-send failures (is socket writable?)
in this particular case, the socket is not writable and socket-send is
returning 0.

This is pretty much a direct port using the *almost* exact same
form definition file, except:
1. Uses sbbs.dll for common functions
2. Read config file (main.ini), so now needs SBBSCTRL env var set
3. Some minor improvements, like hour-glass cursor while searching
   and re-reading/loading/displaying the user data when any changes
   are saved.
4. Supports the v3.20 user base (obviously)
5. Flags nodes in-use by modified users with the UDAT node flag

Some old bugs (e.g. the user credits were read/written from the old/wrong
byte-offset) are no longer relevant.

This should be used elsewhere too.

putuserdatetime() needed to take a time32_t argument to be compatible with
Borland C++ Builder. Eventually, when we stop using that tool, we can move
to just 64-bit time_t's everywhere.

parseuserdat() now accepts and optional array of field pointers to populate
for each user field (for use with the new UserEditor.exe).

exempt->exemptions, rest->restrictions, cdt->credits

As reported by Max (WESTLINE)

This would crash/segfault when the .ini files didn't exist
