stdnse.print_debug accepts a format string and arguments, making
string.format redundant in calls of this form:
stdnse.print_debug(1, string.format("%s: error", SCRIPT_NAME))
stdnse.print_debug(("length %d"):format(#tab))
These can be rewritten as:
stdnse.print_debug(1, "%s: error", SCRIPT_NAME)
stdnse.print_debug("length %d", #tab)
* replace require function calls with stndse.silent_require
* fixed a bug in nse_main that would fail creating scripts.db when a script
fails to load
* reworked some code to provide limited functionality even though SSL is not
present
socket:connect(host.ip, port.number)
socket:connect(host.ip, port.number, port.protocol)
to this:
socket:connect(host, port)
connect can take host and port tables now, and the default protocol is
taken from the port table if possible.
top of the first comment, so the entire description got stuffed into the
@author field. I also discovered a limitation in the NSEDoc parser: the
first non-empty line following the first --- comment must be the
"module" call, or else the block isn't recognized as belonging to a
module. This was preventing @args from appearing in certain libraries.
Djalal Harouni told me about this.
