gracefully with PoCo-IRC
SYNOPSIS
Shutting down an IRC bot can be quick and messy, or slow and graceful.
DESCRIPTION
There are two ways you can shut down an IRC bot/client. The quick and
dirty way is rather simple:
exit;
It exits the program, shutting down the socket, and everybody online
sees yet another "Connection reset by peer" or "Remote end closed the
socket" or something.
As of version 6.50, all you need to do in order to shut down gracefully
is to send a "shutdown" event to the IRC component. It will make sure
your quit message (if any) gets delivered, and will forcibly disconnect
if there are any problems (faulty server or network issues). After
doing this, it will unregister all sessions and clean up after itself.
If you want to do something more elaborate on your own, take a look at
the following documentation: logged in, "connected", "quit",
"disconnect", and "unregister".
