@@ -8,6 +8,81 @@ Version 7.3 +Daniel (25 September 2000) +- Erdmut Pfeifer informed us that curl didn't build with OpenSSL 0.9.6 and + showed us what needed to get patched in order to make it build properly + again. + +- Dirk Kruschewski found a bug in the cookie parser. I made an alternative + approach to the solution Dirk himself suggested. The bug made a cookie + header that didn't end with a trailing semicolon to not get parsed. + +- I've marked -c and -t deprecated now. If you use any of them, curl will tell + you to use "-C -" or "-T -" instead. I don't think occupying two letters for + nearly identical functions is good use. Also, -T - kind of follows the curl + tradition of using - for stdin where a file name is expected. + +Daniel (23 September 2000) +- Martin Hedenfalk provided the patch that finally made the krb4 ftp upload + work! + +Daniel (21 September 2000) +- The kerberos code is not quite thread-safe yet. There are a few more globals + that need to be take care of. Let's get the upload working first! + +Daniel (20 September 2000) +- Richard Prescott solved another name lookup buffer size problem. I took this + opportunity to rewrite the GetHost() function. With these large buffer + sizes, I think keeping them as local arrays quickly turn ugly. I know use + malloc() to get the buffer memory. Thanks to this, I now can realloc() to a + large buffer in case of demand (errno == ERANGE) in case a solution like + that would become necessary. I still want to avoid that kind of nastiness. + +- Tried to compile and run curl on Linux for alpha and FreeBSD for alpha. Went + as smooth as it could. + +- Added a docs/examples directory with two tiny example sources that show how + to use libcurl. I hope users will supply me with more useful examples + further on. + +- Applied a patch by Jörn Hartroth to no longer use the word 'inteface' in the + config struct in the src/main.c file since certain compilers have that word + "reservered". I figure that is some kind of C++ decease. + +- Updated the curl.1 man page with --interface and --krb4. + +- Modified the base64Encode() function to work like the kerberos one, so that + I could remove the use of that. There is no need for *two* base64 encoding + functions! ;-) + +Version 7.3pre5 + +Daniel (19 September 2000) +- The kerberos4-layer source code that is much "influenced" by the original + krb4 source code, through yafc into curl, was using quite a lot of global + variables. libcurl can't work properly with globals like that why I had to + clean up almost every function in the new security.c to make them use + connection specific variables instead of the globals. I just hope I didn't + destroy anything now... :-) configure updated, version string now reflects + krb4 built-in. It almost works now. Only uploads are still being naughty. + +Version 7.3pre3 + +Daniel (18 September 2000) +- Martin Hedenfalk supplied a major patch that introduces krb4-ftp support to + curl. Martin is the primary author of the ftp client named yafc and he did + not hesitate to help us implement this when I asked him. Many and sincere + thanks to a splendid effort. It didn't even take many hours! + +- Stephen Kick supplied a big patch that introduces the --interface flag to + the curl tool and CURLOPT_INTERFACE for libcurl. It allows you to specify an + outgoing interface to use for your request. This may not work on all + platforms. This needs testing. + +- Richard Prescott noticed that curl on Tru64 unix could core dumped if the + name didn't resolve properly. This was due to the GetHost() function not + returning an error even though it failed on some platforms! + Daniel (15 September 2000) - Updated all sorts of documents in regards to the new proxytunnel support. |
