2007-01-03- Matt Witherspoon fixed the flaw which made libcurl 7.16.0 always storeDaniel Stenberg
downloaded data in two buffers, just to be able to deal with a special HTTP pipelining case. That is now only activated for pipelined transfers. In Matt's case, it showed as a considerable performance difference,
2007-01-02- Victor Snezhko helped us fix bug report #1603712Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1603712) (known bug #36) --limit-rate (CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE and CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE) are broken on Windows (since 7.16.0, but that's when they were introduced as previous to that the limiting logic was made in the application only and not in the library). It was actually also broken on select()-based systems (as apposed to poll()) but we haven't had any such reports. We now use select(), Sleep() or delay() properly to sleep a while without waiting for anything input or output when the rate limiting is activated with the easy interface.
2007-01-02- Modified libcurl.pc.in to use Libs.private for the libs libcurl itself needsDaniel Stenberg
to get built static. It has been mentioned before and was again brought to our attention by Nathanael Nerode who filed debian bug report #405226 (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=405226).

2006-12-22- Robert Foreman provided a prime example snippet showing how libcurl wouldDaniel Stenberg
get confused and not acknowledge the 'no_proxy' variable properly once it had used the proxy and you re-used the same easy handle. I made sure the proxy name is properly stored in the connect struct rather than the sessionhandle/easy struct.

2006-12-22- David McCreedy fixed a bad call to getsockname() that wrongly used a size_tDaniel Stenberg
variable to point to when it should be a socklen_t.

'curl [URL]' with a URL without a protocol prefix, curl would not send a correct request as it failed to add the protocol prefix.

2006-12-21Robson Braga Araujo reported bug #1618359Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1618359) and subsequently provided a patch for it: when downloading 2 zero byte files in a row, curl 7.16.0 enters an infinite loop, while curl 7.16.1-20061218 does one additional unnecessary request. Fix: During the "Major overhaul introducing http pipelining support and shared connection cache within the multi handle." change, headerbytecount was moved to live in the Curl_transfer_keeper structure. But that structure is reset in the Transfer method, losing the information that we had about the header size. This patch moves it back to the connectdata struct.

2006-12-1937. Having more than one connection to the same host when doing NTLMDaniel Stenberg
authentication (with performs multiple "passes" and authenticates a connection rather than a HTTP request), and particularly when using the multi interface, there's a risk that libcurl will re-use a wrong connection when doing the different passes in the NTLM negotiation and thus fail to negotiate (in seemingly mysterious ways). 36. --limit-rate (CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE and CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE) are broken on Windows (since 7.16.0, but that's when they were introduced as previous to that the limiting logic was made in the application only and not in the library). This problem is easily repeated and it takes a Windows person to fire up his/hers debugger in order to fix. http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1603712

2006-12-11Alexey Simak found out that when doing FTP with the multi interface andDaniel Stenberg
something went wrong like it got a bad response code back from the server, libcurl would leak memory. Added test case 538 to verify the fix. I also noted that the connection would get cached in that case, which doesn't make sense since it cannot be re-use when the authentication has failed. I fixed that issue too at the same time, and also that the path would be "remembered" in vain for cases where the connection was about to get closed.

2006-12-06clarify --limit-rate somewhat: it might send away/receive chunks of date inDaniel Stenberg
temporarily higher speeds than requested, but the given limiting is considered "over time" and is an average
2006-12-06Sebastien Willemijns reported bug #1603712Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1603712) which is about connections getting cut off prematurely when --limit-rate is used. While I found no such problems in my tests nor in my reading of the code, I found that the --limit-rate code was severly flawed (since it was moved into the lib, since 7.15.5) when used with the easy interface and it didn't work as documented so I reworked it somewhat and now it works for my tests.
2006-12-05Stefan Krause pointed out a compiler warning with a picky MSCV compiler whenDaniel Stenberg
passing a curl_off_t argument to the Curl_read_rewind() function which takes an size_t argument. Curl_read_rewind() also had debug code left in it and it was put in a different source file with no good reason when only used from one single spot.

2006-12-05Sh Diao reported that CURLOPT_CLOSEPOLICY doesn't work, and indeed, there isDaniel Stenberg
no code present in the library that receives the option. Since it was not possible to use, we know that no current users exist and thus we simply removed it from the docs and made the code always use the default path of the code.
2006-12-05Jared Lundell filed bug report #1604956Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1604956) which identified setting CURLOPT_MAXCONNECTS to zero caused libcurl to SIGSEGV. Starting now, libcurl will always internally use no less than 1 entry in the connection cache.

2006-12-05Martin Skinner brought back bug report #1230118 to haunt us once again.Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1230118) curl_getdate() did not work properly for all input dates on Windows. It was mostly seen on some TZ time zones using DST. Luckily, Martin also provided a fix.
2006-12-05Alexey Simak filed bug report #1600447Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1600447) in which he noted that active FTP connections don't work with the multi interface. The problem is here that the multi interface state machine has a state during which it can wait for the data connection to connect, but the active connection is not done in the same step in the sequence as the passive one is so it doesn't quite work for active. The active FTP code still use a blocking function to allow the remote server to connect. The fix (work-around is a better word) for this problem is to set the boolean prematurely that the data connection is completed, so that the "wait for connect" phase ends at once.
2006-12-05Matt Witherspoon fixed a problem case when the CPU load went to 100% when aDaniel Stenberg
HTTP upload was disconnected: "What appears to be happening is that my system (Linux 2.6.17 and 2.6.13) is setting *only* POLLHUP on poll() when the conditions in my previous mail occur. As you can see, select.c:Curl_select() does not check for POLLHUP. So basically what was happening, is poll() was returning immediately (with POLLHUP set), but when Curl_select() looked at the bits, neither POLLERR or POLLOUT was set. This still caused Curl_readwrite() to be called, which quickly returned. Then the transfer() loop kept continuing at full speed forever."
