2008-05-03- Jean-Francois Bertrand reported a libcurl crash with CURLOPT_TCP_NODELAYDaniel Stenberg
since libcurl used getprotobyname() and that isn't thread-safe. We now switched to use IPPROTO_TCP unconditionally, but perhaps the proper fix is to detect the thread-safe version of the function and use that. http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-05/0011.html
2008-05-01- Bart Whiteley provided a patch that made libcurl work properly when an appDaniel Stenberg
uses the CURLOPT_OPENSOCKETFUNCTION callback to create a unix domain socket to a http server.
2008-04-30- To make it easier for applications that want lots of magic stuff done onDaniel Stenberg
redirections and thus cannot use CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION easily, we now introduce the new CURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL option that lets applications extract the URL libcurl would've redirected to if it had been told to. This then enables the application to continue to that URL as it thinks is suitable, without having to re-implement the magic of creating the new URL from the Location: header etc. Test 1029 verifies it.

2008-04-28- Norbert Frese filed bug report #1951588: "Problem with curlftpfs andDaniel Stenberg
libcurl" (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1951588) which seems to be an identical report to what Denis Golovan reported in http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-02/0108.html The FTP code didn't reset the user/password pointers properly even though there might've been a new struct/cconnection getting used.

2008-04-14allow disabling the typechecker by defining CURL_DISABLE_TYPECHECK, asMichal Marek
discussed in http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-04/0291.html
2008-04-14- Stefan Krause reported a case where the OpenSSL handshake phase wasn'tDaniel Stenberg
properly acknowledging the timeout values, like if you pulled the network plug in the midst of it.
2008-04-14- Andre Guibert de Bruet fixed a second case of not checking the malloc()Daniel Stenberg
return code in the Negotiate code.
2008-04-14- Sandor Feldi reported bug #1942022Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1942022) pointing out a mistake in the lib/Makefile.vc[68] makefiles' release-ssl-dll target.
2008-04-14- Brock Noland reported that curl behaved differently depending on which orderDaniel Stenberg
you used -i and -I.
2008-04-12- Andre Guibert de Bruet found and fixed a case where malloc() was called butDaniel Stenberg
was not checked for a NULL return, in the Negotiate code.
2008-04-10Added test case 1025 to test a command-line cookie with Location: followingDan Fandrich
2008-04-10Added test case 1024 to test a scenario similar to the one reportedDan Fandrich
by Ben Combee where libcurl would send the wrong cookie to a redirected server. libcurl was doing the right thing in this test case.
2008-04-07- Fix the MIT / Heimdal check for good:Michal Marek
Define HAVE_GSSMIT if <gssapi/{gssapi.h,gssapi_generic.h,gssapi_krb5.h}> are available, otherwise define HAVE_GSSHEIMDAL if <gssapi.h> is available. Only define GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE to gss_nt_service_name if GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE isn't declared by the gssapi headers. This should avoid breakage in case we wrongly recognize Heimdal as MIT again.
2008-04-05- Alexey Simak fixed curl_easy_reset() to reset the max redirect limit properlyDaniel Stenberg
2008-04-05- Based on the Debian bug report #474224 that complained about the FTP errorDaniel Stenberg
message when libcurl doesn't get a 220 back immediately on connect, I now changed it to be more specific on what the problem is. Also worth noticing: while the bug report contains an example where the response is: 421 There are too many connected users, please try again later we cannot assume that the error message will always be this readable nor that it fits within a particular boundary etc.
2008-04-04Added test627 to test SFTP with CURLOPT_NOBODYDan Fandrich
2008-04-03- Setting CURLOPT_NOBODY to FALSE will now switch the HTTP request method toDaniel Stenberg
GET simply because previously when you set CURLOPT_NOBODY to TRUE first and then FALSE you'd end up in a broken state where a HTTP request would do a HEAD by still act a lot like for a GET and hang waiting for the content etc.
2008-04-03Scott Barrett added support for CURLOPT_NOBODY over SFTPDaniel Stenberg
2008-04-03Made sure that curl_global_init is called in all the multithreadedDan Fandrich
example programs.
2008-03-31Removed the generated ca-bundle.h file. The verbatim value of $ca andMichal Marek
$capath is known to configure, so it can be defined in config.h instead.
2008-03-31- Added CURLFORM_STREAM as a supported option to curl_formadd() to allow anDaniel Stenberg
application to provide data for a multipart with the read callback. Note that the size needs to be provided with CURLFORM_CONTENTSLENGTH when the stream option is used. This feature is verified by the new test case 554. This feature was sponsored by Xponaut.
2008-03-31Changed the makefile so the doc/examples/ programs are never built in aDan Fandrich
normal build/install (only with the 'make check' target), so that a build failure in the examples isn't fatal.
2008-03-307.18.1Daniel Stenberg
2008-03-27- Stephen Collyer pointed out that configure --with-libssh2 without a givenDaniel Stenberg
path didn't work properly but now it does!
2008-03-27- As found out and reported by Dan Petitt, libcurl didn't show progress/callDaniel Stenberg
the progress callback for the first (potentially huge) piece of body data sent together with the POST request headers in the initial send().
2008-03-25- Made setting the CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION option return a failure in caseDaniel Stenberg
libcurl wasn't built to use OpenSSL as that is a prerequisite for this option to function!
2008-03-22- Fixed the problem with doing a zero byte SCP transfer, verified with testDaniel Stenberg
case 617 (which was added by Daniel Fandrich 5 Mar 2008).
2008-03-20Fixed a problem where curl-config --protocols could erroneously show LDAPSDan Fandrich
support when curl didn't even have regular LDAP support. It looks like this could happen when the --enable-ldaps configure switch is given but configure couldn't find the LDAP headers or libraries.
2008-03-20- Added --with-ca-path=DIRECTORY configure option to use an openSSL CApath byMichal Marek
default instead of a ca bundle. The configure script will also look for a ca path if no ca bundle is found and no option given. - Fixed detection of previously installed curl-ca-bundle.crt
2008-03-18Fixed an infinite loop when given an invalid SFTP quote command.Dan Fandrich
2008-03-18Added test 626 to reproduce an infinite loop when given an invalidDan Fandrich
SFTP quote command reported by Vincent Le Normand, but left it disabled.
2008-03-18- Added curl_easy_getinfo typechecker.Michal Marek
- Added macros for curl_share_setopt and curl_multi_setopt to check at least the correct number of arguments.
2008-03-13Added tests 622-625 to test SFTP/SCP uploads. Test 625 was an attempt toDan Fandrich
reproduce the --ftp-create-dirs problem reported by Brian Ulm, but that seems to need a call curl_easy_reset() which this test case doesn't do.
2008-03-13- Brian Ulm figured out that if you did an SFTP upload withDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS to create a directory, and then re-used the handle and uploaded another file to another directory that needed to be created, the second upload would fail. Another case of a state variable that wasn't properly reset between requests. - I rewrote the 100-continue code to use a single state variable instead of the previous two ones. I think it made the logic somewhat clearer.
2008-03-11- Dmitry Popov filed bug report #1911069Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1911069) that identified a race condition in the name resolver code when the DNS cache is shared between multiple easy handles, each running in simultaneous threads that could cause crashes.
2008-03-11- Added a macro for curl_easy_setopt() that accepts three arguments and simplyDaniel Stenberg
does nothing with them, just to make sure libcurl users always use three arguments to this function. Due to its use of ... for the third argument, it is otherwise hard to detect abuse.
2008-03-11- Added a type checking macro for curl_easy_setopt(), needs gcc-4.3 and onlyMichal Marek
works in C mode atm (http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-02/0267.html , http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-02/0292.html )
2008-03-10Added tests 618-621 to test SFTP/SCP transfers of more than one fileDan Fandrich
(test 620 tests the just-fixed problem reported by Brian Ulm).
2008-03-09- Brian Ulm reported a crash when doing a second SFTP transfer on a re-usedDaniel Stenberg
easy handle if curl_easy_reset() was used between them. I fixed it and Brian verified that it cured his problem. - Brian Ulm reported that if you first tried to download a non-existing SFTP file and then fetched an existing one and re-used the handle, libcurl would still report the second one as non-existing as well! I fixed it abd Brian verified that it cured his problem.
2008-03-06Fix the gssapi configure check to detect newer MIT Kerberos (patch byMichal Marek
Michael Calmer)
2008-03-06Regression fix:Yang Tse
select/poll calls will only be retried upon EINTR failures as it previously was in lib/select.c revision 1.29 In this way Curl_socket_ready() and Curl_poll() will again fail on any select/poll errors different than EINTR.
2008-03-06Added tests 616 and 617 to see how SFTP and SCP cope with zero-lengthDan Fandrich
files, as questioned by Mike Protts. SFTP does for me but SCP doesn't so test 617 is disabled for now.
2008-03-04Mike Protts brought a patch that makes resumed transfers work with SFTP.Daniel Stenberg
