2009-12-30VMS build system enhancements by Steven M. Schweda and Craig A. BerryYang Tse
2009-12-25add pointer to the bug reportDaniel Stenberg
2009-12-25- Renato Botelho and Peter Pentchev brought a patch that makes the libcurlDaniel Stenberg
headers work correctly even on FreeBSD systems before v8.
2009-12-17- David Byron fixed Curl_ossl_cleanup to actually call ENGINE_cleanup whenDaniel Stenberg
available.
2009-12-16Follow-up fix for the proxy fix I did for Jon Nelson's bug. It turned out IDaniel Stenberg
was a bit too quick and broke test case 1101 with that change. The order of some of the setups is sensitive. I now changed it slightly again.
2009-12-14- Jon Nelson found a regression that turned out to be a flaw in how libcurlDaniel Stenberg
detects and uses proxies based on the environment variables. If the proxy was given as an explicit option it worked, but due to the setup order mistake proxies would not be used fine for a few protocols when picked up from '[protocol]_proxy'. Obviously this broke after 7.19.4. I now also added test case 1106 that verifies this functionality. (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2913886)
2009-12-12IMAP, POP3 and SMTP supportDaniel Stenberg
2009-12-10- Siegfried Gyuricsko found out that the curl manual said --retry would retryDaniel Stenberg
on FTP errors in the transient 5xx range. Transient FTP errors are in the 4xx range. The code itself only tried on 5xx errors that occured _at login_. Now the retry code retries on all FTP transfer failures that ended with a 4xx response. (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2911279)
2009-12-10argh, use the correct bug idDaniel Stenberg
2009-12-10- Constantine Sapuntzakis figured out a case which would lead to libcurlDaniel Stenberg
accessing alredy freed memory and thus crash when using HTTPS (with OpenSSL), multi interface and the CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION and a certain order of cleaning things up. I fixed it. (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2891591)
2009-12-07- Martin Storsjo made libcurl use the Expect: 100-continue header for postsDaniel Stenberg
with unknown size. Previously it was only used for posts with a known size larger than 1024 bytes.
2009-12-01- If the Expect: 100-continue header has been set by the application throughDaniel Stenberg
curl_easy_setopt with CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, the library should set data->state.expect100header accordingly - the current code (in 7.19.7 at least) doesn't handle this properly. Martin Storsjo provided the fix!
2009-11-28- Added Diffie-Hellman parameters to several test harness certificate files inYang Tse
PEM format. Required by several stunnel versions used by our test harness.
2009-11-27- Markus Koetter provided a polished and updated version of Chad Monroe's TFTPDaniel Stenberg
rework patch that now integrates TFTP properly into libcurl so that it can be used non-blocking with the multi interface and more. BLKSIZE also works. The --tftp-blksize option was added to allow setting the TFTP BLKSIZE from the command line.
2009-11-26 - Extended and fixed the change I did on Dec 11 for the the progressDaniel Stenberg
meter/callback during FTP command/response sequences. It turned out it was really lame before and now the progress meter SHOULD get called at least once per second.
2009-11-23- David Byron modified Makefile.dist vc8 and vc9 targets in order to allowYang Tse
finer granularity control when generating src and lib makefiles.
2009-11-23- Bjorn Augustsson reported a bug which made curl not report any problems evenDaniel Stenberg
though it failed to write a very small download to disk (done in a single fwrite call). It turned out to be because fwrite() returned success, but there was insufficient error-checking for the fclose() call which tricked curl to believe things were fine.
2009-11-20- Constantine Sapuntzakis identified a write after close, as the sockets wereDaniel Stenberg
closed by libcurl before the SSL lib were shutdown and they may write to its socket. Detected to at least happen with OpenSSL builds.
2009-11-20- Jad Chamcham pointed out a bug with connection re-use. If a connection hadDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL enabled over a proxy, a subsequent request using the same proxy with the tunnel option disabled would still wrongly re-use that previous connection and the outcome would only be badness.
2009-11-17- Constantine Sapuntzakis provided another fix for the DNS cache that couldDaniel Stenberg
end up with entries that wouldn't time-out: 1. Set up a first web server that redirects (307) to a http://server:port that's down 2. Have curl connect to the first web server using curl multi After the curl_easy_cleanup call, there will be curl dns entries hanging around with in_use != 0. (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2891591)
2009-11-17- Marc Kleine-Budde fixed: curl saved the LDFLAGS set during configure intoDaniel Stenberg
its pkg-config file. So -Wl stuff ended up in the .pc file, which is really bad, and breaks if there are multiple -Wl in our LDFLAGS (which are in PTXdist). bug #2893592 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2893592)
2009-11-15- David Byron improved the configure script to use pkg-config to find OpenSSLKamil Dudka
(and in particular the list of required libraries) even if a path is given as argument to --with-ssl
2009-11-14Added '--configure' option to curl-config to display original configure ↵Claes Jakobsson
arguments when curl was built
2009-11-14- Claes Jakobsson restored the configure functionality to detect NSS whenDaniel Stenberg
--with-nss is set but not "yes". I think we can still improve that to check for pkg-config in that path etc, but at least this patch brings back the same functionality we had before.
2009-11-14- Camille Moncelier added support for the file type SSL_FILETYPE_ENGINE forDaniel Stenberg
the client certificate. It also disable the key name test as some engines can select a private key/cert automatically (When there is only one key and/or certificate on the hardware device used by the engine)
2009-11-14- Constantine Sapuntzakis provided the fix that ensures that an SSL connectionYang Tse
won't be reused unless protection level for peer and host verification match.
2009-11-12- libcurl-NSS now tries to reconnect with TLS disabled in case it detectsKamil Dudka
a broken TLS server. However it does not happen if SSL version is selected manually. The approach was originally taken from PSM. Kaspar Brand helped me to complete the patch. Original bug reports: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/525496 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/527771
2009-11-12- Kevin Baughman provided a fix preventing libcurl-NSS from crash on doublyKamil Dudka
closed NSPR descriptor. The issue was hard to find, reported several times before and always closed unresolved. More info at the RH bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/534176
2009-11-11- Marco Maggi reported that compilation failed when configured --with-gssapiYang Tse
and GNU GSS installed due to a missing mutual exclusion of header files in the Kerberos 5 code path. He also verified that my patch worked for him.
2009-11-11- Constantine Sapuntzakis posted bug #2891595Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2891595) which identified how an entry in the DNS cache would linger too long if the request that added it was in use that long. He also provided the patch that now makes libcurl capable of still doing a request while the DNS hash entry may get timed out.
2009-11-11- Christian Schmitz noticed that the progress meter/callback was not properlyDaniel Stenberg
used during the FTP connection phase (after the actual TCP connect), while it of course should be. I also made the speed check get called correctly so that really slow servers will trigger that properly too.
2009-11-05- Dropped misleading timeouts in libcurl-NSS and made sure the SSL socket worksKamil Dudka
in non-blocking mode.
2009-11-05I removed leading 'curl' path on the 'curlbuild.h' include statement inYang Tse
curl.h, adjusting auto-makefiles include path, to enhance portability to OS's without an orthogonal directory tree structure such as OS/400.
2009-11-04- I fixed several problems with the transfer progress meter. It showed theDaniel Stenberg
wrong percentage for small files, most notable for <1000 bytes and could easily end up showing more than 100% at the end. It also didn't show any percentage, transfer size or estimated transfer times when transferring less than 100 bytes.
2009-11-04release coming upDaniel Stenberg
2009-11-02- As reported independent by both Stan van de Burgt and Didier Brisebourg,Daniel Stenberg
CURLINFO_SIZE_DOWNLOAD (the -w variable size_download) didn't work when getting data from ldap!
2009-10-31- Gabriel Kuri reported a problem with CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_DOWNLOAD if theDaniel Stenberg
download was 0 bytes, as libcurl would then return the size as unknown (-1) and not 0. I wrote a fix and test case 566 to verify it.
2009-10-30- Liza Alenchery mentioned a problem with re-used SCP connection when a badDaniel Stenberg
auth is used, as it caused a crash. I failed to repeat the issue, but still made a change that now forces the TCP connection used for a freed SCP session to get closed and not be re-used.
2009-10-30- "Tom" posted a bug report that mentioned how libcurl did wrong when doing aDaniel Stenberg
POST using a read callback, with Digest authentication and "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" enforced. I would then cause the first request to be wrongly sent and then basically hang until the server closed the connection. I fixed the problem and added test case 565 to verify it.
2009-10-25- Dima Barsky made the curl cookie parser accept cookies even with blank orDaniel Stenberg
unparsable expiry dates and then treat them as session cookies - previously libcurl would reject cookies with a date format it couldn't parse. Research shows that the major browser treat such cookies as session cookies. I modified test 8 and 31 to verify this.
2009-10-21- Attempt to use pkg-config for finding out libssh2 installation detailsDaniel Stenberg
during configure.
2009-10-21s/koresh/Johan van Selst/Daniel Stenberg
2009-10-21- A patch in bug report #2883177 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2883177)Daniel Stenberg
by user 'koresh' introduced the --crlfile option to curl, which makes curl tell libcurl about a file with CRL (certificate revocation list) data to read.
2009-10-18- Ray Dassen provided a patch in Debian's bug tracker (bug number #551461)Daniel Stenberg
that now makes curl_getdate(3) actually handles RFC 822 formatted dates that use the "single letter military timezones". http://www.rfc-ref.org/RFC-TEXTS/822/chapter5.html has the details.
2009-10-18- Fixed memory leak in the SCP/SFTP code as it never freed the knownhostsDaniel Stenberg
data!
2009-10-18John Dennis filed bug report #2873666Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2873666) which identified a problem which made libcurl loop infinitely when given incorrect credentials when using HTTP GSS negotiate authentication.
2009-10-18- Kevin Baughman found a double close() problem with libcurl-NSS, as whenDaniel Stenberg
libcurl called NSS to close the SSL "session" it also closed the actual socket.
2009-10-17Fix invalid file name characters handling on WindowsYang Tse
2009-10-01- Tom Mueller correctly reported in bug report #2870221Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2870221) that libcurl returned an incorrect return code from the internal trynextip() function which caused him grief. This is a regression that was introduced in 7.19.1 and I find it strange it hasn't hit us harder, but I won't persue into figuring out exactly why.
2009-10-01- Constantine Sapuntzakis: The current implementation will always setDaniel Stenberg
SO_SNDBUF to CURL_WRITE_SIZE even if the SO_SNDBUF starts out larger. The patch doesn't do a setsockopt if SO_SNDBUF is already greater than CURL_WRITE_SIZE. This should help folks who have set up their computer with large send buffers.
