2006-11-25Venkat Akella found out that libcurl did not like HTTP responses that simplyDaniel Stenberg
responded with a single status line and no headers nor body. Starting now, a HTTP response on a persistent connection (i.e not set to be closed after the response has been taken care of) must have Content-Length or chunked encoding set, or libcurl will simply assume that there is no body. To my horror I learned that we had no less than 57(!) test cases that did bad HTTP responses like this, and even the test http server (sws) responded badly when queried by the test system if it is the test system. So although the actual fix for the problem was tiny, going through all the newly failing test cases got really painful and boring.
2006-11-24James Housley did lots of work and introduced SFTP downloads.Daniel Stenberg
2006-11-13Ron in bug #1595348 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1595348) pointedDaniel Stenberg
out a stack overwrite (and the corresponding fix) on 64bit Windows when dealing with HTTP chunked encoding.
2006-11-09Nir Soffer updated libcurl.framework.make: fix symlinks, should link toDaniel Stenberg
Versions, not to ./Versions and indentation improvments
2006-11-09Dmitriy Sergeyev found a SIGSEGV with his test04.c example posted on 7 NovDaniel Stenberg
2006. It turned out we wrongly assumed that the connection cache was present when tearing down a connection.
2006-11-09Ciprian Badescu found a SIGSEGV when doing multiple TFTP transfers using theDaniel Stenberg
multi interface, but I could also repeat it doing multiple sequential ones with the easy interface. Using Ciprian's test case, I could fix it.
2006-11-08Bradford Bruce reported that when setting CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION withoutDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_VERBOSE set to non-zero, you still got a few debug messages from the SSL handshake. This is now stopped.
2006-11-07Olaf fixed a leftover problem with the CONNECT fix of his that would leave aDaniel Stenberg
wrong error message in the error message buffer.
2006-11-03Olaf Stueben provided a patch that I edited slightly. It fixes the notoriousDaniel Stenberg
KNOWN_BUGS #25, which happens when a proxy closes the connection when libcurl has sent CONNECT, as part of an authentication negotiation. Starting now, libcurl will re-connect accordingly and continue the authentication as it should.
2006-11-02mention the new optionsDaniel Stenberg
2006-11-02James Housley brought support for SCP transfersDaniel Stenberg
2006-10-297.16.0 materialDaniel Stenberg
2006-10-25Fixed CURLOPT_FAILONERROR to return CURLE_HTTP_RETURNED_ERROR even for theDaniel Stenberg
case when 401 or 407 are returned, *IF* no auth credentials have been given. The CURLOPT_FAILONERROR option is not possible to make fool-proof for 401 and 407 cases when auth credentials is given, but we've now covered this somewhat more. You might get some amounts of headers transferred before this situation is detected, like for when a "100-continue" is received as a response to a POST/PUT and a 401 or 407 is received immediately afterwards. Added test 281 to verify this change.
2006-10-23Ravi Pratap provided a major update with pipelining fixes. We also no longerDaniel Stenberg
re-use connections (for pipelining) before the name resolving is done.
2006-10-21Nir Soffer made the tests/libtest/Makefile.am use a proper variable for allDaniel Stenberg
the single test applications' link and dependences, so that you easier can override those from the command line when using make.
2006-10-21Armel Asselin separated CA cert verification problems from problems withDaniel Stenberg
reading the (local) CA cert file to let users easier pinpoint the actual problem. CURLE_SSL_CACERT_BADFILE (77) is the new libcurl error code.
2006-10-18changes done the last few daysDaniel Stenberg
2006-10-16Added a check in configure that simply tries to run a program (not whenDaniel Stenberg
cross-compiling) in order to detect problems with run-time libraries that otherwise would occur when the sizeof tests for curl_off_t would run and thus be much more confusing to users. The check of course should run after all lib-checks are done and before any other test is used that would run an executable built for testing-purposes.
2006-10-13The tagging of application/x-www-form-urlencoded POST body data sentDan Fandrich
to the CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION callback has been fixed (it was erroneously included as part of the header). A message was also added to the command line tool to show when data is being sent, enabled when --verbose is used.
2006-10-12Starting now, adding an easy handle to a multi stack that was already addedDaniel Stenberg
to a multi stack will cause CURLM_BAD_EASY_HANDLE to get returned.
2006-10-12Jeff Pohlmeyer has been working with the hiperfifo.c example source code,Daniel Stenberg
and while doing so it became apparent that the current timeout system for the socket API really was a bit awkward since it become quite some work to be sure we have the correct timeout set. Jeff then provided the new CURLMOPT_TIMERFUNCTION that is yet another callback the app can set to get to know when the general timeout time changes and thus for an application like hiperfifo.c it makes everything a lot easier and nicer. There's a CURLMOPT_TIMERDATA option too of course in good old libcurl tradition.
2006-10-09Bogdan Nicula's second test case (posted Sun, 08 Oct 2006) converted to testDaniel Stenberg
case 535 and it now runs fine. Again a problem with the pipelining code not taking all possible (error) conditions into account.
2006-10-06Bogdan Nicula's hanging test case was converted to test case 533 and the testDaniel Stenberg
now runs fine.
2006-10-04Dmitriy Sergeyev provided an example source code that crashed CVS libcurlDaniel Stenberg
but that worked nicely in 7.15.5. I converted it into test case 532 and fixed the problem.
2006-09-30Support for FTP third party transfers is now droppedDaniel Stenberg
2006-09-28Reported in #1561470 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1561470), libcurlDaniel Stenberg
would crash if a bad function sequence was used when shutting down after using the multi interface (i.e using easy_cleanup after multi_cleanup) so precautions have been added to make sure it doesn't any more - test case 529 was added to verify.
2006-09-24Bernard Leak fixed configure --with-gssapi-libsDaniel Stenberg
2006-09-24Cory Nelson made libcurl use the WSAPoll() function if built for WindowsDaniel Stenberg
Vista (_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0600)
2006-09-23Mike Protts added --ftp-ssl-control to make curl use FTP-SSL, but onlyDaniel Stenberg
encrypt the control connection and use the data connection "plain".
2006-09-23Dmitriy Sergeyev provided a patch that made the SOCKS[45] code work better asDaniel Stenberg
it now will read the full data sent from servers. The SOCKS-related code was also moved to the new lib/socks.c source file.
2006-09-21(FTP) a failed upload does not invalidate the control connectionDaniel Stenberg
2006-09-20Armel Asselin fixed problems when you gave a proxy URL with user name andDaniel Stenberg
empty password or no password at all. Test case 278 and 279 were added to verify.
2006-09-12stuff we doDaniel Stenberg
2006-09-11- Fixed my breakage from earlier today so that doing curl_easy_cleanup() on aDaniel Stenberg
handle that is part of a multi handle first removes the handle from the stack. - Added CURLOPT_SSL_SESSIONID_CACHE and --no-sessionid to disable SSL session-ID re-use on demand since there obviously are broken servers out there that misbehave with session-IDs used.
2006-09-10curl_multi_socket() fix thanks to Jeff's test codeDaniel Stenberg
2006-09-09Michele Bini fixed how the hostname is put in NTLM packages. As serversDaniel Stenberg
don't expect fully qualified names we need to cut them off at the first dot.
2006-09-08Peter Sylvester cleaned up and fixed the getsockname() uses in ftp.c. SomeDaniel Stenberg
of them can be completetly removed though...
2006-09-07Major overhaul introducing http pipelining support and shared connectionDaniel Stenberg
cache within the multi handle.
2006-09-04proper creditDaniel Stenberg
2006-09-03- "Dortik" (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1551412) provided a patch thatDaniel Stenberg
while not fixing things very nicely, it does make the SOCKS5 proxy connection slightly better as it now acknowledges the timeout for connection and it no longer segfaults in the case when SOCKS requires authentication and you did not specify username:password.
2006-08-31Dmitriy Sergeyev found and fixed a multi interface flaw when using asynchDaniel Stenberg
name resolves. It could get stuck in the wrong state.
2006-08-30Added support for more MS-DOS compilers.Gisle Vanem
2006-08-29David McCreedy added CURLOPT_SOCKOPTFUNCTION and CURLOPT_SOCKOPTDATA toDaniel Stenberg
allow applications to set their own socket options.
2006-08-25Armel Asselin reported that the 'running_handles' counter wasn't updatedDaniel Stenberg
properly if you removed a "live" handle from a multi handle with curl_multi_remove_handle().
2006-08-22David McCreedy fixed a remaining mistake from the August 19 TYPE change.Daniel Stenberg
2006-08-22Peter Sylvester pointed out a flaw in the AllowServerConnect() in the FTPDaniel Stenberg
code when doing pure ipv6 EPRT connections.
2006-08-19Based on a patch by Armel Asselin, the FTP code no longer re-issues the TYPEDaniel Stenberg
command on subsequent requests on a re-used connection unless it has to.
2006-08-18Armel Asselin fixed a crash in the FTP code when using SINGLECWD mode andDaniel Stenberg
files in the root directory.
2006-08-18Andrew Biggs pointed out a "Expect: 100-continue" flaw where libcurl didn'tDaniel Stenberg
send the whole request at once, even though the Expect: header was disabled by the application. An effect of this change is also that small (< 1024 bytes) POSTs are now always sent without Expect: header since we deem it more costly to bother about that than the risk that we send the data in vain.
2006-08-08Armel Asselin made the CURLOPT_PREQUOTE option work fine even whenDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_NOBODY is set true. PREQUOTE is then run roughly at the same place in the command sequence as it would have run if there would've been a transfer.
