2007-04-20- Save one call to curlx_tvnow(), which calls gettimeofday(), in each ofYang Tse
Curl_socket_ready(), Curl_poll() and Curl_select() when these are called with a zero timeout or a timeout value indicating a blocking call should be performed. These unnecessary calls to gettimeofday() got introduced in 7.16.2 when fixing 'timeout would restart when signal caught while awaiting socket events' on 20 March 2007. - Move some loop breaking logic from the while clause into the loop, avoiding compiler warning 'assignment within conditional expression'
2007-04-18- James Housley made SFTP uploads use libssh2's non-blocking API (if available)Daniel Stenberg
2007-04-18- Prevent the internal progress meter from updating more frequently than onceDaniel Stenberg
per second.
2007-04-18Added test cases 296, 297 and 298 to test --ftp-method handlingDan Fandrich
2007-04-16- Robert Iakobashvil added curl_multi_socket_action() to libcurl, which is aDaniel Stenberg
function that deprecates the curl_multi_socket() function. Using the new function the application tell libcurl what action that was found in the socket that it passes in. This gives a significant performance boost as it allows libcurl to avoid a call to poll()/select() for every call to curl_multi_socket*().
2007-04-16Jay Austin added "DH PARAMETERS" to the stunnel.pem certificateDaniel Stenberg
2007-04-13Added test cases 294 and 295 to test --ftp-account handlingDan Fandrich
2007-04-13Fix test case 534 which started to fail 2007-04-13 due to the existanceYang Tse
of a new host on the net with the same silly domain the test was using for a host which was supposed not to exist.
2007-04-12Song Ma found a memory leak in the if2ip code if you pass in an interfaceDaniel Stenberg
name longer than the name field of the ifreq struct (typically 6 bytes), as then it wouldn't close the used dummy socket.
2007-04-117.16.2Daniel Stenberg
2007-04-10Ravi Pratap provided fixes for HTTP pipeliningDaniel Stenberg
2007-04-10configure script will ignore --enable-sspi option for non-native WindowsYang Tse
2007-04-08Nick Zitzmann did ssh.c cleanupsDaniel Stenberg
2007-04-03Rob Jones fixed better #ifdef'ing for a bunch of #include lines.Daniel Stenberg
2007-04-02Nick Zitzmann made CURLOPT_POSTQUOTE work for SFTP as well.Daniel Stenberg
2007-04-01Robert Iakobashvili made curl_multi_remove_handle() a lot faster when manyDaniel Stenberg
easy handles are added to a multi handle, by avoiding the looping over all the handles to find which one to remove.
2007-04-01Matt Kraai provided a patch that makes curl build on QNX 6 fine again. MostlyDaniel Stenberg
by letting configure check for setmode and ifdef on HAVE_SETMODE. NOTE: non- configure platforms that havve setmode() needs their hard-coded config.h files fixed. I fixed the src/config-win32.h.
2007-03-31"Pixel" fixed a problem that appeared when you used -f with user+passwordDaniel Stenberg
embedded in the URL.
2007-03-30Don't tear down the ftp connection if the maximum filesize was exceededDan Fandrich
and added tests 290 and 291 to check.
2007-03-27New Internal wrapper function Curl_select() around select (2), itYang Tse
uses poll() when a fine poll() is available, so now libcurl can be built without select() support at all if a fine poll() is available.
2007-03-26Fix dateYang Tse
2007-03-26Internal function Curl_select() renamed to Curl_socket_ready()Yang Tse
2007-03-25- Daniel Johnson fixed multi code to traverse the easy handle list properly.Daniel Stenberg
A left-over bug from the February 21 fix.
2007-03-24Fixed a memory leak when specifying a proxy with a file: URL and addedDan Fandrich
test case 288 to verify it.
2007-03-24Changed the test harness to attempt to gracefully shut down serversDan Fandrich
before resorting to the kill -9 hammer. Added test harness infrastructure to support scp/sftp tests, using OpenSSH as the server.
2007-03-23Added --pubkey option to curl and made --key also work for SCP/SFTP,Dan Fandrich
plus made --pass work on an SSH private key as well.
2007-03-20Fixed: When a signal was caught awaiting for an event using Curl_select()Yang Tse
or Curl_poll() with a non-zero timeout both functions would restart the specified timeout. This could even lead to the extreme case that if a signal arrived with a frecuency lower to the specified timeout neither function would ever exit. Added experimental symbol definition check CURL_ACKNOWLEDGE_EINTR in Curl_select() and Curl_poll(). When compiled with CURL_ACKNOWLEDGE_EINTR defined both functions will return as soon as a signal is caught. Use it at your own risk, all calls to these functions in the library should be revisited and checked before fully supporting this feature.
2007-03-19Bryan Henderson fixed the progress function so that it can get calledYang Tse
more frequently allowing same calling frecuency for the client progress callback, while keeping the once a second frecuency for speed calculations and internal display of the transfer progress.
2007-03-15Various memory leaks plugged and NULL pointer fixes made in the ssh code.Dan Fandrich
2007-03-15- Nick made the curl tool accept globbing ranges that only is one number, i.eDaniel Stenberg
you can now use [1-1] without curl complaining.
2007-03-11reverted the pselect patch => http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2007-03/0100.htmlDaniel Stenberg
2007-03-10Eygene Ryabinkin fixed a use-after-free issue with HTTP transfers with theDaniel Stenberg
multi interface
2007-03-10- Bryan Henderson introduces two things:Daniel Stenberg
1) the progress callback gets called more frequently (at times) 2) libcurl *might* call the callback when it receives a signal
2007-03-09Updated the test harness to add a new "crypto" feature check and updated theDan Fandrich
appropriate test case to use it. For now, this is treated the same as the "SSL" feature because curl doesn't list it separately.
2007-03-09- Robert Iakobashvili fixed CURLOPT_INTERFACE for IPv6.Daniel Stenberg
2007-03-09- Robert A. Monat improved the maketgz and VC6/8 generating to set the correctDaniel Stenberg
machine type too.
2007-03-09- Justin Fletcher fixed a file descriptor leak in the curl tool when trying toDaniel Stenberg
upload a file it couldn't open. Bug #1676581 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1676581)
2007-03-09Updated the test harness to check for protocol support before running eachDan Fandrich
test, fixing KNOWN_BUGS #11. Fixed some tests to more accurately specify their required servers and features.
2007-03-08Added SSL as a required feature for test case 400.Dan Fandrich
2007-03-07Honour --ftp-ssl-control on ftps:// URLs to allow encrypted control andDan Fandrich
unencrypted data connections.
2007-03-02- Robert A. Monat and Shmulik Regev helped out to fix the new */Makefile.vc8Daniel Stenberg
makefiles that are included in the source release archives, generated from the Makefile.vc6 files by the maketgz script. I also modified the root Makefile to have a VC variable that defaults to vc6 but can be overridden to allow it to be used for vc8 as well. Like this: nmake VC=vc8 vc
2007-02-27- Hang Kin Lau found and fixed: When I use libcurl to connect to an httpsDaniel Stenberg
server through a proxy and have the remote https server port set using the CURLOPT_PORT option, protocol gets reset to http from https after the first request. User defined URL was modified internally by libcurl and subsequent reuse of the easy handle may lead to connection using a different protocol (if not originally http). I found that libcurl hardcoded the protocol to "http" when it tries to regenerate the URL if CURLOPT_PORT is set. I tried to fix the problem as follows and it's working fine so far
2007-02-25- Adam D. Moss made the HTTP CONNECT procedure less blocking when used fromDaniel Stenberg
the multi interface. Note that it still does a part of the connection in a blocking manner.
2007-02-23- Added warning outputs if the command line uses more than one of the optionsDaniel Stenberg
-v, --trace and --trace-ascii, since it could really confuse the user. Clarified this fact in the man page.
2007-02-21- Ravi Pratap provided work on libcurl making pipelining more robust andDaniel Stenberg
fixing some bugs: o Don't mix GET and POST requests in a pipeline o Fix the order in which requests are dispatched from the pipeline o Fixed several curl bugs with pipelining when the server is returning chunked encoding: * Added states to chunked parsing for final CRLF * Rewind buffer after parsing chunk with data remaining * Moved chunked header initializing to a spot just before receiving headers
2007-02-19Ian Turner fixed the libcurl.m4 macro's support for --with-libcurl.Daniel Stenberg
AC_PATH_PROG was not used properly.
2007-02-19- Shmulik Regev found a memory leak in re-used HTTPS connections, at leastDaniel Stenberg
when the multi interface was used.
2007-02-19- Robson Braga Araujo made passive FTP transfers work with SOCKS (both 4 andDaniel Stenberg
5).
2007-02-18- Jeff Pohlmeyer identified two problems: first a rather obscure problem withDaniel Stenberg
the multi interface and connection re-use that could make a curl_multi_remove_handle() ruin a pointer in another handle. The second problem was less of an actual problem but more of minor quirk: the re-using of connections wasn't properly checking if the connection was marked for closure.
2007-02-16- Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett and Michal Marek reported problems with resettingDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_RANGE back to no range on an easy handle when using FTP.
