2009-08-01- Alexander Beedie provided the patch for a noproxy problem: If I have setDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_NOPROXY to "*", or to a host that should not use a proxy, I actually could still end up using a proxy if a proxy environment variable was set.
2009-07-27- All the quote options (CURLOPT_QUOTE, CURLOPT_POSTQUOTE andDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_PREQUOTE) now accept a preceeding asterisk before the command to send when using FTP, as a sign that libcurl shall simply ignore the response from the server instead of treating it as an error. Not treating a 400+ FTP response code as an error means that failed commands will not abort the chain of commands, nor will they cause the connection to get disconnected.
2009-07-26- Bug report #2825989 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2825989) pointedDaniel Stenberg
out that OpenSSL-powered libcurl didn't support the SHA-2 digest algorithm, and provided the solution too: to use OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() instead of the older SSLeay_* alternative. OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms was added in OpenSSL 0.9.5
2009-07-22- Added CURLOPT_SSH_KNOWNHOSTS, CURLOPT_SSH_KEYFUNCTION, CURLOPT_SSH_KEYDATA.Daniel Stenberg
They introduce known_host support for SSH keys to libcurl. See docs for details.
2009-07-22- David Binderman found a memory and fd leak in lib/gtls.c:load_file()Michal Marek
(https://bugzilla.novell.com/523919). When looking at the code, I found that also the ptr pointer can leak.
2009-07-20- Claes Jakobsson improved the support for client certificates handlingKamil Dudka
in NSS-powered libcurl. Now the client certificates can be selected automatically by a NSS built-in hook. Additionally pre-login to all PKCS11 slots is no more performed. It used to cause problems with HW tokens. - Fixed reference counting for NSS client certificates. Now the PEM reader module should be always properly unloaded on Curl_nss_cleanup(). If the unload fails though, libcurl will try to reuse the already loaded instance.
2009-07-15Added nonblock.c to the non-automake makefiles (note that the dependenciesDan Fandrich
in the Watcom makefiles aren't quite correct).
2009-07-15- Changed the description of CURLINFO_OS_ERRNO to make it clear that theMichal Marek
errno is not reset on success.
2009-07-14renamed generated config.h to curl_config.h in order to avoid clashes when ↵Gunter Knauf
libcurl is used with other projects which also have a config.h.
2009-07-09- Eric Wong introduced curlx_nonblock() that the curl tool now (re-)uses forDaniel Stenberg
setting a file descriptor non-blocking. Used by the functionality Eric himself brough on June 15th.
2009-07-08- Constantine Sapuntzakis posted bug report #2813123Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2813123) and an a patch that fixes the problem: Url A is accessed using auth. Url A redirects to Url B (on a different server0. Url B reuses a persistent connection. Url B has auth, even though it's on a different server. Note: if Url B does not reuse a persistent connection, auth is not sent.
2009-07-04Markus Koetter provided a patch to avoid getnameinfo() usage which broke a ↵Gunter Knauf
couple of both IPv4 and IPv6 autobuilds.
2009-06-29- Markus Koetter made CURLOPT_FTPPORT (and curl's -P/--ftpport) support a portDaniel Stenberg
range if given colon-separated after the host name/address part. Like "192.168.0.1:2000-10000"
2009-06-17Added a few more compiler warning options for gcc.Dan Fandrich
2009-06-16- Reuven Wachtfogel made curl -o - properly produce a binary output on windowsDaniel Stenberg
(no newline translations). Use -B/--use-ascii if you rather get the ascii approach.
2009-06-16- When doing non-anonymous ftp via http proxies and the password is notMichal Marek
provided in the url, add it there (squid needs this).
2009-06-15- Eric Wong's patch:Daniel Stenberg
This allows curl(1) to be used as a client-side tunnel for arbitrary stream protocols by abusing chunked transfer encoding in both the HTTP request and HTTP response. This requires server support for sending a response while a request is still being read, of course. If attempting to read from stdin returns EAGAIN, then we pause our sender. This leaves curl to attempt to read from the socket while reading from stdin (and thus sending) is paused.
2009-06-15Replaced use of standard C library rand()/srand() by our own pseudo-random ↵Patrick Monnerat
number generator.
2009-06-11mention configure --enable-curldebug decoupled from --enable-debugYang Tse
2009-06-11changed testcurl script to allow building test harnessYang Tse
programs when cross-compiling for a *-*-mingw* host.
2009-06-10- Fabian Keil ran clang on the (lib)curl code, found a bunch of warnings andDaniel Stenberg
contributed a range of patches to fix them.

2009-06-08- Claes Jakobsson provided a patch for libcurl-NSS that fixed a bad refcountDaniel Stenberg
issue with client certs that caused issues like segfaults. http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2009-05/0316.html
2009-06-08- Triggered by bug report #2798852 and the patch in there, I fixed configureDaniel Stenberg
to detect gnutls build options with pkg-config only and not libgnutls-config anymore since GnuTLS has stopped distributing that tool. If an explicit path is given to configure, we will instead guess on how to link and use that lib. I did not use the patch from the bug report.

2009-06-05- Setting the Content-Length: header from your app when you do a POST or PUTDaniel Stenberg
is almost always a VERY BAD IDEA. Yet there are still apps out there doing this, and now recently it triggered a bug/side-effect in libcurl as when libcurl sends a POST or PUT with NTLM, it sends an empty post first when it knows it will just get a 401/407 back. If the app then replaced the Content-Length header, it caused the server to wait for input that libcurl wouldn't send. Aaron Oneal reported this problem in bug report #2799008 http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2799008) and helped us verify the fix.
2009-06-04allow building libcurl for VxWorksYang Tse
2009-06-02Created a basic Android make file for curl and libcurl. A config.hDan Fandrich
is also needed before curl can be built in Android, but it's not clear what the best way is to provide one.
2009-06-01- Claes Jakobsson fixed the configure script to better find and use NSSDaniel Stenberg
without pkg-config.

2009-05-27- Claes Jakobsson fixed libcurl-NSS to build fine even without theDaniel Stenberg
PK11_CreateGenericObject() function.
2009-05-27- Mike Crowe pointed out that setting CURLOPT_USERPWD to NULL used to clearDaniel Stenberg
the auth credentials back in 7.19.0 and earlier while now you have to set "" to get the same effect. His patch brings back the ability to use NULL.
2009-05-27- Andre Guibert de Bruet found a call to a OpenSSL function that didn't checkDaniel Stenberg
for a failure properly.
2009-05-27- Frank McGeough provided a small OpenSSL #include fix to make libcurl compileDaniel Stenberg
fine with Nokia 5th edition 1.0 SDK for Symbian.
2009-05-25- bug report #2796358 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2796358) pointedDaniel Stenberg
out that the cookie parser would leak memory when it parses cookies that are received with domain, path etc set multiple times in the same header. While such a cookie is questionable, they occur in the wild and libcurl no longer leaks memory for them. I added such a header to test case 8.
2009-05-22Removed some obsolete digest code that caused a valgrind error in test 551.Dan Fandrich
2009-05-20Added "non-existing host" test keywords to make it easy to skip thoseDan Fandrich
tests on machines that have broken DNS configurations (such as those configured to use OpenDNS).
2009-05-19- Kamil Dudka brought the patch from the Redhat bug entryDaniel Stenberg
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=427966 which was libcurl closing a bad file descriptor when closing down the FTP data connection. Caolan McNamara seems to be the original author of it.
2009-05-187.19.5 coming upDaniel Stenberg
2009-05-17- James Bursa posted a patch to the mailing list that fixed a problem withDaniel Stenberg
no_proxy which made it not skip the proxy if the URL entered contained a user name. I added test case 1101 to verify.
2009-05-11- Balint Szilakszi reported a memory leak when libcurl did gzip decompressionDaniel Stenberg
of streams that had some parts (legitimately) missing. We now provide and use a proper cleanup function for the content encoding submodule. http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2009-05/0092.html
2009-05-11- Kamil Dudka provided a fix for libcurl-NSS reported by Michael CronenworthDaniel Stenberg
at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=453612#c12 If an incorrect password is given while loading a private key, libcurl ends up in an infinite loop consuming memory. The bug is critical.
2009-05-11- I fixed the problem with doing NTLM, POST and then following a 302 redirect,Daniel Stenberg
as reported by Ebenezer Ikonne (on curl-users) and Laurent Rabret (on curl-library). The transfer was mistakenly marked to get more data to send but since it didn't actually have that, it just hung there...
2009-05-10- Andre Guibert de Bruet correctly pointed out an over-alloc with one wastedDaniel Stenberg
byte in the digest code.
