2008-07-01- Rolland Dudemaine provided fixes to get libcurl to build for the INTEGRITYDaniel Stenberg
operating system.
2008-06-30- Stephen Collyer and Tor Arntsen helped identify a flaw in the range codeDaniel Stenberg
which output the range using a signed variable where it should rather use unsigned.
2008-06-29John Lightsey filed bug report #1999181: "CLOCK_MONOTONIC always fails onYang Tse
some systems" (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1999181). The problem was that the configure script did not use the _POSIX_MONOTONIC_CLOCK feature test macro when checking monotonic clock availability. This is now fixed and the monotonic clock will not be used unless the feature test macro is defined with a value greater than zero indicating always supported.
2008-06-26Honour --stderr with the -v option.Dan Fandrich
Fixed a file handle leak in the command line client if more than one --stderr option was given.
2008-06-22- Eduard Bloch filed the debian bug report #487567Daniel Stenberg
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=487567) pointing out that libcurl used Content-Range: instead of Range when doing a range request with --head (CURLOPT_NOBODY). This is now fixed and test case 1032 was added to verify.
2008-06-22Stopped using ranges in scanf character sequences (e.g. %[a-z]) since thatDan Fandrich
is not ANSI C, just a common extension. This caused problems on at least Open Watcom C.
2008-06-20Modified configuration script to actually verify if the compiler is goodYang Tse
enough at detecting compilation errors or at least it has been properly configured to do so. Configuration heavily depends on this capability, so if this compiler sanity check fails the configuration process will now fail.
2008-06-20- Phil Pellouchoud found a case where libcurl built with NSS failed toDaniel Stenberg
handshake with a SSLv2 server, and it turned out to be because it didn't recognize the cipher named "rc4-md5". In our list that cipher was named plainly "rc4". I've now added rc4-md5 to work as an alias as Phil reported that it made things work for him again.
2008-06-20- Hans-Jurgen May pointed out that trying SCP or SFTP over a SOCKS proxyDaniel Stenberg
crashed libcurl. This is now addressed by making sure we use "plain send" internally when doing the socks handshake instead of the Curl_write() function which is designed to use the "target" protocol. That's then SCP or SFTP in this case. I also took the opportunity and cleaned up some ssh- related #ifdefs in the code for readability.
2008-06-19minor language fixDaniel Stenberg
2008-06-19- Christopher Palow fixed a curl_multi_socket() issue which previous causedDaniel Stenberg
libcurl to not tell the app properly when a socket was closed (when the name resolve done by c-ares is done) and then immediately re-created and put to use again (for the actual connection). Since the closure will make the "watch status" get lost in several event-based systems libcurl will need to tell the app about this close/re-create case.
2008-06-19- Dengminwen found a bug in the connection re-use function when using theDaniel Stenberg
multi interface with pipelining enabled as it would wrongly check for, detect and close "dead connections" even though that connection was already in use!
2008-06-19Fixed a memory leak in the command-line tool that caused a valgrind error.Dan Fandrich
2008-06-19Added SSH failure test cases 628-632Dan Fandrich
2008-06-18- Rob Crittenden brought a fix for the NSS layer that makes libcurl no longerDaniel Stenberg
always fire up a new connection rather than using the existing one when the multi interface is used. Original bug report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=450140
2008-06-18No longer break out of a shell "for" statement from insideYang Tse
AC_FOO_IFELSE macros, otherwise temp files are not removed. Identation adjustment.
2008-06-13Fixed curl-config --ca which wasn't being exported by configure.Dan Fandrich
2008-06-11- I did a cleanup of the internal generic SSL layer and how the various SSLDaniel Stenberg
libraries are supported. Starting now, each underlying SSL library support code does a set of defines for the 16 functions the generic layer (sslgen.c) uses (all these new function defines use the prefix "curlssl_"). This greatly simplified the generic layer in readability by involving much less #ifdefs and other preprocessor stuff and should make it easier for people to make libcurl work with new SSL libraries. Hopefully I can later on document these 16 functions somewhat as well. I also made most of the internal SSL-dependent functions (using Curl_ssl_ prefix) #defined to nothing when no SSL support is requested - previously they would unnecessarily call mostly empty functions.
2008-06-10- I made the OpenSSL code build again with OpenSSL 0.9.6. The CRLFILEDaniel Stenberg
functionality killed it due to its unconditional use of X509_STORE_set_flags...
2008-06-08the next release is now called 7.19.0Daniel Stenberg
2008-06-08- curl the tool now deals with its command line options somewhat differently!Daniel Stenberg
All boolean options (such as -O, -I, -v etc), both short and long versions, now always switch on/enable the option named. Using the same option multiple times thus make no difference. To switch off one of those options, you need to use the long version of the option and type --no-OPTION. Like to disable verbose mode you use --no-verbose! - Added --remote-name-all to curl, which if used changes the default for all given URLs to be dealt with as if -O is used. So if you want to disable that for a specific URL after --remote-name-all has been used, you muse use -o - or --no-remote-name.
2008-06-06Moved all changes from 2007 from CHANGES to CHANGES.0Daniel Stenberg
2008-06-06- Axel Tillequin and Arnaud Ebalard added support for CURLOPT_ISSUERCERT, forDaniel Stenberg
OpenSSL, NSS and GnuTLS-built libcurls.
2008-06-06- Axel Tillequin and Arnaud Ebalard added support for CURLOPT_CRLFILE, forDaniel Stenberg
OpenSSL, NSS and GnuTLS-built libcurls.
2008-06-06- Added CURLINFO_PRIMARY_IP as a new information retrievable withDaniel Stenberg
curl_easy_getinfo. It returns a pointer to a string with the most recently used IP address. Modified test case 500 to also verify this feature. The implementing of this feature was sponsored by Lenny Rachitsky at NeuStar.
2008-06-047.18.2Daniel Stenberg
2008-06-03Fixed a problem where telnet data would be lost if an EWOULDBLOCKDan Fandrich
condition were encountered.
2008-06-01(committed this for Marty Kuhrt:)Daniel Stenberg
- Updated main.c to return CURLE_OK if PARAM_HELP_REQUESTED was returned from getparameter instead of CURLE_FAILED_INIT. No point in returning an error if --help or --version were requested.
2008-05-28- Emil Romanus found a problem and helped me repeat it. It occured when usingDaniel Stenberg
the curl_multi_socket() API with HTTP pipelining enabled and could lead to the pipeline basically stalling for a very long period of time until it took off again.
2008-05-28- Jeff Weber reported memory leaks with aborted SCP and SFTP transfers andDaniel Stenberg
provided excellent repeat recipes. I fixed the cases I managed to reproduce but Jeff still got some (SCP) problems even after these fixes: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-05/0342.html
2008-05-26- Bug report #1973352 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1973352) identifiedDaniel Stenberg
how the HTTP redirect following code didn't properly follow to a new URL if the new url was but a query string such as "Location: ?moo=foo". Test case 1031 was added to verify this fix.
2008-05-26Andreas Faerber and Scott McCreary made (lib)curl build for the Haiku OSDaniel Stenberg
2008-05-26David Rosenstrauch reported that header files spnegohelp.h andYang Tse
openssl/objects.h were needed to compile SPNEGO support.
2008-05-22Made sure to pass longs in to curl_easy_setopt where necessary in theDan Fandrich
libtest code.
2008-05-19- When trying to repeat a multi interface problem I fell over a few multiDaniel Stenberg
interface problems: o with pipelining disabled, the state should never be set to WAITDO but rather go straight to DO o we had multiple states for which the internal function returned no socket at all to wait for, with the effect that libcurl calls the socket callback (when curl_multi_socket() is used) with REMOVE prematurely (as it would be added again within very shortly) o when in DO and DOING states, the HTTP and HTTPS protocol handler functions didn't return that the socket should be waited for writing, but instead it was treated as if no socket was needing monitoring so again REMOVE was called prematurely.
2008-05-13Added test case 556 that uses curl_easy_send() and curl_easy_recv()Daniel Stenberg
2008-05-12- Introducing curl_easy_send() and curl_easy_recv(). They can be used to sendDaniel Stenberg
and receive data over a connection previously setup with curl_easy_perform() and its CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY option. The sendrecv.c example was added to show how they can be used.
2008-05-09Internal time differences now use monotonic time source if available.Yang Tse
This also implies the removal of the winmm.lib dependency for WIN32.
2008-05-09- Stefan Krause reported a busy-looping case when using the multi interfaceDaniel Stenberg
and doing CONNECT to a proxy. The app would then busy-loop until the proxy completed its response.
2008-05-09- Make Curl_write and it's callees accept a const pointer, in preparationMichal Marek
of tetetest's patch for curl_easy_send()
2008-05-07- Liam Healy filed the debian bug report #480044Daniel Stenberg
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=480044) identifying a segfault when using krb5 ftp, but the krb4 code had the same problem.
2008-05-07Christopher Palow provided the patch (edited by me) that introducesYang Tse
the use of microsecond resolution keys for internal splay trees. http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-04/0513.html
2008-05-03- Yuriy Sosov pointed out a configure fix for detecting c-ares when that isDaniel Stenberg
built debug-enabled.
2008-05-03- Ben Van Hof filed bug report #1945240: "libcurl sometimes sends body twiceDaniel Stenberg
when using CURL_AUTH_ANY" (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1945240). The problem was that when libcurl rewound a stream meant for upload when it would prepare for a second request, it could accidentally continue the sending of the rewound data on the first request instead of on the second. Ben also provided test case 1030 that verifies this fix.
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.
2008-04-29improved easy interface resolving timeout handling in c-ares enabled buildsYang Tse
2008-04-29Added test 1028 to test an HTTP redirect to a FTP URL.Dan Fandrich
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.
