2008-10-16- Igor Novoseltsev added CURLOPT_PROXYUSER and CURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD that thenDaniel Stenberg
make CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD sort of deprecated. The primary motive for adding these new options is that they have no problems with the colon separator that the CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD option does.

2008-10-15- Pascal Terjan filed bug #2154627Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2154627) which pointed out that libcurl uses strcasecmp() in multiple places where it causes failures when the Turkish locale is used. This is because 'i' and 'I' isn't the same letter so strcasecmp() on those letters are different in Turkish than in English (or just about all other languages). I thus introduced a totally new internal function in libcurl (called Curl_ascii_equal) for doing case insentive comparisons for english-(ascii?) style strings that thus will make "file" and "FILE" match even if the Turkish locale is selected.
2008-10-15A <precheck> command is considered to have failed if it returns a non-zeroDan Fandrich
return code. This way, if the precheck command can't be run at all for whatever reason, it's treated as a precheck failure which causes the test to be skipped.

2008-10-15- John Wilkinson filed bug #2155496Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2155496) pointing out an error case without a proper human-readable error message. When a read callback returns a too large value (like when trying to return a negative number) it would trigger and the generic error message then makes the proplem slightly different to track down. I've added an error message for this now.

2008-10-09Fixed the --interface option to work with IPv6 connections on glibcDan Fandrich
systems supporting getifaddrs(). Also fixed a problem where an IPv6 address could be chosen instead of an IPv4 one for --interface when it involved a name lookup.
2008-10-09Added tests 633 through 637 to test the new file range support for SFTP.Dan Fandrich
All but the first test cause an infinite loop or other failure and so are added to DISABLED.
2008-10-08- Bug #2152270 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2152270) identified andDaniel Stenberg
fixed a CURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL memory leak and an additional wrong-doing: Any subsequent transfer with a redirect leaks memory, eventually crashing the process potentially. Any subsequent transfer WITHOUT a redirect causes the most recent redirect that DID occur on some previous transfer to still be reported.
2008-10-08Added tests 1082 through 1085 to test symbolic --interface parametersDan Fandrich
2008-10-08- Igor filed bug #2111613 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2111613) thatDaniel Stenberg
eventually identified a flaw in how the multi_socket interface in some cases missed to call the timeout callback when easy interfaces are removed and added within the same millisecond.
2008-10-08- Igor Novoseltsev brought a patch that introduced two new options toDaniel Stenberg
curl_easy_setopt: CURLOPT_USERNAME and CURLOPT_PASSWORD that sort of deprecates the good old CURLOPT_USERPWD since they allow applications to set the user name and password independently and perhaps more importantly allow both to contain colon(s) which CURLOPT_USERPWD doesn't fully support.
2008-10-08Created test cases 1080 and 1081 to reproduce a problem ofDan Fandrich
CURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL leaking memory and returning incorrect results when two URLs are requested. Reported by vmpdemo in bug #2152270
2008-10-07Changed the handling of read/write errors in Curl_perform() to allow aDan Fandrich
a fresh connection to be made in such cases and the request retransmitted. This should fix test case 160. Added test case 1079 in an attempt to test a similar connection dropping scenario, but as a race condition, it's hard to test reliably.
2008-10-07- Fixed CURLINFO_PRIMARY_IP: When libcurl created a connection to host A thenDaniel Stenberg
the app re-used the handle to do a connection to host B and then again re-used the handle to host A, it would not update the info with host A's IP address (due to the connection being re-used) but it would instead report the info from host B.

2008-10-01"make clean" now cleans out the docs and tests directories, too.Dan Fandrich
2008-09-30- The libcurl FTP code now returns CURLE_REMOTE_FILE_NOT_FOUND error when SIZEDaniel Stenberg
gets a 550 response back for the cases where a download (or NOBODY) is wanted. It still allows a 550 as response if the SIZE is used as part of an upload process (like if resuming an upload is requested and the file isn't there before the upload). I also modified the FTP test server and a few test cases accordingly to match this modified behavior.
2008-09-29- Daniel Egger provided a patch that allows you to disable proxy support inDaniel Stenberg
libcurl to somewhat reduce the size of the binary. Run configure --disable-proxy.
2008-09-29Moved all signal-based name resolution timeout handling into a single newDan Fandrich
Curl_resolv_timeout function to reduce coupling.

2008-09-24Make sure not to dereference the wrong UrlState proto union member whenDan Fandrich
switching from one protocol to another in a single request (e.g. redirecting from HTTP to FTP as in test 1055) by resetting state.expect100header before every request.
2008-09-23- Introducing Jamie Lokier's function for date to epoch conversion used in theDaniel Stenberg
date parser function. This makes our function less dependent on system- provided functions and instead we do all the magic ourselves. We also no longer depend on the TZ environment variable.
2008-09-23- Rob Crittenden brought a patch to "add some locking for thread-safety to NSSDaniel Stenberg
implementation".
2008-09-22- Made the SOCKS code use the new Curl_read_plain() function to fix the bugDaniel Stenberg
Markus Moeller reported: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2008-09/0016.html - recv() errors other than those equal to EAGAIN now cause proper CURLE_RECV_ERROR to get returned. This made test case 160 fail so I've now disabled it until we can figure out another way to exercise that logic.
2008-09-22- Michael Goffioul filed bug report #2107377 "Problem with mutli + GnuTLS +Daniel Stenberg
proxy" (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2107377) that showed how a multi interface using program didn't work when built with GnuTLS and a CONNECT request was done over a proxy (basically test 502 over a proxy to a HTTPS site). It turned out the ssl connect function would get called twice which caused the second call to fail.

that memdebug.h is included in the test programs.

Also, leave the existing SIGALRM handler alone if the timeout is too small to handle.

2008-09-08Dmitry Kurochkin fixed pipelining over proxy using the multi interfaceDaniel Stenberg
2008-09-08- Stefan Krause pointed out that libcurl would wrongly send away cookies toDaniel Stenberg
sites in cases where the cookie clearly has a very old expiry date. The condition was simply that libcurl's date parser would fail to convert the date and it would then count as a (timed-based) match. Starting now, a missed date due to an unsupported date format or date range will now cause the cookie to not match.
2008-09-05Improved the logic the decides whether to use HTTP 1.1 features or not in aDan Fandrich
request. Detect cases where an upload must be sent chunked and the server supports only HTTP 1.0 and return CURLE_UPLOAD_FAILED.
2008-09-05- Martin Drasar provided the CURLOPT_POSTREDIR patch. It renamesDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_POST301 (but adds a define for backwards compatibility for you who don't define CURL_NO_OLDIES). This option allows you to now also change the libcurl behavior for a HTTP response 302 after a POST to not use GET in the subsequent request (when CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION is enabled). I edited the patch somewhat before commit. The curl tool got a matching --post302 option. Test case 1076 was added to verify this.
2008-09-05- Introducing CURLOPT_CERTINFO and the corresponding CURLINFO_CERTINFO. ByDaniel Stenberg
enabling this feature with CURLOPT_CERTINFO for a request using SSL (HTTPS or FTPS), libcurl will gather lots of server certificate info and that info can then get extracted by a client after the request has completed with curl_easy_getinfo()'s CURLINFO_CERTINFO option. Linus Nielsen Feltzing helped me test and smoothen out this feature. Unfortunately, this feature currently only works with libcurl built to use OpenSSL. This feature was sponsored by networking4all.com - thanks!
2008-09-05- Dmitriy Sergeyev pointed out that curl_easy_pause() didn't unpause properlyDaniel Stenberg
during certain conditions. I also changed this code to use realloc() based on Daniel Fandrich's suggestion.
