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
2007-04-01Matt 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.
2007-03-27New 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.
2007-03-25added Daniel JohnsonDaniel Stenberg
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.

2007-03-10Bryan HendersonDaniel Stenberg
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

2007-03-09- Robert Iakobashvili fixed CURLOPT_INTERFACE for IPv6.Daniel Stenberg
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)
2007-03-02- 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
2007-02-27HTTP Digest header parsing fixDaniel Stenberg
2007-02-25Two new mirrors, but the total amount of mirrors still don't go up very muchDaniel Stenberg
due to the frequent dying of mirrors...
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.
2007-02-21- 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
2007-02-20New FTP CCC functionality - adds passive and active mode to accomodate for ↵Linus Nielsen Feltzing
different server behaviour
2007-02-19Mention curl-config dependencies fix.Dan Fandrich
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.
2007-02-13ftp@example.com is now the new anonymous FTP password. I opted for 'ftp' onDaniel Stenberg
the left side of @ to make it short(er).
2007-02-12Rob Crittenden added support for NSS (Network Security Service) for theDaniel Stenberg
SSL/TLS layer. http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/
2007-02-12- Shmulik Regev fixed so that the final CRLF of HTTP response headers are sentDaniel Stenberg
to the debug callback. - Shmulik Regev added CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING and CURLOPT_HTTP_TRANSFER_DECODING that if set to zero will disable libcurl's internal decoding of content or transfer encoded content. This may be preferable in cases where you use libcurl for proxy purposes or similar. The command line tool got a --raw option to disable both at once.
2007-02-12Jeff Pohlmeyer for his bug fix today, but too specific to get desrcibedDaniel Stenberg
as a bugfix here ;-)
2007-02-05- Michael Wallner provided a patch that adds support for CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MSDaniel Stenberg
and CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS that, as their names should hint, do the timeouts with millisecond resolution instead. The only restriction to that is the alarm() (sometimes) used to abort name resolves as that uses full seconds. I fixed the FTP response timeout part of the patch. Internally we now count and keep the timeouts in milliseconds but it also means we multiply set timeouts with 1000. The effect of this is that no timeout can be set to more than 2^31 milliseconds (on 32 bit systems), which equals 24.86 days. We probably couldn't before either since the code did *1000 on the timeout values on several places already.
2007-02-05cookie expiry date in several test cases set to year 2030/2035Yang Tse
2007-02-03- Yang Tse fixed the cookie expiry date in several test cases that started toDaniel Stenberg
fail since they used "1 feb 2007"... - Manfred Schwarb reported that socks5 support was broken and help us pinpoint the problem. The code now tries harder to use httproxy and proxy where apppropriate, as not all proxies are HTTP...
2007-02-02In testsuite, update test cookies expiration from 2007-Feb-1 to 2038-Feb-1Yang Tse

2007-01-29the user-agent fixDaniel Stenberg
2007-01-29- Michael Wallner reported that when doing a CONNECT with a custom User-AgentDaniel Stenberg
header, you got _two_ User-Agent headers in the CONNECT request...! Added test case 287 to verify the fix.
2007-01-28curl_easy_reset() now resets the CA bundle path correctlyDaniel Stenberg
2007-01-25- Added the --libcurl [file] option to curl. Append this option to anyDaniel Stenberg
ordinary curl command line, and you will get a libcurl-using source code written to the file that does the equivalent operation of what your command line operation does!

2007-01-16- Armel Asselin improved libcurl to behave a lot better when an easy handleDaniel Stenberg
doing an FTP transfer is removed from a multi handle before completion. The fix also fixed the "alive counter" to be correct on "premature removal" for all protocols.
2007-01-14- David McCreedy provided libcurl changes for doing HTTP communication onDaniel Stenberg
non-ASCII platforms. It does add some complexity, most notably with more #ifdefs, but I want to see this supported added and I can't see how we can add it without the extra stuff added.
2007-01-134GB download and cookielist "ALL" fixesDaniel Stenberg
2007-01-05- Linus Nielsen Feltzing introduced the --ftp-ssl-ccc command line option toDaniel Stenberg
curl that uses the new CURLOPT_FTP_SSL_CCC option in libcurl. If enabled, it will make libcurl shutdown SSL/TLS after the authentication is done on a FTP-SSL operation.
2007-01-03- David McCreedy made changes to allow base64 encoding/decoding to work onDaniel Stenberg
non-ASCII platforms.
