2005-08-29Igor Polyakov fixed a rather nasty problem with the threaded name resolverDaniel Stenberg
for Windows, that could lead to an Access Violation when the multi interface was used due to an issue with how the resolver thread was and was not terminated.
2005-08-29Simon Josefson brought GNU GSS supportDaniel Stenberg
2005-08-24Toby Peterson added CURLOPT_IGNORE_CONTENT_LENGTH to the library, accessibleDaniel Stenberg
from the command line tool with --ignore-content-length. This will make it easier to download files from Apache 1.x (and similar) servers that are still having problems serving files larger than 2 or 4 GB. When this option is enabled, curl will simply have to wait for the server to close the connection to signal end of transfer. I wrote test case 269 that runs a simple test that this works.
2005-08-24valgrind version 3 renames the --logfile command line option to --log-file...Daniel Stenberg
2005-08-24Fixed CA cert verification using GnuTLS with the default bundle, whichDaniel Stenberg
previously failed due to GnuTLS not allowing x509 v1 CA certs by default.
2005-08-19Norbert Novotny had problems with FTPS and he helped me work out a patchDaniel Stenberg
that made curl run fine in his end. The key was to make sure we do the SSL/TLS negotiation immediately after the TCP connect is done and not after a few other commands have been sent like we did previously. I don't consider this change necessary to obey the standards, I think this server is pickier than what the specs allow it to be, but I can't see how this modified libcurl code can add any problems to those who are interpreting the standards more liberally.
2005-08-17handles expiry times in cookie files that go beyond 32 bits in sizeDaniel Stenberg
2005-08-17- Jeff Pohlmeyer found out that if you ask libcurl to load a cookiefile (withDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE), add a cookie (with CURLOPT_COOKIELIST), tell it to write the result to a given cookie jar and then never actually call curl_easy_perform() - the given file(s) to read was never read but the output file was written and thus it caused a "funny" result. - While doing some tests for the bug above, I noticed that Firefox generates large numbers (for the expire time) in the cookies.txt file and libcurl didn't treat them properly. Now it does.

2005-08-09Christopher R. Palmer fixed the offsets used for date parsings when the timeDaniel Stenberg
zone name of a daylight savings time was used. For example, PDT vs PDS. This flaw was introduced with the new date parser (11 sep 2004 - 7.12.2). Fortunately, no web server or cookie string etc should be using such time zone names thus limiting the effect of this bug.
2005-08-07Jon Grubbs filed bug report #1249962 which identified a problem with NTLM on aDaniel Stenberg
HTTP proxy if an FTP URL was given. libcurl now properly switches to pure HTTP internally when an HTTP proxy is used, even for FTP URLs. The problem would also occur with other multi-pass auth methods.
2005-08-07When curl is built with GnuTLS, curl-config didn't include "SSL" whenDaniel Stenberg
--features was used
2005-07-30correction and added new mirrorDaniel Stenberg
2005-07-27If any of the options CURLOPT_HTTPGET, CURLOPT_POST and CURLOPT_HTTPPOST isDaniel Stenberg
set to 1, CURLOPT_NOBODY will now automatically be set to 0.
2005-07-27Peteris Krumins added CURLOPT_COOKIELIST and CURLINFO_COOKIELIST, which is aDaniel Stenberg
simple interface to extracting and setting cookies in libcurl's internal "cookie jar". See the new cookie_interface.c example code.

2005-07-13Diego Casorran patches to make (lib)curl build fine on Amiga againDaniel Stenberg
2005-07-12mention the Rexx/CURL releaseDaniel Stenberg
2005-07-12Adrian Schuur added trailer support in the chunked encoding stream. TheDaniel Stenberg
trailer is then sent to the normal header callback/stream.
2005-07-05Gisle Vanem came up with a nice little work-around for bug #1230118. ItDaniel Stenberg
seems the Windows (MSVC) libc time functions may return data one hour off if TZ is not set and automatic DST adjustment is enabled. This made curl_getdate() return wrong value, and it also concerned internal cookie expirations etc.
2005-07-04mention the strerror_r detection fix in configureDaniel Stenberg
2005-07-03Andrew Bushnell provided enough info for me to tell that we badly needed toDaniel Stenberg
fix the CONNECT authentication code with multi-pass auth methods (such as NTLM) as it didn't previously properly ignore response-bodies - in fact it stopped reading after all response headers had been received. This could lead to libcurl sending the next request and reading the body from the first request as response to the second request. (I also renamed the function, which wasn't strictly necessary but...) The best fix would to once and for all make the CONNECT code use the ordinary request sending/receiving code, treating it as any ordinary request instead of the special-purpose function we have now. It should make it better for multi-interface too. And possibly lead to less code... Added test case 265 for this. It doesn't work as a _really_ good test case since the test proxy is too stupid, but the test case helps when running the debugger to verify.

2005-05-31Todd Kulesza reported a flaw in the proxy option, since a numerical IPv6Daniel Stenberg
address was not possible to use. It is now, but requires it written RFC2732-style, within brackets - which incidently is how you enter numerical IPv6 addresses in URLs. Test case 263 added to verify.
