2008-07-21when recvfrom prototype uses a void pointer for arguments 2, 5 or 6 this willYang Tse
now cause the definition of RECVFROM_TYPE_ARG2_IS_VOID, RECVFROM_TYPE_ARG5_IS_VOID or RECVFROM_TYPE_ARG6_IS_VOID, as appropriate.
2008-07-17RECVFROM_TYPE_ARG2, RECVFROM_TYPE_ARG5 and RECVFROM_TYPE_ARG6 are now definedYang Tse
to the data type pointed by its respective argument and not the pointer type.
2008-07-16Configure process now checks availability of recvfrom() socket function andYang Tse
finds out its return type and the types of its arguments. Added definitions for non-configure systems config files, and introduced macro sreadfrom which will be used on udp sockets as a recvfrom() wrapper.
2008-07-16Improved configure detection of number of arguments for getservbyport_rYang Tse
2008-07-15Allow --enable-largefile and --disable-largefile configurations.Yang Tse
Configure process no longer needs nor checks size of curl_off_t. Library will now be built with _REENTRANT symbol defined.
2008-07-03- Phil Blundell: If you ask ares_gethostbyname() to do an AF_INET6 lookup andDaniel Stenberg
the target host has only A records, it automatically falls back to an AF_INET lookup and gives you the A results. However, if the target host has a CNAME record, this behaviour is defeated since the original query does return some data even though ares_parse_aaa_reply() doesn't consider it relevant. Here's a small patch to make it behave the same with and without the CNAME.
2008-07-02fallback to gettimeofday when monotonic clock is unavailable at run-timeYang Tse
2008-06-30- As was pointed out to me by Andreas Schuldei, the MAXHOSTNAMELEN define isDaniel Stenberg
not posix or anything and thus c-ares failed to build on hurd (and possibly elsewhere). The define was also somewhat artificially used in the windows port. Now, I instead rewrote the use of gethostbyname to enlarge the host name buffer in case of need and totally avoid the use of the MAXHOSTNAMELEN define. I thus also removed the defien from the namser.h file where it was once added for the windows build. I also fixed init_by_defaults() function to not leak memory in case if error.
2008-06-09fix pkg-config reporting of private libraries needed for static linkingYang Tse
2008-05-30Brad House fixed a missing header file inclusion in adig sample programYang Tse
2008-05-291.5.2Daniel Stenberg
2008-05-13- Introducing millisecond resolution support for the timeout option. SeeDaniel Stenberg
ares_init_options()'s ARES_OPT_TIMEOUTMS.
2008-05-09Use monotonic time source if available.Yang Tse
2008-05-07- Sebastian made c-ares able to return all PTR-records when doing reverseDaniel Stenberg
lookups. It is not common practice to have multiple PTR-Records for a single IP, but its perfectly legal and some sites have those.
2008-05-07- Doug Goldstein provided a configure patch: updates autoconf 2.13 usage toDaniel Stenberg
autoconf 2.57 usage (which is the version you have specified as the minimum version). It's a minor change but it does clean up some warnings with newer autoconf (specifically 2.62).
2008-05-05Improved parsing of resolver configuration filesYang Tse
2008-04-04- Alexey Simak fixed the VC dsp file by adding the missing source fileDaniel Stenberg
ares_expand_string.c
2008-04-04Alexey Simak made adig support NAPTR recordsDaniel Stenberg
2008-04-04Eino Tuominen improved the code when a file is used to seed the randomizerDaniel Stenberg
2007-12-11Added acountry.c.Gisle Vanem
2007-12-03 Erik Kline cleaned up ares_gethostbyaddr.c:next_lookup() somewhatDaniel Stenberg
2007-12-03Brad Spencer fixed the configure script to assume that there's noDaniel Stenberg
/dev/urandom when built cross-compiled as then the script cannot check for it.
2007-11-21and we start on 1.5.2!Daniel Stenberg
2007-11-21changeDaniel Stenberg
2007-10-02Avoid a segfault when generating a DNS "Transaction ID" in internalYang Tse
function init_id_key() under low memory conditions.
2007-10-01ares_strerror() segfaulted if the input error number was out of the currentlyDaniel Stenberg
supported range.
2007-09-28today's modifications by Steinar and meDaniel Stenberg
2007-09-22Steinar H. Gunderson fixed: Correctly clear sockets from the fd_set on inDaniel Stenberg
several functions (write_tcp_data, read_tcp_data, read_udp_packets) so that if it fails and the socket is closed the following code doesn't try to use the file descriptor.
2007-09-22Steinar H. Gunderson modified c-ares to now also do to DNS retries even whenDaniel Stenberg
TCP is used since there are several edge cases where it still makes sense.
2007-09-22Brad House provided a fix for ares_save_options(): Apparently I overlookedDaniel Stenberg
something with the ares_save_options() where it would try to do a malloc(0) when no options of that type needed to be saved. On most platforms, this was fine because malloc(0) doesn't actually return NULL, but on AIX it does, so ares_save_options would return ARES_ENOMEM.
2007-07-14added Vlad's entire description of his valgrind fixDaniel Stenberg
2007-07-14Vlad Dinulescu fixed two outstanding valgrind reportsDaniel Stenberg
2007-06-081.4.0 prepsDaniel Stenberg
2007-06-05the revertDaniel Stenberg
2007-06-02Brad Spencer found and fixed three flaws in the code, found with the newDaniel Stenberg
gcc 4.2.0 warning: -Waddress
2007-06-02Brad House fixed VS2005 compiler warnings due to time_t being 64bit.Daniel Stenberg
He also made recent Microsoft compilers use _strdup() instead of strdup().
2007-06-02Ashish Sharma provided a patch for supporting multiple entries in theDaniel Stenberg
/etc/hosts file. Patch edited for coding style and functionality by me (Daniel).
2007-05-30Shmulik Regev brought cryptographically secure transaction IDsDaniel Stenberg
2007-05-30Brad House added ares_save_options() and ares_destroy_options() that can beDaniel Stenberg
used to keep options for later re-usal when ares_init_options() is used.
2007-05-30added ares_process_fd() to allow applications to ask for processing onDaniel Stenberg
specific sockets and thus avoiding select() and associated functions/macros. This function will be used by upcoming libcurl releases for this very reason. It also made me export the ares_socket_t type in the public ares.h header file, since ares_process_fd() uses that type for two of the arguments.
2007-05-25Ravi Pratap fixed a flaw in the init_by_resolv_conf() function for windowsDaniel Stenberg
that could cause it to return a bad return code.
2007-04-16ares_getopt() command-line parser function does not belong to actualYang Tse
c-ares library. It is just a convinience source code helper function for use in example programs adig.c and ahost.c
2007-02-19Vlad Dinulescu added ares_parse_ns_reply()Daniel Stenberg
2007-02-13Fix c-ares failing to get the search sequence of /etc/hosts andYang Tse
DNS from /etc/nsswitch.conf, /etc/host.conf or /etc/svc.conf when /etc/resolv.conf did not exist or was unable to read it.
2006-11-22Michael Wallner fixed this problem: When I set domains in the optionsDaniel Stenberg
struct, and there are domain/search entries in /etc/resolv.conf, the domains of the options struct will be overridden.
