2009-04-17As Jeff Pohlmeyer suggested: "pointer to 'char *'" is now instead put:Daniel Stenberg
"pointer to a char pointer".
2009-02-23- After a bug reported by James Cheng I've made curl_easy_getinfo() forDaniel Stenberg
CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_DOWNLOAD and CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD return -1 if the sizes aren't know. Previously these returned 0, make it impossible to detect the difference between actually zero and unknown.
2009-02-11- CURLINFO_CONDITION_UNMET was added to allow an application to get to know ifDaniel Stenberg
the condition in the previous request was unmet. This is typically a time condition set with CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION and was previously not possible to reliably figure out. From bug report #2565128 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2565128)
2008-10-16mention the openssl requirement for the certinfo dataDaniel Stenberg
2008-10-16Added CURLINFO_CERTINFODaniel Stenberg
2008-07-03Introcuding a new timestamp for curl_easy_getinfo():Daniel Stenberg
CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME. This is set with the "application layer" handshake/connection is completed (typically SSL, TLS or SSH). By using this you can figure out the application layer's own connect time. You can extract the time stamp using curl's -w option and the new variable named 'time_appconnect'. This feature was sponsored by Lenny Rachitsky at NeuStar.
2008-06-087.19.0 is nextDaniel Stenberg
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.
2008-04-30- 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.
2007-08-01Patrick Monnerat and I modified libcurl so that now it *copies* all stringsDaniel Stenberg
passed to it with curl_easy_setopt()! Previously it has always just refered to the data, forcing the user to keep the data around until libcurl is done with it. That is now history and libcurl will instead clone the given strings and keep private copies.

2006-02-11mention the CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY connectionDaniel Stenberg
2006-02-11Karl M added the CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY and CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET options thatDaniel Stenberg
an app can use to let libcurl only connect to a remote host and then extract the socket from libcurl. libcurl will then not attempt to do any transfer at all after the connect is done.

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.

2004-09-30- Larry Campbell added CURLINFO_OS_ERRNO to curl_easy_getinfo() that allows anDaniel Stenberg
app to retrieve the errno variable after a (connect) failure. It will make sense to provide this for more failures in a more generic way, but let's start like this.
