2007-12-02Michal Marek introduced CURLOPT_PROXY_TRANSFER_MODE which is used to controlDaniel Stenberg
the appending of the "type=" thing on FTP URLs when they are passed to a HTTP proxy. Some proxies just don't like that appending (which is done unconditionally in 7.17.1), and some proxies treat binary/ascii transfers better with the appending done!
2007-11-20clarify somewhat what happens to some data when a share is set to be usedDaniel Stenberg
2007-10-15Mention first version with CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS.Dan Fandrich
Don't confuse NUL with NULL.
2007-10-15Fix dynamic CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS bug: back to static.Patrick Monnerat
CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS option added for dynamic. Fix some OS400 features.
2007-10-09Add a paragraph about CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST not actually changing libcurl'sDaniel Stenberg
behavior, it only changes the actual request method keyword and this is not always what the user/app wants.
2007-10-05Alexey Pesternikov documented CURLOPT_OPENSOCKETDATA andDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_OPENSOCKETFUNCTION
2007-10-05Michael Wallner made the CULROPT_COOKIELIST option support a new magicDaniel Stenberg
string: "FLUSH". Using that will cause libcurl to flush its cookies to the CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR file.
2007-10-03Based on a patch brought by Johnny Luong, libcurl now offersDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_SSH_HOST_PUBLIC_KEY_MD5 and the curl tool --hostpubmd5. They both make the SCP or SFTP connection verify the remote host's md5 checksum of the public key before doing a connect, to reduce the risk of a man-in-the-middle attack.
2007-10-02CURLOPT_POST301 section, added by Philip LangdaleDaniel Stenberg
2007-08-31Renamed the CURLE_FTP_SSL_FAILED error code to CURLE_USE_SSL_FAILED.Dan Fandrich
Renamed the curl_ftpssl enum to curl_usessl and its enumerated constants, creating macros for backward compatibility.
2007-08-30Renamed several libcurl error codes and options to make them more generalDan Fandrich
and allow reuse by multiple protocols. Several unused error codes were removed. In all cases, macros were added to preserve source (and binary) compatibility with the old names. These macros are subject to removal at a future date, but probably not before 2009. An application can be tested to see if it is using any obsolete code by compiling it with the CURL_NO_OLDIES macro defined. Documented some newer error codes in libcurl-error(3)
2007-08-07Usage of the BCURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION callback is not recommended when usingDaniel Stenberg
the multi interface, but having the comment in here caused more questions than we fixed problems so I remove it now. It still works fine.
2007-08-02clarify that setting POSTFIELDS to NULL or "" is not enough to make a zero byteDaniel Stenberg
POST
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.
2007-07-20Document pwd as an sftp quote command for curl(1), and show it asDan Fandrich
lower case for consistency since sftp commands are case insensitive.
2007-07-18SFTP also supports PWDJames Housley
2007-07-18Added the list of sftp quote commands.Dan Fandrich
2007-07-11Added the first libcurl version to which the SSH options were added.Dan Fandrich
2007-07-02Fix problem with the indenting noticed by PavelJames Housley
2007-07-01mention the old nameDaniel Stenberg
2007-07-01Thomas J. Moore provided a patch that introduces Kerberos5 support inDaniel Stenberg
libcurl. This also makes the options change name to --krb (from --krb4) and CURLOPT_KRBLEVEL (from CURLOPT_KRB4LEVEL) but the old names are still
2007-06-27Add two new options for the SFTP/SCP/FILE protocols: CURLOPT_NEW_FILE_PERMSJames Housley
and CURLOPT_NEW_DIRECTORY_PERMS. These control the premissions for files and directories created on the remote server. CURLOPT_NEW_FILE_PERMS defaults to 0644 and CURLOPT_NEW_DIRECTORY_PERMS defaults to 0755
2007-06-13Update documentation to reflect SFTP's ability to create directories onJames Housley
upload. Some text provieded by Tom Regner
2007-05-30Added CURLMOPT_MAXCONNECTS which is a curl_multi_setopt() option for settingDaniel Stenberg
the maximum size of the connection cache maximum size of the multi handle.
2007-05-15Added support for quote commands before a transfer using SFTP and testDan Fandrich
case 614. Allow SFTP quote commands chmod, chown, chgrp to set a value of 0.
2007-05-08CURLE_FTP_COULDNT_STOR_FILE is now known as CURLE_UPLOAD_FAILED. This isDaniel Stenberg
because I just made SCP uploads return this value if the file size of the upload file isn't given with CURLOPT_INFILESIZE*. Docs updated to reflect this news, and a define for the old name was added to the public header file.
2007-05-03Fixed a few typos.Dan Fandrich
2007-05-03document the new 200alias behaviourDaniel 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.
2007-03-12RECV is for downloadDaniel Stenberg
2007-03-11reverted the pselect patch => http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2007-03/0100.htmlDaniel 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
2007-02-22setting CURLOPT_PROXY to "" explicitly disables the use of a proxy (even ifDaniel Stenberg
there is an environment variable set)
2007-02-20New FTP CCC functionality - adds passive and active mode to accomodate for ↵Linus Nielsen Feltzing
different server behaviour
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.
2007-02-05- 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.
2007-01-17clarify the INFILESIZE option(s)Daniel 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.
2006-12-21CURLOPT_CAPATH is OpenSSL-onlyDaniel Stenberg
2006-12-05Sh Diao reported that CURLOPT_CLOSEPOLICY doesn't work, and indeed, there isDaniel Stenberg
no code present in the library that receives the option. Since it was not possible to use, we know that no current users exist and thus we simply removed it from the docs and made the code always use the default path of the code.
2006-11-02mention the new optionsDaniel Stenberg
2006-10-25Fixed CURLOPT_FAILONERROR to return CURLE_HTTP_RETURNED_ERROR even for theDaniel Stenberg
case when 401 or 407 are returned, *IF* no auth credentials have been given. The CURLOPT_FAILONERROR option is not possible to make fool-proof for 401 and 407 cases when auth credentials is given, but we've now covered this somewhat more. You might get some amounts of headers transferred before this situation is detected, like for when a "100-continue" is received as a response to a POST/PUT and a 401 or 407 is received immediately afterwards. Added test 281 to verify this change.
2006-09-30Support for FTP third party transfers is now droppedDaniel Stenberg
2006-09-26Armel Asselin's fix for the RESUME_FROM docuDaniel Stenberg
2006-09-11- Fixed my breakage from earlier today so that doing curl_easy_cleanup() on aDaniel Stenberg
handle that is part of a multi handle first removes the handle from the stack. - Added CURLOPT_SSL_SESSIONID_CACHE and --no-sessionid to disable SSL session-ID re-use on demand since there obviously are broken servers out there that misbehave with session-IDs used.
2006-09-08Mention that CURLOPT_MAX_RECV/SEND* were added in 7.15.5Daniel Stenberg
2006-08-29David McCreedy added CURLOPT_SOCKOPTFUNCTION and CURLOPT_SOCKOPTDATA toDaniel Stenberg
allow applications to set their own socket options.
2006-08-23clarify the string syntax support in the CURLOPT_PROXY sectionDaniel Stenberg
2006-08-09option name spell fixDaniel Stenberg
