2013-11-12darwinssl: PKCS#12 import feature now requires Lion or laterNick Zitzmann
It turns out that some of the constants necessary to make this feature work are missing from Snow Leopard's Security framework even though they are defined in the headers. Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2013-11/0076.html Reported by: myriachan
2013-11-12curl_easy_setopt: Added the ability to set the login options separatelySteve Holme
Rather than set the authentication options as part of the login details specified in the URL, or via the older CURLOPT_USERPWD option, added a new libcurl option to allow the login options to be set separately.

2013-10-15SSL: protocol version can be specified more preciselyGergely Nagy
CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_0, CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_1, CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_2 enum values are added to force exact TLS version (CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1 means TLS 1.x). axTLS: axTLS only supports TLS 1.0 and 1.1 but it cannot be set that only one of these should be used, so we don't allow the new enum values. darwinssl: Added support for the new enum values. SChannel: Added support for the new enum values. CyaSSL: Added support for the new enum values. Bug: The original CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1 value enables only TLS 1.0 (it did the same before this commit), because CyaSSL cannot be configured to use TLS 1.0-1.2. GSKit: GSKit doesn't seem to support TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2, so we do not allow those values. Bugfix: There was a typo that caused wrong SSL versions to be passed to GSKit. NSS: TLS minor version cannot be set, so we don't allow the new enum values. QsoSSL: TLS minor version cannot be set, so we don't allow the new enum values. OpenSSL: Added support for the new enum values. Bugfix: The original CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1 value enabled only TLS 1.0, now it enables 1.0-1.2. Command-line tool: Added command line options for the new values.

2013-09-20pop3: Added basic SASL XOAUTH2 supportSteve Holme
Added the ability to use an XOAUTH2 bearer token [RFC6750] with POP3 for authentication using RFC6749 "OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework". The bearer token is expected to be valid for the user specified in conn->user. If CURLOPT_XOAUTH2_BEARER is defined and the connection has an advertised auth mechanism of "XOAUTH2", the user and access token are formatted as a base64 encoded string and sent to the server as "AUTH XOAUTH2 <bearer token>".

2013-07-18CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION: introducing a new progress callbackDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION is now the preferred progress callback function and CURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION is considered deprecated. This new callback uses pure 'curl_off_t' arguments to pass on full resolution sizes. It otherwise retains the same characteristics: the same call rate, the same meanings for the arguments and the return code is used the same way. The progressfunc.c example is updated to show how to use the new callback for newer libcurls while supporting the older one if built with an older libcurl or even built with a newer libcurl while running with an older.

Also added a (correctly-escaped) backslash to the autoexec.bat example file and a new Windows character device name with a colon as examples of other characters that are special and potentially dangerous (this reverts and reworks commit 7d8d2a54).
2013-06-03curl_multi_wait: reduce timeout if the multi handle wants toDaniel Stenberg
If the multi handle's pending timeout is less than what is passed into this function, it will now opt to use the shorter time anyway since it is a very good hint that the handle wants to process something in a shorter time than what otherwise would happen. curl_multi_wait.3 was updated accordingly to clarify This is the reason for bug #1224 Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1224 Reported-by: Andrii Moiseiev

2013-04-28DOCS: Corrected line length of recent Secure Transport changesSteve Holme
2013-04-27darwinssl: add TLS crypto authenticationNick Zitzmann
Users using the Secure Transport (darwinssl) back-end can now use a certificate and private key to authenticate with a site using TLS. Because Apple's security system is based around the keychain and does not have any non-public function to create a SecIdentityRef data structure from data loaded outside of the Keychain, the certificate and private key have to be loaded into the Keychain first (using the certtool command line tool or the Security framework's C API) before we can find it and use it.

2013-03-13Multiple pipelines and limiting the number of connections.Linus Nielsen Feltzing
Introducing a number of options to the multi interface that allows for multiple pipelines to the same host, in order to optimize the balance between the penalty for opening new connections and the potential pipelining latency. Two new options for limiting the number of connections: CURLMOPT_MAX_HOST_CONNECTIONS - Limits the number of running connections to the same host. When adding a handle that exceeds this limit, that handle will be put in a pending state until another handle is finished, so we can reuse the connection. CURLMOPT_MAX_TOTAL_CONNECTIONS - Limits the number of connections in total. When adding a handle that exceeds this limit, that handle will be put in a pending state until another handle is finished. The free connection will then be reused, if possible, or closed if the pending handle can't reuse it. Several new options for pipelining: CURLMOPT_MAX_PIPELINE_LENGTH - Limits the pipeling length. If a pipeline is "full" when a connection is to be reused, a new connection will be opened if the CURLMOPT_MAX_xxx_CONNECTIONS limits allow it. If not, the handle will be put in a pending state until a connection is ready (either free or a pipe got shorter). CURLMOPT_CONTENT_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE - A pipelined connection will not be reused if it is currently processing a transfer with a content length that is larger than this. CURLMOPT_CHUNK_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE - A pipelined connection will not be reused if it is currently processing a chunk larger than this. CURLMOPT_PIPELINING_SITE_BL - A blacklist of hosts that don't allow pipelining. CURLMOPT_PIPELINING_SERVER_BL - A blacklist of server types that don't allow pipelining. See the curl_multi_setopt() man page for details.
