2012-11-06CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST: stop supporting the 1 valueDaniel Stenberg
After a research team wrote a document[1] that found several live source codes out there in the wild that misused the CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST option thinking it was a boolean, this change now bans 1 as a value and will make libcurl return error for it. 1 was never a sensible value to use in production but was introduced back in the days to help debugging. It was always documented clearly this way. 1 was never supported by all SSL backends in libcurl, so this cleanup makes the treatment of it unified. The report's list of mistakes for this option were all PHP code and while there's a binding layer between libcurl and PHP, the PHP team has decided that they have an as thin layer as possible on top of libcurl so they will not alter or specifically filter a 'TRUE' value for this particular option. I sympathize with that position. [1] = http://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2012/10/25/libcurl-claimed-to-be-dangerous/
2012-10-09curl_multi_wait: no wait if no descriptors to wait forDaniel Stenberg
This is a minor change in behavior after having been pointed out by Mark Tully and discussed on the list. Initially this case would internally call poll() with no sockets and a timeout which would equal a sleep for that specified time. Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2012-10/0076.html Reported by: Mark Tully

2012-10-08curl_multi_wait.3: renamed the last argument variable for clarityDaniel Stenberg
2012-09-16curl_multi_wait: Add parameter to return number of active socketsSara Golemon
Minor change to recently introduced function. BC breaking, but since curl_multi_wait() doesn't exist in any releases that should be fine.

2012-08-27libcurl-share.3: remove wrong info of what can be sharedDaniel Stenberg
"Currently you can only share DNS and/or COOKIE data" is incorrect since also SSL sessions can be shared. Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=3562261 Reported by: Joe Mason

2012-06-24DOCS: Added clarification to CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST for the POP3 protocolSteve Holme
Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2012-06/0302.html Reported by: Nagai H
2012-06-04curl_easy_setopt.3: proto updates + cleanupsDaniel Stenberg
- For all *FUNCTION options, they now all show the complete prototype in the description. Previously some of them would just refer to a typedef'ed function pointer in the curl.h header. - I made the phrasing of that "Pass a pointer to a function that matches the following prototype" the same for all *FUNCTION option descriptions. - I removed some uses of 'should'. I think I sometimes over-use this word as in many places I actually mean MUST or otherwise more specific and not-so-optional synonyms.
2012-05-27DOCS: Corrected the "Added in" version number for CURLOPT_MAIL_AUTHSteve Holme
Additionally corrected another RFC link that I missed yesterday.
2012-05-26DOCS: Fixed line spacing of authentication examples in CURLOPT_URLSteve Holme
2012-05-26DOCS: Changed domain names in various examples to example.comSteve Holme
Updated various references of real domain names to example.com as per RFC-2606.
2012-05-26DOCS: Fixed meaning of bit 2 in CURLOPT_POSTREDIRSteve Holme
Setting bit 2 for this value was documented as having a constant value defined as CURL_REDIR_POST_303 yet referenced a 302 request. Additionally corrected the meaning of CURL_REDIR_POST_ALL for all three bits and fixed problems with the bolding of keywords in this section.
2012-05-26DOCS: Standardised how RFCs are referenced.Steve Holme
Standardised how RFCs are referenced so that the website may autolink to the correct documentation on ietf.org. Additionally removed the one link to RFC3986 on curl.haxx.se.
2012-05-24DOCS: Added LDAP to the CURLOPT_URL sectionSteve Holme

2012-05-03Add note about default timeout in CURLOPT_TIMEOUTClaes Jakobsson
2012-04-05CURLOPT_POSTREDIR: also allow 303 to do POST on the redirected URLAndrei Cipu
As it turns out, some people do want that after all.
2012-04-01SSH: public key can now be an empty stringArmel Asselin
If an empty string is passed to CURLOPT_SSH_PUBLIC_KEYFILE, libcurl will pass no public key to libssh2 which then tries to compute it from the private key. This is known to work when libssh2 1.4.0+ is linked against OpenSSL.
2012-03-31DOCS: Added information regarding POP3 commands to CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUESTSteve Holme
2012-03-10CURLSSH_OPT_AUTH: documented it has no effectArmel Asselin

2012-02-23SMTP: Added support for returning SMTP response codesSteve Holme
Set the conn->data->info.httpcode variable in smtp_statemach_act() to allow Curl_getinfo() to return the SMTP response code via the CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE action.

2012-02-13s/7.24.1/7.25.0Daniel Stenberg
We will go straight to 7.25.0 due to the new additions
2012-02-09CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS: addedDaniel Stenberg
Allow an appliction to set libcurl specific SSL options. The first and only options supported right now is CURLSSLOPT_ALLOW_BEAST. It will make libcurl to disable any work-arounds the underlying SSL library may have to address a known security flaw in the SSL3 and TLS1.0 protocol versions. This is a reaction to us unconditionally removing that behavior after this security advisory: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/adv_20120124B.html ... it did however cause a lot of programs to fail because of old servers not liking this work-around. Now programs can opt to decrease the security in order to interoperate with old servers better.
2012-02-09add library support for tuning TCP_KEEPALIVEDave Reisner
This adds three new options to control the behavior of TCP keepalives: - CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPALIVE: enable/disable probes - CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPIDLE: idle time before sending first probe - CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPINTVL: delay between successive probes While not all operating systems support the TCP_KEEPIDLE and TCP_KEEPINTVL knobs, the library will still allow these options to be set by clients, silently ignoring the values.
