2013-03-12curl_global_init: accept the CURL_GLOBAL_ACK_EINTR flagZdenek Pavlas
The flag can be used in pycurl-based applications where using the multi interface would not be acceptable because of the performance lost caused by implementing the select() loop in python. Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1168 Downstream Bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/919127
2013-03-07DOCS: Corrected the IMAP URL grammar of the UIDVALIDITY parameterSteve Holme
2013-03-07DOCS: Added the list command to the IMAP URL sectionSteve Holme
Added examples of the list command and clarified existing example URLs following recent changes.
2013-02-26DOCS: Added the IMAP UIDVALIDITY property to the CURLOPT_URL sectionSteve Holme
2013-02-25DOCS: Corrected IMAP URL examples according to RFC5092Steve Holme
URL examples that included the UID weren't technically correct although would pass the curl parser.
2013-02-24DOCS: Corrected layout of POP3 and IMAP URL examplesSteve Holme
Corrected layout issues with the POP3 and IMAP URL examples introduced in commit cb3ae6894fb2.
2013-02-23DOCS: Updated CURLOPT_URL section following recent POP3 and IMAP changesSteve Holme
Updated the POP3 sub-section to refer to message ID rather than mailbox. Added an IMAP sub-section with example URLs depicting the specification of mailbox, uid and section.
2013-02-22libcurl documentation: clarifications and typosAlexander Klauer
* Elaborates on default values of some curl_easy_setopt() options. * Reminds the user to cast variadic arguments to curl_easy_setopt() to 'void *' where curl internally interprets them as such. * Clarifies the working of the CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION option for curl_easy_setopt(). * Fixes typo 'forth' → 'fourth'. * Elaborates on CURL_SOCKET_TIMEOUT. * Adds some missing periods. * Notes that the return value of curl_version() must not be passed to free().
2013-02-22libcurl documentation: updates HTML indexAlexander Klauer
* Adds several links to documentation of library functions which were missing. * Marks documentation of deprecated library functions "(deprecated)". * Removes spurious .html suffixes.
2013-02-18docs: schannel and darwinssl documentation improvementsNick Zitzmann
Schannel and darwinssl use the certificates built into the OS to do vert verification instead of bundles. darwinssl is thread-safe. Corrected typos in the NSS docs.

2012-11-23DOCS: Updated CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY to reflect usage in other protocolsSteve Holme
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
2012-10-09curl_multi_wait.3: style formatting mistakeDaniel Stenberg

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.
2012-09-01symbols-in-versions: new CURL_WAIT_* symbolsDaniel Stenberg

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

2012-06-04curl_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
