2007-11-07Add a call to curl_global_cleanup to show how to do a proper shutdown.Dan Fandrich
2007-11-05Andres Garcia made it build and run on windowsDaniel Stenberg
2007-11-05I check the code right now and while() and if() are in majority over while ()Daniel Stenberg
and if () so the rule is from now on => no space before the parenthesis.
2007-10-30added new people from the 7.17.1 announcementDaniel Stenberg
2007-10-26mention --static-libs as added in 7.17.1Daniel Stenberg
2007-10-25Added the --static-libs option to curl-configDan Fandrich
2007-10-15Mention first version with CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS.Dan Fandrich
Don't confuse NUL with NULL.
2007-10-15Updated minimum libcurl sizeDan Fandrich
2007-10-15Fix dynamic CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS bug: back to static.Patrick Monnerat
CURLOPT_COPYPOSTFIELDS option added for dynamic. Fix some OS400 features.
2007-10-13Chris Leighton:Daniel Stenberg
My understanding is that we use "number" for discrete variables and "amount" for continuous variables. So you can say "The amount of flour required depends on..." or, "Last night I consumed a large amount of beer!". And, "That tank contains a large number of fish" or, "Over the week I consumed a number of cases of beer." I think that features are discrete, so the man page would read "...the number of features will make your head spin!".
2007-10-09Documented error codes 77-80, and fixed the one for 60.Dan Fandrich
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.
2007-10-09Michal Marek removed the no longer existing return codes from the curl.1Daniel Stenberg
man page.
2007-10-07Known bug #47, which confused libcurl if doing NTLM auth over a proxy withDaniel Stenberg
a response that was larger than 16KB is now improved slightly so that now the restriction at 16KB is for the headers only and it should be a rare situation where the response-headers exceed 16KB. Thus, I consider #47 fixed and the header limitation is now known as known bug #48.
2007-10-05add url to the wikipedia article for a longer descriptionDaniel Stenberg
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.
2007-10-04The new file docs/libcurl/ABI describes how we view ABI breakages, sonameDaniel Stenberg
bumps and what the version number's significance to all that is.
2007-10-03people from the 7.17.0 announcementDaniel Stenberg
2007-10-03I renamed the CURLE_SSL_PEER_CERTIFICATE error code toDaniel Stenberg
CURLE_PEER_FAILED_VERIFICATION (standard CURL_NO_OLDIES style), and made this return code get used by the previous SSH MD5 fingerprint check in case it fails.
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.
2007-10-02known bug #46: chunked-encoded CONNECT responses from a http proxy now works.Daniel Stenberg
Added test case 1008 to verify. Note that #47 is still there.
2007-10-02document --post301, based on the phrasing in curl_easy_setopt.3 forDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_POST301 written by Philip Langdale
2007-10-02CURLOPT_POST301 section, added by Philip LangdaleDaniel Stenberg
2007-09-25a new Lua binding and I shortened the wording on several bindings by cuttingDaniel Stenberg
out "written"
2007-09-24Immanuel Gregoire fixed KNOWN_BUGS #44: --ftp-method nocwd did not handleDaniel Stenberg
URLs ending with a slash properly (it should list the contents of that directory). Test case 351 brought back and also test 1010 was added.
2007-09-24Bad use of "its" replaceed with a rephrase. I noticed this flaw thanks to theDaniel Stenberg
Debian bug report http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=443734
2007-09-21--proxy-negotiate is added in 7.17.1Daniel Stenberg
2007-09-21Mark Davies fixed Negotiate authentication over proxy, and also introducedDaniel Stenberg
the --proxy-negotiate command line option to allow a user to explicitly select it.
2007-09-20reformatted to be similar to the FAQ to make it look nicer on the site:Daniel Stenberg

2007-09-20fix bad linkDaniel Stenberg
2007-09-18Rob Crittenden provided an NSS update with the following highlights:Daniel Stenberg
o It looks for the NSS database first in the environment variable SSL_DIR, then in /etc/pki/nssdb, then it initializes with no database if neither of those exist. o If the NSS PKCS#11 libnspsem.so driver is available then PEM files may be loaded, including the ca-bundle. If it is not available then only certificates already in the NSS database are used. o Tries to detect whether a file or nickname is being passed in so the right thing is done o Added a bit of code to make the output more like the OpenSSL module, including displaying the certificate information when connecting in verbose mode o Improved handling of certificate errors (expired, untrusted, etc) The libnsspem.so PKCS#11 module is currently only available in Fedora 8/rawhide. Work will be done soon to upstream it. The NSS module will work with or without it, all that changes is the source of the certificates and keys.

2007-09-03added some comments for MingW32 builds.Gunter Knauf
2007-09-01bash is not required when compiling under MinixDan Fandrich
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)
