2008-01-145.3 support FF3 sqlite cookie filesDaniel Stenberg
2008-01-12Eric Landes provided the patch (edited by me) that introduces theDaniel Stenberg
--keepalive-time to curl to set the keepalive probe interval. I also took the opportunity to rename the recently added no-keep-alive option to no-keepalive to keep a consistent naming and to avoid getting two dashes in these option names. Eric also provided an update to the man page for the new option.
2008-01-11Daniel Egger made CURLOPT_RANGE work on file:// URLs the very same way itDaniel Stenberg
already worked for FTP:// URLs
2008-01-10Georg Lippitsch brought CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION and CURLOPT_SEEKDATA to allowDaniel Stenberg
libcurl to seek in a given input stream. This is particularly important when doing upload resumes when there's already a huge part of the file present remotely. Before, and still if this callback isn't used, libcurl will read and through away the entire file up to the point to where the resuming begins (which of course can be a slow opereration depending on file size, I/O bandwidth and more). This new function will also be preferred to get used instead of the CURLOPT_IOCTLFUNCTION for seeking back in a stream when doing multi-stage HTTP auth with POST/PUT.
2008-01-08added the --retry problems mention on the curl-library list todayDaniel Stenberg
2008-01-08Introducing curl_easy_pause() and new magic return codes for both the readDaniel Stenberg
and the write callbacks that now can make a connection's reading and/or writing get paused.
2008-01-05Based on further discussion on curl-library, I reverted yesterday's SOCKS5Daniel Stenberg
code to instead introduce support for a new proxy type called CURLPROXY_SOCKS5_HOSTNAME that is used to send the host name to the proxy instead of IP address and there's thus no longer any need for a new curl_easy_setopt() option. The default SOCKS5 proxy is again back to sending the IP address to the proxy. The new curl command line option for enabling sending host name to a SOCKS5 proxy is now --socks5-hostname.
2008-01-04Based on Maxim Perenesenko's patch, we now do SOCKS5 operations and let theDaniel Stenberg
proxy do the host name resolving and only if --socks5ip (or CURLOPT_SOCKS5_RESOLVE_LOCAL) is used we resolve the host name locally and pass on the IP address only to the proxy.
2008-01-0414.3 extend CURLOPT_SOCKOPTFUNCTION prototypeDaniel Stenberg
(for next SONAME bump)
2008-01-02Richard Atterer brought a patch that added support for SOCKS4a proxies, whichDaniel Stenberg
is an inofficial PROXY4 variant that sends the hostname to the proxy instead of the resolved address (which is already supported by SOCKS5). --socks4a is the curl command line option for it and CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE can now be set to CURLPROXY_SOCKS4A as well.
2007-12-27--libcurl was added in 7.16.1, a useful informationDaniel Stenberg
2007-12-14-u addition: If you just give the user name (without entering a colon) curlDaniel Stenberg
will prompt for a password. Denis Bredelet pointed out!
2007-12-12Gilles Blanc made the curl tool enable SO_KEEPALIVE for the connections andDaniel Stenberg
added the --no-keep-alive option that can disable that on demand.
2007-12-11clarify that the CURLMOPT_TIMERFUNCTION callback can pass in 0 and -1 as legalDaniel Stenberg
values and what they mean
2007-12-10cut out the number of contributors from this file since it'll always be wrongDaniel Stenberg
2007-12-105.13 How do I stop an ongoing transfer?Daniel Stenberg
2007-12-09add in toc tooDaniel Stenberg
2007-12-09RTMP support?Daniel Stenberg
2007-12-09oops another bad numberingDaniel Stenberg
2007-12-09oops duplicate numberingDaniel Stenberg
2007-12-09slightly rephrasedDaniel Stenberg
2007-12-08reformat to FAQ/CONTRIBUTE style, for nicer web-look when I apply the magicDaniel Stenberg
script(s) on it online
2007-12-08cleanupDaniel Stenberg
2007-12-08mention how to enable chunked encoding for POSTsDaniel Stenberg
2007-12-06clarify that when curl_multi_timeout() returns -1 it just means that thereDaniel Stenberg
is no current timeout. It does not mean wait forever and it does not mean do not wait at all. It means there is no timeout value known at this point in time.
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!
2007-11-26more blurbDaniel Stenberg
2007-11-26slightly less outdatedDaniel Stenberg
2007-11-22Alessandro Vesely helped me improve the --data-urlencode's syntax, parserDaniel Stenberg
and documentation.
2007-11-20clarify somewhat what happens to some data when a share is set to be usedDaniel Stenberg
2007-11-20rephrasedDaniel Stenberg
2007-11-20ILE RPG binding: OS/400 specific and contained in source distributionPatrick Monnerat
2007-11-20Introuced --data-urlencode to the curl tool for easier url encoding of theDaniel Stenberg
data sent in a post.
2007-11-17Andres Garcia made the examples build fine on Windows (mingw + msys) whenDaniel Stenberg
the lib was built staticly.
2007-11-11new ruby binding, curl-multi version 0.1Daniel Stenberg
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.
