2009-06-10Adjusted to take in account that...Yang Tse
With the curl memory tracking feature decoupled from the debug build feature, CURLDEBUG and DEBUGBUILD preprocessor symbol definitions are used as follows: CURLDEBUG used for curl debug memory tracking specific code (--enable-curldebug) DEBUGBUILD used for debug enabled specific code (--enable-debug)

2009-05-11split off curl_multi_socket_action() into its own separate man page as this isDaniel Stenberg
the function we should use, while both curl_multi_socket() and curl_multi_socket_all() should be killed!

2009-05-11TELNET transfers and SOCKS handshakes are blocking tooDaniel Stenberg
2009-05-11Added KNOWN_BUGS #65, and marked it for TODO in the _next_ release as I'mDaniel Stenberg
not in the mood enough to fight this now. 65. When doing FTP over a socks proxy or CONNECT through HTTP proxy and the multi interface is used, libcurl will fail if the (passive) TCP connection for the data transfer isn't more or less instant as the code does not properly wait for the connect to be confirmed. See test case 564 for a first shot at a test case.

for conversion to later VS versions.
2009-05-07- Man page *roff problems fixed thanks to input from Colin Watson. ProblemsDaniel Stenberg
reported in the Debian package.

2009-05-04Philippe Vaucher reported this typoDaniel Stenberg
2009-05-03Added and disabled test case 563 which shows KNOWN_BUGS #59. The bugDan Fandrich
report failed to mention that a proxy must be used to reproduce it.
2009-05-01Jose Goncalves fixed my crappy spelling!Daniel Stenberg
2009-04-30- I was going to fix issue #59 in KNOWN_BUGSDaniel Stenberg
If the CURLOPT_PORT option is used on an FTP URL like "ftp://example.com/file;type=A" the ";type=A" is stripped off. I added test case 562 to verify, only to find out that I couldn't repeat this bug so I hereby consider it not a bug anymore!

2009-04-28- Bug report #2709004 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2709004) by TimDaniel Stenberg
Chen pointed out how curl couldn't upload with resume when reading from a pipe. This ended up with the introduction of a new return code for the CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION callback that basically says that the seek failed but that libcurl may try to resolve the situation anyway. In our case this means libcurl will attempt to instead read that much data from the stream instead of seeking and that way curl can now upload with resume when data is read from a stream!

2009-04-23- bug report #2779245 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2779245) by RainerDaniel Stenberg
Koenig pointed out that the man page didn't tell that the *_proxy environment variables can be specified lower case or UPPER CASE and the lower case takes precedence,

2009-04-1863. When CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY is used, the handle cannot reliably be re-usedDaniel Stenberg
for any further requests or transfers. The work-around is then to close that handle with curl_easy_cleanup() and create a new. Some more details: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2009-04/0300.html

"pointer to a char pointer".
2009-04-07clarified after chat in #curlDaniel Stenberg
2009-04-06- I clarified in the docs that CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION should return 0 on successDaniel Stenberg
and 1 on fatal errors. Previously it only mentioned non-zero on fatal errors. This is a slight change in meaning, but it follows what we've done elsewhere before and it opens up for LOTS of more useful return codes whenever we can think of them...

2009-03-02- David Kierznowski notified us about a security flawDaniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/docs/adv_20090303.html also known as CVE-2009-0037) in which previous libcurl versions (by design) can be tricked to access an arbitrary local/different file instead of a remote one when CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION is enabled. This flaw is now fixed in this release together this the addition of two new setopt options for controlling this new behavior: o CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS controls what protocols libcurl is allowed to follow to when CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION is enabled. By default, this option excludes the FILE and SCP protocols and thus you nee to explicitly allow them in your app if you really want that behavior. o CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS controls what protocol(s) libcurl is allowed to fetch using the primary URL option. This is useful if you want to allow a user or other outsiders control what URL to pass to libcurl and yet not allow all protocols libcurl may have been built to support.

2009-02-23- After a bug reported by James Cheng I've made curl_easy_getinfo() forDaniel Stenberg
CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_DOWNLOAD and CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD return -1 if the sizes aren't know. Previously these returned 0, make it impossible to detect the difference between actually zero and unknown.

2009-02-23- I renamed everything in the windows builds files that used the name 'curllib'Daniel Stenberg
to the proper 'libcurl' as clearly this caused confusion.
