2007-02-23- Added warning outputs if the command line uses more than one of the optionsDaniel Stenberg
-v, --trace and --trace-ascii, since it could really confuse the user. Clarified this fact in the man page.
2007-02-22setting CURLOPT_PROXY to "" explicitly disables the use of a proxy (even ifDaniel Stenberg
there is an environment variable set)

2007-02-19Ian Turner fixed the libcurl.m4 macro's support for --with-libcurl.Daniel Stenberg
AC_PATH_PROG was not used properly.
2007-02-19- Robson Braga Araujo made passive FTP transfers work with SOCKS (both 4 andDaniel Stenberg
5).
2007-02-18- Jeff Pohlmeyer identified two problems: first a rather obscure problem withDaniel Stenberg
the multi interface and connection re-use that could make a curl_multi_remove_handle() ruin a pointer in another handle. The second problem was less of an actual problem but more of minor quirk: the re-using of connections wasn't properly checking if the connection was marked for closure.
2007-02-14Added --ftp-ssl-ccc issue.Dan Fandrich
2007-02-12Rob Crittenden added support for NSS (Network Security Service) for theDaniel Stenberg
SSL/TLS layer. http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/
2007-02-12- Shmulik Regev fixed so that the final CRLF of HTTP response headers are sentDaniel Stenberg
to the debug callback. - Shmulik Regev added CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING and CURLOPT_HTTP_TRANSFER_DECODING that if set to zero will disable libcurl's internal decoding of content or transfer encoded content. This may be preferable in cases where you use libcurl for proxy purposes or similar. The command line tool got a --raw option to disable both at once.
2007-02-11updated with recent info and cut out some of the more speculating parts andDaniel Stenberg
instead focus on explaining on how the libs differ from each other

2007-02-05- Michael Wallner provided a patch that adds support for CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MSDaniel Stenberg
and CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS that, as their names should hint, do the timeouts with millisecond resolution instead. The only restriction to that is the alarm() (sometimes) used to abort name resolves as that uses full seconds. I fixed the FTP response timeout part of the patch. Internally we now count and keep the timeouts in milliseconds but it also means we multiply set timeouts with 1000. The effect of this is that no timeout can be set to more than 2^31 milliseconds (on 32 bit systems), which equals 24.86 days. We probably couldn't before either since the code did *1000 on the timeout values on several places already.

platforms.
2007-01-26updated mingw build instructions for libssh2.Gunter Knauf
2007-01-25- Added the --libcurl [file] option to curl. Append this option to anyDaniel Stenberg
ordinary curl command line, and you will get a libcurl-using source code written to the file that does the equivalent operation of what your command line operation does!
2007-01-17clarify the INFILESIZE option(s)Daniel Stenberg
2007-01-09corrected exampleDaniel Stenberg
2007-01-08no suprise really, but it works fine on SH4 as well...Daniel Stenberg
2007-01-05- Linus Nielsen Feltzing introduced the --ftp-ssl-ccc command line option toDaniel Stenberg
curl that uses the new CURLOPT_FTP_SSL_CCC option in libcurl. If enabled, it will make libcurl shutdown SSL/TLS after the authentication is done on a FTP-SSL operation.
2007-01-02- Victor Snezhko helped us fix bug report #1603712Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1603712) (known bug #36) --limit-rate (CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE and CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE) are broken on Windows (since 7.16.0, but that's when they were introduced as previous to that the limiting logic was made in the application only and not in the library). It was actually also broken on select()-based systems (as apposed to poll()) but we haven't had any such reports. We now use select(), Sleep() or delay() properly to sleep a while without waiting for anything input or output when the rate limiting is activated with the easy interface.

2006-12-1937. Having more than one connection to the same host when doing NTLMDaniel Stenberg
authentication (with performs multiple "passes" and authenticates a connection rather than a HTTP request), and particularly when using the multi interface, there's a risk that libcurl will re-use a wrong connection when doing the different passes in the NTLM negotiation and thus fail to negotiate (in seemingly mysterious ways). 36. --limit-rate (CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE and CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE) are broken on Windows (since 7.16.0, but that's when they were introduced as previous to that the limiting logic was made in the application only and not in the library). This problem is easily repeated and it takes a Windows person to fire up his/hers debugger in order to fix. http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1603712
2006-12-14minor syntax mistakeDaniel Stenberg
2006-12-067.16.1 knows SFTP tooDaniel Stenberg
2006-12-06clarify --limit-rate somewhat: it might send away/receive chunks of date inDaniel Stenberg
temporarily higher speeds than requested, but the given limiting is considered "over time" and is an average
2006-12-05Sh Diao reported that CURLOPT_CLOSEPOLICY doesn't work, and indeed, there isDaniel Stenberg
no code present in the library that receives the option. Since it was not possible to use, we know that no current users exist and thus we simply removed it from the docs and made the code always use the default path of the code.

2006-11-03Olaf Stueben provided a patch that I edited slightly. It fixes the notoriousDaniel Stenberg
KNOWN_BUGS #25, which happens when a proxy closes the connection when libcurl has sent CONNECT, as part of an authentication negotiation. Starting now, libcurl will re-connect accordingly and continue the authentication as it should.

2006-10-25Fixed CURLOPT_FAILONERROR to return CURLE_HTTP_RETURNED_ERROR even for theDaniel Stenberg
case when 401 or 407 are returned, *IF* no auth credentials have been given. The CURLOPT_FAILONERROR option is not possible to make fool-proof for 401 and 407 cases when auth credentials is given, but we've now covered this somewhat more. You might get some amounts of headers transferred before this situation is detected, like for when a "100-continue" is received as a response to a POST/PUT and a 401 or 407 is received immediately afterwards. Added test 281 to verify this change.
2006-10-21Armel Asselin separated CA cert verification problems from problems withDaniel Stenberg
reading the (local) CA cert file to let users easier pinpoint the actual problem. CURLE_SSL_CACERT_BADFILE (77) is the new libcurl error code.
