2008-08-06- mention curl_multi_socket_action() rather than the deprecatedDaniel Stenberg
curl_multi_socket() - don't claim that it has an argument named 'easy' because it doesn't!
2008-08-01Added support for --append on SFTP uploads. Unfortunately, OpenSSH doesn'tDan Fandrich
support this so it goes untested.
2008-08-01User names embedded in proxy URLs without a password were parsedDan Fandrich
incorrectly--the host name is treated as part of the user name and the port number becomes the password. This can be observed in test 279 (was KNOWN_ISSUE #54).
2008-07-31Fixed parsing of an IPv6 proxy address to support a scope identifier,Dan Fandrich
as well as IPv4 addresses in IPv6 format. Also, better handle the case of a malformatted IPv6 address (avoid empty and NULL strings).
2008-07-30Added IPv6 sectionDan Fandrich
2008-07-30- Phil Blundell added the CURLOPT_SCOPE option, as well as adjusted the URLDaniel Stenberg
parser to allow numerical IPv6-addresses to be specified with the scope given, as per RFC4007 - with a percent letter that itself needs to be URL escaped. For example, for an address of fe80::1234%1 the HTTP URL is: "http://[fe80::1234%251]/"
2008-07-30- Made the curl tool's -w option support the %{ssl_verify_result} variableDaniel Stenberg
2008-07-2956. When libcurl sends CURLOPT_POSTQUOTE commands when connected to a SFTPDaniel Stenberg
server using the multi interface, the commands are not being sent correctly and instead the connection is "cancelled" (the operation is considered done) prematurely. There is a half-baked (busy-looping) patch provided in the bug report but it cannot be accepted as-is. See http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2006544
2008-07-29Document that PKG_CONFIG_PATH is the preferred way to configure withDan Fandrich
OpenSSL.
2008-07-23Eliminated references to TRUE and FALSE since those identifiers aren'tDan Fandrich
defined by the libcurl API. Also changed curl_easy_setopt examples to pass longs where appropriate.
2008-07-23- I went over the curl_easy_setopt man page and replaced most references toDaniel Stenberg
non-zero with the fixed value of 1. We should strive at making options support '1' for enabling them mentioned explicitly, as that then will allow us for to extend them in the future without breaking older programs.
2008-07-23Simplified Minix compile instructions and added some special cases.Dan Fandrich
2008-07-15add comment for include pathsYang Tse
2008-07-14HTTP_ONLY definition check in lib/setup.h is now done once that configurationYang Tse
file has been included. In this way if symbol is defined in the config file it will no longer be ignored.
2008-07-11document the exit codes 82 and 83 that are new in 7.19.0Daniel Stenberg
2008-07-10(Added in the section for CURLOPT_DNS_CACHE_TIMEOUT, pointed out on theDaniel Stenberg
curl-library list on July 9th 2008 by Mathew Hounsell) NOTE: the name resolve functions of various libc implementations don't re-read name server information unless explicitly told so (by for example calling Ires_init(3). This may cause libcurl to keep using the older server even if DHCP has updated the server info, and this may look like a DNS cache issue to the casual libcurl-app user.
2008-07-10updated to match current realityDaniel Stenberg
2008-07-10s/muse/mustDaniel Stenberg
2008-07-10document --remote-name-allDaniel Stenberg
2008-07-08Fixed test 554 to pass the torture test.Dan Fandrich
2008-07-08Added libidn libs as needed. Added compilation of sendrecv.cGisle Vanem
and cookie_interface.c.
2008-07-03Introcuding a new timestamp for curl_easy_getinfo():Daniel Stenberg
CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME. This is set with the "application layer" handshake/connection is completed (typically SSL, TLS or SSH). By using this you can figure out the application layer's own connect time. You can extract the time stamp using curl's -w option and the new variable named 'time_appconnect'. This feature was sponsored by Lenny Rachitsky at NeuStar.
2008-07-01- Rolland Dudemaine provided fixes to get libcurl to build for the INTEGRITYDaniel Stenberg
operating system.
2008-06-30minor language fixDaniel Stenberg
2008-06-26let's try to maintain compatibility with NSS 3.11.xDaniel Stenberg
2008-06-12added the versions of a range of build tools that we want to remain to workDaniel Stenberg
2008-06-12My first attempt at documenting what we try to support and make curl run withDaniel Stenberg
in regard to C standard, third party libraries and operating systems etc.
2008-06-087.19.0 is nextDaniel Stenberg
2008-06-08the next release is now called 7.19.0Daniel Stenberg
2008-06-08- curl the tool now deals with its command line options somewhat differently!Daniel Stenberg
All boolean options (such as -O, -I, -v etc), both short and long versions, now always switch on/enable the option named. Using the same option multiple times thus make no difference. To switch off one of those options, you need to use the long version of the option and type --no-OPTION. Like to disable verbose mode you use --no-verbose! - Added --remote-name-all to curl, which if used changes the default for all given URLs to be dealt with as if -O is used. So if you want to disable that for a specific URL after --remote-name-all has been used, you muse use -o - or --no-remote-name.
2008-06-06- Axel Tillequin and Arnaud Ebalard added support for CURLOPT_ISSUERCERT, forDaniel Stenberg
OpenSSL, NSS and GnuTLS-built libcurls.
2008-06-06mention added in 7.18.3Daniel Stenberg
2008-06-06- Axel Tillequin and Arnaud Ebalard added support for CURLOPT_CRLFILE, forDaniel Stenberg
OpenSSL, NSS and GnuTLS-built libcurls.
2008-06-06- Added CURLINFO_PRIMARY_IP as a new information retrievable withDaniel Stenberg
curl_easy_getinfo. It returns a pointer to a string with the most recently used IP address. Modified test case 500 to also verify this feature. The implementing of this feature was sponsored by Lenny Rachitsky at NeuStar.
2008-06-04new contributors from the 7.18.2 releaseDaniel Stenberg
2008-05-29Added a new "13. Web Login" chapterDaniel Stenberg
2008-05-27Known bug #55, libcurl fails to build with MIT Kerberos for Windows (KfW)Yang Tse
due to KfW's library header files exporting symbols/macros that should be kept private to the KfW library. See ticket #5601 at http://krbdev.mit.edu/rt/
2008-05-26Added Haiku OS, sorted the list of i386 OSesDaniel Stenberg
2008-05-24Christopher Palow's multi interface docs updatesDaniel Stenberg
2008-05-24Nikolai Kondrashov provided a clarification for CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTIONDaniel Stenberg
2008-05-23Added some more to do items and a known bug.Dan Fandrich
2008-05-22Fixed a surprising number of example programs that were passing int argumentsDan Fandrich
to curl_easy_setopt instead of long.
2008-05-19change the code style to be more curlish, and changed some of the outputDaniel Stenberg
to be more descriptive and finally set VERBOSE mode to 1 by default
2008-05-16removed lots of warningsDaniel Stenberg
2008-05-15Included stdint.h to get the intptr_t type (needed on OpenBSD at least).Dan Fandrich
2008-05-12- Introducing curl_easy_send() and curl_easy_recv(). They can be used to sendDaniel Stenberg
and receive data over a connection previously setup with curl_easy_perform() and its CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY option. The sendrecv.c example was added to show how they can be used.
2008-05-09Internal time differences now use monotonic time source if available.Yang Tse
This also implies the removal of the winmm.lib dependency for WIN32.
2008-05-0153. SFTP busy-loop problem when doing SFTP uploads.Daniel Stenberg
2008-04-30Christian Vogt told us about OS21 inDaniel Stenberg
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-04/0443.html
2008-04-30- To make it easier for applications that want lots of magic stuff done onDaniel Stenberg
redirections and thus cannot use CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION easily, we now introduce the new CURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL option that lets applications extract the URL libcurl would've redirected to if it had been told to. This then enables the application to continue to that URL as it thinks is suitable, without having to re-implement the magic of creating the new URL from the Location: header etc. Test 1029 verifies it.
