2008-02-18moved sample program defines into separate Makefile.inc so that other ↵Gunter Knauf
makefiles can pick up the defines from there.
2008-02-18just mention in --cacert that curl normally has a default ca cert path built-inDaniel Stenberg
2008-02-18the ca-bundle is no longer shippedDaniel Stenberg
2008-02-18- We're no longer providing a very old ca-bundle in the curl tarball. You canDaniel Stenberg
get a fresh one downloaded and created with 'make ca-bundle' or you can get one from here => http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html if you want a fresh new one extracted from Mozilla's recent list of ca certs. The configure option --with-ca-bundle now lets you specify what file to use as default ca bundle for your build. If not specified, the configure script will check a few known standard places for a global ca cert to use.
2008-02-08fixed a typo.Gunter Knauf
2008-02-08and mention make ca-bundle in the 1.11 faq entry as wellDaniel Stenberg
2008-02-08for step 5, mention that we can now generate an own version locally if wantedDaniel Stenberg
instead of downloading it from the curl site
2008-02-07ca-bundle.crt documentational updates that more clearly describe the bundleDaniel Stenberg
ca-bundle.crt file as outdated and in need for replacement by anyone who wants to verify modern peers as the one we have is from year 2000!
2008-02-03threaded-ssl.c is a little example that does multi-threaded downloads fromDaniel Stenberg
HTTPS sites with OpenSSL-enabled libcurl (and pthreads) and thus do the thread-locking and things openssl-style.
2008-02-03it is stable now...Daniel Stenberg
2008-01-31bug 51 may possibly be fixed, and as such it is not a known bug anymore:Daniel Stenberg
51.Kevin Reed's reported problem with a proxy when doing CONNECT and it wants NTLM and close the connection to the initial CONNECT response: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1879375
2008-01-29- Dmitry Kurochkin fixed Curl_done() for pipelining, as it could previouslyDaniel Stenberg
crash!
2008-01-28Added peeps from the 7.18.0 release annoucementDaniel Stenberg
2008-01-28Add the three currently discussed bugs that won't make it into the 7.18.0Daniel Stenberg
release but hopefully they'll all be fixed in 7.18.1...
2008-01-25using anyauth isn't unconditionally an extra roundtripDaniel Stenberg
2008-01-25just wanted to mention two uclinux archs I've tried libcurl builds on myselfDaniel Stenberg
2008-01-23update openssl versionYang Tse
2008-01-20This is a multi threaded application that uses a progress bar to showDaniel Stenberg
status. It uses Gtk+ to make a smooth pulse. Written by Jud Bishop
2008-01-17the java binding is not really maintainedDaniel Stenberg
2008-01-15I made the torture test on test 530 go through. This was actually due toDaniel Stenberg
silly code left from when we switched to let the multi handle "hold" the dns cache when using the multi interface... Of course this only triggered when a certain function call returned error at the correct moment.
2008-01-15Michal Marek's improved .curlrc syntax descriptionDaniel Stenberg
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.
