Peter Su added support for SOCKS4 proxies. Enable this by setting the proxy type to the already provided type CURLPROXY_SOCKS4. I added a --socks4 option that works like the current --socks5 option but instead use the socks4 protocol. 2006-02-21 02:46:41 -05:00			`Available command line options: 112`

David Hull made the file: URL parser also accept the somewhat sloppy file syntax: file:/path. I added test case 203 to verify this. 2003-10-29 04:53:21 -05:00

Adrian Schuur added trailer support in the chunked encoding stream. The trailer is then sent to the normal header callback/stream. 2005-07-12 14:15:34 -04:00
Michael Wallner added curl_formget(), which allows an application to extract (serialise) a previously built formpost (as with curl_formadd()). 2006-06-24 17:46:41 -04:00			`o added curl_formget()`
Peter Silva introduced CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE and CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE that limit tha maximum rate libcurl is allowed to send or receive data. This kind of adds the the command line tool's option --limit-rate to the library. The rate limiting logic in the curl app is now removed and is instead provided by libcurl itself. Transfer rate limiting will now also work for -d and -F, which it didn't before. 2006-06-22 17:36:53 -04:00			`o added CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE and CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE`

Arve Knudsen found a flaw in curl_multi_fdset() for systems where curl_socket_t is unsigned (like Windows) that could cause it to wrongly return a max fd of -1. 2006-06-23 18:07:06 -04:00			`o curl_multi_fdset() could return a crazy max_fd value`
