Curl and libcurl 7.16.2
working draft of the upcoming 7.10.8 release notes
2003-09-22 17:38:52 -04:00
start working on 7.16.2
2007-01-30 07:25:55 -05:00
Public curl release number: 98
Releases counted from the very beginning: 125
Added --pubkey option to curl and made --key also work for SCP/SFTP, plus made --pass work on an SSH private key as well.
2007-03-23 13:59:40 -04:00
Available command line options: 118
- Shmulik Regev fixed so that the final CRLF of HTTP response headers are sent 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.
2007-02-12 16:13:47 -05:00
Available curl_easy_setopt() options: 141
curl_multi_assign() and CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION proto change
2006-07-26 18:25:00 -04:00
Number of public functions in libcurl: 54
Two new mirrors, but the total amount of mirrors still don't go up very much due to the frequent dying of mirrors...
2007-02-25 06:50:11 -05:00
Amount of public web site mirrors: 38
7.16.0 material
2006-10-29 18:03:14 -05:00
Number of known libcurl bindings: 35
curl_easy_reset() now resets the CA bundle path correctly
2007-01-28 07:58:13 -05:00
Number of contributors: 539
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
Armel Asselin made the CURLOPT_PREQUOTE option work fine even when CURLOPT_NOBODY is set true. PREQUOTE is then run roughly at the same place in the command sequence as it would have run if there would've been a transfer.
2006-08-08 18:56:46 -04:00
This release includes the following changes:
Armel Asselin separated CA cert verification problems from problems with 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.
2006-10-21 07:32:05 -04:00
ftp@example.com is now the new anonymous FTP password. I opted for 'ftp' on the left side of @ to make it short(er).
2007-02-13 17:50:16 -05:00
o added CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS and CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS
o added CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING, CURLOPT_HTTP_TRANSFER_DECODING and
- Shmulik Regev fixed so that the final CRLF of HTTP response headers are sent 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.
2007-02-12 16:13:47 -05:00
--raw
ftp@example.com is now the new anonymous FTP password. I opted for 'ftp' on the left side of @ to make it short(er).
2007-02-13 17:50:16 -05:00
o added support for using the NSS library for TLS/SSL
o changed default anonymous FTP password
New FTP CCC functionality - adds passive and active mode to accomodate for different server behaviour
2007-02-20 17:08:50 -05:00
o changed the CURLOPT_FTP_SSL_CCC option to handle active and passive
CCC shutdown
- Robert A. Monat and Shmulik Regev helped out to fix the new */Makefile.vc8 makefiles that are included in the source release archives, generated from the Makefile.vc6 files by the maketgz script. I also modified the root Makefile to have a VC variable that defaults to vc6 but can be overridden to allow it to be used for vc8 as well. Like this: nmake VC=vc8 vc
2007-03-02 17:42:43 -05:00
o added the --ftp-ssl-ccc-mode command line option
o includes VC8 Makefiles in the release archive
--ftp-ssl-control is now honoured on ftps:// URLs
2007-03-13 15:54:10 -04:00
o --ftp-ssl-control is now honoured on ftps:// URLs
Fixed: When a signal was caught awaiting for an event using Curl_select() or Curl_poll() with a non-zero timeout both functions would restart the specified timeout. This could even lead to the extreme case that if a signal arrived with a frecuency lower to the specified timeout neither function would ever exit. Added experimental symbol definition check CURL_ACKNOWLEDGE_EINTR in Curl_select() and Curl_poll(). When compiled with CURL_ACKNOWLEDGE_EINTR defined both functions will return as soon as a signal is caught. Use it at your own risk, all calls to these functions in the library should be revisited and checked before fully supporting this feature.
2007-03-20 16:00:40 -04:00
o added experimental CURL_ACKNOWLEDGE_EINTR symbol definition check
Added --pubkey option to curl and made --key also work for SCP/SFTP, plus made --pass work on an SSH private key as well.
2007-03-23 13:59:40 -04:00
o --key and new --pubkey options for SSH public key file logins
o --pass now works for a SSH public key file, too
New Internal wrapper function Curl_select() around select (2), it uses poll() when a fine poll() is available, so now libcurl can be built without select() support at all if a fine poll() is available.
2007-03-27 14:15:26 -04:00
o select (2) support no longer needed to build the library if poll() used
Armel Asselin made the CURLOPT_PREQUOTE option work fine even when CURLOPT_NOBODY is set true. PREQUOTE is then run roughly at the same place in the command sequence as it would have run if there would've been a transfer.

working draft of the upcoming 7.10.8 release notes
2003-09-22 17:38:52 -04:00
This release includes the following bugfixes:
cookie expiry date in several test cases set to year 2030/2035
2007-02-04 21:43:21 -05:00
o in testsuite, update test cookies expiration from 2007-Feb-1 to year 2035
- Yang Tse fixed the cookie expiry date in several test cases that started to fail since they used "1 feb 2007"... - Manfred Schwarb reported that socks5 support was broken and help us pinpoint the problem. The code now tries harder to use httproxy and proxy where apppropriate, as not all proxies are HTTP...
2007-02-03 04:34:03 -05:00
o socks5 works
ftp@example.com is now the new anonymous FTP password. I opted for 'ftp' on the left side of @ to make it short(er).
2007-02-13 17:50:16 -05:00
o builds fine with VC2005
- Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett and Michal Marek reported problems with resetting CURLOPT_RANGE back to no range on an easy handle when using FTP.
2007-02-16 10:37:05 -05:00
o CURLOPT_RANGE set to NULL resets the range for FTP
- Jeff Pohlmeyer identified two problems: first a rather obscure problem with 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.
2007-02-18 18:02:42 -05:00
o curl_multi_remove_handle() rare crash
- Robson Braga Araujo made passive FTP transfers work with SOCKS (both 4 and 5).
2007-02-19 06:53:54 -05:00
o passive FTP transfers work with SOCKS
- Shmulik Regev found a memory leak in re-used HTTPS connections, at least when the multi interface was used.
2007-02-19 07:20:32 -05:00
o multi interface HTTPS connection re-use memory leak
Ian Turner fixed the libcurl.m4 macro's support for --with-libcurl. AC_PATH_PROG was not used properly.
2007-02-19 07:37:04 -05:00
o libcurl.m4's --with-libcurl is improved
Mention curl-config dependencies fix.
2007-02-19 16:50:03 -05:00
o curl-config --libs and libcurl.pc no longer list unnecessary dependencies
New FTP CCC functionality - adds passive and active mode to accomodate for different server behaviour
2007-02-20 17:08:50 -05:00
o fixed an issue with CCC not working on some servers
- Ravi Pratap provided work on libcurl making pipelining more robust and fixing some bugs: o Don't mix GET and POST requests in a pipeline o Fix the order in which requests are dispatched from the pipeline o Fixed several curl bugs with pipelining when the server is returning chunked encoding: * Added states to chunked parsing for final CRLF * Rewind buffer after parsing chunk with data remaining * Moved chunked header initializing to a spot just before receiving headers
2007-02-21 16:59:40 -05:00
o several HTTP pipelining problems
- Adam D. Moss made the HTTP CONNECT procedure less blocking when used from the multi interface. Note that it still does a part of the connection in a blocking manner.
2007-02-25 06:38:13 -05:00
o HTTP CONNECT thru a proxy is now less blocking when the multi interface is
used
HTTP Digest header parsing fix
2007-02-27 08:51:20 -05:00
o HTTP Digest header parsing fix for unquoted last word ending with CRLF
- Hang Kin Lau found and fixed: When I use libcurl to connect to an https server through a proxy and have the remote https server port set using the CURLOPT_PORT option, protocol gets reset to http from https after the first request. User defined URL was modified internally by libcurl and subsequent reuse of the easy handle may lead to connection using a different protocol (if not originally http). I found that libcurl hardcoded the protocol to "http" when it tries to regenerate the URL if CURLOPT_PORT is set. I tried to fix the problem as follows and it's working fine so far
2007-02-27 17:12:15 -05:00
o CURLOPT_PORT, HTTP proxy, re-using connections and non-HTTP protocols
- Robert Iakobashvili fixed CURLOPT_INTERFACE for IPv6.
2007-03-09 17:48:07 -05:00
o CURLOPT_INTERFACE for ipv6
Eygene Ryabinkin fixed a use-after-free issue with HTTP transfers with the multi interface
2007-03-10 17:51:20 -05:00
o use-after-free issue with HTTP transfers with the multi interface
Bryan Henderson fixed the progress function so that it can get called more frequently allowing same calling frecuency for the client progress callback, while keeping the once a second frecuency for speed calculations and internal display of the transfer progress.
2007-03-19 08:02:33 -04:00
o the progress callback can get called more frequently
Fixed: When a signal was caught awaiting for an event using Curl_select() or Curl_poll() with a non-zero timeout both functions would restart the specified timeout. This could even lead to the extreme case that if a signal arrived with a frecuency lower to the specified timeout neither function would ever exit. Added experimental symbol definition check CURL_ACKNOWLEDGE_EINTR in Curl_select() and Curl_poll(). When compiled with CURL_ACKNOWLEDGE_EINTR defined both functions will return as soon as a signal is caught. Use it at your own risk, all calls to these functions in the library should be revisited and checked before fully supporting this feature.
2007-03-20 16:00:40 -04:00
o timeout would restart when signal caught while awaiting socket events
curl_easy_reset() now resets the CA bundle path correctly
