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
James Housley did lots of work and introduced SFTP downloads.
2006-11-24 17:14:39 -05:00
o Support for SCP and SFTP were added
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:
Olaf Stueben provided a patch that I edited slightly. It fixes the notorious 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.
2006-11-03 07:43:55 -05:00
o proxy close during CONNECT authentication is now dealt with nicely
Bradford Bruce reported that when setting CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION without CURLOPT_VERBOSE set to non-zero, you still got a few debug messages from the SSL handshake. This is now stopped.
2006-11-08 16:49:14 -05:00
o the CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION was sometimes called even when CURLOPT_VERBOSE
was not enabled
Ciprian Badescu found a SIGSEGV when doing multiple TFTP transfers using the multi interface, but I could also repeat it doing multiple sequential ones with the easy interface. Using Ciprian's test case, I could fix it.
2006-11-09 16:36:18 -05:00
o multiple TFTP transfers on the same (easy or multi) handle could cause a
crash
Dmitriy Sergeyev found a SIGSEGV with his test04.c example posted on 7 Nov 2006. It turned out we wrongly assumed that the connection cache was present when tearing down a connection.
2006-11-09 16:54:33 -05:00
o SIGSEGV when disconnecting on a transfer on a re-used handle when the
host name didn't resolve
Ron in bug #1595348 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1595348) pointed out a stack overwrite (and the corresponding fix) on 64bit Windows when dealing with HTTP chunked encoding.
2006-11-13 12:29:07 -05:00
o stack overwrite on 64bit Windows in the chunked decoding department
Venkat Akella found out that libcurl did not like HTTP responses that simply responded with a single status line and no headers nor body. Starting now, a HTTP response on a persistent connection (i.e not set to be closed after the response has been taken care of) must have Content-Length or chunked encoding set, or libcurl will simply assume that there is no body. To my horror I learned that we had no less than 57(!) test cases that did bad HTTP responses like this, and even the test http server (sws) responded badly when queried by the test system if it is the test system. So although the actual fix for the problem was tiny, going through all the newly failing test cases got really painful and boring.
2006-11-25 08:32:04 -05:00
o HTTP responses on persistent connections without Content-Length nor chunked
encoding are now considered to be without response body
Toon Verwaest reported that there are servers that send the Content-Range: header in a third, not suppported by libcurl, format and we agreed that we could make the parser more forgiving to accept all the three found variations.
2006-12-01 02:49:22 -05:00
o Content-Range: header parsing improved
Matt Witherspoon fixed a problem case when the CPU load went to 100% when a HTTP upload was disconnected: "What appears to be happening is that my system (Linux 2.6.17 and 2.6.13) is setting *only* POLLHUP on poll() when the conditions in my previous mail occur. As you can see, select.c:Curl_select() does not check for POLLHUP. So basically what was happening, is poll() was returning immediately (with POLLHUP set), but when Curl_select() looked at the bits, neither POLLERR or POLLOUT was set. This still caused Curl_readwrite() to be called, which quickly returned. Then the transfer() loop kept continuing at full speed forever."
2006-12-05 08:37:05 -05:00
o CPU 100% load when upload connection broke

This release would not have looked like this without help, code, reports and
advice from friends like these:
