curl/perl/Curl_easy/Changes

Revision history for Perl extension Curl::easy.
Check out the file README for more info.

1.1.4  Fri Apr 20 2001: - Cris Bailiff <c.bailiff@devsecure.com>
    - Fix case where curl_slists such as 'HTTPHEADERS' need to
      be re-set over persistant requests

1.1.3  Wed Apr 18 2001: - Cris Bailiff <c.bailiff@devsecure.com>
    - Change/shorten module function names: Curl::easy::curl_easy_setopt
      becomes Curl::easy::setopt etc. This requires minor changes to existing
      scripts....
    - Added callback function support to pass arbitrary SV * (including
	  FILE globs) from perl through libcurl to the perl callback.
	- Make callbacks still work with existing scripts which use STDIO
	- Initial support for libcurl 7.7.2 HEADERFUNCTION callback feature
	- Minor API cleanups/changes in the callback function signatures
	- Added Curl::easy::version function to return curl version string
	- Callback documentation added in easy.pm
    - More tests in test.pl

1.1.2  Mon Apr 16 2001: - Georg Horn <horn@koblenz-net.de>
    - Added support for callback functions. This is for the curl_easy_setopt()
      options WRITEFUNCTION, READFUNCTION, PROGRESSFUNCTION and PASSWDFUNCTION.
      Still missing, but not really neccessary: Passing a FILE * pointer,
      that is passed in from libcurl, on to the perl callback function.
    - Various cleanups, fixes and enhancements to easy.xs and test.pl.

1.1.1  Thu Apr 12 2001:
    - Made more options of curl_easy_setopt() work: Options that require
      a list of curl_slist structs to be passed in, like CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,
      are now working by passing a perl array containing the list elements.
      As always, look at the test script test.pl for an example.

1.1.0  Wed Apr 11 2001:
    - tested against libcurl 7.7
    - Added new function Curl::easy::internal_setopt(). By calling
      Curl::easy::internal_setopt(Curl::easy::USE_INTERNAL_VARS, 1);
      the headers and content of the fetched page are no longer stored
      into files (or written to stdout) but are stored into internal
      Variables $Curl::easy::headers and $Curl::easy::content.

1.0.2  Tue Oct 10 2000:
    - runs with libcurl 7.4
    - modified curl_easy_getinfo(). It now calls curl_getinfo() that has
      been added to libcurl in version 7.4.

1.0.1  Tue Oct 10 2000:
    - Added some missing features of curl_easy_setopt():
      - CURLOPT_ERRORBUFFER now works by passing the name of a perl
        variable that shall be crated and the errormessage (if any)
	be stored to.
      - Passing filehandles (Options FILE, INFILE and WRITEHEADER) now works.
    Have a look at test.pl to see how it works...

    - Added a new function, curl_easy_getinfo(), that for now always
      returns the number of bytes that where written to disk during the last
      download. If the curl_easy_getinfo() function is included in libcurl,
      (as promised by Daniel ;-)) i will turn this into just a call to this
      function.

1.0  Thu Oct 5 2000:
    - first released version
    - runs with libcurl 7.3
    - some features of curl_easy_setopt() are still missing:
      - passing function pointers doesn't work (options WRITEFUNCTION,
	READFUNCTION and PROGRESSFUNCTION).
      - passing FILE * pointers doesn't work (options FILE, INFILE and
	WRITEHEADER).
      - passing linked lists doesn't work (options HTTPHEADER and
	HTTPPOST).
      - setting the buffer where to store error messages in doesn't work
	(option ERRORBUFFER).
