fix for it. It occured when you did a FTP transfer using
CURLFTPMETHOD_SINGLECWD and then did another one on the same easy handle but
switched to CURLFTPMETHOD_NOCWD. Due to the "dir depth" variable not being
cleared properly. Scott's test case is now known as test 539 and it
verifies the fix.
CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME. This is set with the "application layer"
handshake/connection is completed (typically SSL, TLS or SSH). By using this
you can figure out the application layer's own connect time. You can extract
the time stamp using curl's -w option and the new variable named
'time_appconnect'. This feature was sponsored by Lenny Rachitsky at NeuStar.
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=487567) pointing out that
libcurl used Content-Range: instead of Range when doing a range request with
--head (CURLOPT_NOBODY). This is now fixed and test case 1032 was added to
verify.
handshake with a SSLv2 server, and it turned out to be because it didn't
recognize the cipher named "rc4-md5". In our list that cipher was named
plainly "rc4". I've now added rc4-md5 to work as an alias as Phil reported
that it made things work for him again.
crashed libcurl. This is now addressed by making sure we use "plain send"
internally when doing the socks handshake instead of the Curl_write()
function which is designed to use the "target" protocol. That's then SCP or
SFTP in this case. I also took the opportunity and cleaned up some ssh-
related #ifdefs in the code for readability.
libcurl to not tell the app properly when a socket was closed (when the name
resolve done by c-ares is done) and then immediately re-created and put to
use again (for the actual connection). Since the closure will make the
"watch status" get lost in several event-based systems libcurl will need to
tell the app about this close/re-create case.
multi interface with pipelining enabled as it would wrongly check for,
detect and close "dead connections" even though that connection was already
in use!
warning in the code though but we need NSS' base64.h header for that and we
don't currently have a suitable way to include it as our own base64.h header
kind of "blocks" it.
libraries are supported. Starting now, each underlying SSL library support
code does a set of defines for the 16 functions the generic layer (sslgen.c)
uses (all these new function defines use the prefix "curlssl_"). This
greatly simplified the generic layer in readability by involving much less
#ifdefs and other preprocessor stuff and should make it easier for people to
make libcurl work with new SSL libraries.
Hopefully I can later on document these 16 functions somewhat as well.
I also made most of the internal SSL-dependent functions (using Curl_ssl_
prefix) #defined to nothing when no SSL support is requested - previously
they would unnecessarily call mostly empty functions.
curl_easy_getinfo. It returns a pointer to a string with the most recently
used IP address. Modified test case 500 to also verify this feature. The
implementing of this feature was sponsored by Lenny Rachitsky at NeuStar.
the curl_multi_socket() API with HTTP pipelining enabled and could lead to
the pipeline basically stalling for a very long period of time until it took
off again.
provided excellent repeat recipes. I fixed the cases I managed to reproduce
but Jeff still got some (SCP) problems even after these fixes:
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-05/0342.html
how the HTTP redirect following code didn't properly follow to a new URL if
the new url was but a query string such as "Location: ?moo=foo". Test case
1031 was added to verify this fix.
