1 - str2offset() no longer accepts negative numbers since offsets are by
nature positive.
2 - introduced str2unum() for the command line parser that accepts
numericals which are not supposed to be negative, so that it will
properly complain on apparent bad uses and mistakes.
Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2012-07/0013.html
Print "parsing (...) OK" only when no warnings are generated. If
no file is found in Metalink, treat it FAILED.
If no digest is provided, print WARNING in parse_metalink().
Also print validating FAILED after download.
These changes make tests 2012 to 2016 pass.
Including headers in response body will break Metalink XML parser.
If it is included in the file described in Metalink XML, hash check
will fail. Therefore, --include should be ignored if --metalink is
used.
The noprogress and isatty in Configurable are global, in a sense
that they persist in one curl invocation. Currently once one
download writes its response data to tty, they are set to FALSE
and they are not restored on successive downloads. This change
first backups the current noprogress and isatty, and restores
them when download does not write its data to tty.
In this change, --metalink option no longer takes argument. If
it is specified, given URIs are processed as Metalink XML file.
If given URIs are remote (e.g., http URI), curl downloads it
first. Regardless URI is local file (e.g., file URI scheme) or
remote, Metalink XML file is not written to local file system and
the received data is fed into Metalink XML parser directly. This
means with --metalink option, filename related options like -O
and -o are ignored.
Usage examples:
$ curl --metalink http://example.org/foo.metalink
This will download foo.metalink and parse it and then download
the URI described there.
$ curl --metalink file://foo.metalink
This will parse local file foo.metalink and then download the URI
described there.
When creating metalink_checksum from metalink_checksum_t, first
check hex digest is valid for the given hash function. We do
this check in the order of digest_aliases so that first good
match will be chosen (strongest hash function available). As a
result, the metalinkfile now only contains at most one
metalink_checksum because other entries are just redundant.
Version number is removed in order to make this info consistent with
how we do it with other MS and Linux system libraries for which we don't
provide this info.
Identifier changed from 'WinSSPI' to 'schannel' given that this is the
actual provider of the SSL/TLS support. libcurl can still be built with
SSPI and without SCHANNEL support.
Added Windows SSPI version information to the curl version string when
SCHANNEL SSL is not enabled, as the version of the library should also
be included when SSPI is used to generate security contexts.
Removed SSPI from the feature list as the features are GSS-Negotiate,
NTLM and SSL depending on the usage of the SSPI library.
Additionally, make hash checking ability mandatory in order to allow metalink
support in curl.
A command line option could be introduced to skip hash checking at runtime,
but the ability to check hashes should always be built-in when providing
metalink support.
Metalink file contains several hash types of checksums, such as
md5, sha-1, sha-256, etc. To deal with these checksums, I created
abstraction layer based on lib/curl_md5.h and
lib/md5.c. Basically, they are almost the same but I changed the
code so that it is not hash type dependent. Currently,
GNUTLS(nettle or gcrypt) and OpenSSL functions are supported.
Checksum checking is done by reopening download file. If there
is an I/O error, the current implementation just prints error
message and does not try next resource.
In this patch, the supported hash types are: md5, sha-1 and sha-256.
Filenames contained in Metalink file can include directory information.
Filenames are unique in Metalink file, taking into account the directory
information. So we need to create the directory hierarchy.
Curl has --create-dirs option, but we create directory hierarchy for
Metalink downloads regardless of the option value.
This patch also put metalink int variable outside of HAVE_LIBMETALINK
guard. This reduces the number of #ifdefs.
This change adds experimental Metalink support to curl.
To enable Metalink support, run configure with --with-libmetalink.
To feed Metalink file to curl, use --metalink option like this:
$ curl -O --metalink foo.metalink
We use libmetalink to parse Metalink files.
To achieve this, first new structure HeaderData is defined to hold
necessary data to perform header-related work. Then tool_header_cb now
receives HeaderData pointer as userdata. All header-related work
(currently, dumping header and Content-Disposition inspection) are done
in this callback function. HeaderData.outs->config is used to determine
whether each work is done.
Unit tests were also updated because after this change, curl code always
sets CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION and CURLOPT_HEADERDATA.
Tested with -O -J -D, -O -J -i and -O -J -D -i and all worked fine.
Explicit conversion to 'long' of curl_easy_setopt() third argument for options
CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH and CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH given that this is how its bitmasks are
docummented to be used.
By comparing if a different "progress point" is reached or not since the
previous update, the progress function callback for this now avoids many
superfluous screen updates. This has the nice side-effect that it fixes
a problem that causes a second progress meter line.
The second line output happened because when we use the -# progress
meter, we force a newline output after the transfer in the main loop in
curl, but when libcurl calls the progress callback from
curl_easy_cleanup() it would then output the progress display
again. Possibly the naive newline output is wrong but this optimization
was suitable anyway...

BUILDING_LIBCURL and CURL_STATICLIB are no longer defined in curl_config.h,
configure will generate appropriate conditionals so that mentioned symbols
get defined and used in Makefiles at compilation time
Configuration files such as curl_config.h and all config-*.h no longer exist
nor are generated/copied into 'src' directory, now these only exist in 'lib'
directory from where curl tool sources uses them.
Additionally old src/setup.h has been refactored into src/tool_setup.h which
now pulls lib/setup.h
The possibility of a makefile needing an include path adjustment exists.
By modifying the parameter list for ourWriteOut() and passing the
OutStruct that collects data in tool_operate, we get access to the
remote name that we're writing to. Shell scripters should find this
useful when used in conjuntion with the --remote-header-name option.
This patch improves the output of curl's --libcurl option by
generating code which builds curl_httppost and curl_slist lists, and
uses symbolic names for enum and flag values. Variants of the
my_setopt macro in tool_setopt.h are added in order to pass extra type
information to the code-generation step in tool_setopt.c.
If curl is configured with --disable-libcurl-option then the macros
call curl_easy_setopt directly.
Fix the str2num() function to not check if the input string starts with a
digit, since strtol() supports numbers prepended with '-' (and '+') too.
This makes the --max-redirs option work as documented.
This new option tells curl to not work around a security flaw in the
SSL3 and TLS1.0 protocols. It uses the new libcurl option
CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS with the CURLSSLOPT_ALLOW_BEAST bit set.
Use the new library CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPALIVE rather than disabling this via
the sockopt callback. If --keepalive-time is used, apply the value to
CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPIDLE and CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPINTVL.
We want to continue to the next URL to try even on failures returned
from libcurl. This makes -f with ranges still get subsequent URLs even
if occasional ones return error. This was a regression as it used to
work and broke in the 7.23.0 release.
Added test case 1328 to verify the fix.

As commit 5850cc4808 clarifies, libcurl can deliver header lines that
are longer than CURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE, only body data is limited to that
size. The curl tool has check (when built debug-enabled) that made the
wrong checks and this new test 1205 verifies that larger headers work.
Previously we required that -S/--show-error was used _after_
-s/--silent. This was slightly confusing since we strive to make
arguments as position independent as possible.
Now, you can use them in any order and the result should still be the
same.
Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=3424286
Reported by: Andreas Olsson
Maximum amount of data a header callback is supposed to get in
a single call from libcurl is limited by the lowest value of
CURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE and CURL_MAX_HTTP_HEADER.
Allow (*curl_write_callback) write callbacks to return
CURL_WRITEFUNC_OUT_OF_MEMORY to properly indicate libcurl of OOM conditions
inside the callback itself.
When we use binary posts and regular ones intermixed on a single command
line, we cannot do strlen() etc on the data to figure out the length
(when inserting '&' and more). We must therefore keep track of the post
data length. Then we also end up setting the libcurl option with the
known size, so that we don't risk that libcurl will do strlen() on the
data.
This has the minor side-effect that --libcurl source codes now always
will use CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE but I don't consider that terribly
damaging.

Reorder handling of fields to match same order as the one given by current

Re-enabling MemoryTracking capability on 'src' subdirectory files and torture
tests have uncovered many issues which were going unnoticed in curl tool. So
here we go fixing some of them. Others still remain and should be addressed
ASAP, given that curl tool is used in our test harness also for test server
start verification purposes. There are even non-socket file descriptor leaks.
Feature string literal NTLM_SSO renamed to NTLM_WB.
Preprocessor symbol USE_NTLM_SSO renamed to WINBIND_NTLM_AUTH_ENABLED.
curl's 'long' option 'ntlm-sso' renamed to 'ntlm-wb'.
Fix some comments to make clear that this is actually a NTLM delegation.
As a bonus, this lets our MemoryTracking subsystem track zlib operations.
And also fixes a shortcut some zlib 1.2.x versions took using malloc()
instead of calloc(), which would trigger memory debuggers warnings on
memory being used without having been initialized.
Follow-up to commit 5eb2396cd as that wasn't complete.
At times HEADERFUNCTION+HEADERDATA was set only to have only HEADERDATA
set in the subsequent loop which could cause a NULL to get sent as
userdata to 'header_callback' which wasn't made to handle that.
Now HEADERFUNCTION is explicitly set to NULL if it isn't set to the
callback.
Using this option with an argument being set to one of
none/policy/always instructs libcurl how to deal with GSS
credentials. Or rather how it tells the server that delegation is fine
or not.
Allow configure builds to generate src/config-win32.h
Skip checksrc on src/config-win32.h contents already checked at lib/config-win32.h
Allow multiple -W in checksrc.pl
Allow compilation of libcurl and curl using BSD-style lwIP on Win32.
In order to compile libcurl and curl with this support it is necessary
to edit files lib/config-win32.h and src/config-win32.h and uncomment
a line to make definition of preprocessor symbol USE_LWIPSOCK visible.
Afterwards you can compile as usual.
In order to use compiled library with BSD-style lwIP TCP/IP stack in
your program it is mandatory that you include lwIP header file <lwip/opt.h>

Improved library search by check_function_exists_concat() macro:
it does not revert the list of libraries any more.
Improved OpenSSL library search: first find zlib, then search for
openssl libraries that may depend on zlib.
For Unix: openssl libraries can now be detected in nonstandard
locations. Supply CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH to CMake on command line.
Added installation capability (very basic one yet).
The make target checksrc now works in the root makefile and in both the
src and lib directories.
It is also run automatically on "all" if configure --enable-debug was
used.
For now we directly import the Idn* symbols with the linker;
an upcoming release of OWC will have these added to the import
lib normaliz.lib, and prototypes are added to winnnls.h.
It is now possible to use any combination of features without
having to 1st add makefile targets to the main makefile. The
main makefile now passes the 'mingw32-feat1-feat2' as var CFG,
and the ./[lib|src]/Makefile.m32 parses the CFG var to determine
the features to be enabled.
Added CURLOPT_TRANSFER_ENCODING as the option to set to request Transfer
Encoding in HTTP requests (if built zlib enabled). I also renamed
CURLOPT_ENCODING to CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING (while keeping the old name
around) to reduce the confusion when we have to encoding options for
HTTP.
--tr-encoding is now the new command line option for curl to request
this, and thus I updated the test cases accordingly.
* Rename the object object directory from 'objs' to 'BCC_obj' to be in
sync with my previous patch for lib/Makefile.b32.
* Turn off these warnings to keep the build totally silent (with CBuilder-6
that is).
-w-inl 8026 Functions X are not expanded inline.
-w-pia 8060 Possibly incorrect assignment
-w-pin 8061 Initialization is only partially bracketed
(same added in src/Makefile.b32)
* $(MKDIR) and $(RMDIR) have been replaced with the shell-commands 'md'
and 'rd'. When having MingW/Msys programs 'mkdir.exe' and 'rmdir.exe' in
$PATH, this confuses Borland's make and the result (the cleaning etc.) would
not be as expected.
* Removed the preprocessing step; no need for PP_CMD and the .int files.
curl.exe builds fine w/o and the makefile gets simpler.
* Added a target for creating a compressed hugehelp.c if WITH_ZLIB is defined.
It assumes groff, gzip and perl is available if such an "advanced" users
requests it. Okay? BTW. My groff and Perl needs unix-slashes ('/').
Other perls should handle both forms ('/' and '\').
All C and H files now (should) feature the proper project curl source
code header, which includes basic info, a copyright statement and some
basic disclaimers.
This enables people to specify a path to the netrc file to use.
The new option override --netrc if both are present. However it
does follow --netrc-optional if specified.
Since the feature requires support for TCP_KEEPIDLE and TCP_KEEPINTVL to
function as documented, it now warns if that support is missing when the
option is used.
... to not make the connection between the tool and the libcurl used
tighter than necessary, the tlsauth options are now always present but
if the used libcurl doesn't have TLSAUTH support it will return failure.
Also, replaced strncmp() with strequal to get case insensitive matching.
Instead of reopening the downloaded file, fsetxattr uses the (already
open) file descriptor to attach extended attributes. This makes the
procedure more robust against errors caused by moved or deleted files.
CURLOPT_RESOLVE is a new option that sends along a curl_slist with
name:port:address sets that will populate the DNS cache with entries so
that request can be "fooled" to use another host than what otherwise
would've been used. Previously we've encouraged the use of Host: for
that when dealing with HTTP, but this new feature has the added bonus
that it allows the name from the URL to be used for TLS SNI and server
certificate name checks as well.
This is a first change. Surely more will follow to make it decent.
setxattr is a glibc call to set extended attributes, so configure now
checks for it and the code is adapted to only build when the
functionality is present.
It is often convinient to track back the source of a once downloaded
file; this patch makes curl store the source URL and other metadata
alongside the retrieved file by using the extended attributes (if
supported by the file system and enabled by --xattr).
These haven't worked in at least 8 years due to missing source
files, and most active RiscOS developers these days apparently
cross-compile anyway.

Some options, such as the automatic decompression and some SSL related

If the filename contains a backslash, only use filename portion. The
idea is that even systems that don't handle backslashes as path
separators probably want that path removed for convenience.
This flaw is considered a security problem, see the curl security
vulnerability http://curl.haxx.se/docs/adv_20101013.html
Having an open brace without a closing brace caused a segfault.
Having a closing brace too many caused a silent error to occur, which
caused curl to bail out and return an error code but no error message
was shown. It does now!
All error message outputs no longer wrongly get _two_ newlines written

Renamed SDK_* to NDK_*; made NDK_* defines overwriteable from
environment; removed now obsolete YACC macro;
moved some curl_config.h defines to IPv6 section since they
are only needed when IPv6 is enabled - this makes libcurl compile
with older NDKs too which were not IPv6-aware.
It was introduced in commit eeb2cb05 along with the -F type=
change. Also fixed a typo in the name of the magic filename=
parameter. Tweaked tests 39 and 173 to better test this path.
The -F option allows some custom parameters within the given string, and
those strings are separated with semicolons. You can for example specify
"name=daniel;type=text/plain" to set content-type for the
field. However, the use of semicolons like that made it not work fine if
you specified one within the content-type, like for:
"name=daniel;type=text/plain;charset=UTF-8"
... as the second one would be seen as a separator and "charset" is no
parameter curl knows anything about so it was just silently discarded.
The new logic now checks if the semicolon and following keyword looks
like a parameter it knows about and if it isn't it is assumed to be
meant to be used within the content-type string itself.
I modified test case 186 to verify that this works as intended.

Added the -br switch to dynamic builds which fixes the issue I saw
with curl's --version output. Added debug info and symfile for debug

dependend on wlink version.
Patch posted to the list by malak.jiri AT gmail.com.
The var %MAKEFLAGS is only set in 3 cases: if set as environment
var or as macro definition from commandline, and either with the
-u or -ms switch. Since all these cases are unlikely for the average
user it should be safe to only test if %MAKEFLAGS is defined; this
has the benefit that now all other switches can be used again in
addition to the -u which was formerly not possible.
The --retry logic does retry HTTP when some specific response codes are
returned, but because the -f option sets the CURLOPT_FAILONERROR to
libcurl, the return codes are different for such situations and then the
curl tool failed to consider it for retrying.

- make both libcurl and curl makefiles use register calling convention
(previously libcurl had stack calling convention).
- added include paths to the Watcom headers so its no longer required
to set the environment vars for this.
- added -wcd=201 to supress compiler warning about unreachable code.
- use macros for all tools, and removed dependency on GNU tools like rm.
- make ipv6 and debug builds controlable via env vars and so make them
optional instead of default.
- commented WINLDAPAPI and WINBERAPI since they broke with OW 1.8, and
it seems they're not needed (anymore?).
- added rule for hugehelp.c.cvs so that it will be created when not
already exist - this is required for building from a release tarball
since there we have no hugehelp.c.cvs, thus compilation broke.
- removed C_ARG creation from lib/Makefile.Watcom and use CFLAGS
directly as done too in src/Makefile.Watcom - this has the benefit
that we will see all active cflags and defines during compile.
- added LINK-ARG to src/Makefile.Watcom in order to better control
linker input.
- a couple of other minor makefile tweaks here and there ...
- added largefile support for Watcom builds to config-win32.h. Not yet
tested if it really works, but should since Win32 supports it.
- added loaddll stuff to speed up builds if supported.

The --remote-header-name option for the command-line tool assumes that
everything beyond the filename= field is part of the filename, but that

This fix chops the filename off at the next semicolon, if there is one.

Since uploading from stdin is very likely to not work with anyauth and
its multi-phase probing for what authentication to actually use, alert
the user about it. Multi-phase negotiate almost certainly will involve
sending data and thus libcurl will need to rewind the stream to send
again, and it cannot do that with stdin.

bit too much and made the generated code ugly to read. Now we instead
track the remarks one specially and just lists them at the end of the

'objectpointer' instead.

as then CWD may first fail but then another connection does MKD before this
connection and thus MKD fails but trying CWD works! The numbers can
(should?) now be set with the convenience enums now called
CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR and CURLFTP_CREATE_DIR_RETRY.
Tests has proven that if you're making an application that uploads a set of
files to an ftp server, you will get a noticable gain in speed if you're
using multiple connections and this option will be then be very useful.
version 1.1 instead of 1.0 like before. This change also introduces the new
proxy type for libcurl called 'CURLPROXY_HTTP_1_0' that then allows apps to
switch (back) to CONNECT 1.0 requests. The curl tool also got a --proxy1.0
option that works exactly like --proxy but sets CURLPROXY_HTTP_1_0.
I updated all test cases cases that use CONNECT and I tried to do some using
--proxy1.0 and some updated to do CONNECT 1.1 to get both versions run.
Curl_sspi_global_init() and Curl_sspi_global_cleanup() which previously were
named Curl_ntlm_global_init() and Curl_ntlm_global_cleanup() in http_ntlm.c
Also adjusted socks_sspi.c to remove the link-time dependency on the Windows
SSPI library using it now in the same way as it was done in http_ntlm.c.
CURLOPT_SOCKS5_GSSAPI_SERVICE and CURLOPT_SOCKS5_GSSAPI_NEC to allow libcurl
to do GSS-style authentication with SOCKS5 proxies. The curl tool got the
options called --socks5-gssapi-service and --socks5-gssapi-nec to enable
these.
They basically offer the same thing the NO_PROXY environment variable only
offered previously: list a set of host names that shall not use the proxy
even if one is specified.
