pipelining, as libcurl could then easily get confused and A) work on the

operation didn't complete properly if the EAGAIN equivalent was returned but
libcurl would simply continue with a half-completed close operation
performed. This ruined persistent connection re-use and cause some
SSH-protocol errors in general. The correction is unfortunately adding a
blocking function - doing it entirely non-blocking should be considered for
a better fix.
duphandle+curl_mutli" (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2416182) showed
that curl_easy_duphandle() wrongly also copied the pointer to the connection
cache, which was plain wrong and caused a segfault if the handle would be
used in a different multi handle than the handle it was duplicated from.
there are servers "out there" that relies on the client doing this broken
Digest authentication. Apache even comes with an option to work with such
broken clients.
The difference is only for URLs that contain a query-part (a '?'-letter and
text to the right of it).
libcurl now supports this quirk, and you enable it by setting the
CURLAUTH_DIGEST_IE bit in the bitmask you pass to the CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH or
CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH options. They are thus individually controlled to server
and proxy.
particular state for the control connection like it did before for implicit
FTPS (libcurl assumed such control connections to be encrypted while some
FTPS servers such as FileZilla assumes such connections to be clear
mode). Use the CURLOPT_USE_SSL option to set your desired level.
researching it, it turned out he got a 550 response back from a SIZE command
and then I fell over the text in RFC3659 that says:
The presence of the 550 error response to a SIZE command MUST NOT be taken
by the client as an indication that the file cannot be transferred in the
current MODE and TYPE.
In other words: the change I did on September 30th 2008 and that has been
included in the last two releases were a regression and a bad idea. We MUST
NOT take a 550 response from SIZE as a hint that the file doesn't exist.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2221237) that identified an infinite

patience and great feedback I managed to narrow down the problem and
eventually fix it although I can't test any of this myself!

the multi interface that occured if you removed an easy handle while in
progress and the handle was used in a HTTP pipeline.
function when built to support SCP and SFTP that helps the library to know
in which direction a particular libssh2 operation would return EAGAIN so
that libcurl knows what socket conditions to wait for before trying the
function call again. Previously (and still when using libssh2 0.18 or
earlier), libcurl will busy-loop in this situation when the easy interface
is used!
when uploading files to a single FTP server using multiple easy handle
handles with the multi interface. Occasionally a handle would stall in
mysterious ways.
The problem turned out to be a side-effect of the ConnectionExists()
function's eagerness to re-use a handle for HTTP pipelining so it would
select it even if already being in use, due to an inadequate check for its
chances of being used for pipelnining.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2255627) which pointed out that a
program using libcurl's multi interface to download a HTTPS page with a
libcurl built powered by OpenSSL, would easily get silly and instead hand
over SSL details as data instead of the actual HTTP headers and body. This
happened because libcurl would consider the connection handshake done too
early. This problem was introduced at September 22nd 2008 with my fix of the
bug #2107377
The correct fix is now instead done within the GnuTLS-handling code, as both
the OpenSSL and the NSS code already deal with this situation in similar
fashion. I added test case 560 in an attempt to verify this fix, but
unfortunately it didn't trigger it even before this fix!

the curl_addrinfo.obj reference was missing. I took the opportunity to sort

make CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD sort of deprecated. The primary motive for adding
these new options is that they have no problems with the colon separator
that the CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD option does.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2154627) which pointed out that libcurl
uses strcasecmp() in multiple places where it causes failures when the
Turkish locale is used. This is because 'i' and 'I' isn't the same letter so
strcasecmp() on those letters are different in Turkish than in English (or
just about all other languages). I thus introduced a totally new internal
function in libcurl (called Curl_ascii_equal) for doing case insentive
comparisons for english-(ascii?) style strings that thus will make "file"
and "FILE" match even if the Turkish locale is selected.
systems supporting getifaddrs(). Also fixed a problem where an IPv6
address could be chosen instead of an IPv4 one for --interface when it
involved a name lookup.
fixed a CURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL memory leak and an additional wrong-doing:
Any subsequent transfer with a redirect leaks memory, eventually crashing
the process potentially.
Any subsequent transfer WITHOUT a redirect causes the most recent redirect
that DID occur on some previous transfer to still be reported.
eventually identified a flaw in how the multi_socket interface in some cases
missed to call the timeout callback when easy interfaces are removed and
added within the same millisecond.
curl_easy_setopt: CURLOPT_USERNAME and CURLOPT_PASSWORD that sort of
deprecates the good old CURLOPT_USERPWD since they allow applications to set
the user name and password independently and perhaps more importantly allow
both to contain colon(s) which CURLOPT_USERPWD doesn't fully support.
the app re-used the handle to do a connection to host B and then again
re-used the handle to host A, it would not update the info with host A's IP
address (due to the connection being re-used) but it would instead report
the info from host B.
gets a 550 response back for the cases where a download (or NOBODY) is
wanted. It still allows a 550 as response if the SIZE is used as part of an
upload process (like if resuming an upload is requested and the file isn't
there before the upload). I also modified the FTP test server and a few test
cases accordingly to match this modified behavior.
date parser function. This makes our function less dependent on system-
provided functions and instead we do all the magic ourselves. We also no
longer depend on the TZ environment variable.
Markus Moeller reported: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2008-09/0016.html
- recv() errors other than those equal to EAGAIN now cause proper
CURLE_RECV_ERROR to get returned. This made test case 160 fail so I've now
disabled it until we can figure out another way to exercise that logic.
proxy" (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2107377) that showed how a multi
interface using program didn't work when built with GnuTLS and a CONNECT
request was done over a proxy (basically test 502 over a proxy to a HTTPS
site). It turned out the ssl connect function would get called twice which
caused the second call to fail.
sites in cases where the cookie clearly has a very old expiry date. The
condition was simply that libcurl's date parser would fail to convert the
date and it would then count as a (timed-based) match. Starting now, a
missed date due to an unsupported date format or date range will now cause
the cookie to not match.
CURLOPT_POST301 (but adds a define for backwards compatibility for you who
don't define CURL_NO_OLDIES). This option allows you to now also change the
libcurl behavior for a HTTP response 302 after a POST to not use GET in the
subsequent request (when CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION is enabled). I edited the
patch somewhat before commit. The curl tool got a matching --post302
option. Test case 1076 was added to verify this.
enabling this feature with CURLOPT_CERTINFO for a request using SSL (HTTPS
or FTPS), libcurl will gather lots of server certificate info and that info
can then get extracted by a client after the request has completed with
curl_easy_getinfo()'s CURLINFO_CERTINFO option. Linus Nielsen Feltzing
helped me test and smoothen out this feature.
Unfortunately, this feature currently only works with libcurl built to use
OpenSSL.

sad faces. http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2080222

- libcurl didn't internally set the read counter to zero when this return

(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=487567) pointing out that

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()

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

tell the app about this close/re-create case.

All boolean options (such as -O, -I, -v etc), both short and long versions,
now always switch on/enable the option named. Using the same option multiple
times thus make no difference. To switch off one of those options, you need
to use the long version of the option and type --no-OPTION. Like to disable
verbose mode you use --no-verbose!
- Added --remote-name-all to curl, which if used changes the default for all
given URLs to be dealt with as if -O is used. So if you want to disable that
for a specific URL after --remote-name-all has been used, you muse use -o -
or --no-remote-name.

interface problems:
o with pipelining disabled, the state should never be set to WAITDO but
rather go straight to DO
o we had multiple states for which the internal function returned no socket
at all to wait for, with the effect that libcurl calls the socket callback
(when curl_multi_socket() is used) with REMOVE prematurely (as it would be
added again within very shortly)
o when in DO and DOING states, the HTTP and HTTPS protocol handler functions
didn't return that the socket should be waited for writing, but instead it
was treated as if no socket was needing monitoring so again REMOVE was
called prematurely.

The problem was that when libcurl rewound a stream meant for upload when it
would prepare for a second request, it could accidentally continue the
sending of the rewound data on the first request instead of on the second.
Ben also provided test case 1030 that verifies this fix.

introduce the new CURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL option that lets applications
extract the URL libcurl would've redirected to if it had been told to. This
then enables the application to continue to that URL as it thinks is
suitable, without having to re-implement the magic of creating the new URL

proxy authentication and the proxy replies with an auth (like NTLM) and then
closes the connection after that initial informational response.
libcurl would not properly re-initialize the connection to the proxy and
continue the auth negotiation like supposed. It does now however, as it will
now detect if one or more authentication methods were available and asked
for, and will thus retry the connection and continue from there.

doing upload resumes when there's already a huge part of the file present
remotely. Before, and still if this callback isn't used, libcurl will read
and through away the entire file up to the point to where the resuming
begins (which of course can be a slow opereration depending on file size,
I/O bandwidth and more). This new function will also be preferred to get
used instead of the CURLOPT_IOCTLFUNCTION for seeking back in a stream when
doing multi-stage HTTP auth with POST/PUT.

definition (only used by the curl_opensocket_callback). On all platforms I
could find information about, socklen_t is 32 unsigned bits large so I don't
think this will break the API or ABI. The main reason for this change is of
course for all the platforms that don't have a socklen_t definition in their
headers to build fine again. Providing our own configure magic and custom
definition of socklen_t on those systems proved to work but was a lot of
cruft, code and extra magic needed - when this very small change of type seems
harmless and still solves the missing socklen_t problem.

forwarded from the Gentoo bug tracker by Daniel Black and was originally
submitted by Robin Johnson, pointed out that libcurl would do bad memory
references when it failed and bailed out before the handler thing was
setup. My fix is not done like the provided patch does it, but instead I
make sure that there's never any chance for a NULL pointer in that struct
member.
