would crash if a bad function sequence was used when shutting down after
using the multi interface (i.e using easy_cleanup after multi_cleanup) so
precautions have been added to make sure it doesn't any more - test case 529
was added to verify.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1561470) that is said to crash when an
FTP upload fails with the multi interface. It did not, but I made a failed
upload still assume the control connection to be fine.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1338648) which really is more of a
feature request, but anyway. It pointed out that --max-redirs did not allow
it to be set to 0, which then would return an error code on the first
Location: found. Based on Nis' patch, now libcurl supports CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS
set to 0, or -1 for infinity. Added test case 274 to verify.
(wrongly) sends *two* WWW-Authenticate headers for Digest. While this should
never happen in a sane world, libcurl previously got into an infinite loop
when this occurred. Dave added test 273 to verify this.
from the command line tool with --ignore-content-length. This will make it
easier to download files from Apache 1.x (and similar) servers that are
still having problems serving files larger than 2 or 4 GB. When this option
is enabled, curl will simply have to wait for the server to close the
connection to signal end of transfer. I wrote test case 269 that runs a
simple test that this works.
fix the CONNECT authentication code with multi-pass auth methods (such as
NTLM) as it didn't previously properly ignore response-bodies - in fact it
stopped reading after all response headers had been received. This could
lead to libcurl sending the next request and reading the body from the first
request as response to the second request. (I also renamed the function,
which wasn't strictly necessary but...)
The best fix would to once and for all make the CONNECT code use the
ordinary request sending/receiving code, treating it as any ordinary request
instead of the special-purpose function we have now. It should make it
better for multi-interface too. And possibly lead to less code...
Added test case 265 for this. It doesn't work as a _really_ good test case
since the test proxy is too stupid, but the test case helps when running the
debugger to verify.
with CURLOPT_PROXY can use a http:// prefix and user + password. The user
and password fields are now also URL decoded properly.
Test case 264 added to verify.
address was not possible to use. It is now, but requires it written
RFC2732-style, within brackets - which incidently is how you enter numerical
IPv6 addresses in URLs. Test case 263 added to verify.
binary zeroes within the headers. They confused libcurl to do wrong so the
downloaded headers become incomplete. The fix is now verified with test case
262.
.netrc, and when following a Location: the subsequent requests didn't properly
use the auth as found in the netrc file. Added test case 257 to verify my fix.
level stuff. The FTP server communicates with sockfilt using perl's open2().
This enables easier IPv6 support and hopefully FTP-SSL support in the future.
Added four test cases for FTP-ipv6.
also affecting NTLM and Negotiate.) It turned out that if the server responded
with 100 Continue before the initial 401 response, libcurl didn't take care of
the response properly. Test case 245 and 246 added to verify this.
function was fixed to use the proper proxy authentication when multiple ones
were added as accepted. test 239 and test 243 were added to repeat the
problems and verify the fixes.
file got a Last-Modified: header written to the data stream, corrupting the
actual data. This was because some conditions from the previous FTP code was
not properly brought into the new FTP code. I fixed and I added test case 520
to verify. (This bug was introduced in 7.13.1)
on the remote side. This then converts the operation to an ordinary STOR
upload. This was requested/pointed out by Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams.
It also proved (and I fixed) a bug in the newly rewritten ftp code (and
present in the 7.13.1 release) when trying to resume an upload and the servers
returns an error to the SIZE command. libcurl then loops and sends SIZE
commands infinitely.
requested data from a host and then followed a redirect to another
host. libcurl then didn't use the proxy-auth properly in the second request,
due to the host-only check for original host name wrongly being extended to
the proxy auth as well. Added test case 233 to verify the flaw and that the
fix removed the problem.
present in RFC959... so now (lib)curl supports it as well. --ftp-account and
CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT set the account string. (The server may ask for an account
string after PASS have been sent away. The client responds with "ACCT [account
string]".) Added test case 228 and 229 to verify the functionality. Updated
the test FTP server to support ACCT somewhat.
