In preparation for moving the NTLM message code into the SASL module,
and separating the native code from the SSPI code, added functions that
simply call the functions in curl_ntlm_msg.c.
Reworked the two sections that discuss modifying the Visual Studio pre-
processor settings, and vc6libcurl.dsw/vc6libcurl.dsp, to remove the
project files references as they have been superseded by a more thorough
set of project files for VC6 through VC12, but to also give the correct
reference to this setting in later versions of Visual Studio.
USE_NTLM would only be defined if: HTTP support was enabled, NTLM and
cryptography weren't disabled, and either a supporting cryptography
library or Windows SSPI was being compiled against.
This means it was not possible to build libcurl without HTTP support
and use NTLM for other protocols such as IMAP, POP3 and SMTP. Rather
than introduce a new SASL pre-processor definition, removed the HTTP
prerequisite just like USE_SPNEGO and USE_KRB5.
Note: Winbind support still needs to be dependent on CURL_DISABLE_HTTP
as it is only available to HTTP at present.
This bug dates back to August 2011 when I started to add support for
NTLM to SMTP.
As the list has gotten a little messy and hard to read, especially with
the introduction of deprecated items, aligned the values and comments
into clean columns and reworked some of the comments in the process.
Added !SSPI to the features list of the HTTP digest tests, as SSPI
based builds now use the Windows SSPI messaging API rather than the
internal functions, and we can't control the random numbers that get
used as part of the digest.
Reworked the input token (challenge message) storage as what is passed
to the buf and desc in the response generation are typically blobs of
data rather than strings, so this is more in keeping with other areas
of the SSPI code, such as the NTLM message functions.
This temporarily breaks HTTP digest authentication in SSPI based builds,
causing CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN to be returned. A follow up commit will
resume normal operation.
This is very handy when updating the RELEASE-NOTES as then we sometimes
have names added manually in the existing list and we use this script to
update the set.
As the curl command-line tool now includes it's own version of strdup(),
for platforms that don't have it, fixed up the git respository Visual
Studio project file generator to not include the version from lib in the
tool project files, rather than having both lib\strdup.[c|h] and
src\tool_strdup.[c|h] present.
