Curl_socket_ready(), Curl_poll() and Curl_select() when these are called
with a zero timeout or a timeout value indicating a blocking call should
be performed.
These unnecessary calls to gettimeofday() got introduced in 7.16.2 when
fixing 'timeout would restart when signal caught while awaiting socket
events' on 20 March 2007.
- Move some loop breaking logic from the while clause into the loop,
avoiding compiler warning 'assignment within conditional expression'
function that deprecates the curl_multi_socket() function. Using the new
function the application tell libcurl what action that was found in the
socket that it passes in. This gives a significant performance boost as it
allows libcurl to avoid a call to poll()/select() for every call to
curl_multi_socket*().
by letting configure check for setmode and ifdef on HAVE_SETMODE. NOTE: non-
configure platforms that havve setmode() needs their hard-coded config.h files
fixed. I fixed the src/config-win32.h.
or Curl_poll() with a non-zero timeout both functions would restart the
specified timeout. This could even lead to the extreme case that if a
signal arrived with a frecuency lower to the specified timeout neither
function would ever exit.
Added experimental symbol definition check CURL_ACKNOWLEDGE_EINTR in
Curl_select() and Curl_poll(). When compiled with CURL_ACKNOWLEDGE_EINTR
defined both functions will return as soon as a signal is caught. Use it
at your own risk, all calls to these functions in the library should be
revisited and checked before fully supporting this feature.
more frequently allowing same calling frecuency for the client progress
callback, while keeping the once a second frecuency for speed calculations
and internal display of the transfer progress.
makefiles that are included in the source release archives, generated from
the Makefile.vc6 files by the maketgz script. I also modified the root
Makefile to have a VC variable that defaults to vc6 but can be overridden to
allow it to be used for vc8 as well. Like this:
nmake VC=vc8 vc
server through a proxy and have the remote https server port set using the
CURLOPT_PORT option, protocol gets reset to http from https after the first
request.
User defined URL was modified internally by libcurl and subsequent reuse of
the easy handle may lead to connection using a different protocol (if not
originally http).
I found that libcurl hardcoded the protocol to "http" when it tries to
regenerate the URL if CURLOPT_PORT is set. I tried to fix the problem as
follows and it's working fine so far
fixing some bugs:
o Don't mix GET and POST requests in a pipeline
o Fix the order in which requests are dispatched from the pipeline
o Fixed several curl bugs with pipelining when the server is returning
chunked encoding:
* Added states to chunked parsing for final CRLF
* Rewind buffer after parsing chunk with data remaining
* Moved chunked header initializing to a spot just before receiving
headers
the multi interface and connection re-use that could make a
curl_multi_remove_handle() ruin a pointer in another handle.
The second problem was less of an actual problem but more of minor quirk:
the re-using of connections wasn't properly checking if the connection was
marked for closure.
to the debug callback.
- Shmulik Regev added CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING and
CURLOPT_HTTP_TRANSFER_DECODING that if set to zero will disable libcurl's
internal decoding of content or transfer encoded content. This may be
preferable in cases where you use libcurl for proxy purposes or similar. The
command line tool got a --raw option to disable both at once.
and CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS that, as their names should hint, do the
timeouts with millisecond resolution instead. The only restriction to that
is the alarm() (sometimes) used to abort name resolves as that uses full
seconds. I fixed the FTP response timeout part of the patch.
Internally we now count and keep the timeouts in milliseconds but it also
means we multiply set timeouts with 1000. The effect of this is that no
timeout can be set to more than 2^31 milliseconds (on 32 bit systems), which
equals 24.86 days. We probably couldn't before either since the code did
*1000 on the timeout values on several places already.
fail since they used "1 feb 2007"...
- Manfred Schwarb reported that socks5 support was broken and help us pinpoint
the problem. The code now tries harder to use httproxy and proxy where
apppropriate, as not all proxies are HTTP...
