the socket hash table used in multi handles to greatly enhance speed when
very many connections are added and the socket API is used.
chunked encoding (that also lacks "Connection: close"). It now simply
assumes that the connection WILL be closed to signal the end, as that is how
RFC2616 section 4.4 point #5 says we should behave.
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2007-06/0238.html, libcurl didn't properly do
no-body requests on FTP files on re-used connections properly, or at least
it didn't provide the info back in the header callback properly in the
subsequent requests.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1740263). Adam discovered that when
getting a large amount of URLs with curl, they were fetched slower and
slower... which turned out to be because the --libcurl data collecting which
wrongly always was enabled, but no longer is...
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1739100) that mentioned that libcurl
could not actually list the contents of the root directory of a given FTP
server if the login directory isn't root. I fixed the problem and added three
test cases (one is disabled for now since I identified KNOWN_BUGS #44, we
cannot use --ftp-method nocwd and list ftp directories).
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1733119) and we collaborated on the fix.
The problem is that for 64bit HPUX builds, several socket-related functions
would still assume int (32 bit) arguments and not socklen_t (64 bit) ones.
- -s/--silent can now be used to toggle off the silence again if used a second
time.

- Added Daniel Black's work that adds the first few SOCKS test cases. I also
fixed two minor SOCKS problems to make the test cases run fine.
to find that it crashed miserably, and this was due to some select()isms left
in the code. This was due to API restrictions in c-ares 1.3.x, but with the
upcoming c-ares 1.4.0 this is no longer the case so now libcurl runs much
better with c-ares and the multi interface with > 1024 file descriptors in
use.
overwrite in Curl_select(). While fixing it, I also improved its performance
somewhat by changing calloc to malloc and breaking out of a loop earlier
(when possible).

Black identifying several FTP-SSL test cases fail when we build libcurl with
NSS for TLS/SSL. Listed as #42 in KNOWN_BUGS.
pointed out that the warnf() function in the curl tool didn't properly deal
with the cases when excessively long words were used in the string to chop
up.
peer's name in the SSL certificate when built for OpenSSL. The leak happens
for libcurls with CURL_DOES_CONVERSIONS enabled that fail to convert the CN
name from UTF8.
bug report #1715394 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1715394), and the
transfer-related info "variables" were indeed overwritten with zeroes wrongly
and have now been adjusted. The upload size still isn't accurate.
because I just made SCP uploads return this value if the file size of
the upload file isn't given with CURLOPT_INFILESIZE*. Docs updated to
reflect this news, and a define for the old name was added to the public
header file.
when CURLOPT_HTTP200ALIASES is used to avoid the problem mentioned below is
not very nice if the client wants to be able to use _either_ a HTTP 1.1
server or one within the aliases list... so starting now, libcurl will
simply consider 200-alias matches the to be HTTP 1.0 compliant.
libcurls, which turned out to be the 25-nov-2006 change which treats HTTP
responses without Content-Length or chunked encoding as without bodies. We
now added the conditional that the above mentioned response is only without
body if the response is HTTP 1.1.

when adding easy handles "on the fly". Bug report and test app provided by

since it then inits libgcrypt and libgcrypt is being evil and EXITS the

thing to do by a library.
been removed from a multi handle, and then fixed another flaw that prevented
curl_easy_duphandle() to work even after the first fix - the handle was
still marked as using the multi interface.
was 16385 bytes (16K+1) and it turned out we didn't properly always "suck
out" all data from libssh2. The effect being that libcurl would hang on the
socket waiting for data when libssh2 had in fact already read it all...
the CURLOPT_RESUME_FROM or CURLOPT_RANGE options and an existing connection
in the connection cache is closed to make room for the new one when you call
curl_easy_perform(). It would then wrongly free range-related data in the
connection close funtion.
identifying a double-free problem in the SSL-dealing layer, telling GnuTLS to

Curl_socket_ready(), Curl_poll() and Curl_select() when these are called

These unnecessary calls to gettimeofday() got introduced in 7.16.2 when

- 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*().

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

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

allow it to be used for vc8 as well. Like this:

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
