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.
curl_easy_getinfo. It returns a pointer to a string with the most recently
used IP address. Modified test case 500 to also verify this feature. The
implementing of this feature was sponsored by Lenny Rachitsky at NeuStar.
- Updated main.c to return CURLE_OK if PARAM_HELP_REQUESTED was returned
from getparameter instead of CURLE_FAILED_INIT. No point in returning
an error if --help or --version were requested.
the curl_multi_socket() API with HTTP pipelining enabled and could lead to
the pipeline basically stalling for a very long period of time until it took
off again.
provided excellent repeat recipes. I fixed the cases I managed to reproduce
but Jeff still got some (SCP) problems even after these fixes:
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-05/0342.html
how the HTTP redirect following code didn't properly follow to a new URL if
the new url was but a query string such as "Location: ?moo=foo". Test case
1031 was added to verify this fix.
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.
and receive data over a connection previously setup with curl_easy_perform()
and its CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY option. The sendrecv.c example was added to
show how they can be used.
when using CURL_AUTH_ANY" (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1945240).
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.
since libcurl used getprotobyname() and that isn't thread-safe. We now
switched to use IPPROTO_TCP unconditionally, but perhaps the proper fix is
to detect the thread-safe version of the function and use that.

redirections and thus cannot use CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION easily, we now
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
from the Location: header etc. Test 1029 verifies it.
Define HAVE_GSSMIT if <gssapi/{gssapi.h,gssapi_generic.h,gssapi_krb5.h}> are
available, otherwise define HAVE_GSSHEIMDAL if <gssapi.h> is available.
Only define GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE to gss_nt_service_name if
GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE isn't declared by the gssapi headers. This should
avoid breakage in case we wrongly recognize Heimdal as MIT again.
message when libcurl doesn't get a 220 back immediately on connect, I now
changed it to be more specific on what the problem is. Also worth noticing:
while the bug report contains an example where the response is:
421 There are too many connected users, please try again later
we cannot assume that the error message will always be this readable nor
that it fits within a particular boundary etc.
GET simply because previously when you set CURLOPT_NOBODY to TRUE first and
then FALSE you'd end up in a broken state where a HTTP request would do a
HEAD by still act a lot like for a GET and hang waiting for the content etc.
