CVS checked out curlbuild.h.dist as curlbuild.h for any non-configure target
when host system is not running buildconf.bat.
All the curlbuild.h stuff was done taking in consideration that no adjustment
would be needed in non-configure makefiles.
As it is documented, when trying to build on non-configure capable systems or on
systems which for any reason don't run the true configure script, it is required
to have the proper curlbuild.h in place before calling any makefile.
Due to the hardcore memory debugging stuff c-ares enabled debug builds also need
the file in the proper place before attempting to build c-ares.
proved how PUT and POST with a redirect could lead to a "hang" due to the
data stream not being rewound properly when it had to in order to get sent
properly (again) to the subsequent URL. This is now fixed and these test
cases are no longer disabled.
with -C - sent garbage in the Content-Range: header. I fixed this problem by
making sure libcurl always sets the size of the _entire_ upload if an app
attemps to do resumed uploads since libcurl simply cannot know the size of
what is currently at the server end. Test 1041 is no longer disabled.
incorrectly--the host name is treated as part of the user name and the
port number becomes the password. This can be observed in test 279
(was KNOWN_ISSUE #54).
by Ben Sutcliffe. The test when run manually shows a problem in curl,
but the test harness web server doesn't run the test correctly so it's
disabled for now.

that starting with Automake 1.8, aclocal will warn about all underquoted calls
to AC_DEFUN due to the fact that in a single aclocal run it might include more
than once all .m4 files which it finds available, this includes .m4 files from
other software packages.
If the first argument to AC_DEFUN is underquoted and the same macro is included
more than once, successive inclusions after the first one will expand the macro
instead of assuming it is the same as the first one included.
fix for it. It occured when you did a FTP transfer using
CURLFTPMETHOD_SINGLECWD and then did another one on the same easy handle but
switched to CURLFTPMETHOD_NOCWD. Due to the "dir depth" variable not being
cleared properly. Scott's test case is now known as test 539 and it
verifies the fix.
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=487567) pointing out that
libcurl used Content-Range: instead of Range when doing a range request with
--head (CURLOPT_NOBODY). This is now fixed and test case 1032 was added to
verify.
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.
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.
when function clock_gettime() is available and the monotonic timer is
also available. Otherwise, in some cases, librt or libposix4 could be used
for linking even when finally not using the clock_gettime() function due
to lack of the monotonic clock.
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.
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.
server input and response request files of the test harness sws server.
Reintroduce, for test # 1001, the <postcheck> small delay. The delay is
needed even with the accelerated writing of server input and response
request files in test harness sws server.

application to provide data for a multipart with the read callback. Note
that the size needs to be provided with CURLFORM_CONTENTSLENGTH when the
stream option is used. This feature is verified by the new test case
554. This feature was sponsored by Xponaut.

following. The patch that introduced this feature was done for 7.11.0, but
this code and functionality has been broken since about 7.15.4 (March 2006)
with the introduction of non-blocking OpenSSL "connects".
It was a hack to begin with and since it doesn't work and hasn't worked
correctly for a long time and nobody has even noticed, I consider it a very
suitable subject for plain removal. And so it was done.
timeout passed to startnew, when this happens startnew completes without being
able to read the pidfile and consequently returns a zero pid2.
To fix the above posibility the server pid is recovered from the verification
stage which will actually return the server pid when verification is valid.
Make sure that the sftp client tool uses the ssh client binary that we have
used to generate the configuration files, otherwise sftp might be using one
located in the preferred path compiled into sftp.
all curl's tests generated configuration and key files are fine, a real
connection is established to the test harness sftp server authenticating
and running a simple sftp remote pwd command.
The verification is done using OpenSSH's or SunSSH's sftp client tool with
a configuration file with the same options as the test harness socks server
with the exception that dynamic forwarding is not used for sftp.
"HttpOnly" feature introduced by Microsoft and apparently also supported by
Firefox: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms533046.aspx . HttpOnly
is now supported when received from servers in HTTP headers, when written to
cookie jars and when read from existing cookie jars.
