Changelog
|
|
|
|
|
|
Daniel (9 February 2004)
|
|
- The default HTTP Accept: header was modified to the much simpler
|
|
"Accept: */*".
|
|
|
|
- P R Schaffner updated the curl-ssl spec file for RPMs.
|
|
|
|
- Dominick Meglio brought lots of documentation for the share interface's man
|
|
pages that were previously missing.
|
|
|
|
- Tor Arntsen provided a patch that makes libcurl work-around a bug in the
|
|
AIX5 implementation of getaddrinfo(). This makes the FTP PORT stuff work on
|
|
ipv6-enabled AIX builds.
|
|
|
|
- Ken Rastatter provided portability fixes for the curlgtk.c example, and now
|
|
it runs on windows with GTK as well!
|
|
|
|
Daniel (6 February 2004)
|
|
- Andrés García made the configure script find gethostbyname() fine when run
|
|
with mingw on windows.
|
|
|
|
- Modifed the ldap code to use proper function pointers all over (instead of
|
|
mixed data and function pointers) to work-around the picky MIPSPro compiler
|
|
warnings.
|
|
|
|
- A custom Host: header is only considered if the request is not made by
|
|
following a location. After discussions with Tim Baker.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (5 February 2004)
|
|
- The libz part of the configure script now only set the two libz-related
|
|
define HAVE_ZLIB_H and HAVE_LIBZ if both the lib and the header is found.
|
|
If one is missing, none of the defines is set.
|
|
|
|
- Andrés García fixed the Mingw makefiles.
|
|
|
|
- Len Krause reported that curl 7.9.X could do uploading from stdin without
|
|
doing chunked encoding, which current curl cannot do even if you disable
|
|
the transfer-encoding chunked header. Now it can again, and test case 98
|
|
verifies this functionality.
|
|
|
|
- Tor Arntsen fixed a weird getaddrinfo() usage in the FTP code, preventing
|
|
the ipv6-code for PORT work on AIX 5.2. We now also provide (better) error
|
|
messages when bailing out in the that function.
|
|
|
|
- Tor Arntsen now provides AIX and IRIX (using gcc, xlc and the MIPSPro
|
|
compilers) automated build logs (http://curl.haxx.se/auto/) and we've fixed
|
|
numerous minor quirks to make less warnings appear.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (4 February 2004)
|
|
- Based on a patch by Gilad, we now use the custom timeouts when waiting for a
|
|
server to connect when using FTP PORT. Previously we always waited 10
|
|
seconds, no more no less. We now also changed the default (if no timeout is
|
|
set) to wait 60 seconds for the connect before we fail.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (3 February 2004)
|
|
- Modified to link with c-ares instead of ares.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (2 February 2004)
|
|
- Added a configure test to check for which option the (g)nroff tool wants
|
|
to extract plain text from the man pages. Tor Arntsen told us the AIX
|
|
version of GNU gnroff doesn't support -man!
|
|
|
|
- Added an undef of accept in memdebug.h to make curl build with --enable-debug
|
|
on AIX 5.2 which seems to have accept defined. Reported by Tor Arntsen.
|
|
|
|
- curl_version() now includes c-ares version info, and curl_version_info() now
|
|
returns a struct with version SECOND that also includes that info.
|
|
|
|
- We are now officially using c-ares for asynch name resolves. c-ares is the
|
|
new library, based on the existing ares but with an extended and slightly
|
|
modified API.
|
|
|
|
- Dirk improved the ares timeout code, and now we also include the ares error
|
|
string when we fail to resolve a name.
|
|
|
|
- Another tweak to make test case 91 run fine. Now we have another bit on a
|
|
connection that is set true if the connection is marked for 'retry'. That
|
|
makes the connection get closed and re-opened and the HTTP-done code must
|
|
not complain on the fact that no data was received.
|
|
|
|
- Based on Dirk Manske's patch, I modified the name resolving with ares to
|
|
feature a timeout for really slow lookups. It now defaults to 300 seconds,
|
|
but is now adjusted to the CONNECTTIMEOUT/TIMOUE timeouts if one of them
|
|
is set.
|
|
|
|
- Fixed the inclusion of ca-bundle.h to really use the one in the build dir
|
|
before the one in the source dir. Domenico Andreoli found out and reported.
|
|
|
|
- Added test case 97, a simple POST with a custom Content-Type header
|
|
replacing the original application/x-www-form-urlencoded one.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (30 January 2004)
|
|
- Added code that attempts to fix the test 91 failure. As has been figured out
|
|
by Patrick Smith, the error happens because we re-use a connection that the
|
|
server is just about to close and we even manage to send away the request
|
|
without seeing an error. On the first read attempt we get a ECONNRESET.
|
|
Starting now, we attempt to detect this and if so, we retry the request on a
|
|
fresh connection.
|
|
|
|
- I added test case 510 which is a custom program that does a POST using a
|
|
read callback, with chunked transfer-encoding.
|
|
|
|
- Adjusted one of the MPE/iX changes as it made test case 504 fail all over.
|
|
|
|
- Added --socks as a recognized option. It works just like --proxy but sets a
|
|
SOCKS5 proxy to use. SOCKS5 support has been available in libcurl for a
|
|
while, just not provided by the curl tool. This does not currently work for
|
|
IPv6-enabled libcurls.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (29 January 2004)
|
|
- Stadler Stephan pointed out that src/hugehelp.c included config.h without
|
|
checking the define if its present...
|
|
|
|
- Ken Hirsch provided patches to make curl build fine on the MPE/iX operating
|
|
system.
|
|
|
|
- Dan Fandrich compiled curl with lots of aggresively pedantic compiler
|
|
options and thus found a few minor errors and did some general cleanups to
|
|
avoid them.
|
|
|
|
- Dirk Manske fixed a flaw in ares that prevented it to use non-blocking
|
|
sockets properly.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (28 January 2004)
|
|
- Richard Bramante fixed chunked transfer-encoded "uploads" to send a final
|
|
CRLF combo properly.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (27 January 2004)
|
|
- Made the response-headers during a CONNECT request to a proxy get passed on
|
|
as regular headers, so they appear with -i/-I options and similar.
|
|
|
|
- Based on a patch by Gisle Vanem, I've made the progress meter display
|
|
properly switch to a GB-display when more than 9999MB have been transfered.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (23 January 2004)
|
|
- Gisle Vanem pointed out a curlrc parser problem/crash when an option with a
|
|
required didn't have one and was on the last line of a file.
|
|
|
|
- More Windows fixes for large files. We now build and link with
|
|
../lib/strtoofft.c in the app code since Curl_strtoll() is not a provided
|
|
libcurl function... Perhaps we should consider a 'common' dir or similar
|
|
where we put source code used in both the lib and the client. Or perhaps
|
|
we'll just make this function available in the library...
|
|
|
|
- Vincent Bronner found out the socks5 code crashed when no username was
|
|
set.
|
|
|
|
- Vincent Bronner spotted a problem with proxy username/password when re-using
|
|
a persistant connection.
|
|
|
|
- Fixed the progress meter display for files larger than 2^31 bytes. Gisle
|
|
Vanem reported.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (22 January 2004)
|
|
- Gisle Vanem made strtoll() get used when curl is built with the mingw
|
|
compiler.
|
|
|
|
- Gisle Vanem fixed the compressed help text code to display properly.
|
|
|
|
- Removed the '#define HttpPost' from the public header file, as curl_httppost
|
|
is the proper name and it has been for quite some time now. Fixes another
|
|
name space pollution.
|
|
|
|
- Added 'curl_off_t' typedef in the public header file, to be used to provide
|
|
large file sizes to the *_LARGE options. Adjusted the code all over to use
|
|
this variable type instead of 'off_t'. This is an attempt to make the large
|
|
file support work on more platforms. The configure script now checks the
|
|
size of the curl_off_t instead of the plain off_t.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.11.0 (22 Januari 2004)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (21 January 2004)
|
|
- Removed the defines in the public header file with TIMECOND_ prefixes. They
|
|
have been obsolete since April 22nd 2002, and if this causes anyone any
|
|
problems now it is very easy to just add CURL_ to the names. This corrects
|
|
this name space pollution.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (19 January 2004)
|
|
- David Byron cleaned up how --trace with no option was treated, and also
|
|
arguments in a config file without a required parameter!
|
|
|
|
Daniel (16 January 2004)
|
|
- Gisle Vanem fixed a few issues where compilers warned about variables
|
|
possibly being used unassigned.
|
|
|
|
- Minor Interix build problem fixed.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (15 January 2004)
|
|
- Peter Sylvester pointed out some necessary escaping needed in the
|
|
acinclude.m4 file when automake 1.8 or later is used.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (14 January 2004)
|
|
- Vincent Bronner fixed the Curl_resolv() return code. This extends the fix
|
|
Steve Green provided on december 3...
|
|
|
|
Daniel (13 January 2004)
|
|
- Luke Call made the win32 version of the password prompting function support
|
|
backspace.
|
|
|
|
- Dan Fandrich fixed the hugehelp source file to contain both a compressed and
|
|
an uncompressed version in the distribution, so that more people easier can
|
|
build curl with the compressed version.
|
|
|
|
- Diego Casorran brought another AmigaOS build patch for native Amiga builds.
|
|
|
|
- Matt Veenstra updated the Mac OS X framework files.
|
|
|
|
- Brian R Duffy brought a section to the INSTALL file on how to build a
|
|
SSL-enabled curl using the free Borland C++ compiler. He also updated the
|
|
Borland lib/Makefile.b32.
|
|
|
|
- I fixed the test case 509 which I broke yesterday. Now the libtest are
|
|
compiled with an include path that points to the library's source dir, so
|
|
that the libtests can include files from the source tree. This was made to
|
|
make it possible to use the USE_SSLEAY define in the library test files.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (12 January 2004)
|
|
- Peter Sylvester brought code that now allows a callback to modified the URL
|
|
even when the multi interface is used, and then libcurl will simulate a
|
|
"follow location" to that new URL. Test 509 was added to test this feature.
|
|
|
|
- Extended the time we retry servers in the test script, and I also made it
|
|
retry the https and ftps servers before they are considered bad. I believe
|
|
the previous approach could turn problematic on really slow hosts.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.11.0-pre1 (12 January 2004)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (11 January 2004)
|
|
- Dominick Meglio pointed out FTPS should use default port 990 according to
|
|
IANA.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (8 January 2004)
|
|
- Fixed the SPNEGO configure check to not use -R or other non-portable options
|
|
in the LDFLAGS. Reported by Pierre in bug report #872930.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (5 January 2004)
|
|
- Dan Fandrich provided a fix on our zlib usage.
|
|
|
|
- David J Meyer's patch that introduce large file support to libcurl was
|
|
applied. New curl_easy_setopt options that accept 'off_t' arguments are:
|
|
|
|
INFILESIZE_LARGE
|
|
RESUME_FROM_LARGE
|
|
MAXFILESIZE_LARGE
|
|
|
|
Daniel (4 January 2004)
|
|
- Based on Dominick Meglio's comments, I made our private version of
|
|
gettimeofday() declared static. This would otherwise collide with the same
|
|
function in other libs (like ares for example).
|
|
|
|
- Added Dominick Meglio's description on how to build libcurl with ares
|
|
on win32.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (19 December)
|
|
- CURLOPT_IPRESOLVE was not possible to set.
|
|
|
|
- Gisle Vanem updated the djgpp build files.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (18 December)
|
|
- John McGowan reported a redirect-problem that happened if a site used a URL
|
|
like "url.com?var=content" (without a proper slash) and from that address
|
|
redirected the user-agent to an absolute directory.
|
|
|
|
- David Byron made libcurl build fine with both the .NET and VC6 versions of
|
|
MSVC
|
|
|
|
Daniel (16 December)
|
|
- Updated test 506 since it started to fail after the cache prune change
|
|
yesterday. I also changed it slightly to feature a counter in each debug
|
|
output for easier tracing.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (15 December)
|
|
- Old DNS cache entries are now only pruned after curl is done with a request,
|
|
and not in the actual name resolve call.
|
|
|
|
- corrected the --enable-ares patch
|
|
|
|
- Giuseppe Attardi found and fixed a problem within libcurl that re-used
|
|
already freed memory.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (10 December)
|
|
- Gisle Vanem reported that the dict support was broken. I broke it during my
|
|
ftps-changes overhaul. I've now added a 'curlassert' function that can be
|
|
used to verify expressions, to prevent future errors of the same
|
|
kind. They're only present in debug-builds.
|
|
|
|
- Diego Casorran made curl and libcurl possible to build natively (no more
|
|
need for the ixemul library) on AmigaOS.
|
|
|
|
- Dominick Meglio made configure --enable-ares support a given path to the
|
|
installed ares lib, instead of always using it in the curl source tree.
|
|
This also fixed the curl-config --libs output.
|
|
|
|
- Eric S. Raymond patched a very minor man page format error in
|
|
libcurl-errors.3
|
|
|
|
Daniel (8 December)
|
|
- Fixed the flaw that made -lz appear twice on the link command line.
|
|
|
|
- After correspondance with Gisle Vanem, I changed the 'connection aborted'
|
|
error text when the FTP response reader failed to more specificly identify
|
|
what the problem is.
|
|
|
|
- Based on a patch from Dominick Meglio, curl-config --feature now outputs
|
|
'AsynchDNS' as a feature if libcurl was built with ares. The feature name
|
|
is the same that 'curl -V' outputs, for simplicity.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (3 December)
|
|
- Marty Kuhrt made the build up-to-date on VMS, and moved most of the VMS-
|
|
specific stuff in the client code to a separate header file.
|
|
|
|
- Steve Green fixed a return code bug in Curl_resolv(), that made the socks5
|
|
code fail.
|
|
|
|
- swalkaus at yahoo.com patched libcurl to ignore Content-Length: headers
|
|
when Tranfer-Encoding: chunked is used, as mandated by RFC2616.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (2 December)
|
|
- --ftp-pasv was added, which serves the only purpose of overriding a
|
|
previously set --ftpport option. Starting now, --ftp-port is a recognized
|
|
alias for --ftpport for consistency.
|
|
|
|
- Giuseppe Attardi pointed out that we should use MSG_NOSIGNAL when we use
|
|
send() and recv(). I added checks for the define in the configure script and
|
|
adjusted the code accordingly. If the symbol is present, we won't attempt
|
|
to ignore the SIGPIPE signal.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (1 December)
|
|
- Mathias Axelsson set up a bsdftpd-ssl server for me and I could make curl
|
|
run fine against its FTPS implementation. Now these FTPS-related things
|
|
work:
|
|
o explicit and implicit FTPS
|
|
o active (PORT) and passive (PASV)
|
|
o upload and download
|
|
o verified against bsdftpd-ssl and RaidenFTPD
|
|
|
|
Daniel (27 November)
|
|
- James Clancy made the Borland Makefiles up to date.
|
|
|
|
- Markus Moeller improved the SPNEGO detection in the configure script.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (25 November)
|
|
- Dave May filed bug report #848371, identifying that if you'd do POST over a
|
|
proxy to a https server, libcurl didn't POST at all, it just made a GET! It
|
|
turned out to be because libcurl wrongly didn't consider the authentication
|
|
"negotiation phase" to be complete yet.
|
|
|
|
I added test case 95 to verify my fix for this.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (24 November)
|
|
- Thanks to Mathias Axelsson, I've been able to work on FTPS for libcurl and it
|
|
seems to work somewhat fine now.
|
|
|
|
The FTPS stuff is based on RFC2228 and the murray-auth-ftp-ssl draft
|
|
(version 12). There seems to exist quite a few servers that have implemented
|
|
the server side of this.
|
|
|
|
We can now use ftps:// URLs to explicitly switch on SSL/TSL for the control
|
|
connection and the data connection (dealing with two SSL connections forced
|
|
me to change a lot of stuff in libcurl).
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, and what seems to be the recommended way, we can set the new
|
|
option CURLOPT_FTP_SSL to one of these values:
|
|
|
|
CURLFTPSSL_NOPE, - do not attempt to use SSL
|
|
CURLFTPSSL_TRY - try using SSL, proceed anyway otherwise
|
|
CURLFTPSSL_CONTROL - SSL for the control connection or fail
|
|
CURLFTPSSL_ALL - SSL for all communication or fail
|
|
|
|
Any failure to set the desired level will make libcurl fail with the error
|
|
code CURLE_FTP_SSL_FAILED. This new option makes a "normal" ftp:// transfer
|
|
attempt to be made securely.
|
|
|
|
I've been able to login and get files (passively) from Mathias' server using
|
|
both ftps:// and CURLOPT_FTP_SSL. (I've made 'curl' understand the --ftp-ssl
|
|
option that sets CURLFTPSSL_TRY.)
|
|
|
|
- Gaz Iqbal fixed a range string memory leak.
|
|
|
|
- Gisle Vanem fixed the Windows builds.
|
|
|
|
- Added the new FTPSSL defines in curl/curl.h
|
|
|
|
Daniel (20 November)
|
|
- Josh Kapell filed bug report #845247 as he found an endless loop when
|
|
getting a 407 back from a proxy when no user+password was given. Added test
|
|
case 94 to verify the fix.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (19 November)
|
|
- Kevin Roth fixed a progress-bar problem on Windows.
|
|
|
|
- While working with Nicolas Croiset's bug report #843739, I noticed two minor
|
|
problems related to ftp partial downloads: if a partial transfer is
|
|
detected, we must close the connection as we cannot know in what state it is
|
|
anymore. This looks like a ProFTPD bug:
|
|
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2003-11/0079.html
|
|
|
|
Daniel (17 November)
|
|
- Maciej W. Rozycki made the configure script use a cache variable for the
|
|
writable argv test. This way, the default can be overridden better (for
|
|
cross-compiles etc)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (15 November)
|
|
- Mathias Axelsson found out libcurl sometimes freed the server certificate
|
|
twice, leading to crashes!
|
|
|
|
Daniel (14 November)
|
|
- Siddhartha Prakash Jain found a case with a bad resolve that we didn't
|
|
properly bail out from, when using ares.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (13 November)
|
|
- Default Content-Type for parts in multipart formposts has changed to
|
|
"application/octet-stream". This seems more appropriate, and I believe
|
|
mozilla and the likes do this. In the same area: .html files now get
|
|
text/html as Content-Type. (Pointed out in bug report #839806)
|
|
|
|
- Gisle Vanem corrected the --progress-bar output by doing a flush of the
|
|
output, which apparently makes it look better on at least windows, but
|
|
possibly other platforms too.
|
|
|
|
- Peter Sylvester identified a problem in the connect code, which made the
|
|
multi interface on a ipv6-enabled solaris box do bad. Test case 504 to be
|
|
specific. I've spent some time to clean-up the Curl_connecthost() function
|
|
now to use less duplicated code for the two different sections: ipv6 and
|
|
ipv4.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (11 November)
|
|
- Added CURLOPT_NETRC_FILE. Use this to tell libcurl which file to use instead
|
|
of trying to find a .netrc in the current user's home directory. The
|
|
existing .netrc file finder is somewhat naive and is far from perfect on
|
|
several platforms that aren't unix-style. If this option isn't set when
|
|
CURLOPT_NETRC is set, the previous approach will still be used.
|
|
|
|
The current .netrc check code now also support longer than 256 bytes path
|
|
names.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (10 November)
|
|
- Kang-Jin Lee pointed out that the generated ca-bundle.h file shouldn't be
|
|
written in the source dir if a different build dir is used.
|
|
|
|
- After Sébastien Willemijns' bug report, we now check the separators properly
|
|
in the 229-reply servers respond on a EPSV command and bail out better if
|
|
the reply string is not RFC2428-compliant.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (7 November)
|
|
- Based on Gisle Vanem's patch, I made curl try harder to get the home
|
|
directory of the current user, in order to find the default .curlrc file.
|
|
We're also considering moving out the HOME-dir code from libcurl, and
|
|
instead have the app pass in the path to the .netrc file (which is the only
|
|
logic left in libcurl that uses the HOME dir). Then curl can use the home
|
|
dir for that purpose too.
|
|
|
|
- Ralph Mitchell's updated testcurl.sh to the script to take an existing
|
|
directory name and build/run/test curl in there instead of trying to update
|
|
from CVS. Using this approach, the script can now be used to test daily
|
|
tarballs etc.
|
|
|
|
- Gisle Vanem added a "resource file" to the Windows DLL builds, to contain
|
|
information such as version number, library name, copyright info etc.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (6 November)
|
|
- curl checks if the existing libcurl supports things like --ntlm, --negotiate
|
|
and --krb4 and returns error if not.
|
|
|
|
- I added three new global defines in the curl/curl.h header:
|
|
LIBCURL_VERSION_MAJOR, LIBCURL_VERSION_MINOR and LIBCURL_VERSION_PATCH. They
|
|
are the three numbers in the library's version number, separated for easier
|
|
usage. 'maketgz' was updated accordingly to generate these numbers properly
|
|
when building release-archives.
|
|
|
|
- Uninitialized variable fix, reported by both Marty Kuhrt and Benjamin
|
|
Gerard.
|
|
|
|
- Matt Veenstra provided build files to build libcurl as a "framework" under
|
|
Mac OS X. See the lib/libcurl.framework.make for details.
|
|
|
|
- Removed the defines of TRUE and FALSE from the curl/curl.h header file.
|
|
They're not in our name space so we should not fiddle with them.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (5 November)
|
|
- Replaced the man page to HTML converter program with a new one: roffit.
|
|
Makes nicer web pages.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (4 November)
|
|
- Troels Walsted Hansen fixed the MSVC makefiles to let them build curl fine
|
|
on Windows.
|
|
|
|
- Kevin Roth corrected the cygwin package generator and spell-fixed the
|
|
comment in the ca-bundle.h file.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.8 (1 November 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (31 October)
|
|
- Assume that MDTM on an FTP server returns the timestamp using the UTC time
|
|
zone. This changes the time CURLINFO_FILETIME returns for a given file over
|
|
FTP, and will change existing uses of CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION. It will make
|
|
the functionality more similar to how the HTTP one is already working.
|
|
|
|
- Command line options that take numerical parameters (such as -y, -Y, -C etc)
|
|
now report error and exit if the parameter isn't truly a number greater than
|
|
or equal to zero. This helps users to notice bad usage earlier. Before, when
|
|
a user forgot or missed to add a numerical parameter to an option, the
|
|
command line parser would simply "eat" the following option and it would
|
|
cause great confusion.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (30 October)
|
|
- David Hull made libcurl deal with NOBODY and HEADER for file:// the same way
|
|
it already does for FTP: it provides HTTP-looking headers that provide info
|
|
only about the file, without doing the actual transfer. The curl tool then
|
|
lets --head do this.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (29 October)
|
|
- runtests.pl now checks for and use valgrind if present. It will redirect the
|
|
valgrind results in log/valgrind[num] but it currently doesn't scan that
|
|
file for any errors or anything, that is still only made manually.
|
|
|
|
- David Hull made the file: URL parser also accept the somewhat sloppy file
|
|
syntax: file:/path. I added test case 203 to verify this.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (28 October)
|
|
- Dan C tracked down yet another weird behavior in the glibc gethostbyname_r()
|
|
function for some specific versions (reported on 2.2.5 and 2.1.1), and
|
|
provided a fix. On Linux machines with these glibc versioins, non-ipv6
|
|
builds of libcurl would often fail to resolve perfectly resolvable host
|
|
names.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (26 October)
|
|
- James Bursa found out that curl_msnprintf() could write the trailing
|
|
zero-byte outside its given buffer size. This could happen if you generated
|
|
a very long error message as then libcurl would overwrite the ERRORBUFFER
|
|
with one byte. Using a non-existing very long local file:// name is one case
|
|
that could make this occur.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (24 October)
|
|
- David Hull filed bug report #829827. It identified a problem with -C - if
|
|
the full file already was downloaded and thus the server responded with a
|
|
416. libcurl would then wrongly use the Content-Length: header and expect
|
|
that size to get transfer, causing a "hang" until the server closed the
|
|
connection and then an error 18 ("still N bytes data left of the transfer").
|
|
|
|
Now we don't return any error at all, but I think libcurl should perhaps
|
|
return some kind of info since the requested range was out of the size of
|
|
the document.
|
|
|
|
- Based on David Hull's fix in bug report #804599, we now check for solaris and
|
|
gcc in configure and set the -mimpure-text link flag for linking the lib
|
|
better.
|
|
|
|
- I've introduced a -t option to the runtests.pl script. With that option set,
|
|
the script runs special "memory torture" tests. For each test command line
|
|
in that section, the script first runs the command line and counts the total
|
|
amount of allocations made. It then runs the exact same command line again,
|
|
forcing allocation number N to fail. It will try every N from 1 to the total
|
|
number of amounts made. For every invoke, it checks that no memory was
|
|
leaked as that would indicate a bad cleanup somewhere in the code.
|
|
|
|
This is just beginning to work, and I've already made some corrections in
|
|
libcurl code. When this code works somewhat fine, I'll make sure 'make test'
|
|
in the root dir will run these tests as well.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (23 October)
|
|
- Georg Horn fixed how the CA verification is made. Verifications can now be
|
|
made while at the same time the result of it can be ignored. This also
|
|
affects the curl tool as -k can now be used together with --cacert or
|
|
--capath.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (22 October)
|
|
- Gisle Vanem found out --disable-eprt didn't work and patched it.
|
|
|
|
- Test case 91 was modified and could now repeat the problem Kevin Roth has
|
|
reported, and the bug was fixed.
|
|
|
|
- Dylan Ellicott added vc-libcurl-ssl-dll as a target to the root makefile
|
|
to build a static libcurl that links with a shared OpenSSL using MSVC.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (21 October)
|
|
- Andrés García updated the mingw32 makefiles.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.8-pre5 (21 October 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (19 October)
|
|
- Georg Horn made libcurl output more info on SSL failures when receiving
|
|
data.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.8-pre4 (18 October 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (17 October)
|
|
- Dominick Meglio implemented CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE and --max-filesize.
|
|
|
|
- Made libcurl show verbose info about what auth type and user name that is
|
|
being sent in its HTTP request-headers.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (16 October)
|
|
- Removed support for CURLOPT_PASSWDFUNCTION and CURLOPT_PASSWDDATA. libcurl
|
|
no longer prompt for passwords under any circumstances. Password prompting
|
|
was instead moved to curl, which now prompts for password if -u or -U lack
|
|
it. This solves the problem Kevin Roth reported when curl prompted for
|
|
password twice when doing NTLM authentication.
|
|
|
|
- I rewrote the SSL subjectAltName check to avoid having to rely on OpenLDAP-
|
|
licensed derivate code.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (15 October)
|
|
- Avoid doing getsockopt() on Windows to verify connects. It seems that this
|
|
hogs Windows machines when libcurl is being used multi-threaded (with > ~50
|
|
threads). Andrew Fuller helped us verify and test this.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (14 October)
|
|
- Kimmo Kinnunen fixed a crash with duphandle() when CURLDEBUG is set.
|
|
|
|
- Gisle Vanem made libcurl build and work with IPv6 on Windows.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (13 October)
|
|
- Giuseppe Attardi reported yet another segfault with ares and the multi
|
|
interface. Me fixed.
|
|
|
|
- Domenico Andreoli removed the extra LDFLAGS assignment in lib/Makefile.am
|
|
that was reported about in the debian bug report #212086.
|
|
|
|
Domenico also fixed two makefiles where we used 'gnroff' instead of the more
|
|
portable $(NROFF).
|
|
|
|
Daniel (12 October)
|
|
- Dirk Manske made the share locking around DNS lookups slightly different to
|
|
allow the share system's DNS lookups to run somewhat more
|
|
independent/faster.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (9 October)
|
|
- Lachlan O'Dea fixed a resume problem: "If I set CURLOPT_RESUME_FROM, perform
|
|
an HTTP download, then reset CURLOPT_RESUME_FROM to 0, the next download
|
|
still has a Range header with a garbage value." bug report #820502
|
|
|
|
- Dominick Meglio made the inet_pton.c file build fine using MSVC.
|
|
|
|
- The 'sws' test suite web server now #include setup.h from the lib directory.
|
|
This makes it more portable easier.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.8-pre3 (8 October 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (8 October)
|
|
- Frank Ticheler provided a patch that fixes how libcurl connects to multiple
|
|
addresses, if one of them fails (ipv4-code).
|
|
|
|
Daniel (7 October)
|
|
- Neil Dunbar provided a patch that now makes libcurl check SSL
|
|
subjectAltNames when matching certs. This is apparently detailed in RFC2818
|
|
as the right thing to do. I had to add configure checks for inet_pton() and
|
|
our own (strictly speaking, code from BIND written by Paul Vixie) provided
|
|
code for the function for platforms that miss it.
|
|
|
|
- HTTP POST using the read callback didn't work, as Florian Schoppmann
|
|
reported.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (5 October)
|
|
- Shared provided a few fixes to make libcurl build on BeOS
|
|
out-of-the-box. New code for BeOS-style non-blocking sockets, provided by
|
|
Shard and Jeremy Friesner. Modified the autoconf check for non-blocking
|
|
sockets to check for this kind too.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (4 October)
|
|
- Vincent Bronner pointed out that if you set CURLOPT_COOKIE for a transfer
|
|
and then set it to NULL in a subsequent one, the previous cookie was still
|
|
sent off!
|
|
|
|
- Jon Turner fixed a problem libcurl had when it failed on an FTP transfer due
|
|
to a bad path, it would cause the next transfer to use a bad path as well.
|
|
|
|
- Siddhartha Prakash Jain provided a patch with a fix for libcurl with ares,
|
|
when working on IP-only names as we then could return "wait" status when the
|
|
name in fact already was resolved. I edited the patch slightly to not expose
|
|
async details to non-ares aware source code.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (3 October)
|
|
- Neil Spring posted the debian bug report #213180, and pointed out that using
|
|
the name 'access' in a function prototype is not very wise as some compilers
|
|
complain.
|
|
|
|
- Peter Sylvester provided his and Jean-Paul Merlin's curlx.c example source
|
|
code that shows how they use ssl and callbacks.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (2 October)
|
|
- James MacMillan's patch makes curl build on QNX 6.2.x.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (26 September)
|
|
- My daughter was born!
|
|
|
|
Daniel (23 September)
|
|
- Added support for -4/--ipv4 and -6/--ipv6 to force names to resolve to that
|
|
particular IP version. They only work for IPv6-enabled libcurls.
|
|
|
|
- curl -V now outputs 'SPNEGO' as a feature in case libcurl was built to
|
|
support that.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.8-pre2 (22 September 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (22 September)
|
|
- Giuseppe Attardi found a segfault in libcurl when using the multi interface
|
|
with ares and doing repeated operations against a non-resolving host name.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (19 September)
|
|
- Added the CURLOPT_IPRESOLVE option, that allows an application to select
|
|
what kind of IP addresses he wants to use when resolving host names. This
|
|
is only interesting when using host names that resolve addresses using more
|
|
than one version of IP.
|
|
|
|
- Applied Markus Moeller's patch that introduces SPNEGO support if libcurl
|
|
is built with the FBopenssl libraries. curl_version_info() now returns
|
|
info on SPNEGO availability. The patch also made the GSSAPI stuff work fine
|
|
with the MIT GSS-library (the Heimdal one still works too).
|
|
|
|
Daniel (16 September)
|
|
- Doing PUT with --digest failed, as reported in bug report #805853.
|
|
|
|
- Using --anyauth that picked NTLM, and then a redirect closed the connection
|
|
and took curl to a second NTLM page made curl fail. Bug report #806328
|
|
identified the problem, test case 90 was added to verify the fix.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (14 September)
|
|
- codemastr brought a patch for ares to make the Windows portions of it work
|
|
properly on NT4. I uploaded a new diff and updated the docs on where to get
|
|
it etc.
|
|
|
|
- Jeff Pohlmeyer tracked down a very hard-to-find bug where we removed a
|
|
cached DNS entry even though it may be in use, which caused "random" memory
|
|
to get overwritten and thus "random" crashes.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (12 September)
|
|
- Based on a bug report by David Kimdon, I made the runtests.pl script clear
|
|
all possible proxy environment variables before the tests are run.
|
|
|
|
- By default, easy handles within a multi handle now share DNS cache.
|
|
|
|
- Tim Bartley brought a patch that makes the GSSNEGOTIATE option work for
|
|
Microsoft's "Negotiate" authentication as well.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (11 September)
|
|
- A zero-length proxy string confused FTP transfers.
|
|
|
|
- Bjorn Reese found a case with an uninitialized pointer, only present when
|
|
built for ares.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.8-pre1 (8 September 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (7 September)
|
|
- Jurij Smakov found out that the non-OpenSSL MD5 code was not working on
|
|
Alpha (or ia64). Only the OpenSSL-version did. I made a fix I think corrects
|
|
the problem.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (5 September)
|
|
- Kevin Fisk reported that configure --enable-thread didn't work. I fixed.
|
|
|
|
- De-macrofied the lib/hash.c source code somewhat.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (4 September)
|
|
- CURLINFO_HTTPAUTH_AVAIL and CURLINFO_PROXYAUTH_AVAIL added, Based on Joerg
|
|
Mueller-Tolk's patch,
|
|
|
|
Early (4 September)
|
|
- Added CURLOPT_FTP_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT - allows user to set strict timeout
|
|
requirements on the FTP server's ability to respond to individual commands
|
|
without placing global requirements on transfer or connect time. Files
|
|
affected:
|
|
- include/curl/curl.h
|
|
Added option CURLOPT_FTP_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT
|
|
- lib/ftp.c
|
|
Added branch inside Curl_GetFTPResponse to check for
|
|
data->set.ftp_response_timeout
|
|
- lib/url.c
|
|
Modified Curl_setopt to recognize CURLOPT_FTP_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT
|
|
- lib/urldata.h
|
|
Added ftp_response_timeout to struct UserDefined
|
|
|
|
Daniel (3 September)
|
|
- Peter Pentchev found and fixed two problems in the test suite's web server
|
|
code, that made it segfault at times.
|
|
|
|
- Jörg Mueller-Tolk improved the proxy user+password handling, especially
|
|
when providing a blank password.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (2 September)
|
|
- Fix for making CONNECT to proxies do the correct magic to allow NTLM, Digest
|
|
and similar to work.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (1 September)
|
|
- Henrik Storner made libcurl work fine with OpenLDAP 2.1.22 (current).
|
|
|
|
- Jeff Pohlmeyer added a proper error message for non-resolving hosts when
|
|
using ares for lookups.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (25 August)
|
|
- John McGowan reported that curl -k still failed if the HTTPS server's CN
|
|
field wasn't obtainable. This was due to the CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST being
|
|
set to 1, and libcurl failed if the CN was missing. Starting now, having it
|
|
set to 1 will simply output a warning if no CN could be obtained (as having
|
|
a mismatch is OK).
|
|
|
|
Daniel (21 August)
|
|
- Vincent Sanders provided a fix for name resolving when linked with uClibc.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (20 August)
|
|
- Gerd v. Egidy provided a patch that makes libcurl store the FTP response
|
|
code from ftp servers. Using curl_easy_getinfo() with CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE
|
|
returns that data. The option is therefore now also known as
|
|
CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE.
|
|
|
|
- Antoine Calando found a segfault when doing multi-part/formpost using
|
|
the multi interface.
|
|
|
|
- Antoine Calando pointed out that curl_multi_info_read() didn't set the
|
|
msgs_in_queue to 0 properly when returning NULL.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (19 August)
|
|
- I made curl support multiple -T options, as well as -T "{file1,file2}"
|
|
style globbing. One -T for each URL is supported.
|
|
|
|
- Jeff Pohlmeyer found a segfault when using ares-enabled libcurl and the
|
|
multi interface when trying a non-existing host name.
|
|
|
|
- Made the libcurl printf code support long longs if available.
|
|
|
|
- Loren Kirkby pointed out that we did not clean up all SSL-allocated memory
|
|
in curl_global_cleanup().
|
|
|
|
Daniel (17 August)
|
|
- Setting CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION or CURLOPT_READFUNCTION to NULL will now make
|
|
them get the internal defaults restored. Previously this could cause a
|
|
segfault. We should aim at having all pointer-related options get restored
|
|
to default/safe values when set to NULL.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.7 (15 August 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (14 August)
|
|
- I modified the memdebug system to return failure on memory allocation
|
|
functions after a set amount of successful ones. This enables us to test
|
|
out-of-memory situations in a controlled manner and we can make sure that
|
|
curl/libcurl behaves good in those.
|
|
|
|
This made me find and fix several spots where we did not cleanup properly
|
|
when bailing out due to errors (low memory).
|
|
|
|
- Corrected test case 74. Made using -o with bad #[num] codes complain and
|
|
bail out. Made #[num] support numbers larger than 9 as well. Added test
|
|
case 86 for a proper range globbing test as well.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.7-pre4 (12 August 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (12 August)
|
|
- curl_version_info() now returns a flag if libcurl was built with asynch DNS
|
|
support, and this is now also displayed with 'curl -V'.
|
|
|
|
- Added a few new man pages to the docs/libcurl dir: curl_share_init,
|
|
curl_share_setopt, curl_share_cleanup, libcurl-easy and libcurl-share.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (11 August)
|
|
- Mike Cherepov made the local binding code work for Windows, which makes
|
|
the option CURLOPT_INTERFACE work on Windows as well.
|
|
|
|
- Vincent Sanders updated the fopen.c example code a lot.
|
|
|
|
- --proxy-ntlm is now supported by the curl tool. It forces the proxy
|
|
authentication to be made using NTLM. It does not yet work for HTTPS over
|
|
proxies (or other proxy-tunneling options). Test case 81 and 82 do some
|
|
simple initial ntlm testing.
|
|
|
|
- Found and fixed a minor memory leak on re-used connections with
|
|
proxy-authentication.
|
|
|
|
- I removed -@ and -Z as valid short options. They were very rarely used (@
|
|
wasn't even documented).
|
|
|
|
- Serge Semashko introduced CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH, and make it work when set to
|
|
CURLAUTH_NTLM and/or CURLAUTH_BASIC. The PROXAUTH is similar to HTTPAUTH,
|
|
but is for the proxy connection only, and HTTPAUTH is for the remote host.
|
|
|
|
- Fixed loading of cookies with blank contents from a cookie jar. Also made the
|
|
cookie functions inform on added and skipped cookies (for cookie debugging).
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.7-pre3 (8 August 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (8 August)
|
|
- Applied David Byron's fix for file:// URLs with drive letters included.
|
|
|
|
- I added the --ftp-create-dirs to the client code, which activates Early's
|
|
CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS option, and wrote test case 147 to verify
|
|
it. Added the option to the curl.1 man page too. Added the option to the
|
|
curl_easy_setopt.3 man page too.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (7 August)
|
|
- Test case 60 failed on ia64 and AMD Opteron. Fixed now.
|
|
|
|
- Fixed a printf problem that resulted in urlglobbing bugs (bug #203827 in the
|
|
debian bug tracker). Added test case 74 to verify the fix and to discover if
|
|
this breaks in the future.
|
|
|
|
- "make distcheck" works again.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.7-pre2 (6 August 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (5 August)
|
|
- Duncan Wilcox helped me verify that the latest incarnation of my ares patch
|
|
builds fine on Mac OS X (see the new lib/README.ares) file for all details.
|
|
|
|
- Salvatore Sorrentino filed bug report #783116 and Early Ehlinger posted a
|
|
bug report to the libcurl list, both identifying a problem with FTP
|
|
persitent connections and how the dir hiearchy was not properly reset
|
|
between files.
|
|
|
|
- David Byron's thoughts on a fixed Makefile in tests/ were applied.
|
|
|
|
- Jan Sundin reported a case where curl ignored a cookie that browsers don't,
|
|
which turned up to be due to the number of dots in the 'domain'. I've now
|
|
made curl follow the the original netscape cookie spec less strict on that
|
|
part.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (4 August)
|
|
- Dirk Manske added cookie support for the experimental, hidden and still
|
|
undocumented share feature!
|
|
|
|
- Mark Fletcher provided an excellent bug report that identified a problem
|
|
with FOLLOWLOCATION and chunked transfer-encoding, as libcurl would not
|
|
properly ignore the body contents of 3XX response that included the
|
|
Location: header.
|
|
|
|
Early (6 August)
|
|
- Added option CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS
|
|
This option will force the target file's path to be created if it
|
|
does not already exist on the remote system.
|
|
|
|
Files affected:
|
|
- include/curl/curl.h
|
|
Added option CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS
|
|
- lib/ftp.c
|
|
Added function ftp_mkd, which issues a MKD command
|
|
Added function ftp_force_cwd, which attempts a CWD,
|
|
and does a MKD and retries the CWD if the original CWD
|
|
fails
|
|
Modified ftp_perform() to call its change directory function
|
|
through a pointer. The pointer points to ftp_cwd by default,
|
|
and is modified to point to ftp_force_cwd IFF
|
|
data->set.ftp_create_missing_dirs is not 0.
|
|
- lib/url.c
|
|
Modified Curl_setopt to recognize CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS
|
|
- lib/urldata.h
|
|
Added ftp_create_missing_dirs to struct UserDefined
|
|
|
|
- Minor Bugfix for CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION with FTP - if the file was not
|
|
present to do the time comparison, it would fail.
|
|
Files affected:
|
|
- lib/ftp.c
|
|
In ftp_perform(), the call to ftp_getfiletime() used to be followed
|
|
by
|
|
if (result)
|
|
return result;
|
|
And then by the code that actually did the time comparison.
|
|
The code that did the comparison handled the case where the filetime
|
|
was not available (as indicated by info.filetime < 0 or set.timevalue
|
|
< 0), so I replaced the if (result) return result with a switch(result)
|
|
that allows CURLE_FTP_COULDNT_RETR_FILE to fall through to the
|
|
normal time comparison.

|
|
- When proxy authentication is used in a CONNECT request (as used for all SSL
|
|
connects and otherwise enforced tunnel-thru-proxy requests), the same
|
|
authentication header is also wrongly sent to the remote host.
|
|
|
|
This is a rather significant info leak. I've fixed it now and mailed a patch
|
|
and warning to the mailing lists.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (1 August)
|
|
- David Byron provided a patch to make 7.10.6 build correctly with the
|
|
compressed hugehelp.c source file.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.7-pre1 (31 July 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (30 July)
|
|
- Jörg Müller-Tolk updated the VC makefile.
|
|
|
|
- Daniel Noguerol made the ftp code output "Accept-Ranges: bytes" in similar
|
|
style like other faked HTTP headers when NOBODY and HEADER are used. I
|
|
updated two corresponding test cases too.
|
|
|
|
- Marty Kuhrt pointed out a compilation problem on VMS due to my having
|
|
changed a type from long to time_t, and I'm now changing it back to work
|
|
more portably...
|
|
|
|
He also indicated that distributing the src/hugehelp.c in a compressed state
|
|
like I acccidentally did may not be the smartest move... I've now fixed the
|
|
distribute procudere to automaticly generate an uncompressed version when I
|
|
make release archives.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (29 July)
|
|
- Gisle Vanem brought changes to the mkhelp script for the generation of the
|
|
compressed help text on some platforms.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.6 (28 July 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (28 July)
|
|
- François Pons brought a patch that once again made curl deal with ftp and
|
|
"double slash" as indicating the root directory. In the RFC1738-fix of April
|
|
30, that ability was removed (since it is not the "right" way). So, starting
|
|
now we can list the root dir of an ftp server both these ways:
|
|
|
|
curl ftp://server.com/%2f as well as
|
|
curl ftp://server.com//
|
|
|
|
Daniel (24 July)
|
|
- Henry Bland pointed out that we included sys/resource.h without good reason
|
|
in several source files. Without it included, QNX builds better...
|
|
|
|
- Andrés García updated the mingw makefiles.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (23 July)
|
|
- Tracy Boehrer experienced DNS cache problems and did some nice debugging
|
|
and tracking which made it easy for me to correct the problem and Tracy
|
|
could verify that it did cure the problem! When re-using a connection we
|
|
now make sure we don't re-use the 'connect_addr' struct.
|
|
|
|
- Daniel Kouril corrected the GSS-Negotiate code.
|
|
|
|
- Juan F. Codagnone provided fixes to allow curl to build fine on Windows
|
|
again.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (22 July)
|
|
- Edited the curl/curl.h include file to build on Windows properly.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (21 July)
|
|
- Moved the proxy credentials from the SessionHandle struct to the connectdata
|
|
struct, to make multiple proxy connections with differerent user names work.
|
|
|
|
- Adjusted the NTLM code to support proxy functionality.
|
|
|
|
- Made the krb4 stuff compile with the user+password fields moved.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.6-pre4 (21 July 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (20 July)
|
|
- David Gardner pointed out in bug report 770755 that using the FTP command
|
|
CWD with a blank argument is a bad idea and I made libcurl skip empty path
|
|
segments starting now.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (18 July)
|
|
- Cris pointed out that my fix on July 16th didn't work fully. His pointing
|
|
out this (and his patch) also made me realize that we have a very similar
|
|
bug in the FTP connection re-use code. We must store a separate user and
|
|
password field for each connection we keep (at least for FTP and HTTP+NTLM
|
|
connections, so I made us do this unconditionally).
|
|
|
|
- Since NTLM authenticates connections instead of single requests, I had to
|
|
re-arrange how we store the NTLM data and I had to improve the test suite to
|
|
finally work properly with persistancy to make the NTLM tests run fine
|
|
again. This also forced me to have to update lots of HTTP test cases.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (16 July)
|
|
- Cris Bailiff's bug report 768275 pointed out that using Basic auth with
|
|
wrong user+password caused an endless loop. Fixed now. He also found out that
|
|
we didn't properly authenticate connections with NTLM. Fixed too.
|
|
|
|
- Dan Winship provided fixes for the NTLM code.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (5 July)
|
|
- Doug Kaufman provided additional fixes for the DOS port.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (4 July)
|
|
- Rick Richardson pointed out that using setvbuf() to achive non-buffering
|
|
on output is no-good for SCO Xenix and other unixes. We switched over to
|
|
using plain fflush() instead.
|
|
|
|
- Dan Grayson pointed out that we set the CURL_CA_BUNDLE variable wrongly in
|
|
the configure script, and I had to change some build stuff to make the new
|
|
way work.
|
|
|
|
- Peter Sylvester's patch was applied that introduces the following:
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION to set a callback that gets called with the
|
|
OpenSSL's ssl_ctx pointer passed in and allow a callback to act on it. If
|
|
anything but CURLE_OK is returned, that will also be returned by libcurl
|
|
all the way back. If this function changes the CURLOPT_URL, libcurl will
|
|
detect this and instead go use the new URL.
|
|
|
|
CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_DATA is a pointer you set to get passed to the callback set
|
|
with CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (1 July)
|
|
- David Byron provided a patch that allows a client to quit the test suite's
|
|
HTTP server.
|
|
|
|
- Gisle Vanem found and patched a lib handle leak in the ldap code.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (25 June)
|
|
- More NTLM-improvements. Less code. Smaller packets back and forth.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (23 June)
|
|
- Eric Glass provided us with a better doc on NTLM details, and I added more
|
|
comments and clarified the current code more. Using the new knowledge, we
|
|
should be able to make the NTLM stuff work even better.
|
|
Eric's original URL: http://davenport.sourceforge.net/ntlm.html
|
|
Version stored and provided at curl site: http://curl.haxx.se/rfc/ntlm.html
|
|
|
|
- Fixed the minor compile problems pre3 had if built without GSSAPI and/or
|
|
SSL.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.6-pre3 (19 June 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (19 June)
|
|
- Made curl use curl_free() on memory returned by curl_getenv(), as this
|
|
should theoreticly make it possibly to build and run curl and libcurl with
|
|
different memory allocation schemes with no problems.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (18 June)
|
|
- Improved the mkhelp.pl a bit further to make a nicer hugehelp text and to
|
|
include a better comment in the top for the gzip compressed version.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (17 June)
|
|
- CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH is now a bitmask, in which you set which authentication
|
|
type(s) you want to use. If more than one is set, libcurl will use one of
|
|
the selected one and the one it considers is more secure. Test case 67 and
|
|
68 (for NTLM) were fixed and we've reduced a round-trip for specific --ntlm
|
|
featches, and test case 69 and 70 were added for testing authentication
|
|
"picking". --anyauth is the new command line tool option, and I also added
|
|
--basic for completeness (that's the default type).
|
|
|
|
- Fixed the runtests.pl script to use the info provided by the new curl -V
|
|
output.
|
|
|
|
- --enable-debug now sets the CURLDEBUG define instead of MALLOCDEBUG, as it
|
|
is meant to be a generic debug conditional.
|
|
|
|
- curl_version_info() can now return CURL_VERSION_DEBUG as a feature bit, to
|
|
indicate that the library was built with CURLDEBUG set.
|
|
|
|
- Ralph Mitchell found out that some web applications very badly uses white
|
|
spaces in Location: redirects, and apparently IE is a browser (the only
|
|
one?) that supports this abomination. Based on Ralph's patch, I added code
|
|
that now attempts to replace white spaces with the proper "%20" or "+".
|
|
Test case 40 and 42 were added to verify my changes.
|
|
|
|
- curl -V now also outputs a list of features the available library offers (if
|
|
any).
|
|
|
|
- The curl_version() string now includes "GSS" if libcurl is built with GSSAPI
|
|
support.
|
|
|
|
- David Orrell reported that libcurl still crashed when sending HUGE requests
|
|
over HTTPS... I fixed.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.6-pre2 (16 June 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (16 June)
|
|
- curl_version_info() now returns bitmasked information weather NTLM and
|
|
GSSNEGOTIATE are supported, since it is doomed to vary on different
|
|
installatiions.
|
|
|
|
- I remade the HTTP Digest code to use the MD5-code provided by OpenSSL if
|
|
that is present, and only use our own MD5-code if it isn't.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (13 June)
|
|
- More NTLM help, fixes and patches from Cris Bailiff.
|
|
|
|
- Marty Kuhrt brought include fixes for making VMS builds warning-free.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (12 June)
|
|
- NTLM authentication works somewhat against the test servers provided by
|
|
Mathias Axelsson and Cris Bailiff. Use by setting CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH to
|
|
CURLAUTH_NTLM to libcurl, or --ntlm for the curl tool. Test case 67 and 68
|
|
were added for this. NTLM-support requires OpenSSL.
|
|
|
|
- Dan Fandrich provided a patch, that granted that gzip and libz are available
|
|
at build-time, compresses the hugehelp text in the curl command line and
|
|
uncompresses it at request. Saves some ~60K in the final output executable.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (11 June)
|
|
- Long day of fighting the NTLM demons.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (10 June)
|
|
- Modified how to set auth type to libcurl. Now use CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH instead,
|
|
and pick method. Supported ones currently are:
|
|
CURLAUTH_BASIC - default selection
|
|
CURLAUTH_DIGEST - formerly CURLOPT_HTTPDIGEST
|
|
CURLAUTH_GSSNEGOTIATE
|
|
|
|
- Daniel Kouril added HTTP GSS-Negotiate authentication support, as defined in
|
|
the IETF draft draft-brezak-spnego-http-04.txt. In use already by various
|
|
Microsoft web applications. --negotiate is the new family member. To take
|
|
advantage of this, you need one of these packages:
|
|
|
|
o Heimdal Kerberos5 http://www.pdc.kth.se/heimdal/heimdal.html
|
|
o GSSAPI from Globus http://www.globus.org/
|
|
o GSSAPI libraries from MIT Kerberos5 http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/www/
|
|
|
|
- A missing ending bracket (']') while doing URL globbing could lead to a
|
|
segfault. While fixing this, I also introduced better error reporting in the
|
|
globbing code. (All this is application code outside libcurl.)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (6 June)
|
|
- David Orrell found out that sending a huge GET request over HTTPS could
|
|
make libcurl fail and return an error code.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (2 June)
|
|
- Richard Bramante found out that "Content-Length: 0" was not properly used by
|
|
libcurl if the response-headers indicated that the connection would be
|
|
closed.
|
|
|
|
- David Byron's patch was applied, that makes the --progress-bar take the
|
|
local size into account when doing resumed downloads.
|
|
|
|
- Feedback from Serge Semashko made me change the error message returned when
|
|
CURLE_HTTP_RETURNED_ERROR is returned.
|
|
|
|
- Anonymous in bug report #745122 pointed out that we should really be using
|
|
SSL_CTX_set_options(... SSL_OP_ALL) to work around flaws in existing SSL
|
|
implementations.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (27 May)
|
|
- Andreas Ley and Rich Gray helped me point out that no version of HP-UX has
|
|
the sys/select.h header file so including it unconditionally in curl/multi.h
|
|
is not a good thing. Now we check for HPUX and avoid using that header on
|
|
such systems.
|
|
|
|
- Rudy Koento experienced problems with curl's recent habit of POSTing data in
|
|
two separate send() calls, first the headers and then the data. I've now
|
|
made a fix that for static and known content that is less than 100K in size,
|
|
everything is now sent in one single system call again. This is also better
|
|
for network performance reasons.
|
|
|
|
- I modified the main makefile to not build the test suite and a few other
|
|
unnecessary things by default. Now, the test suite is built when 'make test'
|
|
is run. This reduces build time for those who don't care for the test
|
|
suite, and it also reduces confusion for people using platforms where the
|
|
test suite build fails!
|
|
|
|
Daniel (26 May)
|
|
- Chris Lewis pointed out a flaw in the #ifdefs in curl/multi.h for Windows,
|
|
which is now corrected.
|
|
|
|
- Jis Joy found another flaw in the SOCK5 code, as libcurl treated the socks5
|
|
proxy a little too much like as if it was a http proxy.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (23 May)
|
|
- Ricardo Cadime found a socket leak when listing directories without
|
|
contents. Test cases 144 and 145 were added to verify the fix.
|
|
|
|
- Rudy Koento found yet another problem when a HTTP server returns only a
|
|
single-line of contents without any headers at all. libcurl then failed to
|
|
count the data, thus returning error 52 "no contents". Test case 66 was
|
|
added to verify that we now do right.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.6-pre1 (23 May 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (23 May)
|
|
- Jis in bug report #741841, fixed a bug in the SOCKS5 proxy-using code.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (22 May)
|
|
- David Remahl set up a test-server for me providing Digest authentication,
|
|
and I wrote the first working code that support it. The test suite was
|
|
modified slightly as well to work better for it and --digest was added to
|
|
the command line options (and CURLOPT_HTTPDIGEST to the library)... RFC2617
|
|
has all the gory details.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (21 May)
|
|
- David Balazic pointed out that curl_unescape() didn't check that %-codes
|
|
were correctly followed by two hexadecimal digits when it unescape strings.
|
|
Now, we do the check and only %XX codes are unescaped if the X letters are
|
|
hexadecimals.
|
|
|
|
- Gisle Vanem made curl build with djgpp on DOS.
|
|
|
|
- Gisle Vanem improved the mkhelp.pl script to make a nicer manual that is
|
|
shown with curl -M.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (20 May)
|
|
- Gisle Vanem provided a fix that makes libcurl more conservative, not
|
|
expecting h_aliases of the hostent struct to always be non-NULL.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (19 May)
|
|
- As requested by Martin Michlmayr in Debian bug report #193630, libcurl now
|
|
supports user name and password in the proxy environment variables. Added
|
|
test case 63 to verify this.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.5 (19 May 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (15 May)
|
|
- Changed the order for the in_addr_t testing, as 'unsigned long' seems to be
|
|
a very common type inet_addr() returns.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (14 May)
|
|
- George Comninos provided a fix that calls the progress meter when waiting
|
|
for FTP command responses take >1 second. It'll make applications more
|
|
"responsive" even when dealing with very slow ftp servers.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (12 May)
|
|
- George Comninos pointed out that libcurl uploads had two quirks:
|
|
o when using FTP PORT command, it used blocking sockets!
|
|
o it could loop a long time without doing progress meter updates
|
|
Both items are fixed now.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (9 May)
|
|
- Dan Fandrich changed CURLOPT_ENCODING to select all supported encodings if
|
|
set to "". This frees the application from having to know which encodings
|
|
the library supports.
|
|
|
|
- Dan Fandrich pointed out we had three unnecessary files in CVS that is
|
|
generated with libtoolize, so they're now removed and libtoolize is invoked
|
|
accordingly in the buildconf script.
|
|
|
|
- Avery Fay found out that the CURLOPT_INTERFACE way of first checking if the
|
|
given name is a network interface gave a real performance penalty on Linux,
|
|
so now we more appropriately first check if it is an IP number and if so
|
|
we don't check for a network interface with that name.
|
|
|
|
- CURLOPT_FTP_USE_EPRT added. Set this to FALSE to disable libcurl's attempts
|
|
to use EPRT and LPRT before the traditional PORT command. The command line
|
|
tool sets this option with '--disable-eprt'.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.5-pre2 (6 May 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (6 May)
|
|
- Kevin Delafield reported another case where we didn't correctly check for
|
|
EAGAIN but only EWOULDBLOCK, which caused badness on HPUX.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (4 May)
|
|
- Ben Greear noticed that the check for 'writable argv' exited the configure
|
|
script when run for cross-compiling, which wasn't nice. Now it'll default to
|
|
no and output a warning about the fact that it was not checked for.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (2 May)
|
|
- Added test case 62 and fixed some more on the cookie sending with a custom
|
|
Host: header set.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (1 May)
|
|
- Andy Cedilnik fixed a few compiler warnings.
|
|
|
|
- Made the "SSL read error: 5" error message more verbose, by adding code that
|
|
queries the OpenSSL library to fill in the error buffer.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (30 Apr)
|
|
- Added sys/select.h include in the curl/multi.h file, after having been
|
|
reminded about this by Rich Gray.
|
|
|
|
- I made each test set its own server requirements, thus abandoning the
|
|
previous system where the test number implied what server(s) to use for a
|
|
specific test.
|
|
|
|
- David Balazic made curl more RFC1738-compliant for FTP URLs, by fixing so
|
|
that libcurl now uses one CWD command for each path part. A bunch of test
|
|
cases were fixed to work accordingly.
|
|
|
|
- Cookie fixes:
|
|
|
|
A. Save domains in jars like Mozilla does. It means all domains set in
|
|
Set-Cookie: headers are dot-prefixed.
|
|
B. Save and use the 'tailmatch' field in the Mozilla/Netscape cookie jars
|
|
(the second column).
|
|
C. Reject cookies using illegal domains in the Set-Cookie: line. Concerns
|
|
both domains with too few dots or domains that are outside the currently
|
|
operating server host's domain.
|
|
D. Set the path part by default to the one used in the request, if none was
|
|
set in the Set-Cookie line.
|
|
|
|
To make item C really good, I also made libcurl notice custom Host: headers
|
|
and extract the host name set in there and use that as the host name for the
|
|
site we're getting the cookies from. This allows user to specify a site's
|
|
IP-address, but still be able to receive and send its cookies properly if
|
|
you provide a valid Host: name for the site.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (29 Apr)
|
|
- Peter Kovacs provided a patch that makes the CURLINFO_CONNECT_TIME work fine
|
|
when using the multi interface (too).
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.5-pre1 (23 Apr 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (23 Apr)
|
|
- Upgraded to libtool 1.5.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (22 Apr)
|
|
- Peter Sylvester pointed out that curl_easy_setopt() will always (wrongly)
|
|
return CURLE_OK no matter what happens.
|
|
|
|
- Dan Fandrich fixed some gzip decompression bugs and flaws.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (16 Apr)
|
|
- Fixed minor typo in man page, reported in the Debian bug tracker.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (15 Apr)
|
|
- Fixed some FTP tests in the test suite that failed on my Solaris host, due
|
|
to the config.h not being included before the system headers. When done that
|
|
way, it did get a mixed sense of if big files are supported or not and then
|
|
stat() and fstat() (as used in test case 505) got confused and failed to
|
|
return a proper file size.
|
|
|
|
- Formposting a file using a .html suffix is now properly set to Content-Type: text/html.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (14 Apr)
|
|
- Fixed the SSL error handling to return proper SSL error messages again, they
|
|
broke in 7.10.4. I also attempt to track down CA cert problems and then
|
|
return the CURLE_SSL_CACERT error code.
|
|
|
|
- The curl tool now intercepts the CURLE_SSL_CACERT error code and displays
|
|
a fairly big and explanatory error message. Kevin Roth helped me out with
|
|
the wording.

|
Daniel (11 Apr)
|
|
- Nic Hines provided a second patch for gzip decompression, and fixed a bug
|
|
when deflate or gzip contents were downloaded using chunked encoding.
|
|
|
|
- Dan Fandrich made libcurl support automatic decompression of gzip contents
|
|
(as an addition to the previous deflate support).
|
|
|
|
- I made the CWD command during FTP session consider all 2xy codes to be OK
|
|
responses.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (10 Apr)
|
|
- Vlad Krupin fixed a URL parsing issue. URLs that were not using a slash
|
|
after the host name, but still had "?" and parameters appended, as in
|
|
"http://hostname.com?foobar=moo", were not properly parsed by libcurl.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (9 Apr)
|
|
- Made CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION work for FTP transfers, using the same syntax as
|
|
for HTTP. This then made -z work for ftp transfers too. Added test case 139
|
|
and 140 for verifying this.
|
|
|
|
- Getting the file date of an ftp file used the wrong time zone when
|
|
displayed. It is supposedly always GMT. Added test case 141 for this.
|
|
|
|
- Made the test suite's FTP server support MDTM.
|
|
|
|
- The default DEBUGFUNCTION, as enabled with CURLOPT_VERBOSE now outputs
|
|
CURLINFO_HEADER_IN data as well. The most notable effect from this is that
|
|
using curl -v, you get to see the incoming "headers" as well. This is
|
|
perhaps most useful when doing ftp.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (8 Apr)
|
|
- James Bursa fixed a flaw in the Content-Type extraction code, which missed
|
|
the first letter if no space followed the colon.
|
|
|
|
- Magnus Nilsson pointed out that share.c was missing in the MSVC project
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (6 Apr)
|
|
- Ryan Weaver provided a patch that makes the CA cert bundle not get installed
|
|
anymore when 'configure --without-ssl' has been used.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (4 Apr)
|
|
- Martijn Broenland found another cases where a server application didn't
|
|
like the boundary string used by curl when foing a multi-part/formpost. We
|
|
modified the boundary string to look like the one IE uses, as this is
|
|
probably gonna make curl work with more applications.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (3 Apr)
|
|
- Kevin Roth reported that a bunch of tests fails on cygwin. One set fails
|
|
when using perl 5.8 (and they run fine with perl 5.6), and another set
|
|
failed because of an artifact in the test suite's FTP server that I
|
|
corrected. It turned out the FTP server code was still having a file opened
|
|
while the main test script removed it and invoked the HTTP server that
|
|
attempted to create the same file name of the file the FTP server kept open.
|
|
This operation works fine on unix, but not on cygwin.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.4 (2 Apr 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (1 Apr)
|
|
- Added test case 505 to exercise FTP upload with rename done with libcurl,
|
|
and for that I had to extend the test suite's FTP server to deal with the
|
|
RNFR and RNTO commands.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (31 Mar)
|
|
- Even more SSL config check modifications after Richard's testing.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.4-pre6 (31 Mar 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (31 Mar)
|
|
- More fixes for the SSL session ID cache checks when SSL configs are changed
|
|
between connections. Based on tests and talks with Richard Bramante.
|
|
|
|
- Guillaume Cottenceau provided a patch that added CURLOPT_UNRESTRICTED_AUTH.
|
|
When enabled, it will prevent libcurl from limiting to which host it sends
|
|
user+password to when following locations. By default, libcurl only sends
|
|
name and password to the original host used in the first URL, but with this
|
|
option set it will send the auth info to all hosts it follows location
|
|
headers to. The new tool command line option for this is named
|
|
"--location-trusted".
|
|
|
|
- Frankie Fong reported a problem with libcurl if you re-used an easy handle
|
|
with a proxy, and you first made a https:// connction to a host and then
|
|
switched to a http:// one to the same host. libcurl would then wrongly re-use
|
|
the same connection for it and fail to get the second URL properly
|
|
|
|
Daniel (29 Mar)
|
|
- Dan Shearer's fix that makes curl complain if invoked with nothing but "curl
|
|
-O" was applied.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (26 Mar)
|
|
- Bryan Kemp was friendly enough to lend me an account on his Redhat 9 box and
|
|
I could fix the configure problems on redhat 8.1 and 9 in no time thanks to
|
|
this. Thanks a bunch Bryan!
|
|
|
|
Daniel (25 Mar)
|
|
- Renamed configure.in to configure.ac
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.4-pre5 (25 Mar 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (25 Mar)
|
|
- Richard Bramante provided a fix for a handle re-use problem seen when you
|
|
change options on an SSL-enabled connection between requests. Previously,
|
|
changing peer verification or host verification and similar things was not
|
|
taken into account when a connection were checked for re-use and thus
|
|
enabling stricter check between requests on a re-used connection made no
|
|
difference and the connection would thus be used erroneously.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (24 Mar)
|
|
- Götz Babin-Ebell pointed out that the ca-bundle.crt file contained a
|
|
certificate from Trustcenter that was a demo certificate only that was never
|
|
indended to be part of a CA bundle.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (21 Mar)
|
|
- Life is a mystery. Within a time period of 17 hours, Tim Pope and Michael
|
|
Churchill filed one bug report each, both identifying problems with a second
|
|
transfer when doing persistant transfers re-using a connection. Tim's one is
|
|
#706624, labeled "Multiple uploads per handle fail" and Michael's #707003
|
|
"Does not send Authorization: header when reusing connection". I could track
|
|
both down to the same piece of logic and it turned out libcurl was not using
|
|
new settings properly when re-using an existing connection. This concerned
|
|
both uploading and downloading and involved exactly those pieces these two
|
|
reports identified. This code has been this faulty since the day I
|
|
introduced persistant connection support in libcurl, more than 2 years ago.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (20 Mar 2003)
|
|
- Five year anniversary. Today five years ago, the first ever curl release saw
|
|
the light of day.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (17 Mar)
|
|
- Andy Cedilnik corrected flaws in some libcurl example-usage sources.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (16 Mar)
|
|
- Juan F. Codagnone reported that the fix from March 2nd was incomplete.
|
|
|
|
- Added code to the configure.in to check for select() argument types. I've
|
|
not made any code use the results just yet though.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (15 Mar)
|
|
- Gisle Vanem provided two patches to build better on Windows.
|
|
|
|
- Adjusted the test suite code to better make sure that the server(s) required
|
|
for a specific test is properly started before the test case is attempted.
|
|
Many tests now run a lot faster than before.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (14 Mar)
|
|
- Another configure.in adjustment made the configure detect functions properly
|
|
on HPUX now.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (13 Mar)
|
|
- Philippe Raoult fixed pre4-compile quirks for FreeBSD.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.4-pre4 (13 Mar 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (13 Mar)
|
|
- Added a backup-check for functions that aren't found by AC_CHECK_FUNCS()
|
|
as I believe some checks on HPUX need this. At least some of the info given
|
|
to us by Rick Jones seemed to indicate this.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (12 Mar)
|
|
- Thomas Tonino found out that if you used the curl tool to do PUT operations
|
|
as in 'curl www.foo.com/dir/ -T file' and the file name included for example
|
|
space or other characters that don't belong in URLs, curl did not properly
|
|
URL encode them before using them in the URL.
|
|
|
|
- Added an option to configure called --enable-libgcc that simply adds -lgcc
|
|
to the LIBS variable, as this seems to be a common problem.
|
|
|
|
- I modified the configure.in file, so that the headers are now checked in an
|
|
order of "viality". We must also make sure to use the "default headers"
|
|
parameter to AC_CHECK_HEADERS() so that headers are checked with the proper
|
|
prerequisites included (i.e all the major and generally important header
|
|
files are included there by default). This might be what we need for various
|
|
Sun, HP, AIX and Tru64 systems to behave good again on the header check
|
|
front.
|
|
|
|
- Rick Jones pointed out a few compiler warnings on HP-UX that I addressed.
|
|
|
|
- I made the configure --help output nicer by using AC_HELP_STRING() a lot
|
|
more.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (11 Mar)
|
|
- Christophe Demory fixed the socket sending code to work better on HP-UX
|
|
when sending data to a socket that would block. It then returns EAGAIN, not
|
|
EWOULDBLOCK.
|
|
|
|
- Richard Gorton improved the seeding function for systems without a good
|
|
and reliable random source.
|
|
|
|
- Richard Gorton fixed a few warnings that popped up when you built curl
|
|
using the Sun compiler on a 64bit SPARC platform.
|
|
|
|
- Martin C. Martin fixed a case where a connect failure using the multi
|
|
interface didn't produce a human readable error string.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (10 Mar)
|
|
- Reverted ltmain.sh back to libtool 1.4.2 status again, as the 1.4.3 version
|
|
broke the build on numerous platforms. It seems that libtool 1.4.3 puts some
|
|
requirements on what versions of the other tools (autoconf + automake) that
|
|
I am not familiar with and thus I couldn't fulfill at this point.
|
|
|
|
Yes, this is more than mildly frustrating.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (7 Mar)
|
|
- Run libtoolize version 1.4.3.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.4-pre3 (4 Mar 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (3 Mar)
|
|
- Added share.obj to the VC6 and Borland libcurl makefiles.
|
|
|
|
- Troels Walsted Hansen found and investigated a problem with libcurl on AIX,
|
|
presumably only on 4.3 or later. gethostbyname_r() is not returning data
|
|
that is possible to "keep" and cache the way libcurl does. But instead these
|
|
versions of AIX uses a gethostbyname() that works thread-safely we can
|
|
instead use the ordinary gethostbyname() and our pack_hostent() approach to
|
|
achieve what we want. The configure script now attempts to detect AIX 4.3 or
|
|
later to adjust for this.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (2 Mar)
|
|
- Juan F. Codagnone found a problem introduced in 7.10.3 when you first did a
|
|
POST and then back to a GET using the same easy handle.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (28 Feb)
|
|
- Removed the strequal and strnequal defines from curl/curl.h header. They
|
|
were never meant for the public header anyway. Philippe Raoult brought it
|
|
up.
|
|
|
|
- James Bursa fixed the RISC OS build.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (27 Feb)
|
|
- Avery Fay pointed out the very misleading curl_multi_info_read man page, and
|
|
I updated it to become more accurate.
|
|
|
|
- Salvatore Sorrentino found a problem with FTP downloading that turned out to
|
|
be his FTP server returning size zero (0 bytes) when SIZE was used on a file
|
|
while being in BINARY mode. We now make a second check for the actual size
|
|
by scanning the RETR reply anyway, even if the SIZE command returned 0.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (26 Feb)
|
|
- Kyle Sallee reported a case where he would do a transfer that didn't update
|
|
the progress meter properly. It turned out to be a case where libcurl would
|
|
loop a little too eagerly in the tranfer loop, which isn't really good for
|
|
the APIs, especially not the multi API.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.4-pre2 (24 Feb 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (24 Feb)
|
|
- Kjetil Jacobsen found out that setting CURLOPT_MAXCONNECTS to a value higher
|
|
than 5 could cause a segfault.
|
|
|
|
- I believe I fixed the 'Expect: 100-continue' behavior that has been broken
|
|
for a while (I think since my change dated Dec 10 2002). When this header is
|
|
used, libcurl should wait for a HTTP 100 (or timeout) before sending the
|
|
post/put data.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (14 Feb)
|
|
- Matthew Clarke provided some info what to modify to make curl build
|
|
flawlessly on AIX 3.2.5.
|
|
|
|
- Martin C. Martin found and fixed a problem in the multi interface when
|
|
running on Windows and trying to connect to a port without a listener.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (13 Feb)
|
|
- Christopher R. Palmer fixed Curl_base64_encode() to deal with zeroes in the
|
|
data to encode.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (4 Feb)
|
|
- Jean-Philippe added the first code that enables the 'share' system. This
|
|
should now enable sharing of DNS data between two curl easy handles.
|
|
|
|
- Incorporated Nico Baggus' fixes to again compile flawlessly on VMS.
|
|
|
|
- James Bursa corrected a bad comment in the public include file curl/multi.h
|
|
|
|
- Peter Forret reported one of those error:00000000 cases in libcurl again
|
|
when connecting to a HTTPS site, and this time I did discover some oddities
|
|
in how curl reports SSL errors back. It could miss showing the actual error.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.4-pre1 (3 Feb 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (3 Feb)
|
|
- Removed things in the docs saying capath doesn't work on Windows, as Julian
|
|
Noble told us it works fine.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (31 Jan)
|
|
- Kevin Roth fixed the zlib build stuff in the Mingw32 makefile.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (30 Jan)
|
|
- Kevin Roth found out that curl on Windows always checked for the CA cert
|
|
bundle using the environment variable and the path scan, even though
|
|
-k/--insecure was used.
|
|
|
|
- Hamish Mackenzie pointed out that curl only did strict host name verifying
|
|
if capath or cainfo was used. Now it'll always do it unless -k / --insecure
|
|
is used!
|
|
|
|
- Pavel Cenek pointed out that the Content-Type extraction was done wrongly
|
|
as the full string was not fetched. Added test case 57 to verify that curl
|
|
does it right now.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (29 Jan)
|
|
- Jamie Wilkinson provided a patch that now makes curl attempt to clear out
|
|
"sensitive" command line arguments so that they don't appear in ps outputs
|
|
(only on platforms that allow writing to argv[]).
|
|
|
|
- John McGowan found out that the DEBUGFUNCTION could be called with bad
|
|
arguments and thus cause the --trace outputs to go wrong.
|
|
|
|
- Removed all the emacs local variables from all files. Mats Lidell provided
|
|
the new sample.emacs file (for a sample of what to include in your .emacs)
|
|
and the curl-style.el that sets a better c-style for editing curl sources.
|
|
|
|
- Dave Halbakken found a problem with FTP downloads that could accidently
|
|
return CURLE_PARTIAL_FILE when curl_easy_perform() was called with NOBODY
|
|
set TRUE.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (27 Jan)
|
|
- The fopen.c example was flawed as Nick Humfrey noticed, and I fixed it to
|
|
work again.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (24 Jan)
|
|
- Bertrand Demiddelaer found and fixed a memory leak (the content-type string)
|
|
when following locations.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (22 Jan 2003)
|
|
- Ian Wilkes and Legoff Vincent both independently provided fixes for making
|
|
curl/multi.h work properly when compiled with a C++ compiler.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (20 Jan 2003)
|
|
- Fixed 'buildconf' to check version number of the required tools before
|
|
they're actually used.
|
|
|
|
- Wrote 'testcurl.sh', a script targeted for automatic and distributed curl
|
|
tests on various platforms.
|
|
|
|
- David Thiel pointed out that the .netrc file was not being dealt with
|
|
properly anymore. I broke this in the password prompting "fix".
|
|
|
|
- Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer patched libcurl to allocate the scratch buffer only
|
|
on demand and thus we save 32KB in each curl handle that don't use that
|
|
buffer. This need appeared when some people started using thousands of
|
|
simultaneous curl handles... :-)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (16 Jan 2003)
|
|
- Markus Oberhumer fixed curl-config --cflags when the includedir was not
|
|
/usr/include.
|
|
|
|
- Markus Oberhumer fixed CURLINFO_PRIVATE to properly return NULL if it was
|
|
set to NULL!
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.3 (14 Jan 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (10 Jan 2003)
|
|
- Steve Oliphant pointed out that test case 105 did not work anymore and this
|
|
was due to a missing fix for the password prompting.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.3-pre6 (10 Jan 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (9 Jan 2003)
|
|
- Bryan Kemp pointed out that curl -u could not provide a blank password
|
|
without prompting the user. It can now. -u username: makes the password
|
|
empty, while -u username makes curl prompt the user for a password.
|
|
|
|
- Kjetil Jacobsen found a remaining connect problem in the multi interface on
|
|
ipv4 systems (Linux only?), that I fixed and Kjetil verified that it fixed
|
|
his problems.
|
|
|
|
- memanalyze.pl now reads a file name from the command line, and no longer
|
|
takes the data on stdin as before.
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.3-pre5 (9 Jan 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (9 Jan 2003)
|
|
- Fixed tests/memanalyze.pl to work with file names that contain colons (as on
|
|
Windows).
|
|
|
|
- Kjetil Jacobsen quickly pointed out that lib/share.h was missing...
|
|
|
|
Version 7.10.3-pre4 (9 Jan 2003)
|
|
|
|
Daniel (9 Jan 2003)
|
|
- Updated lib/share.c quite a bit to match the design document at
|
|
http://curl.haxx.se/dev/sharing.txt a lot more.
|
|
|
|
I'll try to update the document soonish. share.c is still not actually used
|
|
by libcurl, but the API is slowly getting there and we can start
|
|
implementing code that takes advantage of this system.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (8 Jan 2003)
|
|
- Updated share stuff in curl/curl.h, including data types, structs and
|
|
function prototypes. The corresponding files in lib/ were also modified
|
|
of course to remain compilable. Based on input from Jean-Philippe and also
|
|
to make it more in line with the design document.
|
|
|
|
- Jean-Philippe Barrette-LaPierre patched a very trivial memory leak in
|
|
curl_escape() that would happen when realloc() returns NULL...
|
|
|
|
- Matthew Blain provided feedback to make the --create-dirs stuff build
|
|
properly on Windows.
|
|
|
|
- Fixed the #include in tests/libtest/first.c as Legoff Vincent pointed out.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (7 Jan 2003)
|
|
- Philippe Raoult provided a patch that now makes libcurl properly support
|
|
wildcard checks for certificate names.
|
|
|
|
- Simon Liu added CURLOPT_HTTP200ALIASES, to let an application set other
|
|
strings recognized as "HTTP 200" to allow http-like protocols to get
|
|
downloaded fine by curl.
|
|
|
|
- Now using autoconf 2.57 and automake 1.7.2
|
|
|
|
- Doing "curl -I ftp://domain/non-existing-file" still outputed a date!
|
|
Wayne Haigh reported.
|
|
|
|
- The error message is now written properly with a newline in the --trace
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
Daniel (6 Jan 2003)
|
|
- Sterling Hughes fixed a possible bug: previously, if you called
|
|
curl_easy_perform and then set the global dns cache, the global cache
|
|
wouldn't be used. Pointed out by Jean-Philippe Barrette-LaPierre.
|
|
|
|
- Matthew Blain's fixed the VC6 libcurl makefile to include better debug data
|
|
on debug builds.
|
