Raw Blame History

Curl and libcurl 7.12.0.
Public curl release number: 81
Releases counted from the very beginning: 108
Available command line options: 96
Available curl_easy_setopt() options: 113

A special thanks to:
archivas.com and Alan Pinstein, for paying me to focus on their requests
This release includes the following changes:
o added ability to "upload" to file:// URLs
o added curl_global_init_mem()
o removed curl_formparse()
o the MSVC project file in the release archive is automatically built
o curl --proxy-digest is a new command line option
o the Windows version of libcurl can use wldap32.dll for LDAP
o added curl_easy_strerror(), curl_multi_strerror() and curl_share_strerror()
o IPv6-enabled Windows hosts now resolves names threaded/asynch as well
o configure --with-libidn can be used to point out the root dir of a libidn
installation (version 0.4.5 or later) for curl to use, then libcurl can
resolve and use IDNA names (domain names with "international" letters)
This release includes the following bugfixes:
o incoming cookies with domains set with a prefixed dot now works better
o CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE and CURLOPT_COOKIE can be used in the same request
o improved peer certificate name verification
o allocation failures cause no leaks nor crashes
o the progress meter display now handles file sizes up to full 8 exabytes
(which is as high a signed 64 bit number can reach)
o general HTTP authentication improvements
o HTTP Digest authentication with the proxy works
o mulipart formposting with -F and file names with spaces work again
o curl_easy_duphandle() now works when ares-enabled
o HTTP Digest authentication works a lot more like the RFC says
o curl works with telnet and stdin properly on Windows
o configure --without-ssl works even when pkg-config has OpenSSL details
o src/hugehelp.c builds correct again in non-configure build environments
Other curl-related news since the previous public release:
o The CVS repository was moved to cool.haxx.se
o AdacURL 7.11.2 was released: http://www.almroth.com/adacurl/
o PycURL 7.11.3 was released: http://pycurl.sourceforge.net
o A new German download mirror: http://www.mirrorspace.org/curl/
This release would not have looked like this without help, code, reports and
advice from friends like these:
Gisle Vanem, Tommy Tam, Luca Altea, James Bursa, Mihai Ionescu, Michael
Benedict, Andr<64>s Garc<72>a, Joe Halpin, Seshubabu Pasam, Peter Sylvester, Robert

Thanks! (and sorry if I forgot to mention someone)
