Changelog

||
Daniel (18 May 2005)
|
||
- Bug report #1204435 identified a problem with malformed URLs like
|
||
"http://somehost?data" as it added a slash too much in the request ("GET
|
||
/?data/"...). Added test case 260 to verify.
|
||
|
||
- The configure check for strerror_r() failed to detect the proper API at
|
||
times, like on HP-UX 10.20. Then lib/strerror.c badly assumed the glibc
|
||
version if the posix define wasn't set (since it _had_ found a strerror_r).
|
||
|
||
Daniel (16 May 2005)
|
||
- The gmtime_r() function in HP-UX 10.20 is broken. About 13 test cases fail
|
||
due to this. There's now a configure check that attempts to detect the bad
|
||
function and not use it on such systems.
|
||
|
||
Version 7.14.0 (16 May 2005)
|
||
|
||
Daniel (13 May 2005)
|
||
- Grigory Entin reported that curl's configure detects a fine poll() for Mac
|
||
OS X 10.4 (while 10.3 or later detected a "bad" one), but the executable
|
||
doesn't work as good as if built without poll(). I've adjusted the configure
|
||
to always skip the fine-poll() test on Mac OS X (darwin).
|
||
|
||
Daniel (12 May 2005)
|
||
- When doing a second request (after a disconnect) using the same easy handle,
|
||
over a proxy that uses NTLM authentication, libcurl failed to use NTLM again
|
||
properly (the auth method was accidentally reset to the same as had been set
|
||
for host auth, which defaults to Basic). Bug report #1200661 identified the
|
||
the problem and the fix.
|
||
|
||
- If -z/--time-cond is used with an invalid date syntax, this is no longer
|
||
silently discarded. Instead a proper warning message is diplayed that
|
||
informs about it. But it still continues without the condition.
|
||
|
||
Version 7.14.0-pre2 (11 May 2005)
|
||
|
||
Daniel (11 May 2005)
|
||
- Starting now, libcurl sends a little different set of headers in its default
|
||
HTTP requests:
|
||
|
||
A) Normal non-proxy HTTP:
|
||
- no more "Pragma: no-cache" (this only makes sense to proxies)
|
||
|
||
B) Non-CONNECT HTTP request over proxy:
|
||
- "Pragma: no-cache" is used (like before)
|
||
- "Proxy-Connection: Keep-alive" (for older style 1.0-proxies)
|
||
|
||
C) CONNECT HTTP request over proxy:
|
||
- "Host: [name]:[port]"
|
||
- "Proxy-Connection: Keep-alive"
|
||
|
||
The A) case is mostly to reduce the default header size and remove a
|
||
pointless header.
|
||
|
||
The B) is to address (rare) problems with HTTP 1.0 proxies
|
||
|
||
The C) headers are both to address (rare) problems with some proxies. The
|
||
code in libcurl that deals with CONNECT requests need a rewrite, but it
|
||
feels like a too big a job for me to do now. Details are added in the code
|
||
comments for now.
|
||
|
||
Updated a large amount of test cases to reflect the news.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (10 May 2005)
|
||
- Half-baked attempt to bail out if select() returns _only_ errorfds when the
|
||
transfer is in progress. An attempt to fix Allan's problem. See
|
||
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2005-05/0073.html and the rest of that thread
|
||
for details.
|
||
|
||
I'm still not sure this is the right fix, but...
|
||
|
||
Version 7.14.0-pre1 (9 May 2005)
|
||
|
||
Daniel (2 May 2005)
|
||
- Sort of "fixed" KNOWN_BUGS #4: curl now builds IPv6 enabled on AIX 4.3. At
|
||
least it should no longer cause a compiler error. However, it does not have
|
||
AI_NUMERICHOST so we cannot getaddrinfo() any numerical addresses with it
|
||
(we use that for FTP PORT/EPRT)! So, I modified the configure check that
|
||
checks if the getaddrinfo() is working, to use AI_NUMERICHOST since then
|
||
it'll fail on AIX 4.3 and it will automatically build with IPv6 support
|
||
disabled.
|
||
|
||
- Added --trace-time that when used adds a time stamp to each trace line that
|
||
--trace, --trace-ascii and --verbose output. I also made the '>' display
|
||
separate each line on the linefeed so that HTTP requests etc look nicer in
|
||
the -v output.
|
||
|
||
- Made curl recognize the environment variables Lynx (and others?) support for
|
||
pointing out the CA cert path/file: SSL_CERT_DIR and SSL_CERT_FILE. If
|
||
CURL_CA_BUNDLE is not set, they are checked afterwards.
|
||
|
||
Like before: on windows if none of these are set, it checks for the ca cert
|
||
file like this:
|
||
|
||
1. application's directory
|
||
2. current working directory
|
||
3. Windows System directory (e.g. C:\windows\system32)
|
||
4. Windows Directory (e.g. C:\windows)
|
||
5. all directories along %PATH%
|
||
|
||
Daniel (1 May 2005)
|
||
- The runtests.pl script now starts test servers by doing fork() and exec()
|
||
instead of the previous approach. This is less complicated and should
|
||
hopefully lead to less "leaked" servers (servers that aren't stopped
|
||
properly when the tests are stopped).
|
||
|
||
- Alexander Zhuravlev found a case when you did "curl -I [URL]" and it
|
||
complained on the chunked encoding, even though a HEAD should never return a
|
||
body and thus it cannot be a chunked-encoding problem!
|
||
|
||
Daniel (30 April 2005)
|
||
- Alexander Zhuravlev found out that (lib)curl SIGSEGVed when using
|
||
--interface on an address that can't be bound.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (28 April 2005)
|
||
- Working on fixing up test cases to mark sections as 'mode=text' for things
|
||
that curl writes as text files, since then they can get different line
|
||
endings depending on OS. Andr<64>s Garc<72>a helps me work this out.
|
||
|
||
Did lots of other minor tweaks on the test scripts to work better and more
|
||
reliably find test servers and also kill test servers.
|
||
|
||
- Dan Fandrich pointed out how the runtests.pl script killed the HTTP server
|
||
instead of the HTTPS server when closing it down.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (27 April 2005)
|
||
- Paul Moore made curl check for the .curlrc file (_curlrc on windows) on two
|
||
more places. First, CURL_HOME is a new environment variable that is used
|
||
instead of HOME if it is set, to point out where the default config file
|
||
lives. If there's no config file in the dir pointed out by one of the
|
||
environment variables, the Windows version will instead check the same
|
||
directory the executable curl is located in.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (26 April 2005)
|
||
- Cory Nelson's work on nuking compiler warnings when building on x64 with
|
||
VS2005.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (25 April 2005)
|
||
- Fred New reported a bug where we used Basic auth and user name and password
|
||
in .netrc, and when following a Location: the subsequent requests didn't
|
||
properly use the auth as found in the netrc file. Added test case 257 to
|
||
verify my fix.
|
||
|
||
- Based on feedback from Cory Nelson, I added some preprocessor magic in
|
||
*/setup.h and */config-win32.h to build fine with VS2005 on x64.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (23 April 2005)
|
||
- Alex Suykov made the curl tool now assume that uploads using HTTP:// or
|
||
HTTPS:// are the only ones that show output and thus motivates a switched
|
||
off progress meter if the output is sent to the terminal. This makes FTP
|
||
uploads without '>', -o or -O show the progress meter.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (22 April 2005)
|
||
- Dave Dribin's MSVC makefile fix: set CURL_STATICLIB when it builds static
|
||
library variants.
|
||
|
||
- Andres Garcia fixed configure to set the proper define when building static
|
||
libcurl on windows.
|
||
|
||
- --retry-delay didn't work.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (18 April 2005)
|
||
- Olivier reported that even though he used CURLOPT_PORT, libcurl clearly
|
||
still used the default port. He was right. I fixed the problem and added the
|
||
test cases 521, 522 and 523 to verify the fix.
|
||
|
||
- Toshiyuki Maezawa reported that when doing a POST with a read callback,
|
||
libcurl didn't properly send an Expect: 100-continue header. It does now.
|
||
|
||
- I committed by mig change in the test suite's FTP server that moves out all
|
||
socket/TCP code to a separate C program named sockfilt. And added 4 new
|
||
test cases for FTP over IPv6.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (8 April 2005)
|
||
- Cory Nelson reported a problem with a HTTP server that responded with a 304
|
||
response containing an "illegal" Content-Length: header, which was not
|
||
properly ignored by libcurl. Now it is. Test case 249 verifies.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (7 April 2005)
|
||
- Added ability to build and run with GnuTLS as an alternative to OpenSSL for
|
||
the secure layer. configure --with-gnutls enables with. Note that the
|
||
previous OpenSSL check still has preference and if it first detects OpenSSL,
|
||
it will not check for GnuTLS. You may need to explictly diable OpenSSL with
|
||
--without-ssl.
|
||
|
||
This work has been sponsored by The Written Word.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (5 April 2005)
|
||
- Christophe Legry fixed the post-upload check for FTP to not complain if the
|
||
upload was skipped due to a time-condition as set with
|
||
CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION. I added test case 247 and 248 to verify.
|
||
|
||
Version 7.13.2 (5 April 2005)
|
||
|
||
Daniel (4 April 2005)
|
||
- Marcelo Juchem fixed the MSVC makefile for libcurl
|
||
|
||
- Gisle Vanem fixed a crash in libcurl, that could happen if the easy handle
|
||
was killed before the threading resolver (windows only) still hadn't
|
||
completed.
|
||
|
||
- Hardeep Singh reported a problem doing HTTP POST with Digest. (It was
|
||
actually also affecting NTLM and Negotiate.) It turned out that if the
|
||
server responded with 100 Continue before the initial 401 response, libcurl
|
||
didn't take care of the response properly. Test case 245 and 246 added to
|
||
verify this.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (30 March 2005)
|
||
- Andres Garcia modified the configure script to check for libgdi32 before
|
||
libcrypto, to make the SSL check work fine on msys/mingw.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (29 March 2005)
|
||
- Tom Moers identified a flaw when you sent a POST with Digest authentication,
|
||
as in the first request when curl sends a POST with Content-Length: 0, it
|
||
still forcibly closed the connection before doing the next step in the auth
|
||
negotiation.
|
||
|
||
- Jesper Jensen found out that FTP-SSL didn't work since my FTP
|
||
rewrite. Fixing that was easy, but it also revealed a much worse problem:
|
||
the FTP server response reader function didn't properly deal with reading
|
||
responses in multiple tiny chunks properly! I modified the FTP server to
|
||
allow it to produce such split-up responses to make sure curl deals with
|
||
them as it should.
|
||
|
||
- Based on Augustus Saunders' comments and findings, the HTTP output auth
|
||
function was fixed to use the proper proxy authentication when multiple ones
|
||
are accepted. test 239 and test 243 were added to repeat the problems and
|
||
verify the fixes.
|
||
|
||
--proxy-anyauth was added to the curl tool
|
||
|
||
Daniel (16 March 2005)
|
||
- Tru64 and some IRIX boxes seem to not like test 237 as it is. Their
|
||
inet_addr() functions seems to use &255 on all numericals in a ipv4 dotted
|
||
address which makes a different failure... Now I've modified the ipv4
|
||
resolve code to use inet_pton() instead in an attempt to make these systems
|
||
better detect this as a bad IP address rather than creating a toally bogus
|
||
address that is then passed on and used.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (15 March 2005)
|
||
- Dan Fandrich made the code properly use the uClibc's version of
|
||
inet_ntoa_r() when built with it.
|
||
|
||
- Added test 237 and 238: test EPSV and PASV response handling when they get
|
||
well- formated data back but using illegal values. In 237 PASV gets an IP
|
||
address that is way bad. In 238 EPSV gets a port that is way out of range.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (14 March 2005)
|
||
- Added a few missing features to the curl-config --features list
|
||
|
||
- Modified testcurl.pl to now offer
|
||
1 - command line options for all info it previously only read from
|
||
file: --name, --email, --desc and --configure
|
||
2 - --nocvsup makes it not attempt to do cvs update
|
||
3 - --crosscompile informs it and makes it not attempt things it can't do
|
||
|
||
- Fixed numerous win32 compiler warnings.
|
||
|
||
- Removed the lib/security.h file since it shadowed the mingw/win32 header
|
||
with the same name which is needed for SSPI builds. The contents of the
|
||
former security.h is now i krb4.h
|
||
|
||
- configure --enable-sspi now enables SSPI in the build. It only works for
|
||
windows builds (including cross-compiles for windows).
|
||
|
||
Daniel (12 March 2005)
|
||
- David Houlder added --form-string that adds that string to a multipart
|
||
formpost part, without special characters having special meanings etc like
|
||
--form features.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (11 March 2005)
|
||
- curl_version_info() returns the feature bit CURL_VERSION_SSPI if it was
|
||
built with SSPI support.
|
||
|
||
- Christopher R. Palmer made it possible to build libcurl with the
|
||
USE_WINDOWS_SSPI on Windows, and then libcurl will be built to use the
|
||
native way to do NTLM. SSPI also allows libcurl to pass on the current user
|
||
and its password in the request.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (9 March 2005)
|
||
- Dan F improved the SSL lib setup in configure.
|
||
|
||
- Nodak Sodak reported a crash when using a SOCKS4 proxy.
|
||
|
||
- Jean-Marc Ranger pointed out an embarassing debug printf() leftover in the
|
||
multi interface code.
|
||
|
||
- Adjusted the man page for the curl_getdate() return value for dates after
|
||
year 2038. For 32 bit time_t it returns 0x7fffffff but for 64bit time_t it
|
||
returns either the correct value or even -1 on some systems that still seem
|
||
to not deal with this properly. Tor Arntsen found a 64bit AIX system for us
|
||
that did the latter. Gwenole Beauchesne's Mandrake patch put the lights on
|
||
this problem in the first place.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (8 March 2005)
|
||
- Dominick Meglio reported that using CURLOPT_FILETIME when transferring a FTP
|
||
file got a Last-Modified: header written to the data stream, corrupting the
|
||
actual data. This was because some conditions from the previous FTP code was
|
||
not properly brought into the new FTP code. I fixed and I added test case
|
||
520 to verify. (This bug was introduced in 7.13.1)
|
||
|
||
- Dan Fandrich fixed the configure --with-zlib option to always consider the
|
||
given path before any standard paths.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (6 March 2005)
|
||
- Randy McMurchy was the first to report that valgrind.pm was missing from the
|
||
release archive and thus 'make test' fails.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (5 March 2005)
|
||
- Dan Fandrich added HAVE_FTRUNCATE to several config-*.h files.
|
||
|
||
- Added test case 235 that makes a resumed upload of a file that isn't present
|
||
on the remote side. This then converts the operation to an ordinary STOR
|
||
upload. This was requested/pointed out by Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams.
|
||
|
||
It also proved (and I fixed) a bug in the newly rewritten ftp code (and
|
||
present in the 7.13.1 release) when trying to resume an upload and the
|
||
servers returns an error to the SIZE command. libcurl then loops and sends
|
||
SIZE commands infinitely.
|
||
|
||
- Dan Fandrich fixed a SSL problem introduced on February 9th that made
|
||
libcurl attempt to load the whole random file to seed the PRNG. This is
|
||
really bad since this turns out to be using /dev/urandom at times...
|
||
|
||
Version 7.13.1 (4 March 2005)
|
||
|
||
Daniel (4 March 2005)
|
||
- Dave Dribin made it possible to set CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE to "" to activate
|
||
the cookie "engine" without having to provide an empty or non-existing file.
|
||
|
||
- Rene Rebe fixed a -# crash when more data than expected was retrieved.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (22 February 2005)
|
||
- NTLM and ftp-krb4 buffer overflow fixed, as reported here:
|
||
http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/391042 and the CAN report here:
|
||
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-0490
|
||
|
||
If these security guys were serious, we'd been notified in advance and we
|
||
could've saved a few of you a little surprise, but now we weren't.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (19 February 2005)
|
||
- Ralph Mitchell reported a flaw when you used a proxy with auth, and you
|
||
requested data from a host and then followed a redirect to another
|
||
host. libcurl then didn't use the proxy-auth properly in the second request,
|
||
due to the host-only check for original host name wrongly being extended to
|
||
the proxy auth as well. Added test case 233 to verify the flaw and that the
|
||
fix removed the problem.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (18 February 2005)
|
||
- Mike Dobbs reported a mingw build failure due to the lack of
|
||
BUILDING_LIBCURL being defined when libcurl is built. Now this is defined by
|
||
configure when mingw is used.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (17 February 2005)
|
||
- David in bug report #1124588 found and fixed a socket leak when libcurl
|
||
didn't close the socket properly when returning error due to failing
|
||
localbind
|
||
|
||
Daniel (16 February 2005)
|
||
- Christopher R. Palmer reported a problem with HTTP-POSTing using "anyauth"
|
||
that picks NTLM. Thanks to David Byron letting me test NTLM against his
|
||
servers, I could quickly repeat and fix the problem. It turned out to be:
|
||
|
||
When libcurl POSTs without knowing/using an authentication and it gets back
|
||
a list of types from which it picks NTLM, it needs to either continue
|
||
sending its data if it keeps the connection alive, or not send the data but
|
||
close the connection. Then do the first step in the NTLM auth. libcurl
|
||
didn't send the data nor close the connection but simply read the
|
||
response-body and then sent the first negotiation step. Which then failed
|
||
miserably of course. The fixed version forces a connection if there is more
|
||
than 2000 bytes left to send.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (14 February 2005)
|
||
- The configure script didn't check for ENGINE_load_builtin_engines() so it
|
||
was never used.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (11 February 2005)
|
||
- Removed all uses of strftime() since it uses the localised version of the
|
||
week day names and month names and servers don't like that.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (10 February 2005)
|
||
- Now the test script disables valgrind-testing when the test suite runs if
|
||
libcurl is built shared. Otherwise valgrind only tests the shell that runs
|
||
the wrapper-script named 'curl' that is a front-end to curl in this case.
|
||
This should also fix the huge amount of reports of false positives when
|
||
valgrind has identified leaks in (ba)sh and not in curl and people report
|
||
that as curl bugs. Bug report #1116672 is one example.
|
||
|
||
Also, the valgrind report parser has been adapted to check that at least one
|
||
of the sources in a stack strace is one of (lib)curl's source files or
|
||
otherwise it will not consider the problem to concern (lib)curl.
|
||
|
||
- Marty Kuhrt streamlined the VMS build.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (9 February 2005)
|
||
- David Byron fixed his SSL problems, initially mentioned here:
|
||
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2005-01/0240.html. It turned out we didn't use
|
||
SSL_pending() as we should.
|
||
|
||
- Converted lots of FTP code to a statemachine, so that the multi interface
|
||
doesn't block while communicating commands-responses with an FTP server.
|
||
|
||
I've added a comment like BLOCKING in the code on all spots I could find
|
||
where we still have blocking operations. When we change curl_easy_perform()
|
||
to use the multi interface, we'll also be able to simplify the code since
|
||
there will only be one "internal interface".
|
||
|
||
While doing this, I've now made CURLE_FTP_ACCESS_DENIED separate from the
|
||
new CURLE_LOGIN_DENIED. The first one is now access denied to a function,
|
||
like changing directory or retrieving a file, while the second means that we
|
||
were denied login.
|
||
|
||
The CVS tag 'before_ftp_statemachine' was set just before this went in, in
|
||
case of future need.
|
||
|
||
- Gisle made the DICT code send CRLF and not just LF as the spec says so.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (8 February 2005)
|
||
- Gisle fixed problems when libcurl runs out of memory, and worked on making
|
||
sure the proper error code is returned for those occations.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (7 February 2005)
|
||
- Maruko pointed out a problem with inflate decompressing exactly 64K
|
||
contents.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (5 February 2005)
|
||
- Eric Vergnaud found a use of an uninitialised variable in the ftp when doing
|
||
PORT on ipv6-enabled hosts.

||
|
||
- David Byron pointed out we could use BUFSIZE to read data (in
|
||
lib/transfer.c) instead of using BUFSIZE -1.
|
||
|
||
Version 7.13.0 (1 February 2005)
|
||
|
||
Daniel (31 January 2005)
|
||
- Added Lars Nilsson's htmltitle.cc example
|
||
|
||
Daniel (30 January 2005)
|
||
- Fixed a memory leak when using the multi interface and the DO operation
|
||
failed (as in test case 205).
|
||
|
||
- Fixed a valgrind warning for file:// operations.
|
||
|
||
- Fixed a valgrind report in the url globbing code for the curl command line
|
||
tool.
|
||
|
||
- Bugfixed the parser that scans the valgrind report outputs (in runtests.pl).
|
||
I noticed that it previously didn't detect and report the "Conditional jump
|
||
or move depends on uninitialised value(s)" error. When I fixed this, I
|
||
caught a few curl bugs with it. And then I had to spend time to make the
|
||
test suite IGNORE these errors when OpenSSL is used since it produce massive
|
||
amounts of valgrind warnings (but only of the "Conditional..." kind it
|
||
seems). So, if a test that requires SSL is run, it ignores the
|
||
"Conditional..." errors, and you'll get a "valgrind PARTIAL" output instead
|
||
of "valgrind OK".

|
||
- Using the multi interface, and doing a requsted a re-used connection that
|
||
gets closed just after the request has been sent failed and did not re-issue
|
||
a request on a fresh reconnect like the easy interface did. Now it does!
|
||
|
||
- Define CURL_MULTIEASY when building libcurl (lib/easy.c to be exact), to use
|
||
my new curl_easy_perform() that uses the multi interface to run the
|
||
request. It is a great testbed for the multi interface and I believe we
|
||
shall do it this way for real in the future when we have a successor to
|
||
curl_multi_fdset(). I've used this approach to detect and fix several of the
|
||
recent multi-interfaces issues.
|
||
|
||
- Adjusted the KNOWN_BUGS #17 fix a bit more since the FTP code also did some
|
||
bad assumptions.
|
||
|
||
- multi interface: when a request is denied due to "Maximum redirects
|
||
followed" libcurl leaked the last Location: URL.
|
||
|
||
- Connect failures with the multi interface was often returned as "connect()
|
||
timed out" even though the reason was different.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (28 January 2005)
|
||
- KNOWN_BUGS #17 fixed. A DNS cache entry may not remain locked between two
|
||
curl_easy_perform() invokes. It was previously unlocked at disconnect, which
|
||
could mean that it remained locked between multiple transfers. The DNS cache
|
||
may not live as long as the connection cache does, as they are separate.
|
||
|
||
To deal with the lack of DNS (host address) data availability in re-used
|
||
connections, libcurl now keeps a copy of the IP adress as a string, to be
|
||
able to show it even on subsequent requests on the same connection.
|
||
|
||
The problem could be made to appear with this stunt:
|
||
|
||
1. create a multi handle
|
||
2. add an easy handle
|
||
3. fetch a URL that is persistent (leaves the connection alive)
|
||
4. remove the easy handle from the multi
|
||
5. kill the multi handle
|
||
6. create a multi handle
|
||
7. add the same easy handle to the new multi handle
|
||
8. fetch a URL from the same server as before (re-using the connection)
|
||
|
||
- Stephen More pointed out that CURLOPT_FTPPORT and the -P option didn't work
|
||
when built ipv6-enabled. I've now made a fix for it. Writing test cases for
|
||
custom port hosts turned too tricky so unfortunately there's none.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (25 January 2005)
|
||
- Ian Ford asked about support for the FTP command ACCT, and I discovered it
|
||
is present in RFC959... so now (lib)curl supports it as well. --ftp-account
|
||
and CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT set the account string. (The server may ask for an
|
||
account string after PASS have been sent away. The client responds
|
||
with "ACCT [account string]".) Added test case 228 and 229 to verify the
|
||
functionality. Updated the test FTP server to support ACCT somewhat.
|
||
|
||
- David Shaw contributed a fairly complete and detailed autoconf test you can
|
||
use to detect libcurl and setup variables for the protocols the installed
|
||
libcurl supports: docs/libcurl/libcurl.m4
|
||
|
||
Daniel (21 January 2005)
|
||
- Major FTP third party transfer overhaul.
|
||
|
||
These four options are now obsolete: CURLOPT_SOURCE_HOST,
|
||
CURLOPT_SOURCE_PATH, CURLOPT_SOURCE_PORT (this option didn't work before)
|
||
and CURLOPT_PASV_HOST.
|
||
|
||
These two options are added: CURLOPT_SOURCE_URL and CURLOPT_SOURCE_QUOTE.
|
||
|
||
The target-side didn't use the proper path with RETR, and thus this only
|
||
worked correctly in the login path (i.e without doing any CWD). The source-
|
||
side still uses a wrong path, but the fix for this will need to wait. Verify
|
||
the flaw by using a source URL with included %XX-codes.
|
||
|
||
Made CURLOPT_FTPPORT control weather the target operation should use PORT
|
||
(or not). The other side thus uses passive (PASV) mode.
|
||
|
||
Updated the ftp3rdparty.c example source to use the updated options.
|
||
|
||
Added support for a second FTP server in the test suite. Named... ftp2.
|
||
Added test cases 230, 231 and 232 as a few first basic tests of very simple
|
||
3rd party transfers.
|
||
|
||
Changed the debug output to include 'target' and 'source' when a 3rd party
|
||
is being made, to make it clearer what commands/responses came on what
|
||
connection.
|
||
|
||
Added three new command line options: --3p-url, --3p-user and --3p-quote.
|
||
|
||
Documented the command line options and the curl_easy_setopt options related
|
||
to third party transfers.
|
||
|
||
(Temporarily) disabled the ability to re-use an existing connection for the
|
||
source connection. This is because it needs to force a new in case the
|
||
source and target is the same host, and the host name check is trickier now
|
||
when the source is identified with a full URL instead of a plain host name
|
||
like before.
|
||
|
||
TODO (short-term) for 3rd party transfers: quote support. The options are
|
||
there, we need to add test cases to verify their functionality.
|
||
|
||
TODO (long-term) for 3rd party transfers: IPv6 support (EPRT and EPSV etc)
|
||
and SSL/TSL support.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (20 January 2005)
|
||
- Philippe Hameau found out that -Q "+[command]" didn't work, although some
|
||
code was written for it. I fixed and added test case 227 to verify it.
|
||
The curl.1 man page didn't mention the '+' so I added it.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (19 January 2005)
|
||
- Stephan Bergmann made libcurl return CURLE_URL_MALFORMAT if an FTP URL
|
||
contains %0a or %0d in the user, password or CWD parts. (A future fix would
|
||
include doing it for %00 as well - see KNOWN_BUGS for details.) Test case
|
||
225 and 226 were added to verify this
|
||
|
||
- Stephan Bergmann pointed out two flaws in libcurl built with HTTP disabled:
|
||
|
||
1) the proxy environment variables are still read and used to set HTTP proxy
|
||
|
||
2) you couldn't disable http proxy with CURLOPT_PROXY (since the option was
|
||
disabled). This is important since apps may want to disable HTTP proxy
|
||
without actually knowing if libcurl was built to disable HTTP or not.
|
||
|
||
Based on Stephan's patch, both these issues should now be fixed.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (18 January 2005)
|
||
- Cody Jones' enhanced version of Samuel D<>az Garc<72>a's MSVC makefile patch was
|
||
applied.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (16 January 2005)
|
||
- Alex aka WindEagle pointed out that when doing "curl -v dictionary.com", curl
|
||
assumed this used the DICT protocol. While guessing protocols will remain
|
||
fuzzy, I've now made sure that the host names must start with "[protocol]."
|
||
for them to be a valid guessable name. I also removed "https" as a prefix
|
||
that indicates HTTPS, since we hardly ever see any host names using that.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (13 January 2005)
|
||
- Inspired by Martijn Koster's patch and example source at
|
||
http://www.greenhills.co.uk/mak/gentoo/curl-eintr-bug.c, I now made the
|
||
select() and poll() calls properly loop if they return -1 and errno is
|
||
EINTR. glibc docs for this is found here:
|
||
http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Interrupted-Primitives.html
|
||
|
||
This last link says BSD doesn't have this "effect". Will there be a problem
|
||
if we do this unconditionally?
|
||
|
||
Daniel (11 January 2005)
|
||
- Dan Torop cleaned up a few no longer used variables from David Phillips'
|
||
select() overhaul fix.
|
||
|
||
- Cyrill Osterwalder posted a detailed analysis about a bug that occurs when
|
||
using a custom Host: header and curl fails to send a request on a re-used
|
||
persistent connection and thus creates a new connection and resends it. It
|
||
then sent two Host: headers. Cyrill's analysis was posted here:
|
||
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2005-01/0022.html
|
||
|
||
- Bruce Mitchener identified (bug report #1099640) the never-ending SOCKS5
|
||
problem with the version byte and the check for bad versions. Bruce has lots
|
||
of clues on this, and based on his suggestion I've now removed the check of
|
||
that byte since it seems to be able to contain 1 or 5.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (10 January 2005)
|
||
- Pavel Orehov reported memory problems with the multi interface in bug report
|
||
#1098843. In short, a shared DNS cache was setup for a multi handle and when
|
||
the shared cache was deleted before the individual easy handles, the latter
|
||
cleanups caused read/writes to already freed memory.
|
||
|
||
- Hzhijun reported a memory leak in the SSL certificate code, that leaked the
|
||
remote certificate name when it didn't match the used host name.
|
||
|
||
Gisle (8 January 2005)
|
||
- Added Makefile.Watcom files (src/lib). Updated Makefile.dist.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (7 January 2005)
|
||
- Improved the test script's valgrind log parser to actually work! Also added
|
||
the ability to disable the log scanner for specific test cases. Test case
|
||
509 results in numerous problems and leaks in OpenSSL and has to get it
|
||
disabled.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (6 January 2005)
|
||
- Fixed a single-byte read out of bounds in test case 39 in the curl tool code
|
||
(i.e not in the library).
|
||
|
||
- Bug report #1097019 identified a problem when doing -d "data" with -G and
|
||
sending it to two URLs with {}. Added test 199 to verify the fix.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (4 January 2005)
|
||
- Marty Kuhrt adjusted a VMS build script slightly
|
||
|
||
- Kai Sommerfeld and Gisle Vanem fixed libcurl to build with IPv6 support on
|
||
Win2000.
|
||
|
||
Daniel (2 January 2005)
|
||
- Alex Neblett updated the MSVC makefiles slightly.
