Daniel (17 August 2004)
- Kjetil Jacobsen noticed that when transferring a file:// URL pointing to an
empty file, libcurl would return with the file still open.
- Alexander Krasnostavsky pointed out that the configure script needs to define
_THREAD_SAFE for AIX systems to make libcurl built really thread-safe.
Also added a check for the xlc compiler on AIX, and if that is detect we use
the -qthreaded compiler option
- libcurl now allows a custom "Accept-Encoding:" header override the
internally set one that gets set with CURLOPT_ENCODING. Pointed out by Alex.
- Roland Krikava found and fixed a cookie problem when using a proxy (the
path matching was wrong). I added test case 179 to verify that we now do
right.
Daniel (15 August 2004)
- Casey O'Donnell fixed some MSVC makefile targets to link properly.
Daniel (11 August 2004)
- configure now defines _XOPEN_SOURCE to 500 on systems that need it to build
warning-free (the only known one so far is non-gcc builds on 64bit SGI
IRIX). (Reverted this change later as it caused compiler errors.)
- the FTP code now includes the server response in the error message when the
server gives back a 530 after the password is provided, as it isn't
necessary because of a bad user name or password.
Version 7.12.1 (10 August 2004)
Daniel (10 August 2004)
- In OpenSSL 0.9.7d and earlier, ASN1_STRING_to_UTF8 fails if the input is
already UTF-8 encoded. This made the certificate verification fail if the
remote server used a certificate with the name UTF-8 encoded.
Work-around brought by Alexis S. L. Carvalho.
Daniel (9 August 2004)
- I fixed the configure script for krb4 to use -lcom_err as well, as I started
to get link problems with it unless I did that on my Solaris 2.7 box. I
don't understand why I started to get problems with this now!
Daniel (5 August 2004)
- Enrico Scholz fixed the HTTP-Negotiate service name to be uppercase as
reported in bug report #1004105
Daniel (4 August 2004)
- Gisle Vanem provided a fix for the multi interface and connecting to a host
using multiple IP (bad) addresses.
- Dylan Salisbury made libcurl no longer accept cookies set to a TLD only (it
previously allowed that on the seven three-letter domains).
Daniel (31 July 2004)
- Joel Chen reported that the digest code assumed quotes around the contents a
bit too much.
Daniel (28 July 2004)
- Bertrand Demiddelaer fixed the host name to get setup properly even when a
connection is re-used, when a proxy is in use. Previously the wrong Host:
header could get sent when re-using a proxy connection to a different target
host.
- Fixed Brian Akins' reported problems with duplicate Host: headers on re-used
connections. If you attempted to replace the Host: header in the second
request, you got two such headers!
- src/Makefile.am now includes the Makefile.inc file to get info about files
Daniel (26 July 2004)
- Made "curl [URL] -o name#2" work as expected. If there's no globbing for the
#-number, it will simply be used as #2 in the file name.
- Bertrand Demiddelaer fixed testing with valgrind 2.1.x and added two missing
newlines in the cookie informationals.
Daniel (24 July 2004)
- I fixed the autobuilds with ares, since they now need to have buildconf run
in the ares dir before the configure script is run.
- Added Casey O'Donnell's curl_easy_reset() function. It has a proto in
curl/curl.h but we have no man page yet.
Daniel (20 July 2004)
- Added buildconf and buildconf.bat to the release archives, since they are
handy for rebuilding curl when using a daily snapshot (and not a pure CVS
checkout).
Daniel (16 July 2004)
- As suggested by Toby Peterson, libcurl now ignores Content-Length data if the
given size is a negative number. Test case 178 verifies this.
Daniel (14 July 2004)
- Günter Knauf has made the Netware builds do without the config-netware.h
files, so they are now removed from the dist packages.
- Günter Knauf made curl and libcurl build with Borland again.
- Andres Garcia fixed the common test 505 failures on windows.
Daniel (6 July 2004)
- Andrés García found out why the windows tests failed on file:// "uploads".
Daniel (2 July 2004)
- Andrés García reported a curl_share_cleanup() crash that occurs when no
lock/unlock callbacks have been set and the share is cleaned up.
Daniel (1 July 2004)
- When using curl --trace or --trace-ascii, no trace messages that were sent
by curl_easy_cleanup() were included in the trace file. This made the
message "Closing connection #0" never appear in trace dumps.
Daniel (30 June 2004)
- Niels van Tongeren found that setting CURLOPT_NOBODY to TRUE doesn't disable
a previously set POST request, making a very odd request get sent (unless
you disabled the POST) a HEAD request with a POST request-body. I've now
made CURLOPT_NOBODY enforce a proper HEAD. Added test case 514 for this.
- Günter Knauf made the testcurl.pl script capable of using a custom setup
file to easier run multiple autobuilds on the same source tree.
- Gisle fixed the djgpp build and fixed a memory problem in some of the
reorged name resolved code.
- Fixed code to allow connects done using the multi interface to attempt the
next IP when connecting to a host that resolves to multiple IPs and a
connect attempt fails.
Daniel (27 June 2004)
- Based on Rob Stanzel's bug report #979480, I wrote a configure check that
checks if poll() can be used to wait on NULL as otherwise select() should be
used to do it. The select() usage was also fixed according to his report.
Mac OS X 10.3 says "poll() functionality for Mac OS X is implemented via an
emulation layer on top of select(), not in the kernel directly. It is
recommended that programs running under OS X 10.3 prefer select() over
poll(). Configure scripts should look for the _POLL_EMUL_H_ define (instead
of _POLL_H_ or _SYS_POLL_H_) and avoid implementations where poll is not
implemented in the kernel."
Yes, we can probably use select() on most platforms but today I prefered to
leave the code unaltered.
- The standard curl_version() string now only includes version info about
involved libraries and not about particular features. Thus it will no longer
include info about ipv6 nor GSS. That info is of course still available in
the feature bitmask curl_version_info() offers.
- Replaced all occurances of sprintf() with snprintf(). This is mostly because
it is "A Good Thing" rather than actually fixing any known problem. This
will help preventing future possible mistakes to cause buffer overflows.
- Major reorganization in the host resolve code (again). This time, I've
modified the code to now always use a linked list of Curl_addrinfo structs
to return resolved info in, no matter what resolver method or support that
is available on the platform. It makes it a lot easier to write code that
uses or depends on resolved data.
Internally, this means amongst other things that we can stop doing the weird
"increase buffer size until it works" trick when resolving hosts on
ipv4-only with gethostbyname_r(), we support socks even on libcurls built
with ipv6 enabled (but only to socks servers that resolve to an ipv4
address) and we no longer deep-copy or relocate hostent structs (we create
Curl_addrinfo chains instead).
The new "hostent to Curl_addrinfo" converter function is named Curl_he2ai()
and is slightly naive and simple, yet I believe it is functional enough to
work for libcurl.
Daniel (22 June 2004)
- David Cohen pointed out that RFC2109 says clients should allow cookies to
contain least 4096 bytes while libcurl only allowed 2047. I raised the limit
to 4999 now and made the used buffer get malloc()ed instead of simply
allocated on stack as before. Extended test case 46 to include a cookie with
very huge content to verify the fix.
- Günter Knauf fixed getdate.y to remove a few warnings. I removed the
ifdef'ed test we never ever use anyway.
- Gisle Vanem fixed the certificate wildcard checks to support a '*'-letter
anywhere in the wildcard string, support multiple '*'-letters in the
wildcard and to allow the '*'-letter to match a string that includes a dot.
- testcurl.sh is now removed completely, tests/testcurl.pl is the script to
use when autobuilding curl!
- Kjetil Jacobsen brought my attention to the fact that you cannot properly
Loading full blame...
