                                  Changelog

Daniel (22 September 2004)
- Jean-Claude Chauve fixed an LDAP crash when more than one record was
  retrieved.

Daniel (19 September 2004)
- Andreas Rieke pointed out that when attempting to connect to a host without
  a service on the specified port, curl_easy_perform() didn't properly provide
  an error message in the CURLOPT_ERRORBUFFER buffer.

- Daniel at touchtunes uses the FTP+SSL server "BSDFTPD-SSL from
  http://bsdftpd-ssl.sc.ru/" which accordingly doesn't properly work with curl
  when "AUTH SSL" is issued (although the server responds fine and everything)
  but requires that curl issues "AUTH TLS" instead. See
  http://curl.haxx.se/feedback/display.cgi?id=10951944937603&support=yes

  Introducing CURLOPT_FTPSSLAUTH that allows the application to select which
  of the AUTH strings to attempt first.

- Anonymous filed bug report #1029478 which identified a bug when you 1) used
  a URL without properly seperating the host name and the parameters with a
  slash. 2) the URL had parameters to the right of a ? that contains a slash
  3) curl was told to follow Location:s 4) the request got a response that
  contained a Location: to redirect to "/dir". curl then appended the new path
  on the wrong position of the original URL.

  Test case 187 was added to verify that this was fixed properly.

Daniel (11 September 2004)
- Added parsedate.c that contains a rewrite of the date parser currently

  provided by getdate.y. The new one is MUCH smaller and will allow us to run
  away from the yacc/bison jungle. It is also slightly lacking in features
  compared to the old one, but it supports parsing of all date formats HTTP
  involves (and a fair bunch of others).
- As found out by Jonas Forsman, curl didn't allow -F to set Content-Type on
  text-parts. Starting now, we can do -F "name=daniel;type=text/extra". Added
  test case 186 to verify.

- Bug report #1025986. When following a Location: with a custom Host: header
  replacement, curl only replaced the Host: header on the initial request
  and didn't replace it on the following ones. This resulted in requests with
  two Host: headers.

  Now, curl checks if the location is on the same host as the initial request
  and then continues to replace the Host: header. And when it moves to another
  host, it doesn't replace the Host: header but it also doesn't make the
  second Host: header get used in the request.

  This change is verified by the two new test cases 184 and 185.

Daniel (8 September 2004)
- Modified the test suite to be able to use and run with customized port
  numbers. This was always intended but never before possible. Now a simple
  change in the runtests.pl script can make all tests use different ports.
  The default ports in use from now on are 8990 to 8993.

Daniel (2 September 2004)
- Minor modification of an SSL-related error message.

Daniel (31 August 2004)

- David Tarendash found out that curl_multi_add_handle() returned
  CURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM instead of CURLM_OK.

Daniel (30 August 2004)
- Make "Proxy-Connection: close" close the current proxy connection, as Roman
  Koifman found out.

Daniel (24 August 2004)
- Fixed a getdate problem by post-replacing the getdate.c file after the
  bison/yacc process to add the fix Harshal Pradhan suggested. The problem
  caused a crash on Windows when parsing some dates.

Daniel (23 August 2004)
- Roman Koifman pointed out that libcurl send Expect: 100-continue on POSTs
  even when told to use HTTP 1.0, which is not correct. Test case 180 and
  181 verify this.

- Added test case 182 to verify that zero byte transfers call the callback
  properly.
Daniel (20 August 2004)
- Alexander Krasnostavsky made the write callback get called even when a zero
  byte file is downloaded.

Daniel (18 August 2004)
- Ling Thio pointed out that when libcurl is built ipv6-enabled, it still did
  reverse DNS lookups when fed with a numerical IP-address (like
  http://127.0.0.1/), although it doesn't when built ipv6-disabled. libcurl
  should never do reverse lookups.

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).

- 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.
