- 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.

- 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)

- 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.
- 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.
- 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... :-)
- 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!
