RFC 2109 clearly specifies how cookies should be dealt with when they are
compliant with that spec. I don't think many servers are though...
- Mark W. Eichin found that while curl is uploading a form
to a web site, it doesn't read incoming data why it'll hang after a while
since the socket "pipe" becomes full.
It took me two hours to rewrite Download() and Upload() into the new
single function Transfer(). It even seems to work! More testing is required
of course... I should get the header-sending together in a kind of queue
and let them get "uploaded" in Transfer() as well.
- Zhibiao Wu pointed out a curl bug in the location: area,
although I did not get a reproducible way to do this why I have to wait
- Bob Schader suggested I should implement resume
support for the HTTP PUT operation, and as I think it is a valid suggestion
I'll work on it.
Daniel (25 January 2000):
- M Travis Obenhaus pointed out a manual mixup with -y and -Y that was
corrected.
- Jens Schleusener pointed out a problem to compile
curl on AIX 4.1.4 and gave me a solution. This problem was already fixed
by Jörn's recent #include modifications!
Daniel (19 January 2000):
- Oskar Liljeblad pointed out and corrected a problem
in the Location: following system that made curl following a location: to a
different protocol to fail.
At January 31st I re-considered this fix and the surrounding source code. I
could not really see that the patch did any difference, why I removed it
again for further research and debugging. (It disabled location: following
on server not running on default ports.)
made it possible to select progress bar.
- Jörn also fixed a few include problems.
- Based on suggestions from Björn Stenberg, I made the
progress deal better with larger files and added a "Time" field which shows
the time spent on the download so far.
- I'm now using the CVS repository on sourceforge.net, which also allows web
browsing. See http://curl.haxx.nu.
Daniel (10 January 2000):
- Renumbered some enums in curl/curl.h since tag number 35 was used twice!
- Added "postquote" support to the ftp section that enables post-ftp-transfer
quote commands.
- Now made the -Q/--quote parameter recognize '-' as a prefix, which means
that command will be issued AFTER a successful ftp transfer. This can of
course be used to delete or rename a file after it has been uploaded or
downloaded. Use your imagination! ;-)
- Since I do the main development on solaris 2.6 now, I had to download and
install GNU groff to generate the hugehelp.c file. The solaris nroff cores
on the man page! So, in order to make the solaris configure script find a
better result I made gnroff get checked prior to the regular nroff.
- Added all the curl exit codes to the man page.
- Jim Gallagher properly tracked down a bug in autoconf
2.13. The AC_CHECK_LIB() macro wrongfully uses the -l flag before the -L
flag to 'ld' which causes the HP-UX 10.20 flavour to fail on all libchecks
and therefore you can't make the configure script find the openssl libs!
