Daniel (19 May 2004)
- David Byron added test case 170 - this used to crash the previous version of
curl.
- Peter Sylvester's patch that addresses two flaws in the peer certificate
name verification:
o when multiple common names are used (as in the curl tests), the last name
needs to be selected.
o allow comparing with encoded values, at least with BMP and ISO latin1
encoded T61strings.
- All 191 test cases run through the torture test OK! 'make test-torture' is
now available in the root makefile (on configure-based environments).
Daniel (14 May 2004)
- With a slightly modified ftpserver.pl I've now run almost all tests through
with runtests.pl -t. This is goodness!
- Since I have been unable to contact the CVS admins for several months, I've
decided that the current CVS hosting was not good enough. I've now moved the
CVS repo once again, see README for updated cvs checkout instructions.
Daniel (13 May 2004)
- runtests.pl -t now runs fine all the way to test 100. I believe test case
100 fails because of an FTP server problem.
Daniel (12 May 2004)
- General cleanups all over to make libcurl survive and do well when a memory
function returns NULL. runtests.pl -t now works fine for the first 26 test
cases.
- Seshubabu Pasam provided a patch that introduces curl_global_init_mem() -
like normal curl_global_init() but allows the app to replace all memory
functions with its own set. I modified it slightly.
- Based on Luca Alteas' comments, I modified the curllib.dsp generation code.
Daniel (10 May 2004)
- Gisle mailed Simon Josefsson (of libidn fame) about the benefits of a
separate free()-function by that lib to make sure the memory is freed by the
same memory subsystem that allocated it. He responded positively and this
will likely cause us to require a newer version of libidn as soon as Simon
releases one with such a libidn_free() function.
- James Bursa made runtests.pl's -t option work for any given test case, and I
edited to allow -g too. Not even test case 1 worked...
- Luca Altea made the nc= field not use quotes in outgoing HTTP Digest headers.
- Andrés García fixed a problem in the test script that made it fail to
recognize our own running HTTP server.
Daniel (7 May 2004)
- James Bursa fixed the memanalyze.pl script to conder malloc(0) areas OK to
free() and he made two failed-resolve error messages use the new display-
name instead of the internally-used name.
- Gisle Vanem tried curl with
www.etdomenenavnkanmaksimaltinneholdesekstitrebokstaversliksomdette.com
which caused problems, and I fixed the single zero byte buffer overwrite
that occurred (due to a stupid protocol buffer size and parser).
- Made the lib/curllib.dsp file get generated automaticly when a distribution
package is made, with the msvcproj.* files as templates and all
win32-sources added. I think this can be made to work better than the always
lagging-behind previous approach. I'm not sure this builds a working project
file right now though!
Daniel (6 May 2004)
- Michael Benedict brought a fix that fills in the errorbuffer properly when
ares fails to resolve a name for a case not previously dealt with like this.
Daniel (5 May 2004)
- Joe Halpin fixed the annoying typecast warning in lib/ldap.c
- Gisle Vanem fixes:
o memdebug to not access NULL on several places
o libcurl.def; curl_formparse is gone.
o progress.c; fixed the percent values being trunced to 0.
o if2ip.*; constified the 'interface' argument.
- Tor Arntsen reported that many of his autobuilds froze and I found and fixed
a problem introduced with the HTTP auth overhaul that could lead to a
never-ending internal request-loop due to un-initialized variables!
- Removed several compiler warnings on various compilers/platforms.
Daniel (4 May 2004)
- curl_formparse() has been removed from the library. It has been marked and
mentioned as deprecated for several years.
Daniel (3 May 2004)
- Rewritten HTTP authentication code. The previous code could not properly
deal with the added test cases 167, 168 and 169. I've now rewritten the code
to better separate host and proxy authentication and not re-use the same
variables as much as before as it proved non working in the more involved
cases. All the current tests run OK now, and so do the new ones. The curl
tool got a new option named --proxy-digest to enable HTTP Digest
authentication with the proxy. I also made the library support it.
- Gisle Vanem made the LDAP code work with wldap32.dll as supplied with
Win-98/ME/2000/XP, so no extra .dlls are required when curl/libcurl is used
on these Windows versions.

Daniel (30 April 2004)
- runtests.pl now scans the valgrind log for valgrind-detected memory leaks
after each test case if valgrind was found and used.
- I modified the app-code in curl to include the new lib/curlx.h and only
access those functions using the curlx_-prefix in preparation for the future
removal of several curl_-functions from the public libcurl API.
- Introduced lib/curlx.h as a single header to provide the curlx_-functions
to apps.
- Added notices in the man pages for curl_getenv, curl_mprintf, curl_strequal
and curl_strnequal that they are subject for removal in a future release.
STOP USING THESE FUNCTIONS.
- Mihai Ionescu noticed he couldn't do formposts with whitespace in the file
names and yes, I broke that on April 23. Sigh. I fixed it now and added
test case 166 to verify it.
- Luca Altea pointed out a mistake left from the Digest patch of yesterday.
Daniel (29 April 2004)
- Made IDN domains work when sending requsts over HTTP proxy as well. Added
test case 165 to verify the functionality.
- Fixed a bug in the new internal host name setup when re-using connections.
- James Bursa found out that curl_easy_duphandle() with ares-built libcurl
created a bad handle that would crash in the first name resolve attempt. This
is now fixed and test case 512 was added to verify it.
- Luca Altea provided a major HTTP Digest code fix and cleanup. We now follow
the Digest RFC a lot better.
- Gisle Vanem made the SSL code use ERR_error_string_n() where applicable.
Daniel (27 April 2004)
- I remodeled Gisle's IDN code slightly and now we convert both the host name
and proxy name to the ACE encoded version to use internally for resolves and
cookies etc. They are now using one 'struct hostname' each that keep both
the original name and the possibly encoded name. IDN resolves work for me
now using ipv6, ipv4 and ares resolving. Even cookies on IDN sites seem to
do right. I got some failures at first when CHARSET wasn't set at all which
confused libidn completely and it decided by encoding of choice was
'ANSI_X3.4-1968'...
- made 'configure --without-libidn' work
- Fixed the src/hugehelp.c file to include "setup.h" instead of "config.h" to
make the problems with USE_MANUAL on windows go away.
- configure --without-ssl could still wrongly include some OpenSSL info in the
Makefiles if pkg-config had info about OpenSSL. Bug #941762 reported by
Martin.
- Since we can now build and use quite a large set of 3rd party libraries, I
decided I would make configure produce a summary at the end showing what
libraries it uses and if not, what option to use to make it use that. I also
added some other random info that is nice in a "configure summary" output.
- Applied TommyTam's patch that now make curl work with telnet and stdin
properly on Windows.
- The changes for today below were made by me and Gisle Vanem.
The file previously known as hostip.c has now undergone a huge cleanup and
split:
hostip.c explained
==================
The main COMPILE-TIME DEFINES to keep in mind when reading the host*.c
source file are these:
CURLRES_IPV6 - this host has getaddrinfo() and family, and thus we use
that. The host may not be able to resolve IPv6, but we don't really have to
take that into account. Hosts that aren't IPv6-enabled have CURLRES_IPV4
defined.
CURLRES_ARES - is defined if libcurl is built to use c-ares for asynchronous
name resolves. It cannot have ENABLE_IPV6 defined at the same time, as
c-ares has no ipv6 support. This can be Windows or *nix.
CURLRES_THREADED - is defined if libcurl is built to run under (native)
Windows, and then the name resolve will be done in a new thread, and the
Loading full blame...
