Daniel (4 Feb)
- 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!
Daniel (10 Jan 2003)
- Steve Oliphant pointed out that test case 105 did not work anymore and this
was due to a missing fix for the password prompting.
Version 7.10.3-pre6 (10 Jan 2003)
Daniel (9 Jan 2003)
- Bryan Kemp pointed out that curl -u could not provide a blank password
without prompting the user. It can now. -u username: makes the password
empty, while -u username makes curl prompt the user for a password.
- Kjetil Jacobsen found a remaining connect problem in the multi interface on
ipv4 systems (Linux only?), that I fixed and Kjetil verified that it fixed
his problems.
- memanalyze.pl now reads a file name from the command line, and no longer
takes the data on stdin as before.
Version 7.10.3-pre5 (9 Jan 2003)
Daniel (9 Jan 2003)
- Fixed tests/memanalyze.pl to work with file names that contain colons (as on
Windows).
- Kjetil Jacobsen quickly pointed out that lib/share.h was missing...
Version 7.10.3-pre4 (9 Jan 2003)
Daniel (9 Jan 2003)
- Updated lib/share.c quite a bit to match the design document at
http://curl.haxx.se/dev/sharing.txt a lot more.
I'll try to update the document soonish. share.c is still not actually used
by libcurl, but the API is slowly getting there and we can start
implementing code that takes advantage of this system.
Daniel (8 Jan 2003)
- Updated share stuff in curl/curl.h, including data types, structs and
function prototypes. The corresponding files in lib/ were also modified
of course to remain compilable. Based on input from Jean-Philippe and also
to make it more in line with the design document.
- Jean-Philippe Barrette-LaPierre patched a very trivial memory leak in
curl_escape() that would happen when realloc() returns NULL...
- Matthew Blain provided feedback to make the --create-dirs stuff build
properly on Windows.
- Fixed the #include in tests/libtest/first.c as Legoff Vincent pointed out.
- Philippe Raoult provided a patch that now makes libcurl properly support
wildcard checks for certificate names.
- Simon Liu added CURLOPT_HTTP200ALIASES, to let an application set other
strings recognized as "HTTP 200" to allow http-like protocols to get
downloaded fine by curl.
- Now using autoconf 2.57 and automake 1.7.2
- Doing "curl -I ftp://domain/non-existing-file" still outputed a date!
- The error message is now written properly with a newline in the --trace
file.
Daniel (6 Jan 2003)
- Sterling Hughes fixed a possible bug: previously, if you called
curl_easy_perform and then set the global dns cache, the global cache
wouldn't be used. Pointed out by Jean-Philippe Barrette-LaPierre.
- Matthew Blain's fixed the VC6 libcurl makefile to include better debug data
on debug builds.
Daniel (27 Dec 2002)
- Philippe Raoult reported a bug with HTTPS connections which I evidently
added in my 19 dec fix. I corrected it.
Daniel (20 Dec)
- Idea from the Debian latest patch: use AM_MAINTAINER_MODE in the configure
script to make the default makefile less confusing "to the casual
installer".
Version 7.10.3-pre3 (20 Dec)
- Evan Jordan reported in bug report #653022 that the SSL_read() usage was
wrong, and it certainly was. It could lead to curl using too much CPU due to
a stupid loop.
Daniel (18 Dec)
- As suggested by Margus Freudenthal, CURLE_HTTP_NOT_FOUND was renamed to
CURLE_HTTP_RETURNED_ERROR since it is returned on any >= 400 code when
CURLOPT_FAILONERROR is set.
Daniel (17 Dec)
- Bug reported #651464, reported by Christopher Palmer, provided an example
source code using the multi interface that hang when trying to connect to a
proxy on a localhost port where no proxy was listening. This bug was not
repeatable on libcurls that were IPv6-enabled.
Daniel (16 Dec)
- Christopher Palmer also noticed what Vojtech Janota already was
experiencing: The attempted name resolve fix for glibc 2.2.93 caused libcurl
to crash when used on some older glibc versions. The problem is of course
the silliness of the 2.2.93. I committed a fix that hopefully should make
the binary run fine on either one of the versions, even though the solution
is not as nice as I'd like it to be.
Daniel (13 Dec)
- Bug report #651460 by Christopher R. Palmer showed that when using libcurl
Loading full blame...
