                                  Changelog

Daniel(27 January 2004)
- Made the response-headers during a CONNECT request to a proxy get passed on
  as regular headers, so they appear with -i/-I options and similar.

- Based on a patch by Gisle Vanem, I've made the progress meter display
  properly switch to a GB-display when more than 9999MB have been transfered.

Daniel(23 January 2004)
- Gisle Vanem pointed out a curlrc parser problem/crash when an option with a
  required didn't have one and was on the last line of a file.

- More Windows fixes for large files. We now build and link with
  ../lib/strtoofft.c in the app code since Curl_strtoll() is not a provided
  libcurl function... Perhaps we should consider a 'common' dir or similar
  where we put source code used in both the lib and the client. Or perhaps
  we'll just make this function available in the library...

- Vincent Bronner found out the socks5 code crashed when no username was
  set.

- Vincent Bronner spotted a problem with proxy username/password when re-using
  a persistant connection.

- Fixed the progress meter display for files larger than 2^31 bytes. Gisle
  Vanem reported.

- Gisle Vanem made strtoll() get used when curl is built with the mingw
  compiler.

- Gisle Vanem fixed the compressed help text code to display properly.

- Removed the '#define HttpPost' from the public header file, as curl_httppost
  is the proper name and it has been for quite some time now. Fixes another
  name space pollution.

- Added 'curl_off_t' typedef in the public header file, to be used to provide
  large file sizes to the *_LARGE options. Adjusted the code all over to use
  this variable type instead of 'off_t'. This is an attempt to make the large
  file support work on more platforms. The configure script now checks the
  size of the curl_off_t instead of the plain off_t.

Version 7.11.0 (22 Januari 2004)

Daniel (21 January 2004)
- Removed the defines in the public header file with TIMECOND_ prefixes. They
  have been obsolete since April 22nd 2002, and if this causes anyone any
  problems now it is very easy to just add CURL_ to the names. This corrects
  this name space pollution.

Daniel (19 January 2004)
- David Byron cleaned up how --trace with no option was treated, and also
  arguments in a config file without a required parameter!

Daniel (16 January 2004)
- Gisle Vanem fixed a few issues where compilers warned about variables
  possibly being used unassigned.

- Minor Interix build problem fixed.

- Peter Sylvester pointed out some necessary escaping needed in the
  acinclude.m4 file when automake 1.8 or later is used.

- Vincent Bronner fixed the Curl_resolv() return code. This extends the fix
  Steve Green provided on december 3...

Daniel (13 January 2004)
- Luke Call made the win32 version of the password prompting function support
  backspace.

- Dan Fandrich fixed the hugehelp source file to contain both a compressed and
  an uncompressed version in the distribution, so that more people easier can
  build curl with the compressed version.

- Diego Casorran brought another AmigaOS build patch for native Amiga builds.

- Matt Veenstra updated the Mac OS X framework files.

- Brian R Duffy brought a section to the INSTALL file on how to build a
  SSL-enabled curl using the free Borland C++ compiler. He also updated the
  Borland lib/Makefile.b32.

- I fixed the test case 509 which I broke yesterday. Now the libtest are
  compiled with an include path that points to the library's source dir, so
  that the libtests can include files from the source tree. This was made to
  make it possible to use the USE_SSLEAY define in the library test files.

Daniel (12 January 2004)
- Peter Sylvester brought code that now allows a callback to modified the URL
  even when the multi interface is used, and then libcurl will simulate a
  "follow location" to that new URL. Test 509 was added to test this feature.

- Extended the time we retry servers in the test script, and I also made it
  retry the https and ftps servers before they are considered bad. I believe
  the previous approach could turn problematic on really slow hosts.

Version 7.11.0-pre1 (12 January 2004)
Daniel (11 January 2004)
- Dominick Meglio pointed out FTPS should use default port 990 according to
  IANA.

Daniel (8 January 2004)
- Fixed the SPNEGO configure check to not use -R or other non-portable options
  in the LDFLAGS. Reported by Pierre in bug report #872930.

Daniel (5 January 2004)
- Dan Fandrich provided a fix on our zlib usage.

- David J Meyer's patch that introduce large file support to libcurl was
  applied. New curl_easy_setopt options that accept 'off_t' arguments are:

  INFILESIZE_LARGE
  RESUME_FROM_LARGE
  MAXFILESIZE_LARGE

Daniel (4 January 2004)
- Based on Dominick Meglio's comments, I made our private version of
  gettimeofday() declared static. This would otherwise collide with the same
  function in other libs (like ares for example).

- Added Dominick Meglio's description on how to build libcurl with ares
  on win32.

- Gisle Vanem updated the djgpp build files.

Daniel (18 December)
- John McGowan reported a redirect-problem that happened if a site used a URL
  like "url.com?var=content" (without a proper slash) and from that address
  redirected the user-agent to an absolute directory.

- David Byron made libcurl build fine with both the .NET and VC6 versions of
  MSVC

Daniel (16 December)
- Updated test 506 since it started to fail after the cache prune change
  yesterday. I also changed it slightly to feature a counter in each debug
  output for easier tracing.

Daniel (15 December)
- Old DNS cache entries are now only pruned after curl is done with a request,
  and not in the actual name resolve call.

- corrected the --enable-ares patch

- Giuseppe Attardi found and fixed a problem within libcurl that re-used
  already freed memory.

Daniel (10 December)
- Gisle Vanem reported that the dict support was broken. I broke it during my
  ftps-changes overhaul. I've now added a 'curlassert' function that can be
  used to verify expressions, to prevent future errors of the same
  kind. They're only present in debug-builds.

- Diego Casorran made curl and libcurl possible to build natively (no more
  need for the ixemul library) on AmigaOS.

- Dominick Meglio made configure --enable-ares support a given path to the
  installed ares lib, instead of always using it in the curl source tree.
  This also fixed the curl-config --libs output.

- Eric S. Raymond patched a very minor man page format error in
  libcurl-errors.3

- Fixed the flaw that made -lz appear twice on the link command line.

- After correspondance with Gisle Vanem, I changed the 'connection aborted'
  error text when the FTP response reader failed to more specificly identify
  what the problem is.

- Based on a patch from Dominick Meglio, curl-config --feature now outputs
  'AsynchDNS' as a feature if libcurl was built with ares. The feature name
  is the same that 'curl -V' outputs, for simplicity.

- Marty Kuhrt made the build up-to-date on VMS, and moved most of the VMS-
  specific stuff in the client code to a separate header file.

- Steve Green fixed a return code bug in Curl_resolv(), that made the socks5
  code fail.

- swalkaus at yahoo.com patched libcurl to ignore Content-Length: headers
  when Tranfer-Encoding: chunked is used, as mandated by RFC2616.
