- Improved PUT/POST with NTLM/Digest authentication, the so called issue 12.
- Modified the test HTTP server a lot to work with the upcoming changes for
PUT/POST with NTLM/Digest authentication (like test case 88). Added Andrés
García's win32-changes. Improved the logging.
- Fixed the file:-related progress/getinfo stuff a bit more.
Daniel (4 March 2004)
- I corrected a problem with the multi interface when following a Location:
header or when doing multiple-request authentications. A subsequent request
could erroneously re-use a previous connection that was sent with
Connection: close. Christopher R. Palmer reported.
- Andrés García patched curl to prevent warnings while compiling with mingw,
mainly because it is now possible to have both WIN32 and HAVE_CONFIG_H
defined.
- When transferring files from a file: URL, the progress meter and other
transfer metrics were not updated properly.
- David Byron provided a "version resource" file to the curl executable for
the windows builds.
- David Byron's work on making libcurl only require winsock 1.1 on Windows
machines.
- More variable cleanups based on compiler warnings generated by Tor Arntsen's
autobuilds with MIPSPro.
- Joe Halpin helped us fix some pedantic compiler warnings on FreeBSD.
- Applied Tom Bates' patch to build on nsr-tandem-nsk.
- Dan Fandrich corrected some flaws in the configure GSS detection.
Daniel (2 March 2004)
- Fixed the libcurl code to use FORMAT_OFF_T for printf() formatting
curl_off_t types internally.
- Added CURL_VERSION_LARGEFILE as a feature-bit in the curl_version_info()
response, that signals if this libcurl supports >2GB files. curl -V now
outputs 'Largefile' in the Features: field if this is the case. Most systems
are likely to support this.
- We offer a CURL_FORMAT_OFF_T define in the public header, which can be used
to printf() curl_off_t variables. We also modified the libcurl sources to
use this define instead of the previous %Od approach (although I've left the
O-flag functional in the code). This should also prevent compilers to warn
on the home-grown option.
- Fixed the resume-check code to test for a working resume at the end of the
headers and not at the first body-byte.
- CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE is now considered obsolete. Stop using it. If
you need a global DNS cache for whatever reason, use the share interface and
you'll get a global cache that works the way it should work. You can even
have any number of global caches, all at your command. This is now also
mentioned in the docs.
- Made the *printf code support the z-flag to enable size_t printf() in a
manner similar to how glibc allows it. To make printfing of this work on
platforms with 64bit size_t and 32bit ints. If there even are any! ;-)
- Christopher R. Palmer discovered that if you CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT and
CURLAUTH_NTLM (or CURLAUTH_ANY and libcurl then picked NTLM), libcurl would
loop without succeeding to authenticate due to the new connection that was
made for all round-trips in the authentication. Now, the FRESH_CONNECT is
remade to only matter for the first connection made with curl_easy_perform()
and all the rest that might follow due to FOLLOWLOCATION or HTTP
authentication are now ignoring that option.
- Adjusted the QUIT code slightly since it could core-dump.
- Corrected the test suite's FTP server to provide a correct size to the
'verifiedserver' request.
Daniel (27 February 2004)
- Joe Halpin made the FTP code send QUIT on the control connection before
disconnecting the TCP connection. This is what good-behaving ftp clients
should do.
Daniel (26 February 2004)
- David Byron updated several files to make curl build fine on MSVC 6. He
also added the 'buildconf.bat' that works like the 'buildconf + configure'
combo does on unixes.
- Gisle Vanem made the memdebug stuff support calloc() as well.
- Tor Arntsen pointed out that testcurl.sh needed to remove the generated
files in order to have them re-generated in each build.
- Andy Serpa found out that the share interface did not enjoy life when not
having the lock and unlock callbacks set, even though documented to be
OK. It still is OK, and now the code won't segfault anymore!
Daniel (25 February 2004)
- Based on a patch by Greg Hewgill I modified how long long is used in the
mprintf code, as we can use a 64bit type with MSVC that is a long long
equivalent. This corrects some weird large file behaviors on windows.
- Tor Arntsen helped me work out --enable-debug to work better with different
versions of the gcc and icc compilers.
- Added CURLOPT_SHARE to the curl_easy_setopt.3 man page.
Daniel (22 February 2004)
- Applied the final pieces of Gisle Vanem's patch that brings a working name
resolve timeout to the windows versions of curl!
Daniel (21 February 2004)
- David Byron's fix to allow the speed-limit logic work even if you set
limit-rate. It does work on the expense of the rate limiter.
Daniel (20 February 2004)
- configure --enable-debug with gcc now also tries to detect the icc compiler
(which somehow gets treated as if it is a gcc) to stop using all the gcc
options with it, and we also provide -isystem options for each extra -I
option the configure script has figured out (for OpenSSL, kerberos, zlib,
Heimdal etc). This of course to prevent warnings on headers we don't have
control of.
Daniel (19 February 2004)
- Doug Porter made libcurl use the HOME environment variable before the
getpwuid results when looking for .netrc files.
- If 'configure --enable-debug' is used with gcc, it now checks which gcc
version it is and uses as picky compiler options as possible for the
particular version.
- Code that can be used in both the lib and in the curl app is now made to use
the curlx_ prefix. The first function to be available like this is the
curlx_strtoll() function. This is made to allow the app to use existing code,
but without polluting the libcurl API. Further explanations posted here:

Daniel (18 February 2004)
- Fixed buildconf to not use "which" as AIX and Tru64 have what have been
referred to as "horribly broken 'which' programs".
- Made sure dns cache timeout set to -1 really means caching forever.
Daniel (17 February 2004)
- Made it possibly to build c-ares with the libcurl memdebug system to better
track memory.
Daniel (16 February 2004)
- When using ares, we now initialize the ares 'channel' in curl_easy_init()
and re-use that same handle during the entire curl handle's life-time. It
improves performance.
- Fixed a problem when displaying verbose for ipv6-enabled libcurls and
re-used connections. Problem reported and fix verified by Grigory Entin.
- Jeff Lawson fixed the version-check in the SOCKS5 code.
Daniel (15 February 2004)
- Fixed a case where a host cache entry was not flagged in-use properly when a
cached entry was used.
- Andrés García's patch that checks for winmm in the configure script was
applied.
Daniel (13 February 2004)
- Ben Greear's SO_BINDTODEVICE patch for the binding of the local end to a
specific network interface.
- Greg Hewgill found out that the variable holding 'contentlength' wasn't big
enough to hold a large file!
- Tor Arntsen fixed a 64bit-related problem in date-related code in the ftp
department, and there was another potential problem in the name resolve code
too.
Daniel (11 February 2004)
- Removed a few variables that were only set but never used, as some compilers
warn about that and we do not like compiler warnings!
- Removed the need for symlinks in the tests/data directory if curl is built
outside of the source directory and the 'make test' is used. This was done
by providing a "source dir path" to the scripts/servers.
- Now, if the configure script can't find an nroff tool or an option to nroff
to use to convert man pages with, it will completely switch off the built-in
manual.
- 'configure --disable-manual' completely disables the built-in manual from
the curl command tool.
