Daniel (28 Nov 2002)
- I visited Lars Nordgren and had a go with his problem, which lead me to
  implement this fix. If libcurl detects the added custom header
  "Transfer-Encoding: chunked", it will now enable a chunked transfer.

  Also, chunked transfer didn't quite work before but seems to do so now.

- Kjetil Jacobsen pointed out that ./configure --disable-ipv6 --without-zlib
  didn't work on any platform...

Daniel (26 Nov 2002)
- Fixed a bad addrinfo free in the hostip.c code, hardly exposed anywhere

- Dan Becker found and fixed a minor memory leak on persistent connnections
  using CURLOPT_USERPWD.

Daniel (22 Nov 2002)
- Based on Ralph Mitchell's excellent analysis I found a bug in the test suite
  web server (sws) which now lets test case 306 run fine even in combination
  with the other test cases.

- Juan Ignacio Hervás found a crash in the verbose connect message that is
  used on persistent connections. This bug was added in 7.10.2 due to the
  rearranged name resolve code.

Daniel (20 Nov 2002)
- Kjetil Jacobsen provided a patch that introduces:

   CURLOPT_PRIVATE stores a private pointer in the curl handle.

   CURLINFO_PRIVATE retrieves the private pointer from the curl handle.

- Karol Pietrzak pointed out how curl-config --cflags didn't output a good
  include dir so I've removed that for now.

Version 7.10.2 (18 Nov 2002)

Daniel (11 Nov 2002)
- Dave Halbakken added curl_version_info to lib/libcurl.def to make libcurl
  properly build with MSVC on Windows.

Daniel (8 Nov 2002)
- Doing HTTP PUT without a specified file size now makes libcurl use
  Transfer-Encoding: chunked.

Daniel (7 Nov 2002)
- Bug report #634625 identified how curl returned timeout immediately when
  CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT was used and provided a fix.

Version 7.10.2-pre4 (6 Nov 2002)

Daniel (5 Nov 2002)
- Lehel Bernadt found out and fixed. libcurl sent error message to the debug
  output when it stored the error message.

- Avery Fay found some problems with the DNS cache (when the cache time was
  set to 0 we got a memory leak, but when the leak was fixed he got a crash
  when he used the CURLOPT_INTERFACE with that) that had me do some real
  restructuring so that we now have a reference counter in the dns cache
  entries to prevent an entry to get flushed while still actually in use.

  I also detected that we previously didn't update the time stamp when we
  extracted an entry from the cache so that must've been a reason for some
  very weird dns cache bugs.

Version 7.10.2-pre3

- Downgraded automake to 1.6.3 in an attempt to fix cygwin problems. (It
  turned out this didn't help though.)

- Disable the DNS cache (by setting the timeout to 0) made libcurl leak
  memory. Avery Fay brought the example code that proved this.

Version 7.10.2-pre2

Daniel (28 Oct 2002)
- Upgraded to autoconf 2.54 and automake 1.7 on the release-build host.

- Kevin Roth made the command line tool check for a CURL_CA_BUNDLE environment
  variable (if --cacert isn't used) and if not set, the Windows version will
  check for a file named "curl-ca-bundle.crt" in the current directory or the
  directory where curl is located. That file is then used as CA root cert
  bundle.

- Avery Fay pointed out that curl's configure scrip didn't get right if you
  used autoconf newer than 2.52. This was due to some badly quoted code.

Version 7.10.2-pre1

Daniel (23 Oct 2002)
- Emiliano Ida confirmed that we now build properly with the Borland C++
  compiler too. We needed yet another fix for the ISO cpp check in the curl.h
  header file.

- Yet another fix was needed to get the HTTP download without headers to work.
  This time it was needed if the first "believed header" was read all in the
  first read. Test 306 has not run properly since the 11th october fix.

- Zvi Har'El pointed out a problem with curl's name resolving on Redhat 8
  machines (running IPv6 disabled). Mats Lidell let me use an account on his
  machine and I could verify that gethostbyname_r() has been changed to return
  EAGAIN instead of ERANGE when the given buffer size is too small. This is
  glibc 2.2.93.

- Albert Chin helped me get the -no-undefined option corrected in
  lib/Makefile.am since Cygwin builds want it there while Solaris builds don't

- Fabrizio Ammollo pointed out a remaining problem with FOLLOWLOCATION in

  the multi interface.

Daniel (17 Oct 2002)
- Richard Cooper's experimenting proved that -j (CURLOPT_COOKIESESSION) didn't
  work quite as supposed. You needed to set it *before* you use
  CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, and we dont' want that kind of dependencies.

Daniel (15 Oct 2002)
- Andrés García provided corrections for erratas in four libcurl man pages.

Daniel (13 Oct 2002)
- Starting now, we generate and include PDF versions of all the docs in the
  release archives.

Daniel (12 Oct 2002)
- Trying to connect to a host on a bad port number caused the multi interface
  to never return failure and it appeared to keep on trying forever (it just
  didn't do anything).

Daniel (11 Oct 2002)
- Downloading HTTP without headers didn't work 100%, some of the initial data
  got written twice. Kevin Roth reported.

- Kevin Roth found out the "config file" parser in the client code could
  segfault, like if DOS newlines were used.

Version 7.10.1 (11 Oct 2002)

Daniel (10 Oct 2002)
- Jeff Lawson fixed a few problems with connection re-use that remained when
  you set CURLOPT_PROXY to "".

Daniel (9 Oct 2002)
- Craig Davison found a terrible flaw and Cris Bailiff helped out in the
  search. Getting HTTP data from servers when the headers are split up in
  multiple reads, could cause junk data to get inserted among the saved
  headers. This only concerns HTTP(S) headers.

Daniel (8 Oct 2002)
- Vincent Penquerc'h gave us the good suggestion that when the ERRRORBUFFER
  is set internally, the error text is sent to the debug function as well.

- I fixed the telnet code to timeout properly as the option tells it to. On
  non-windows platforms.

Daniel (7 Oct 2002)
- John Crow pointed out that libcurl-the-guide wasn't included in the release
  tarball!

- Kevin Roth pointed out that make install didn't do right if build outside
  the source tree (ca-bundle wise).

- Kevin Roth got problems with his cygwin build with -no-undefined was not
  present in lib/Makefile.am so I put it back in there again. The poor one who
  needs to remove it again must write a configure script to detect that need.

- Ralph Mitchell pointed out that curl was a bit naive and didn't deal with ./
  or ../ stuff in the string passed back in a Location: header when following
  locations.

- Albert Chin helped me to work out a better configure.in check for zlib, and
  both --without-zlib and -with-zlib seem to work rather well right now.

- Zvi Har'El improvied the OpenSSL ENGINE check in the configure script to
  become more accurate.

Daniel (1 Oct 2002)
- Detlef Schmier pointed out the lack of a --without-libz option to configure,
  so I added one.
