CHANGES.0

  I've been able to login and get files (passively) from Mathias' server using
  both ftps:// and CURLOPT_FTP_SSL. (I've made 'curl' understand the --ftp-ssl
  option that sets CURLFTPSSL_TRY.)

- Gaz Iqbal fixed a range string memory leak.

- Gisle Vanem fixed the Windows builds.

- Added the new FTPSSL defines in curl/curl.h

Daniel (20 November)
- Josh Kapell filed bug report #845247 as he found an endless loop when
  getting a 407 back from a proxy when no user+password was given. Added test
  case 94 to verify the fix.

Daniel (19 November)
- Kevin Roth fixed a progress-bar problem on Windows.

- While working with Nicolas Croiset's bug report #843739, I noticed two minor
  problems related to ftp partial downloads: if a partial transfer is
  detected, we must close the connection as we cannot know in what state it is
  anymore. This looks like a ProFTPD bug:
  http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2003-11/0079.html

Daniel (17 November)
- Maciej W. Rozycki made the configure script use a cache variable for the
  writable argv test. This way, the default can be overridden better (for
  cross-compiles etc)

Daniel (15 November)
- Mathias Axelsson found out libcurl sometimes freed the server certificate
  twice, leading to crashes!

Daniel (14 November)
- Siddhartha Prakash Jain found a case with a bad resolve that we didn't
  properly bail out from, when using ares.

Daniel (13 November)
- Default Content-Type for parts in multipart formposts has changed to
  "application/octet-stream".  This seems more appropriate, and I believe
  mozilla and the likes do this. In the same area: .html files now get
  text/html as Content-Type. (Pointed out in bug report #839806)

- Gisle Vanem corrected the --progress-bar output by doing a flush of the
  output, which apparently makes it look better on at least windows, but
  possibly other platforms too.

- Peter Sylvester identified a problem in the connect code, which made the
  multi interface on a ipv6-enabled solaris box do bad. Test case 504 to be
  specific. I've spent some time to clean-up the Curl_connecthost() function
  now to use less duplicated code for the two different sections: ipv6 and
  ipv4.

Daniel (11 November)
- Added CURLOPT_NETRC_FILE. Use this to tell libcurl which file to use instead
  of trying to find a .netrc in the current user's home directory. The
  existing .netrc file finder is somewhat naive and is far from perfect on
  several platforms that aren't unix-style. If this option isn't set when
  CURLOPT_NETRC is set, the previous approach will still be used.

  The current .netrc check code now also support longer than 256 bytes path
  names.

Daniel (10 November)
- Kang-Jin Lee pointed out that the generated ca-bundle.h file shouldn't be
  written in the source dir if a different build dir is used.

- After Sébastien Willemijns' bug report, we now check the separators properly
  in the 229-reply servers respond on a EPSV command and bail out better if
  the reply string is not RFC2428-compliant.

Daniel (7 November)
- Based on Gisle Vanem's patch, I made curl try harder to get the home
  directory of the current user, in order to find the default .curlrc file.
  We're also considering moving out the HOME-dir code from libcurl, and
  instead have the app pass in the path to the .netrc file (which is the only
  logic left in libcurl that uses the HOME dir). Then curl can use the home
  dir for that purpose too.

- Ralph Mitchell's updated testcurl.sh to the script to take an existing
  directory name and build/run/test curl in there instead of trying to update
  from CVS. Using this approach, the script can now be used to test daily
  tarballs etc.

- Gisle Vanem added a "resource file" to the Windows DLL builds, to contain
  information such as version number, library name, copyright info etc.

Daniel (6 November)
- curl checks if the existing libcurl supports things like --ntlm, --negotiate
  and --krb4 and returns error if not.

- I added three new global defines in the curl/curl.h header:
  LIBCURL_VERSION_MAJOR, LIBCURL_VERSION_MINOR and LIBCURL_VERSION_PATCH. They
  are the three numbers in the library's version number, separated for easier
  usage. 'maketgz' was updated accordingly to generate these numbers properly
  when building release-archives.

- Uninitialized variable fix, reported by both Marty Kuhrt and Benjamin
  Gerard.

- Matt Veenstra provided build files to build libcurl as a "framework" under
  Mac OS X. See the lib/libcurl.framework.make for details.

- Removed the defines of TRUE and FALSE from the curl/curl.h header file.
  They're not in our name space so we should not fiddle with them.

Daniel (5 November)
- Replaced the man page to HTML converter program with a new one: roffit.
  Makes nicer web pages.

Daniel (4 November)
- Troels Walsted Hansen fixed the MSVC makefiles to let them build curl fine
  on Windows.

- Kevin Roth corrected the cygwin package generator and spell-fixed the
  comment in the ca-bundle.h file.

Version 7.10.8 (1 November 2003)

Daniel (31 October)
- Assume that MDTM on an FTP server returns the timestamp using the UTC time
  zone. This changes the time CURLINFO_FILETIME returns for a given file over
  FTP, and will change existing uses of CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION. It will make
  the functionality more similar to how the HTTP one is already working.

- Command line options that take numerical parameters (such as -y, -Y, -C etc)
  now report error and exit if the parameter isn't truly a number greater than
  or equal to zero. This helps users to notice bad usage earlier. Before, when
  a user forgot or missed to add a numerical parameter to an option, the
  command line parser would simply "eat" the following option and it would
  cause great confusion.

Daniel (30 October)
- David Hull made libcurl deal with NOBODY and HEADER for file:// the same way
  it already does for FTP: it provides HTTP-looking headers that provide info
  only about the file, without doing the actual transfer. The curl tool then
  lets --head do this.

Daniel (29 October)
- runtests.pl now checks for and use valgrind if present. It will redirect the
  valgrind results in log/valgrind[num] but it currently doesn't scan that
  file for any errors or anything, that is still only made manually.

- David Hull made the file: URL parser also accept the somewhat sloppy file
  syntax: file:/path. I added test case 203 to verify this.

Daniel (28 October)
- Dan C tracked down yet another weird behavior in the glibc gethostbyname_r()
  function for some specific versions (reported on 2.2.5 and 2.1.1), and
  provided a fix. On Linux machines with these glibc versions, non-ipv6
  builds of libcurl would often fail to resolve perfectly resolvable host
  names.

Daniel (26 October)
- James Bursa found out that curl_msnprintf() could write the trailing
  zero-byte outside its given buffer size. This could happen if you generated
  a very long error message as then libcurl would overwrite the ERRORBUFFER
  with one byte. Using a non-existing very long local file:// name is one case
  that could make this occur.

Daniel (24 October)
- David Hull filed bug report #829827. It identified a problem with -C - if
  the full file already was downloaded and thus the server responded with a
  416. libcurl would then wrongly use the Content-Length: header and expect
  that size to get transfer, causing a "hang" until the server closed the
  connection and then an error 18 ("still N bytes data left of the transfer").

  Now we don't return any error at all, but I think libcurl should perhaps
  return some kind of info since the requested range was out of the size of
  the document.

- Based on David Hull's fix in bug report #804599, we now check for solaris and
  gcc in configure and set the -mimpure-text link flag for linking the lib
  better.

- I've introduced a -t option to the runtests.pl script. With that option set,
  the script runs special "memory torture" tests. For each test command line
  in that section, the script first runs the command line and counts the total
  amount of allocations made. It then runs the exact same command line again,
  forcing allocation number N to fail. It will try every N from 1 to the total
  number of amounts made. For every invoke, it checks that no memory was
  leaked as that would indicate a bad cleanup somewhere in the code.

  This is just beginning to work, and I've already made some corrections in
  libcurl code. When this code works somewhat fine, I'll make sure 'make test'
  in the root dir will run these tests as well.

Daniel (23 October)
- Georg Horn fixed how the CA verification is made. Verifications can now be
  made while at the same time the result of it can be ignored. This also
  affects the curl tool as -k can now be used together with --cacert or
  --capath.

Daniel (22 October)
- Gisle Vanem found out --disable-eprt didn't work and patched it.

- Test case 91 was modified and could now repeat the problem Kevin Roth has
  reported, and the bug was fixed.

- Dylan Ellicott added vc-libcurl-ssl-dll as a target to the root makefile
  to build a static libcurl that links with a shared OpenSSL using MSVC.

Daniel (21 October)
- Andrés García updated the mingw32 makefiles.

Version 7.10.8-pre5 (21 October 2003)

Daniel (19 October)
- Georg Horn made libcurl output more info on SSL failures when receiving
  data.

Version 7.10.8-pre4 (18 October 2003)

Daniel (17 October)
- Dominick Meglio implemented CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE and --max-filesize.

- Made libcurl show verbose info about what auth type and user name that is
  being sent in its HTTP request-headers.

Daniel (16 October)
- Removed support for CURLOPT_PASSWDFUNCTION and CURLOPT_PASSWDDATA. libcurl
  no longer prompt for passwords under any circumstances. Password prompting
  was instead moved to curl, which now prompts for password if -u or -U lack
  it. This solves the problem Kevin Roth reported when curl prompted for
  password twice when doing NTLM authentication.

- I rewrote the SSL subjectAltName check to avoid having to rely on OpenLDAP-
  licensed derivate code.

Daniel (15 October)
- Avoid doing getsockopt() on Windows to verify connects. It seems that this
  hogs Windows machines when libcurl is being used multi-threaded (with > ~50
  threads). Andrew Fuller helped us verify and test this.

Daniel (14 October)
- Kimmo Kinnunen fixed a crash with duphandle() when CURLDEBUG is set.

- Gisle Vanem made libcurl build and work with IPv6 on Windows.

Daniel (13 October)
- Giuseppe Attardi reported yet another segfault with ares and the multi
  interface. Me fixed.

- Domenico Andreoli removed the extra LDFLAGS assignment in lib/Makefile.am
  that was reported about in the debian bug report #212086.

  Domenico also fixed two makefiles where we used 'gnroff' instead of the more
  portable $(NROFF).

Daniel (12 October)
- Dirk Manske made the share locking around DNS lookups slightly different to
  allow the share system's DNS lookups to run somewhat more
  independent/faster.

Daniel (9 October)
- Lachlan O'Dea fixed a resume problem: "If I set CURLOPT_RESUME_FROM, perform
  an HTTP download, then reset CURLOPT_RESUME_FROM to 0, the next download
  still has a Range header with a garbage value." bug report #820502

- Dominick Meglio made the inet_pton.c file build fine using MSVC.

- The 'sws' test suite web server now #include setup.h from the lib directory.
  This makes it more portable easier.

Version 7.10.8-pre3 (8 October 2003)

Daniel (8 October)
- Frank Ticheler provided a patch that fixes how libcurl connects to multiple
  addresses, if one of them fails (ipv4-code).

Daniel (7 October)
- Neil Dunbar provided a patch that now makes libcurl check SSL
  subjectAltNames when matching certs. This is apparently detailed in RFC2818
  as the right thing to do. I had to add configure checks for inet_pton() and
  our own (strictly speaking, code from BIND written by Paul Vixie) provided
  code for the function for platforms that miss it.

- HTTP POST using the read callback didn't work, as Florian Schoppmann
  reported.

Daniel (5 October)
- Shared provided a few fixes to make libcurl build on BeOS
  out-of-the-box. New code for BeOS-style non-blocking sockets, provided by
  Shard and Jeremy Friesner. Modified the autoconf check for non-blocking
  sockets to check for this kind too.

Daniel (4 October)
- Vincent Bronner pointed out that if you set CURLOPT_COOKIE for a transfer
  and then set it to NULL in a subsequent one, the previous cookie was still
  sent off!

- Jon Turner fixed a problem libcurl had when it failed on an FTP transfer due
  to a bad path, it would cause the next transfer to use a bad path as well.

- Siddhartha Prakash Jain provided a patch with a fix for libcurl with ares,
  when working on IP-only names as we then could return "wait" status when the
  name in fact already was resolved. I edited the patch slightly to not expose
  asynch details to non-ares aware source code.

Daniel (3 October)
- Neil Spring posted the debian bug report #213180, and pointed out that using
  the name 'access' in a function prototype is not very wise as some compilers
  complain.

- Peter Sylvester provided his and Jean-Paul Merlin's curlx.c example source
  code that shows how they use ssl and callbacks.

Daniel (2 October)
- James MacMillan's patch makes curl build on QNX 6.2.x.

Daniel (26 September)
- My daughter was born!

Daniel (23 September)
- Added support for -4/--ipv4 and -6/--ipv6 to force names to resolve to that
  particular IP version. They only work for IPv6-enabled libcurls.

- curl -V now outputs 'SPNEGO' as a feature in case libcurl was built to
  support that.

Version 7.10.8-pre2 (22 September 2003)

Daniel (22 September)
- Giuseppe Attardi found a segfault in libcurl when using the multi interface
  with ares and doing repeated operations against a non-resolving host name.

Daniel (19 September)
- Added the CURLOPT_IPRESOLVE option, that allows an application to select
  what kind of IP addresses he wants to use when resolving host names. This
  is only interesting when using host names that resolve addresses using more
  than one version of IP.

- Applied Markus Moeller's patch that introduces SPNEGO support if libcurl
  is built with the FBopenssl libraries. curl_version_info() now returns
  info on SPNEGO availability. The patch also made the GSSAPI stuff work fine
  with the MIT GSS-library (the Heimdal one still works too).

Daniel (16 September)
- Doing PUT with --digest failed, as reported in bug report #805853.

- Using --anyauth that picked NTLM, and then a redirect closed the connection
  and took curl to a second NTLM page made curl fail. Bug report #806328
  identified the problem, test case 90 was added to verify the fix.

Daniel (14 September)
- codemastr brought a patch for ares to make the Windows portions of it work
  properly on NT4. I uploaded a new diff and updated the docs on where to get
  it etc.

- Jeff Pohlmeyer tracked down a very hard-to-find bug where we removed a
  cached DNS entry even though it may be in use, which caused "random" memory
  to get overwritten and thus "random" crashes.

Daniel (12 September)
- Based on a bug report by David Kimdon, I made the runtests.pl script clear
  all possible proxy environment variables before the tests are run.

- By default, easy handles within a multi handle now share DNS cache.

- Tim Bartley brought a patch that makes the GSSNEGOTIATE option work for
  Microsoft's "Negotiate" authentication as well.

Daniel (11 September)
- A zero-length proxy string confused FTP transfers.

- Bjorn Reese found a case with an uninitialized pointer, only present when
  built for ares.

Version 7.10.8-pre1 (8 September 2003)

Daniel (7 September)
- Jurij Smakov found out that the non-OpenSSL MD5 code was not working on
  Alpha (or ia64). Only the OpenSSL-version did. I made a fix I think corrects
  the problem. 

Daniel (5 September)
- Kevin Fisk reported that configure --enable-thread didn't work. I fixed.

- De-macrofied the lib/hash.c source code somewhat.

Daniel (4 September)
- CURLINFO_HTTPAUTH_AVAIL and CURLINFO_PROXYAUTH_AVAIL added, Based on Joerg
  Mueller-Tolk's patch,

Early (4 September)
- Added CURLOPT_FTP_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT - allows user to set strict timeout
  requirements on the FTP server's ability to respond to individual commands
  without placing global requirements on transfer or connect time.  Files
  affected:
    - include/curl/curl.h
        Added option CURLOPT_FTP_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT
    - lib/ftp.c
        Added branch inside Curl_GetFTPResponse to check for 
        data->set.ftp_response_timeout
    - lib/url.c
        Modified Curl_setopt to recognize CURLOPT_FTP_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT
    - lib/urldata.h
        Added ftp_response_timeout to struct UserDefined

Daniel (3 September)
- Peter Pentchev found and fixed two problems in the test suite's web server
  code, that made it segfault at times.

- Jörg Mueller-Tolk improved the proxy user+password handling, especially
  when providing a blank password.

Daniel (2 September)
- Fix for making CONNECT to proxies do the correct magic to allow NTLM, Digest
  and similar to work.

Daniel (1 September)
- Henrik Storner made libcurl work fine with OpenLDAP 2.1.22 (current).

- Jeff Pohlmeyer added a proper error message for non-resolving hosts when
  using ares for lookups.

Daniel (25 August)
- John McGowan reported that curl -k still failed if the HTTPS server's CN
  field wasn't obtainable. This was due to the CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST being
  set to 1, and libcurl failed if the CN was missing. Starting now, having it
  set to 1 will simply output a warning if no CN could be obtained (as having
  a mismatch is OK).

Daniel (21 August)
- Vincent Sanders provided a fix for name resolving when linked with uClibc.

Daniel (20 August)
- Gerd v. Egidy provided a patch that makes libcurl store the FTP response
  code from ftp servers. Using curl_easy_getinfo() with CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE
  returns that data. The option is therefore now also known as
  CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE.

- Antoine Calando found a segfault when doing multi-part/formpost using
  the multi interface.

- Antoine Calando pointed out that curl_multi_info_read() didn't set the
  msgs_in_queue to 0 properly when returning NULL.

Daniel (19 August)
- I made curl support multiple -T options, as well as -T "{file1,file2}"
  style globbing. One -T for each URL is supported.

- Jeff Pohlmeyer found a segfault when using ares-enabled libcurl and the
  multi interface when trying a non-existing host name.

- Made the libcurl printf code support long longs if available.

- Loren Kirkby pointed out that we did not clean up all SSL-allocated memory
  in curl_global_cleanup().

Daniel (17 August)
- Setting CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION or CURLOPT_READFUNCTION to NULL will now make
  them get the internal defaults restored. Previously this could cause a
  segfault. We should aim at having all pointer-related options get restored
  to default/safe values when set to NULL.

Version 7.10.7 (15 August 2003)

Daniel (14 August)
- I modified the memdebug system to return failure on memory allocation
  functions after a set amount of successful ones. This enables us to test
  out-of-memory situations in a controlled manner and we can make sure that
  curl/libcurl behaves good in those.

  This made me find and fix several spots where we did not cleanup properly
  when bailing out due to errors (low memory).

- Corrected test case 74. Made using -o with bad #[num] codes complain and
  bail out. Made #[num] support numbers larger than 9 as well. Added test
  case 86 for a proper range globbing test as well.

Version 7.10.7-pre4 (12 August 2003)

Daniel (12 August)
- curl_version_info() now returns a flag if libcurl was built with asynch DNS
  support, and this is now also displayed with 'curl -V'.

- Added a few new man pages to the docs/libcurl dir: curl_share_init,
  curl_share_setopt, curl_share_cleanup, libcurl-easy and libcurl-share.

Daniel (11 August)
- Mike Cherepov made the local binding code work for Windows, which makes
  the option CURLOPT_INTERFACE work on Windows as well.

- Vincent Sanders updated the fopen.c example code a lot.

- --proxy-ntlm is now supported by the curl tool. It forces the proxy
  authentication to be made using NTLM. It does not yet work for HTTPS over
  proxies (or other proxy-tunneling options). Test case 81 and 82 do some
  simple initial ntlm testing.

- Found and fixed a minor memory leak on re-used connections with
  proxy-authentication.

- I removed -@ and -Z as valid short options. They were very rarely used (@
  wasn't even documented).

- Serge Semashko introduced CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH, and make it work when set to
  CURLAUTH_NTLM and/or CURLAUTH_BASIC. The PROXAUTH is similar to HTTPAUTH,
  but is for the proxy connection only, and HTTPAUTH is for the remote host.

- Fixed loading of cookies with blank contents from a cookie jar. Also made the
  cookie functions inform on added and skipped cookies (for cookie debugging).

Version 7.10.7-pre3 (8 August 2003)

Daniel (8 August)
- Applied David Byron's fix for file:// URLs with drive letters included.

- I added the --ftp-create-dirs to the client code, which activates Early's
  CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS option, and wrote test case 147 to verify
  it. Added the option to the curl.1 man page too. Added the option to the
  curl_easy_setopt.3 man page too.

Daniel (7 August)
- Test case 60 failed on ia64 and AMD Opteron. Fixed now.

- Fixed a printf problem that resulted in urlglobbing bugs (bug #203827 in the
  debian bug tracker). Added test case 74 to verify the fix and to discover if
  this breaks in the future.

- "make distcheck" works again.

Version 7.10.7-pre2 (6 August 2003)

Daniel (5 August)
- Duncan Wilcox helped me verify that the latest incarnation of my ares patch
  builds fine on Mac OS X (see the new lib/README.ares) file for all details.

- Salvatore Sorrentino filed bug report #783116 and Early Ehlinger posted a
  bug report to the libcurl list, both identifying a problem with FTP
  persistent connections and how the dir hierarchy was not properly reset
  between files.

- David Byron's thoughts on a fixed Makefile in tests/ were applied.

- Jan Sundin reported a case where curl ignored a cookie that browsers don't,
  which turned up to be due to the number of dots in the 'domain'. I've now
  made curl follow the the original netscape cookie spec less strict on that
  part.

Daniel (4 August)
- Dirk Manske added cookie support for the experimental, hidden and still
  undocumented share feature!

- Mark Fletcher provided an excellent bug report that identified a problem
  with FOLLOWLOCATION and chunked transfer-encoding, as libcurl would not
  properly ignore the body contents of 3XX response that included the
  Location: header.

Early (6 August)
- Added option CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS
    This option will force the target file's path to be created if it
    does not already exist on the remote system.
 
  Files affected:
    - include/curl/curl.h
        Added option CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS
    - lib/ftp.c
        Added function ftp_mkd, which issues a MKD command
        Added function ftp_force_cwd, which attempts a CWD,
          and does a MKD and retries the CWD if the original CWD
          fails
        Modified ftp_perform() to call its change directory function
          through a pointer.  The pointer points to ftp_cwd by default,
          and is modified to point to ftp_force_cwd IFF
          data->set.ftp_create_missing_dirs is not 0.        
    - lib/url.c
        Modified Curl_setopt to recognize CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS
    - lib/urldata.h
        Added ftp_create_missing_dirs to struct UserDefined
       
- Minor Bugfix for CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION with FTP - if the file was not
  present to do the time comparison, it would fail.
  Files affected:
    - lib/ftp.c
        In ftp_perform(), the call to ftp_getfiletime() used to be followed
        by
	  if (result)
            return result;
        And then by the code that actually did the time comparison.
        The code that did the comparison handled the case where the filetime
        was not available (as indicated by info.filetime < 0 or set.timevalue 
        < 0), so I replaced the if (result) return result with a switch(result)
        that allows CURLE_FTP_COULDNT_RETR_FILE to fall through to the 
        normal time comparison.

Daniel (3 August)
- When proxy authentication is used in a CONNECT request (as used for all SSL
  connects and otherwise enforced tunnel-thru-proxy requests), the same
  authentication header is also wrongly sent to the remote host.

  This is a rather significant info leak. I've fixed it now and mailed a patch
  and warning to the mailing lists.

Daniel (1 August)
- David Byron provided a patch to make 7.10.6 build correctly with the
  compressed hugehelp.c source file.

Version 7.10.7-pre1 (31 July 2003)

Daniel (30 July)
- Jörg Müller-Tolk updated the VC makefile.

- Daniel Noguerol made the ftp code output "Accept-Ranges: bytes" in similar
  style like other faked HTTP headers when NOBODY and HEADER are used. I
  updated two corresponding test cases too.

- Marty Kuhrt pointed out a compilation problem on VMS due to my having
  changed a type from long to time_t, and I'm now changing it back to work
  more portably...

  He also indicated that distributing the src/hugehelp.c in a compressed state
  like I accidentally did may not be the smartest move... I've now fixed the
  distribute procedure to automatically generate an uncompressed version when I
  make release archives.

Daniel (29 July)
- Gisle Vanem brought changes to the mkhelp script for the generation of the
  compressed help text on some platforms.

Version 7.10.6 (28 July 2003)

Daniel (28 July)
- François Pons brought a patch that once again made curl deal with ftp and
  "double slash" as indicating the root directory. In the RFC1738-fix of April
  30, that ability was removed (since it is not the "right" way). So, starting
  now we can list the root dir of an ftp server both these ways:

    curl ftp://server.com/%2f  as well as
    curl ftp://server.com//

Daniel (24 July)
- Henry Bland pointed out that we included sys/resource.h without good reason
  in several source files. Without it included, QNX builds better...

- Andrés García updated the mingw makefiles.

Daniel (23 July)
- Tracy Boehrer experienced DNS cache problems and did some nice debugging
  and tracking which made it easy for me to correct the problem and Tracy
  could verify that it did cure the problem! When re-using a connection we
  now make sure we don't re-use the 'connect_addr' struct.

- Daniel Kouril corrected the GSS-Negotiate code.

- Juan F. Codagnone provided fixes to allow curl to build fine on Windows
  again.

Daniel (22 July)
- Edited the curl/curl.h include file to build on Windows properly.

Daniel (21 July)
- Moved the proxy credentials from the SessionHandle struct to the connectdata
  struct, to make multiple proxy connections with differerent user names work.

- Adjusted the NTLM code to support proxy functionality.

- Made the krb4 stuff compile with the user+password fields moved.

Version 7.10.6-pre4 (21 July 2003)

Daniel (20 July)
- David Gardner pointed out in bug report 770755 that using the FTP command
  CWD with a blank argument is a bad idea and I made libcurl skip empty path
  segments starting now.

Daniel (18 July)
- Cris pointed out that my fix on July 16th didn't work fully. His pointing
  out this (and his patch) also made me realize that we have a very similar
  bug in the FTP connection re-use code. We must store a separate user and
  password field for each connection we keep (at least for FTP and HTTP+NTLM
  connections, so I made us do this unconditionally).

- Since NTLM authenticates connections instead of single requests, I had to
  re-arrange how we store the NTLM data and I had to improve the test suite to
  finally work properly with persistency to make the NTLM tests run fine
  again. This also forced me to have to update lots of HTTP test cases.

Daniel (16 July)
- Cris Bailiff's bug report 768275 pointed out that using Basic auth with
  wrong user+password caused an endless loop. Fixed now. He also found out that
  we didn't properly authenticate connections with NTLM. Fixed too.

- Dan Winship provided fixes for the NTLM code.

Daniel (5 July)
- Doug Kaufman provided additional fixes for the DOS port.

Daniel (4 July)
- Rick Richardson pointed out that using setvbuf() to achieve non-buffering
  on output is no-good for SCO Xenix and other unixes. We switched over to
  using plain fflush() instead.

- Dan Grayson pointed out that we set the CURL_CA_BUNDLE variable wrongly in
  the configure script, and I had to change some build stuff to make the new
  way work.

- Peter Sylvester's patch was applied that introduces the following:

   CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION to set a callback that gets called with the
   OpenSSL's ssl_ctx pointer passed in and allow a callback to act on it. If
   anything but CURLE_OK is returned, that will also be returned by libcurl
   all the way back. If this function changes the CURLOPT_URL, libcurl will
   detect this and instead go use the new URL.

   CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_DATA is a pointer you set to get passed to the callback set
   with CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION.

Daniel (1 July)
- David Byron provided a patch that allows a client to quit the test suite's
  HTTP server.

- Gisle Vanem found and patched a lib handle leak in the ldap code.

Daniel (25 June)
- More NTLM-improvements. Less code. Smaller packets back and forth.

Daniel (23 June)
- Eric Glass provided us with a better doc on NTLM details, and I added more
  comments and clarified the current code more. Using the new knowledge, we
  should be able to make the NTLM stuff work even better.
  Eric's original URL: http://davenport.sourceforge.net/ntlm.html
  Version stored and provided at curl site: http://curl.haxx.se/rfc/ntlm.html

- Fixed the minor compile problems pre3 had if built without GSSAPI and/or
  SSL.

Version 7.10.6-pre3 (19 June 2003)

Daniel (19 June)
- Made curl use curl_free() on memory returned by curl_getenv(), as this
  should theoreticly make it possibly to build and run curl and libcurl with
  different memory allocation schemes with no problems.

Daniel (18 June)
- Improved the mkhelp.pl a bit further to make a nicer hugehelp text and to
  include a better comment in the top for the gzip compressed version.

Daniel (17 June)
- CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH is now a bitmask, in which you set which authentication
  type(s) you want to use. If more than one is set, libcurl will use one of
  the selected one and the one it considers is more secure. Test case 67 and
  68 (for NTLM) were fixed and we've reduced a round-trip for specific --ntlm
  fetches, and test case 69 and 70 were added for testing authentication
  "picking". --anyauth is the new command line tool option, and I also added
  --basic for completeness (that's the default type).

- Fixed the runtests.pl script to use the info provided by the new curl -V
  output.

- --enable-debug now sets the CURLDEBUG define instead of MALLOCDEBUG, as it
  is meant to be a generic debug conditional.

- curl_version_info() can now return CURL_VERSION_DEBUG as a feature bit, to
  indicate that the library was built with CURLDEBUG set.

- Ralph Mitchell found out that some web applications very badly uses white
  spaces in Location: redirects, and apparently IE is a browser (the only
  one?) that supports this abomination. Based on Ralph's patch, I added code
  that now attempts to replace white spaces with the proper "%20" or "+".
  Test case 40 and 42 were added to verify my changes.

- curl -V now also outputs a list of features the available library offers (if
  any).

- The curl_version() string now includes "GSS" if libcurl is built with GSSAPI
  support.

- David Orrell reported that libcurl still crashed when sending HUGE requests
  over HTTPS... I fixed.

Version 7.10.6-pre2 (16 June 2003)

Daniel (16 June)
- curl_version_info() now returns bitmasked information weather NTLM and
  GSSNEGOTIATE are supported, since it is doomed to vary on different
  installations.

- I remade the HTTP Digest code to use the MD5-code provided by OpenSSL if
  that is present, and only use our own MD5-code if it isn't.
  
Daniel (13 June)
- More NTLM help, fixes and patches from Cris Bailiff.

- Marty Kuhrt brought include fixes for making VMS builds warning-free.

Daniel (12 June)
- NTLM authentication works somewhat against the test servers provided by
  Mathias Axelsson and Cris Bailiff. Use by setting CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH to
  CURLAUTH_NTLM to libcurl, or --ntlm for the curl tool. Test case 67 and 68
  were added for this. NTLM-support requires OpenSSL.

- Dan Fandrich provided a patch, that granted that gzip and libz are available
  at build-time, compresses the hugehelp text in the curl command line and
  uncompresses it at request. Saves some ~60K in the final output executable.

Daniel (11 June)
- Long day of fighting the NTLM demons.

Daniel (10 June)
- Modified how to set auth type to libcurl. Now use CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH instead,
  and pick method. Supported ones currently are:
  CURLAUTH_BASIC     - default selection
  CURLAUTH_DIGEST    - formerly CURLOPT_HTTPDIGEST
  CURLAUTH_GSSNEGOTIATE

- Daniel Kouril added HTTP GSS-Negotiate authentication support, as defined in
  the IETF draft draft-brezak-spnego-http-04.txt. In use already by various
  Microsoft web applications. --negotiate is the new family member. To take
  advantage of this, you need one of these packages:

  o Heimdal Kerberos5               http://www.pdc.kth.se/heimdal/heimdal.html
  o GSSAPI from Globus                   http://www.globus.org/
  o GSSAPI libraries from MIT Kerberos5  http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/www/

- A missing ending bracket (']') while doing URL globbing could lead to a
  segfault. While fixing this, I also introduced better error reporting in the
  globbing code. (All this is application code outside libcurl.)

Daniel (6 June)
- David Orrell found out that sending a huge GET request over HTTPS could
  make libcurl fail and return an error code.

Daniel (2 June)
- Richard Bramante found out that "Content-Length: 0" was not properly used by
  libcurl if the response-headers indicated that the connection would be
  closed.

- David Byron's patch was applied, that makes the --progress-bar take the
  local size into account when doing resumed downloads.

- Feedback from Serge Semashko made me change the error message returned when
  CURLE_HTTP_RETURNED_ERROR is returned.

- Anonymous in bug report #745122 pointed out that we should really be using
  SSL_CTX_set_options(... SSL_OP_ALL) to work around flaws in existing SSL
  implementations.

Daniel (27 May)
- Andreas Ley and Rich Gray helped me point out that no version of HP-UX has
  the sys/select.h header file so including it unconditionally in curl/multi.h
  is not a good thing. Now we check for HPUX and avoid using that header on
  such systems.

- Rudy Koento experienced problems with curl's recent habit of POSTing data in
  two separate send() calls, first the headers and then the data. I've now
  made a fix that for static and known content that is less than 100K in size,
  everything is now sent in one single system call again. This is also better
  for network performance reasons.

- I modified the main makefile to not build the test suite and a few other
  unnecessary things by default. Now, the test suite is built when 'make test'
  is run.  This reduces build time for those who don't care for the test
  suite, and it also reduces confusion for people using platforms where the
  test suite build fails!

Daniel (26 May)
- Chris Lewis pointed out a flaw in the #ifdefs in curl/multi.h for Windows,
  which is now corrected.

- Jis Joy found another flaw in the SOCK5 code, as libcurl treated the socks5
  proxy a little too much like as if it was a http proxy.

Daniel (23 May)
- Ricardo Cadime found a socket leak when listing directories without
  contents. Test cases 144 and 145 were added to verify the fix.

- Rudy Koento found yet another problem when a HTTP server returns only a
  single-line of contents without any headers at all. libcurl then failed to
  count the data, thus returning error 52 "no contents". Test case 66 was
  added to verify that we now do right.

Version 7.10.6-pre1 (23 May 2003)

Daniel (23 May)
- Jis in bug report #741841, fixed a bug in the SOCKS5 proxy-using code.

Daniel (22 May)
- David Remahl set up a test-server for me providing Digest authentication,
  and I wrote the first working code that support it. The test suite was
  modified slightly as well to work better for it and --digest was added to
  the command line options (and CURLOPT_HTTPDIGEST to the library)...  RFC2617
  has all the gory details.

Daniel (21 May)
- David Balazic pointed out that curl_unescape() didn't check that %-codes
  were correctly followed by two hexadecimal digits when it unescape strings.
  Now, we do the check and only %XX codes are unescaped if the X letters are
  hexadecimals.

- Gisle Vanem made curl build with djgpp on DOS.

- Gisle Vanem improved the mkhelp.pl script to make a nicer manual that is
  shown with curl -M.

Daniel (20 May)
- Gisle Vanem provided a fix that makes libcurl more conservative, not
  expecting h_aliases of the hostent struct to always be non-NULL.

Daniel (19 May)
- As requested by Martin Michlmayr in Debian bug report #193630, libcurl now
  supports user name and password in the proxy environment variables. Added
  test case 63 to verify this.

Version 7.10.5 (19 May 2003)

Daniel (15 May)
- Changed the order for the in_addr_t testing, as 'unsigned long' seems to be
  a very common type inet_addr() returns.

Daniel (14 May)
- George Comninos provided a fix that calls the progress meter when waiting
  for FTP command responses take >1 second. It'll make applications more
  "responsive" even when dealing with very slow ftp servers.

Daniel (12 May)
- George Comninos pointed out that libcurl uploads had two quirks:
   o when using FTP PORT command, it used blocking sockets!
   o it could loop a long time without doing progress meter updates
  Both items are fixed now.

Daniel (9 May)
- Dan Fandrich changed CURLOPT_ENCODING to select all supported encodings if
  set to "".  This frees the application from having to know which encodings
  the library supports.

- Dan Fandrich pointed out we had three unnecessary files in CVS that is
  generated with libtoolize, so they're now removed and libtoolize is invoked
  accordingly in the buildconf script.

- Avery Fay found out that the CURLOPT_INTERFACE way of first checking if the
  given name is a network interface gave a real performance penalty on Linux,
  so now we more appropriately first check if it is an IP number and if so
  we don't check for a network interface with that name.

- CURLOPT_FTP_USE_EPRT added. Set this to FALSE to disable libcurl's attempts
  to use EPRT and LPRT before the traditional PORT command. The command line
  tool sets this option with '--disable-eprt'.

Version 7.10.5-pre2 (6 May 2003)

Daniel (6 May)
- Kevin Delafield reported another case where we didn't correctly check for
  EAGAIN but only EWOULDBLOCK, which caused badness on HPUX.

Daniel (4 May)
- Ben Greear noticed that the check for 'writable argv' exited the configure
  script when run for cross-compiling, which wasn't nice. Now it'll default to
  no and output a warning about the fact that it was not checked for.

Daniel (2 May)
- Added test case 62 and fixed some more on the cookie sending with a custom
  Host: header set.

Daniel (1 May)
- Andy Cedilnik fixed a few compiler warnings.

- Made the "SSL read error: 5" error message more verbose, by adding code that
  queries the OpenSSL library to fill in the error buffer.

Daniel (30 Apr)
- Added sys/select.h include in the curl/multi.h file, after having been
  reminded about this by Rich Gray.

- I made each test set its own server requirements, thus abandoning the
  previous system where the test number implied what server(s) to use for a
  specific test.

- David Balazic made curl more RFC1738-compliant for FTP URLs, by fixing so
  that libcurl now uses one CWD command for each path part. A bunch of test
  cases were fixed to work accordingly.

- Cookie fixes:

  A. Save domains in jars like Mozilla does. It means all domains set in
     Set-Cookie: headers are dot-prefixed.
  B. Save and use the 'tailmatch' field in the Mozilla/Netscape cookie jars
     (the second column).
  C. Reject cookies using illegal domains in the Set-Cookie: line. Concerns
     both domains with too few dots or domains that are outside the currently
     operating server host's domain.
  D. Set the path part by default to the one used in the request, if none was
     set in the Set-Cookie line.

  To make item C really good, I also made libcurl notice custom Host: headers
  and extract the host name set in there and use that as the host name for the
  site we're getting the cookies from. This allows user to specify a site's
  IP-address, but still be able to receive and send its cookies properly if
  you provide a valid Host: name for the site.

Daniel (29 Apr)
- Peter Kovacs provided a patch that makes the CURLINFO_CONNECT_TIME work fine
  when using the multi interface (too).

Version 7.10.5-pre1 (23 Apr 2003)

Daniel (23 Apr)
- Upgraded to libtool 1.5.
