                                  Changelog

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. Now 

- 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.

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
  persitent connections and how the dir hiearchy 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 acccidentally did may not be the smartest move... I've now fixed the
  distribute procudere to automaticly 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//
