                                  Changelog

Daniel (30 March 2004)
- David Byron's patch was appplied to make CURLOPT_FAILONERROR work nicely
  even with authentcations such as NTLM or Digest enabled. Test cases 150, 151
  and 152 were added to verify the functionality.

Daniel (29 March 2004)
- Gisle Vanem updated files for the djgpp/MS-DOS build.

- Andrés García helped me work out a fix for the runtests.pl script to make
  the file:// tests run fine when tested with the mingw-built version of curl.

- Fixed an include issue with netinet/tcp.h on AIX, based on input by Tor.
  This also required a minor fix of the configure script.

- The postit2.c source example used the wrong struct name for the post data.

Daniel (26 March 2004)
- Gisle Vanem improved ipv6 support on windows by making the curl build to use
  the correct getaddrinfo() function.

Daniel (25 March 2004)
- It turned out that AIX, despite having a "thread-safe libc", doesn't offer
  all traditional functions thread-safe. This URL is informative on this
  subject:

    http://publibn.boulder.ibm.com/doc_link/en_US/a_doc_lib/aixprggd/ \
    genprogc/thread_quick_ref.htm

  As a result of this, we now check for three *_r() functions on recent AIX
  versions as well that the URL mentions aren't thread-safe in AIX 5.1.

- renamed curl_strerror.[ch] to strerror.[ch]

- Joe Halpin added CURLOPT_TCP_NODELAY and --tcp-nodelay to make it possible
  for users to disable the Nagle algorthim-usage.

- Tor Arntsen provided some interesting strerror_r() knowledge. glibc has its
  own API which differs from the POSIX one. Daniel adjusted the configure
  script to detect the version in use, and the code now uses the new defines
  accordingly.

- Fixed some build flaws with the new lib/curl_strerror.c source file.

Daniel (24 March 2004)
- Gisle Vanem's fix to replace the bad use of strerror(). This introduces
  Curl_strerror() that attempts to be thread-safe _and_ works on Windows too!

- Tor Arntsen spell-fixed lots of libcurl man pages.

- Tor Arntsen made testcurl.pl work with older perl 5 versions, and Daniel
  made it not use chdir .. to go back, as that isn't very good when you've
  setup a testdir containing symlinks.

- Added a check for strerror_r() in the configure script.

Daniel (23 March 2004)
- Added Greg Hewgill's testcurl.pl script to CVS. We have not moved over to
  use this script for the real distributed testing just yet, but it is only
  a matter of time.

- Gisle Vanem provided code that makes curl report a better error message
  if --interface fails on windows.

- The regular progress meter is now fixed to never wrap due to long lines. All
  fields are now static sized. If the time in the time fields get a time value
  that would represent a time that is 100 hours or more (if not, it remains
  using a HH:MM:SS display), it switches first to a "NNNd NNh" display (for
  days and hours) and if that isn't enough it switches to a "NNNd" display if
  it is more than 999 days.

  Several of the calculations were also moved to fixed-point math instead of
  using doubles.

Daniel (22 March 2004)
- Glen Nakamura noticed CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_DOWNLOAD didn't work as it
  used to do if CURLOPT_NOBODY is set TRUE.

- Kevin Roth patched the cygwin package makefile and README to adjust to
  new cygwin packaging guidelines.

- Enabled "NT responses" in the NTLM authentication. Doing this simply means
  that we provide an extra chunk of data in each "type-3 message". The only
  reason for doing this is that it seems that using only the "Lanmanager hash"
  (as we've been doing until now) doesn't support passwords longer than 14
  characters and it turns out there are users out there who want to use
  libcurl and NTLM with such passwords! ;-) Seven NTLM-related test cases were
  updated accordingly. Mentioned as issue 29 in TODO-RELEASE, bug report
  #915609

- Moved the generated libcurl version info to a new header file, named
  curl/curlver.h. Now interested parties can include ONLY version info, should
  anyone want that (and it seems at least some windows resource files would).
  Mentioned as issue 27 in TODO-RELEASE.

Daniel (21 March 2004)
- Fixed the root Makefile to use tabs for the netware target. Günter Knauf
  pointed this out.

- Marty Kuhrt's VMS cleanup

- Thomas Schwinge made buildconf recognize ACLOCAL_FLAGS to invoke aclocal
  with particular pre-determined options.

Version 7.11.1 (19 March 2004)

Daniel (18 March 2004)
- Tor Arntsen brought some info about SGI IRIX:

  IRIX supports 3 different executable/object formats, -32, -n32 and -64.
  -n32 is default 32-bit format, -32 is the "old" 32-bit format, and -64 is
  the 64-bit format.  Libraries for the different formats are in lib, lib32
  and lib64 respectively.

  We've now adjusted the configure script to adapt to this when scanning for
  3rd party libs, such as OpenSSL.

Daniel (17 March 2004)
- Watz pointed out a few missing files in the MSVC project description file.

- Günter Knauf brought patches, code and makefiles to build curl on Novell
  NetWare.

Daniel (15 March 2004)
- Lots of libcurl man pages were updated to contain references to other man
  pages the recognized way so that they appear as nice hyperlinks in the HTML
  versions.

- buildconf now checks the m4 version too, since autoconf requires a GNU m4
  version to build proper configure scripts.

Daniel (12 March 2004)
- Added CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE_LARGE, the large file version of
  CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE to allow POSTs larger than 2GB.

- David Byron fixed an uninitialized variable case/crash.

Daniel (10 March 2004)
- Jeff Lawson fixed the SSL connection to deal with received signals during the
  connect.

- Changed the OS string for win32 to become "i386-pc-win32".

Daniel (9 March 2004)
- Changed the internals to use curl_socket_t for socket variable type. This
  should enable us to build with less warnings on Windows, where SOCKET is
  used which is an unsigned int, while most other platforms use a mere int.

- Modified lib/config-win32.h to build fine on MSVC again.

Version 7.11.1-pre1 (8 March 2004)

Daniel (8 March 2004)
- Minor fix to make curl CURL_VERSION_LARGEFILE is only set if curl_off_t is
  larger than 4 bytes.

Daniel (4 March 2004)
- 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.

Daniel (3 March 2004)
- 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.
