                               History of Changes

Daniel (18 March 2002)

- Tomas Szepe found out that -d and -G didn't mix as they should. I broke this

  in 7.9.5... Added test case 32 for this.

Version 7.9.6-pre1

Daniel (16 March 2002)

- Peter at verhas.com pointed out that the curl_escape and curl_unscape man

  pages contained factual errors.

- Albert Choy found and corrected a problem with the verbose output when doing

  PASV ftp transfers. It could make libcurl crash.

  Details in bug report #530562:

- Jun-ichiro itojun Hagino filed bug report #530204 that clearly pointed out

  the PF_INET fix from February 19 as a not-very-good fix as it broke IPv6

  capability! That patch is now reverted.

  The problem with slow name lookups with getaddrinfo() on non-IPv6 enabled

  hosts are instead made by first checking if the stack is IPv6-enabled and if

  not, the PF_INET is used and otherwise we go with the full PF_UNSPEC.

- T. Bharath pointed out that when we return an "error" from a WRITEFUNCTION

  as described in the man page, libcurl did not return the documented error

  code (CURLE_WRITE_ERROR) but would instead return CURLE_READ_ERROR. This is

  now corrected.

Daniel (14 March 2002)

- Setting CURLOPT_POST without setting CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS now read the POST-

  data from the callback.

- The GOPHER support seems to be broken. I don't think I'll even start fixing

  it until someone else finds out... :-)

Daniel (13 March 2002)

- Trying 'curl -I ftp.sunet.se' or similar did a SIZE on a silly "(nil)"

  string. If such a file would be present, curl returned the size of it! Now

  we prevent this.

- Curl_sendf() was fixed to deal with situation where Curl_write() would've

  blocked and thus return -1.

- Setting CURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION to NULL now restores the internal function.

- All CURLFORM_* options can now be used in a CURLFORM_ARRAY except the

  CURLFORM_ARRAY itself. This was necessary since we couldn't expand the

  CURLFORM_* list proprely and unrestricted until this was the case. It was

  also a bit peculiar to users why some options could be used in an array

  while others couldn't.

- Removed some silly CRLF lines that had accidentally slipped into src/main.c

  Nico Baggus pointed them out to me.

Daniel (11 March 2002)

- CURLFORM_FILENAME was added. This can be set when creating a file upload

  part, to set the 'filename' field to a custom value. If this isn't used,

   -F "file=@log/test39.txt;filename=fakerfile;type=moo/foobar"

  Test case 39 was added to verify this functionality.

- The struct formerly known as HttpPost is now named curl_httppost to properly

  use the curl name space. I added a #define for the old name to make existing

  programs compile even when this new include file is used.

Daniel (8 March 2002)

- Clifford also discovered that if the client code failed early, as when doing

  "curl -O" only, it would do fclose(NULL) which caused a segmentation fault
