                               History of Changes

Daniel (3 Jun 2002)

- T. Bharath fixed the CURLINFO_REDIRECT_TIME to return a correct time and

  made the CURLINFO_REQUEST_SIZE return the correct total request size. He

  also made the win32 timers use higher resolution than before.

- Renaud Chaillat made me aware of the fact that libcurl returned an error if

  you tried to get an empty FTP file. This seemed like a wrong thing to do, so

  now it no longer does that! I just hope that no one built anything fancy

  upon this unexpected behavior...

Daniel (28 May 2002)

- Cris Bailiff brought CURLOPT_CAPATH that works like CURLOPT_CAINFO but

  specifies a path to a directory with certificates rather than a single file

  with them all concatenated. --capath was added to the command line tool

  for the same function.

  Windows users need to pay attention that the directory should be setup with

  the c_rehash tool of the OpenSSL package, and that creates symlinks by

  default that need to be replaced with actual copies to work on Windows.

- Gustaf Hui provided new code that changes how curl_multi_info_read()

  messages are stored, so that they don't have to be kept around for the multi

  handle's entire life time. He also made it return failure codes properly

  which it didn't do before.

- Gustaf Hui pointed out that running curl_multi_perform() without doing

  curl_multi_fdset() first was not really a working combo. I added an internal

  check for this and have some extra select() code without timeout to make the

  library internals work identically nevertheless. We might need to somehow

  either document that once you've used the *_fdset() you should remain using

  them in select() or you should blank them somehow so that libcurl won't go

  crazy.

Version 7.9.8-pre1

- James Cone brought an excellent patch, including several tests and docs!

  CURLOPT_NETRC now takes an enum as argument instead of the previous boolean.
