Public curl release number: 95
Releases counted from the very beginning: 122
David McCreedy added --ftp-ssl-reqd which makes curl *require* SSL for both control and data connection, as the existing --ftp-ssl option only requests it.
2006-07-26 23:20:47 +00:00
Available command line options: 114
Dan Nelson added the CURLOPT_FTP_ALTERNATIVE_TO_USER libcurl option and curl tool option named --ftp-alternative-to-user. It provides a mean to send a particular command if the normal USER/PASS approach fails.
2006-07-25 22:45:21 +00:00
Available curl_easy_setopt() options: 133

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

working draft of the upcoming 7.10.8 release notes
2003-09-22 21:38:52 +00:00
This release includes the following changes:
Adrian Schuur added trailer support in the chunked encoding stream. The trailer is then sent to the normal header callback/stream.
2005-07-12 18:15:34 +00:00
David McCreedy added --ftp-ssl-reqd which makes curl *require* SSL for both control and data connection, as the existing --ftp-ssl option only requests it.
2006-07-26 23:20:47 +00:00
o added --ftp-ssl-reqd
curl_multi_assign() and CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION proto change
2006-07-26 22:25:00 +00:00
o modified the prototype for the socket callback set with
CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION
o added curl_multi_assign()
Dan Nelson added the CURLOPT_FTP_ALTERNATIVE_TO_USER libcurl option and curl tool option named --ftp-alternative-to-user. It provides a mean to send a particular command if the normal USER/PASS approach fails.
2006-07-25 22:45:21 +00:00
o added CURLOPT_FTP_ALTERNATIVE_TO_USER and --ftp-alternative-to-user
David McCreedy added --ftp-ssl-reqd which makes curl *require* SSL for both control and data connection, as the existing --ftp-ssl option only requests it.
2006-07-26 23:20:47 +00:00
o added a vcproj file for building libcurl
Michael Wallner added curl_formget(), which allows an application to extract (serialise) a previously built formpost (as with curl_formadd()).
2006-06-24 21:46:41 +00:00
o added curl_formget()
Peter Silva introduced CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE and CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE that limit tha maximum rate libcurl is allowed to send or receive data. This kind of adds the the command line tool's option --limit-rate to the library. The rate limiting logic in the curl app is now removed and is instead provided by libcurl itself. Transfer rate limiting will now also work for -d and -F, which it didn't before.
2006-06-22 21:36:53 +00:00
o added CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE and CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE
David McCreedy added --ftp-ssl-reqd which makes curl *require* SSL for both control and data connection, as the existing --ftp-ssl option only requests it.
2006-07-26 23:20:47 +00:00
o added configure --enable-hidden-symbols
changed wording on the curl_multi_fdset() problem and moved the -K change from bugfixes
2006-06-28 11:31:50 +00:00
o Made -K on a file that couldn't be read cause a warning to be displayed
working draft of the upcoming 7.10.8 release notes
2003-09-22 21:38:52 +00:00
This release includes the following bugfixes:
Mark Lentczner fixed how libcurl was not properly doing chunked encoding if the header "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" was set by the application. http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1531838
2006-08-02 18:18:47 +00:00
o chunked encoding when custom header "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" is set
Maciej Karpiuk fixed a crash that would occur if we passed Curl_strerror() an unknown error number on glibc systems. http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1532289
2006-08-01 09:39:01 +00:00
o Curl_strerror() crash on unknown errors
Yves Lejeune fixed so that replacing Content-Type: when doing multipart formposts work exactly the way you want it (and the way you'd assume it works)
2006-07-27 22:35:09 +00:00
o changing Content-Type when doing formposts
curl_multi_assign() and CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION proto change
2006-07-26 22:25:00 +00:00
o added CURL_EXTERN to a few recent multi functions that lacked them
Jari Sundell did some excellent research and bug tracking, figured out that we did wrong and patched it: When nodes were removed from the splay tree, and we didn't properly remove it from the splay tree when an easy handle was removed from a multi stack and thus we could wrongly leave a node in the splay tree pointing to (bad) memory.
2006-07-17 18:35:58 +00:00
o splay-tree related problems for internal expire time handling
David McCreedy fixed a flaw where the CRLF counter wasn't properly cleared for FTP ASCII transfers.
2006-07-14 18:58:42 +00:00
o FTP ASCII CRLF counter reset
Ates Goral pointed out that libcurl's cookie parser did case insensitive string comparisons on the path which is incorrect and provided a patch that fixes this. I edited test case 8 to include details that test for this.
2006-07-08 18:52:08 +00:00
o cookie parser now compares paths case sensitive
Ingmar Runge provided a source snippet that caused a crash. The reason for the crash was that libcurl internally was a bit confused about who owned the DNS cache at all times so if you created an easy handle that uses a shared DNS cache and added that to a multi handle it would crash. Now we keep more careful internal track of exactly what kind of DNS cache each easy handle uses: None, Private (allocated for and used only by this single handle), Shared (points to a cache held by a shared object), Global (points to the global cache) or Multi (points to the cache within the multi handle that is automatically shared between all easy handles that are added with private caches).
2006-07-07 22:58:06 +00:00
o an easy handle with shared DNS cache added to a multi handle caused a crash
Toshiyuki Maezawa fixed a problem where you couldn't override the Proxy-Connection: header when using a proxy and not doing CONNECT.
2006-07-04 12:01:59 +00:00
o couldn't override the Proxy-Connection: header for non-CONNECT requests
changed wording on the curl_multi_fdset() problem and moved the -K change from bugfixes
2006-06-28 11:31:50 +00:00
o curl_multi_fdset() could wrongly return -1 as max_fd value

advice from friends like these:
