Curl and libcurl 7.18.2
working draft of the upcoming 7.10.8 release notes
2003-09-22 23:38:52 +02:00
back to a blank for 7.18.2
2008-03-30 11:22:45 +02:00
Public curl releases: 105
Eric Landes provided the patch (edited by me) that introduces the --keepalive-time to curl to set the keepalive probe interval. I also took the opportunity to rename the recently added no-keep-alive option to no-keepalive to keep a consistent naming and to avoid getting two dashes in these option names. Eric also provided an update to the man page for the new option.

Command line options: 126
Georg Lippitsch brought CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION and CURLOPT_SEEKDATA to allow libcurl to seek in a given input stream. This is particularly important when doing upload resumes when there's already a huge part of the file present remotely. Before, and still if this callback isn't used, libcurl will read and through away the entire file up to the point to where the resuming begins (which of course can be a slow opereration depending on file size, I/O bandwidth and more). This new function will also be preferred to get used instead of the CURLOPT_IOCTLFUNCTION for seeking back in a stream when doing multi-stage HTTP auth with POST/PUT.

curl_easy_setopt() options: 150
Introducing curl_easy_pause() and new magic return codes for both the read and the write callbacks that now can make a connection's reading and/or writing get paused.

Public functions in libcurl: 56
new mirror and mirror recount after cleansing

contributor re-count (we'll break the 600 limit very very soon now) and I made all the numericals at the top phrased "shorter" and I cut out the "number of releases since the very beginning" since that's just the number curl releases + 26 and not a very interesting number anyway.

Known libcurl bindings: 36
- Added CURLFORM_STREAM as a supported option to curl_formadd() to allow an application to provide data for a multipart with the read callback. Note that the size needs to be provided with CURLFORM_CONTENTSLENGTH when the stream option is used. This feature is verified by the new test case 554. This feature was sponsored by Xponaut.

David Hull made the file: URL parser also accept the somewhat sloppy file syntax: file:/path. I added test case 203 to verify this.
2003-10-29 10:53:21 +01:00
Armel Asselin made the CURLOPT_PREQUOTE option work fine even when CURLOPT_NOBODY is set true. PREQUOTE is then run roughly at the same place in the command sequence as it would have run if there would've been a transfer.
2006-08-09 00:56:46 +02:00
This release includes the following changes:
Armel Asselin separated CA cert verification problems from problems with reading the (local) CA cert file to let users easier pinpoint the actual problem. CURLE_SSL_CACERT_BADFILE (77) is the new libcurl error code.

o CURLFORM_STREAM was added
Scott Barrett added support for CURLOPT_NOBODY over SFTP
2008-04-03 22:56:59 +02:00
o CURLOPT_NOBODY is now supported over SFTP
Armel Asselin made the CURLOPT_PREQUOTE option work fine even when CURLOPT_NOBODY is set true. PREQUOTE is then run roughly at the same place in the command sequence as it would have run if there would've been a transfer.

HTTP Digest auth fix on a re-used connection
2007-07-22 12:17:52 +02:00
This release includes the following bugfixes:
- Setting CURLOPT_NOBODY to FALSE will now switch the HTTP request method to GET simply because previously when you set CURLOPT_NOBODY to TRUE first and then FALSE you'd end up in a broken state where a HTTP request would do a HEAD by still act a lot like for a GET and hang waiting for the content etc.
2008-04-03 23:44:49 +02:00
o CURLOPT_NOBODY first set to TRUE and then FALSE for HTTP no longer causes
the confusion that could lead to a hung transfer
- Alexey Simak fixed curl_easy_reset() to reset the max redirect limit properly
2008-04-05 23:13:44 +02:00
o curl_easy_reset() resets the max redirect limit properly
- Fix the MIT / Heimdal check for good: Define HAVE_GSSMIT if <gssapi/{gssapi.h,gssapi_generic.h,gssapi_krb5.h}> are available, otherwise define HAVE_GSSHEIMDAL if <gssapi.h> is available. Only define GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE to gss_nt_service_name if GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE isn't declared by the gssapi headers. This should avoid breakage in case we wrongly recognize Heimdal as MIT again.
2008-04-07 11:26:30 +02:00
o configure now correctly recognizes Heimdal and MIT gssapi libraries
- Andre Guibert de Bruet found and fixed a case where malloc() was called but was not checked for a NULL return, in the Negotiate code.
2008-04-12 13:50:51 +02:00
o malloc() failure check in Negotiate
- Brock Noland reported that curl behaved differently depending on which order you used -i and -I.
2008-04-14 16:42:06 +02:00
o -i and -I together now work the same no matter what order they're used
allow disabling the typechecker by defining CURL_DISABLE_TYPECHECK, as discussed in http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-04/0291.html

* the typechecker can be bypassed by defining CURL_DISABLE_TYPECHECK

This release would not have looked like this without help, code, reports and
advice from friends like these:
- Fix the MIT / Heimdal check for good: Define HAVE_GSSMIT if <gssapi/{gssapi.h,gssapi_generic.h,gssapi_krb5.h}> are available, otherwise define HAVE_GSSHEIMDAL if <gssapi.h> is available. Only define GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE to gss_nt_service_name if GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE isn't declared by the gssapi headers.
