History of Changes
Version 7.1.1
Daniel (21 August 2000)
- Got more people involved in the gethostbyname_r() mess. Caolan McNamara sent
me configure-code that turned out to be very similar to my existing tests
which only make me more sure I'm on the right path. I changed the order of
the tests slightly, as it seems that some compilers don't yell error if a
function is used with too many parameters. Thus, the first tested function
will seem ok... Let's hope more compilers think of too-few parameters as bad
manners, as we're now trying the functions in that order; fewer first. I
should also add that Lars Hecking mailed me and volunteered to run tests on
a few odd systems. Coalan is keeping his work over at
http://www.csn.ul.ie/~caolan/publink/gethostbyname_r/. Might be handy in the
future as well.

- I noticed I hadn't increased the name lookup buffer in lib/ftp.c. I don't
think this is the reason for the continued trouble though.
Daniel (17 August 2000)
- Fred Noz corrected my stupid mistakes in the gethostbyname_r() fluff. It
should affect some AIX, Digital Unix and HPUX 10 systems.

- Jason Priebe and an anynomous friend found some host names the Linux version
- Jason Priebe and an anonymous friend found some host names the Linux version
of curl could not resolve. It turned out the buffer used to retrieve that
information was too small. Fixed. One could argue about the usefulness of
not having the slightest trace of a man page for gethostbyname_r() on my
Linux Redhat installation...

- Balaji S Rao missed the possibility of replacing the Content-Type: and
Content-Length: headers when doing -d posts. I added the possibility just now
- Balaji S Rao was first in line to note the missing possibility to replace
the Content-Type: and Content-Length: headers when doing -d posts. I added
the possibility just now. It seems some people wants to do standard posts
using custom Content-Types.
Daniel (8 August 2000)
- Mike Dowell correctly discovered that curl did not approve URLs with no user
name but password. As in 'http://:foo@haxx.se'. I corrected this.

TODO
For version 7. Stuff I palnned to have included in curl for version
seven. Let's do a serious attempt to include most of this. (I do keep a task
list over at the sourceforge.net project space, reachable from
curl.sourceforge.net, it might be more up-to-date than this.)
Make sure the low-level interface works. highlevel.c should basically be
possible to write using that interface.
Document the low-level interface
Add asynchronous name resolving, as this enables full timeout support for
fork() systems.
Move non-URL related functions that are used by both the lib and the curl
application to a separate "portability lib".
Add support for other languages than C (not important)
Improve the -K config file parser.
