18faa50940 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.

de23b98522 Introducing curl_easy_pause() and new magic return codes for both the read

b430576436 Based on further discussion on curl-library, I reverted yesterday's SOCKS5
code to instead introduce support for a new proxy type called
CURLPROXY_SOCKS5_HOSTNAME that is used to send the host name to the proxy
instead of IP address and there's thus no longer any need for a new
curl_easy_setopt() option.

The default SOCKS5 proxy is again back to sending the IP address to the
proxy.  The new curl command line option for enabling sending host name to a
SOCKS5 proxy is now --socks5-hostname.
2008-01-05 22:04:18 +00:00
Daniel Stenberg
2e42b0a252 Based on Maxim Perenesenko's patch, we now do SOCKS5 operations and let the
proxy do the host name resolving and only if --socks5ip (or
CURLOPT_SOCKS5_RESOLVE_LOCAL) is used we resolve the host name locally and
pass on the IP address only to the proxy.
2008-01-04 23:01:00 +00:00
Daniel Stenberg
a46b40b7fd Richard Atterer brought a patch that added support for SOCKS4a proxies, which
is an inofficial PROXY4 variant that sends the hostname to the proxy instead
of the resolved address (which is already supported by SOCKS5).  --socks4a is
the curl command line option for it and CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE can now be set to
CURLPROXY_SOCKS4A as well.

f8172f85b1 clarify that when curl_multi_timeout() returns -1 it just means that there
is no current timeout. It does not mean wait forever and it does not mean
do not wait at all. It means there is no timeout value known at this point in
time.

1c93e75375 Michal Marek introduced CURLOPT_PROXY_TRANSFER_MODE which is used to control
the appending of the "type=" thing on FTP URLs when they are passed to a
HTTP proxy. Some proxies just don't like that appending (which is done
unconditionally in 7.17.1), and some proxies treat binary/ascii transfers
better with the appending done!

ce81cd21d3 I renamed the CURLE_SSL_PEER_CERTIFICATE error code to

51c6a5d43b Based on a patch brought by Johnny Luong, libcurl now offers
CURLOPT_SSH_HOST_PUBLIC_KEY_MD5 and the curl tool --hostpubmd5. They both make
the SCP or SFTP connection verify the remote host's md5 checksum of the public
key before doing a connect, to reduce the risk of a man-in-the-middle attack.

Dan Fandrich
9f44a95522 Renamed several libcurl error codes and options to make them more general
and allow reuse by multiple protocols. Several unused error codes were
removed.  In all cases, macros were added to preserve source (and binary)
compatibility with the old names.  These macros are subject to removal at
a future date, but probably not before 2009.  An application can be
tested to see if it is using any obsolete code by compiling it with the
CURL_NO_OLDIES macro defined.

Documented some newer error codes in libcurl-error(3)

50c10aa5bf Patrick Monnerat and I modified libcurl so that now it *copies* all strings
passed to it with curl_easy_setopt()! Previously it has always just refered
to the data, forcing the user to keep the data around until libcurl is done
with it. That is now history and libcurl will instead clone the given
strings and keep private copies.

1b7f00b2a6 CURLE_FTP_COULDNT_STOR_FILE is now known as CURLE_UPLOAD_FAILED. This is
because I just made SCP uploads return this value if the file size of
the upload file isn't given with CURLOPT_INFILESIZE*. Docs updated to
reflect this news, and a define for the old name was added to the public
header file.

76627b322e - Robert Iakobashvil added curl_multi_socket_action() to libcurl, which is a
function that deprecates the curl_multi_socket() function. Using the new
  function the application tell libcurl what action that was found in the
  socket that it passes in. This gives a significant performance boost as it
  allows libcurl to avoid a call to poll()/select() for every call to
  curl_multi_socket*().

28b932fb4e - Shmulik Regev fixed so that the final CRLF of HTTP response headers are sent
to the debug callback.

- Shmulik Regev added CURLOPT_HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING and
  CURLOPT_HTTP_TRANSFER_DECODING that if set to zero will disable libcurl's
  internal decoding of content or transfer encoded content. This may be
  preferable in cases where you use libcurl for proxy purposes or similar. The
  command line tool got a --raw option to disable both at once.

91386937ff - Michael Wallner provided a patch that adds support for CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS
and CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS that, as their names should hint, do the
  timeouts with millisecond resolution instead. The only restriction to that
  is the alarm() (sometimes) used to abort name resolves as that uses full
  seconds. I fixed the FTP response timeout part of the patch.

  Internally we now count and keep the timeouts in milliseconds but it also
  means we multiply set timeouts with 1000. The effect of this is that no
  timeout can be set to more than 2^31 milliseconds (on 32 bit systems), which
  equals 24.86 days.  We probably couldn't before either since the code did
  *1000 on the timeout values on several places already.

cde5e35d9b Fixed CURLOPT_FAILONERROR to return CURLE_HTTP_RETURNED_ERROR even for the
case when 401 or 407 are returned, *IF* no auth credentials have been given.
The CURLOPT_FAILONERROR option is not possible to make fool-proof for 401
and 407 cases when auth credentials is given, but we've now covered this
somewhat more.

You might get some amounts of headers transferred before this situation is
detected, like for when a "100-continue" is received as a response to a
POST/PUT and a 401 or 407 is received immediately afterwards.

Added test 281 to verify this change.

b61c06384a Jeff Pohlmeyer has been working with the hiperfifo.c example source code,
and while doing so it became apparent that the current timeout system for
the socket API really was a bit awkward since it become quite some work to
be sure we have the correct timeout set.

Jeff then provided the new CURLMOPT_TIMERFUNCTION that is yet another
callback the app can set to get to know when the general timeout time
changes and thus for an application like hiperfifo.c it makes everything a
lot easier and nicer. There's a CURLMOPT_TIMERDATA option too of course in
good old libcurl tradition.

dfe1884c25 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.

77475f2ad0 Andreas Ntaflos reported a bug in libcurl.m4: When configuring my GNU
autotools project, which optionally (default=yes) uses libcurl on a system
without a (usable) libcurl installation, but not specifying
`--without-libcurl', configure determines correctly that no libcurl is
available, however, the LIBCURL variable gets expanded to `LIBCURL = -lcurl'
in the resulting Makefiles.

David Shaw fixed the flaw.

it to be set to 0, which then would return an error code on the first
Location: found. Based on Nis' patch, now libcurl supports CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS
set to 0, or -1 for infinity. Added test case 274 to verify.

a4773fcbbb Toby Peterson added CURLOPT_IGNORE_CONTENT_LENGTH to the library, accessible
from the command line tool with --ignore-content-length. This will make it
easier to download files from Apache 1.x (and similar) servers that are
still having problems serving files larger than 2 or 4 GB. When this option
is enabled, curl will simply have to wait for the server to close the
connection to signal end of transfer. I wrote test case 269 that runs a
simple test that this works.

177dbc7be0 Ian Ford asked about support for the FTP command ACCT, and I discovered it is
present in RFC959... so now (lib)curl supports it as well. --ftp-account and
CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT set the account string. (The server may ask for an account
string after PASS have been sent away. The client responds with "ACCT [account
string]".) Added test case 228 and 229 to verify the functionality. Updated
the test FTP server to support ACCT somewhat.

(http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=12285), when connecting to an
IPv6 host with FTP, --disable-epsv (or --disable-eprt) effectively disables
the ability to transfer a file. Now, when connected to an FTP server with
IPv6, these FTP commands can't be disabled even if asked to with the
