It supports several languages e.g. most of European language, Japanese,
Chinese (simplified, traditional), Korean, Vietnamese, Thai, and Unicode
(UCS-4).
You need one of x11/kterm package or latest version of xterm which comes
with XFree86 to display multiple languages correctly. Also you may want
fonts/intlfonts package installed. Please take a look at README.m17n
for mor information.

Muntilingualizaion of w3m
2001/03/24
H. Sakamoto
Introduction
I have tried the muntilingualization of w3m (w3m-m17n).
The patch for w3m-0.2.1 is available on the following site.
http://www2u.biglobe.ne.jp/~hsaka/w3m/patch/w3m-m17n-0.18.tar.gz
README.m17n
It is a development version. And enough test is not preformed because
I can understand Japanese only. Please use, test, and report bugs.

determined by the setting of ${SSLBASE} in bsd.pkg.mk. This closes PR

- Fixed a bug in and cleaned up class 2/3 delay pools incrementing.
- Fixed a coredump bug when using external dnsservers that become overloaded.
- Fixed some NULL pointer bugs for NULL storage system when reconfiguring.
- Fixed a bug with useragent logging that caused Squid to think the logfile
never got opened.
- Fixed a compiling bug with --disable-unlinkd.
- Changed src/squid.h to always use O_NONBLOCK on Solaris if it is defined.
- Fixed a bug with signed/unsigned bitfield flag variables that caused
problems on Solaris.
- Fixed a bug in clientBuildReplyHeader() that could add an Age: header with
a negative value, causing an assertion later.
- Fixed an SNMP reporting bug. cacheCurrentResFileDescrCnt was returning
the number of FDs in use, rather than the number of reserved FDs.
- Added the 'pipeline_prefetch' configuration option.
- cache_dir syntax changed to use options instead of many arguments. This
means that the max_objsize argument now is an optional option, and that
the syntax for how to specify the diskd magics is slightly different.
- Various fixes for CYGWIN
- Upgraded MSNT auth module to version 2.0.
- Fixed potential problems with HTML by making sure all HTML output is
properly encoded.
- Fixed a memory initialization problem with resource records in
lib/rfc1035.c.
- Rewrote date parsing in lib/rfc1123.c and made it a little more lenient.
- Added Cache-control: max-stale support.
- Fixed 'range_offset_limit' again. The problem this time is that
client_side.c wouldn't set the we_dont_do_ranges flag for normal cache
misses. It was only being set for requests that might have been hits,
but we decided to change to a miss.
- Added the Authenticate-Info and Proxy-Authenticate-Info headers from
RFC 2617.
- HTTP header lines longer than 64K could cause an assertion.
Now they get ignored.
- Fixed an IP address scanning bug that caused "123.foo.com" to be
interpreted as an IP address.
- Converted many structure allocations to use mem pools.
- Changed proxy authentication to strip leading whitespace from usernames
after decoding.
- Prevented NULL pointer access in aclMatchAcl(). Some ACL types require
checklist->request_t, but it won't be available in some cases (like
snmp_access). Warn the admin that the ACL can't be checked and that
we're denying it.
- Allow zero-size disk caches.
- The actual filesystem blocksize is now used to account
for space overheads when calculating on-disk cache size.
- Made the maximum memory cache object size configurable.
- Added 'minimum_direct_rtt' configuration option.
- Added 'ie_refresh' configuration option, which is a hack
to turn IMS requests into no-cache requests.
- Added Linux netfilter support for intercepted connections.
- Fixed a bug with clientAccessCheck() that allowed proxy
requests in accel mode.
- Fixed a bug with 301/302 replies from redirectors. Now
we force them to be cache misses.
- Accommodated changes to the IP-Filter ioctl() interface
for intercepted connections.
- Fixed handling of client lifetime timeouts.
- Fixed a buffer overflow bug with internal DNS replies
by truncating received packets to 512 bytes, as per
RFC 1035.
- Added "forward.log" support, but its work in progress.
- Rewrote much of the IP and FQDN cache implementation.
This change gets rid of pending hits.
- Changed peerWouldBePinged() to return false if our
ICP/HTCP port is zero (i.e. disabled).
- Changed src/net_db.c to use src/logfile.c routines,
rather than stdio, because of solaris stdio filedescriptor
limits.
- Made netdbReloadState() more robust in case of corrupted
data.
- Rewrote some freshness/staleness functions in src/refresh.c,
partially inspired to support cache-control max-stale.
- Fixed status code logging for SSL/CONNECT requests.
- Added a hack to subtract cache digest network traffic
from statistics so that byte hit ratio stays positive
and more closely reflects what people expect it to be.
- Fixed a bug with storeCheckTooSmall() that caused
internal icons and cache digests to always be released.
- Added statfs(2) support for displaying actual filesystem
usage in the cache manager 'storedir' output.
- Changed status reporting for storage rebuilding. Now it
prints percentage complete instead of number of entries
parsed.
- Use mkstemp() rather than problem-prone tempnam().
- Changed urlParse() to condense multiple dots in hostnames.
- Major rewrite of async-io (src/fs/aufs) to make it behave
a bit more sane with substantially less overhead. Some
tuning work still remains to make it perform optimal.
See the start of store_asyncufs.h for all the knobs.
- Fixed storage FS modules to use individual swap space
high/low values rather than the global ones.
- Fixed storage FS bugs with calling file_map_bit_reset()
before checking the bit value. Calling with an invalid
value caused memory corruption in random places.
- Prevent NULL pointer access in store_repl_lru.c for
entries that exist in the hash but not the LRU list.
- Added --enable-auth-modules=... configure option
- Improved ICP dead peer detection to also work when the workload
is low
- Improved TCP dead peer detection and recovery
- Squid is now a bit more persistent in trying to find a alive
parent when never_direct is used.
- nonhierarchical_direct squid.conf directive to make non-ICP
peer selection behave a bit more like ICP selection with respect
to hierarchy.
- Bugfix where netdb selection could override never_direct
- ICP timeout selection now prefers to use parents only when
calculating the dynamic timeout to compensate for common RTT
differences between parents and siblings.
- No longer starts to swap out objects which are known to be above
the maximum allowed size.
- allow-miss cache_peer option disabling the use of "only-if-cached".
Meant to be used in conjunction with icp_hit_stale.
- Delay pools tuned to allow large initial pool values
- cachemgr filesystem space information changed to show useable space
rather than raw space, and platform support somewhat extended.
- Logs destination IP in the hierarchy log tag when going direct.
(can be disabled by turning log_ip_on_direct off)
- Async-IO on linux now makes proper use of mutexes. This fixes some
odd pthread segfaults on SMP Linux machines, at a slight performance
penalty.
- %s can now be used in cache_swap_log and will be substituded with
the last path component of cache_dir.
- no_cache is now a full ACL check without, allowing most ACL types
to be used.
- The CONNECT method now obeys miss_access requirements
- proxy_auth_regex and ident_regex ACL types
- Fixed a StoreEntry memory leak during "dirty" rebuild
- Helper processes no longer hold unrelated filedescriptors open
- Helpers are now restarted when the logs are rotated
- Negatively cached DNS entries are now purged on "reload".
- PURGE now also purges the DNS cache
- HEAD on FTP objects no longer retreives the whole object
- More cleanups of the dstdomain ACL type
- Squid no longer tries to do Range internally if it is not supported
by the origin server. Doing so could cause bandwidth spikes and/or
negative hit ratio.
- httpd_accel_single_host squid.conf directive
- "round-robin" cache_peer counters are reset every 5 minutes to
compensate previously dead peers
- DNS retransmit parameters
- Show all FTP server messages
- squid.conf.default now indicates if a directive isn't enabled in
the installed binary, and what configure option to use for enabling it
- Fixed a temporary memory leak on persistent POSTs
- Fixed a temporary memory leak when the server response headers
includes NULL characters
- authenticate_ip_ttl_is_strict squid.conf option
- req_mime_type ACL type
- A reworked storage system that supports storage directories in
a more modular fashion. The object replacement and IO is now
responsibility of the storage directory, and not of the storage
manager.
- Fixed a bogous MD5 mismatch warning sometimes seen when using
aufs or diskd stores
- Added --enable-stacktraces configure option to set PRINT_STACK_TRACE,
and extended support for this to Linux/GNU libc.
- Disabled the "request timeout" error message sent if the user agent
did not provide a request in a timely manner after opening the
connection. Now the connection is silently closed. The error message
was confusing user agents utilizing persistent connections.
- Fixed configure --enable descriptions to match the arg names.
- Eliminated compile warnings from auth_modules/MSNT code.
- Require first character of hostnames to be alphanumeric.
- Made ARP ACL work for Solaris.
- Removed storeClientListSearch().
- Added counters to track diskd operation success and
failures.
- Fixed range_offset_limit.
- Added code to retry ServFail replies for internal DNS
lookups.
- Added referer header logging (Jens-S. Voeckler).
- Added "multi-domain-NTLM" authentication module, a Perl
script from Thomas Jarosch.
- Added configurable warning messages for high memory usage,
high response time, and high page faults.
- Made store dir selection algorithm configurable.
- Added support for admin-definable extension methods,
up to 20.
- Added 'maximum_object_size_in_memory' as a configuration option -
this defines the watermark where objects transit from being true
hot objects to being in-transit objects in memory. It currently
defaults to 8 KB.
- Change to the fqdn code which changes how pending DNS requests
are treated as private and only become public once they are
completed. This can add extra load on DNS servers but prevents
all the pending clients blocking if one of the queries got
stuck. (Duane Wessels)
- Converted more code to use MemPools, from Andres Kroonmaa.
- Added more CYGWIN patches from Robert Collins.
- Added Logfile module.
- Added DISKD stats via cachemgr.
- Added squid.conf options for DISKD magic constants.

Changes with Apache 2.0.16
*) Change the default installation directory to /usr/local/apache2,
as now defined by the "Apache" layout in config.layout. [Marc Slemko]
*) OS/2: Added support for building loadable modules as OS/2 DLLs.
[Brian Havard]
*) Get MaxRequestsPerChild working with the Windows MPM.
[Bill Stoddard]
*) Make generic hooks to work, with mod_generic_hook_import/export
experimental modules. [Ben Laurie, Will Rowe]
*) Fix segfaults for configuration file syntax errors such as
"<Directory>" followed by "</Directory" and
"<Directory>" followed by "</Directoryz>". [Jeff Trawick]
*) Cleanup the --enable-layout option of configure. This makes
us use a consistent location for the config.layout file, and it
makes configure more portable.
[jun-ichiro hagino <itojun@iijlab.net>]
*) Changes to 'ab'; fixed int overrun's, added statistics, output in
csv/gnuplot format, rudimentary ssl support and various other tweaks
to make results more true to what is measured. The upshot of this it
turns out that 'ab' has often underreported the true performance of
apache. Often by a order of magnitude :-) See talk/paper of Sander
Temme <sctemme@covalent.net> at April ApacheCon 2001 for details.
[Dirk-Willem van Gulik]
*) Clean up mod_cgid's temporary request pool. Besides fixing a
storage leak this ensures that some unnecessary pipes are closed.
[Jeff Trawick]
*) Performance: Add quick_handler hook. This hook is called at the
very beginning of the request processing before location_walk,
translate_name, etc. This hook is useful for URI keyed content
caches like Mike Abbott's Quick Shortcut Cache.
[Bill Stoddard]
*) top_module global variable renamed to ap_top_module [Perl]
*) Move ap_set_last_modified to the core. This is a potentially
controversial change, because this is kind of HTTP specific. However
many protocols should be able to take advantage of this kind of
information. I expect that headers will need one more layer of
indirection for multi-protocol work, but this is a small step in
the right direction. [Ryan Bloom]
*) Enable mod_status by default. This matches what Apache 1.3 does.
[Ed Korthof]
*) Add a ScriptSock directive to the default config file. This is
only enabled when mod_cgid is used.
[Taketo Kabe <kabe@sra-tohoku.co.jp>]

Changes include:
General:
- Fixed X selections so that we no longer try to pass UTF-8 encoded text
in STRING atoms.
- Improved the table layout code so that now we render tables very close
to the big name browsers, one or two small issues left
- Added many missing attributes to the HTML export code so that at least
we pass on the attributes we understand.
- Support for sub sup and strike elements.
- We now parse param elements before emitting the object requested signal
so that we can make an informed choice about whether or not the object is
supported.
Editor:
- We now hook to the gnome-spell component to do spelling.
- Rename the idl and oafinfo to bring us in line with the new naming
conventions
- The editor control now exposes an interface for issuing editor commands
Ebrowser:
- New component to support simple browsing tasks.

Version 7.7.1
Daniel (3 April 2001)
- Puneet Pawaia pointed out two serious problems. Libcurl would attempt to
read bad memory during situations when an (ftp) connection attempt failed.
Also, the lib/Makefile.vc6 was corrected.
- More investigations in the Location: following code made me realize that
it was not clean enough to work transparantly with persistant and non-
persistant connections. I think I've fixed it now.
Daniel (29 March 2001)
- Georg Horn mailed me some corrections for the Curl::easy perl interface.
- Experimental ftps:// support added. It is basically FTP over SSL for the
control connection. It still makes all data transfers going over unencrypted
connections. Rainer Weikusat's ftpd-ssl server hack supports this and I used
that to verify the functionality.
Daniel (27 March 2001)
- Guenole Bescon discovered that if you set a CURLOPT_TIMEOUT and then tried
to get a file from a site and it fails, the SIGALRM would still be sent
after the timeout-time, quite inexpectedly!
- I added an ftp transfer example to docs/examples/ and I also wrote a tiny
example makefile that can be used as a start when building one of the
examples.
Version 7.7.1-beta1
Daniel (26 March 2001)
- Mohamed Lrhazi reported problems with 7.6.1 and persistant HTTP/1.0
connections (when the server replied a Connection: Keep-Alive) and this
problem was not properly dealt with in 7.7 either. A patch was posted to the
curl-and-php mailing list.
Daniel (24 March 2001)
- Colin Watson reported about a problem and brought a patch that corrected it,
which was about the man page and lines starting with a single quote (') in a
way that gnroff doesn't like.
Daniel (23 March 2001)
- Peter Bray reported correctly that the root makefile used make instead of
$(MAKE) for the test target.
- Corrected the Curl::easy perl interface to use curl_easy_setopt() and not
curl_setopt() which was removed in 7.7!
- SM provided updates on three documents (MANUAL, INSTALL and FAQ).
- When following a Location:, libcurl would sometimes write to the URL string
in a way it shouldn't. As the pointer is passed-in to libcurl from an
application, we can't be allowed to write to it. The particular bug report
from 'nk' that brought this up was because he had a read-only URL that then
caused a libcurl crash!
- No longer reads HEAD responses longer than to the last header. Previously,
curl would read the full reply if the connection was a "close" one.
- libcurl did re-use connections way too much. Doing "curl
http://www.{microsoft,ibm}.com" would make it re-use the connection which
made the second request return very odd results.
Daniel (22 March 2001)
- Edin Kadribasic made me aware that curl should not re-send POST requests
when following 302-redirects. I made 302 work like 303 which means curl uses
GET in the following request(s).
- libcurl now reset the "followed-location" counter on each invoke of
curl_easy_perform() as it otherwise would sum up all redirects on the same
connection and thus could reach the maxredirs counter wrongly.
- Jim Drash suggested curl_escape() should not re-encode what already looks
like an encoded sequence and I think that's a fair suggestion.
Version 7.7
Daniel (22 March 2001)
- The configure script now fails with an error message if gethostbyname_r() is
detected but it couldn't figure out how to invoke it (what amount of
arguments it is supposed to get). Reports from Andrés García made me aware
of this need.
- Talking with Jim Drash made me finally put the curl_escape and curl_unescape
functions in the curl.h include file and write man pages for them. The
escape function was modified to use the same interface as the unescape one
had.
- No bug reports at all on the latest betas. Release time coming up.
Version 7.7-beta5
Daniel (19 March 2001)
- Georg Ottinger reported problems with using -C together with -L in the sense
that the -C info got lost when it was redirected. I could not repeat this
problem on the 7.7 branch why I leave this for the moment. Test case 39 was
added to do exactly this, and it seems to do right.
- Christian Robottom Reis reported how his 7.7 beta didn't successfully do
form posts as elegantly as 7.6.1 did. Indeed, this was a flaw in the header
engine, as HTTP 1.1 has introduced a new 100 "transient" return code for PUT
and POST operations that I need to add support for. Section 8.2.3 in RFC2616
has all the details. Seems to work now!
Daniel (16 March 2001)
- After having experienced another machine break-down, we're back.
- Georg Horn's perl interface Curl::easy is now included in the curl release
archive. The perl/ directory is now present. Please help me with docs,
examples and updates you think fit.
- Made a new php/ directory in the release archive and moved the PHP examples
into a subdirectory in there. Not much PHP info yet, but I plan to. Please
help me here as well!
- Made libcurl return error if a transfer is aborted in the middle of a
"chunk". It actually enables libcurl to discover premature transfer aborts
even if the Content-Length: size is unknown.
Daniel (15 March 2001)
- Added --connect-timeout to curl, which sets the new CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT
option in libcurl. It limits the time curl is allowed to spend in the
connection phase. This differs from -m/--max-time that limits the entire
file transfer operation. Requested by Larry Fahnoe and others.
I also updated the curl.1 and curl_easy_setopt.3 man pages and removed the
item from the TODO.
Version 7.7-beta4
Daniel (14 March 2001)
- Made curl grok IPv6 with HTTP proxies and got everything to compile nicely
again when ENABLE_IPV6 is set.
I need to remake things in the test suite. I can't test the FTP parts with
curl built for IPv6 as it uses a different set of FTP commands then!
- I fell onto a bug report on php.net (posted by Lars Torben Wilson) that was
a report meant for our project. Anyway, it said the .netrc parsing didn't
work as supposed, and as I agreed with Lars, I made the netrc parser use
getpwuid() to figure out the home directory of the effective user and try
that netrc. It still uses the environment variable HOME for those that don't
have that function or if the user doesn't return valid pwd info.
- Edin Kadribaic posted a bug report where he got a crash when a fetch with
user+password in the URL followed a Location: to a second URL (absolute,
without name+password). This bug has been around for a long while and
crashes due to a read at address zero. Fixed now. Wrote test case 38, that
tests this.
- Modified the test suite's httpserver slightly to append all client request
data to its log file so that the test script now better can verify a range
of requests and not only the last one, as it did previously.
- Updated the curl man page with --random-file and --egd-file details.
Version 7.7-beta3
Daniel (14 March 2001)
- Björn Stenberg provided similar fixes as Jörn did and some additional patches
for non-SSL compiles.
- I increased the interface number for libcurl as I've removed the low level
functions from the interface. I also took this opportunity to rename the
Curl_strequal function to curl_strequal and Curl_strnequal to
curl_strnequal, as they're public libcurl functions (even if they're still
undocumented).
This will make older programs not capable of using the new libcurl with
just a drop-in replacement.
- Jörn Hartroth updated stuff for win32 compiles:
o config-win32.h was fixed for socklen_t
o lib/ssluse.c had a bad #endif placement
o lib/file.c was made to compile on win32 again
o lib/Makefile.m32 was updated with the new files
o lib/libcurl.def matches the current interface state
Daniel (13 March 2001)
- It only took an hour or so before Jörn Hartroth found a problem in the
chunked transfer-encoding. Given his fine example-site, I could easily spot
the problem and when I re-read the spec (the part I have pasted in the top
of the http_chunks.h file), I realized I had made my state-machine slightly
wrong and didn't expect/handle the trailing CRLF that comes after the data
in each chunk (and those extra two bytes sure feel wasted).
Had to modify test case 34 to match this as well.
Version 7.7-beta2
Daniel (13 March 2001)
- Added the policy stuff to the curl_easy_setopt man page for the two supported
policies.
- Implemented some support for the CURLOPT_CLOSEPOLICY option. The policies
CURLCLOSEPOLICY_LEAST_RECENTLY_USED and CURLCLOSEPOLICY_OLDEST are now
supported, and the "least recently used" is used as default if no policy
is chosen.
Daniel (12 March 2001)
- Added CURLOPT_RANDOM_FILE and CURLOPT_EGDSOCKET to libcurl for seeding the
SSL random engine. The random seeding support was also brought to the curl
client with the new options --random-file <file> and --egd-file <file>. I
need some people to really test this to know they work as supposed. Remember
that libcurl now informs (if verbose is on) if the random seed is considered
weak (HTTPS connections).
- Made the chunked transfer-encoding engine detected bad formatted data length
and return error if so (we can't possibly extract sensible data if this is
the case). Added a test case that detects this. Number 36. Now there are 60
test cases.
- Added 5 new libcurl options to curl/curl.h that can be used to control the
persistant connection support in libcurl. They're also documented (fairly
thoroughly) in the curl_easy_setopt.3 man page. Three of them are now
implemented, although not really tested at this point... Anyway, the new
implemented options are named CURLOPT_MAXCONNECTS, CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT,
CURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE. The ones still left to write code for are:
CURLOPT_CLOSEPOLICY and its related option CURLOPT_CLOSEFUNCTION.
- Made curl (the actual command line tool) use the new libcurl 7.7 persistant
connection support by re-using the same curl handle for every specified file
transfer and after some more test case tweaking we have 100% test case OK.
I made some test cases return HTTP/1.0 now to make sure that works as well.
- Had to add 'Connection: close' to the headers of a bunch of test cases so
that curl behaves "old-style" since the test http server doesn't do multiple
connections... Now I get 100% test case OK.
- The curl.haxx.se site, the main curl mailing list and my personal email are
all dead today due to power blackout in the area where the main servers are
located. Horrible.
- I've made persistance work over a squid HTTP proxy. I find it disturbing
that it uses headers that aren't present in any HTTP standard though
(Proxy-Connection:) and that makes me feel that I'm now on the edge of what
the standard actually defines. I need to get this code excercised on a lot
of different HTTP proxies before I feel safe.
Now I'm facing the problem with my test suite servers (both FTP and HTTP)
not supporting persistant connections and libcurl is doing them now. I have
to fix the test servers to get all the test cases do OK.
Daniel (8 March 2001)
- Guenole Bescon reported that libcurl did output errors to stderr even if
MUTE and NOPROGRESS was set. It turned out to be a bug and happens if
there's an error and no ERRORBUFFER is set. This is now corrected.
Version 7.7-beta1
Daniel (8 March 2001)
- "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" is no longer any trouble for libcurl. I've
added two source files and I've run some test downloads that look fine.
- HTTP HEAD works too, even on 1.1 servers.
Daniel (5 March 2001)
- The current 57 test cases now pass OK. It would suggest that libcurl works
using the old-style with one connection per handle. The test suite doesn't
handle multiple connections yet so there are no test cases for this.
- I patched the telnet.c heavily to not use any global variables anymore. It
should make it a lot nicer library-wise.
- The file:// support was modified slightly to use the internal connect-first-
then-do approach.
Daniel (4 March 2001)
- More bugs erased.
Version 7.7-alpha2
Daniel (4 March 2001)
- Now, there's even a basic check that a re-used connection is still alive
before it is assumed so. A few first tests have proven that libcurl will
then re-connect instead of re-use the dead connection!
Daniel (2 March 2001)
- Now they work intermixed as well. Major coolness!
- More fiddling around, my 'tiny' client I have for testing purposes now has
proved to download both FTP and HTTP with persistant connections. They do
not work intermixed yet though.
Daniel (1 March 2001)
- Wilfredo Sanchez pointed out a minor spelling mistake in a man page and that
curl_slist_append() should take a const char * as second argument. It does
now.
Daniel (22 February 2001)
- The persistant connections start to look good for HTTP. On a subsequent
request, it seems that libcurl now can pick an already existing connection
if a suitable one exists, or it opens a new one.
- Douglas R. Horner mailed me corrections to the curl_formparse() man page
that I applied.
Daniel (20 February 2001)
- Added the docs/examples/win32sockets.c file for our windows friends.
- Linus Nielsen Feltzing provided brand new TELNET functionality and
improvements:
* Negotiation is now passive. Curl does not negotiate until the peer does.
* Possibility to set negotiation options on the command line, currently only
XDISPLOC, TTYPE and NEW_ENVIRON (called NEW_ENV).
* Now sends the USER environment variable if the -u switch is used.
* Use -t to set telnet options (Linus even updated the man page, awesome!)
- Haven't done this big changes to curl for a while. Moved around a lot of
struct fields and stuff to make multiple connections get connection specific
data in separate structs so that they can co-exist in a nice way. See the
mailing lists for discussions around how this is gonna be implemented. Docs
and more will follow.
Studied the HTTP RFC to find out better how persistant connections should
work. Seems cool enough.
Daniel (19 February 2001)
- Bob Schader brought me two files that help set up a MS VC++ libcurl project
easier. He also provided me with an up-to-date libcurl.def file.
- I moved a bunch of prototypes from the public <curl/curl.h> file to the
library private urldata.h. This is because of the upcoming changes. The
low level interface is no longer being planned to become reality.
Daniel (15 February 2001)
- CURLOPT_POST is not required anymore. Just setting the POST string with
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS will switch on the HTTP POST. Most other things in
libcurl already works this way, i.e they require only the parameter to
switch on a feature so I think this works well with the rest. Setting a NULL
string switches off the POST again.
- Excellent suggestions from Rich Gray, Rick Jones, Johan Nilsson and Bjorn
Reese helped me define a way how to incorporate persistant connections into
libcurl in a very smooth way. If done right, no change may have to be made
to older programs and they will just start using persistant connections when
applicable!
Daniel (13 February 2001)
- Changed the word 'timeouted' to 'timed out' in two different error messages.
Suggested by Larry Fahnoe.
Version 7.6.1
Daniel (9 February 2001)
- Frank Reid and Cain Hopwood provided information and research around a HTTPS
PUT/upload problem we seem to have. No solution found yet.
Daniel (8 February 2001)
- An interesting discussion is how to specify an empty password without having
curl ask for it interactively? The current implmentation takes an empty
password as a request for a password prompt. However, I still want to
support a blank user field. Thus, today if you enter "-u :" (without user
and password) curl will prompt for the password. Tricky. How would you
specify you want the prompt otherwise?
- Made the netrc parse result possible to use for other protocols than FTP and
HTTP (such as the upcoming TELNET fixes).
- The previously mentioned "MSVC++ problems" turned out to be a non-issue.
- Added a HTTP file upload code example in the docs/examples/ section on
request.
- Adjusted the FTP response fix slightly.
Version 7.6.1-pre3
Daniel (7 February 2001)
- SM found a flaw in the response reading function for FTP that could make
libcurl not get out of the loop properly when it should, if libcurl got -1
returned when reading the socket.
- I found a similar mistake in http.c when using a proxy and reading the
results from the proxy connection.
Daniel (6 February 2001)
- A friendly person named "SM" (nntp at iname.com) pointed out that the VC
makefile in src/ needed the libpath set for the debug build to work.
- Daniel Gehriger stepped in to assist with the VC++ stuff Robert Weaver
brought up yesterday.
Daniel (5 February 2001)
- Jun-ichiro itojun Hagino brought a big patch that brings IPv6-awareness to
a bunch of different areas within libcurl.
- Robert Weaver told me about the problems the MS VC++ 6.0 compiler has with
the 'static' keyword on a number of libcurl functions. I might need to add a
patch that redefines static when libcurl is compiled with that compiler.
How do I know when VC++ compiles, anyone?
Daniel (4 February 2001)
- curl_getinfo() was extended with two new options:
CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_DOWNLOAD and CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_UPLOAD. They
return the full assumed content length of the transfer in the given
direction. The CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_DOWNLOAD will be the Content-Length:
size of a HTTP download. Added descriptions to the man page as well. This
was done after discussions with Bob Schader.
Daniel (3 February 2001)
- Ingo Ralf Blum provided another fix that makes curl build under the more
recent cygwin installations. It seems they've changed the preset defines to
not include WIN32 anymore.
Version 7.6.1-pre2
Daniel (31 January 2001)
- Curl_read() and curl_read() now return a ssize_t for the size, as it had to
be able to return -1. The telnet support crashed due to this and there was a
possibility to weird behaviour all over. Linus Nielsen Feltzing helped me
find this.
- Added a configure.in check for a working getaddrinfo() if IPv6 is requested.
I also made the configure script feature --enable-debug which sets a couple
of compiler options when used. It assumes gcc.
Daniel (30 January 2001)
- I finally took a stab at the long-term FIXME item I've had on myself, and
now libcurl will properly work when doing a HTTP range-request that follows
a Location:. Previously that would make libcurl fail saying that the server
doesn't seem to support range requests.
Daniel (29 January 2001)
- I added a test case for the HTTP PUT resume thing (test case 33).
Version 7.6.1-pre1
Daniel (29 January 2001)
- Yet another Content-Range change. Ok now? Bob Schader checks from his end
and it works for him.
Daniel (27 January 2001)
- So the HTTP PUT resume fix wasn't good. There should appearantly be a
Content-Range header when resuming a PUT.
- I noticed I broke the download-check that verifies that a resumed HTTP
download is actually resumed. It got broke because my new 'httpreq' field
in the main curl struct. I should get slapped. I added a test case for
this now, so I won't be able to ruin this again without noticing.
- Added a test case for content-length verifying when downloading HTTP.
- Made the progress meter title say if the transfer is being transfered. It
makes the output slightly better for resumes.
- When dealing with Location: and HTTP return codes, libcurl will not attempt
to follow the spirit of RFC2616 better. It means that when POSTing to a
URL that is being following to a second place, the standard will judge on
what to do. All HTTP codes except 303 and 305 will cause curl to make a
second POST operation. 303 will make a GET and 305 is not yet supported.
I also wrote two test cases for this POST/GET/Location stuff.
