Available command line options: 109
Bradford Bruce made the windows resolver code properly return CURLE_COULDNT_RESOLVE_PROXY and CURLE_COULDNT_RESOLVE_HOST on resolving errors (as documented).
2005-10-22 03:21:19 +08:00
Available curl_easy_setopt() options: 125
with all external functions marked with CURL_EXTERN it is easy to count them and... yes, they are 46!
2004-11-09 22:42:04 +08:00
Number of public functions in libcurl: 46
Added CURLOPT_LOCALPORT and CURLOPT_LOCALPORTRANGE to libcurl. Set with the curl tool with --local-port. Plain and simply set the range of ports to bind the local end of connections to. Implemented on to popular demand. Not extensively tested. Please let me know how it works.

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
2003-09-23 05:38:52 +08:00
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.
2005-07-13 02:15:34 +08:00
Added CURLOPT_LOCALPORT and CURLOPT_LOCALPORTRANGE to libcurl. Set with the curl tool with --local-port. Plain and simply set the range of ports to bind the local end of connections to. Implemented on to popular demand. Not extensively tested. Please let me know how it works.
2006-01-30 16:24:07 +08:00
o CURLOPT_LOCALPORT and CURLOPT_LOCALPORTRANGE (--local-port) added
o Dropped support for the LPRT ftp command
David Shaw finally removed all traces of Gopher and we are now officially not supporting it. It hasn't been functioning for years anyway, so this is just finally stating what already was true. And a cleanup at the same time.
2006-01-17 06:14:37 +08:00
o Gopher is now officially abandoned as a protocol (lib)curl tries to support.
Bryan Henderson turned the 'initialized' variable for curl_global_init() into a counter, and thus you can now do multiple curl_global_init() and you are then supposed to do the same amount of calls to curl_global_cleanup(). Bryan also updated the docs accordingly.
2006-01-16 07:55:53 +08:00
o curl_global_init() and curl_global_cleanup() are now using a refcount so
that it is now legal to call them multiple times. See updated info for
details.
working draft of the upcoming 7.10.8 release notes
2003-09-23 05:38:52 +08:00
This release includes the following bugfixes:
Kent Boortz improved the configure check for GnuTLS to properly set LIBS instead of LDFLAGS.
2006-02-11 20:56:52 +08:00
o improved GnuTLS check in configure
Philippe Vaucher provided a brilliant piece of test code that show a problem with re-used FTP connections. If the second request on the same connection was set not to fetch a "body", libcurl could get confused and consider it an attempt to use a dead connection and would go acting mighty strange.
2006-02-08 07:09:04 +08:00
o re-used FTP connections when the second request didn't do a transfer
fixed --limit-rate
2006-02-02 07:28:22 +08:00
o plain --limit-rate [num] means bytes
Based on an error report by Philippe Vaucher, we no longer count a retried connection setup as a follow-redirect. It turns out 1) this fails when a FTP connection is re-setup and 2) it does make the max-redirs counter behave wrong. This fix was not verified since the reporter vanished, but I believe this is the right fix nonetheless.
2006-01-30 16:20:52 +08:00
o re-creating a dead connection is no longer counted internally as a followed
redirect and thus prevents a weird error that would occur if a FTP
connection died on an attempted re-use
Michal Marek provided a patch for FTP that makes libcurl continue to try PASV even after EPSV returned a positive response code, if libcurl failed to connect to the port number the EPSV response said. Obviously some people are going through protocol-sensitive firewalls (or similar) that don't understand EPSV and then they don't allow the second connection unless PASV was used. This also called for a minor fix of test case 238.
2006-01-24 22:40:43 +08:00
o Try PASV after failing to connect to the port the EPSV response contained
Added CURLOPT_LOCALPORT and CURLOPT_LOCALPORTRANGE to libcurl. Set with the curl tool with --local-port. Plain and simply set the range of ports to bind the local end of connections to. Implemented on to popular demand. Not extensively tested. Please let me know how it works.
2006-01-30 16:24:07 +08:00
o -P [IP] with non-local address with ipv6-enabled curl
Jon Turner pointed out that doing -P [hostname] with curl (built ipv4-only) didn't work.
2006-01-20 06:02:46 +08:00
o -P [hostname] with ipv6-disabled curl
reality sync
2006-01-18 20:17:20 +08:00
o libcurl.m4 was updated
configure no longer warns on "missing" if the current path contains a space
2006-01-18 18:00:36 +08:00
o configure no longer warns if the current path contains a space
Andrew Benham fixed a race condition in the test suite that could cause the test script to kill all processes in the current process group!
2006-01-13 20:16:16 +08:00
o test suite kill race condition
Fixed FTP_SKIP_PASV_IP and FTP_USE_EPSV to "do right" when used on FTP thru HTTP proxy.
2006-01-13 06:18:38 +08:00
o FTP_SKIP_PASV_IP and FTP_USE_EPSV when doing FTP over HTTP proxy
When using a bad path over FTP, as in when libcurl couldn't CWD into all given subdirs, libcurl would still "remember" the full path as if it is the current directory libcurl is in so that the next curl_easy_perform() would get really confused if it tried the same path again - as it would not issue any CWD commands at all, assuming it is already in the "proper" dir. Starting now, a failed CWD command sets a flag that prevents the path to be "remembered" after returning.
2006-01-11 07:03:22 +08:00
o Doing a second request with FTP on the same bath path, would make libcurl
confuse what current working directory it had
Mike Jean fixed so that the second CONNECT when doing FTP over a HTTP proxy actually used a new connection and not sent the second request on the first socket!
2006-01-08 06:24:16 +08:00
o FTP over HTTP proxy now sends the second CONNECT properly
not much recent stuff, but still I had this modified locally
2006-01-04 18:04:23 +08:00
o numerous compiler warnings and build quirks for various compilers have
been addressed
Jean Jacques Drouin pointed out that you could only have a user name or password of 127 bytes or less embedded in a URL, where actually the code uses a 255 byte buffer for it! Modified now to use the full buffer size.
2005-12-16 22:52:16 +08:00
o supports name and passwords up to 255 bytes long, embedded in URLs
o the HTTP_ONLY define disables the TFTP support

advice from friends like these:
