- Martin Drasar provided the CURLOPT_POSTREDIR patch. It renames CURLOPT_POST301 (but adds a define for backwards compatibility for you who don't define CURL_NO_OLDIES). This option allows you to now also change the libcurl behavior for a HTTP response 302 after a POST to not use GET in the subsequent request (when CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION is enabled). I edited the patch somewhat before commit. The curl tool got a matching --post302 option. Test case 1076 was added to verify this. 2008-09-06 00:13:20 +08:00			`Command line options: 128`
- Igor Novoseltsev added CURLOPT_PROXYUSER and CURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD that then make CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD sort of deprecated. The primary motive for adding these new options is that they have no problems with the colon separator that the CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD option does. 2008-10-17 04:21:22 +08:00			`curl_easy_setopt() options: 158`
- Introducing curl_easy_send() and curl_easy_recv(). They can be used to send and receive data over a connection previously setup with curl_easy_perform() and its CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY option. The sendrecv.c example was added to show how they can be used. 2008-05-13 05:43:24 +08:00			`Public functions in libcurl: 58`
oops, counted one of them twice! 2008-10-08 02:14:11 +08:00			`Known libcurl bindings: 37`

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 17:53:21 +08:00
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 06:56:46 +08:00			`This release includes the following changes:`

HTTP Digest auth fix on a re-used connection 2007-07-22 18:17:52 +08:00			`This release includes the following bugfixes:`

- Lisa Xu pointed out that the ssh.obj file was missing from the lib/Makefile.vc6 file (and thus from the vc8 and vc9 ones too). 2009-01-20 14:24:25 +08:00			`o missing ssh.obj in VS makefiles`
Fixed a couple more locale-dependent toupper conversions, mainly for clarity. This does fix one problem that causes ;type=i FTP URLs to fail in the Turkish locale when CURLOPT_PROXY_TRANSFER_MODE is used (test case 561) Added tests 561 and 1092 through 1094 to test various combinations of ;type= and ;mode= URLs that could potentially fail in the Turkish locale. 2009-01-21 12:42:47 +08:00			`o FTP ;type=i URLs now work with CURLOPT_PROXY_TRANSFER_MODE in Turkish locale`
