An SSL connection to a server 755 with an unknown CA will now fail unless a verification callback is used. 756 - enable SSL session caching (performance improvement) 757 - support for wildcard server certs where commonName is "*.example.com". 758 - thanks to Tommi Komulainen for the contribution of code from mutt's 759 IMAP/SSL implementation under the LGPL, from which bits of this were derived. 760 * Improved SSL client certificate support: 761 - far simpler interface, all done at ne_session.h level. 762 - supports PKCS#12 and PEM-encoded certificates. 763 - optional callback for only providing client when demanded by server. 764 * Support for TLS upgrade is removed, since it isn't useful. 765 * If NEON_SSL is defined, API extensions are available to: 766 - allow access to the SSL_CTX * to adjust session SSL options 767 - retrieve the server certificate (X509 *) 768 * Decompress fixes: 769 - fix potential segfault in ne_decompress_destroy 770 - check the CRC of the deflated output (and fail if it doesn't match) 771 - fail appropriately on truncated responses, and trailing bytes in response. 772 * Added ne_set_read_timeout to use configurable timeout on socket reads. 773 * Malformed response headers will be ignored rather than failing the request. 774 * ne_set_error takes printf-style vararg. 775 * Fixes for ne_get_range and improve error handling. 776 * Functions which append to an ne_buffer do not return a success value, 777 but they do use ne_realloc/ne_malloc under the hood now, so an OOM callback 778 will be used (with the usual caveats). 779 * XML interface does not strip leading whitespace from cdata by default, 780 the NE_XML_STRIPWS flag is available to restore this feature if required. 781 * Upgraded to libtool 1.4.2: 782 - should fix --enable-shared on Mac OS X 10.1 783 * Test suite now contains over one hundred tests. 784 785 Changes in release 0.18.5: 786 * Removed old neon.dsp, neon.dsw. 787 * Update Win32 build to add OpenSSL and zlib support (Branko Èibej). 788 * Fix ne_compress.c to compile on Win32 (Branko Èibej). 789 790 Changes in release 0.18.4: 791 * Fixes for Content-Type parsing using ne_content_type_handler (Greg Stein) 792 - also now parses the charset parameter from header value. 793 * Removed ne_concat() function, which didn't work and wasn't used. 794 795 Changes in release 0.18.3: 796 * Fix parsing lock timeout from server (Arun Garg). 797 * Send Timeout headers in LOCK and refresh LOCK requests (Arun Garg). 798 * Updated neon.mak and config.hw.in for Win32 build (patch from 799 Branko Èibej <brane@xbc.nu>). 800 * Define XML_BYTE_ORDER for bundled expat build in support macro 801 NEON_XML_PARSER(). 802 803 Changes in release 0.18.2: 804 * Fix --with-neon=PATH in support macros. 805 * Support DESTDIR in Makefile install targets (patch by 806 Pawel Golaszewski <blues@blysk.ds.pg.gda.pl>). 807 * Portability fixes: 808 - fix configure check for time_t on some platforms (e.g Solaris 2.6). 809 - remove expect100_works bitfield in ne_session structure (thanks to 810 Yan Periard <yperiard@ems.net>). 811 812 Changes in release 0.18.1: 813 * Minor fix for authentication: "attempt" counter was not reset correctly 814 after authentication failed, so subsequent requests would not authenticate 815 correctly either. 816 * API change: ne_session_destroy returns void (there was no error case). 817 * Portability fixes (non-GCC compilers, 64-bit platforms, UnixWare 7) 818 * Optimisations in string manipulation routines. 819 * config.hw is included in the release tarball again. 820 * Improvements in the autoconf support macros: 821 - check for neon-config in PATH if --with-neon is not given 822 - stop if --with-neon is used, and the check for external neon fails 823 - added NEON_WITHOUT_ACL to prevent build of ne_acl.o 824 825 Changes in release 0.18.0: 826 * API change: authentication callback is passed fixed-size username/password 827 buffers, and an 'attempt' counter. Authentication is retried *forever* 828 until either it succeeds, or the callback returns non-zero. 829 * API clarifications: 830 - ne_propname may have a NULL nspace field, indicating the property has no 831 namespace. This holds for properties returned by the propfind interfaces. 832 - added NE_ELM_PROPS_UNUSED as the lowest element number which should 833 be used with handlers added to the XML parser returned by 834 ne_propfind_get_parser. 835 * Fixes and cleanups of lock discovery interface. 836 * Fix for short write handling in ne_get() (thanks to rado <dzusto@yahoo.com>). 837 * Fix for XML namespace prefix handling where a prefix could be mapped to an 838 incorrect URI (e.g. in PROPFINDs against mod_dav with >10 namespaces used) 839 * Add '--support <feature>' option to neon-config; the script exits with 840 success if given feature is supported. Known features are ssl, dav, zlib. 841 * Support for SSL, DAV, zlib is exported by neon.m4 as shell variable 842 NEON_SUPPORTS_{SSL,DAV,ZLIB}={yes,no} for bundled and external builds. 843 * `neon-config --cflags` won't include -I/usr/include for SSL build. 844 * Fix to call progress callbacks while sending request bodies again. 845 * Test changes: 846 - portability fixes, auth interface and progress tests. 847 848 Changes in release 0.17.2: 849 * Accept Status-Lines with no reason phrase (Jeremy Elson). 850 * Fix handling of persistent connection timeout, and better error 851 handling if sending a request fails. 852 * Fix crashes in locking code. 853 * Return parse error on XML namespace prefix declaration with 854 an empty value. Thanks to Julian Reschke. 855 * Allow passing property names with NULL namespace to ne_proppatch. 856 * Fix for cross-compilation (Mo DeJong). 857 * Moved ne_propname definition from ne_207.h to ne_props.h. 858 * Test changes: 859 - updated for Status-Line parsing changes (Jeremy Elson) 860 - better persistent connection tests 861 - fixed for --disable-webdav build 862 863 Changes in release 0.17.1: 864 * Add support for ACL method (Arun Garg <arung@pspl.co.in>), 865 see ne_acl.h. 866 * Fixes and clean up of libraries exported via `neon-config --libs' 867 * Fix timezone handling when parsing dates (on some platforms). 868 * Upgrade to autoconf 2.52 and libtool 1.4 (thanks to Mo DeJong). 869 * Cleanup/simplification of request dispatching: 870 - better handling of error cases, including fix for a possible 871 infinite loop when the server closes the connection prematurely. 872 * Add '--without-zlib' configure option. 873 * Test changes: 874 - prettify output; imitate Perl test suite output. 875 - add tests for interim 1xx responses, persistent connections, more 876 unbounded operations. 877 878 Changes in release 0.17.0: 879 * Add support for decoding gzip Content-Encoding: see ne_compress.h. 880 - built if zlib is found; `neon-config --cflags' will define NEON_ZLIB if so. 881 * Rewrite hooks interface to register individual callbacks. 882 - inspired by the Apache 2.0/APR hooks interface 883 * Register cookies hooks using ne_cookie_register(). 884 * Clean up configure scripts to enable use of autoconf 2.5x (Mo DeJong). 885 * Use new endianess configure macro to allow cross-compiling (Mo DeJong). 886 * Fix invalid C code in sock_init() in Win32 build (Mo DeJong). 887 * Fix use of signal() on Win32 (Mo DeJong). 888 * Workaround libxml 1.x string handling not being UTF-8. 889 * Test changes: 890 - add tests for decompression interface. 891 892 Changes in release 0.16.1: 893 * Also handle write errors in ne_get_range. 894 * Dump request body blocks in debugging mode. 895 * Fix ne_shave() causing memory corruption when the result should 896 have been the empty string. 897 * Refactor auth header parsing code; more efficient now. 898 - fixes digest auth RFC2617-style broken in 0.16.0 899 900 Changes in release 0.16.0: 901 * API change: ne_copy takes a depth parameter (thanks to Arun Garg, Medha Atre) 902 * API change: validate callback to ne_xml also takes a userdata arg. 903 * Added 'ne_lock_refresh' for performing lock refresh (Arun Garg). 904 * Add SSL support to Win32 build (Peter Boos <PediB@colorfullife.com>) 905 (see INSTALL.win32 for details). Compile with USE_DAV_LOCKS also. 906 * Remove Server header parser for 100-continue support in ne_options. 907 (and remove broken_expect100 from ne_server_capabilities). 908 * Set SIGPIPE disposition to "ignored" in sock_init(). 909 * On platforms with setvbuf(), turn off buffering for the debug log 910 stream. 911 * Ignore repeated calls to sock_init(). 912 * Fixes to error handling in ne_get_range. 913 * Minor improvements to memory handling in auth code. 914 * Fix for start_propstat callback being called with NULL response 915 argument when given invalid XML, causing a segfault in propfind code. 916 * Test changes: 917 - add regression test for the propfind segfault. 918 - handle segfaults better (reap the child, flush the debug log). 919 920 Changes in release 0.15.3: 921 * Fix --with-expat=DIR build. 922 923 Changes in release 0.15.2: 924 * Fix Win32 for XML parser changes (Gerald Richter). 925 * Substitute versions into config.hw at distribution time. 926 * Add date parser for ISO8601-formatted dates as defined by RFC2518, e.g. 927 the creationdate property (Taisuke Yamada <tai@iij.ad.jp>). 928 * Fix Y2K bug in RFC1036 date parsing algorithm. 929 * Test changes: 930 - add tests for date parsing functions. 931 932 Changes in release 0.15.1: 933 * Win32 update from Gerald Richter <richter@ecos.de> 934 - new files neon.mak, INSTALL.win32 935 * Fix for ne_socket.h includes (Mo DeJong). 936 * More improvements for XML parser selection logic: 937 - if parser is required, be sure to fail configure if none is found. 938 - added --with-included-expat for bundled expat logic. 939 * Rename --enable-debugging to --enable-debug (Mo DeJong). 940 - added NEON_DEBUG macro to exported autoconf macros. 941 * Call progress callbacks for request bodies. 942 * Test changes: 943 - check that reading response headers is a bounded operation. 944 - use a pipe between child and parent to avoid race condition and 945 tedious sleep(). 946 947 Changes in release 0.15.0: 948 * Major API renaming to use ne_/NE_ namespace: 949 - http_ to ne_, HTTP_ to NE_, dav_ to ne_, DAV_ to NE_, neon_ to ne_ 950 - hip_xml_ to ne_xml_, HIP_ELM_ to NE_ELM_, HIP_XML_ -> NE_XML_ 951 - sbuffer_ to ne_buffer_ 952 - DEBUG() to NE_DEBUG(), DEBUG_ to NE_DBG_ 953 * Type renames: 954 - http_req to ne_request 955 - sbuffer to 'ne_buffer *' 956 * Note, 'ne_buffer' is not an implicit pointer type, you must 957 specify the '*' now, e.g. 'ne_buffer *buf = ne_buffer_create();'. 958 * ne_buffer is no longer opaque. 959 - ne_buffer_data() removed: use buf->data instead. 960 - ne_buffer_size() is a macro. 961 * Header renames and additions: 962 - http_request.h -> ne_request.h 963 - Session code split into ne_session.h 964 - hip_xml.h -> ne_xml.h, nsocket.h -> ne_socket.h, http_utils.h -> ne_utils.h 965 - neon_md5.h -> ne_md5.h, dav_207.h -> ne_207.h 966 - http_basic.h and dav_basic.h merged into ne_basic.h 967 * New functions: 968 - ne_token and ne_shave, to obsolete split_string, shave_string. 969 * Removed: ne_get_request_headers(). 970 * autoconf changes: 971 - disable building shared neon library by default. 972 - option --enable-libxml is replaced by --with-libxml1 and 973 --with-libxml2 to force use of a particular parser. 974 * Fix auth code to only take MD5 digests of response body blocks when 975 necessary (thanks to Kai Sommerfeld). 976 * Fix alignment bug in MD5 code which could cause SIGBUS on Sparc 977 architectures (Kai Sommerfeld). 978 * Rewrite of request body handling: 979 - ne_set_request_body_fd replaces _stream, using an int fd rather than 980 a FILE *. 981 - added ne_set_request_body_provider to give a callback which is called 982 to provide request body blocks. 983 - removal of 'use_body' hook in favour of 'ne_pull_request_body' function 984 to allow hooks to manually read the request body. 985 - ne_{put,get,post,put_if_unmodified} all take an integer fd rather than a 986 FILE * stream. 987 * Test changes: 988 - added framework for testing "over the wire" (fork a server process) 989 - added tests for response message length handling, chunked responses, 990 header folding, sending request bodies. 991 - start at listing RFC2616 requirements and whether they are met 992 or not in test/STATUS. 993 - test for MD5 alignment bug on Sparc (thanks to Kai Sommerfeld). 994 995 Changes in release 0.14.0: 996 * Add C++ inclusion safety to http_auth.h (Kai Sommerfeld). 997 * Define ssize_t on Win32. (Kai Sommerfeld). 998 * Add C++ inclusion safety to dav_locks.h and ne_alloc.h (thanks to 999 Gregor Bornemann <Gregor.Bornemann@germany.sun.com>). 1000 * Significant API change to properties code, to allow use of allprop 1001 and complex properties: 1002 - dav_propfind_set_complex and _set_flat are removed. 1003 - add parameter to dav_propfind_named to take the list of property names 1004 to be fetched. 1005 - new function dav_propfind_set_private to set private callback. 1006 - all properties not handled by caller are stored as flat properties. 1007 * Untested: add basic SOCKSv5 support: configure --with-socks. 1008 - please report success/failure to neon@webdav.org 1009 * Win32/MSVC build files from Magnus Sirwiö <sirwio@hotmail.com>. 1010 * Fix for expat detection from Shane Mayer <shanemayer42@yahoo.com>. 1011 * Namespace-protect md5 code and more. 1012 - md5_* -> ne_md5_* 1013 - ascii_to_md5 -> ne_ascii_to_md5 (and moved to neon_md5.h) 1014 * Parse authinfo segment in URIs (Johan Lindh <johan@link-Data.com>). 1015 - added 'authinfo' field to struct uri. 1016 * New API: hip_xml_get_attr to retrieve attributes. 1017 * Store language for properties, access with dav_propset_lang. 1018 - only if property is defined on the property element itself. 1019 * Started a simple test suite (test/*). 1020 - includes some simple HTTP server tests. 1021 * Remove "Content-Length: 0" header for request with no body, fixing 1022 interop with Squid 2.3-STABLE1 (thanks to Kai Sommerfeld). 1023 * http_parse_statusline skips leading whitespace. (Johan Lindh). 1024 * Partial fix for timezone/date parsing problems. 1025 1026 Changes in release 0.13.0: 1027 * Fix ne_strndup allocating one byte less than it should (Kai Sommerfeld) 1028 - if you use uri_parse, this bug may have caused subtle memory corruption 1029 in your application. 1030 * Revert API changes in 0.12: property values are not UTF-8 encoded/decoded 1031 internally. (thanks to Greg Stein) 1032 * Add another optional argument to NEON_BUNDLED macros, actions to 1033 be run if bundled build is *not* selected. 1034 * API change: added argument to http_add_hooks to register cleanup function 1035 for the cookie. 1036 * Removed dav_lock_unregister in favour of automatic cleanup when session 1037 is destroyed. 1038 * Fixed leaks in redirect code (Kai Sommerfeld). 1039 * Fixed crashes in hip_xml_destroy (Kai Sommerfeld). 1040 * Redirects to a different hostname/port/scheme are never followed: the request 1041 will fail with HTTP_REDIRECT instead. Redirect notification callback is 1042 only called for *followed* redirects. 1043 New API: http_redirect_location() for retrieving location of last redirect. 1044 * Authentication is now implemented as a hook, independently of http_request.c: 1045 - API change: removed 'hostname' argument from auth callbacks. 1046 - API change: you must now include http_auth.h from your application. 1047 - Also fixes case of using server and proxy authentication simultaneously 1048 * Added 'http_forget_auth' to clear authentication session. 1049 * New API: http_session_hook_private for retrieving private per-session cookie 1050 for hooks. 1051 * API change: http_set_request_body_stream has a return error value. 1052 * API change: http_set_request_body_buffer now takes the buffer length too. 1053 * New API: caller-pulls interface for reading response body: 1054 http_begin_request, http_end_request, http_read_response_block. 1055 An alternative to using the (much simpler) http_request_dispatch. 1056 * Make --disable-webdav build work. 1057 * New API: dav_propnames for retrieving property names. 1058 * New API: dav_propfind_get_request to access request object of handler. 1059 * API change: progress and connection status callbacks implemented at 1060 http_request.h level. Socket-level status callbacks removed, progress 1061 callbacks made per-socket. 1062 * Supports new expat (Sam TH <sam@uchicago.edu>) 1063 * Supports libxml2 (in preference to libxml1). 1064 * API change: added namespace protection to base64 and dates functions: 1065 all have ne_ prefix now. 1066 * Fixed ranged GETs where a specific range is requested (Johan Lindh 1067 <johan@linkdata.se>). 1068 * Limit number of response header fields to 100. 1069 * Allow requests for the '*' URI even if a proxy server is in use. 1070 * libxml: Get useful error messages for parse errors. 1071 1072 Changes in release 0.12.0: 1073 * Portability fixes to http_request.c and http_auth.c. 1074 - fixes digest auth on big-endian architectures. 1075 * Fix warnings from stray tokens after #endif's in uri.h and string_utils.h. 1076 * Add C++ inclusion safety to http_redirect.h (Kai Sommerfeld 1077 <kai.sommerfeld@germany.sun.com>). 1078 * Make redirects to a different host work (Kai Sommerfeld). 1079 * Fix reading response bodies when non-chunked and no Content-Length 1080 (Kai Sommerfeld). 1081 * API change: 'http_add_hooks takes a 'const' request object. 1082 * Fixed memory leaks in session hooks (thanks to Kai Sommerfeld). 1083 * Fix passing NULL props argument to dav_simple_propfind, to support 1084 allprop requests. 1085 **** MAJOR INTERFACE CHANGE **** 1086 - URIs passed to http_request_create() are NOT escaped by neon. You 1087 MUST do this yourself to remain HTTP compliant, using e.g. 1088 uri_abspath_escape. (Kai Sommerfeld) 1089 * Added --disable-webdav flag to configure, to disable DAV support in 1090 the library. This allows building neon without an XML parser. 1091 * Corresponding NEON_WITHOUT_WEBDAV macro for use in bundled builds. 1092 * Fix Makefile dependancies. 1093 * A bundled neon directory builds or doesn't build automatically 1094 (i.e. you recurse into it unconditionally). 1095 * API clarification: 1096 - dav_propset_status may return NULL if the server does not return 1097 a response for the given property (issue is open for debate). 1098 * API change up for debate: 1099 - Property values to dav_proppatch are UTF-8 encoded internally. 1100 - Property values in dav_propfind_* are UTF-8 decoded internally. 1101 * API additions: ne_realloc, ne_utf8_encode. 1102 1103 Changes in release 0.11.0: 1104 * Added SSL client certificate support with 'sock_set_client_cert'. 1105 - Supports certs in PEM-encoded files. 1106 - Specify a callback for prompting the user for the password with 1107 sock_set_key_prompt. 1108 * Added 'ne_oom_callback', to register a callback which is used if 1109 malloc() returns NULL. (Mike Rosellini <m@icopyright.com>) 1110 * Register appropriate callback with libxml to handle <![CDATA blocks 1111 as normal character data (fixes PROPFINDs against sharemation.com). 1112 * Added 'NEON_REQUIRE' macro to declare that you require a neon library 1113 of a given minimum version, e.g. NEON_REQUIRE(0,10) means "I need 1114 neon 0.11 or later". The _BUNDLED macros will fall back on the bundled 1115 copy if an external library is found which is not of a new enough version. 1116 * Added neon_version_minimum() function call for run-time version detection. 1117 * neon_config.h has been removed. 1118 * Use closesocket() to close sockets on Win32 (Markus Fleck <fleck@isoc.de>). 1119 1120 Changes in release 0.10.1: 1121 * Default expect-100 to OFF. 1122 1123 Changes in release 0.10.0: 1124 * hip_xml API changes: 1125 - The search for a handler for a new child element begins at the 1126 handler of the parent element, and carries on up the stack. 1127 (previously, it always started from the base of the stack) 1128 - Documentation written: doc/parsing-xml.txt 1129 * Remove memory leaks and tidy debugging output in new properties code. 1130 * API changes to DAV locking interface: 1131 - New function: dav_lock_copy to copy a lock object. 1132 - Re-ordered arguments to callback of dav_lock_discover, and made the 1133 lock object passed back const. 1134 - Fix leaks and crashes due to vague interface definitions. 1135 * API change to dav_propfind_set_complex: use a callback to return the 1136 'private' structure. 1137 * NEON_NORMAL_BUILD and NEON_LIBTOOL_BUILD macros defined for setting 1138 up neon's Makefile in a bundled build: see macros/neon.m4. 1139 * NEON_VPATH_BUNDLED macro added which takes separate srcdir and 1140 builddir arguments for supporting VPATH builds (thanks to Peter Moulder 1141 <pjm@bofh.asn.au>). 1142 * Added optional final argument to NEON_(VPATH_)BUNDLED, which gives 1143 a set of actions to be run if the bundled build is chosen. 1144 * NEON_SSL checks for OpenSSL in /usr too. 1145 * API change: when using http_session_decide_proxy, it MUST be called 1146 before using http_session_server to prevent the DNS lookup on the origin 1147 server being optimised out. The real scheme in use is passed to the 1148 callback now. 1149 * New function, dav_207_ignore_unknown, to ignore any unknown XML fragments 1150 in the 207 response. Used by properties layer. 1151 1152 Changes in release 0.9.2: 1153 * Fix using both dav_propfind_set_complex and dav_propfind_set_flat with the 1154 same propfind_handler. 1155 1156 Changes in release 0.9.1: 1157 * dav_propfind interface 1158 - Guarantee that the 'private' structure will be initialized to zero on 1159 creation. 1160 - Make it the *callers* responsibility to free() the private structure. 1161 * Fix a few arguments/variables which mirrored globally declared symbols. 1162 1163 Changes in release 0.9.0: 1164 * Removed old dav_propfind_* interface, replaced with a better, more 1165 powerful, and easier to use interface: 1166 - 'dav_simple_propfind' interface for just fetching "flat" (byte-string) 1167 properties. 1168 - 'dav_propfind_*' interface for fetching flat and/or "complex" (structured 1169 XML) properties. 1170 - Lets you retrieve the 'status' information, to see what happened if 1171 fetching the property failed (e.g 404 Not Found). 1172 * Fixes to doc/using-neon.txt (thanks to Greg Stein). 1173 * Allow building when srcdir != builddir (Mo DeJong <mdejong@cygnus.com>) 1174 1175 Changes in release 0.8.1: 1176 * Fix segfault in PROPFIND code. 1177 1178 Changes in release 0.8.0: 1179 * Fix for using COPY/MOVE over SSL (thanks to David Sloat). 1180 * Fix for using a proxy server and SSL. 1181 * Added 'http_get_scheme' API call. 1182 * Added 'http_redirect.h' to list of installed headers (thanks to everyone ;). 1183 * Changes for building on Windows (Peter Boos <PediB@colorfullife.com>) 1184 * Fixes for building on BeOS (Sam TH <sam@uchicago.edu> and David Reid 1185 <dreid@jetnet.co.uk>). 1186 * Add buffering to socket code for pre-BONE BeOS systems (David Reid). 1187 * Interface changes for hip_xml: 1188 - Renamed hip_xml_add_(mixed_)handler to hip_xml_push_(mixed_)handler 1189 - Documentation updates. 1190 - Added HIP_ELM_UNUSED for lowest element id which should be used. 1191 *** MAJOR INTERFACE CHANGE *** 1192 - Removed 'http_status *' pointer from http_request_dispatch. 1193 - Added http_get_status(req) to retrieve the response-status information 1194 instead. You don't have to declare an http_status object yourself now. 1195 * Similarly, added DAV_ELM_207_UNUSED for lowest element id which should 1196 be used by users of dav_207_* code (incl. use of dav_propfind_* 1197 code). 1198 * New NEON_* autoconf macro interface: 1199 - Use NEON_BUNDLED if sources are bundled, otherwise NEON_LIBRARY. 1200 - The NEON_XML_PARSER macro is NOT called automatically. You must 1201 call this yourself if using NEON_BUNDLED; see doc/using-neon.txt 1202 for details. 1203 * Fix use of 'socket' in nsocket.h function prototypes (Greg Stein). 1204 * Remove extra backslash at line 69 of src/Makefile.incl (Dirk Bergstrom). 1205 * Examples directory is now a separate package. 1206 1207 Changes in release 0.7.7: 1208 * Another fix for linking against a libtool-built expat (Greg Stein). 1209 1210 Changes in release 0.7.6: 1211 * Better check for closed SSL connection after doing SSL_peek.

Support automatic redirects in 'nget'. 1258 * Add --with-extra-includes and --with-extra-libs configure parameters 1259 to point configure at 1260 1261 Changes in release 0.5.1: 1262 * Prevent segfault if USE_DAV_LOCKS is defined, and a locking session 1263 is not registered (thanks to David Sloat). 1264 1265 Changes in release 0.5.0: 1266 * Rename xmalloc, xstrdup etc to ne_malloc, ne_strdup etc. 1267 * Some speed optimisation in response-header reading. 1268 * Use 'off_t' rather than 'size_t' in sock_progress callback, 1269 sock_readfile_blocked, and sock_transfer. 1270 1271 Changes in release 0.4.2: 1272 * Fix for sending request bodies after getting 100-continue response. 1273 1274 Changes in release 0.4.1: 1275 * Fix nget build. 1276 1277 Changes in release 0.4.0: 1278 * Install library headers into .../include/neon not .../include/libneon 1279 * Install all necessary library headers. 1280 * Compile support for WebDAV locking throughout the library 1281 * Rename md5.h to neon_md5.h (avoids conflict with md5.h in OpenSSL) 1282 * Rename socket.h to nsocket.h (avoids possible conflict with C library) 1283 * Update licensing notice on macros/neon*.m4: note that these files are 1284 NOT under the LGPL, and can be used in other packages regardless of 1285 the license the package uses. 1286 * Update NEON_LIBRARY m4 function to allow optional specification of 1287 names of bundled neon/expat source directories. 1288 * Increase socket read timeout to 60 seconds. 1289 * Added an POST method: from Sander Alberink <sander.alberink@cmg.nl>. 1290 * Added 'http_get_request_headers' to return the sbuffer containing 1291 all request headers. 1292 * Allow passing NULL as name to http_add_response_header_handler: 1293 the handler callback is passed the entire header string, of ALL 1294 response headers. 1295 1296 Changes in release 0.3.1: 1297 * Compile fix for dav_locks.c (thanks to Paul D'Anna) 1298 1299 Changes in release 0.3.0: 1300 * Rewrite of socket handling layer. All sock_* functions changed. 1301 * Added basic SSL support: --with-ssl (requires OpenSSL). 1302 NOTE: Certificates are NOT presented for verification. 1303 * 'nget' accepts URL's using the 'https' scheme. 1304 * New example program, 'nserver', to display the Server: string, 1305 e.g. 'nserver https://www.eu.c2.net/' 1306 * Fixed request re-send when persistent connection times out. 1307 * "Hooks" support: allow external hooks into the HTTP request/ 1308 response dispatch loop. 1309 * New printf-style interface for adding request headers. 1310 * Make symbols used in header files C++-safe (Tom Bednarz). 1311 * WebDAV locking support: lock discovery, LOCK (exclusive/shared) 1312 UNLOCK. "If:" headers are sent as appropriate. Simple interface 1313 for implementors of new methods to indicate which locks are 1314 required for the method. 1315 * Primitive HTTP cookies support. 1316 * Primitive hack at a GNOME-based GUI example program "nbrowse". 1317 Enable build with --enable-gnome-examples. It crashes, and 1318 not much else. Requires GNOME and POSIX threads. Example usage: 1319 'nbrowse dav.ics.uci.edu /msdav/' 1320 Many thanks to Lee Mallabone for Gtk help, and showing how to 1321 use Gtk and threads. 1322 1323 Changes in release 0.2.0: 1324 * Use libtool: new configure options to select whether to build 1325 shared and/or static libraries. Should build shared libraries 1326 portably now. 1327 * Complete rewrite of the hip_xml interface to use opaque pointers. 1328 New functions: hip_xml_create, hip_xml_destroy: create parser. 1329 hip_xml_{set,get}_error: Access to error string. 1330 hip_xml_add_handler: Register callbacks for a set of elements. 1331 hip_xml_valid: Returns whether the parse was valid or not. 1332 Removed functions: hip_xml_init, hip_xml_finish. 1333 * Removed functions made reduntant by above changes in dav_207. 1334 * Don't include config.h in header files 1335 * Fix PROPFIND allprop request body (Michael Sobolev) 1336 * Added C++ safety macros around header files. 1337 * Added neon-config script for getting correct CFLAGS and LIBS 1338 values for using libneon in applications. 1339 1340 Changes in release 0.1.1: 1341 * Fix for short writes in GET 1342 1343 Changes in release 0.1.0: 1344 * Initial release.
