1 Changes in libsoup from 2.2.96 to 2.2.97:
3 * Fixed SOAP and XML-RPC code to handle whitespace and
4 comments in the XML better. (Based on a patch from Andrew W.
7 * Fixed lots of typecasting/constness warnings in the code
8 (mostly via a patch from Andrew W. Nosenko)
10 * Fixed build on Cygwin [321827]
12 * Fixed libsoup-2.2.pc fields [343340] and make it get
13 uninstalled correctly [356809]. (Mikhail Zabaluev and
16 * Fixed some small leaks in SoupServer pointed out by Paolo
19 Changes in libsoup from 2.2.95.1 to 2.2.96:
21 * SoupServer now works even if you don't explicitly set an
22 encoding for the response. (In particular, the automatic 404
23 if you request a path with no handlers now works. Problem
24 pointed out by Dennis Jacobfeuerborn.)
26 * WWW-Authenticate and Proxy-Authenticate responses with no
27 realm parameter are now ignored, as per RFC 2617, fixing a
28 crash pointed out by Nate Nielsen.
30 * Added soup_xmlrpc_message_from_string(), from Fernando
33 * simple-httpd and "get" now support HEAD
35 Changes in libsoup from 2.2.94 to 2.2.95.1:
37 * Even more fixes to XML-RPC, found by the new XML-RPC
38 regression test. This includes some API changes that I don't
39 feel guilty about, because the code totally didn't work at
42 * Fixed a bug in soup_mktime_utc()
44 * (2.2.95 was identical to 2.2.95.1. The only difference is
45 that the shared library version was belatedly bumped from
46 8.2.0 to 8.3.0 to reflect the API "additions")
48 Changes in libsoup from 2.2.93 to 2.2.94:
50 * Various fixes to the XML-RPC code (which apparently had not
51 actually ever worked before) from Brent Smith. [343973,
54 * Added client and server API tutorials to the docs
56 * auth-test now uses a local Apache 2.2 install, if possible,
57 rather than depending on files that used to be on an old
58 Ximian web server but haven't been anywhere for a long time.
61 Changes in libsoup from 2.2.92 to 2.2.93:
63 * Fixed outgoing data corruption caused when SoupServer
64 started writing out a response a second time after already
65 having started once. [334469]. Also fixed 342640 and another
66 bug caused by the workaround for 334469 in 2.2.92. Based on
67 patches and analysis from William Jon McCann and Armin
70 * Fixed a deadlock when changing a session's proxy URI.
71 [309867 / bnc 174255, based on a patch by Veerapuram
74 * Fixed https-via-proxies in the synchronous case. [bnc 174255]
76 * Fixed a crash in evolution-exchange [342545, fix based on an
77 analysis by Wang Xin].
79 * Fixed simple-proxy to not crash at startup. Oops. (Alex
82 Changes in libsoup from 2.2.91 to 2.2.92:
84 * Fixed server-side digest auth to return a valid "algorithm"
85 value and client-side to not crash if it sees an invalid one
88 * Fixed the Request-Line parsing code to not hardcode a
89 maximum URI length (to allow very long DAAP requests from
90 iTunes in Rhythmbox). [335040]
92 * Fixed some warnings (signed/unsigned mismatch).
94 Changes in libsoup from 2.2.7 to 2.2.91:
96 * (The large version number bump is because there was an
97 internal 2.2.90 release for SUSE 10.1 alphas, which was
98 supposed to be intermediate between 2.2.7 and 2.4.0. But
99 2.4.0 didn't end up happening, and I don't want to regress
100 the version number at this point.)
102 * SoupSession, SoupServer, SoupConnection, SoupSocket, and
103 SoupAddress now have an "async-context" property that allows
104 you to use the async API in a non-default GMainContext.
105 [Based on patches from Armin Bauer and Jürg Billeter.]
107 * SoupSession, SoupConnection, and SoupSocket now have a
108 "timeout" property to stop synchronous sockets from hanging
109 forever if the remote end is unresponsive (from Varadhan).
111 * Fixed some bugs in soup_date_iso8601_parse(). [324671, from
114 * More Windows build fixes from Tor.
116 Changes in libsoup from 2.2.6.1 to 2.2.7:
118 * Fixed a crash when using NTLM connections [316313, probably
119 also 318252]. (Also 321208, which was a bug introduced in
120 the original fix for 316313.)
122 * Fixed a bug that could cause soup to suck up all available
123 CPU when a connection to a SoupServer was dropped by the
124 other side [319305, patch from Jonathan Matthew]
126 * Fixed the creation of struct elements in XMLRPC messages
127 [321362, patch from Sebastian Bauer]
129 * Plugged a small memory leak in SoupSocket (from Wang Xin).
131 * Fixed two compile problems, a gccism [320349, patch from
132 Roland Illig], and a strict-aliasing warning from gcc 4.1.
134 Changes in libsoup from 2.2.6 to 2.2.6.1:
136 * Fixed a crash when using SoupSoapMessage
138 Changes from 2.2.5 to 2.2.6:
140 * Fixed a crash when canceling a message (from Tambet Ingo)
142 * Fixed a bug where a connection could be leaked forever in
143 some circumstances if a request got a 30x, 401, or 407
144 response, eventually causing a hang when the session hit its
145 maximum connection limit. (Dan/Tambet)
147 * Fixed a memory leak. (Tambet)
149 * Fixed a bug that would sometimes show up when connecting to
150 a server on localhost [#312540]
152 * Added some API to SoupServer and SoupSocket to help fix a
153 long-standing rcd bug.
155 Changes from 2.2.4 to 2.2.5:
157 * Win32 support (from Tor Lillqvist)
159 * Up-to-date API documentation pretty much everywhere
161 * Basic XMLRPC support (from Mariano Suarez-Alvarez, Fernando
162 Herrera, and Jeff Bailey)
164 * New HTTP timestamp-manipulation methods soup_date_parse,
165 soup_date_generate, and soup_date_iso8601_parse.
167 * SoupSession now handles relative URLs in the Location header
168 (in violation of RFC 2616, but in line with how some servers
171 Changes from 2.2.3 to 2.2.4:
173 * Fixed a problem with NTLM authentication against
174 multi-domain servers. [306877]
176 * Fixed DNS lookups on Solaris. [254551, 268389]
178 Changes from 2.2.2 to 2.2.3:
180 * Now compiles against gnutls 1.2.0 [257811]
182 * Fixed a bug that could result in 100% CPU usage if an SSL
183 server closed the connection uncleanly. [273352]
185 Changes from 2.2.1 to 2.2.2:
187 * The SSL validation fix from 2.2.1 [264414] is now completely
188 fixed. (Part of the fix didn't actually make it into 2.2.1)
190 * HTTPS certificate validation now works when using an HTTP
193 * HTTP proxy code deals better with proxies that try to make
194 the user do HTML-form-based authentication. [268531]
196 * 64-bit fixes for NTLM auth code. [270323, from Michael
199 Changes from 2.2.0 to 2.2.1:
201 * Updated for a libgcrypt API change between 1.1.9x and 1.2.x
202 that caused a crash at runtime if you compiled against
205 * SSL certificate validation failure should now always result
206 in a status of SOUP_STATUS_SSL_FAILED, rather than getting
207 turned into SOUP_STATUS_IO_ERROR. [264414]
210 Changes in libsoup from the 2.0 series (1.99.x versions) to 2.2:
212 * Most of the libsoup datatypes are now GObjects. (SoupUri
213 is currently an exception to this.)
215 * SoupMessage now emits signals at various stages of
216 processing. (Eg, "wrote_body", "got_headers".) (You
217 can also still use soup_message_add_*handler().)
219 * SoupContexts are gone; soup_message_new() now takes a URI
222 * All formerly global state is now maintained by the
223 SoupSession object. (This includes the connection pool,
224 proxy server, cached authentication information, SSL
227 * You can create a SoupSessionAsync (for 2.0-like
228 behavior) or SoupSessionSync (for blocking,
231 * You can add SoupMessageFilter objects to a session
232 to have certain processing automatically performed
233 on every message sent via that session. (Eg, setting
236 * NTLM authentication is no longer supported by
237 default. You must enable it by setting the
238 SOUP_SESSION_USE_NTLM flag on the session.
240 * The preferred method of handling authentication is
241 now via the "authenticate" and "reauthenticate"
242 signals on SoupSession. (The old style, of encoding
243 the user and password information into the url is
244 also still supported.)
246 * The SOUP_ERROR_* values are now SOUP_STATUS_* (so that we
247 don't have "SOUP_ERROR_OK" and the like).
249 * SOUP_MESSAGE_IS_ERROR() is gone, since some cases
250 want to include 3xx responses and some don't.
252 * SOUP_ERROR_CANT_AUTHENTICATE and
253 SOUP_ERROR_CANT_AUTHENTICATE_PROXY are now gone,
254 since they didn't carry any information that
255 SOUP_STATUS_UNAUTHORIZED and
256 SOUP_STATUS_PROXY_UNAUTHORIZED don't.
258 * DNS errors now show up as the new status code
259 SOUP_STATUS_CANT_RESOLVE rather than being mixed in
260 with SOUP_ERROR_CANT_CONNECT.
262 * Minimal SOAP support has been added back, via
263 SoupSoapMessage/SoupSoapResponse
265 * The HTTP I/O state machine was completely rewritten, fixing
266 numerous crashes, leaks, and protocol errors.
268 * SoupUri now conforms to RFC 2396. Mostly.
270 * Various test programs have been added under tests/
274 * Support for OpenSSL (which was horribly buggy) and
275 Mozilla NSS (which was never finished). We only
276 support GNUTLS for SSL now.
280 * CGI support in SoupServer
