1219 * Fixed a memory leak in gpgme_data_release_and_get_mem.
1221 * Fixed a bug in Windows command line quoting.
1224 Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.2 (2006-03-02)
1225 ------------------------------------------------
1227 * Fixed a bug in the W32 glib backend.
1230 Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.1 (2006-02-23)
1231 ------------------------------------------------
1233 * Fixed a bug in that the fingerprints of subkeys are not available.
1235 * Clarified usage of the SECRET flag in key listings. It is now
1236 reset for stub keys.
1238 * Reading signature notations and policy URLs on key signatures is
1239 supported. They can be found in the new field notations of the
1240 gpgme_key_sig_t structure. This has to be enabled with the keylist
1241 mode flag GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_SIG_NOTATIONS.
1243 * A new gpgme_free() function solves the problem of using different
1244 allocators in a single program. This function should now be used
1245 instead calling free() to release the buffer returned by
1246 gpgme_data_release_and_get_mem. It is recommended that you always
1247 do this, but it is only necessary on certain platforms, so backwards
1248 compatibility is provided. In other words: If free() worked for
1249 you before, it will keep working.
1251 * New status codes GPGME_PKA_TRUST_GOOD and GPGME_PKA_TRUST_BAD.
1252 They are analyzed by the verify handlers and made available in the
1253 new PKA_TRUST and PKA_ADDRESS fields of the signature result structure.
1255 * Interface changes relative to the 1.1.0 release:
1256 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1257 gpgme_key_sig_t EXTENDED: New field notations.
1258 GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_SIG_NOTATIONS NEW
1260 GPGME_STATUS_PKA_TRUST_BAD NEW
1261 GPGME_STATUS_PKA_TRUST_GOOD NEW
1262 gpgme_signature_t EXTENDED: New field pka_trust.
1263 gpgme_signature_t EXTENDED: New field pka_address.
1264 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1267 Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.0 (2005-10-01)
1268 ------------------------------------------------
1270 * You can now configure the backend engine file name and home
1271 directory to be used, as default and per context.
1273 * Information about the recipients of an encrypted text is now
1274 available at decryption time.
1276 * New status GPGME_STATUS_PLAINTEXT. This is analyzed by the decrypt
1277 and verify handlers, the information about the plaintext filename,
1278 if available is made available in the new field file_name of the
1279 respective result structure.
1281 * The code for "automagically detecting the thread library" has been
1282 removed from libgpgme. It is deprecated since version 0.4.3.
1283 Since then, you had to link against libgpgme-pthread for
1284 applications using pthread and libgpgme-pth for applications using
1287 The code was removed because it caused compilation problems on
1288 systems where the pthread.h header from GNU Pth is available in
1289 addition to the system header (FreeBSD 6 and later for example).
1291 * "./autogen.sh --build-w32" does now build gpgme.dll.
1293 * [W32] The environment variable GPGME_DEBUG now uses a semicolon as
1294 delimiter. The standard install directory is used when locating
1295 gpg or gpgsm before finally falling back to the hardwired name.
1297 * There is a new flag for keys and subkeys, is_qualified, which
1298 indicates if a key can be used for qualified signatures according
1299 to local government regulations.
1301 * You can associate a filename with a data object using the new
1302 function gpgme_data_set_file_name(). This filename will be stored
1303 in the output when encrypting or signing the data and will be
1304 returned when decrypting or verifying the output data.
1306 * You can now set notation data at signature creation with the new
1307 function gpgme_sig_notation_add().
1309 * Interface changes relative to the 1.0.3 release:
1310 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1311 gpgme_set_engine_info NEW
1312 gpgme_ctx_get_engine_info NEW
1313 gpgme_ctx_set_engine_info NEW
1314 gpgme_recipient_t NEW
1315 gpgme_decrypt_result_t EXTENDED: New field recipients.
1316 gpgme_verify_result_t EXTENDED: New fields pubkey_algo, hash_algo.
1317 gpgme_decrypt_result_t EXTENDED: New field plaintext_filename.
1318 gpgme_verify_result_t EXTENDED: New field plaintext_filename.
1319 GPGME_STATUS_PLAINTEXT NEW
1320 gpgme_key_t EXTENDED: New field is_qualified.
1321 gpgme_subkey_t EXTENDED: New field is_qualified.
1322 gpgme_data_get_file_name NEW
1323 gpgme_data_set_file_name NEW
1324 gpgme_sig_notation_flags_t NEW
1325 GPGME_SIG_NOTATION_HUMAN_READABLE NEW
1326 GPGME_SIG_NOTATAION_CRITICAL NEW
1327 gpgme_sig_notation_clear NEW
1328 gpgme_sig_notation_add NEW
1329 gpgme_sig_notation_get NEW
1330 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1333 Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.3 (2005-06-20)
1334 ------------------------------------------------
1336 * Previousy, GPGME would use a default "include certs" of 1. This
1337 has been changed. Now GPGME will use the crypto backend engines
1338 default unless you set the value with gpgme_set_include_certs()
1339 explicitly. A new macro GPGME_INCLUDE_CERTS_DEFAULT can be used
1340 as a value to explicitly request the new default behaviour.
1342 Because the default changes, this is a slight change of the API
1343 semantics. We consider it to be a bug fix.
1345 * A bug which made GPGME hang has been fixed. If you have
1346 experienced hanging before, please try out this version and let me
1347 know if you still experience hanging problems.
1349 * Interface changes relative to the 0.9.0 release:
1350 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1351 gpgme_set_include_certs CHANGED DEFAULT
1352 GPGME_INCLUDE_CERTS_DEFAULT NEW
1353 GPGME_STATUS_SIG_SUBPACKET NEW
1354 GPGME_STATUS_NEED_PASSPHRASE_PIN NEW
1355 GPGME_STATUS_SC_OP_FAILURE NEW
1356 GPGME_STATUS_SC_OP_SUCCESS NEW
1357 GPGME_STATUS_CARDCTRL NEW
1358 GPGME_STATUS_BACKUP_KEY_CREATED NEW
1359 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1362 Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.2 (2004-12-28)
1363 ------------------------------------------------
1365 * Changed the license of the library to the GNU Lesser General Public
1366 License (LGPL), version 2.1 or later.
1369 Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.1 (2004-10-22)
1370 ------------------------------------------------
1375 Noteworthy changes in version 1.0.0 (2004-09-30)
1376 ------------------------------------------------
1378 * Version 1.0.0! We are proud to present you with a thoroughly
1379 tested and stable version of the GPGME library. A big Thank You!
1380 to all the people who made this possible.
1382 The development will be branched into a stable 1.x.y series and the
1385 * The gpgme.m4 macro supports checking the API version. Just prepend
1386 it to the required version string, separated by a colon. For
1387 example, this release has the version "1:1.0.0". The last release
1388 to which this version is (mostly) ABI compatible is "1:0.4.2",
1389 which is the default required version.
1392 Noteworthy changes in version 0.9.0 (2004-06-08)
1393 ------------------------------------------------
1395 * The type gpgme_key_t has now a new field keylist_mode that contains
1396 the keylist mode that was active at the time the key was retrieved.
1398 * The type gpgme_decrypt_result_t has a new field "wrong_key_usage"
1399 that contains a flag indicating that the key should not have been
1400 used for encryption.
1402 * Verifying a signature of a revoked key gives the correct result now
1403 (GPG_ERR_CERT_REVOKED error code).
1405 * Clarified that the error code GPG_ERR_NO_DATA from the decrypt &
1406 verify operations still allows you to look at the signature
1407 verification result.
1409 * Clarified that patterns in keylisting operations have an upper
1410 limit, and thus are not suited to list many keys at once by their
1411 fingerprint. Also improve the error message if the pattern is too
1412 long for the CMS protocol to handle.
1414 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1415 gpgme_key_t EXTENDED: New field keylist_mode.
1416 gpgme_decrypt_result_t EXTENDED: New field wrong_key_usage.
1417 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1420 Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.7 (2004-04-29)
1421 ------------------------------------------------
1423 * Correctly initialize the fields expired, revoked, invalid, and
1424 disabled in the gpgme_key_t structures.
1426 * A bug fix: The flag wrong_key_usage of gpgme_signature_t was
1427 accidentally of type int instead unsigned int.
1429 * Interface changes relative to the 0.4.5 release:
1430 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1431 gpgme_signature_t CHANGED: wrong_key_usage is unsigned int now.
1432 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1434 Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.6 (2004-04-06)
1435 ------------------------------------------------
1440 Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.5 (2004-03-07)
1441 ------------------------------------------------
1443 * GPGME is now compiled with LFS (large file support) by default.
1444 This means that _all_ programs using GPGME must be compiled with
1445 LFS support enabled by default. You can do this easily with
1446 autoconf, by using the AC_SYS_LARGEFILE macro. Or you can do this
1447 without autoconf by defining the preprocessor symbol
1448 _FILE_OFFSET_BITS to 64 (by passing the -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 to
1449 the C compiler command line, or by defining this preprocessor
1450 symbol before including any system header files). For more
1451 details, read the section on LFS in the manual.
1453 Up to now, it was undocumented that GPGME was not using LFS.
1454 But the public interfaces use off_t, and file descriptors are
1455 exchanged between the application and GPGME. This was an oversight,
1456 and bound to cause troubles in the future.
1458 Writing GPGME as a dual mode library that seamlessly supports LFS
1459 while keeping backwards compatibility is possible, but does not
1460 solve the problem: Many applications already expect GPGME to have
1461 LFS (they are compiled with off_t being a 64bit value). This is true
1462 in particular for the popular Gtk+ and Qt programs.
1464 So, although this is an ABI (but not an API) break, we will not
1465 change the library version to reflect that. Because the interfaces
1466 affected are probably not used yet in any GPGME 0.4 based
1467 application, we don't expect any real failures from this change.
1468 In fact, applications already using LFS will have some subtle bugs
1471 However, if you encounter an application using GPGME 0.4.x that
1472 does _not_ use LFS by default (off_t is a 32bit value), _and_
1473 uses at least one of the functions gpgme_data_seek,
1474 gpgme_data_new_from_filepart, or a gpgme_data_seek_cb_t with
1475 gpgme_data_new_from_cbs, then indeed this library will be ABI
1476 incompatible with the program. As said above, we don't believe
1477 such a program exists. If we are in error, then you have two
1478 options: As a quick hack, you can configure GPGME with the
1479 --disable-largefile option. This will revert the change, and GPGME
1480 will not use LFS. However, GPGME will be incompatible with
1481 programs that expect GPGME to use LFS. All applications are
1482 required to use LFS when using GPGME, so this is only good as a
1483 temporary local work-around.
1485 The other option is to change the versioning of the library and
1486 recompile all applications. We have reserved a special version of
1487 the library for that, so you can do that without expecting a
1488 version clash in the future. Furthermore, everyone who does this
1489 will agree on the version to use (this is important for
1490 distribution makers). Read the comment in configure.ac (before
1491 LIBGPGME_LT_AGE) if you want to do this. Please don't do this
1492 blindly: As stated above, we think it is unlikely this measure is
1493 needed. Still, it is there if necessary. If in doubt, contact us
1494 and we will give our advise for your specific situation.
1496 * New key listing mode GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_VALIDATE for validation of
1499 * New interface gpgme_cancel() that can be used to cancel
1500 asynchronous operations.
1502 * Interface changes relative to the 0.4.4 release:
1503 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1504 gpgme_data_seek_cb_t CHANGED: off_t is now a largefile type.
1505 gpgme_data_seek CHANGED: off_t is now a largefile type.
1506 gpgme_data_new_from_filepart CHANGED: off_t is now a largefile type.
1507 GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_VALIDATE NEW
1509 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1511 Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.4 (2004-01-12)
1512 ------------------------------------------------
1514 * The member "class" in gpgme_key_sig_t and gpgme_new_signature_t has
1515 been renamed to "sig_class", to avoid clash with C++ compilers. In
1516 the C API, the old name "class" has been preserved for backwards
1517 compatibility, but is deprecated.
1519 * Interface changes relative to the 0.4.3 release:
1520 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1521 gpgme_key_sig_t CHANGED: class deprecated, use new sig_class.
1522 gpgme_new_signature_t CHANGED: class deprecated, use new sig_class.
1523 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1525 Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.3 (2003-10-06)
1526 ------------------------------------------------
1528 * libgpgme should not be used for threaded programs anymore. This
1529 never worked reliably in all cases, because you had to
1530 be careful about the linking order and libtool wouldn't do that for
1531 you automatically. Instead, now you have to link against
1532 libgpgme-pthread for applications using pthread and libgpgme-pth for
1533 applications using GNU Pth.
1535 The old code for automagically detecting the thread library is
1536 still part of libgpgme, but it is DEPRECATED.
1538 * There are new automake macros AM_PATH_GPGME_PTH and
1539 AM_PATH_GPGME_PTHREAD, which support checking for thread-enabled
1540 versions of GPGME. They define GPGME_PTH_CFLAGS, GPGME_PTH_LIBS,
1541 GPGME_PTHREAD_CFLAGS and GPGME_PTHREAD_LIBS respectively. These
1542 variables of course also include the configuration for the thread
1543 package itself. Alternatively, use libtool.
1545 * gpgme_strerror_r as a thread safe variant of gpgme_strerror was
1548 * gpgme-config doesn't support setting the prefix or exec prefix
1549 anymore. I don't think it ever worked correctly, and it seems to
1552 * gpgme_get_key fails with GPG_ERR_AMBIGUOUS_NAME if the key ID
1553 provided was not unique, instead returning the first matching key.
1555 * gpgme_key_t and gpgme_subkey_t have a new field, can_authenticate,
1556 that indicates if the key can be used for authentication.
1558 * gpgme_signature_t's status field is now correctly set to an error
1559 with error code GPG_ERR_NO_PUBKEY if public key is not found.
1561 * gpgme_new_signature_t's class field is now an unsigned int, rather
1562 than an unsigned long (the old class field is preserved for
1563 backwards compatibility).
1565 * A new function gpgme_set_locale() is provided to allow configuring
1566 the locale for the crypto backend. This is necessary for text
1567 terminals so that programs like the pinentry can be started with
1568 the right locale settings for the terminal the application is running
1569 on, in case the terminal has different settings than the system
1570 default (for example, if it is a remote terminal). You are highly
1571 recommended to call the following functions directly after
1572 gpgme_check_version:
1576 setlocale (LC_ALL, "");
1577 gpgme_set_locale (NULL, LC_CTYPE, setlocale (LC_CTYPE, NULL));
1578 gpgme_set_locale (NULL, LC_MESSAGES, setlocale (LC_MESSAGES, NULL));
1580 GPGME can not do this for you, as setlocale is not thread safe, and
1581 there is no alternative.
1583 * The signal action for SIGPIPE is now set to SIG_IGN by
1584 gpgme_check_version, instead the first time a crypto engine is
1585 started (which is not well defined).
1587 * In the output of gpgme_hash_algo_name, change RMD160 to RIPEMD160,
1588 TIGER to TIGER192, CRC32-RFC1510 to CRC32RFC1510, and CRC24-RFC2440
1589 to CRC24RFC2440. For now, these strings can be used as the MIC
1590 parameter for PGP/MIME (if appropriately modified).
1592 * Interface changes relative to the 0.4.2 release:
1593 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1594 gpgme_strerror_t NEW
1595 gpgme_get_key CHANGED: Fails correctly if key ID not unique.
1596 gpgme_key_t EXTENDED: New field can_authenticate.
1597 gpgme_subkey_t EXTENDED: New field can_authenticate.
1598 gpgme_new_signature_t CHANGED: New type for class field.
1599 gpgme_set_locale NEW
1600 gpgme_hash_algo_name CHANGED: Slight adjustment of algo names.
1601 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1603 Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.2 (2003-07-30)
1604 ------------------------------------------------
1606 * Allow gpg-error to be in non-standard place when linking the test suite.
1608 * Configure will fail now if gpg-error can not be found.
1610 * Fixed initialized memory backed data objects for writing, which
1611 caused the test program to crash (but only on Mac OS, surprisingly).
1613 * Eliminate use of C99 constructs.
1615 * Small improvements to the manual.
1618 Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.1 (2003-06-06)
1619 ------------------------------------------------
1621 This is the release that 0.4.0 should have been. There are many
1622 interface changes, please see below for the details. The changes are
1623 sometimes the result of new functionality, but more often express a
1624 paradigm shift. Others are an overdue cleanup to get GPGME in line
1625 with the GNU coding standards and to make the interface more
1626 self-consistent. Here is an overview on the changes:
1628 All types have been renamed to conform to the GNU coding standards,
1629 most of the time by keeping the whole name in lowercase and inserting
1630 underscores between words.
1632 All operations consistently only accept input parameters in their
1633 invocation function, and return only an error code directly. Further
1634 information about the result of the operation has to be retrieved
1635 afterwards by calling one of the result functions. This unifies the
1636 synchronous and the asynchronous interface.
1638 The error values have been completely replaced by a more
1639 sophisticated model that allows GPGME to transparently and accurately
1640 report all errors from the other GnuPG components, regardless of
1641 process boundaries. This is achieved by using the library
1642 libgpg-errors, which is shared by all GnuPG components. This library
1643 is now required for GPGME.
1645 The results of all operations are now provided by pointers to C
1646 structs rather than by XML structs or in other ways.
1648 Objects which used to be opaque (for example a key) are now pointers
1649 to accessible structs, so no accessor functions are necessary.
1651 Backward compatibility is provided where it was possible without too
1652 much effort and did not collide with the overall sanitization effort.
1653 However, this is only for ease of transition. NO DEPRECATED FUNCTION
1654 OR DATA TYPE IS CONSIDERED A PART OF THE API OR ABI AND WILL BE
1655 DROPPED IN THE FUTURE WITHOUT CHANGING THE SONAME OF THE LIBRARY.
1656 Recommendations how to replace deprecated or removed functionality
1657 can be found within the description of each change.
1659 What follows are all changes to the interface and behaviour of GPGME
1662 * If gpgme.h is included in sources compiled by GCC 3.1 or later,
1663 deprecated attributes will warn about use of obsolete functions and
1664 type definitions. You can suppress these warnings by passing
1665 -Wno-deprecated-declarations to the gcc command.
1667 * The following types have been renamed. The old types are still
1668 available as aliases, but they are deprecated now:
1670 GpgmeCtx gpgme_ctx_t
1671 GpgmeData gpgme_data_t
1672 GpgmeError gpgme_error_t
1673 GpgmeDataEncoding gpgme_data_encoding_t
1674 GpgmeSigStat gpgme_sig_stat_t
1675 GpgmeSigMode gpgme_sig_mode_t
1676 GpgmeAttr gpgme_attr_t
1677 GpgmeValidity gpgme_validity_t
1678 GpgmeProtocol gpgme_protocol_t
1679 GpgmeKey gpgme_key_t
1680 GpgmePassphraseCb gpgme_passphrase_cb_t
1681 GpgmeProgressCb gpgme_progress_cb_t
1682 GpgmeIOCb gpgme_io_cb_t
1683 GpgmeRegisterIOCb gpgme_register_io_cb_t
1684 GpgmeRemoveIOCb gpgme_remove_io_cb_t
1685 GpgmeEventIO gpgme_event_io_t
1686 GpgmeEventIOCb gpgme_event_io_cb_t
1687 GpgmeIOCbs gpgme_io_cbs
1688 GpgmeDataReadCb gpgme_data_read_cb_t
1689 GpgmeDataWriteCb gpgme_data_write_cb_t
1690 GpgmeDataSeekCb gpgme_data_seek_cb_t
1691 GpgmeDataReleaseCb gpgme_data_release_cb_t
1692 GpgmeDataCbs gpgme_data_cbs_t
1693 GpgmeTrustItem gpgme_trust_item_t
1694 GpgmeStatusCode gpgme_status_code_t
1696 * gpgme_error_t is now identical to gpg_error_t, the error type
1697 provided by libgpg-error. More about using libgpg-error with GPGME
1698 can be found in the manual. All error symbols have been removed!
1700 * All functions and types in libgpg-error have been wrapped in GPGME.
1701 The new types are gpgme_err_code_t and gpgme_err_source_t. The new
1702 functions are gpgme_err_code, gpgme_err_source, gpgme_error,
1703 gpgme_err_make, gpgme_error_from_errno, gpgme_err_make_from_errno,
1704 gpgme_err_code_from_errno, gpgme_err_code_to_errno,
1707 * GPGME_ATTR_IS_SECRET is not anymore representable as a string.
1709 * GnuPG 1.2.2 is required. The progress callback is now also invoked
1710 for encrypt, sign, encrypt-sign, decrypt, verify, and
1711 decrypt-verify operations. For verify operations on detached
1712 signatures, the progress callback is invoked for both the detached
1713 signature and the plaintext message, though.
1715 * gpgme_passphrase_cb_t has been changed to not provide a complete
1716 description, but the UID hint, passphrase info and a flag
1717 indicating if this is a repeated attempt individually, so the user
1718 can compose his own description from this information.
1720 The passphrase is not returned as a C string, but must be written
1721 to a file descriptor directly. This allows for secure passphrase
1724 The return type has been changed to gpgme_error_t value. This
1725 allowed to remove the gpgme_cancel function; just return
1726 the error code GPG_ERR_CANCELED in the passphrase callback directly.
1728 * gpgme_edit_cb_t has been changed to take a file descriptor argument.
1729 The user is expected to write the response to the file descriptor,
1730 followed by a newline.
1732 * The recipients interface has been removed. Instead, you use
1733 NULL-terminated lists of keys for specifying the recipients of an
1734 encryption operation. Use the new encryption flag
1735 GPGME_ENCRYPT_ALWAYS_TRUST if you want to override the validity of
1736 the keys (but note that in general this is not a good idea).
1738 This change has been made to the prototypes of gpgme_op_encrypt,
1739 gpgme_op_encrypt_start, gpgme_op_encrypt_sign and
1740 gpgme_op_encrypt_sign_start.
1742 The export interface has been changed to use pattern strings like
1743 the keylist interface. Thus, new functions gpgme_op_export_ext and
1744 gpgme_op_export_ext_start have been added as well. Now the
1745 prototypes of gpgme_op_export_start and gpgme_op_export finally
1748 * gpgme_op_verify and gpgme_op_decrypt_verify don't return a status
1749 summary anymore. Use gpgme_get_sig_status to retrieve the individual
1752 * gpgme_io_cb_t changed from a void function to a function returning
1753 a gpgme_error_t value. However, it will always return 0, so you
1754 can safely ignore the return value.
1756 * A new I/O callback event GPGME_EVENT_START has been added. The new
1757 requirement is that you must wait until this event until you are
1758 allowed to call the I/O callback handlers previously registered for
1759 this context operation. Calling I/O callback functions for this
1760 context operation before the start event happened is unsafe because
1761 it can lead to race conditions in a multi-threaded environment.
1763 * The idle function feature has been removed. It was not precisely
1764 defined in a multi-threaded environment and is obsoleted by the
1765 user I/O callback functions. If you still need a simple way to
1766 call something while waiting on one or multiple asynchronous
1767 operations to complete, don't set the HANG flag in gpgme_wait (note
1768 that this will return to your program more often than the idle
1771 * gpgme_wait can return NULL even if hang is true, if an error
1772 occurs. In that case *status contains the error code.
1774 * gpgme_get_engine_info was radically changed. Instead an XML
1775 string, an info structure of the new type gpgme_engine_info_t is
1776 returned. This makes it easier and more robust to evaluate the
1777 information in an application.
1779 * The new function gpgme_get_protocol_name can be used to convert a
1780 gpgme_protocol_t value into a string.
1782 * The status of a context operation is not checked anymore. Starting
1783 a new operation will silently cancel the previous one. Calling a
1784 function that requires you to have started an operation before without
1785 doing so is undefined.
1787 * The FPR argument to gpgme_op_genkey was removed. Instead, use the
1788 gpgme_op_genkey_result function to retrieve a gpgme_genkey_result_t
1789 pointer to a structure which contains the fingerprint. This also
1790 works with gpgme_op_genkey_start. The structure also provides
1791 other information about the generated keys.
1796 err = gpgme_op_genkey (ctx, NULL, NULL, &fpr);
1798 printf ("%s\n", fpr);
1802 gpgme_genkey_result_t result;
1803 err = gpgme_op_genkey (ctx, NULL, NULL);
1806 result = gpgme_op_genkey_result (ctx);
1808 printf ("%s\n", result->fpr);
1811 * The new gpgme_op_import_result function provides detailed
1812 information about the result of an import operation in
1813 gpgme_import_result_t and gpgme_import_status_t objects.
1814 Thus, the gpgme_op_import_ext variant is deprecated.
1816 * The new gpgme_op_sign_result function provides detailed information
1817 about the result of a signing operation in gpgme_sign_result_t,
1818 gpgme_invalid_key_t and gpgme_new_signature_t objects.
1820 * The new gpgme_op_encrypt_result function provides detailed
1821 information about the result of an encryption operation in
1822 a GpgmeEncryptResult object.
1824 * The new gpgme_op_decrypt_result function provides detailed
1825 information about the result of a decryption operation in
1826 a GpgmeDecryptResult object.
1828 * The new gpgme_op_verify_result function provides detailed
1829 information about the result of an verify operation in
1830 a GpgmeVerifyResult object. Because of this, the GPGME_SIG_STAT_*
1831 values, gpgme_get_sig_status, gpgme_get_sig_ulong_attr,
1832 gpgme_get_sig_string_attr and gpgme_get_sig_key are now deprecated,
1833 and gpgme_get_notation is removed.
1835 * GpgmeTrustItem objects have now directly accessible data, so the
1836 gpgme_trust_item_get_string_attr and gpgme_trust_item_get_ulong_attr
1837 accessor functions are deprecated. Also, reference counting is
1838 available through gpgme_trust_item_ref and gpgme_trust_item_unref
1839 (the gpgme_trust_item_release alias for the latter is deprecated).
1841 * Keys are not cached internally anymore, so the force_update argument
1842 to gpgme_get_key has been removed.
1844 * GpgmeKey objects have now directly accessible data so the
1845 gpgme_key_get_string_attr, gpgme_key_get_ulong_attr,
1846 gpgme_key_sig_get_string_attr and gpgme_key_sig_get_ulong_attr
1847 functions are deprecated. Also, gpgme_key_release is now
1848 deprecated. The gpgme_key_get_as_xml function has been dropped.
1850 * Because all interfaces using attributes are deprecated, the
1851 GpgmeAttr data type is also deprecated.
1853 * The new gpgme_op_keylist_result function provides detailed
1854 information about the result of a key listing operation in
1855 a GpgmeKeyListResult object.
1857 * Now that each function comes with its own result retrieval
1858 interface, the generic gpgme_get_op_info interface is not useful
1859 anymore and dropped.
1861 * The type and mode of data objects is not available anymore.
1863 * Interface changes relative to the 0.4.0 release:

2084 * Fixed some bux with key listings.
2086 * The development has been branched to clean up some API issues.
2087 This 0.3 series will be kept for compatibility reasons; so do don't

2098 * Setting the signing keys for the CMS protocol does now work.
2100 * The signers setting is honoured by gpgme_op_edit.
2102 Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.9 (2002-08-21)
2103 ------------------------------------------------
2105 * A spec file for creating RPMs has been added.
2107 * An experimental interface to GnuPG's --edit-key functionality is
2108 introduced, see gpgme_op_edit.
2110 * The new gpgme_import_ext function provides a convenient access to
2111 the number of processed keys.
2113 * Interface changes relative to the 0.3.8 release:
2114 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2117 gpgme_op_edit_start NEW
2119 gpgme_op_import_ext NEW
2120 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2142 ------------------------------------------------
2144 * GPGME_ATTR_OTRUST is implemented now.
2146 * A first step toward thread safeness has been achieved, see the
2147 documentation for details. Supported thread libraries are pthread
2150 Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.6 (2002-05-03)
2151 ------------------------------------------------
2153 * All error output of the gpgsm backend is send to the bit bucket.
2155 * The signature verification functions are extended. Instead of
2156 always returning GPGME_SIG_STATUS_GOOD, the functions new codes for
2157 expired signatures. 2 new functions may be used to retrieve more
2158 detailed information like the signature expiration time and a
2159 validity information of the key without an extra key looking.
2161 * The current passphrase callback and progress meter callback can be
2162 retrieved with the new functions gpgme_get_passphrase_cb and
2163 gpgme_get_progress_cb respectively.
2165 * Interface changes relative to the 0.3.5 release:

2181 Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.5 (2002-04-01)
2182 ------------------------------------------------
2184 * gpgme_op_encrypt can be called with RECIPIENTS being 0. In this
2185 case, symmetric encryption is performed. Note that this requires a
2186 passphrase from the user.
2188 * More information is returned for X.509 certificates.
2190 * Interface changes relative to the 0.3.4 release:
2191 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2192 gpgme_op_encrypt EXTENDED: Symmetric encryption possible
2193 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2195 Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.4 (2002-03-04)
2196 ------------------------------------------------
2198 * gpgme_op_encrypt does now fail with GPGME_Invalid_Recipients if
2199 some recipients have been invalid, whereas earlier versions
2200 succeeded in this case. The plaintext is still encrypted for all valid
2201 recipients, so the application might take this error as a hint that
2202 the ciphertext is not usable for all requested recipients.
2203 Information about invalid recipients is available with gpgme_get_op_info.
2205 * gpgme_op_verify now allows to pass an uninitialized data object as
2206 its plaintext argument to check for normal and cleartext
2207 signatures. The plaintext is then returned in the data object.
2209 * New interfaces gpgme_set_include_certs and gpgme_get_include_certs
2210 to set and get the number of certifications to include in S/MIME
2213 * New interfaces gpgme_op_encrypt_sign and gpgme_op_encrypt_sign_start
2214 to encrypt and sign a message in a combined operation.
2216 * New interface gpgme_op_keylist_ext_start to search for multiple patterns.
2218 * gpgme_key_get_ulong_attr supports the GPGME_ATTR_EXPIRE attribute.
2220 * Interface changes relative to the 0.3.3 release:
2221 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2222 gpgme_op_encrypt CHANGED: Can fail with GPGME_Invalid_Recipients
2223 gpgme_op_verify EXTENDED: Accepts uninitialized text argument
2224 gpgme_key_get_ulong_attr EXTENDED: Supports GPGME_ATTR_EXPIRE

2230 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2232 Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.3 (2002-02-12)
2233 ------------------------------------------------
2235 * Fix the Makefile in jnlib.
2237 * Fix the test suite (hopefully). It should clean up all its state
2238 with `make check' now.
2241 Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.2 (2002-02-10)
2242 ------------------------------------------------
2244 * Remove erroneous dependency on libgcrypt in jnlib.
2247 Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.1 (2002-02-09)
2248 ------------------------------------------------
2250 * There is a Texinfo manual documenting the API.
2252 * The gpgme_set_keylist_mode function returns an error, and changed
2253 its meaning. It is no longer usable to select between normal and
2254 fast mode (newer versions of GnuPG will always be fast), but
2255 selects between local keyring, remote keyserver, or both.
2256 For this, two new macros are defined, GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_LOCAL
2257 and GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_EXTERN. To make it possible to modify the
2258 current setting, a function gpgme_get_keylist_mode was added to
2259 retrieve the current mode.
2261 * gpgme_wait accepts a new argument STATUS to return the error status
2262 of the operation on the context. Its definition is closer to
2263 waitpid() now than before.
2265 * The LENGTH argument to gpgme_data_new_from_filepart changed its
2266 type from off_t to the unsigned size_t.
2268 * The R_HD argument to the GpgmePassphraseCb type changed its type
2269 from void* to void**.
2271 * New interface gpgme_op_trustlist_end() to match
2272 gpgme_op_keylist_end().
2274 * The CryptPlug modules have been renamed to gpgme-openpgp and
2275 gpgme-smime, and they are installed in pkglibdir by `make install'.
2277 * An idle function can be registered with gpgme_register_idle().
2279 * The GpgSM backend supports key generation with gpgme_op_genkey().
2281 * Interface changes relative to the 0.3.0 release:
2282 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2283 gpgme_data_new_from_filepart CHANGED: Type of LENGTH is size_t.
2284 GpgmePassphraseCb CHANGED: Type of R_HD is void **.
2285 gpgme_wait CHANGED: New argument STATUS.
2286 gpgme_set_keylist_mode CHANGED: Type of return value is GpgmeError.
2287 The function has a new meaning!
2288 gpgme_get_keylist_mode NEW
2289 GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_LOCAL NEW
2290 GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_EXTERN NEW
2291 gpgme_op_trustlist_next NEW
2293 gpgme_register_idle NEW
2294 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2296 Noteworthy changes in version 0.3.0 (2001-12-19)
2297 ------------------------------------------------
2299 * New interface gpgme_set_protocol() to set the protocol and thus the
2300 crypto engine to be used by the context. Currently, the OpenPGP
2301 and the CMS protocols are supported. They are specified by the new
2302 preprocessor symbols GPGME_PROTOCOL_OpenPGP and GPGME_PROTOCOL_CMS.
2303 A new context uses the OpenPGP engine by default.
2305 * gpgme_get_engine_info() returns information for all crypto engines
2306 compiled into the library. The XML format has changed. To
2307 reliably get the version of a crypto engine, the <version> tag
2308 after the appropriate <protocol> tag has to be looked for.
2310 * New interface gpgme_engine_check_version(), obsoleting
2311 gpgme_check_engine(). Check the version of all engines you are
2312 supporting in your software.
2314 * GpgmeKey lists the user ids in the order as they are returned by
2315 GnuPG, first the primary key with index 0, then the sub-user ids.
2317 * New operation gpgme_op_decrypt_verify() to decrypt and verify
2318 signatures simultaneously.
2320 * The new interface gpgme_op_keylist_end() terminates a pending
2321 keylist operation. A keylist operation is also terminated when
2322 gpgme_op_keylist_next() returns GPGME_EOF.
2324 * GPGME can be compiled without GnuPG being installed (`--with-gpg=PATH'),
2325 cross-compiled, or even compiled without support for GnuPG
2328 * GPGME can be compiled with support for GpgSM (GnuPG for S/MIME,
2329 `--with-gpgsm=PATH'). It is enabled by default if the `gpgsm' is found
2330 in the path, but it can also be compiled without support for GpgSM
2331 (`--without-gpgsm').
2333 * CryptPlug modules for GPGME are included and can be enabled at
2334 configure time (`--enable-gpgmeplug'). There is one module which
2335 uses the GnuPG engine (`gpgmeplug') and one module which uses the
2336 GpgSM engine (`gpgsmplug').
2338 * Interface changes relative to the latest 0.2.x release:
2339 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2340 gpgme_key_get_as_xml CHANGED: Sub-user ids reversed in order.
2341 gpgme_key_get_string_attr CHANGED: User ids reversed in order.
2342 gpgme_key_get_ulong_attr CHANGED: User ids reversed in order.
2343 gpgme_get_engine_info CHANGED: New format, extended content.
2344 gpgme_engine_check_version NEW
2345 gpgme_decrypt_verify_start NEW
2346 gpgme_decrypt_verify NEW
2347 gpgme_op_keylist_next NEW
2348 gpgme_set_protocol NEW
2349 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2352 Noteworthy changes in version 0.2.3 (2001-09-17)
2353 ------------------------------------------------
2355 * New function gpgme_get_op_info which can be used to get the micalg
2356 parameter needed for MOSS.
2358 * New functions gpgme_get_armor and gpgme_get_textmode.
2360 * The usual bug fixes and some minor functionality improvements.
2362 * Added a simple encryption component for MS-Windows; however the
2363 build procedure might have some problems.
2366 Noteworthy changes in version 0.2.2 (2001-06-12)
2367 ------------------------------------------------
2369 * Implemented a key cache.
2371 * Fixed a race condition under W32 and some other bug fixes.
2374 Noteworthy changes in version 0.2.1 (2001-04-02)
2375 ------------------------------------------------
2377 * Changed debug output and GPGME_DEBUG variable (gpgme/debug.c)
2379 * Handle GnuPG's new key capabilities output and support revocation
2382 * Made the W32 support more robust.
