Changelog --------- (development since 1.1....) User api additions ------------------ - lws_get_library_version() returns a const char * with a string like "1.1 9e7f737", representing the library version from configure.ac and the git HEAD hash the library was built from User api changes ---------------- - libwebsocket_create_context() has changed from taking a ton of parameters to just taking a pointer to a struct containing the parameters. The struct lws_context_creation_info is in libwebsockets.h, the members are in the same order as when they were parameters to the call previously. The test apps are all updated accordingly so you can see example code there. - Header tokens are now deleted after the websocket connection is established. Not just the header data is saved, but the pointer and length array is also removed from (union) scope saving several hundred bytes per connection once it is established - struct libwebsocket_protocols has a new member rx_buffer_size, this controls rx buffer size per connection of that protocol now. Sources for apps built against older versions of the library won't declare this in their protocols, defaulting it to 0. Zero buffer is legal, it causes a default buffer to be allocated (currently 4096) If you want to receive only atomic frames in your user callback, you should set this to greater than your largest frame size. If a frame comes that exceeds that, no error occurs but the callback happens as soon as the buffer limit is reached, and again if it is reached again or the frame completes. You can detect that has happened by seeing there is still frame content pending using libwebsockets_remaining_packet_payload() By correctly setting this, you can save a lot of memory when your protocol has small frames (see the test server and client sources). User api removals ----------------- The configuration-time option MAX_USER_RX_BUFFER has been replaced by a buffer size chosen per-protocol. For compatibility, there's a default of 4096 rx buffer, but user code should set the appropriate size for the protocol frames. New features ------------ - Cmake project file added, aimed initially at Windows support: this replaces the visual studio project files that were in the tree until now. - PATH_MAX or MAX_PATH no longer needed - cutomizable frame rx buffer size by protocol v1.1-chrome26-firefox18 ======================= Diffstat -------- Makefile.am | 4 + README-test-server | 291 --- README.build | 239 ++ README.coding | 138 ++ README.rst | 72 - README.test-apps | 272 +++ configure.ac | 116 +- lib/Makefile.am | 55 +- lib/base64-decode.c | 5 +- lib/client-handshake.c | 121 +- lib/client-parser.c | 394 ++++ lib/client.c | 807 +++++++ lib/daemonize.c | 212 ++ lib/extension-deflate-frame.c | 132 +- lib/extension-deflate-stream.c | 12 +- lib/extension-x-google-mux.c | 1223 ---------- lib/extension-x-google-mux.h | 96 - lib/extension.c | 8 - lib/getifaddrs.c | 271 +++ lib/getifaddrs.h | 76 + lib/handshake.c | 582 +---- lib/libwebsockets.c | 2493 ++++++--------------- lib/libwebsockets.h | 115 +- lib/md5.c | 217 -- lib/minilex.c | 440 ++++ lib/output.c | 628 ++++++ lib/parsers.c | 2016 +++++------------ lib/private-libwebsockets.h | 284 +-- lib/server-handshake.c | 275 +++ lib/server.c | 377 ++++ libwebsockets-api-doc.html | 300 +-- m4/ignore-me | 2 + test-server/Makefile.am | 111 +- test-server/libwebsockets.org-logo.png | Bin 0 -> 7029 bytes test-server/test-client.c | 45 +- test-server/test-echo.c | 330 +++ test-server/test-fraggle.c | 20 +- test-server/test-ping.c | 22 +- test-server/test-server-extpoll.c | 554 ----- test-server/test-server.c | 349 ++- test-server/test.html | 3 +- win32port/zlib/ZLib.vcxproj | 749 ++++--- win32port/zlib/ZLib.vcxproj.filters | 188 +- win32port/zlib/adler32.c | 348 ++- win32port/zlib/compress.c | 160 +- win32port/zlib/crc32.c | 867 ++++---- win32port/zlib/crc32.h | 882 ++++---- win32port/zlib/deflate.c | 3799 +++++++++++++++----------------- win32port/zlib/deflate.h | 688 +++--- win32port/zlib/gzclose.c | 50 +- win32port/zlib/gzguts.h | 325 ++- win32port/zlib/gzlib.c | 1157 +++++----- win32port/zlib/gzread.c | 1242 ++++++----- win32port/zlib/gzwrite.c | 1096 +++++---- win32port/zlib/infback.c | 1272 ++++++----- win32port/zlib/inffast.c | 680 +++--- win32port/zlib/inffast.h | 22 +- win32port/zlib/inffixed.h | 188 +- win32port/zlib/inflate.c | 2976 +++++++++++++------------ win32port/zlib/inflate.h | 244 +- win32port/zlib/inftrees.c | 636 +++--- win32port/zlib/inftrees.h | 124 +- win32port/zlib/trees.c | 2468 +++++++++++---------- win32port/zlib/trees.h | 256 +-- win32port/zlib/uncompr.c | 118 +- win32port/zlib/zconf.h | 934 ++++---- win32port/zlib/zlib.h | 3357 ++++++++++++++-------------- win32port/zlib/zutil.c | 642 +++--- win32port/zlib/zutil.h | 526 ++--- 69 files changed, 19556 insertions(+), 20145 deletions(-) user api changes ---------------- - libwebsockets_serve_http_file() now takes a context as first argument - libwebsockets_get_peer_addresses() now takes a context and wsi as first two arguments user api additions ------------------ - lwsl_...() logging apis, default to stderr but retargetable by user code; may be used also by user code - lws_set_log_level() set which logging apis are able to emit (defaults to notice, warn, err severities), optionally set the emit callback - lwsl_emit_syslog() helper callback emits to syslog - lws_daemonize() helper code that forks the app into a headless daemon properly, maintains a lock file with pid in suitable for sysvinit etc to control lifecycle - LWS_CALLBACK_HTTP_FILE_COMPLETION callback added since http file transfer is now asynchronous (see test server code) - lws_frame_is_binary() from a wsi pointer, let you know if the received data was sent in BINARY mode user api removals ----------------- - libwebsockets_fork_service_loop() - no longer supported (had intractable problems) arrange your code to act from the user callback instead from same process context as the service loop - libwebsockets_broadcast() - use libwebsocket_callback_on_writable[_all_protocol]() instead from same process context as the service loop. See the test apps for examples. - x-google-mux() removed until someone wants it - pre -v13 (ancient) protocol support removed New features ------------ - echo test server and client compatible with echo.websocket.org added - many new configure options (see README.build) to reduce footprint of the library to what you actually need, eg, --without-client and --without-server - http + websocket server can build to as little as 12K .text for ARM - no more MAX_CLIENTS limitation; adapts to support the max number of fds allowed to the process by ulimit, defaults to 1024 on Fedora and Ubuntu. Use ulimit to control this without needing to configure the library. Code here is smaller and faster. - adaptive ratio of listen socket to connection socket service allows good behaviour under Apache ab test load. Tested with thousands of simultaneous connections - reduction in per-connection memory footprint by moving to a union to hold mutually-exclusive state for the connection - robustness: Out of Memory taken care of for all allocation code now - internal getifaddrs option if your toolchain lacks it (some uclibc) - configurable memory limit for deflate operations - improvements in SSL code nonblocking operation, possible hang solved, some SSL operations broken down into pollable states so there is no library blocking, timeout coverage for SSL_connect - extpoll test server merged into single test server source - robustness: library should deal with all recoverable socket conditions - rx flowcontrol for backpressure notification fixed and implmeneted correctly in the test server - optimal lexical parser added for header processing; all headers in a single 276-byte state table - latency tracking api added (configure --with-latency) - Improved in-tree documentation, REAME.build, README.coding, README.test-apps, changelog - Many small fixes v1.0-chrome25-firefox17 (6cd1ea9b005933f)
