$Id: NEWS,v 1.11 2007/01/15 21:19:08 mjt Exp $ User-visible changes in udns library. Recent changes on top. 0.0.9 (16 Jan 2007) - incompat: minor API changes in dns_init() &friends. dns_init() now requires extra `struct dns_ctx *' argument. Not bumped soversion yet - I only expect one "release" with this change, 0.1 will have more changes and will increment so version - many small bugfixes, here and there - more robust FORMERR replies handling - not only such replies are now recognized, but udns retries queries without EDNS0 extensions if tried with, but server reported FORMERR - portability changes, udns now includes getopt() implementation fo the systems lacking it (mostly windows), and dns_ntop()&dns_pton(), which are either just wrappers for system functions or reimplementations. - build is now based on autoconf-like configuration - NAPTR (RFC3403) RR decoding support - new file NOTES which complements TODO somewhat, and includes some important shortcomings - many internal cleanups, including some preparations for better error recovery, security and robustness (and thus API changes) - removed some #defines which are now unused (like DNS_MAXSRCH) - changed WIN32 to WINDOWS everywhere in preprocessor tests, to be able to build it on win64 as well 0.0.8 (12 Sep 2005) - added SRV records (rfc2782) parsing, thanks to Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo for implementation. - bugfixes: o use uninitialized value when no reply, library died with assertion: assert((status < 0 && result == 0) || (status >= 0 && result != 0)). o on some OSes, struct sockaddr_in has additional fields, so memcmp'ing two sockaddresses does not work. - rblcheck(.1) 0.0.7 (20 Apr 2005) - dnsget.1 manpage and several enhancements to dnsget. - allow nameserver names for -n option of dnsget. - API change: all dns_submit*() routines now does not expect last `now' argument, since requests aren't sent immediately anymore. - API change: different application timer callback mechanism. Udns now uses single per-context timer instead of per-query. - don't assume DNS replies only contain backward DN pointers, allow forward pointers too. Change parsing API. - debianize 0.0.6 (08 Apr 2005) - use double sorted list for requests (sorted by deadline). This should significantly speed up timeout processing for large number of requests. - changed debugging interface, so it is finally useable (still not documented). - dnsget routine is now Officially Useable, and sometimes even more useable than `host' from BIND distribution (and sometimes not - dnsget does not have -C option and TCP mode) - Debian packaging in debian/ -- udns is now maintained as a native Debian package. - alot (and I really mean alot) of code cleanups all over.
