1Changes in current version: 2 o allow \r or \n individually to separate HTTP headers instead of the standard "\r\n"; from Charles Kerr. 3 o demote most http warnings to debug messages 4 o Fix Solaris compilation; from Magne Mahre 5 o Add a "Date" header to HTTP responses, as required by HTTP 1.1. 6 o Support specifying the local address of an evhttp_connection using set_local_address 7 o Fix a memory leak in which failed HTTP connections whould not free the request object 8 o Make adding of array members in event_rpcgen more efficient, but doubling memory allocation 9 o Fix a memory leak in the DNS server 10 o Fix compilation when DNS_USE_OPENSSL_FOR_ID is enabled 11 o Fix buffer size and string generation in evdns_resolve_reverse_ipv6(). 12 o Respond to nonstandard DNS queries with "NOTIMPL" rather than by ignoring them. 13 o In DNS responses, the CD flag should be preserved, not the TC flag. 14 o Fix http.c to compile properly with USE_DEBUG; from Christopher Layne 15 o Handle NULL timeouts correctly on Solaris; from Trond Norbye 16 o Recalculate pending events properly when reallocating event array on Solaris; from Trond Norbye 17 o Add Doxygen documentation to header files; from Mark Heily 18 o Add a evdns_set_transaction_id_fn() function to override the default 19 transaction ID generation code. 20 o Add an evutil module (with header evutil.h) to implement our standard cross-platform hacks, on the theory that somebody else would like to use them too. 21 o Fix signals implementation on windows. 22 o Fix http module on windows to close sockets properly. 23 o Make autogen.sh script run correctly on systems where /bin/sh isn't bash. (Patch from Trond Norbye, rewritten by Hagne Mahre and then Hannah Schroeter.) 24 o Skip calling gettime() in timeout_process if we are not in fact waiting for any events. (Patch from Trond Norbye) 25 o Make test subdirectory compile under mingw. 26 o Fix win32 buffer.c behavior so that it is correct for sockets (which do not like ReadFile and WriteFile). 27 o Make the test.sh script run unit tests for the evpoll method. 28 o Make the entire evdns.h header enclosed in "extern C" as appropriate. 29 o Fix implementation of strsep on platforms that lack it 30 o Fix implementation of getaddrinfo on platforms that lack it; mainly, this will make Windows http.c work better. Original patch by Lubomir Marinov. 31 o Fix evport implementation: port_disassociate called on unassociated events resulting in bogus errors; more efficient memory management; from Trond Norbye and Prakash Sangappa 32 o support for hooks on rpc input and output; can be used to implement rpc independent processing such as compression or authentication. 33 o use a min heap instead of a red-black tree for timeouts; as a result finding the min is a O(1) operation now; from Maxim Yegorushkin 34 o associate an event base with an rpc pool 35 o added two additional libraries: libevent_core and libevent_extra in addition to the regular libevent. libevent_core contains only the event core whereas libevent_extra contains dns, http and rpc support 36
