Version 7.19.3 [requires libcurl-7.19.0 or better] - 2014-01-09
---------------------------------------------------------------
* Added CURLOPT_NOPROXY.
* Added CURLINFO_LOCAL_PORT, CURLINFO_PRIMARY_PORT and
CURLINFO_LOCAL_IP (patch by Adam Jacob Muller).
* When running on Python 2.x, for compatibility with Python 3.x,
Unicode strings containing ASCII code points only are now accepted
in setopt() calls.
* PycURL now requires that compile time SSL backend used by libcurl
is the same as the one used at runtime. setup.py supports
--with-ssl, --with-gnutls and --with-nss options like libcurl does,
to specify which backend libcurl uses. On some systems PycURL can
automatically figure out libcurl's backend.
If the backend is not one for which PycURL provides crypto locks
(i.e., any of the other backends supported by libcurl),
no runtime SSL backend check is performed.
* Default PycURL user agent string is now built at runtime, and will
include the user agent string of libcurl loaded at runtime rather
than the one present at compile time.
* PycURL will now use WSAduplicateSocket rather than dup on Windows
to duplicate sockets obtained from OPENSOCKETFUNCTION.
Using dup may have caused crashes, OPENSOCKETFUNCTION should
now be usable on Windows.
* A new script, winbuild.py, was added to build PycURL on Windows
against Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.2 and 3.3.
* Added CURL_LOCK_DATA_SSL_SESSION (patch by Tom Pierce).
* Added E_OPERATION_TIMEDOUT (patch by Romuald Brunet).
* setup.py now handles --help argument and will print PycURL-specific
configuration options in addition to distutils help.
* Windows build configuration has been redone:
PYCURL_USE_LIBCURL_DLL #define is gone, use --use-libcurl-dll
argument to setup.py to build against a libcurl DLL.
CURL_STATICLIB is now #defined only when --use-libcurl-dll is not
given to setup.py, and PycURL is built against libcurl statically.
--libcurl-lib-name option can be used to override libcurl import
library name.
* Added CURLAUTH_DIGEST_IE as pycurl.HTTPAUTH_DIGEST_IE.
* Added CURLOPT_POSTREDIR option and CURL_REDIR_POST_301,
CURL_REDIR_POST_302, CURL_REDIR_POST_303 and CURL_REDIR_POST_ALL
constants. CURL_REDIR_POST_303 requires libcurl 7.26.0 or higher,
all others require libcurl 7.19.1 or higher.
* PycURL now supports Python 3.1 through 3.3. Python 3.0 might
work but it appears to ship with broken distutils, making virtualenv
not function on it.
* PycURL multi objects now have the multi constants defined on them.
Previously the constants were only available on pycurl module.
The new behavior matches that of curl and share objects.
* PycURL share objects can now be closed via the close() method.
* PycURL will no longer call `curl-config --static-libs` if
`curl-config --libs` succeeds and returns output.
Systems on which neither `curl-config --libs` nor
`curl-config --static-libs` do the right thing should provide
a `curl-config` wrapper that is sane.
* Added CURLFORM_BUFFER and CURLFORM_BUFFERPTR.
* pycurl.version and user agent string now include both
PycURL version and libcurl version as separate items.
* Added CURLOPT_DNS_SERVERS.
* PycURL can now be dynamically linked against libcurl on Windows
if PYCURL_USE_LIBCURL_DLL is #defined during compilation.
* Breaking change: opensocket callback now takes an additional
(address, port) tuple argument. Existing callbacks will need to
be modified to accept this new argument.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
* Fixed a bug in a commit made in 2008 but not released until 7.19.0.1
which caused CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS to not correctly increment reference
count of the object being given as its argument, despite libcurl not
copying the data provided by said object.
* Added support for libcurl pause/unpause functionality,
via curl_easy_pause call and returning READFUNC_PAUSE from
read callback function.
Version 7.19.0.1 [requires libcurl-7.19.0 or better] - 2013-09-23
-----------------------------------------------------------------

* Cleaned up website.
* Fix pycurl.reset() (patch by <johansen at sun.com>).
* Fix install routine in setup.py where
certain platforms (Solaris, Mac OSX, etc)
would search for a static copy of libcurl (dbp).
* Fixed build on OpenSolaris 0906 and other platforms on which
curl-config does not have a --static-libs option.
* No longer keep string options copies in the
Curl Python objects, since string options are
now managed by libcurl.
(change to register distutils egg-info)
Version 7.19.0 [requires libcurl-7.19.0 or better]
--------------
* Added CURLFILE, ADDRESS_SCOPE and ISSUERCERT options,
as well as the APPCONNECT_TIME info.
* Added PRIMARY_IP info (patch by

QUOTE, POSTQUOTE, PREQUOTE) by passing an empty
list to setopt (patch by Jim Patterson).
Version 7.18.1
--------------
* Added POST301, SSH_HOST_PUBLIC_KEY_MD5,
COPYPOSTFIELDS and PROXY_TRANSFER_MODE options.
* Check for static libs in setup.py to better detect
whether libcurl was linked with OpenSSL or GNUTLS.
* PycURL is now dual licensed under the LGPL and
a license similar to the cURL license (an MIT/X
derivative).
on some platforms that lacked shared library support in the past. The
list hasn't been maintained at all and the gain is very limited, so just
get rid of it.
- assume that Python 2.4 and 2.5 are compatible and allow checking for
fallout.
- remove PYTHON_VERSIONS_COMPATIBLE that are obsoleted by the 2.3+
default. Modify the others to deal with the removals.
Version 7.16.1 [requires libcurl-7.16.1 or better]
--------------
* Added constants for all libcurl (error) return codes. They
are named the same as the macro constants in curl.h but prefixed
with E_ instead of CURLE. Return codes for the multi API are
prefixed with M_ instead of CURLM.

--------------
2005-05-18 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Added missing information returned from the info() method
in the high-level interface.
* Added the FORM_FILENAME option to the CURLFORM API
with HTTPPOST.
Version 7.13.2
--------------
2005-03-30 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Unbreak tests/test_gtk.py and require pygtk >= 2.0.
2005-03-15 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Cleaned up several of the examples.
2005-03-11 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* WARNING: multi.select() now requires the previously optional
timeout parameter. Updated the tests and examples to reflect
this change. If the timeout is not set, select could block
infinitely and cause problems for the internal timeout handling
in the multi stack. The problem was identified by
<unknownsoldier93 at yahoo.com>.
Version 7.13.1
--------------
2005-03-04 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Use METH_NOARGS where appropriate.
2005-03-03 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Added support for CURLFORM API with HTTPPOST: Supports a
a tuple with pairs of options and values instead of just
supporting string contents. See tests/test_post2.py
for example usage. Options are FORM_CONTENTS, FORM_FILE and
FORM_CONTENTTYPE, corresponding to the CURLFORM_* options,
and values are strings.
2005-02-13 Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer <mfx>
* Read callbacks (pycurl.READFUNCTION) can now return
pycurl.READFUNC_ABORT to immediately abort the current transfer.
* The INFILESIZE, MAXFILESIZE, POSTFIELDSIZE and RESUME_FROM
options now automatically use the largefile version to handle
files > 2GB.
* Added missing pycurl.PORT constant.
Version 7.13.0
--------------
2005-02-10 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Added file_upload.py to examples, shows how to upload
a file.
* Added CURLOPT_IOCTLFUNCTION/DATA.
* Added options from libcurl 7.13.0: FTP_ACCOUNT, SOURCE_URL,
SOURCE_QUOTE.
* Obsoleted options: SOURCE_HOST, SOURCE_PATH, SOURCE_PORT,
PASV_HOST.
Version 7.12.3
--------------
2004-12-22 Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer <mfx>
* Added CURLINFO_NUM_CONNECTS and CURLINFO_SSL_ENGINES.
* Added some other missing constants.
* Updated pycurl.version_info() to return a 12-tuple
instead of a 9-tuple.
Version 7.12.2
--------------
2004-10-15 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Added CURLOPT_FTPSSLAUTH (and CURLFTPAUTH_*).
* Added CURLINFO_OS_ERRNO.
2004-08-17 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Use LONG_LONG instead of PY_LONG_LONG to make pycurl compile
on Python versions < 2.3 (fix from Domenico Andreoli
<cavok at libero.it>).
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).
* Unbreak tests/test_gtk.py and require pygtk >= 2.0.
* Cleaned up several of the examples.
* WARNING: multi.select() now requires the previously optional
timeout parameter. Updated the tests and examples to reflect
this change. If the timeout is not set, select could block
infinitely and cause problems for the internal timeout handling
in the multi stack.
python*-pth packages into meta-packages which will install the non-pth
packages. Bump PKGREVISIONs on the non-pth versions to propagate the
thread change, but leave the *-pth versions untouched to not affect
existing installations.
Sync all PYTHON_VERSIONS_AFFECTED lines in package Makefiles.
Version 7.12.2 [requires libcurl-7.12.2 or better]
--------------
2004-10-15 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Added CURLOPT_FTPSSLAUTH (and CURLFTPAUTH_*).
* Added CURLINFO_OS_ERRNO.
2004-08-17 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Use LONG_LONG instead of PY_LONG_LONG to make pycurl compile
on Python versions < 2.3 (fix from Domenico Andreoli
<cavok at libero.it>).
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
Version 7.12.1 [requires libcurl-7.12.1 or better]
--------------
2004-08-02 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Added INFOTYPE_SSL_DATA_IN/OUT.
2004-07-16 Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer <mfx>
* WARNING: removed deprecated PROXY_, TIMECOND_ and non-prefixed INFOTYPE constant names. See ChangeLog entry 2003-06-10.
2004-06-21 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Added test program for HTTP post using the read callback (see
tests/test_post3.py for details).
* Use the new CURL_READFUNC_ABORT return code where appropriate
to avoid hanging in perform() when read callbacks are used.
* Added support for libcurl 7.12.1 CURLOPT features:
SOURCE_HOST, SOURCE_USERPWD, SOURCE_PATH, SOURCE_PORT,
PASV_HOST, SOURCE_PREQUOTE, SOURCE_POSTQUOTE.
2004-06-08 Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer <mfx>
* Setting CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS now allows binary data and
automatically sets CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE for you. If you really
want a different size you have to manually set POSTFIELDSIZE
after setting POSTFIELDS.
(Based on a patch by Martin Muenstermann).
2004-06-05 Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer <mfx>
* Added stricter checks within the callback handlers.
* Unify the behaviour of int and long parameters where appropriate.
Version 7.12
------------
2004-05-18 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* WARNING: To simplify code maintenance pycurl now requires
libcurl 7.11.2 and python 2.2 or newer to work.
* GC support is now always enabled.
Version 7.11.3
--------------
2004-04-30 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Do not use the deprecated curl_formparse function.
API CHANGE: HTTPPOST now takes a list of tuples where each
tuple contains a form name and a form value, both strings
(see test/test_post2.py for example usage).
* Found a possible reference count bug in the multithreading
code which may have contributed to the long-standing GC
segfault which has haunted pycurl. Fingers crossed.
Version 7.11.2
--------------
2004-04-21 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Added support for libcurl 7.11.2 CURLOPT features:
CURLOPT_TCP_NODELAY.
2004-03-25 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Store Python longs in off_t with PyLong_AsLongLong instead
of PyLong_AsLong. Should make the options which deal
with large files behave a little better. Note that this
requires the long long support in Python 2.2 or newer to
work properly.
Version 7.11.1
--------------
2004-03-16 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* WARNING: Removed support for the PASSWDFUNCTION callback, which
is no longer supported by libcurl.
2004-03-15 Kjetil Jacobsen <kjetilja>
* Added support for libcurl 7.11.1 CURLOPT features:
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE_LARGE.
* Added support for libcurl 7.11.0 CURLOPT features:
INFILESIZE_LARGE, RESUME_FROM_LARGE, MAXFILESIZE_LARGE
and FTP_SSL.
* Circular garbage collection support can now be enabled or
disabled by passing the '--use-gc=[0|1]' parameter to setup.py
when building pycurl.
* HTTP_VERSION options are known as CURL_HTTP_VERSION_NONE,
CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_0, CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1 and
CURL_HTTP_VERSION_LAST.
* Added support for these new libcurl 7.11.0 features:
CURLOPT_NETRC_FILE.
changes:
* Added support for these new libcurl 7.10.8 features:
CURLOPT_FTP_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT, CURLOPT_IPRESOLVE,
CURLOPT_MAXFILESIZE,
CURLINFO_HTTPAUTH_AVAIL, CURLINFO_PROXYAUTH_AVAIL,
CURL_IPRESOLVE_* constants.
* Added support for these new libcurl 7.10.7 features:
CURLOPT_FTP_CREATE_MISSING_DIRS, CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH,
CURLINFO_HTTP_CONNECTCODE.
* Added missing CURLOPT_ENCODING option (patch by Martijn
Boerwinkel <xim@xs4all.nl>)
added python23-pth support
Many changes and fixes.
See ChangeLog for a complete list.
Important:
* WARNING: Removed the deprecated pycurl.init() and pycurl.multi_init()
names - use pycurl.Curl() and pycurl.CurlMulti() instead.
* WARNING: Removed the deprecated Curl.cleanup() and CurlMulti.cleanup()
methods - use Curl.close() and CurlMulti.close() instead.
- accept python-21pth only
Changes :
* Added new module-level function version_info() from
libcurl-7.10.
* Added commandline options to setup.py for specifying the path to
'curl-config' (non-windows) and the curl installation directory
(windows). See the 'INSTALL' file for details.
* Added CURLOPT_ENCODING, CURLOPT_NOSIGNAL and CURLOPT_BUFFERSIZE
from libcurl-7.10 (by Markus Oberhumer).
* Added a simple web-browser example based on gtkhtml and pycurl.
See the file 'examples/gtkhtml_demo.py' for details. The example
requires a working installation of gnome-python with gtkhtml
bindings enabled (pass --with-gtkhtml to gnome-python configure).
* Added new method 'select' on CurlMulti objects. Example usage
in 'tests/test_multi5.py'. This method is just an optimization of
the combined use of fdset and select.
* Added support for curl_multi_fdset. See the file
'tests/test_multi4.py' for example usage. Contributed by Conrad
Steenberg <conrad@hep.caltech.edu>.
* perform() on multi objects now returns a tuple (result, number
of handles) like the libcurl interface does.
* Added the 'sfquery' script which retrieves a SourceForge XML
export object for a given project. See the file 'examples/sfquery.py'
for details and usage. 'sfquery' was contributed by Eric
S. Raymond <esr@thyrsus.com>.
* API enhancements: added Curl() and CurlMulti() as aliases for
init() and multi_init(), and added close() methods as aliases
for the cleanup() methods. The new names much better match
the actual intended use of the objects, and they also nicely
correspond to Python's file object.
* Also, all constants for Curl.setopt() and Curl.getinfo() are now
visible from within Curl objects.
* More see Changes
- All changes are fully backward-compatible. -
extension Makefile fragments, because they really don't have anything to
do with the buildlink[12] frameworks. Change all the Makefiles that use
application.buildlink.mk and extension.buildlink.mk to use application.mk
and extension.mk instead.
Change since 0.4.8 :
* New versioning scheme. Pycurl now has the same version number
as the libcurl version it was built with. The pycurl version
number thus indicates which version of libcurl is required to run.
* Added CURLINFO_REDIRECT_TIME and CURLINFO_REDIRECT_COUNT.
* Fixed potential memory leak and thread race (by Markus
Oberhumer)
* Added CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION to allow debug callbacks to be
specified (see the file 'test_debug.py' for details on how to use
debug callbacks).
* Added CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE and
CURLOPT_DNS_CACHE_TIMEOUT.
* Fixed a segfault when finalizing curl objects in Python 1.5.2.
* Added 'test_post2.py' file which is another example on how to
issue POST requests.
* Added the 'test_post.py' file which demonstrates the use of
POST requests.
