Releasing libmicrohttpd 0.9.22. -CG
Adding configure option to allow selecting support for basic
and digest authentication separately (#2525). -CG
Fixing URI argument parsing when string contained keys without
equals sign (i.e. '&bar&') in the middle of the argument (#2531).
Also replacing 'strstr' with more efficient 'strchr' when
possible. -CG
Use "int" instead of "enum X" in 'va_arg' calls to be nice to
compilers that use 'short' (i.e. 8 or 16 bit) enums but pass
enums still as "int" in varargs. (See discussion on mailinglist). -CG/MV
Reduce default size in post processor buffer (for small systems;
performance impact on large systems should be minimal). -CG/MV

Releasing libmicrohttpd 0.9.21. -CG
Thu Jul 19 11:34:50 CEST 2012
Consistently use 'panic' function instead of ever directly

Removing check in testcases that fails depending on which
version of gnuTLS is involved. -CG
Tue Jul 17 23:50:43 CEST 2012
Stylistic code clean up. Allowing lookup up of trailing values
without keys using "MHD_lookup_connection_value" with a key of NULL
(thus achieving consistency with the existing iterator API). -CG

Make sure sockets opened by MHD are non-inheritable by default (#2414). -CG

make timeouts immune to the system real time clock changing. -MC
Tue Jun 12 21:35:00 CEST 2012
Adding 451 status code. -CG
Releasing 0.9.20. -CG
Fixed some testcase build issues with disabled post processor. -CG
Fixing bug where MHD failed to call connection termination callback
if a connection either was closed due to read errors or if MHD
was terminated with certain threading models. Added new
termination code MHD_REQUEST_TERMINATED_READ_ERROR for the
read-termination cause. -CG
Eliminating code clone in tls connection read/write handlers. -CG
Making sure that MHD_get_connection_values iterates over the
headers in the order in which they were received. -CG

Fixed postprocessor failure for applications that enclosed boundary
in quotes (#2120). -woof

code to initialize this field if it exists now. -CG
Mon Jan 23 14:02:26 CET 2012
Fixed double-free if specified cipher was not valid (during
MHD_daemon_start). Releasing 0.9.18. -CG
Thu Jan 19 22:11:12 CET 2012
Switch to non-blocking sockets for all systems but Cygwin
(we already used non-blocking sockets for GNU/Linux); also
use non-blocking sockets on Cygwin for HTTPS as this is
required to avoid DoS-by-partial-record via gnutls. On
Cygwin, #1824 implies that we need to use blocking sockets
for HTTP on Cygwin for now. -CG
Thu Jan 19 17:46:05 CET 2012
Fixing use of uninitialized 'earliest_deadline' variable in
MHD_get_timeout which can lead to returning an incorrect

Fixing digest authentication for GET requests with URI arguments
(#2059). -CG
Sat Jan 7 17:30:48 CET 2012
Digest authentication expects nonce count in base 16, not base 10

Updated authorization_example.c to actually demonstrate the current
MHD API. -SG
Mon Nov 21 18:51:30 CET 2011

used on embedded systems without RTC. Documented the new option
and the configure options. -CG
Releasing 0.9.17. -CG
Fixing return value of MHD_get_timeout if timeouts are not in use.
(#1914). -rboulton
Trying to fix accidental addition of a "Connection: close" footer
under certain (rare) circumstances. -CG
Small updates to the tutorial.
Releasing 0.9.16. -CG
shutdown(RDWR) fails on OS X after shutdown(RD), so only use
shutdown(WR) if we already closed the socket for reading (otherwise
OS X might not do shutdown (WR) at all). -CG
Force adding of 'Connection: close' to the header if we (for whatever
reason) are shutting down the socket for reading (see also
#1760). -CG
Treat EAGAIN the same way as EINTR (helps on W32). -LRN
Made sockets blocking again for non-Linux platforms as non-blocking
sockets cause problems (#1824) on Cygwin but offer better performance
on Linux (see change on August 11 2011). -CG/pross
Fixed problems with testcases on W32. -LRN
Fixed MHD_CONNECTION_OPTION_TIMEOUT for HTTPS (#1811). -CG
Wed Sep 28 08:37:55 CEST 2011
Releasing libmicrohttpd 0.9.15. -CG
Tue Sep 27 13:07:36 CEST 2011

Fixing problem introduced with prompt response cleanup code. -CG
Wed Sep 14 13:43:26 CEST 2011
Fixing minor memory leak if daemon with HTTPS support failed to
initialize (#1766). -CG
Tue Sep 13 09:47:58 CEST 2011
Try to release responses more promptly upon connection termination. -CG
Mon Sep 12 10:20:28 CEST 2011
Releasing libmicrohttpd 0.9.14. -CG
Mon Sep 12 10:05:36 CEST 2011
Added new function to allow setting of a custom timeout value
for an individual connection (the MHD_set_connection_option is
more generic, but this is currently the only use). -CG
Sat Sep 10 07:30:12 CEST 2011
Documenting that MHD_CONNECTION_INFO_GNUTLS_CLIENT_CERT is not
implemented and will not be implemented, and what to use instead. -CG
Fri Sep 9 13:42:20 CEST 2011
Added testcase to demonstrate that response cleanup calling is
working. No bug was found. -CG
Thu Aug 18 11:05:16 CEST 2011
Fixed bug with wrong state transition if callback returned
MHD_CONTENT_READER_END_OF_STREAM causing spurious extra callbacks
to the handler (thanks to Jan Seeger for pointing it out). -CG/JS
Thu Aug 11 11:40:03 CEST 2011
Changing sockets to be non-blocking as suggested by Eivind Sarto
on the mailinglist. -CG
Mon Jul 25 16:13:15 CEST 2011
Added a logo. -CG
Sat Jul 16 22:42:10 CEST 2011
Change type of nonce to 'unsigned long int' to match return type
from 'strtoul'. Fixes ERANGE check which would have previously
failed. -CG
Wed Jul 13 09:26:17 CEST 2011
Fixing HTTP error status strings for certain high-numbered status codes.
Added support for some more (non-standard) status codes.
Releasing libmicrohttpd 0.9.13. -CG
Thu Jul 7 10:24:20 CEST 2011
Adding performance measurements. -CG
Thu Jun 23 14:21:13 CEST 2011
Releasing libmicrohttpd 0.9.12. -CG
Wed Jun 22 14:32:23 CEST 2011
Force closing connection if either the client asked it or
if the response contains 'Connection: close' (so far,
only the client's request was considered). -CG/RV
Wed Jun 22 10:37:35 CEST 2011
Removing listen socket from poll/select sets in
MHD_USE_THREAD_PER_CONNECTION mode; using 'shutdown'
on connection sockets to signal termination instead. -CG

Eliminate unnecessary (and badly synchronized) calls to
MHD_get_timeout in MHD_USE_THREAD_PER_CONNECTION mode.
Document that this is not acceptable. -CG

Trying to fix stutter problem on timeout described by
David Myers on the mailinglist (5/10/2011). -CG
Fri May 20 22:11:55 CEST 2011
Fixed bug in testcase setup code causing crashes in
tls_session_timeout_test on some systems.
Releasing libmicrohttpd 0.9.11. -CG
Fri May 20 19:34:59 CEST 2011
Fixed bug in parsing multipart/form-data with post processor where
the code failed to add a 0-terminator in the correct position. -PP
Thu May 12 14:40:46 CEST 2011
Fixed bug where if multiple HTTP request messages are piped in at once,

GNU libmicrohttpd is a small C library that is supposed to make it
easy to run an HTTP server as part of another application. GNU
libmicrohttpd is free software and part of the GNU project. Key
features that distinguish libmicrohttpd from other projects are:
* C library: fast and small
* API is simple, expressive and fully reentrant
* Implementation is HTTP 1.1 compliant
* HTTP server can listen on multiple ports
* Four different threading models (select, poll, pthread, thread pool)
* Supported platforms include GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, OS X, W32,
Symbian and z/OS
* Support for IPv6
* Support for SHOUTcast
* Support for incremental processing of POST data (optional)
* Support for basic and digest authentication (optional)
* Support for SSL3 and TLS (requires libgcrypt and libgnutls, optional)
* Binary is only about 32k (without TLS/SSL support and other optional
features)
