API:
* Add FLAG_CJK_NGRAM for QueryParser and TermGenerator. Has the same effect as
setting the environment variable XAPIAN_CJK_NGRAM. Fixes#180, reported by
Richard Boulton, with contributions from Pavel Strashkin, Mikkel Kamstrup
Erlandsen and Brandon Schaefer.
* Fix bug parsing multiple non-exclusive filter terms - previously this could
result in such filters effectively being ignored.
* Fix Database::get_doclength_lower_bound() over multiple databases when some
are empty or consist only of zero-length documents. Previously this would
report a lower bound of zero, now it reports the same lowest bound as a
single database containing all the same documents.
* Make Database::get_wdf_upper_bound("") return 0.
* Mark constructors taking a single argument as "explicit" to avoid unwanted
implicit conversions.
testsuite:
* If command line option --verbose/-v isn't specified, set the verbosity level
from environmental variable VERBOSE.
* Skip timed tests if $AUTOMATED_TESTING is set. Fixes#553, reported by
Dagobert Michelsen.
* Don't leave an extra fd open when starting xapian-tcpsrv for remotetcp tests.
* apitest: Revert disabling of part of adddoc5 for clang - the test failure was
in fact due to a bug in 1.3.x, and 1.2.x was never affected.
* apitest: Tweak bounds checks in dbstats1 testcase - multi backends should
give tight bounds.
brass backend:
* Format limit on docid now correctly imposed when sizeof(int) > 4.
* Avoid potential DB corruption with full-compaction when using 64K blocks.
chert backend:
* Format limit on docid now correctly imposed when sizeof(int) > 4.
* Avoid potential DB corruption with full-compaction when using 64K blocks.
flint backend:
* Format limit on docid now correctly imposed when sizeof(int) > 4.
* Avoid potential DB corruption with full-compaction when using 64K blocks.
remote backend:
* Fix to handle total document length exceeding 34,359,738,368. (Fixes#678,
reported by matf).
* Avoid dividing by zero when getting the average length for an empty database.
* Stop apparent error from remote server when read-only client disconnects. A
read-only client just closes the connection when done, but the server
previously reported "Got exception NetworkError: Received EOF", which sounds
like there was a problem. Now we just say "Connection closed" here, and
"Connection closed unexpectedly" if the client connects in the middle of an
exchange. Possibly fixes#654, reported by German M. Bravo.
* Give a clearer error message when the client and server remote protocol
versions aren't compatible.
* Check length of key in MSG_SETMETADATA.
build system:
* pkg-config: Fix library name in .pc file to say "xapian" not "xapian-core".
Reported by Eric Lindblad to the xapian-devel list.
* Private symbol decode_length() is no longer visible outside the library.
documentation:
* Stop maintaining ChangeLog files. They make merging patches harder, and stop
'git cherry-pick' from working as it should. The git repo history should be
sufficient for complying with GPLv2 2(a).
* Strip out "quickstart" examples which are out of date and rather redundant
with the "simple" examples.
* Correct documentation of Enquire::get_query(). If no query has been set,
the documentation said Xapian::InvalidArgumentError was thrown, but in
fact we just return a default initialised Query object (i.e. Query()). This
seems reasonable behaviour and has been the case since Xapian 0.9.0.
* Document xapian-compact --blocksize takes an argument.
* Update snowball website link to snowballstem.org.
tools:
* xapian-replicate: Fix replication for files > 4GB on 32-bit platforms.
Previously replication would fail to copy a file whose size didn't fit in
size_t. Fixes#685, reported by Josh Elsasser.
* xapian-tcpsrv: Better error if -p/--port not specified
* quest: Support `-f cjk_ngram`.
examples:
* xapian-metadata: Extend "list" subcommand to take optional key prefix.
portability:
* Fix new warnings from recent versions of GCC and clang.
* Add spaces between literal strings and macros which expand to literal strings
for C++11 compatibility in __WIN32__-specific code.
* Need <unistd.h> for unlink() on FreeBSD, reported by Germán M. Bravo via
github PR 72.
* Fix testsuite to build when S_ISSOCK() isn't defined.
* Don't provide our own implementation of sleep() under __WIN32__ if there
already is one - mingw provides one, and in some situations it seems to clash
with ours. Reported to xapian-discuss by John Alveris.
* Add missing '#include <arpa/inet.h>' to htons(). Seems to be implicitly
included on most platforms, but Interix needs it. Reported by Eric Lindblad
on xapian-discuss.
* Disable "<FUNCTION> is expected to return a value" warning from Sun's C++
compiler, as it fires for functions ending in a "throw" statement. Genuine
instances will be caught by compilers with superior warning machinery.
* Prefer scalbn() to ldexp() where possible, since the former doesn't ever set
errno.
* '#include <config.h>' in the "simple" examples, as when compiling with xlC on
AIX, _LARGE_FILES gets defined by AC_SYS_LARGEFILE to enable large file
support, and defining this changes the ABI of std::string, so it also needs
to be defined when compiling code using Xapian.
* On cygwin, include <arpa/inet.h> instead of winsock headers for htons() and
htonl().
* Include <cygwin/version.h> for CYGWIN_VERSION_API_MAJOR.
* Avoid referencing static members via an object in that object's own
definition, as this doesn't work with all compilers (noted with GCC 3.3), and
is a bit of an odd construct anyway. Reported by Eric Lindblad on
xapian-discuss.
* GCC < 3.4.2 lacks operator<< overloads for unsigned long long on some
platforms, so simply work around this by using str(), as this isn't
performance sensitive code. Reported by Eric Lindblad on xapian-discuss.
* Fix delete which should be delete[] in brass backend cursor code.
