- this API since 0.9.1. [William Rowe, Brad Nicholes].
-
-Changes with APR-util 1.2.6
-
- *) Stop trying to link against Berkeley DB by default. To enable use
- of Berkeley DB users must now explicitly pass --with-berkeley-db to
- configure, since Berkeley DB is released under a viral license that
- requires distribution of source code for any program that uses it.
- [Garrett Rooney]
-
- *) Stop trying to link against GDBM by default. To enable use of GDBM
- users must now explicitly pass --with-gdbm to configure, since GDBM

-
- *) Fix VPATH builds, and symlink builds where apr and apr-util
- reside in parallel as symlinks to directories with more explicit
- names, e.g. apr-1.x and apr-util-1.x. This solves various breakage
- on Solaris in particular with ./buildconf and ./configure. Also
- eliminated the nested ../apr-iconv/buildconf, given that apr-util
- didn't bother with ../apr/buildconf, and this was inconsistant.
- [William Rowe]
-
- *) Fix the escape implementations for the sqlite2 and sqlite3 dbd
- back ends.
- [Ronen Mizrahi <ronen tversity.com>, Garrett Rooney]
-
- *) Add support for Berkeley DB 4.4 to the configure scripts.

-
- *) Fix usage of ldapssl_init/ldap_sslinit on platforms that support
- these API's including Win32. Support APR_HAS_LDAP_START_TLS_S
- flag in the Win32 LDAP API, to drop usage of ldap_start_ssl_s
- and ldap_stop_ssl_s on Win32 by default (change the flag in apr_ldap.hw
- to enable if supported on a given OS level). [William Rowe]
-
-Changes with APR-util 1.2.1
-
- *) Fix apr_rmm_realloc() offset calculation bug. [Keith Kelleman
- <keith.kelleman oracle.com>]

- into a brigade, regardless of size. [Joe Orton]
-
-Changes with APR-util 1.0.2
-
- *) Teach apr_ldap_init() how to handle STARTTLS in addition to the existing
- SSL support. Add apr_ldap_option API. [Graham Leggett]

- detected regardless", while remaining backwards compatible with v1.0.
- [Graham Leggett]
-
- *) Added the apr_ldap_ssl_add_cert() API to allow multiple certificates

- Fix input validation in apr_uri_parse() to avoid passing negative
- length to memcpy for malformed IPv6 literal addresses.
- [Joe Orton]
-
-Changes with APR-util 1.0
-
- *) Only install apu-$MAJOR-config and add appropriate detection code to
- find_apu.m4 (APU_FIND_APU). [Max Bowsher <maxb ukf.net>]
-
- *) Overhaul support for LDAP URL parsing. Instead of using incompatible
- URL parsers and memory that needs freeing, apr-util provides a parser
- which parses the URL and allocates memory from a pool. [Graham Leggett]
-
- *) Remove support for LDAP v2.0 SDK toolkits. This will be added
- back properly later assuming there is demand for it. In the mean
- time, please use an LDAP v3.0 SDK toolkit. [Graham Leggett]
-
- *) Add an apr_ldap_err_t structure to handle the return of LDAP

-
- *) Add timeout feature to apr_reslist_acquire().
- [Mladen Turk <mturk apache.org>]

-
- *) Fix corrupt output from the apr_xlate_* interfaces on AIX 4.x.

-
- *) Fixed a bug in apr_rmm that would cause it to mishandle blocks of
- a size close to the one requested from the allocator.
- [Kevin Wang <xwang_tech yahoo.com>]
-
-Changes with APR-util 0.9.4
-
- *) Changed apr_bucket_alloc_create() so that it uses the allocator
- from the pool that was passed in rather than creating its own.
- Also, the bucket_allocator is now allocated from the apr_allocator_t
- rather than using apr_palloc(). Added apr_bucket_alloc_create_ex()
- which takes an apr_allocator_t* directly rather than an apr_pool_t*.
- [Cliff Woolley, Jean-Jacques Clar]
-
- *) Added debugging consistency checks to the buckets code. Add
- -DAPR_BUCKET_DEBUG to the build flags to enable.

- issue with apr_password_validate() on AIX, Linux, Mac OS X, and
- possibly other platforms. [Jeff Trawick, Justin Erenkrantz]

- subsequent tests but LDFLAGS no longer included the path to such
- LDAP libraries. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Fix a problem preventing the use of the bundled Expat when APR-util
- is built stand-alone. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Use the same compiler and preprocessor for the APR-util config tests
- which were used by APR. The user can override this via CC and CPP.
- This was done all along for the actual build, but not necessarily
- for the config tests. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Fix apr_uuid_parse() on EBCDIC machines. [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Fix alignment problem when allocating memory using apr_rmm. The problem
- showed up while trying to write a double in the memory allocated.
- [Madhusudan Mathihalli]
-
-Changes with APR-util 0.9.3
-
- *) Allow apr_date_parse_rfc to parse 'Sun, 06-Nov-1994 08:49:37 GMT' as a
- valid date. [Dmitri Tikhonov <dm...@netilla.com>]

- *) Fix error in apu-config when symlinks are involved.
- [Garrett Rooney <ro...@electricjellyfish.net>]
-
-Changes with APR-util 0.9.2

- *) Have buildconf copy required files from apr so that apr-util can build
- on its own. [Craig Rodrigues <ro...@attbi.com>]
-
- *) Detect OpenLDAP when used with Solaris 9. PR 13427.

- *) Bug #9789 : NDBM support
- [Toomas Soome <ts...@muhv.pri.ee>, Ian Holsman]
-
- *) Added a Thread safe FIFO bounded buffer (apr_queue) [Ian Holsman]
-
- *) Changed file_bucket_setaside() to use apr_file_setaside() instead
- of turning the file bucket into an mmap bucket. [Brian Pane]
-
- *) Install libaprutil support libraries before installing libaprutil
- itself, since on some platforms libaprutil is relinked during
- make install and the support libraries need to exist already.
- [Jeff Trawick]
-
- *) Added a Resource List API for threadsafe access to persistent
- and dynamically created user-defined resources. [Aaron Bannert]
-
- *) Adopted apr-util/xlate from apr/i18n for inclusion of apr-iconv

- where it was trying to overlay a potentially static input
- string even though it didn't really need to.
- [Cliff Woolley, Doug MacEachern]
-
- *) Ensure that apu-config does not print libtool libraries when
- using --libs. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Added apr_bucket_file_enable_mmap() function to the bucket
- API to let an application control whether a file bucket may
- be turned into an mmap bucket upon read. (The default remains
- to do the mmap, but this function lets the app prevent the
- mmap in contexts where mmap would be a bad idea. Examples
- include multiprocessors where mmap doesn't scale well and
- NFS-mounted filesystems where a bus error can result if
- a memory-mapped file is removed or truncated.) [Brian Pane]
-
- *) Added string-matching API (apr_strmatch.h) [Brian Pane]
-
- *) Rearrange INCLUDES so that APRUTIL_PRIV_INCLUDES is always
- first. [Garrett Rooney <ro...@electricjellyfish.net>]
-
- *) Add --old-expat option to apu-config to allow users of apr-util to
- determine what expat it should expect to be installed. If the
- flag is set to yes, it should include xmlparse.h. If it is set to
- no, it should include expat.h. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Fix exporting of includes in apu-config. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Change bucket brigades API to allow a "bucket allocator" to be
- passed in at certain points. This allows us to implement freelists
- so that we can stop using malloc/free so frequently.
- [Cliff Woolley, Brian Pane]
-
- *) add apr_rmm_realloc() function
- [Madhusudan Mathihalli <ma...@hp.com>]
-

- [Thom May <th...@planetarytramp.net>]
-
- *) Add detection support for FreeBSD's expat and expat2 ports.
- [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Deprecate check_brigade_flush(), which had several nasty bugs, and
- which was causing apr_brigade_write()'s logic to be less than obvious.
- Everything is now done in a slightly rearranged apr_brigade_write().
- [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) Don't add /usr/include to the INCLUDES variable on expat's account.
- [Joe Orton <jo...@manyfish.co.uk>]
-
- *) Remove the autoconf 2.5x cache directory in buildconf.
- [Joe Orton <jo...@manyfish.co.uk>]

- *) BerkleyDB should NULL out the key if it is @EOF in vt_db_nextkey
- [Ian Holsman]
-
- *) Add ability to natively fetch and split brigades based on LF lines.
- [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) add --with-berkeley-db=DIR & --with-gdbm configure flags
- [Ian Holsman/Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Fix expat detection to recognize installed versions.
- [Eric Gillespie, Jr. <ep...@pretzelnet.org>]
-
- *) Add find_apu.m4 to allow third-party programs that use APR-util
- to have a standard m4 macro for detection. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Add apu-config - a shell script to allow third-party programs
- easy access to APR configuration parameters. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Add GMT offset calculation to apr_date_parse_rfc().
- [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Introduce the apr_rmm api, to allow relocatable memory management
- of address-independent data stores, such as shared memory.
- [William Rowe]
-
- *) Rework and fix VPATH-build support. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Add support for Berkeley DB4. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Improve testdbm help. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Improve autoconf detection of DBMs. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) BerkeleyDBM v2 now checks minor level for cursor ops [Ian Holsman]
-
- *) Reading a file bucket bigger than APR_MMAP_LIMIT (4MB) now yields
- a string of 4MB mmap buckets, rather than a string of 8KB heap buckets
- plus a 4MB mmap bucket. To accomodate this, the mmap bucket destroy
- function explicitly deletes the apr_mmap_t after last reference
- to avoid having too much of a large file mapped at once if possible.
- [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) Multi-DBM support (via apr_dbm_open_ex). [Ian Holsman]
-
- *) Use apr_mmap_dup in mmap_setaside(). [Brian Pane <bp...@pacbell.net>]
-
- *) Dropped the "w" parameter from apr_bucket_heap_create() and
- apr_bucket_heap_make(). That parameter was originally intended
- to return the amount of data copied into the bucket, but it
- ended up being unnecessary because that amount is invariant from
- the size of the data and is available as b->length in the
- resulting bucket anyway. [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) Fix Makefile conversion for BSD/OS. [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) Use APR_XtOffsetOf instead of offsetof() in the ring macros for
- portability. [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) We now create exports.c and export_vars.h, which in turn create
- exports.c. From this we generate two more files with different
- purposes: aprutil.exp - list of exported symbols; and exports.lo
- (exports.o) - an object file that can be linked with an executable
- to force resolution of all apr-util symbols. [Aaron Bannert]
-
- *) Fix Berkley DBM support [Ian Holsman <ia...@apache.org>]
-
- *) Fix apr_brigade_vprintf so that it can handle more than
- 4k of data at one time. [Cody Sherr <cs...@covalent.net>]
-
- *) prefix UNP_* flags with APR_URI_
-
- rename:
- apr_uri_components -> apr_uri_t
- apr_uri_unparse_components -> apr_uri_unparse
- apr_uri_parse_components -> apr_uri_parse
- apr_uri_parse_hostinfo_components -> apr_uri_parse_hostinfo

- s/APU_URI_/APR_URI_/g
- [Perl]
-
- *) Landed the link-to-LDAP to the build process, and the LDAP v2/v3
- compatibility functions.
- [Dave Carrigan <da...@rudedog.org>, Graham Leggett]
-
- *) Fix URI unparse function to handle the case where it would place a @
- when both the username and password were present but omitted.
- [Jon Travis <jtravis@covalent.net]
-
- *) Added apr_xml_parse_file() routine and a testxml program.
- [Ian Holsman <ia...@cnet.com>]
-
- *) Extend apr_bucket struct to add a pointer to a function used
- to free the bucket. This change enables custom buckets to
- completely specify how they are to be allocated and freed.
- Before this change, custom buckets were required to use the
- same memory allocation scheme as the standard APR buckets.
- [Saeid Sakhitab, Bill Stoddard, Cliff Woolley, Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Install Expat when installing APR-util. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Make APR-util configure script rely on APR. This removes the locally
- generated copy of libtool and uses the one in APR. Fix up how we
- call the expat configure script. Generate config.nice file.
- [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) The apr_bucket lengths are now consistently apr_size_t, while any
- apr_brigade lengths (short of a read) are consistently apr_off_t.
- This is required for APR_HAS_LARGE_FILES handling. [William Rowe]
-
- *) apr_bucket_file_create() and apr_bucket_file_make() now take a pool
- parameter which is the pool into which any needed data structures
- should be created during file_read(). This is used for MMAPing the
- file and reopening the file if the original apr_file_t is in XTHREAD
- mode. [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) apr_brigade_partition() now returns an apr_status_t. [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) Add MD4 implementation in crypto. [Sander Striker, Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Moved httpd 2.0.18's util_date to apr_date and enhanced its parsing
- capabilities. [Justin Erenkrantz]
-
- *) Moved httpd 2.0.18's util_uri to apr_uri and name-protected its
- symbols and functions. [Justin Erenkrantz, Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Rename field "private" in struct apr_xml_elem to "priv" for C++
- compatibility. PR #7727 [Joshua MacDonald <jm...@cs.berkeley.edu>]
-
- *) Make APR_IMPLEMENT_EXTERNAL_HOOK_BASE generate a
- ${namespace}_hook_get_${hookname} function to fetch the
- list of registered hooks [Doug MacEachern]
-
- *) Allow LTFLAGS to be overridden by the configure command-line
- (default="--silent") and introduce LT_LDFLAGS. [Roy Fielding]
-
- *) Add APR_SHARELOCK support to apr_sdbm_open(), locking read operations
- with a shared lock and all write ops with an excl lock. [Will Rowe]
-
- *) Namespace protect apr_sdbm, and normalize the return values (including
- the apr_sdbm_fetch, apr_sdbm_firstkey and apr_sdbm_nextkey functions).
- Normalized the get/clear error function names, and stores the actual
- apr error for apr_sdbm_error_get. [Will Rowe]
-
- *) Introduce an apr_fileperms_t argument to apr_dbm_open(). [Will Rowe]
-
- *) Removed apr_bucket_do_create() macro, which was causing warnings
- about unreachable code in some compilers (notably MSVC). What
- used to be done by this macro is now done inline in the various
- apr_bucket_foo_create() functions. [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) Make clean, distclean, and extraclean consistently according to the
- Gnu makefile guidelines. [Justin Erenkrantz <je...@ebuilt.com>]
-
- *) Migrate the --disable-libtool changes from APR to APR-util.
- This cleans things up, and allows more flexibility when building
- programs. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Allow APR-util to be compiled without libtool. The default is
- to use libtool, but it can turned off with --disable-libtool
- on the configure command. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) Repair calling convention for apr_register_optional_fn to
- eliminate GP fault on Win32. [William Rowe]
-
- *) Substantial changes to correct linkage and declarations for
- generic hooks on dso architectures. [Ben Laurie, Will Rowe]
-
- *) apr_bucket_shared_destroy() now returns a boolean value.
- [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) We have to initialize the heap buckets to the correct length.
- we were seeing heap buckets with 17 chars in them reporting
- a length of 9017, because they were initialized to the amount
- of memory allocated, instead of the amount of memory used.
- This was only an issue for heap buckets created by the
- apr_brigade_* functions. [Ryan Bloom]
-
- *) apr_bucket_init_types() and apr_bucket_insert_type() have been
- removed... they're not needed anymore. [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) The apr_bucket_shared and apr_bucket_simple structures have been
- removed as an API simplification/optimization. This should be
- transparent outside APR-util except to callers who attempt to
- directly manipulate the buckets' internal structure (which is
- not recommended anyway) and to callers who create their own
- bucket types. [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) apr_bucket_simple_split() and apr_bucket_simple_copy() are now
- exported functions, which could be helpful in implementing
- external bucket types. [Cliff Woolley]
-
- *) The third parameter to apr_bucket_shared_make() is now
- 'apr_off_t length' rather than 'apr_off_t end', since the
- end usually had to be computed by the caller and all we
- really want is the length anyway. [Cliff Woolley]
