1 root 1.1 Revision history for Perl extension Convert::UUlib.
2    
3 root 1.32 1.07 Sun Dec 10 17:41:46 CET 2006
4     - fixed an uninitialised variable based on analysis
5     and patch by Mark Martinec. This might have caused
6     the coredumps on solaris due to calls to malloc with
7     large positive or negative values.
8    
9 root 1.31 1.06 Tue Dec 6 00:56:05 CET 2005
10 root 1.29 - fix a number of int/long format errors in the encoding part and
11     fix some signed/unsigned char problems of unknown relevance,
12     reported by Jonas Smedegaard.
13 root 1.30 - new EXPERIMENTAL options OPT_RBUF and OPT_WBUF to set default
14     stdio buffer size for reading and writing files.
15 root 1.29
16 root 1.28 1.051 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005
17     - change of contact address.
18     - updated perl parts to GPLv2.
19    
20 root 1.27 1.05 Fri Feb 25 22:50:27 CET 2005
21     - fix a (likely exploitable) segfault problem, (tracked down
22     and/or reported by Mark Martinec and Robert Lewis).
23    
24 root 1.26 1.04 Tue Dec 28 15:08:44 CET 2004
25     - slightly improved subject filename extraction.
26     Also see the filename callback in the example-decoder.
27    
28 root 1.25 1.03 Sun Apr 18 22:05:43 CEST 2004
29     - upgrade to uudeview-0.5.20, which supposedly fixes a few buffer
30     overflows. However, judging from the patch these vulnerabilities
31     were not present in the Convert-UUlib version (I might err, though,
32     documentation on the actual exploits is scarce).
33     As every uudeview update usually brings more instability than stability
34     I advise against using this version until it has proven itself
35     to be stable, or 1.02 is proven to contain the same buffer overflows.
36    
37 root 1.24 1.02 Sun Apr 18 16:47:26 CEST 2004
38     - renamed crc32 to uulib_crc32, to work around yet another
39     shortcoming in this oh-so-outdated macosx.
40    
41 root 1.23 1.01 Sun Feb 1 19:49:51 CET 2004
42 root 1.22 - make it compile with 5.005_03 (reported by Anton Berezin).
43 root 1.23 - very short files might not be detected because the header
44     parsing code might skip them.
45 root 1.22
46 root 1.21 1.0 Thu Nov 6 14:32:08 CET 2003
47 root 1.20 - change bracket policy to give priority to (x/y) over (x),
48     and use the last bracket found otherwise.
49     - part numbers at the end of the subject are now recognized.
50 root 1.21 - updated to uulib-0.5.19. Differences and bugfixes kept.
51 root 1.20
52 root 1.19 0.31 Wed Oct 16 01:22:34 CEST 2002
53     - no internal code changes.
54 root 1.18 - much better documentation, now considered "useful".
55     - removed the procedural interface.
56 root 1.20 - fought the wish to perl-5.8'ify and thus simplify the code :().
57 root 1.19 - stress-tested version 0.3 against 70000 data postings since sunday.
58 root 1.18
59 root 1.15 0.3 Sun Oct 13 15:12:11 CEST 2002
60 root 1.17 - updated to uulib 0.5.18. As expected, some but not all of my bugfixes
61 root 1.20 have went into uulib, so the number of differences decreased a bit
62 root 1.17 again.
63     - I found out that the library is being sold commercially by Frank
64     Pilhofer, disregarding the GPL and ignoring the rights of the people
65     who sent in patches :(
66 root 1.14 - vastly more useful documentation in the .pm file.
67 root 1.16 - much smaller distribution filesize ;)
68 root 1.14
69 root 1.12 0.213 Sat Jul 27 21:16:30 CEST 2002
70     - fixed another buffer overflow, also added a santity check to fgets.
71    
72 root 1.10 0.212 Sat Apr 6 03:52:13 CEST 2002
73     - fix yEnc decoding support.
74     - new option OPT_DOTDOT, that makes uulib unescape dot-escaping.
75 root 1.11 - increased linelength to 1195.
76 root 1.10
77 root 1.9 0.211 Fri Apr 5 23:56:46 CEST 2002
78 root 1.13 - *sigh*. new version of uulib, new braindamaged buffer overflows
79     fixed. Diffs like "line length 256 => 300" should have
80 root 1.9 alerted me...
81    
82 root 1.7 0.21 Sun Mar 31 22:06:05 CEST 2002
83     - bumped uulib from 0.5.15 to 0.5.17 (adds some yEnc support, YENC_ENCODED).
84     - source-renamed FP_*-symbols to _FP_* again, but still define them
85     to be FP_* in the object file.
86 root 1.8 - new callback: SetFileNameCallback (actually documented ;)
87 root 1.7
88 root 1.6 0.201 Sun Sep 16 03:43:38 CEST 2001
89 root 1.5 - fixed another segfault-bug in uulib, thanks to Lars Hecking who
90     provides all the test files ;)
91 root 1.2
92 root 1.5 0.2 Thu Jun 14 18:42:49 CEST 2001
93     - Frank Pilhofer is NOT dead! He is alive, kicking, and fixing
94 root 1.1 bugs in uulib now! Since his uulib and mine diverged quite
95     a bit I am still in the process of merging his bugfixes
96     into my version. So be aware that this might introduce new
97     instabilities...
98     - merged uulib-0.5.15
99 root 1.3 - optimize decode_file to not copy the file contents when a rename
100     succeeds (TMPDIR same disk as destination).
101 root 1.4 - updated documentation.
102 root 1.1
103     0.111 Fri May 4 22:29:09 CEST 2001
104     - heuristic to decode microsoft-rfc822-headers (microsoft uses
105     '\' as path seperator which is also the rfc822 quote character.
106     of course they could have quoted it, but it's microsoft, so
107     only the devil knows how they try to parse mime (they obviously
108     haven't read the standard AGAIN). in case you wonder, this fixes
109     the "c:my_documentssend.doc" "filename" problem.
110    
111     0.11 Sun Jul 16 22:42:57 CEST 2000
112     - fixed a bug in the file callback.
113    
114     0.10 Tue May 2 03:31:09 CEST 2000
115     - fixed one very longstanding bug that might have been the cause
116     for the many mysterious segmentation faults. Hopefully.
117     - improved documentation to the point that it slowly becomes useful
118     as a (very quick) reference.
119    
120     0.07 Wed Nov 24 18:45:23 CET 1999
121     - removed END { CleanUp } from UUlib.pm, perl is too
122     buggy to rely on this in the face of popen etc..
123    
124     0.06 Thu Jul 29 22:48:18 CEST 1999
125     - Thierry Bezecourt had the very reasonable idea to include
126     the example source in the manpage.
127    
128     0.05 Mon May 24 11:37:25 CEST 1999
129     - LoadFile returns number of parts loaded.
130    
131     0.04 Mon May 10 22:02:31 CEST 1999
132     - fixed a couple of portability problems.
133     - UUEncodeToStream had a wrong definition.
134     - added primitive testsuite.
135     - added README.
136    
137     0.03 Sat May 8 22:40:01 CEST 1999
138     - renamed it to Convert::UUlib.
139    
140     0.02 Fri May 7 01:26:19 CEST 1999
141     - function names exportable (use :all-tag).
142     - made uulist-related functions methods.
143     - the first fix from cpan-tester. *sigh* you people save the
144     world, continuously.
145    
146     0.01 Thu May 6 14:30:44 1999
147     - original version; created by h2xs 1.19
