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26 shortcoming in this oh-so-outdated macosx.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