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31 shortcoming in this oh-so-outdated macosx.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