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33 shortcoming in this oh-so-outdated macosx.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