2
3 1.10 Fri Jun 13 14:22:42 CEST 2008
4 - fix an infinite-looping problem when scanning in freestyle
5 mode (testcase provided by Pieter Geens).
6
7 1.09 Fri May 25 19:38:11 CEST 2007
8 - create something sensible, trust a windows program to fuck
9 it up: work around literal "(null)" filenames in yenc-encoded
10 files.
11 - some minor cleanups.
12
13 1.08 Sat Dec 16 23:27:13 CET 2006
14 - URGENT update, the last release did not
15 decode files correctly, usually not at all.
16 - my last patch was, of course, completely bogus.
17 (sorry. looked simple...).
18
19 1.07 Sun Dec 10 17:41:46 CET 2006
20 - fixed an uninitialised variable based on analysis
21 and patch by Mark Martinec.
22
23 1.06 Tue Dec 6 00:56:05 CET 2005
24 - fix a number of int/long format errors in the encoding part and
25 fix some signed/unsigned char problems of unknown relevance,
26 reported by Jonas Smedegaard.
27 - new EXPERIMENTAL options OPT_RBUF and OPT_WBUF to set default
28 stdio buffer size for reading and writing files.
29
30 1.051 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005
31 - change of contact address.
32 - updated perl parts to GPLv2.
33
34 1.05 Fri Feb 25 22:50:27 CET 2005
35 - fix a (likely exploitable) segfault problem, (tracked down
36 and/or reported by Mark Martinec and Robert Lewis).
37
38 1.04 Tue Dec 28 15:08:44 CET 2004
39 - slightly improved subject filename extraction.
40 Also see the filename callback in the example-decoder.
41
42 1.03 Sun Apr 18 22:05:43 CEST 2004
43 - upgrade to uudeview-0.5.20, which supposedly fixes a few buffer
44 overflows. However, judging from the patch these vulnerabilities
45 were not present in the Convert-UUlib version (I might err, though,
46 documentation on the actual exploits is scarce).
47 As every uudeview update usually brings more instability than stability
48 I advise against using this version until it has proven itself
49 to be stable, or 1.02 is proven to contain the same buffer overflows.
50
51 1.02 Sun Apr 18 16:47:26 CEST 2004
52 - renamed crc32 to uulib_crc32, to work around yet another
53 shortcoming in this oh-so-outdated macosx.
54
55 1.01 Sun Feb 1 19:49:51 CET 2004
56 - make it compile with 5.005_03 (reported by Anton Berezin).
57 - very short files might not be detected because the header
58 parsing code might skip them.
59
60 1.0 Thu Nov 6 14:32:08 CET 2003
61 - change bracket policy to give priority to (x/y) over (x),
62 and use the last bracket found otherwise.
63 - part numbers at the end of the subject are now recognized.
64 - updated to uulib-0.5.19. Differences and bugfixes kept.
65
66 0.31 Wed Oct 16 01:22:34 CEST 2002
67 - no internal code changes.
68 - much better documentation, now considered "useful".
69 - removed the procedural interface.
70 - fought the wish to perl-5.8'ify and thus simplify the code :().
71 - stress-tested version 0.3 against 70000 data postings since sunday.
72
73 0.3 Sun Oct 13 15:12:11 CEST 2002
74 - updated to uulib 0.5.18. As expected, some but not all of my bugfixes
75 have went into uulib, so the number of differences decreased a bit
76 again.
77 - I found out that the library is being sold commercially by Frank
78 Pilhofer, disregarding the GPL and ignoring the rights of the people
79 who sent in patches :(
80 - vastly more useful documentation in the .pm file.
81 - much smaller distribution filesize ;)
82
83 0.213 Sat Jul 27 21:16:30 CEST 2002
84 - fixed another buffer overflow, also added a santity check to fgets.
85
86 0.212 Sat Apr 6 03:52:13 CEST 2002
87 - fix yEnc decoding support.
88 - new option OPT_DOTDOT, that makes uulib unescape dot-escaping.
89 - increased linelength to 1195.
90
91 0.211 Fri Apr 5 23:56:46 CEST 2002
92 - *sigh*. new version of uulib, new braindamaged buffer overflows
93 fixed. Diffs like "line length 256 => 300" should have
94 alerted me...
95
96 0.21 Sun Mar 31 22:06:05 CEST 2002
97 - bumped uulib from 0.5.15 to 0.5.17 (adds some yEnc support, YENC_ENCODED).
98 - source-renamed FP_*-symbols to _FP_* again, but still define them
99 to be FP_* in the object file.
100 - new callback: SetFileNameCallback (actually documented ;)
101
102 0.201 Sun Sep 16 03:43:38 CEST 2001
103 - fixed another segfault-bug in uulib, thanks to Lars Hecking who
104 provides all the test files ;)
105
106 0.2 Thu Jun 14 18:42:49 CEST 2001
107 - Frank Pilhofer is NOT dead! He is alive, kicking, and fixing
108 bugs in uulib now! Since his uulib and mine diverged quite
109 a bit I am still in the process of merging his bugfixes
110 into my version. So be aware that this might introduce new
111 instabilities...
112 - merged uulib-0.5.15
113 - optimize decode_file to not copy the file contents when a rename
114 succeeds (TMPDIR same disk as destination).
115 - updated documentation.
116
117 0.111 Fri May 4 22:29:09 CEST 2001
118 - heuristic to decode microsoft-rfc822-headers (microsoft uses
119 '\' as path seperator which is also the rfc822 quote character.
120 of course they could have quoted it, but it's microsoft, so
121 only the devil knows how they try to parse mime (they obviously
122 haven't read the standard AGAIN). in case you wonder, this fixes
123 the "c:my_documentssend.doc" "filename" problem.
124
125 0.11 Sun Jul 16 22:42:57 CEST 2000
126 - fixed a bug in the file callback.
127
128 0.10 Tue May 2 03:31:09 CEST 2000
129 - fixed one very longstanding bug that might have been the cause
130 for the many mysterious segmentation faults. Hopefully.
131 - improved documentation to the point that it slowly becomes useful
132 as a (very quick) reference.
133
134 0.07 Wed Nov 24 18:45:23 CET 1999
135 - removed END { CleanUp } from UUlib.pm, perl is too
136 buggy to rely on this in the face of popen etc..
137
138 0.06 Thu Jul 29 22:48:18 CEST 1999
139 - Thierry Bezecourt had the very reasonable idea to include
140 the example source in the manpage.
141
142 0.05 Mon May 24 11:37:25 CEST 1999
143 - LoadFile returns number of parts loaded.
144
145 0.04 Mon May 10 22:02:31 CEST 1999
146 - fixed a couple of portability problems.
147 - UUEncodeToStream had a wrong definition.
148 - added primitive testsuite.
149 - added README.
150
151 0.03 Sat May 8 22:40:01 CEST 1999
152 - renamed it to Convert::UUlib.
153
154 0.02 Fri May 7 01:26:19 CEST 1999
155 - function names exportable (use :all-tag).
156 - made uulist-related functions methods.
157 - the first fix from cpan-tester. *sigh* you people save the
158 world, continuously.
159
160 0.01 Thu May 6 14:30:44 1999
161 - original version; created by h2xs 1.19
