3 1.11 Fri Jun 13 15:32:30 CEST 2008
4 - don't ask.
5
6 1.10 Fri Jun 13 14:22:42 CEST 2008
7 - fix an infinite-looping problem when scanning in freestyle
8 mode (testcase provided by Pieter Geens).
9
10 1.09 Fri May 25 19:38:11 CEST 2007
11 - create something sensible, trust a windows program to fuck
12 it up: work around literal "(null)" filenames in yenc-encoded
13 files.
14 - some minor cleanups.
15
16 1.08 Sat Dec 16 23:27:13 CET 2006
17 - URGENT update, the last release did not
18 decode files correctly, usually not at all.
19 - my last patch was, of course, completely bogus.
20 (sorry. looked simple...).
21
22 1.07 Sun Dec 10 17:41:46 CET 2006
23 - fixed an uninitialised variable based on analysis
24 and patch by Mark Martinec.
25
26 1.06 Tue Dec 6 00:56:05 CET 2005
27 - fix a number of int/long format errors in the encoding part and
28 fix some signed/unsigned char problems of unknown relevance,
29 reported by Jonas Smedegaard.
30 - new EXPERIMENTAL options OPT_RBUF and OPT_WBUF to set default
31 stdio buffer size for reading and writing files.
32
33 1.051 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005
34 - change of contact address.
35 - updated perl parts to GPLv2.
36
37 1.05 Fri Feb 25 22:50:27 CET 2005
38 - fix a (likely exploitable) segfault problem, (tracked down
39 and/or reported by Mark Martinec and Robert Lewis).
40
41 1.04 Tue Dec 28 15:08:44 CET 2004
42 - slightly improved subject filename extraction.
43 Also see the filename callback in the example-decoder.
44
45 1.03 Sun Apr 18 22:05:43 CEST 2004
46 - upgrade to uudeview-0.5.20, which supposedly fixes a few buffer
47 overflows. However, judging from the patch these vulnerabilities
48 were not present in the Convert-UUlib version (I might err, though,
49 documentation on the actual exploits is scarce).
50 As every uudeview update usually brings more instability than stability
51 I advise against using this version until it has proven itself
52 to be stable, or 1.02 is proven to contain the same buffer overflows.
53
54 1.02 Sun Apr 18 16:47:26 CEST 2004
55 - renamed crc32 to uulib_crc32, to work around yet another
56 shortcoming in this oh-so-outdated macosx.
57
58 1.01 Sun Feb 1 19:49:51 CET 2004
59 - make it compile with 5.005_03 (reported by Anton Berezin).
60 - very short files might not be detected because the header
61 parsing code might skip them.
62
63 1.0 Thu Nov 6 14:32:08 CET 2003
64 - change bracket policy to give priority to (x/y) over (x),
65 and use the last bracket found otherwise.
66 - part numbers at the end of the subject are now recognized.
67 - updated to uulib-0.5.19. Differences and bugfixes kept.
68
69 0.31 Wed Oct 16 01:22:34 CEST 2002
70 - no internal code changes.
71 - much better documentation, now considered "useful".
72 - removed the procedural interface.
73 - fought the wish to perl-5.8'ify and thus simplify the code :().
74 - stress-tested version 0.3 against 70000 data postings since sunday.
75
76 0.3 Sun Oct 13 15:12:11 CEST 2002
77 - updated to uulib 0.5.18. As expected, some but not all of my bugfixes
78 have went into uulib, so the number of differences decreased a bit
79 again.
80 - I found out that the library is being sold commercially by Frank
81 Pilhofer, disregarding the GPL and ignoring the rights of the people
82 who sent in patches :(
83 - vastly more useful documentation in the .pm file.
84 - much smaller distribution filesize ;)
85
86 0.213 Sat Jul 27 21:16:30 CEST 2002
87 - fixed another buffer overflow, also added a santity check to fgets.
88
89 0.212 Sat Apr 6 03:52:13 CEST 2002
90 - fix yEnc decoding support.
91 - new option OPT_DOTDOT, that makes uulib unescape dot-escaping.
92 - increased linelength to 1195.
93
94 0.211 Fri Apr 5 23:56:46 CEST 2002
95 - *sigh*. new version of uulib, new braindamaged buffer overflows
96 fixed. Diffs like "line length 256 => 300" should have
97 alerted me...
98
99 0.21 Sun Mar 31 22:06:05 CEST 2002
100 - bumped uulib from 0.5.15 to 0.5.17 (adds some yEnc support, YENC_ENCODED).
101 - source-renamed FP_*-symbols to _FP_* again, but still define them
102 to be FP_* in the object file.
103 - new callback: SetFileNameCallback (actually documented ;)
104
105 0.201 Sun Sep 16 03:43:38 CEST 2001
106 - fixed another segfault-bug in uulib, thanks to Lars Hecking who
107 provides all the test files ;)
108
109 0.2 Thu Jun 14 18:42:49 CEST 2001
110 - Frank Pilhofer is NOT dead! He is alive, kicking, and fixing
111 bugs in uulib now! Since his uulib and mine diverged quite
112 a bit I am still in the process of merging his bugfixes
113 into my version. So be aware that this might introduce new
114 instabilities...
115 - merged uulib-0.5.15
116 - optimize decode_file to not copy the file contents when a rename
117 succeeds (TMPDIR same disk as destination).
118 - updated documentation.
119
120 0.111 Fri May 4 22:29:09 CEST 2001
121 - heuristic to decode microsoft-rfc822-headers (microsoft uses
122 '\' as path seperator which is also the rfc822 quote character.
123 of course they could have quoted it, but it's microsoft, so
124 only the devil knows how they try to parse mime (they obviously
125 haven't read the standard AGAIN). in case you wonder, this fixes
126 the "c:my_documentssend.doc" "filename" problem.
127
128 0.11 Sun Jul 16 22:42:57 CEST 2000
129 - fixed a bug in the file callback.
130
131 0.10 Tue May 2 03:31:09 CEST 2000
132 - fixed one very longstanding bug that might have been the cause
133 for the many mysterious segmentation faults. Hopefully.
134 - improved documentation to the point that it slowly becomes useful
135 as a (very quick) reference.
136
137 0.07 Wed Nov 24 18:45:23 CET 1999
138 - removed END { CleanUp } from UUlib.pm, perl is too
139 buggy to rely on this in the face of popen etc..
140
141 0.06 Thu Jul 29 22:48:18 CEST 1999
142 - Thierry Bezecourt had the very reasonable idea to include
143 the example source in the manpage.
144
145 0.05 Mon May 24 11:37:25 CEST 1999
146 - LoadFile returns number of parts loaded.
147
148 0.04 Mon May 10 22:02:31 CEST 1999
149 - fixed a couple of portability problems.
150 - UUEncodeToStream had a wrong definition.
151 - added primitive testsuite.
152 - added README.
153
154 0.03 Sat May 8 22:40:01 CEST 1999
155 - renamed it to Convert::UUlib.
156
157 0.02 Fri May 7 01:26:19 CEST 1999
158 - function names exportable (use :all-tag).
159 - made uulist-related functions methods.
160 - the first fix from cpan-tester. *sigh* you people save the
161 world, continuously.
162
163 0.01 Thu May 6 14:30:44 1999
164 - original version; created by h2xs 1.19
165
