1 Revision history for Perl extension Convert::UUlib.
2
3 1.12 Mon Oct 13 14:11:01 CEST 2008
4 - use the yencode filesize as additional matching criterium
5 to avoid false matches.
6 - made the example decoder more verbose w.r.t. error handling.
7 - removed potentially confusing decide_temp calls from
8 example decoder.
9
10 1.11 Fri Jun 13 15:32:30 CEST 2008
11 - don't ask.
12
13 1.10 Fri Jun 13 14:22:42 CEST 2008
14 - fix an infinite-looping problem when scanning in freestyle
15 mode (testcase provided by Pieter Geens and Reinhard Pfau).
16
17 1.09 Fri May 25 19:38:11 CEST 2007
18 - create something sensible, trust a windows program to fuck
19 it up: work around literal "(null)" filenames in yenc-encoded
20 files.
21 - some minor cleanups.
22
23 1.08 Sat Dec 16 23:27:13 CET 2006
24 - URGENT update, the last release did not
25 decode files correctly, usually not at all.
26 - my last patch was, of course, completely bogus.
27 (sorry. looked simple...).
28
29 1.07 Sun Dec 10 17:41:46 CET 2006
30 - fixed an uninitialised variable based on analysis
31 and patch by Mark Martinec.
32
33 1.06 Tue Dec 6 00:56:05 CET 2005
34 - fix a number of int/long format errors in the encoding part and
35 fix some signed/unsigned char problems of unknown relevance,
36 reported by Jonas Smedegaard.
37 - new EXPERIMENTAL options OPT_RBUF and OPT_WBUF to set default
38 stdio buffer size for reading and writing files.
39
40 1.051 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005
41 - change of contact address.
42 - updated perl parts to GPLv2.
43
44 1.05 Fri Feb 25 22:50:27 CET 2005
45 - fix a (likely exploitable) segfault problem, (tracked down
46 and/or reported by Mark Martinec and Robert Lewis).
47
48 1.04 Tue Dec 28 15:08:44 CET 2004
49 - slightly improved subject filename extraction.
50 Also see the filename callback in the example-decoder.
51
52 1.03 Sun Apr 18 22:05:43 CEST 2004
53 - upgrade to uudeview-0.5.20, which supposedly fixes a few buffer
54 overflows. However, judging from the patch these vulnerabilities
55 were not present in the Convert-UUlib version (I might err, though,
56 documentation on the actual exploits is scarce).
57 As every uudeview update usually brings more instability than stability
58 I advise against using this version until it has proven itself
59 to be stable, or 1.02 is proven to contain the same buffer overflows.
60
61 1.02 Sun Apr 18 16:47:26 CEST 2004
62 - renamed crc32 to uulib_crc32, to work around yet another
63 shortcoming in this oh-so-outdated macosx.
64
65 1.01 Sun Feb 1 19:49:51 CET 2004
66 - make it compile with 5.005_03 (reported by Anton Berezin).
67 - very short files might not be detected because the header
68 parsing code might skip them.
69
70 1.0 Thu Nov 6 14:32:08 CET 2003
71 - change bracket policy to give priority to (x/y) over (x),
72 and use the last bracket found otherwise.
73 - part numbers at the end of the subject are now recognized.
74 - updated to uulib-0.5.19. Differences and bugfixes kept.
75
76 0.31 Wed Oct 16 01:22:34 CEST 2002
77 - no internal code changes.
78 - much better documentation, now considered "useful".
79 - removed the procedural interface.
80 - fought the wish to perl-5.8'ify and thus simplify the code :().
81 - stress-tested version 0.3 against 70000 data postings since sunday.
82
83 0.3 Sun Oct 13 15:12:11 CEST 2002
84 - updated to uulib 0.5.18. As expected, some but not all of my bugfixes
85 have went into uulib, so the number of differences decreased a bit
86 again.
87 - I found out that the library is being sold commercially by Frank
88 Pilhofer, disregarding the GPL and ignoring the rights of the people
89 who sent in patches :(
90 - vastly more useful documentation in the .pm file.
91 - much smaller distribution filesize ;)
92
93 0.213 Sat Jul 27 21:16:30 CEST 2002
94 - fixed another buffer overflow, also added a santity check to fgets.
95
96 0.212 Sat Apr 6 03:52:13 CEST 2002
97 - fix yEnc decoding support.
98 - new option OPT_DOTDOT, that makes uulib unescape dot-escaping.
99 - increased linelength to 1195.
100
101 0.211 Fri Apr 5 23:56:46 CEST 2002
102 - *sigh*. new version of uulib, new braindamaged buffer overflows
103 fixed. Diffs like "line length 256 => 300" should have
104 alerted me...
105
106 0.21 Sun Mar 31 22:06:05 CEST 2002
107 - bumped uulib from 0.5.15 to 0.5.17 (adds some yEnc support, YENC_ENCODED).
108 - source-renamed FP_*-symbols to _FP_* again, but still define them
109 to be FP_* in the object file.
110 - new callback: SetFileNameCallback (actually documented ;)
111
112 0.201 Sun Sep 16 03:43:38 CEST 2001
113 - fixed another segfault-bug in uulib, thanks to Lars Hecking who
114 provides all the test files ;)
115
116 0.2 Thu Jun 14 18:42:49 CEST 2001
117 - Frank Pilhofer is NOT dead! He is alive, kicking, and fixing
118 bugs in uulib now! Since his uulib and mine diverged quite
119 a bit I am still in the process of merging his bugfixes
120 into my version. So be aware that this might introduce new
121 instabilities...
122 - merged uulib-0.5.15
123 - optimize decode_file to not copy the file contents when a rename
124 succeeds (TMPDIR same disk as destination).
125 - updated documentation.
126
127 0.111 Fri May 4 22:29:09 CEST 2001
128 - heuristic to decode microsoft-rfc822-headers (microsoft uses
129 '\' as path seperator which is also the rfc822 quote character.
130 of course they could have quoted it, but it's microsoft, so
131 only the devil knows how they try to parse mime (they obviously
132 haven't read the standard AGAIN). in case you wonder, this fixes
133 the "c:my_documentssend.doc" "filename" problem.
134
135 0.11 Sun Jul 16 22:42:57 CEST 2000
136 - fixed a bug in the file callback.
137
138 0.10 Tue May 2 03:31:09 CEST 2000
139 - fixed one very longstanding bug that might have been the cause
140 for the many mysterious segmentation faults. Hopefully.
141 - improved documentation to the point that it slowly becomes useful
142 as a (very quick) reference.
143
144 0.07 Wed Nov 24 18:45:23 CET 1999
145 - removed END { CleanUp } from UUlib.pm, perl is too
146 buggy to rely on this in the face of popen etc..
147
148 0.06 Thu Jul 29 22:48:18 CEST 1999
149 - Thierry Bezecourt had the very reasonable idea to include
150 the example source in the manpage.
151
152 0.05 Mon May 24 11:37:25 CEST 1999
153 - LoadFile returns number of parts loaded.
154
155 0.04 Mon May 10 22:02:31 CEST 1999
156 - fixed a couple of portability problems.
157 - UUEncodeToStream had a wrong definition.
158 - added primitive testsuite.
159 - added README.
160
161 0.03 Sat May 8 22:40:01 CEST 1999
162 - renamed it to Convert::UUlib.
163
164 0.02 Fri May 7 01:26:19 CEST 1999
165 - function names exportable (use :all-tag).
166 - made uulist-related functions methods.
167 - the first fix from cpan-tester. *sigh* you people save the
168 world, continuously.
169
170 0.01 Thu May 6 14:30:44 1999
171 - original version; created by h2xs 1.19
