Legend:

+ = done
......................................................................
Wishlist:
- Would handling of exceptional events on sockets add any benefit?
- Actually fix the FIXMEs in the code.
- Non-standard HTTP with SRV/_http._tcp.domain, A/domain?
- Use garbage collection for memory management?
As build-time option?
Keep the application in charge of it?
Anyone?
- Launch auxiliary queries to follow CNAME chains? I believe we
don't need to use extra queries for CNAME chains, because the
recursive name server is supposed to fetch the whole chain
for us. Not sure, though.
- Use round-trip times to better distribute load among recursive
name servers?
- Add an reverse-lookup layer to the raw resolver in order to
fetch IN PTR records across CNAME chains?
- Add a CNAME-aware layer to the raw resolver in order to
fetch arbitrary record types across CNAME chains?
- ruli_txt: Recognize rfc1035-quoting (section 5.1)
slash"\.".org
slash"\046".org
This will require a variable max-length for txt dst
decoding buffer.
Relatively hard at first.
- Use EDNS0 to support larger UDP segments.
- Special behavior (smtp, http, ...) under ruli_getaddrinfo().
- check packaging against Debian Library Packaging Guide:
http://www.netfort.gr.jp/~dancer/column/libpkg-guide/
-x-
Changes:
......................................................................
0.37
- New: Autoconf/automake/libtool support.
- Rgr: Regression test cases for special SRV behavior.
(SMTP, HTTP, ...)
- Rgr: Basic regression test cases for synchronous API.
- New: Add optional logging for RULI major events and/or errors.
- New: Permit the user to limit the number of concurrent queries
thus preventing accidental overload of the library.
- New: ruli_sync: Periodically (or on usage threshold)
reload config: /etc/resolv.conf.
- New: ruli_res: Periodically (or on usage threshold)
refresh config: nameserver list & search list.
......................................................................
0.36
+ Fix: Solaris 9 port.
......................................................................
0.35
+ New: Sample code for runtime detection (dlopen()) of libruli.so.
(see sample/run_getaddrinfo.c for example of runtime code)
......................................................................
0.34
+ New: Mikael Magnusson patch to allow CNAME in SRV targets.
+ Fix: Added 'rfc3484' resolver option to sample programs.
+ Fix: Safer sockaddr structure for recvfrom().
......................................................................
0.33
+ Fix: ruli_getaddrinfo: Mikael Magnusson patch to respect address
family specified in hints.
+ Fix: Support for RFC3484 - destination address selection.
+ New: SONAME increased to reflect ABI change.
......................................................................
0.32
+ Fix: Sort MX records by priority.
+ Fix: Sort addresses by family, delivering IPv6 first, if any.
+ Fix: ruli_http: Support for specific srv-based queries for http.
+ New: Binding for Lua language.
......................................................................
0.31
+ Cln: Minor clean-ups.
+ New: Perl module 0.02: namespace "Net::RULI".
+ New: Java native interface.
......................................................................
0.30
+ Fix: Compilation fix for gcc 3.4.
+ Fix: Better error code reporting for Guile extension.
+ Fix: Solaris port.
......................................................................
0.29
+ New: Guile extension.
......................................................................
0.28
+ Cln: Use ruli_host for all address lookups.
+ walk: + Use ruli_host for address lookups.
+ Major clean-up.
+ fall: + Use ruli_host for address lookups.
+ Major clean-up.
+ Fix: Increase SONAME due to ABI changes (changed struct's members).
API remains though.
......................................................................
0.27
+ Fix: Removed INSTALL_DIR from compiler/linker search path.
+ New: Resolver options.
+ uri_port
+ nowalk
+ nofall
+ New: ruli_host: CNAME-aware, family-agnostic, address lookup layer.
......................................................................
0.26
+ Fix: ruli_smtp: Perform extra "walk" queries for MX exchange which
has no corresponding address record in the additional section?
Shouldn't MX additional processing handle this for us in the
recursive resolver? It seems MX TTL > MX target TTL partially
defeats "MX additional processing", unfortunately. Thus we
actually need to to work-around this issue by issuing queries
for address records.
+ New: Symbol versioning in shared library.
+ Fix: Solaris port.
+ Fix: ruli_addr: Better IPv6 print helper.
+ Cln: Prefix internal non-static functions with '_'.
......................................................................
0.25
+ Fix: ruli_srv: Perform 2 separate queries for addresses (IN_AAAA,
IN_A), instead of a single IN_ANY query.
+ walk_query
+ fall_query
+ Fix: Debian compiler warning for m68k, powerpc, hppa.
......................................................................
0.24
+ New: IPv6 support: AAAA resource records.
+ Fix: Better portability for ruli_getaddrinfo().
......................................................................
0.23
+ Fix: Add IPv6 support for 'tools'.
+ Fix: Perl binding updated to new address-family-aware API.
+ Fix: PHP binding updated to new address-family-aware API.
+ Fix: Incorrect pointer arithmetic in ruli_getaddrinfo().
......................................................................
0.22
+ New: IPv6 support: PF_INET6 protocol family as transport.
+ New: Change fsm to use IPv6 UDP sockets. TCP is for free.
+ New: load IPv6 nameserver addresses.
+ New: API changed to support IPv6.
+ New: ruli_inet6_ntoa(): detect valid IPv6 address.
+ New: Added ruliwrap wrapper (from http://weinholt.se/hacks/)
as ruli_getaddrinfo().
......................................................................
0.21
+ Fix: 'class' replaced by 'qclass' to avoid clash with c++ keyword.
+ Cln: Better support for Debian packaging.
+ Cln: Better portability.
......................................................................
0.20
+ New: Example programs for the Perl module.
+ New: Minimal man pages for sample programs.
+ New: Debian binary package 'libruli-bin' for sample programs.
......................................................................

+ New: Return priority/weight values in high-level interfaces.
+ New: Non-standard SMTP with SRV/_smtp._tcp.domain, MX/domain,
A/domain.
......................................................................
0.15
+ Fix: Server round-robin scanning is reset for every suffix of the
search list.
+ Cln: More ISAAC name space clean-ups.
+ New: ruli_search: Simpler, higher-level API for SRV queries.
Previous RULI's standard SRV API (ruli_srv) seemed too
complex for simple queries with trivial behavior.
+ Fix: Sample tools have been using incorrect buffer sizes for
domain names in textual form. This limited the maximum
domain name length to 252 characters instead of 253.
+ New: Sample programs under 'sample' directory show how to
write SRV-aware applications.
+ Cln: ruli_sync based on ruli_search.
+ New: ruli_search: Higher-level API for easy resolver creation.
+ Fix: Regression errors.
......................................................................
0.14
+ ruli_txt: Clean-up label handling API: ruli_txt.
+ ruli_res: Implement search list.

'search'/'domain' clauses of /etc/resolv.conf.

......................................................................
0.13

+ Code clean-up.
+ Stricter compiler warnings.
+ Minor bugfix: ruli_srv_t.qdomain_len was not being initialized.
+ ruli_srv: Check owner match.
+ ruli_txt: Detect name compression loop.
......................................................................
0.10

+ Synchronization with HTML documentation.
+ syncsolver: Minor fix for stdin parsing.
......................................................................
0.9
+ Fixed assert() triggered by late UDP answers reaching
us when we have switched to another state due to timeout.
+ Better checks of function return results for ruli_list_new(),
ruli_list_parse(), ruli_list_push().
