1 Possible compatibility problems with earlier versions marked with '*'.
5 Fixed bug in ZOOM connect that occurred on OpenBSD (maybe others). Patch
8 Fixed bug in zget for parameter ExtendedServicesResponse.
14 Added PQF feature: '@attr type=value' may be written as '@type=value'.
16 Client displays USR.1:SearchResult-1 (hits per term).
18 Additional Search Info for search in Generic Frontend Server.
20 Fixed CCL parsing of "field=s".
22 WIN32 installer - using the excellent NSIS software from nullsoft.
24 Fixed CCL parsing of "field = - <number>".
26 Added function yaz_marc_decode that decodes MARC for line mode
27 display or XML (similar to that used by JZKit).
29 Fixed BER decoding of OPTIONAL CHOICE. The bug didn't affect the
30 Z39.50. But ISO/ILL was, however.
32 Added patch by Rustam T. Usmanov that implements Z39.50 duplicate
33 detection service (Z39.50-1995 Amendment 2) and Language Negotiation (3).

40 New YAZ client features: Command completion and new commands:
41 push_command, set_apdufile, set_marcdump, set_cclfields, register_oid.
42 Code provided by Jacob Poulsen.
44 New call oid_trav, that visits all registered OIDs via callback.
46 Function ZOOM_record_get now returns const char pointer rather than
47 void pointer. It saves a lot of type casts.
49 For YAZ client, command "auth" now allows you to set authentication
50 in IdPass style. It is enabled when three tokens are given - order
51 is user, group and password.
53 Fix memory leaks in MARC record handling for ZOOM.
55 New option for YAZ client, -k <kilobytes> that sets
56 maximum record size. Similar to -k option for generic frontend
59 More fixes for scan. Non-zero stepSize handled. OID's fixes.
61 Prefix query parser reports "fail" when bad attribute set is given.
63 Fix in MARC decoder. Proximity logging. Fix for attribute set
64 in scan handler for server. Patches by Shigeru Ishida.
66 SSL/COMSTACK updates. cs_rcvconnect completes SSL handshake. ZOOM
69 Configure option --with-openssl=<dir> now works when a directory is
70 specified. Patch provided by Morten Bøgeskov.
72 New option for YAZ client, -u <auth>, that sets authentication.
74 ZOOM fix: error information was sometimes "missing", since error
75 was cleared/reset too when it shouldn't.
77 ZOOM_record_get returns ISO2709 buffer when "raw" is given.
81 Scan for ZOOM API. New object ZOOM_scanset. New functions
82 ZOOM_connection_scan, ZOOM_scanset_size, ZOOM_scanset_term and
85 New ZOOM function, ZOOM_connection_last_event, that returns type
86 of last event (such as "receive data", "send data", "apdu received",
89 New ZOOM option, schema, that specifies shema OID for retrieval.
91 New CCL feature. Qualifiers can be aliases for one or more
92 other qualifiers (if more than one is given, OR is used).
94 ZOOM uses named result sets if target supports it.
96 Two new YAZ client commands: . (dot, which sources a script of YAZ
97 client commands), and ! (to execute shell command.). Implemented
100 Working on Debian packages.
104 YAZ client enables named result sets only if target supports it.
106 *** ZOOM. Prefix for ZOOM definitions changed from Z3950_ to ZOOM_.
108 * ZOOM. Removed Z3950_connection_host. Use Z3950_connection_option_get
109 with key="host" to get same result.
111 * ZOOM. Added Z3950_record_clone and removed Z3950_resultset_get.
112 Function Z3950_resultset_record(s) returns references to records
113 "owned" by resultset. To become owner use Z3950_record_clone.
115 Function z_ext_record handles Extended Services. Thanks to
120 CCL Parser fix: ignore token comma when dealing with and-lists.
122 Documentation updates for COMSTACK.
124 * ZOOM changes. Query object renamed from Z3950_search to Z3950_query.
125 Changed prototype Z3950_records. For some functions, int parameters
126 were changed to size_t.
128 TCP/IP COMSTACK no longer uses getprotobyname to avoid memory leak
131 New MARC decode/display function, marc_display_exl, which properly rejects
132 non-ISO2709 records. YAZ client uses it.
136 Fix bug: local attribute set wasn't set correctly in PQF strings.
140 * Old Z39.50 codecs no longer supported.
142 Added ZOOM C binding. See http://zoom.z3950.org/
144 Renamed states for COMSTACKs to avoid confusion with events.
146 Implemented cs_look and proper cs_rcvconnect.
148 Fixed COMSTACK error that occurred on HPUX. Fix by Giannis Kosmas.
150 Configure detects POSIX threads on OpenBSD.
152 When sort flag 'i' was specified in yaz-client the caseSensitivy flag
153 was set to a wrong value. Thanks to Robert Sanderson for reporting this.
155 When error is returned from present handler, non-surrogate diagnostic
156 is returned in present response (and fetch handler is no longer called).
158 * Minor adjustments to pquery parser (PQF). Token characters may be
159 escaped by using backslash (C-style).
161 PQF parser allows string attribute values to be specified. For @attr,
162 non-numeric characters after the equal-sign are treated as strings
163 (e.g. @attr 9=title).
165 CCL trunction character may be defined (@truncation in file)
167 * function zget_ExtendedServicesRequest sets waitAction to
168 waitIfPossible (was wait).
170 Added cs_set_blocking to set change blocking mode of a COMSTACK. Thanks
173 CCL operator names may be set in field definition files (CCL_bibset).
174 See ccl/bib1 for an example.
176 Fixes in ASN.1 compiler for C++ compatibility.
178 * Renamed members "and" and "or" in struct Z_Operator to "op_and"
179 and "op_or" to avoid conflict with C++.
181 Fixed problem with GNU readline detection on Redhat 7.0.
183 Added step-size for Scan backend handler.
185 Fixed bug that made the frontend server crash when no attribute
186 set was specified for scan.
188 Front-end server automatically switches to original working directory
189 when installed as an NT service. Previously -w had to be specified to
192 Added extended attributes for retrieval module (data1), so that data1
193 records carry d1_readXML/SGML attributes. d1_read also supports
194 null-data rules ( <tag/>)
196 On UNIX when POSIX threads are available, a separate library libyazthread
197 is created. Programmers should link with that library and the yaz library
198 when using threads. The reason for the split was that some applications
199 on Linux, such as Apache, doesn't work well when using shared objects that
202 Added SSL support for the COMSTACK. You start yaz-client and yaz-ztest
203 (or any frontend server) in SSL mode by specifying ssl: followed by
204 address. Only tested on UNIX.
206 Added feature for CCL module. Virtual structure s=al or s=ol generates
207 and-list and or-list respectively instead of phrase search.
211 * Added prefix "yaz_" for the functions log_init.., log_file.. and
212 log_mask_str. This was done to avoid name conflicts with other libraries
213 (such as other PHP extensions).
215 Added raw OID member for preferred record syntax (request_format_raw)
216 and returned record syntax (output_format_raw) for backend fetch method.
218 Config file yaz-config now accepts options so that it returns specific
219 compile settings, etc. Thanks to Morten Bøgeskov <morten@bogeskov.dk>
221 Shared library support for UNIX using GNU libtool.
223 * Modified backend interface. Request/Response struct's replaced by
224 one read/write C struct. For example bend_fetchrequest and
225 bend_fetchresult have been replaced by single bend_fetch_rr struct.
226 Every handler - even search has to be registered in bend_init
227 handler. This means that the YAZ library no longer refers to
228 external functions and it makes it possible to make the whole
229 thing a single DLL/SO.
231 Added Segment handler for backend server.
233 Added Zmbol/Zebra administrative functions to YAZ client.
235 Threaded frontend server on UNIX (when POSIX Threads are available).
236 Starting the server with option -T enables multi-threading.
240 Added configure option --enable-comp/disable-comp to control use
241 of YAZ ASN.1 compiler. Use --disable-comp to use the old *coders
242 located in sub directory asn.
244 YAZ ASN.1 compiler renamed to yaz-comp in sub directory. It's installed
245 in ${exec_prefix}/bin along with the other programs yaz-client and
248 GNU automake used to maintain makefiles.
252 Changed retrieval module so that we can load records with no abstract
253 syntax defined. Tagpaths in these records are fully composed of string
256 Implemented ISO ILL protocol. Refer to stuff in sub directory ill.
260 On UNIX, the generated makefile now supports a proper 'make install'.
261 The prefix can be set via GNU configure to set the install location
262 (default is /usr/local).
264 * YAZ programs client and ztest were renamed to yaz-client and
265 yaz-ztest to avoid conflicts when users install YAZ in "standard"
266 locations, such as /usr/bin,/usr/local/bin,etc.
268 * YAZ Header files were moved from include to include/yaz. YAZ Header
269 files are referred to as include <yaz/log.h> rather than <log.h>.
270 The YAZ include path (-I ..) is therefore the same as before. Programmers
271 should update their #include statements or use -Ipath/include/yaz
272 instead. The main motivation for doing this change is that YAZ header files
273 can be installed in "standard" locations /usr/include,/usr/local/include
274 without introducing conflicts, since ALL YAZ header files are stored
275 in subdirectory yaz (under /usr/include for example).
277 Compilation of YAZ for WIN32 is now handled by an nmake-style makefile
278 rather than project/workspace files. We switched because project files
279 are incompatible between Visual C++ 5 and 6. Refer to windows.txt for
282 Changed name of logging function, logf, to yaz_log, to prevent name
283 clash with some math-log functions. The YAZ header log.h defines logf
284 to yaz_log (#define) so there should be no incompatibilities by this
287 Added bend_start/bend_stop handlers for server. These handler are
288 called on start/stop of server. For windows they are called whenever
289 a service is started/stopped.
291 * YAZ now auto-generates decoders/encoders for the Z39.50 protocol using
292 a fairly small ASN.1 compiler written in Tcl. The compiler is located
293 in util/yc.tcl. The auto-generated C code structures are, in a few
294 cases, incompatible with the old decoders. There are differences in the
295 following C structures Z_DiagRec, Z_External, Z_SortRequest, Z_SortResponse,
296 Z_AttributesPlusTerm, Z_ProximityOperator, Z_DefaultDiagFormat.
297 The preprocessor variable ASN_COMPILED is defined when the compiled
298 ASN.1 is being used. Encoder/decoder routines as well as the Z39.50
299 protocol ASN.1 is located sub directory <tt>z39.50</tt>. If you
300 wish to use the old encoders/decoders you can specify --disable-yc
303 Assigned OID for old DB Update (VAL_DBUPDATE0). Updated YAZ compiled
304 version so that it supports both new - and old version of DB Update
306 * Added 'name' parameter to ODR encoder/decoder routines to facilitate
307 pretty ODR print. Updated whole Z39.50 encoder/decoder to reflect the
308 change. The name parameter can be set to 0 in which no name is specified
309 for the construction. The macros odr_implicit and odr_explicit sets name
310 parameter to zero for the construction involved. New macros
311 odr_implicit_tag and odr_explicit_tag are similar to the others,
312 except that a name parameter is added. For programmers' that don't use
313 ODR they probably only need to change the call to z_APDU and z_External.
315 Added access control facility by interfacing the TCP wrapper library.
316 YAZ automatically attempts to find the TCP wrapper Library (-lwrap) and
317 tcpd.h on Unix systems. For the server, option -d<daemon> specifies the
318 name of the daemon and enables the access control as specified in
319 hosts.allow/hosts.deny. Refer to man pages tcpd(8) and hosts_access(5).
321 Fixed memory leak in ccl_find_str and ccl_qual_rm. Thanks to Hans van
322 den Dool <H.M.vdnDool@kub.nl>.
324 Added reference ID parameter to most functions in server API - refer
325 to backend.h. Thanks to Hans van den Dool <H.M.vdnDool@kub.nl>.
327 Changed name of ccl library to libccl.a (was ccl.a).
329 Fixed bug in decoder for Explain (Category TargetInfo).
331 Added support for GNU readline in client. Thanks to Jacob Poulsen
332 <ja7@dbc.dk>. GNU configure attempts to detect if readline is available.
334 * CHANGED DEFINITION OF ES: UPDATE (INCLUDING THE OID) to reflect the
335 new definition from the ZIG. NOTE THIS IF YOU HAVE AN UPDATE
336 IMPLEMENTATION! This change was made to the development version before
337 the ZIG decided to retract the amendment. If any users MUST be
338 compatible with the original Update definition, PLEASE CONTACT US, and
339 we will include a separate definition corresponding to the old Update
340 ES. Note that because of the change to the ASN.1 of the
341 TaskPackageRecordStructure we cannot define a single structure that
342 will support both versions.
344 * Added const modifier to buffer parameter for some ODR/BER encoding
345 routines: ber_dectag, ber_declen, odp_more_chunks, completeBER,
346 completeWAIS, odr_dumpBER.
348 Fixed bug in client.c which caused a crash when a scanResponse didn't
349 contain positionOfTerm.
351 * Fixed inconsistency in the ScanResponse/ListEntries protocol. This
352 * will cause an error in a client if a non-YAZ target sends both a
353 * list of Scan entries and non-surrogate diagnostics.
355 Retrieval module enhancements. Tag sets may be typed in the reference
356 to it. From the .abs-file the "tagset" directive takes a third optional
357 integer type for the tag set referenced. From a .tag-file the "include"
358 directive takes a third optional type as well. The old "type" directive
359 in the tag set itself is still recognized but acts as the default type
362 Backend interface change. Individual Scan terms returned from bend_scan
363 may also be tagged as Surrogate Diagnostics. Refer to struct scan_entry
364 in include/backend.h.
366 Retrieval module enhancements. Multiple tag sets and attribute sets may
367 be specified in abstract syntax specs. Revised the error/warning for
368 logging messages reported by the retrieval module when reading the
371 Object Identifier system (oid_..) changed. The API is backwards
372 compatible but the oid-routines now allocates new OID's when needed.
373 Raw OID's may be specified in oid_getvalbyname.
375 YAZ now uses GNU configure to generate Makefile(s).
377 * Minor changes in some of the member names of DeleteResultSetRequest and
378 DeleteResultSetResponse. See include/proto.h.
380 * Changed some C definitions regarding EXPLAIN record syntax (prt-exp.h)
381 and added member 'languages' in TargetInfo (which was missing).
383 Changed the way attribute sets are handled in the retrieval
384 module. These are now cached, just like the abstract syntaxes
387 Changed YAZ so that it links with compiled ASN.1.
389 Added Explain-schema definitions and mapping routines. The following
390 Explain categories have been implemented: AttributeDetails,
391 AttributeSetInfo, DatabaseInfo, CategoryList and TargetInfo.
393 Fixed minor bug in Windows version of Server Library.
395 --- 1.4pl2+ 1998/4/17 (Released with Zebra)
397 Added Extended Services to server (backend.h). Thanks to Charles Woodfield.
399 Added EXTERNAL: UNIverse Resource Report (non-standard).
401 Implemened odr_enum and odr_set_of functions to handle ASN.1 types
402 ENUMERATED and SET OF.
404 * Added 'const' to some of the char pointer arguments for the
405 functions, data1_read_node, data1_getelementbytagname,
406 data1_insert_taggeddata, data1_getesetbyname, data1_getelementbyname,
409 Fixed bug in data1_insert_taggeddata - the last_child member of
410 parent wasn't initialised.
412 * Changed data1_read_record and data1_read_node so that the supplied
413 "SGML"-buffer is read-only. In particular the resulting data1 - tree
414 doesn't refer to any parts of the "SGML"-buffer.
416 Fixed bug in server library (Windows version of statserv_remove).
418 * Changed code so that it compiles as C++. The type definition
419 of Odr_fun which is a member of Odr_arm was changed. The result is,
420 that an explicit typecast is needed for the fun pointer when
421 using Odr_arm - as in:
422 {1, -1, -1, Z_IdAuthentication_idPass, (Odr_fun)z_IdPass},
424 Updated TagSet-G and -M definitions (tagsetm.tag and tagsetg.tag).
426 Implemented the new structured date and time definition as approved
427 by the ZIG. Added schemaId element to the specificTag in Espec-1
428 (also approved at the last ZIG). Thanks to RVDM.
430 Added some Object identifiers (RVDM).
432 Changed the Update Extended Service (RVDM).
434 Added command "refid" to client which specifies referenceId for
435 the following requests.
437 Implemented extended service handling for server. See ztest.c
438 for an example as well as backend.h. New handlers are registerd
441 * Changed interface for sort in server.
443 Added new members to statserv_options_block. It allows a server
444 to read options from another source than just the command line. Thanks
445 to Charles Woodfield.
447 * Changed definition of Z_Triple in file prt-grs.h - member boolean
448 renamed to zboolean. Some C++ compilers complained about the name.
450 Minor changes to gils.abs. Added index 's' (sort) on title
451 and date/time-last-modified.
455 Fixed bug in server library regarding inetd mode (-i). This bug
456 was introduced by release 1.4.
460 Added sort facility in client and backend server interface.
462 Fixed problem with dependencies in Makefile(s).
464 Fixed bugs for encoders/decoders of extended services and
467 Implemented sub-tree feature for schemas. Sub-trees are
468 referenced in *.abs-files. See explain.abs for an example
469 of the use of this feature.
471 Modified bib1.att; local attributes for ANY didn't include
472 ANY itself (only affects use of the retrieval module).
474 Fixed bug in plain SGML reader in function data1_read_node:
475 tags with prefix "var" was incorrectly interpreted as variants.
477 Added feature "sub-schemas" to enable references to - and definitions
478 of - group of elements.
480 * Removed member parent from type data1_element (in data1.h).
482 Implemented function odr_nullval() that returns the value of
485 * Removed member num_children from data1_node (in data1.h).
487 Made NT service interface part of the server library. The
488 function statserv_main uses the NT service when required and
489 calls the statserv_start / statserv_close routines.
491 Routine zget_SearchRequest and zget_PresentRequest fills
492 resultSetName/Id member with "default" instead of "Default".
494 Fixed memory leak in server. Request queue member wasn't freed.
496 Fixed nmem_exit so that memory is freed.
500 Revised the CCL parser utility to be thread safe.
502 Added function, oid_ent_to_oid, to replace the function
503 oid_getoidbyent, which is not thread safe.
505 * Added nmem_init and nmem_exit to initialize and release
506 NMEM resources. Function nmem_init should be called once in the
507 initial thread before NMEM/ODR is used. statserv.c and client.c
508 have been changed accordingly. The change was necessary to make
509 NMEM thread safe. The NMEM memory pool is shared amongst threads
510 in a process. Unix-based applications will still work fine without
513 Added NT Services interface for the the Z39.50 (statserv) Server.
514 Refer to the ztest.c source on the usage.
516 Windows 95/NT port using MSVC5.0. Project files are included in the
519 * Defined new 'global' handle for the retrieval (data1) system. The
520 new handled, data1_handle, describes the state of the data1 system.
521 This handle is passed as first argument to virtually all
522 data1 related routines. The functions data1_create and data1_destroy
523 creates and destroys a data1 handle respectively.
525 Added ODR encode stream member to all backend request structures
526 init, search, scan etc. This stream should be used to allocate all
527 memory used for the response when thread safe operation is needed.
529 Changed the comstack utility, cs_addstr, to be thread safe. The
530 returned hostname string returned by the function is now part the
533 Added comstack utility, cs_straddr, which replaces the tcpip_strtoaddr
534 function. The cs_straddr takes a COMSTACK handle as argument, so this
535 function must be used after cs_create and before bind/connect.
536 This function is thread safe.
538 Moved test server to 'ztest' directory - generic server code still
539 in 'server' directory.
541 Made prefix query (pquery.c) utility thread safe.
543 Added new function modifier YAZ_EXPORT to 'export' public DLL
544 functions when using windows (see include/yconfig.h).
546 Added definitions to the OID database (util/oid.c) (RVDM).
548 Added new BIB-1 diagnostic messages to the handler diagbib1_str.
550 Added call to ccl_rpn_delete in client program.
552 Added ODR argument to ccl_rpn_query and ccl_scan_query to provide
553 release of RPN structure.
555 Added support for C++, headers uses extern "C" for public definitions.
556 With input from RVDM.
558 In handling of SEQUENCE OF: Counter set to zero when SEQUENCE OF is absent.
559 Thanks to Ronald van der Meer (RVDM).
561 Added initializers (zget_ routines) for a number of PDUs. Thanks to RVDM.
563 Added support for private extensions to the OID database
564 (oid_setprivateoids()). Thanks to RVDM.
566 Added optional, physical ANY (key replication)
568 Fixed null-reference problem in GRS-1 output filter.
570 Proximity operator added to Prefix Query Format (PQF).
572 In test client command "base" accepts multiple databases.
574 Fixed bug in cs_close stack that caused trouble with WINSOCK.
578 Fixed tagging bug in ResourceReportResponse PDU encoder/decode.
580 Smallish bug-fixes in the new encoders/decoders (explain).
582 Bug fixed in DeleteRequest.
584 Fixed tagging bug of type 101 query in SearchRequest-Query PDU encoder/decoder.
586 Fixed tagging bug in ResourceReportResponse PDU encoder/decode.
588 Added SOIF syntax (using private OID for now) to retrieval module and client.
590 Added Update extended service.
592 Added SearchResult-1 additional info structure.
594 Added optional CCL (ISO8777) interpreter as separate module. Available
597 --- 1.2 1996/6/10 (1st anniversary release)
599 Added Summary record syntax. Lightly tested.
601 Added OPAC record syntax. Untested.
603 Added ResourceReport service encoders/decoders. Untested.
605 Fixed bug in z_Unit - wrong tagging on unitSystem.
607 Fixed bug in the DiagRecs decoder.
609 Added options for max PDU size and session timeout to frontend-server.
611 Added documentation of query-language parsers and other supporting utilities.
613 [frontend-server] Added Attribute set to the bend_scanrequest API.
615 [frontend-server] NextResultSetPosition was sometimes set incorrectly when
616 surrogate diagnostics were generated.
618 [retrieval] Allow multiple local values for attribute.
620 [retrieval] Allow multiple attributes per element in .abs files. index type.
622 [retrieval] Added Summary tagset, abstract syntax, and d1-node/ASN filter.
626 Minor changes, mostly specific to Zebra's requirements (retrieval)
630 Repaired bug in frontend server when running multiple listening
631 endpoints in dynamic mode.
633 z_External() now won't break if a known, ASN.1 value comes encapsulated
634 in an octet-string. The value will pass through unmodified in an Odr_oct.
636 Added a bit of code to the demo client to decode & display
637 ASN.1-structured records represented in the octet-aligned branch of
638 the EXTERNAL CHOICE. Thanks to CAS for prodding us to finally do this.
640 Added z_ext_getentbyref() to the ASN module. Doc updated.
642 * Completed the SCAN definition in the ASN module. This may break SCAN
643 code based on older YAZ-versions at compile-time. The fix is easy -
646 * Added 'displayTerm' and OtherInformation to the TermInfo structure
647 under the SCAN definition. Remember to initialize this, server-people.
649 Comstack should now support the WAIS protocol in TCP/IP mode. Note
650 that this does not extend to ODR and ASN.
652 Comstack allows insertion of established socket (primarily for
653 inetd-operation of servers). Doc updated.
655 Front-end server can now start from the inetd in TCP mode. Doc
662 Fixed small problem in SUTRS-filter. A newline was sometimes inserted before
663 the rank and record number.
665 Adjustments to the frontend server.
667 Fixed diagnostic BER dumper. It ignored the file argument.
671 Various changes to retrieval module.
673 Changed the union discriminators of the protocol files from enums to
674 ints paired with #defines.
676 *Changed oident.class to oident.oclass to avoid a reserved word in C++
679 *Changed operator in the RPN structure to 'roperator', again to avoid a
682 Fixed problems in Explain decoders/encoders.
686 Memory bug in log module fixed.
690 Occasional malloc() of 0 bytes fixed in d1_espec.c.
692 Bug in Explain DatabaseInfo module fixed.
694 Some '\r' snuck into one or two of the ret'l config tables. A curse on Windows.
698 The shift to v1.0 signals that we now consider the *core* functionality
699 of YAZ reasonably stable (the core being more or less equivalent to
700 Z39.50-1992). Some of the really nifty v3 stuff is still not heavily
701 tested (Explain not at all - though that will happen soonish).
703 Minor changes to code to support Windows port.
705 Various minor changes after we're getting to use GRS-1 & co. more.
707 Added Espec-1 format.
709 Added VisibleString field body type to GRS-1. It is illegal acc. to my copy
710 of the protocol and it cannot be selected when encoding (maps into 'string'
711 when decoding). Needed to talk to some servers.
713 Demo client can request simple element set names.
715 Added Diagnostic Format encoders/decoders.
717 Added simple Close handling to frontend server (no hooks for resource
718 reporting yet), and demonstration client.
720 Added cs_addrstr() command to COMSTACK to retrieve peer hostname/address.
724 Fixed bug in the frontend-server. The numberOfRecordsReturned field was
725 handled incorrectly when records were requested in the searchResponse. This
726 will only affect you if you use the frontend-server.
728 Added GRS-1 encoders/decoders to the service-level API. Lightly tested.
729 Test-client will ask for and print GRS1. Ztest will return dummy records
732 Added Explain encoders/decoders to the service-level API. Untested.
734 Added Extended Services: Item Order encoders and decoders to the Service-
735 level API. Untested. We could use a recent copy of the pertinent bits
736 of the ILL protocol to add those bits.
738 Added diagnostic format 1 encoders/decoders to the service-level API.
741 Moved pretty-printing of structure-wrappers ({..}) from odr_seq.c to
742 odr_cons.c, which causes a more correct output.
744 Fixed handling of searchRequest in frontend server. NextResultSetPosition
745 was always set to 0 when no records were requested in the searchRequest.
747 * Added better external-handling. This shouldn't harm old code that
748 *encodes* externals. It can break code that looks for a
749 'single-ASN1-type' representation, since those types that are known
750 are now decoded immediately. Look at the SUTRS sample code in
751 seshigh.c and client.c. Documentation updated.
753 Handling of structured records in bend_fetchresponse. Length -1 marks
754 structured record, type is deduced from format field.
757 Fairly quick maintenance release to add SUTRS support.
759 Fixed handling of SUTRS records in the demonstration client.
761 * Added format field to the bend_fetchrequest and bend_fetchresponce
762 structures of the backend API (frontend server). When the record is
763 returned, the value of the format field is mapped to an OID. The
764 value VAL_SUTRS will also cause a slightly different ASN.1 packaging
765 of the record. The special value VAL_NONE in the bend_request means
766 that no specific format was requested by the client. Documentation
767 updated accordingly. Test server (ztest) will return a fixed dummy
768 SUTRS record if your client requests SUTRS.
770 Documentation updated accordingly.
772 You can now set external libraries and RANLIB support in the top-level
776 First public release.
