3 session_shared: negotiate init sz parameters.
4 By default, session_shared will honor the paramters given by client.
5 An alternative, but not implemented, algorithm would be to only
6 re-use sessions with same sz parameters. This however, could reduce
7 re-use of sessions a lot. Hence this, simple algorithm instead. The
8 negotiation to a maximum sz values can be enabled by using
9 <init maximum-record-size="sz1" preferred-message-size="sz2"/>
10 in configuration. This will make session_shared send those values
11 to backends and use returned init values in negotaition to
12 client before session_shared.
14 session_shared: resolve result-set references.
15 The reference is substitued with the query for old set if database
16 match and query type is Type-1. If not the reference will issue a
19 sort filter: relays RecordComposition including elementSet in use for
22 http_client: better diagnostics
24 http_client: disables HTTP redirect handling by default.
25 It can be configured with max-redirects in configuration.
29 Fix loading of filters cql_rpn and sru_z3950 . Was broken by 1.3.57.
33 Make RouterChain and RouterXML part of public API (libmetaproxy).
35 http_client: honor X-Metaproxy-Proxy as an alternative to
36 the "proxy" configuration. Allows proxy to be set per HTTP request.
38 sru_z3950: For SRU requests recognize x-client prefixes as a way
39 to ingest "database parameters".. The suffix of x-client- serves
40 as database argument name. Multiple may be given. For example:
41 http://path/db/?operation=searchRetrieve&x-client-user=a&x-client-password=b
42 is turned into Z39.50 database
47 New filter present_chunk. This filter allows splitting of present requests into smaller chunks.
49 New filter sd_remove, which replaces surrogate diagnostics with
50 SUTRS records. This filter tries to deal with clients that breaks
51 when receiving surrogate diagnostics.
53 new filter http_client. Same role as z3950_client, but just for
54 HTTP. Allows Metaproxy to operate as a HTTP proxy.
56 New filter http_rewrite1, which serves as purpose on how to rewrite
57 HTTP content with Metaproxy.
59 Use libboost-system if available, because newer versions of libboost-threads
60 requires libboost-system.
62 Allow frontend_net to serve SSL/HTTPS, because we can specify a server
67 zoom: Torus setting: authenticationMode which may hold values "basic"
72 configure: check for Libxslt support in YAZ and rely on definitions
73 from yaz-config, rather than doing own xslt/xml2 checks.
75 Allow timestamp format for log lines to be given with option -m
76 for metaproxy. Similar to yaz-ztest/GFS option -m.
78 Document log category 'line' for log filter.
80 Solr configuration example in etc/config-solr.xml
82 multi: do not mess with request package. For scan and search,
83 database-names were modified and the request package was left with
84 dangling pointers that caused a log filter to fail (request package
85 inspected after multi was invoked).
87 Documentation: fix id of metaproxy-config ref .
89 Documentation: update for USEMARCON support.
93 record_transform: allow OPACXML to OPAC conversion
95 zoom: document content-proxy
97 zoom: document db parm content-{user,password}, torus_url. Also
98 <torus auth_url="..> which makes zoom operate in authenticated mode
101 --- 1.3.52 2012/11/30
103 zoom: fix http://-check. SRU search broken in 1.3.51.
105 --- 1.3.51 2012/11/15
107 zoom: only append http:// for SRU if not already given . Makes it
108 possible to use https-URLs.
110 Use yazpp 1.4 or later due to new ABI.
112 frontend_net: allow max package size to be specified. Controlled by
113 attribute 'max_recv_bytes' of element 'port'.
115 --- 1.3.50 2012/10/29
117 For most generated diagnostics by filters, typically temporary
118 system error, augment addinfo message with filter name.
120 Add support for CentOS 6 packages.
122 sru_z3950: interpret Z39.50 diagnostics part of Init Response.
124 Add man page for metaproxy-config.
126 --- 1.3.49 2012/10/18
128 zoom: new config element passthru. This defines an element set that is
129 passed verbatim to the backend in pz2 mode.
131 auth_simple: allow both idPass and open auth. Also fix SEGV that could
134 --- 1.3.48 2012/10/08
136 z3950_client: fix string handling for init diagnostics in the case where
139 query_rewrite: no charset conversion for error queries. Avoid performing
140 charset conversion for query conversion errors. The resulting Type-1
141 query is invalid in this case.
143 --- 1.3.47 2012/10/04
145 For graceful stop (SIGUSR1), metaproxy will kill children processes.
147 Log when metaproxy is invoked in test mode (-t).
149 Log PID for each log message.
151 multi: combine both NSDs and multiple NSDs into one (diagnostics).
153 z3950_client: fixup multiple NSD's too. Like surrogate diagnostics,
154 a (backend=target) is appended for each diagnostic so that can be
155 determined the origin of error.
157 multi: hideerrors also in use for present response.
159 Solr example in zoom man page.
161 Fix typo in query_rewrite config example.
163 Log at least first non surrogate diagnostic. Instead of
164 "Z_Records_multipleNSD"
166 multi: Fix check for opt Records in present response. A SEGV could occur
167 if a target did not return records and no diagnostics.
169 --- 1.3.46 2012/09/24
171 Yet another fix for graceful stop.
173 --- 1.3.45 2012/09/12
175 sru_z3950: relay surrogate diagnostics.
177 --- 1.3.44 2012/09/10
179 zoom: Honor extraArgs, strip # in zurl.
181 multi: fix SEGV for scan. Reported by Rustam T. Usmanov.
183 zoom: url_recipe allow %{var[reg]} substitutions.
184 It's like ${var[reg]} but does URI component encoding as well.
186 --- 1.3.43 2012/08/22
188 RPM/Deb: require yazpp 1.3.2, because it fixes a missing close of
189 non-keepalive HTTP sessions.
191 http_file: allow zero size files (bug fix)
193 Fix zoom schema: auth_url is optional
195 --- 1.3.42 2012/08/20
197 zoom: fix un-init memory (could result in SEGV at session close)
199 frontend_net: handle X-Forwarded-For. This is stored in package.origin()
200 and may be used in filters as usual.
202 zoom: authentication via Torus lookup
203 Enabled by new configuration setting: auth_url . If this is defined,
204 the zoom module will contact Torus for auth/IP lookup and that will
205 define realm to be used in session.
207 --- 1.3.41 2012/08/10
209 virt_db: Fix database name - first character we removed by mistake.
210 Bug introduced in 1.3.40.
212 --- 1.3.40 2012/08/06
214 virt_db: Don't use "unix path" as database for Unix sockets.
216 --- 1.3.39 2012/08/02
218 z3950_client: Don't tamper with / in zurl - fixes problems
219 using Unix sockets for backends.
221 session_shared: fix integer overflow problem with hit count.
223 session_shared: avoid long usage of cached queries.
225 zoom: New database argument , torus_url to set URL of Torus
226 record to be fetched.
228 --- 1.3.38 2012/07/04
230 Fixes for 'metaproxy reload' for RPM/Debian packages.
232 zoom: Allow rpn2cql conversion to be augmented with a properties file.
233 Element rpn2cql can be specified per-target for the zoom filter.
235 log: New category "line" which is a single-line log message with
236 most important parts of a HTTP/Z39.50 request/response.
238 --- 1.3.37 2012/06/01
240 frontend_net: add facility to report live statistics about response
241 times and current thread usage. The report is an XML document
242 and is triggered for a specific URL path. This is set by <stat-req>
243 in the configuration of frontend_net. By default this report is
244 disabled (same as empty value for <stat-req>).
246 Fix reload problem in init.d script for RPM/Debian.
247 The '/etc/init.d/metaproxy reload' in some cases would stop but not
248 start metaproxy - effectively stopping the service.
250 Don't display start log message when config testing (-t).
252 zoom: avoid CCL message limit of 1K in ZOOM filter.
254 --- 1.3.36 2012/05/10
256 metaproxy init script reacts to reload which does graceful stop +
257 start and is used by logrorate script.
259 --- 1.3.35 2012/05/09
261 Fixes for Windows compilation.
263 Metaproxy daemon reacts to SIGUSR1 in which case it will leave
264 existing sessions running but terminate the monitor process that is
265 used in keepalive mode.
267 Change start log message to 'metaproxy start'. Was 'Metaproxy start'
268 before. Consistent with 'metaproxy stop' message.
270 zoom: document zoom's proxy_timeout
272 z3950_client: fixup addinfo for init response
274 virt_db: return other diagnostic if init is rejected. Diagnostic 236:
275 "Access to specified database denied" is returned, but only if init
276 response from backend does not carry diagnostics already.
278 multi: relays user info for first rejected target. The other-information
279 field for init response for first rejected target is in common init
280 response. This ensures that some backend init diagnostics are returned to
283 --- 1.3.34 2012/04/25
285 frontend_log: extend logging (when message is given in config).
287 --- 1.3.33 2012/04/25
289 zoom: Fix check for proxy. Use diagnostic 1074 for proxy failures.
291 --- 1.3.32 2012/04/24
293 sru_z3950 filter passes through incoming Z39.50 requests again. Was
294 not handled by mistake in Metaproxy versions 1.3.29, 1.3.30 and 1.3.31.
296 --- 1.3.31 2012/04/24
298 zoom: fixes for retry/proxy failover logic. More logging.
300 --- 1.3.30 2012/04/23
302 zoom: return addinfo="proxy failure" for proxy failures. This also
303 changes the scheme for dealing with proxies a bit. zoom now always
304 do proxy check, even if there's no failover. Fortunately, that's not
307 zoom: Init rejected wo diagnostics maps to Bib-1:1014.
308 Bib-1 1014, "Init/AC: Authentication System error", seems pretty
309 generic. We don't know why the init would fail; IP, user, block IP, etc.
310 sru_z3950 filter maps this to SRU diagnostic 3: "Authentication error".
312 zoom: guess if invalid SRU response was an auth failure
314 session_shared: disable session retry by default . Can be enabled by
315 restart="true" in resultset section.
317 --- 1.3.29 2012/04/18
319 zoom: may read cf-proxy's config settings.
320 This reduces manual configuration of the content proxy server host.
321 The ZOOM module will use the old style session.proxyhost if "server"
322 is given (deprecated) and use the new style proxyhost/session if
323 "config_file" is in use.
325 frontend_net: remove incoming requests that can not be handled
326 Requests in queue for filter frontend_net are removed if client
327 closes connection for the session and request is not yet handled.
329 sru_z3950: serialize requests. This is to ensure that pipelined
330 HTTP requests are handled properly.
332 --- 1.3.28 2012/04/04
334 New class, wrbuf, that wraps YAZ' WRBUF.
336 --- 1.3.27 2012/03/30
338 Metaproxy daemon is now running as user "metaproxy". This user is
339 managed by package maintainer scripts. The user information is stored
340 in /etc/metaproxy/metaproxy.user .
342 --- 1.3.26 2012/03/20
344 New filter, sort, that allows sorting of XML records via Z39.50
347 Filter record_transform: USEMarcon support. For example:
348 <retrieval syntax="usmarc">
349 <backend syntax="unimarc" name="F">
350 <usemarcon stage1="/etc/usemarcon/uni2us/uni2us.ini"/>
354 Filter multi: empty route pattern uses route as default.
356 <target route="z3950.indexdata.com">z3950.indexdata.com</route>
357 may use the shorter notation
358 <target route="z3950.indexdata.com"/>
360 Filter query_rewrite: use config path to locate XSLT.
362 Filter frontend_net: log statistics.
363 If a custom message element in frontend_net configuration it makes
364 the frontend_net filter produce a log entry whenever an operation
365 is completed. The log is always written using yaz_log with the
366 custom message given, the package ID (session ID) , the time
367 the operation has been active (end-to-end) , the threads currently
368 active/total and the size of the request input/output queues.
370 query_rewrite: charset conversion of query terms.
371 This is an optional feature. Enabled by element <charset> in
372 configuration with attribute 'from' and 'to' that specifies
373 from/to encodings. The default 'from' encoding is UTF-8.
375 Filter record_transform: honor piggyback searches.
377 Filter zoom: re-connect when database is reused.
378 Re-connect is necessary if a connection is lost or a timeout occurs.
379 If not, we'll be seeing zero hits, when we shouldn't.
381 --- 1.3.25 2012/02/29
383 zoom: Change scheme for dealing with content proxy URLs. The module
384 now has its own common XSL transform that is enabled by record_xsl
385 attribute in the configuration. This XSL gets parameter cproxyhost
386 that holds the host for the content proxy session . The genearted-url
387 is created only if urlRecipe is enabled. In previous version default
388 value of urlRecipe was ${md-electronic-url}; it is now empty and
389 disabled by default. Also generated-url no longer includes the content
390 proxy host. Content proxying URLs is supposed to the handle in the record_xsl
393 zoom: new setting timeout that specifies timeout for outgoing Z39.50/SRU
394 connections. Default value is 40 (seconds).
396 zoom: tune CCL to Z39.50 diagnostics mapping. Throw Bib-1: 108
397 "Malformed query" for syntax errors and related ones; throw
398 Bib-1: 3 "Unsupported search" for everything else. Details from
399 the CCL parser is provided as additional-info.
401 multi: new setting hideerrors that makes multi only relay diagnostics
402 to a client if all backends fail.
404 --- 1.3.24 2012/02/23
406 zoom: empty ccl_map field-mappings disables CCL map.
408 zoom: fix Explain search that could return error if session was
411 --- 1.3.23 2012/02/10
413 zoom: returns Explain records for database IR-Explain---1. The
414 target profile records are converted to Explain records via XSLT.
416 session_shared: make error recovery configurable. Whether a search
417 is restarted on errors or not, is configurable by attribute "restart"
418 in element "resultset" in configuration.
420 session_shared: only relay init for first request. session_shared, for
421 each backend class, now only relays first init request (rather than all).
422 The module only needs to save init response info once. This avoids the
423 need to check for session max.
425 --- 1.3.22 2012/02/02
427 zoom: fix memory leaks.
429 session_shared: maximum number of sessons is configurable. Default
430 value is 100. Result-sets for backends without named result sets are
431 only re-used if databases is identical for a search. This is under the
432 assumption that performance may suffer for those backends when
433 changing the database for each search.
435 multi: combines diagnostics from all backends. All diagnostics from
436 backends are combined into multiple non-surrogate diagnostics; rather
437 than just one diagnostic from first backend.
439 --- 1.3.21 2011/12/27
441 zoom: relay realm to cproxy parameter file.
443 Configuration: Allow filter collection element inside route. This
444 makes it possible to include multiple filters at once.
446 zoom: nocproxy also disables urlRecipe.
448 --- 1.3.20 2011/12/21
450 zoom: return diagnostic if CQL sortby conv fails. Diagnostic Bib-1 214
451 "Illegal sort relation" is returned. Gets translated to SRU diagnostic
452 90: "Unsupported direction value".
454 zoom: honor database argument nocproxy. This disables creating a content
455 connector session (for non-CF targets, usually) and also relays nocproxy
456 as database argument to a CF target.
458 --- 1.3.19 2011/12/16
460 zoom: Multiple proxy hosts may be given for proxy rich database
461 parameter. List is comma separated.
463 http_file: decodes URI paths properly. Does not return 404: not found
464 if no prefix are matches. Instead packages are passed on.
466 --- 1.3.18 2011/12/08
468 zoom: content-{user,password,proxy} are passed on to content proxy
469 system and takes precedence over user,password,proxy .
471 sru_z3950: SRU extra argument x-log-enable=1 enables a search response
472 with a log element including log material from children filters. At
473 this point, only the zoom filter uses this log facility. It will
474 eventually be used by other filters as well. In particular it might be
475 useful for this feature to track all filters in used during a search.
477 zoom: for x-log-enable=1, APDUs sent by ZOOM C, records as received
478 and queries as they are manipulated are logged.
480 zoom: extend addinfo with native diagnostics. Diagnostics as received
481 by ZOOM C are put into addinfo - including ZOOM, HTTP, SRU and Bib-1
482 diagnostics. This indicates both a backend diagnostic and the original
485 zoom: default urlRecipe value is ${md-electronic-url}
487 zoom: target profile setting sruVersion is recognized.
489 --- 1.3.17 2011/11/17
491 zoom: log target profile record fetched (AKA Torus).
493 --- 1.3.16 2011/11/17
495 Change target profile parameter CfSubDb to CfSubDB.
497 --- 1.3.15 2011/11/12
499 zoom: bug fix: realm was relayed to CF targets by mistake (realm only
500 makes sense to the zoom module itself).
502 --- 1.3.14 2011/11/11
504 zoom: realm may be given as part of database.
506 --- 1.3.13 2011/10/26
508 Fix Origin class assigment method; was removd by mistake in 1.3.12.
510 --- 1.3.12 2011/10/26
512 zoom: database args x-name=value are passed through to backend database.
514 SRU filter: user may specify session ID that is passed to log entries
515 that follows. It is specified by using x-session-id in the SRU arguments.
517 zoom: fix null pointer reference which would occur for bad url parameter
518 inside "torus" or if url was not given.
520 --- 1.3.11 2011/09/09
521 Fix bug in filter session_shared where sessions would not expire
522 properly (session ttl). This in turn could make the target close the
523 connection before expected and session_shared would return diagnostic
524 2: system temporarily available.
526 --- 1.3.10 2011/09/09
528 zoom: new target profile setting: sortmap_field. If sortmap_field is given
529 the field is mapped to the value for the sortmap. Values not matching
530 sortmap_field are passed verbatim.
532 zoom: new target profile setting: sortStrategy. One of: "z3950", "type7",
533 "cql", "sru11" or "embed". The "embed" chooses type-7 or CQL sortby
534 depending on whether RPN or CQL is actually sent to the target.
538 zoom: urlRecipe result is stored in <pz:metadata type="generated-url">.
540 zoom: For content proxy authentication is stored in param name
541 "auth", instead of "authentication".
545 zoom: relay schema in SRU mode. Previously recordSchema was not affected
550 zoom: new target profile element literalTransform that holds XSLT
551 (encoded as string) for target. Only if present and non-zero length it is
552 considered present. This takes precedence over transform.
554 Don't rely on trang anymore for Git checkout builds. Configuration in etc
555 will only be properly validated if trang is available. From now on only
556 relax NC files are bundled with the source dist.
558 Updates to check for Boost unit test (autoconf stuff). On MacOSX this
559 component was not detected when it should be.
563 z3950_client: mark non-surrogate diagnostics from backend.
565 zoom: a proxy may be specified for HTTP fetch of target profiles.
569 Honor piggyback. Makes some SRU targets behave that insist on
570 maximumRecords > 0, but also increases performance.
574 Fix dlpath in installed metaproxy.xml for RPM/Deb package. The
575 file was not update for libdir/metaproxy4 in version 1.3.2.
579 Change location of Metaproxy modules from libdir/metaproxy to
580 libdir/metaproxy4. Directory libdir/metaproxy is also owned by
581 libmetaproxy3 and, thus, should not be used by libmetaproxy4.
583 New facility to dump APDUs from zoom filter. Enabled by
584 <log apdu="true"/> in the zoom filter configuation.
586 zoom filter bug fix: SRU diagnostics received from backend was
587 not properly converted to Bib-1 diagnostics.
589 Package metaproxy depends on libmetaproxy4, same version.
593 zoom: fix a bug WRT passing authentication parameters to backends.
597 Fixes for windows Makefile.
599 --- 1.2.10 2011/07/25
601 Change major version of metaproxy library from 3 to 4. This in turn
602 makes new package names for Debian and RPM.
606 zoom: enable marc-8 encoding by default for usmarc and opac (in pz2
609 zoom: configurable element sets for record transforms.
611 zoom: the target profile based transform is specified by element_transform
612 in element torus of of the ZOOM filter configuration ; default value
613 is "pz2". Target profile based retrieval is specified by element_raw
614 in configuration. It will perform same steps, but omit the XSL transform.
615 Default value is "raw".
617 zoom: element set is omitted if not set in profile. But only if pz2
618 transform is in effect. Previously the default element set was to "F".
620 zoom: For non-CF targets database arguments are parsed. User may supply
621 db,user=myuser&password=mypass for non-CF targets. These values override
622 what's given the authentication from the target profile.
624 session_shared: fix reference to freed memory. Would occur if a search
625 response had non-surrogate diagnostics.
629 Route may be given for each port in frontend_net.
633 Documentation for zoom filter. Local target profiles may be specified.
635 Fixes for zoom filter.
639 First version with zoom filter.
643 Filter z3950_client may be configured to always send a close APDU
644 to backend target when connection/session is closed. This will only
645 happen if close APDU is not already sent. Enabled by configuration
646 for z3950_client (force_close).
648 Filter virt_db and multi: relay close APDU.
650 Filter virt_db and multi: relay init size parameters
651 preferredMessageSize and maximumRecordSize.
653 Filter sru_z3950: increase init sz parameters from 1MB to 10 MB.
657 RPM package for Metaproxy works for both SLES11 and Centos 5.5.
659 metaproxy-config: exec_prefix, libdir, includedir. Use these variables
660 as determined by configure.
662 RPM: Release includes 'indexdata' name. Use indexdata in release name so
663 this package can be distinguished from other vendors.
667 Fix filter multi: relay idAuthentication parameters.
671 Add metaproxy-config for returning compiler flags, libraries.
675 Fix --with-boost=PREFIX .
679 session_shared: fix use of maintenance thread.
681 Introduce 'start' method for filters and routers. It gets called after
682 configure and after fork, but before processing. This changes API -
683 from libmetaproxy2 to libmetaproxy3.
687 session_shared: ensure backend session is closed if init rejected
690 z3950_client: fix NULL ptr reference that could occur if two clients
691 connected concurrently and if max-sockets was in effect.
695 Fix bug 3497 - Metaproxy unstable while stopping.
697 Fix bug 3495 - SEGV in SRU filter.
701 Filter multi throws diagnostic 'Present Out of Range' when
702 appropriate - rather than returning 0 records.
704 Filter virt_db: fix bad result reuse. Could happen if a result
705 was overriden and a backend did not supported named result sets.
709 Filter log: category access logs diagnostics even if searchStatus
710 or presentStatus is 'success'.
714 The SRU to Z39.50 filter does repeated Z39.50 present requests
715 to fetch all records. Needed when a Z39.50 server returns partial
716 results (due to message size limits).
720 Metaproxy now kills all child processes that are spawned by
721 modules (in case of fork, exec).
725 Debian package now installs /etc/metaproxy/metaproxy.xml which
726 includes all XML files /etc/metaproxy/filters-enabled .
727 The include facility uses YAZ' yaz_xml_include_simple (YAZ 4.0.1).
731 Package based on YAZ version 4 and YAZ++ 1.2.0. It now includes a
732 development package to facilitate 3rd party Metaproxy modules.
734 --- 1.0.23 2010/01/04
736 Filter virt_db: Close backend filter session when Init rejected is received
737 from it (in which case it's not really closed yet). This will ensure we don't
738 run out of resources such as FDs in this case.
740 sru_z3950 filter: Accept any database (including those not listed).
742 --- 1.0.22 2009/12/03
744 Prepare for 64-bit YAZ. yazproxy will still work with YAZ++ 1.1.4 or
745 later which means YAZ 3.0.47 or later.
747 --- 1.0.20 2009/11/19
749 For filter virt_db, the database is a glob pattern and the virtual
750 database sections are consulted in the order given.
752 --- 1.0.19 2009/07/08
754 For filter multi, the target (for routing) may be given as a glob-pattern.
756 More documentation for filters virt_db and multi.
758 Update schema to allow for no database in sru_z3950 filter.
760 --- 1.0.18 2009/06/30
762 Added limit filter to put sleep (penalty) for heavy use.
764 Filter frontend_net may be configured to limit the number of new connections
765 from same IP to some value (connect-max).
767 Fixed the load_balance filter.
769 --- 1.0.17 2009/06/16
771 Fix path for metaproxy executable for Debian init.d script.
773 --- 1.0.16 2009/06/10
775 SRU to Z39.50 filter honors x-username and x-password. If only
776 x-username is given that translates to open authentication (Z39.50v2). If
777 both x-username and x-password is present that translates to idPass
778 authentication (Z39.50v3).
780 New facility to change current working directory (-w).
782 Update to upstream skeleton of init.d script. Should fix bug #2619.
784 Filter session_shared now caches records (used to only cache connections
787 Filter session_shared now invalidates a Z39.50 session if a server
788 returns -1 hits. This facility was also part of yazproxy and gets around
789 a bug in Voyager-based Z39.50 servers.
791 --- 1.0.15 2008/11/18
793 Fixed reference counting bug in Z39.50 client module (could cause SEGV).
795 --- 1.0.14 2008/06/09
797 Fixed the value of SRU record schema in searchRetrieve response. It was set
798 to a fixed value of "dc" before.
800 Serialize identical SRU requests. This is useful if HTTP client software
801 fires identical requests against metaproxy.
803 Allow Z39.50 target to be specified for SRU requests by using SRU extra
804 parameter x-target. Allows SRU to contact arbitrary Z39.50 targets and
805 avoid static configuration. This facility is handled by the sru_z3950 module
806 and the z3950_client module.
808 Allow maximum number of sockets to be used for a Z39.50 client by the
809 use of SRU extra parameter x-max-sockets. This facility is handled by the
810 sru_z3950 module and the z3950_client module.
812 --- 1.0.13.1 2008/02/29
814 Simplified check for Boost libraries.
816 --- 1.0.13 2008/02/29
818 First Debian package.
820 The sru_z9350 filter now recognizes SRU parameter z-target as being
821 a ZURL of the form host/database .
823 Mergetype may be specified for filter 'multi'.
825 --- 1.0.12 2007/09/19
827 Fixed problem in Makefile WRT library specifictions. This could produce
828 linker errors (when they should not happen).
830 Fixed bug #1341: MetaProxy returning different results. Problem was that
831 fix-up of record database did not normalize the database name.
833 Documentation updates for Windows compilation.
835 --- 1.0.11 2007/06/14
837 Fixed problem with logfile being truncated.
839 --- 1.0.10 2007/05/23
841 Fixed bug #1136: Access rights not enforced.
843 Extension for log module. The log category 'access' logs more details.
844 New category 'user-access' added which is simlar to 'access' but adds
845 the Z39.50 user as for all entries in a session.
849 Added support for configurable default/force target/vhost for module Z39.50
854 Implemented filter, session_shared, which optimizes usage of Z39.50
855 sessions and result sets.
857 New filter, record_transform, which converts MARC/XML records.
859 New filter, sru_z3950, which converts SRU to Z39.50 packages.
861 New filter, load_balance, in development.
863 New filter, zeerex_xplain.
865 XML framework for config files started.
867 Master RelaxNG Compact schema's are found in xml/schema/*.rnc,
868 RelaxNG XML schemas and XML Schema's are generated from RNC syntax.
869 XML config files are checked against RNG and XML Schema's.
871 XSLT transformation framework added in xml/xslt/*.xsl, consisting mainly of
872 LOC Marc21 stylesheets found at http://www.loc.gov/marcxml/xslt.
873 Added stylesheet explain2cqlpqftxt.xsl which transforms a standard SRU ZeeReX
874 explain record to YAZ CQL-to-PQF text config file.
878 Added 'timeout' setting for filter frontend_net which specifies the number
879 of seconds a session is idle before it is closed. Default timeout is
884 Database name in records returned set for virt_db/multi filters.
886 Filter session_shared now functional.
888 Log filter can be configured to write to a given file using 'filename'
889 element. Also information category can be specified with 'category'. If
890 filename is omitted, the log filter writes to stdout. See etc/config5.xml
895 Fixed compilation on Windows.
899 Added documentation for the hidenavailable option for the multi filter.
903 Fixed bug #573: Hide errors for individual servers. If the element
904 'hideunavailable' is given in the configuration, individual servers
905 being unavailable are hidden (unless all are unavailable).
907 Fixed bug #574: Database names are recognised case-sensitively.
909 Fixed bug #567: Fix up database name in Name-Plus-Record.
911 Fixed bug #568: Update win/makefile for VS 2005.
913 Fixed bug #569: Some options throws unknown exception.
917 More information about virtual hosts. The 'etc' directory is part of the
922 Build instructions for Windows. NMake makefile part of distribution tar.
