3 Implemented bug #806: Deal with HTTP clients sending LF in HTTP headers.
5 Added ZOOM_connection_peek_event.
7 Implemented Generic select hook for ZOOM (bug #803). This is achieved with
8 the following new functions:
9 ZOOM_event_nonblock, ZOOM_connection_process,
10 ZOOM_connection_get_{socket,mask,timeout},
11 ZOOM_connection_fire_event_{timeout,socket}.
12 The existing blocking event handler, ZOOM_event, is a wrapper for the
13 + blocking ZOOM_event_sys_{poll,select}.
15 Implemented function ccl_xml_config which parses XML version of CCL
16 configuration (bug #798).
18 Fixed bug #797: yaz_marc_write_xml does not honor character conversion.
20 Added timings utility (yaz/timing.h)
24 Added yaz_marc_write_xml which creates MARCXML/MarcXchange record as
27 Fixed bug #779: Rotation of apdu.log fails.
29 Fixed for character set conversions:
30 Unicode to MARC-8 conversion for certain less preferred UTF-8 sequences.
31 Honor G1 set in MARC-8 decoding.
35 Fixed bug #775: char conversion does not handle Alternative UTF-8
38 Implemented function yaz_marc_read_line which parses MARC line format
39 records. There is a wealth of formats out there. So far, this function
40 reads line records produced by yaz_marc_write_line.
42 yaz-marcdump's options -x, -X, -I, -e have been replaced with the
43 more generic and easier to remember(!) options: -i format and -o format
44 which specifies input format and output format respectively - where
45 format is one of "marc", "marcxml", "line", "marcxchange".
47 Added 'check only' option for MARC utilities. Option -n for yaz-marcdump
48 does not print anything except warnings for records.
50 For yaz-marcdump, added support for MARC split into files (-s) with a given
53 Changed the SRU update structures and codecs to reflect the SRU pre 1.0
54 spec, at http://www.loc.gov/standards/sru/record-update/
55 This has changed the binary layout of the following structs:
56 Z_SRW_extra_record, Z_SRW_updateRequest, Z_SRW_updateResponse and
57 bend_update_rr . Patch by Ko van der Sloot.
59 Added GFS utility function bend_assoc_is_alive which returns 1 if
60 association is still alive (client is connected); 0 otherwise (client
61 closed connection). This allows busy servers to stop working for
64 Added ziffy: the promiscuous Z39.50 APDU sniffer. until now, ziffy has
65 been a separate piece of software. This version of ziffy has been modified
66 to fit with YAZ. ziffy is copyright Rocco Carbone and covered by GPL v2.
68 Fixed bug #740: Handle SRU records referring to xmlns's outside recordData.
70 Fixed bug #722: Allow Z39.50 Init Options to be specified / retrieved.
71 Client code may now interrogate options such as "init_opt_sort" to
72 find out whether the server claims to support various options.
76 Added utilities yaz_{set,get}_esn to set/get element set name from
79 Removed the build of libyazthread.la. The libyaz.so is the threaded version
80 of YAZ and has been so since YAZ 2.1.10.
82 Implemented ZOOM_record_error which returns error information for
83 record (surrogate diagnostic).
87 Updates for SRU Update by Ko van der Sloot:
88 1. Changed name from "operation" to "action"
89 2. Fixed that that "recordIdentifier" was called "recordId". Kept the old
90 versions in the code, marked as 'backward compatible'.
91 3. Added diagnostics for SRU Update.
93 Fixed bug #709: Records are fetched in wrong format when tasks are queued.
95 Fixed bug #707: CQL->RPN ignores lines with leading spaces.
97 Fixed bug #706: XML hex encoding UTF-8 chars out of range 0-255.
99 For GFS, fixed problem with SRU diagnostic 'First record position out of
100 range' being issued for 0 hits.
102 zoomtst10 part of Windows Build.
104 --- 2.1.36 2006/10/13
106 Implemented yaz_filepath_comp which splits a path into file path
107 components (required by Zebra 2.0.3+).
109 Change wording of YAZ license to the 'Revised BSD License'. YAZ has used a
110 BSD inspired license until now so this should not have any real impact on
111 anybody. See http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php
113 Fixed bug #687: Missing log lines.
115 Fixed bug #678: CQL to PQF translation does not preserve double-quote
118 Fixed bug #689: SRU diagnostics to be added.
120 Implemented new ZOOM function, ZOOM_connection_is_idle, which checks
121 whether a connection is idle (no more work do do).
123 --- 2.1.34 2006/10/04
125 Change type of optval from long to int for invocation of setsockopt with
126 the SO_REUSEADDR option. Thanks to Ateeq A. Altaf, Talis.
128 Added support for specifying the max log file size for the Generic
129 Frontend Server. The size is given with option -r.
131 --- 2.1.32 2006/09/21
133 Fix problem introduced in YAZ 2.1.28 WRT unix sockets in the ZOOM code.
135 --- 2.1.30 2006/09/17
137 Fixes for getaddrinfo use, Bugs #655 + #660. These bugs were introduced
140 Fixed bug in Generic Frontend Server that could cause a server to stop
141 accepting new connections. Bug only seen on dual CPU Windows 2003 server.
143 For the generic frontend server, the maximum record size is used as maximum
144 size of incoming packages (SRU + Z39.50). The value until was previously
145 only used in Z39.50 Init negotiation and, later, in a session controlled
146 sizes of records returned. This is controlled using -k option. It can be
147 specified, per server, with element maximumrecordsize in YAZ' GFS XML config.
149 --- 2.1.28 2006/09/04
151 TCP/IP comstack uses getaddrinfo now to resolve names. It should be IPV6
154 Fixed bug #644: Using Non Reentrant gethostbyname causes SIGSEGV.
156 New option for yaz-marcdump -lpos=value which allows setting a portion
157 of MARC header to a certain value.
159 Fixes for MARC generation when encoded as MARC-8 (bug 642, 643).
161 ZOOM-C reads option extraArgs. If set the value of extraArgs is appended to
162 SRU URI (POST/GET). Value must be URL encoded, such as x-id-a=v1&x-id-b=v2 .
164 --- 2.1.26 2006/08/15
166 Fixed problem with SRU mode type (soap, get, post) for yaz-client
169 Fixed problem another problem with ZOOM_EVENT_RECV_RECORD . Bug #626.
171 --- 2.1.24 2006/08/08
173 Fixed MARC ISO2709 encoding routines to deal with character set
176 Minor changes to GFS logging. Database included in search request log
179 Fixes for ZOOM-C: event ZOOM_EVENT_RECV_RECORD was not generated for
180 cached/multiple records.
182 Shared libraries are built by default on Unix+configure.
184 Changed cql2pqf transformation to use a different evaluation order. The
185 new order is: always, relation, structure, position, truncation, index
186 and relationModifier. Old order was: always, relation, relationModifier,
187 structure, index, position, truncation. Note that the the latter ones
188 override former ones for identical attributes.. The new scheme means that
189 it is possible to override any existing attribute with a relationModifier.
190 And also that it is possible to override everything for the index rule
191 (except the ones listed in relationModifier). No order is perfect but this
192 one, we believe, covers more real cases.. The "always" should have been
193 called "default", since the attributes there can be overridden with all
196 For Libxml2 and friends, YAZ defines YAZ_HAVE_{XML2,XSLT,EXSLT) in the
197 compilation phase, but also for yaz-config --cflags output. This allows
198 us to have public headers with Libxml2 stuff in them . It should also,
199 eventually, make Libxml2 checks redundant in packages using YAZ, such
202 --- 2.1.22 2006/06/15
204 Changed SRU update structure bend_update_rr so that SRU diagnostics are
205 stored in uri, message and details.. Previously diagnostics were stored
206 in errcode, errstring. Patch by Ko van der Sloot. Breaks binary
207 compatibility.. but he's probably the only one affected, so.
209 Added support for CCL, compiled on the client side, in ZOOM-C. This
210 is invoked using ZOOM_query_ccl2rpn() with the CCL configuration as
211 input; the resulting query objects can be used for for searching with
212 ZOOM_connection_search() and scanning with ZOOM_connection_scan1().
214 YAZ' configure searches for OpenSSL by default.
216 SSL comstack uses SL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file rather than
217 SL_CTX_use_certificate_file. See
218 http://lists.indexdata.dk/pipermail/yazlist/2006-June/001615.html
219 for more info. Thanks to Ko van der Sloot.
221 --- 2.1.20 2006/06/02
223 Bug #600: SRU GET, POST support for yaz-client. Introduced
224 command 'sru' which selects method SOAP/GET/POST.
226 Allow missingValueAction to be specified for the sortspec string -
227 function yaz_sort_spec. By default, the missing value action is null.
228 Use ! to specify "abort". Use = followed by stringvalue to specify default
231 Ensured that Present-handler (if defined) is called in GFS before any call to
232 fetch-hhndler. This now includes piggy-backed presents as well as SRW/U
233 searchRetrieve requests.
235 Documentation for YAZ is now based on the Docbook XML/XSLT using
236 xsltproc + N Walsh's stylesheets. It means that the CVS version of YAZ
237 is no longer depending on jade/openjade or docbook-to-man scripts.
238 PDF is no longer part of the distribution - but can optionally be
239 made using DSSSL/jadetex or FOP.
241 Added retrieval handling support in Generic Frontend Server to support
242 conversion between MARC/XML as well as XSLTtransforms. See
243 etc/yazgfs.xml for an example.
245 Added Authentication support to Generic Frontend Server in SRU
246 mode. Authentication using HTTP Basic is supported, as is the use
247 of 'x-username' and 'x-password' parameters in the request itself.
249 Added support for a new character set MARC8s identical to MARC8 except
250 that it converts combined characters to single Unicode characters in the
251 Latin-1 range (when possible).
253 --- 2.1.18 2006/04/24
255 ASN.1 compiler 0.4: generates brief Doxygen file header for
256 generated .h/.c files.
258 Utility yaz_iconv now supports conversion to MARC-8.
260 New facilities for the MARC module. The reading - and writing of
261 content are separate methods for the yaz_marc_t handle. The following
262 read functions are available: yaz_marc_read_iso2709 (Reads MARC in
263 ISO2709 format), yaz_marc_read_xml (reads MARC in MARCXML/MarcXchange
264 format). Write functions have prefix yaz_marc_write_.. The existing
265 utilities yaz_marc_decode_wrbuf and yaz_marc_decode_buf are still
266 available. Removed support for OAI-MARC and simplexml (not the
267 simplexml from PHP5).
269 Added a new ZOOM event type ZOOM_EVENT_END which signals no more events
270 to be returned for this connection.
272 --- 2.1.16 2006/03/31
274 Allow multiple languages and charsets to be specified with
275 yaz-client. Each item must be separated by comma (NO BLANKS). E.g.
276 negcharset iso-8859-1,utf-8
278 Translation of proximity nodes from CQL into PQF now works.
280 Moved to automake 1.8, 1.9.
282 Added function yaz_log_set_handler which allows a log handler to be
283 installed. This handler will be called for all log messages. Output
284 to file is also produced; but that can be disabled by passing NULL
285 fname to yaz_log_init_file.
287 Fixed another problem with MARC-8 -> ISO-8859-1 conversions. Bug #537.
289 For SRW (including GFS), accept application/soap+xml as content-type
292 For GFS in SRU mode, an empty stylesheet in SRU URL (&stylesheet=&)
293 produces NO stylesheet reference even if a default stylesheet is specified
296 --- 2.1.14 2006/03/14
298 Updated Windows package to include yazd.dll + yazd.lib for the
299 Development component.
301 If the environment variable YAZ_LOG is set, then it is used as a
302 string indicating the default level of logging to use if not
303 overridden by calls to yaz_log_init() or yaz_log_init_level(). If
304 it's not defined, then the manifest constant YLOG_DEFAULT_LEVEL is
305 used as before. So, for example, to omit warnings from YAZ logging,
308 cql_transform() now map structure and other attributes before indexes,
309 so that index-specific structures and other attributes can override
310 defaults. So now a combination of mapping specifications such as:
312 index.dc.date = 1=date-modified 4=5
313 does the right thing.
315 cql_transform() now also respects the "always" mapping specification,
316 which establishes an initial set of attributes to be used for all
317 terms except where overridden by more specific attributes associated
318 with the index, relation or modifier.
320 Added SRU-GET and SRU-POST support for ZOOM C. Option "sru" specifies
321 which mode to use; one of "post", "get" or "soap" (SRW, default).
323 Fixes for yaz_iconv routines: changed trie-based character set conversions
324 to use only non-negative values for bit fields due to Sun's C compiler not
325 supporting negative values.
327 Fixed bug in character set conversion yaz_iconv. Some three byte UTF-8
328 sequences where not read correctly. Fix by Rustam Usmanov.
330 Updated win/makefile to use options, settings which makes things
331 compile with VS C 2005.
333 --- 2.1.12 2006/02/01
335 Fixed bug in yaz_oi_update which used incorrect value for categoryValue.
337 In ZOOM socket code, use select instead of poll on MacOSX.
339 ZOOM-C now support client-side compilation of CQL into RPN that is
340 sent to the server, enabling CQL to be used against all Z39.50
341 servers. Use ZOOM_query_cql2rpn() to set the compiled CQL into a
342 ZOOM_query object, and submit it using ZOOM_connection_search().
343 The CQL-to-RPN translation uses a configuration file, the name of
344 which must be specified in the Connection's "cqlfile" option.
346 ZOOM-C also support CQL scanning, via the new ZOOM_connection_scan1()
347 function, which takes as its start-term parameter a ZOOM_query object
348 (which may have had either CQL or RPN set into it).
351 --- 2.1.10 2005/11/29
353 Added ZiNG Update Support. New codecs are defined in srw.h. Extended the
354 GFS to support this as well. Backend handler, bend_srw_update, does the
355 update work. Code contributed by Ko van der Sloot.
357 Allow retrieval of Search Result-1 information in ZOOM by the use of
358 options that are attached to a result set. ZOOM documentation updated
361 Fixed bug #416: First/second comb characters not handled in the MARC-8 to
362 UTF-8 conversion. Patch by Raj Patel.
364 Added option -m to GFS to control formatting of timestamps in log file.
366 Added 'exit' as synonym for 'quit' in yaz-client
368 Added support for specifying SRW resultSetId + resultSetIdleTime in a
369 Generic Frontend Server's search handler. Refer to include/yaz/backend.h
370 for the new members. Patch by Ko van der Sloot.
372 Added support for SRU POST. It is supported for content-type
373 application/x-www-form-urlencoded only. Patch by Ko van der Sloot.
375 Do not build the separate Multi-threaded (MT) library libyazthread.la.
376 Instead make the library libyaz.la multi-threaded. Threading as a whole
377 can still be disabled by configure option --disable-threads. Previosly,
378 with older GLIBCs there were problems with MT libs under Apache. This
379 has now been fixed a long time ago.
381 Fixed bugs in yaz_log that occurred on Sparc Solaris in Multi-threaded
384 CQL module modified to be case insensitive for relations/indexes/operations.
386 Fixed bug in CQL transform code: incorrect value relationModifieder
389 Added 'show all' command for yaz-client which retrieves all results
392 Added new yaz-client, xmles, which takes a (private) OID and
393 a document to be sent as an extended service request.
395 Describe new yaz-client commands wait_response and set_auto_wait.
397 Increase TCP/IP listener backlog from 3 (which I am guessing was
398 copied from the SunOS manual entry way back when) so SOMAXCONN, so
399 that the socket will queue as many incoming connections as it's able
400 to handle ongoing connections. In other words, it will never now
401 refuse a connection that it would be able to handle merely because
402 it's not got around to accepting() enough of the pending connections
403 yet. This is the behaviour anyway under Linux, where the listen()
404 argument is ignored; but not under BSD and on systems such as
405 MS-Windows that use BSD-derived TCP/IP stacks. The behaviour of
406 YAZ-based servers should now be uniform across operating systems in
409 yaz-marcdump uses 64-bit file access on some systems. This is enabled
410 on Linux and other Unix variants where _FILE_OFSET_BITS=64 is supported.
411 This allows yaz-marcdump to read large MARC batches (>2 GB).
413 Modified all YAZ source files - except the source which is auto-generated
414 by tools - to use spaces rather than TABS. Emacs/VIM trailer added to
417 Add ZOOM_connection_option_getl() and ZOOM_options_getl(),
418 corresponding to the existing *_setl() function. These allow option
419 values containing arbitrary valuues.
421 Add ZOOM_resultset_sort1(), which should ALWAYS be used in place of
422 ZOOM_resultset_sort() in new applications. Its behaviour is identical
423 except that it returns an indicator of whether or not the sort
424 criterion was accepted (0 for OK, -1 for invalid).
428 Fixed bug in yaz_marc_decode_buf. By mistake the routine appended
429 MARC output rather than returning "new" buffer.
431 yaz-client warns about unknown init options.
433 Fixed bug #371: "options concurrentOperations ignores concurrentOperations"
437 Added support for SRW sort in Generic Frontend Server. Patch
438 by Ko van der Sloot. Member srw_sortKeys in bend_search_rr holds
439 sortKeys - or NULL if none is provided.
441 Fixed bug #307: It was impossible to specify indefinite/no timeout
442 for ZOOM_event. Special timeout value -1 now means indefinite timeout
445 Added support for multiple languages and charsets to be specified in
446 ZOOM. Each charset/language is separated by a blank. If negotiation is
447 in effect in init-response, Option
448 "negotiation-charset-in-effect-for-records" set to 1(true) or 0(false).
449 Code based on patch by Vasiliy Osadchuk.
451 Fixed bug #306: infinite recursion that occurred when calling
452 yaz_log_level_init as the first call (before other log level or
455 Fixed bug in scan handling in front end server: if preferred-Position-In-
456 Response was non-present, a NULL pointer referece was performed.
460 Changed include/yaz/diagbib1.h and added include/yaz/diagsrw.h with
461 diagnostic messages+codes for Bib-1 and SRW. Preprocessor defines are
462 now defined for all those error codes. So instead of putting 109 in
463 your program you'd use YAZ_BIB1_DATABASE_UNAVAILABLE. The messages
464 are generated from a .csv - file. See src/bib1.csv and srw/srw.csv.
466 Modified the yaz-marcdump utility to skip garbage bytes between MARC
469 Fixed bug - uninitialized memory - due to bad code for fix of bug #272.
471 Program yaz-client now exits and produces an error message if multiple
472 Z39.50 servers are specified on the command line (none or one allowed
475 Program yaz-marcdump skips garbage bytes between ISO2709 records rather
480 Fixed bug #273: Update for recent MARC-8 -> UNICODE changes.
482 Fixed bug #272: Preserve spacing for CCL terms.
486 Added support for virtual hosts and multiple backend servers for
487 the YAZ frontend server. The configution is XML based and
488 support specificition of CQL to RPN mappings and explain information.
489 See section "Virtual Hosts" in the YAZ manual.
491 Extended OPAC display utility. OPAC display utility renders
492 bibliographic (MARC) record as well. Added yaz_opac_decode_wrbuf
493 to supplement yaz_marc_decode_wrbuf.
495 Fixed a bug in MARC decoder that could caused it to crash for some
496 invalid MARC records. More diagnostics and warnings where added in
497 XML output (warnings, etc are stored in comments).
499 --- 2.0.34 2005/02/08
501 Fixes for UNIX domain sockets. Bug #261.
503 Fixes for MARC-8 to UTF-8 conversion. Bugs #258 and #260.
505 Fixed bug #263: YAZ MARCXML dump shows extra spaces after control fields.
506 Added yaz_marc_subfield_str which defines subfield lead string which is
507 used in YAZ_MARC_LINE format. Default string is blank+$. Added
508 yaz_marc_endline_str which defines end of fields string used in
509 YAZ_MARC_LINE format. Default string is newline.
511 Experimental support for MarcXChange. This format can be produced
512 by yaz-marcdump and is implemented in yaz_marc_decode - functions.
513 http://www.bs.dk/standards/MarcXchange.xsd
515 Added yaz-client commands scansize that sets maximum number of
516 entries to be returned by scan.
518 --- 2.0.32 2005/01/11
520 Added support for SRW scan in yaz-client and Generic Frontend Server.
522 * Added whereInList member to SRW Scan Term.
524 * Changed Z_SRW_scanRequest to be able to carry both CCL and PQF.
526 Fixed NMEM system to return aligned blocks on the smallest boundaries
527 that are suitably aligned for all possible types on the particular
528 architecture YAZ is being built for.
530 --- 2.0.30 2005/01/04
532 Fixed numerious warnings that was issued with newer versions of GCC.
534 Fixed NMEM system to return aligned blocks on 8 byte boundaries rather
535 than 4 bytes, since 4 may not be enough on some systems such as GCC 3.4.3
538 Make YAZ Generic Frontend Server slightly faster.
540 Enhance (and reduce) logging for Generic Frontend Server.
542 Revert YAZ log system so that it flushes every write operation
543 by default. (YAZ 2.0.26 and earlier verisons did that). Bug #240.
545 Modified the YAZ logging system. The LOG level defines use YLOG_ prefix
546 instead of LOG_, due to name clash with syslog(3). LOG_ are still
547 present. New applications should define YAZ_USE_NEW_LOG=1 - this
548 will effectively disable old definitions.
550 --- 2.0.28 2004/11/09
552 Added yaz_log_time_format which specifies log format using
555 Added yaz_log_module_level which returns mask for a module. Value
556 is non-zero mask a if module is enabled; zero if disabled.
558 * Fixed bug #148: CQL parser may leak. A few prototypes were changed
559 in include/yaz/cql.h.
561 Fixed bug #176: Dont throw diagnostics on empty SRU args.
563 Fixed bug #175: surrogate diagnostics in SRW lacking NS.
565 Fixed bug #172: RPM builds does not enable SSL.
567 Doxyfile.in part of dist. Doxyfile generated by configure.
569 Configure aborts if any of --with-xml2, --with-openssl, --enable-tcpd
570 are given and the corresponding component does not exist.
572 Extend CCL documentation in YAZ reference. Describe r=r.
574 --- 2.0.26 2004/10/01
576 Fixed MARC->MARCXML conversion to properly deal with
577 fields, subfields, indicators having non-ASCII characters.
579 Fixed MARC->MARCXML conversion so that ASCII control characters
580 except TAB,CR,LF are removed from resulting XML (XML 1.0 does not
583 Added YAZ GFS support for conversion from Z39.50 surrogate
584 diagnostics to SRW surrogate diagnostics.
586 Bug fix: YAZ GFS did not return schema in explainResponse.
588 --- 2.0.25 2004/09/30
590 The YAZ GFS when converting SRW/SRU requests to Z39.50 structures
591 now converts recordSchema to elementSetName as well as schema URI.
593 Fixed bug in COMSTACK that prevented HTTP request packages from being
596 --- 2.0.24 2004/09/29
598 Added CCL facility r=r "range" which is similar to r=o "ordered" but
599 does not require white-space before and after the dash in a range, e.g.
600 x=-1990 is equivalent to x <= 1990 iff r=r, but equivalent to x= -1980
603 Fixed a few AC_TRY_LINK configure tests that did not operate properly
604 due to new GCC removing "redundant" code.
606 Added yaz-client commands scanpos and scanstep that sets preferred
607 position and step-size for scan.
609 Macro YAZ_INIT in yaz.m4: option --with-yazconfig renamed to --with-yaz.
611 Added CCL utility ccl_qual_buf which parses one or more CCL
612 spec lines in a buffer.
614 Added CCL utility ccl_qual_line which adds CCL qualifier line consisting
615 of name and value - ignoring empty lines and comments.
617 On Windows, the debug DLL/import lib is now named yazd.{dll,lib}.
619 Added odr_get_element_path which returns current element path for an
620 ODR handle. This utility is useful in error handling or user-defined
623 Added ODR_PRINT utility odr_set_stream which is is a more generic
624 alternative to odr_setprint. odr_set_stream takes a stream handle, pointer
625 to a write function and pointer to close function. The close function - if
626 non-NULL - will be called during odr_destroy.
628 Fixed bug in CCL parser where truncation char was not removed from
629 right side when truncation=both was in effect.
631 Fixed CQL parser to use unsigned chars for isxxx from ctype.h due
634 --- 2.0.23 2004/08/11
636 Fix buffer overrun in CQL parser when dealing with proximity (%).
638 Fixes for MARC-8 in yaz_iconv character set utilies. The MARC-8
639 to UTF-8/UCS conversion is now only based on codetables.xml.
641 yaz_marc_decode_buf sets leader pos 9 to "a" for MARCXML output.
643 --- 2.0.22 2004/08/06
645 Add support for more "commit changes" in ZOOM (uses Extended Services).
647 For yaz-client, command set_marcdump <file> / -m <file> dumps SUTRS/XML/..
650 Yet another small fix for configure of SSL.
652 --- 2.0.21 2004/05/14
654 Fix SSL libs for configure when --with-openssl=DIR is given.
656 --- 2.0.20 2004/05/10
658 Add autoconf m4 macro YAZ_DOC for YAZ documentation setup (docbook).
660 SSL comstack now uses yaz.pem certificate file on server side
661 by default. Certificate filename can be configured by calling
662 comstack function cs_set_ssl_certificate_file before cs_bind is used.
664 Fix bug regarding multiple calls to ZOOM_connection_connect.
666 Implement cs_set_ssl_ctx which sets SSL_CTX for SSL comstack.
668 Do not create SSL_CTX in cs_create (ssl_type). Create in tcpip_bind,
669 tcpip_rcvconnect instead. This allows user to set custom SSL_CTX.
671 ZOOM now allows inspection of X509 peer certificate for verification.
672 The X509 buffer is retrived by reading ZOOM option "sslPeerCert".
674 Removed libyazssl.la. When SSL is enabled, libyaz.la has SSL support and
675 all programs have too (yaz-ztest, yaz-client, zoom..). May not be
676 as "modular" but it simplifies things.
678 Added cs_get_peer_certificate to that returns peer X509 PEM.
680 Added cs_get_ssl that returns SSL handle (SSL *) for SSL comstack; returns
681 NULL if SSL is unavailable.
683 Documentation about MARC decoding tools.
685 Fix --disable-tcpd to really disable tcpd. Patch by Robin H. Johnson.
687 --- 2.0.19 2004/03/30
689 Rename CHANGELOG to NEWS to follow GNU style packing.
691 Fix bug with missing initialization of member in init_diagnostics.
692 This bug affects threaded version of GFS server.
694 --- 2.0.18 2004/03/20
696 Use wrbuf_xmlputs_n instead of wrbuf_write_cdata to avoid clash with
699 Ensure zlib.dll is packed with Windows install.
701 --- 2.0.17 2004/03/17
703 Fix encoding of xsd:string to use text instead of CDATA.
705 Fix endless loop in CQL parser with unbalanced ".
707 Use a more compact way to store MARC-8 conversion tables.
709 --- 2.0.16 2004/03/16 Debian only
711 Oleg Kolobov Fixed a bug in yaz_iconv regarding conversion to
714 Update CQL parser to use new CQL 1.1 modifiers for booleans and
719 --- 2.0.15 2004/03/01
721 Another fix for decoding of XML packed records.
723 --- 2.0.14 2004/02/25
725 Fixes for Chunked encoding. White space not ignored after length spec.
727 Update NS and use default NS for SRW diagnostic elements.
729 --- 2.0.13 2004/02/23
731 Implement ZOOM_resultset_cache_reset which resets record cache.
733 Implement ZOOM_resultset_sort which sorts a result set.
735 Implement chunked HTTP transfer.
737 For SSL, use -lssl -lcrypto on systems that don't have pkg-config.
739 --- 2.0.12 2004/02/16
741 Added member 'schema' to bend_explain_rr structure so that backend
742 can specify explain record identifier. Defaults to Zeerex 2.0.
744 Fix encoding of OID's of form 1.0.X. Bug introduced in 2.0.11.
746 --- 2.0.11 2004/02/16
748 * SRW/SRU 1.1 updates: updated diagnostic in srw.h to use uri instead
751 Added init command for yaz-client which sends "extra" init request.
753 Fixed two bugs in OID codec - ber_oidc. Throw error when encoding/decoding
754 bad truncated OID. Fix decoding of OID X.Y... when X=2 and Y>39.
756 Fixed a bug in ASN.1 compiler that caused Type-1 Operator codec to fail.
758 Make ZOOM error code for "invalid query".
760 Fixed compilation for SSL which wasn't properly enabled for all platforms.
762 --- 2.0.10 2004/02/05
764 For yaz.m4, allow second argument for YAZ_INIT to hold minimal version of
767 * SRW/SRU 1.1 updates. Diagnostic code now a URI.
769 Added option -p <file> to make Generic Frontend Server to write PID file.
771 Added option -D to put Generic Frontend Server in background on its own.
773 Make ZOOM C recognize option "password". If unset, "pass" is used
774 (for backwards compatibility).
776 Fixed a bug in Generic Frontend Server that could make it crash if a
777 client sets characterSetNegotation bit, but didn't pass negotiation stuff
780 New YAZ client command, zversion, that sets Z39.50 version (1,2,3..).
781 Must be issued before open, in order to be in effect.
783 --- 2.0.9-6 2004/01/12 Debian/Windows
785 Make the SRU server more picky WRT unknown params, etc.
787 Bug fix: ZOOM scan response didn't return displayTerm - when present.
789 New YAZ client command, options, that sets Z39.50 options.
791 New utility functions yaz_init_opt_{encode,decode} to encode/decode Z39.50
792 options from a string of tokens (one token for each option bit).
794 Update SRW diagnostic code messages.
796 --- 2.0.9-5 2004/01/07 Debian/Windows
798 Handle user defined stylesheet for SRW/SRU.
800 --- 2.0.9-4 2004/01/06 Debian/Windows
802 Fix bug in decoding of Content-Length.
804 --- 2.0.9-3 2004/01/06 Debian/Windows
806 Fix a bug with decoding of XML packed records.
808 --- 2.0.9-2 2004/01/05 Debian only
810 Allow empty ODR (NMEM=0) for odr_oiddup and odr_getoidbystr.
812 Fix bug in SRW/SRU diagnostics decoding.
816 Fixed bug in Generic Frontend Server which could drop records exceeding
817 preferred message size. Reported and fixed by Irina Dijour.
819 Fixed calculation of package size for structured records in Generic
820 Frontend Server. Reported and fixed by Irina Dijour.
822 Fixed namespace for SRW/SRU diagnostics.
824 Fixed SEGV in yaz-client that occured for HTTP connection errors.
828 * SRW/SRU 1.1. Since the Namespace has changed for SRW/SRU, it means that
829 this version is incompatible with version 1.0 and older YAZ SRW/SRU
832 CQL changes to reflect recent changes to the specification:
833 * Documentation talks about context sets instead of index sets.
834 * Documentation talks about indexes instead of qualifiers.
835 * The CQL-to-PQF transformer's configuration file now uses
836 "index.set.name = <attributes>" instead of the old form
837 "qualifier.set.name = <attributes>". (Both forms are still
838 understood but the latter is deprecated.)
839 * CQL terms with no explicit index specified are now interpreted as
840 cql.serverChoice instead of srw.serverChoice (which of course
841 behaves exactly the same.)
845 MARC conversion can now generate ISO2709 output in another
846 character set. yaz-marcdump uses this facility if you invoke it
849 Added missing C decl macros for include/yaz/{soap.h,srw.h,cql.h}, so that
850 functions from there can be used from C++.
854 Frontend server now transfers memory from decoded packages to stream
857 NMEM now clears freed blocks with 'Y' (hex 59) to force bad memory
858 references to show up.
860 ZOOM-C now supports standard ZOOM option names as described in v1.4 of
861 the ZOOM Abstract API. The older names for the same options are still
862 also supported for the benefit of old applications.
864 ZOOM-C supports "implementationId" and "implementationVersion" options
865 to go along with "implementationName". These allow the user code to
866 specify identification strings to be sent to servers.
867 Add OID for the new ExtLite attribute set.
869 Add OIDs for NACSIS-CATP, FINMARC2000 and MARC21-fin record-syntaxes,
870 as requested/supplid by Ere Maijala <ere@atp.fi>
872 For generic frontend server, reverse the order of
873 "toolkit-supplied / application-supplied" strings sent as implementationId,
874 Name and Version. Also, remove the spaces around the slash. This brings
875 the GFS in line with the behaviour of ZOOM-C on the client side.
877 Add function ZOOM_scanset_display_term.
879 yaz-client shows scan displayTerm if present.
881 Utility yaz-iconv is now installed by default along with the man page
884 Extend configure check for OpenSSL to use pkg-config where available (such
887 Incorporate patch by Morten Bogeskov which allows a Unix file socket
888 server to specify uid/gid/mask for socket using the format
889 unix:[user=uid,][group=gid,][umask=mask,]file=path
890 If file= is omitted the existing format is assumed, e.g.
892 in which case the mask is 0666 (rw for everybody).
894 Major restructure of YAZ source. All source in libyaz is in src directory.
895 Programs in client (yaz-client), ztest (yaz-ztest), zoom (zoom programs),
896 util (utility programs such as ASN.1 compiler, yaz-marcdump).
898 Added man page for utility yaz-marcdump (used to be called marcdump).
899 yaz-marcdump is installed by 'make install'.
901 Fixed a memory leak in Generic Frontend Server that occurred when decoding
902 of incoming package failed.
904 Fixed a potential DOS attack vulnerability in COMSTACK/ODR.
906 Change prototype of odr_perror: add const to message string.
908 New function yaz_log_reopen which reopens log file (for log rotate, etc.)
910 * Blocking parameter for COMSTACK cs_create is now a bit mask rather
911 than a blocking flag. Bit 0 is set for blocking, reset for non-blocking.
912 Bit 1 is set if cs_addrstr should avoid DNS lookup; reset for full
913 DNS lookup. There should not be any compatibility problems with this
914 assuming that blocking=1 or 0 is used.
916 Fix bad reference in UNIX comstack in function cs_addrstr.
918 Fix for compilation on AIX.
920 The generic front-end server (server/seshigh.c) now supports returning
921 Init diagnostics to the client in User-information-field, in
922 accordance with Z35.90 Implementor Agreement 5 (Returning diagnostics
927 Allow any CQL relation (not just all,any,exact,scr).
929 Fixes for OCLC UI ASN.1 to make it work with SilverPlatter targets
930 that features the same UI.
932 Implemented command update0 in YAZ client which is equivalent to
933 update but uses old of Ext Update ASN.1.
935 Use OID 1.2.840.10003.15.1000.81.1 for privately defined charsets
936 in charset negotiation. Added VAL_ID_CHARSET in oid.h.
937 Previously no OID was used for this info.
939 ZOOM uses smallSetUpperBound=1 instead of 0 for piggyback searches.
940 It apparantely upsets EBSCO Publishing IR Z39.50 Server which
941 returns 'malformed search term' otherwise.
943 SortResponse member resultCount now set to NULL in sort handler of
946 OPAC support ZOOM. ZOOM_record_get returns OPAC info (as XML) if
949 Add three new utility functions for translating OIDs between various
950 formats -- symbolic name such as "Usmarc", minus-1-terminated int
951 arrays and dotted strings such as "1.2.840.10003.9.5.1":
952 int *oid_name_to_oid(oid_class oclass, const char *name, int *oid);
953 char *oid_to_dotstring(const int *oid, char *oidbuf);
954 char *oid_name_to_dotstring(oid_class oclass, const char *name, char *oidbuf);
956 Reverted modifications for ES Update definition for z_IU0Update
957 (OID 1.2.840.10003.9.5.1 and 1.2.840.10003.9.5). The definition
958 is back to YAZ 2.0.2.
960 String value attributes for CCL parser.
962 Support for OCLC's locally registered "OCLC-UserInformation" PDU,
963 which their FirstSearch server returns in Init responses, sometimes
964 carrying useful diagnostic information when Init fails. This has the
965 OID 1.2.840.10003.10.1000.17.1 and is defined in the file
966 "z39.50/oclcui.asn", where its definition is somewhat different from
967 what OCLC document on their web-site, as required to interoperate with
970 Support for anonymous authentication in yaz-client. Use the command
973 * Fix the OID of the Index Data-local "admin" Extended Service from
974 1.2.840.10003.9.81.1 to 1.2.840.10003.9.1000.81.1. The omission of
975 the 1000, which indicates a locally-defined OID, was a mistake.
979 Fix CCL directive @case handling so that it affects string match for
980 both CCL keywords and qualifiers.
982 * ESFormat-Update updates. Packages with OID 1.2.840.10003.9.5.1 and
983 1.2.840.10003.9.5 are now handled by the same decoder z_IU0Update .
984 Decoder has been updated with ASN.1 changes as listed in
985 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/defns/updateES.html
986 Note that the "latest" DB Update, OID 1.2.840.10003.9.5.1.1 , handler
987 z_IUUpdate, remains unchanged.
989 ZOOM_record_get may now return a record in a specific character set.
990 For type use "form; charset=from[,to]" where form (render, xml, ..) ,
991 "from" is the character set of record as returned by target. "to" is
992 the character set to be returned. If omitted, "to" is UTF-8.
994 YAZ ASN.1 compiler renamed from yaz-comp to yaz-asncomp
996 New ODR utility, odr_getelement, which returns name of element for
997 which encoding/decoding failed.
999 Fixed ODR so that it returns error code OREQUIRED rather than ONONE
1000 in cases where a required element was omitted.
1002 Bug fix: some MARC8 sequences were not converted.
1004 New ZOOM option "step" which specifies number of records to be
1005 retrieved in one chunk. Used in conjunction with "start" and "count".
1007 SRW support for yaz-client. Use scheme http: to use it, e.g.
1010 yaz-client no longer does (un)intelligent character set conversions
1011 by default. Can be enabled with charset and marc_charset commands.
1013 xmalloc trace fix for 64-bit systems such as DEC alpha.
1015 Solaris 2.6 compile fix.
1017 New function, cql_strerror() translates SRW error codes, as returned
1018 by cql_transform_error(), into human-readable English strings. Used
1019 in yaz-client diagnostics when appropriate.
1021 New CQL2RPN query-type for the command-line yaz-client, parses CQL and
1022 converts it into a type-1 query which is sent to the server. This
1023 makes CQL available for use with all Z-servers, as opposed to the tiny
1024 minority that can handle CQL queries themselves.
1026 --- 2.0.2 2003/04/28
1028 New Debian package layout similar to the Redhat Package layout.
1030 New ZOOM events ZOOM_EVENT_RECV_{RECORD,SEARCH} for receiving a record
1031 and search result respectively.
1033 --- 2.0.1 2003/04/25
1035 Redhat package is now several packages: libyaz (runtime libraries),
1036 libyaz-devel (development and documentation, and yaz (utility programs).
1037 Package spec file by Morten Bøgeskov.
1039 New member 'schema' in struct bend_fetch_rr which the name of requested
1040 schema (SRW/SRU) for record (or NULL if none was given). The fetch
1041 handler MAY set this to reflect the schema of the returned record.
1043 New member 'display_term' in struct scan_entry. GFS now sets member entries
1044 and allocates scan entries to be filled by user scan handler. In previous
1045 version, entries member was allocated by the scan handler. That still works,
1046 but the GFS will ignore member display_term - assuming it was NOT set by
1047 the handler. The fact that the GFS now allocates the entries both allows
1048 for new members and makes a scan handler easier to write.
1050 Fix CQL lex buffer overflow.
1052 SRW/SRU recordPacking. For SRW default recordPacking is string. For
1053 SRU default recordPacking is string.
1055 SRU protocol support for frontend server.
1057 Fix compile bug for systems that have nl_langinfo but CODESET undefined.
1059 Added missing PQF transform rules for <= and >= . Thanks to Peter Popovics.
1061 Added scan for the ZOOM shell (zoomsh).
1065 * String Identifers for Schemas (Amendment 5).
1066 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/amend/am5.html
1067 Old definition for schema
1068 Odr_oid *schema; /* OPT */
1073 Z_InternationalString *uri;
1074 #define Z_Schema_oid 1
1075 #define Z_Schema_uri 2
1078 * resultCount parameter to Sort Response (Amendment 1).
1079 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/amend/am1.html
1081 Support for SRW 1.0 over HTTP. This is an optional feature and
1082 requires libxml2 to operate. Enable SOAP by specifying --with-xml2
1085 Generic frontend server supports HTTP/SOAP/SRW and Z39.50/BER
1086 on the same port. SRW SearchRetrieveRequests are mapped
1087 to bend_init,bend_search,bend_fetch,bend_close.
1089 Z39.50 Query Type-104 added - to facilitate CQL within Z39.50.
1091 CQL support. Source is directory 'cql'. CQL is supported in ZOOM
1092 (both SRW and Z39.50) and the YAZ client (Z39.50 only).
1094 ZOOM connections are SRW based if schem http is used for hostname
1095 in connect, e.g. z = ZOOM_connection_new("http://myserver");
1096 ZOOM_query may be of type CQL, e.g. ZOOM_query_cql(q, "dc.title=x");
1098 CCL proximity operators !n, %n converts to PQF @prox 0 n 1 2 k 2
1099 and @prox 0 n 0 1 k 2 respectively, meaning: exlusion=false,
1100 distance=n, order=true/false, relation=le, prox unit=word. If
1101 n is omitted, distance 1 is used.
1103 Fixed problem with C compiler include path in wrong order.
1105 For TCP/IP COMSTACK, set recv buffer to an appropriate "large" value
1106 on Solaris. Patch from Ko van der Sloot.
1108 New MARC decode API. All new functions operate on a yaz_marc_t
1109 handle. The most important new functions are: yaz_marc_create,
1110 yaz_marc_decode_{buf,wrbuf}, yaz_marc_destroy, .. to create handler,
1111 decode and destroy respectively. Decoder can produce formats
1112 MARC line, simple XML, OAI MARC and MARC XML (LoC). See
1113 include/yaz/marcdisp.h.
1115 YAZ Iconv utility now supports MARC8 decoding (marc8.c). Converts
1116 to UTF-8, UCS-32, wchar_t or Latin-1.
1118 * Prototypes for yaz_iconv_-functions moved to separate header
1119 include/yaz/yaz-iconv.h.
1121 Make a few private functions 'static' in unix.c. This prevents
1122 duplicate unix_close in PHP with YAZ and imap. PHP Bug 20977.
1124 For ZOOM connection, the options targetImplementation{Id,Name,Version}
1125 are set when Init Response is received.
1127 New function ZOOM_connection_error_x similar to ZOOM_connection_error
1128 but returns diagnostic set as well.
1130 New function yaz_strerror which is a portable wrapper for
1131 strerror/strerror_r/GetLastMessage.
1133 * ZOOM_record_get supports type "xml" in which case MARC XML (from LOC)
1134 is returned for MARC. If type is "oai", then OAI MARC is returned.
1136 Fix creation of lib/yaz-config so it works if srcdir != objdir. Patch
1139 --- 1.9.2 2002/11/26
1141 yaz_marc_decode uses OAI MARC as XML format for ISO2709 records.
1143 Fix bad race conditions on SIGTERM and terminate gracefully in
1146 Move retrieval (data1) module to Zebra since nobody seems to be
1149 Add GRS-1 render for ZOOM using same format as yaz-client.
1151 --- 1.9.1 2002/10/05
1153 Added man pages: yaz-client(1), yaz-ztest(8), yaz(7), zoomsh(1).
1155 Fix broken ESpec handling in data1 module.
1157 SGML reader parses comments and makes them part of the data1 tree.
1159 Added several type casts so that YAZ compiles as C++ code.
1161 ZOOM didn't handle PDU encoding failures properly.
1163 Added more Bib-1 diagnostics (approved extensions).
1165 GNU configure: better check for iconv.
1167 More portable use of accept, getpeername. Check for socklen_t. Use
1168 int/size_t if socklen_t is not defined.
1172 PQF parser rejects bad queries - including those with extra
1173 characters in them. PQF parser used to silently ignore that.
1174 Cleaner API for PQF added, which allows you to get detailed
1175 error information for bad queries (see yaz/pquery.h).
1177 Fixed bug in ZOOM_record_get for type "database".
1179 Implemented mini iconv library supporting conversions between
1180 UTF-8, UCS4, UCS4LE and ISO-8859-1. Implemented in util/siconv.c.
1182 * Removed XML reader (d1_expat.c). It's part of Zebra instead.
1184 --- 1.8.9 2002/08/20
1186 Fixed ZOOM C record cache so that preferredRecordSyntax and
1187 elementSetName is used to check for already fetched records.
1189 --- 1.8.8 2002/08/02
1191 Added three members in bend_initrequest structure to facilitate
1192 character set negotiation.
1194 Fixed a bug in frontend server that could cause indefinite
1195 loops under rare conditions.
1197 Revised character set utilities (charneg.h) so that encoding
1198 UCS-4, UCSA-4, UTF-16 and UTF-8 are encoded non-privately.
1200 For PQF, directive @term <type> sets term type for Scan/Search.
1201 Here <type> is general, string, numeric, null. The term type
1202 is inherited - just like @attr.
1204 New call odr_set_charset that sets character set conversion for
1205 international-strings on a ODR stream. Prototype is:
1206 int odr_set_charset(ODR o, const char *to, const char *from);
1207 The InternationalString is still represented as C string in YAZ
1208 so native strings of type UTF-8, ASCII, etc. will work (UTF-16
1209 won't). On the protocol level, you can use any encoding.
1211 Support for UNIX sockets in ZOOM.
1213 Solaris recv sometimes returns errno == ENOENT. It is treated as
1214 EINPROGRESS. COMSTACK patch by Ko van der Sloot.
1216 New COMSTACK of type UNIX Socket. Use "unix:/path" as address for
1217 both client and server. Code by Morten Bøgeskov.
1219 --- 1.8.7 2002/05/22
1221 On Windows ZOOM functions are of type __stdcall rather than __cdecl, so
1222 that they can be used directly from Visual Basic. You must recompile
1223 your windows APP if you're using ZOOM.
1225 Character Set and Language Negotiation(3) for ZOOM API and YAZ client.
1226 Commands "lang" and "charset" sets language and character set respectively.
1227 Options "lang" and "charset" is interpreted by the ZOOM API. Note, these
1228 are not part of the official ZOOM spec) All is due to Oleg Kolobov.
1230 Attributes from multiple CCL fields may be OR'ed rather than merged
1231 using directive "@field or". Fields are still merged by default -
1232 equivalent to "@field merge".
1234 Fixed bug in ZOOM connect that occurred on OpenBSD (maybe others). Patch
1237 Fixed bug in zget for parameter ExtendedServicesResponse.
1241 --- 1.8.6 2002/03/25
1243 Added PQF feature: '@attr type=value' may be written as '@type=value'.
1245 Client displays USR.1:SearchResult-1 (hits per term).
1247 Additional Search Info for search in Generic Frontend Server.
1249 Fixed CCL parsing of "field=s".
1251 WIN32 installer - using the excellent NSIS software from nullsoft.
1253 Fixed CCL parsing of "field = - <number>".
1255 Added function yaz_marc_decode that decodes MARC for line mode
1256 display or XML (similar to that used by JZKit).
1258 Fixed BER decoding of OPTIONAL CHOICE. The bug didn't affect the
1259 Z39.50. But ISO/ILL was, however.
1261 Added patch by Rustam T. Usmanov that implements Z39.50 duplicate
1262 detection service (Z39.50-1995 Amendment 2) and Language Negotiation (3).

1267 --- 1.8.5 2002/02/03
1269 New YAZ client features: Command completion and new commands:
1270 push_command, set_apdufile, set_marcdump, set_cclfields, register_oid.
1271 Code provided by Jacob Poulsen.
1273 New call oid_trav, that visits all registered OIDs via callback.
1275 Function ZOOM_record_get now returns const char pointer rather than
1276 void pointer. It saves a lot of type casts.
1278 For YAZ client, command "auth" now allows you to set authentication
1279 in IdPass style. It is enabled when three tokens are given - order
1280 is user, group and password.
1282 Fix memory leaks in MARC record handling for ZOOM.
1284 New option for YAZ client, -k <kilobytes> that sets
1285 maximum record size. Similar to -k option for generic frontend
1286 server and yaz-ztest.
1288 More fixes for scan. Non-zero stepSize handled. OID's fixes.
1290 Prefix query parser reports "fail" when bad attribute set is given.
1292 Fix in MARC decoder. Proximity logging. Fix for attribute set
1293 in scan handler for server. Patches by Shigeru Ishida.
1295 SSL/COMSTACK updates. cs_rcvconnect completes SSL handshake. ZOOM
1298 Configure option --with-openssl=<dir> now works when a directory is
1299 specified. Patch provided by Morten Bøgeskov.
1301 New option for YAZ client, -u <auth>, that sets authentication.
1303 ZOOM fix: error information was sometimes "missing", since error
1304 was cleared/reset too when it shouldn't.
1306 ZOOM_record_get returns ISO2709 buffer when "raw" is given.
1308 --- 1.8.4 2002/01/04
1310 Scan for ZOOM API. New object ZOOM_scanset. New functions
1311 ZOOM_connection_scan, ZOOM_scanset_size, ZOOM_scanset_term and
1312 ZOOM_scanset_destroy.
1314 New ZOOM function, ZOOM_connection_last_event, that returns type
1315 of last event (such as "receive data", "send data", "apdu received",
1318 New ZOOM option, schema, that specifies schema for retrieval.
1320 New CCL feature. Qualifiers can be aliases for one or more
1321 other qualifiers (if more than one is given, OR is used).
1323 ZOOM uses named result sets if target supports it.
1325 Two new YAZ client commands: . (dot, which sources a script of YAZ
1326 client commands), and ! (to execute shell command.). Implemented
1329 Working on Debian packages.
1331 --- 1.8.3 2001/11/19
1333 YAZ client enables named result sets only if target supports it.
1335 *** ZOOM. Prefix for ZOOM definitions changed from Z3950_ to ZOOM_.
1337 * ZOOM. Removed Z3950_connection_host. Use Z3950_connection_option_get
1338 with key="host" to get same result.
1340 * ZOOM. Added Z3950_record_clone and removed Z3950_resultset_get.
1341 Function Z3950_resultset_record(s) returns references to records
1342 "owned" by resultset. To become owner use Z3950_record_clone.
1344 Function z_ext_record handles Extended Services. Thanks to
1347 --- 1.8.2 2001/11/12
1349 CCL Parser fix: ignore token comma when dealing with and-lists.
1351 Documentation updates for COMSTACK.
1353 * ZOOM changes. Query object renamed from Z3950_search to Z3950_query.
1354 Changed prototype Z3950_records. For some functions, int parameters
1355 were changed to size_t.
1357 TCP/IP COMSTACK no longer uses getprotobyname to avoid memory leak
1360 New MARC decode/display function, marc_display_exl, which properly rejects
1361 non-ISO2709 records. YAZ client uses it.
1363 --- 1.8.1 2001/10/29
1365 Fix bug: local attribute set wasn't set correctly in PQF strings.
1369 * Old Z39.50 codecs no longer supported.
1371 Added ZOOM C binding. See http://zoom.z3950.org/
1373 Renamed states for COMSTACKs to avoid confusion with events.
1375 Implemented cs_look and proper cs_rcvconnect.
1377 Fixed COMSTACK error that occurred on HPUX. Fix by Giannis Kosmas.
1379 Configure detects POSIX threads on OpenBSD.
1381 When sort flag 'i' was specified in yaz-client the caseSensitivy flag
1382 was set to a wrong value. Thanks to Robert Sanderson for reporting this.
1384 When error is returned from present handler, non-surrogate diagnostic
1385 is returned in present response (and fetch handler is no longer called).
1387 * Minor adjustments to pquery parser (PQF). Token characters may be
1388 escaped by using backslash (C-style).
1390 PQF parser allows string attribute values to be specified. For @attr,
1391 non-numeric characters after the equal-sign are treated as strings
1392 (e.g. @attr 9=title).
1394 CCL trunction character may be defined (@truncation in file)
1396 * function zget_ExtendedServicesRequest sets waitAction to
1397 waitIfPossible (was wait).
1399 Added cs_set_blocking to set change blocking mode of a COMSTACK. Thanks
1402 CCL operator names may be set in field definition files (CCL_bibset).
1403 See ccl/bib1 for an example.
1405 Fixes in ASN.1 compiler for C++ compatibility.
1407 * Renamed members "and" and "or" in struct Z_Operator to "op_and"
1408 and "op_or" to avoid conflict with C++.
1410 Fixed problem with GNU readline detection on Redhat 7.0.
1412 Added step-size for Scan backend handler.
1414 Fixed bug that made the frontend server crash when no attribute
1415 set was specified for scan.
1417 Front-end server automatically switches to original working directory
1418 when installed as an NT service. Previously -w had to be specified to
1421 Added extended attributes for retrieval module (data1), so that data1
1422 records carry d1_readXML/SGML attributes. d1_read also supports
1423 null-data rules ( <tag/>)
1425 On UNIX when POSIX threads are available, a separate library libyazthread
1426 is created. Programmers should link with that library and the yaz library
1427 when using threads. The reason for the split was that some applications
1428 on Linux, such as Apache, doesn't work well when using shared objects that
1431 Added SSL support for the COMSTACK. You start yaz-client and yaz-ztest
1432 (or any frontend server) in SSL mode by specifying ssl: followed by
1433 address. Only tested on UNIX.
1435 Added feature for CCL module. Virtual structure s=al or s=ol generates
1436 and-list and or-list respectively instead of phrase search.
1440 * Added prefix "yaz_" for the functions log_init.., log_file.. and
1441 log_mask_str. This was done to avoid name conflicts with other libraries
1442 (such as other PHP extensions).
1444 Added raw OID member for preferred record syntax (request_format_raw)
1445 and returned record syntax (output_format_raw) for backend fetch method.
1447 Config file yaz-config now accepts options so that it returns specific
1448 compile settings, etc. Thanks to Morten Bøgeskov <morten@bogeskov.dk>
1450 Shared library support for UNIX using GNU libtool.
1452 * Modified backend interface. Request/Response struct's replaced by
1453 one read/write C struct. For example bend_fetchrequest and
1454 bend_fetchresult have been replaced by single bend_fetch_rr struct.
1455 Every handler - even search has to be registered in bend_init
1456 handler. This means that the YAZ library no longer refers to
1457 external functions and it makes it possible to make the whole
1458 thing a single DLL/SO.
1460 Added Segment handler for backend server.
1462 Added Zmbol/Zebra administrative functions to YAZ client.
1464 Threaded frontend server on UNIX (when POSIX Threads are available).
1465 Starting the server with option -T enables multi-threading.
1469 Added configure option --enable-comp/disable-comp to control use
1470 of YAZ ASN.1 compiler. Use --disable-comp to use the old *coders
1471 located in sub directory asn.
1473 YAZ ASN.1 compiler renamed to yaz-comp in sub directory. It's installed
1474 in ${exec_prefix}/bin along with the other programs yaz-client and
1477 GNU automake used to maintain makefiles.
1479 Added several OID's.
1481 Changed retrieval module so that we can load records with no abstract
1482 syntax defined. Tagpaths in these records are fully composed of string
1485 Implemented ISO ILL protocol. Refer to stuff in sub directory ill.
1489 On UNIX, the generated makefile now supports a proper 'make install'.
1490 The prefix can be set via GNU configure to set the install location
1491 (default is /usr/local).
1493 * YAZ programs client and ztest were renamed to yaz-client and
1494 yaz-ztest to avoid conflicts when users install YAZ in "standard"
1495 locations, such as /usr/bin,/usr/local/bin,etc.
1497 * YAZ Header files were moved from include to include/yaz. YAZ Header
1498 files are referred to as include <yaz/log.h> rather than <log.h>.
1499 The YAZ include path (-I ..) is therefore the same as before. Programmers
1500 should update their #include statements or use -Ipath/include/yaz
1501 instead. The main motivation for doing this change is that YAZ header files
1502 can be installed in "standard" locations /usr/include,/usr/local/include
1503 without introducing conflicts, since ALL YAZ header files are stored
1504 in subdirectory yaz (under /usr/include for example).
1506 Compilation of YAZ for WIN32 is now handled by an nmake-style makefile
1507 rather than project/workspace files. We switched because project files
1508 are incompatible between Visual C++ 5 and 6. Refer to windows.txt for
1511 Changed name of logging function, logf, to yaz_log, to prevent name
1512 clash with some math-log functions. The YAZ header log.h defines logf
1513 to yaz_log (#define) so there should be no incompatibilities by this
1516 Added bend_start/bend_stop handlers for server. These handler are
1517 called on start/stop of server. For windows they are called whenever
1518 a service is started/stopped.
1520 * YAZ now auto-generates decoders/encoders for the Z39.50 protocol using
1521 a fairly small ASN.1 compiler written in Tcl. The compiler is located
1522 in util/yc.tcl. The auto-generated C code structures are, in a few
1523 cases, incompatible with the old decoders. There are differences in the
1524 following C structures Z_DiagRec, Z_External, Z_SortRequest, Z_SortResponse,
1525 Z_AttributesPlusTerm, Z_ProximityOperator, Z_DefaultDiagFormat.
1526 The preprocessor variable ASN_COMPILED is defined when the compiled
1527 ASN.1 is being used. Encoder/decoder routines as well as the Z39.50
1528 protocol ASN.1 is located sub directory <tt>z39.50</tt>. If you
1529 wish to use the old encoders/decoders you can specify --disable-yc
1532 Assigned OID for old DB Update (VAL_DBUPDATE0). Updated YAZ compiled
1533 version so that it supports both new - and old version of DB Update
1535 * Added 'name' parameter to ODR encoder/decoder routines to facilitate
1536 pretty ODR print. Updated whole Z39.50 encoder/decoder to reflect the
1537 change. The name parameter can be set to 0 in which no name is specified
1538 for the construction. The macros odr_implicit and odr_explicit sets name
1539 parameter to zero for the construction involved. New macros
1540 odr_implicit_tag and odr_explicit_tag are similar to the others,
1541 except that a name parameter is added. For programmers' that don't use
1542 ODR they probably only need to change the call to z_APDU and z_External.
1544 Added access control facility by interfacing the TCP wrapper library.
1545 YAZ automatically attempts to find the TCP wrapper Library (-lwrap) and
1546 tcpd.h on Unix systems. For the server, option -d<daemon> specifies the
1547 name of the daemon and enables the access control as specified in
1548 hosts.allow/hosts.deny. Refer to man pages tcpd(8) and hosts_access(5).
1550 Fixed memory leak in ccl_find_str and ccl_qual_rm. Thanks to Hans van
1551 den Dool <H.M.vdnDool@kub.nl>.
1553 Added reference ID parameter to most functions in server API - refer
1554 to backend.h. Thanks to Hans van den Dool <H.M.vdnDool@kub.nl>.
1556 Changed name of ccl library to libccl.a (was ccl.a).
1558 Fixed bug in decoder for Explain (Category TargetInfo).
1560 Added support for GNU readline in client. Thanks to Jacob Poulsen
1561 <ja7@dbc.dk>. GNU configure attempts to detect if readline is available.
1563 * CHANGED DEFINITION OF ES: UPDATE (INCLUDING THE OID) to reflect the
1564 new definition from the ZIG. NOTE THIS IF YOU HAVE AN UPDATE
1565 IMPLEMENTATION! This change was made to the development version before
1566 the ZIG decided to retract the amendment. If any users MUST be
1567 compatible with the original Update definition, PLEASE CONTACT US, and
1568 we will include a separate definition corresponding to the old Update
1569 ES. Note that because of the change to the ASN.1 of the
1570 TaskPackageRecordStructure we cannot define a single structure that
1571 will support both versions.
1573 * Added const modifier to buffer parameter for some ODR/BER encoding
1574 routines: ber_dectag, ber_declen, odp_more_chunks, completeBER,
1575 completeWAIS, odr_dumpBER.
1577 Fixed bug in client.c which caused a crash when a scanResponse didn't
1578 contain positionOfTerm.
1580 * Fixed inconsistency in the ScanResponse/ListEntries protocol. This
1581 * will cause an error in a client if a non-YAZ target sends both a
1582 * list of Scan entries and non-surrogate diagnostics.
1584 Retrieval module enhancements. Tag sets may be typed in the reference
1585 to it. From the .abs-file the "tagset" directive takes a third optional
1586 integer type for the tag set referenced. From a .tag-file the "include"
1587 directive takes a third optional type as well. The old "type" directive
1588 in the tag set itself is still recognized but acts as the default type
1591 Backend interface change. Individual Scan terms returned from bend_scan
1592 may also be tagged as Surrogate Diagnostics. Refer to struct scan_entry
1593 in include/backend.h.
1595 Retrieval module enhancements. Multiple tag sets and attribute sets may
1596 be specified in abstract syntax specs. Revised the error/warning for
1597 logging messages reported by the retrieval module when reading the
1600 Object Identifier system (oid_..) changed. The API is backwards
1601 compatible but the oid-routines now allocates new OID's when needed.
1602 Raw OID's may be specified in oid_getvalbyname.
1604 YAZ now uses GNU configure to generate Makefile(s).
1606 * Minor changes in some of the member names of DeleteResultSetRequest and
1607 DeleteResultSetResponse. See include/proto.h.
1609 * Changed some C definitions regarding EXPLAIN record syntax (prt-exp.h)
1610 and added member 'languages' in TargetInfo (which was missing).
1612 Changed the way attribute sets are handled in the retrieval
1613 module. These are now cached, just like the abstract syntaxes
1616 Changed YAZ so that it links with compiled ASN.1.
1618 Added Explain-schema definitions and mapping routines. The following
1619 Explain categories have been implemented: AttributeDetails,
1620 AttributeSetInfo, DatabaseInfo, CategoryList and TargetInfo.
1622 Fixed minor bug in Windows version of Server Library.
1624 --- 1.4pl2+ 1998/4/17 (Released with Zebra)
1626 Added Extended Services to server (backend.h). Thanks to Charles Woodfield.
1628 Added EXTERNAL: UNIverse Resource Report (non-standard).
1630 Implemened odr_enum and odr_set_of functions to handle ASN.1 types
1631 ENUMERATED and SET OF.
1633 * Added 'const' to some of the char pointer arguments for the
1634 functions, data1_read_node, data1_getelementbytagname,
1635 data1_insert_taggeddata, data1_getesetbyname, data1_getelementbyname,
1638 Fixed bug in data1_insert_taggeddata - the last_child member of
1639 parent wasn't initialised.
1641 * Changed data1_read_record and data1_read_node so that the supplied
1642 "SGML"-buffer is read-only. In particular the resulting data1 - tree
1643 doesn't refer to any parts of the "SGML"-buffer.
1645 Fixed bug in server library (Windows version of statserv_remove).
1647 * Changed code so that it compiles as C++. The type definition
1648 of Odr_fun which is a member of Odr_arm was changed. The result is,
1649 that an explicit typecast is needed for the fun pointer when
1650 using Odr_arm - as in:
1651 {1, -1, -1, Z_IdAuthentication_idPass, (Odr_fun)z_IdPass},
1653 Updated TagSet-G and -M definitions (tagsetm.tag and tagsetg.tag).
1655 Implemented the new structured date and time definition as approved
1656 by the ZIG. Added schemaId element to the specificTag in Espec-1
1657 (also approved at the last ZIG). Thanks to RVDM.
1659 Added some Object identifiers (RVDM).
1661 Changed the Update Extended Service (RVDM).
1663 Added command "refid" to client which specifies referenceId for
1664 the following requests.
1666 Implemented extended service handling for server. See ztest.c
1667 for an example as well as backend.h. New handlers are registerd
1668 in the Init handler.
1670 * Changed interface for sort in server.
1672 Added new members to statserv_options_block. It allows a server
1673 to read options from another source than just the command line. Thanks
1674 to Charles Woodfield.
1676 * Changed definition of Z_Triple in file prt-grs.h - member boolean
1677 renamed to zboolean. Some C++ compilers complained about the name.
1679 Minor changes to gils.abs. Added index 's' (sort) on title
1680 and date/time-last-modified.
1682 --- 1.4pl2 1998/1/30
1684 Fixed bug in server library regarding inetd mode (-i). This bug
1685 was introduced by release 1.4.
1687 --- 1.4pl1 1998/1/29
1689 Added sort facility in client and backend server interface.
1691 Fixed problem with dependencies in Makefile(s).
1693 Fixed bugs for encoders/decoders of extended services and
1696 Implemented sub-tree feature for schemas. Sub-trees are
1697 referenced in *.abs-files. See explain.abs for an example
1698 of the use of this feature.
1700 Modified bib1.att; local attributes for ANY didn't include
1701 ANY itself (only affects use of the retrieval module).
1703 Fixed bug in plain SGML reader in function data1_read_node:
1704 tags with prefix "var" was incorrectly interpreted as variants.
1706 Added feature "sub-schemas" to enable references to - and definitions
1707 of - group of elements.
1709 * Removed member parent from type data1_element (in data1.h).
1711 Implemented function odr_nullval() that returns the value of
1714 * Removed member num_children from data1_node (in data1.h).
1716 Made NT service interface part of the server library. The
1717 function statserv_main uses the NT service when required and
1718 calls the statserv_start / statserv_close routines.
1720 Routine zget_SearchRequest and zget_PresentRequest fills
1721 resultSetName/Id member with "default" instead of "Default".
1723 Fixed memory leak in server. Request queue member wasn't freed.
1725 Fixed nmem_exit so that memory is freed.
1729 Revised the CCL parser utility to be thread safe.
1731 Added function, oid_ent_to_oid, to replace the function
1732 oid_getoidbyent, which is not thread safe.
1734 * Added nmem_init and nmem_exit to initialize and release
1735 NMEM resources. Function nmem_init should be called once in the
1736 initial thread before NMEM/ODR is used. statserv.c and client.c
1737 have been changed accordingly. The change was necessary to make
1738 NMEM thread safe. The NMEM memory pool is shared amongst threads
1739 in a process. Unix-based applications will still work fine without
1742 Added NT Services interface for the the Z39.50 (statserv) Server.
1743 Refer to the ztest.c source on the usage.
1745 Windows 95/NT port using MSVC5.0. Project files are included in the
1748 * Defined new 'global' handle for the retrieval (data1) system. The
1749 new handled, data1_handle, describes the state of the data1 system.
1750 This handle is passed as first argument to virtually all
1751 data1 related routines. The functions data1_create and data1_destroy
1752 creates and destroys a data1 handle respectively.
1754 Added ODR encode stream member to all backend request structures
1755 init, search, scan etc. This stream should be used to allocate all
1756 memory used for the response when thread safe operation is needed.
1758 Changed the comstack utility, cs_addstr, to be thread safe. The
1759 returned hostname string returned by the function is now part the
1762 Added comstack utility, cs_straddr, which replaces the tcpip_strtoaddr
1763 function. The cs_straddr takes a COMSTACK handle as argument, so this
1764 function must be used after cs_create and before bind/connect.
1765 This function is thread safe.
1767 Moved test server to 'ztest' directory - generic server code still
1768 in 'server' directory.
1770 Made prefix query (pquery.c) utility thread safe.
1772 Added new function modifier YAZ_EXPORT to 'export' public DLL
1773 functions when using windows (see include/yconfig.h).
1775 Added definitions to the OID database (util/oid.c) (RVDM).
1777 Added new BIB-1 diagnostic messages to the handler diagbib1_str.
1779 Added call to ccl_rpn_delete in client program.
1781 Added ODR argument to ccl_rpn_query and ccl_scan_query to provide
1782 release of RPN structure.
1784 Added support for C++, headers uses extern "C" for public definitions.
1785 With input from RVDM.
1787 In handling of SEQUENCE OF: Counter set to zero when SEQUENCE OF is absent.
1788 Thanks to Ronald van der Meer (RVDM).
1790 Added initializers (zget_ routines) for a number of PDUs. Thanks to RVDM.
1792 Added support for private extensions to the OID database
1793 (oid_setprivateoids()). Thanks to RVDM.
1795 Added optional, physical ANY (key replication)
1797 Fixed null-reference problem in GRS-1 output filter.
1799 Proximity operator added to Prefix Query Format (PQF).
1801 In test client command "base" accepts multiple databases.
1803 Fixed bug in cs_close stack that caused trouble with WINSOCK.
1807 Fixed tagging bug in ResourceReportResponse PDU encoder/decode.
1809 Smallish bug-fixes in the new encoders/decoders (explain).
1811 Bug fixed in DeleteRequest.
1813 Fixed tagging bug of type 101 query in SearchRequest-Query PDU encoder/decoder.
1815 Fixed tagging bug in ResourceReportResponse PDU encoder/decode.
1817 Added SOIF syntax (using private OID for now) to retrieval module and client.
1819 Added Update extended service.
1821 Added SearchResult-1 additional info structure.
1823 Added optional CCL (ISO8777) interpreter as separate module. Available
1826 --- 1.2 1996/6/10 (1st anniversary release)
1828 Added Summary record syntax. Lightly tested.
1830 Added OPAC record syntax. Untested.
1832 Added ResourceReport service encoders/decoders. Untested.
1834 Fixed bug in z_Unit - wrong tagging on unitSystem.
1836 Fixed bug in the DiagRecs decoder.
1838 Added options for max PDU size and session timeout to frontend-server.
1840 Added documentation of query-language parsers and other supporting utilities.
1842 [frontend-server] Added Attribute set to the bend_scanrequest API.
1844 [frontend-server] NextResultSetPosition was sometimes set incorrectly when
1845 surrogate diagnostics were generated.
1847 [retrieval] Allow multiple local values for attribute.
1849 [retrieval] Allow multiple attributes per element in .abs files. index type.
1851 [retrieval] Added Summary tagset, abstract syntax, and d1-node/ASN filter.
1853 --- 1.1pl2 1996/4/10
1855 Minor changes, mostly specific to Zebra's requirements (retrieval)
1859 Repaired bug in frontend server when running multiple listening
1860 endpoints in dynamic mode.
1862 z_External() now won't break if a known, ASN.1 value comes encapsulated
1863 in an octet-string. The value will pass through unmodified in an Odr_oct.
1865 Added a bit of code to the demo client to decode & display
1866 ASN.1-structured records represented in the octet-aligned branch of
1867 the EXTERNAL CHOICE. Thanks to CAS for prodding us to finally do this.
1869 Added z_ext_getentbyref() to the ASN module. Doc updated.
1871 * Completed the SCAN definition in the ASN module. This may break SCAN
1872 code based on older YAZ-versions at compile-time. The fix is easy -
1875 * Added 'displayTerm' and OtherInformation to the TermInfo structure
1876 under the SCAN definition. Remember to initialize this, server-people.
1878 Comstack should now support the WAIS protocol in TCP/IP mode. Note
1879 that this does not extend to ODR and ASN.
1881 Comstack allows insertion of established socket (primarily for
1882 inetd-operation of servers). Doc updated.
1884 Front-end server can now start from the inetd in TCP mode. Doc
1887 --- 1.0pl4 1996/1/24
1891 Fixed small problem in SUTRS-filter. A newline was sometimes inserted before
1892 the rank and record number.
1894 Adjustments to the frontend server.
1896 Fixed diagnostic BER dumper. It ignored the file argument.
1900 Various changes to retrieval module.
1902 Changed the union discriminators of the protocol files from enums to
1903 ints paired with #defines.
1905 *Changed oident.class to oident.oclass to avoid a reserved word in C++
1908 *Changed operator in the RPN structure to 'roperator', again to avoid a
1911 Fixed problems in Explain decoders/encoders.
1913 --- 1.0pl2 1995/12/6
1915 Memory bug in log module fixed.
1917 --- 1.0pl1 1995/12/5
1919 Occasional malloc() of 0 bytes fixed in d1_espec.c.
1921 Bug in Explain DatabaseInfo module fixed.
1923 Some '\r' snuck into one or two of the ret'l config tables. A curse on Windows.
1927 The shift to v1.0 signals that we now consider the *core* functionality
1928 of YAZ reasonably stable (the core being more or less equivalent to
1929 Z39.50-1992). Some of the really nifty v3 stuff is still not heavily
1930 tested (Explain not at all - though that will happen soonish).
1932 Minor changes to code to support Windows port.
1934 Various minor changes after we're getting to use GRS-1 & co. more.
1936 Added Espec-1 format.
1938 Added VisibleString field body type to GRS-1. It is illegal acc. to my copy
1939 of the protocol and it cannot be selected when encoding (maps into 'string'
1940 when decoding). Needed to talk to some servers.
1942 Demo client can request simple element set names.
1944 Added Diagnostic Format encoders/decoders.
1946 Added simple Close handling to frontend server (no hooks for resource
1947 reporting yet), and demonstration client.
1949 Added cs_addrstr() command to COMSTACK to retrieve peer hostname/address.
1951 --- 1.0b3 1995/08/24
1953 Fixed bug in the frontend-server. The numberOfRecordsReturned field was
1954 handled incorrectly when records were requested in the searchResponse. This
1955 will only affect you if you use the frontend-server.
1957 Added GRS-1 encoders/decoders to the service-level API. Lightly tested.
1958 Test-client will ask for and print GRS1. Ztest will return dummy records
1961 Added Explain encoders/decoders to the service-level API. Untested.
1963 Added Extended Services: Item Order encoders and decoders to the Service-
1964 level API. Untested. We could use a recent copy of the pertinent bits
1965 of the ILL protocol to add those bits.
1967 Added diagnostic format 1 encoders/decoders to the service-level API.
1970 Moved pretty-printing of structure-wrappers ({..}) from odr_seq.c to
1971 odr_cons.c, which causes a more correct output.
1973 Fixed handling of searchRequest in frontend server. NextResultSetPosition
1974 was always set to 0 when no records were requested in the searchRequest.
1976 * Added better external-handling. This shouldn't harm old code that
1977 *encodes* externals. It can break code that looks for a
1978 'single-ASN1-type' representation, since those types that are known
1979 are now decoded immediately. Look at the SUTRS sample code in
1980 seshigh.c and client.c. Documentation updated.
1982 Handling of structured records in bend_fetchresponse. Length -1 marks
1983 structured record, type is deduced from format field.
1985 --- 1.0b2 1995/06/27
1986 Fairly quick maintenance release to add SUTRS support.
1988 Fixed handling of SUTRS records in the demonstration client.
1990 * Added format field to the bend_fetchrequest and bend_fetchresponce
1991 structures of the backend API (frontend server). When the record is
1992 returned, the value of the format field is mapped to an OID. The
1993 value VAL_SUTRS will also cause a slightly different ASN.1 packaging
1994 of the record. The special value VAL_NONE in the bend_request means
1995 that no specific format was requested by the client. Documentation
1996 updated accordingly. Test server (ztest) will return a fixed dummy
1997 SUTRS record if your client requests SUTRS.
1999 Documentation updated accordingly.
2001 You can now set external libraries and RANLIB support in the top-level
2005 First public release.
