- updated to 1.4.9-stable:
o event_add would not return error for some backends; from Dean McNamee
o Clear the timer cache on entering the event loop; reported by Victor Chang
o Only bind the socket on connect when a local address has been provided;
reported by Alejo Sanchez
o Allow setting of local port for evhttp connections to support millions
of connections from a single system; from Richard J ones.
o Clear the timer cache when leaving the event loop; reported by Robin Haberkorn
o Fix a typo in setting the global event base; reported by lance.
o Fix a memory leak when reading multi-line headers
o Fix a memory leak by not running explicit close detection for server connections
- updated to 1.4.8-stable:
o Match the query in DNS replies to the query in the request; from Vsevolod Stakhov.
o Fix a merge problem in which name_from_addr returned pointers to the stack; found by Jiang Hong.
o Do not remove Accept-Encoding header
- updated to 1.4.7-stable:
o Fix a bug where headers arriving in multiple packets were not parsed; fix from Jiang Hong; test by me.
- updated to 1.4.6-stable:
o evutil.h now includes <stdarg.h> directly
o switch all uses of [v]snprintf over to evutil
o Correct handling of trailing headers in chunked replies; from Scott Lamb.
o Support multi-line HTTP headers; based on a patch from Moshe Litvin
o Reject negative Content-Length headers; anonymous bug report
o Detect CLOCK_MONOTONIC at runtime for evdns; anonymous bug report
o Fix a bug where deleting signals with the kqueue backend would cause subsequent adds to fail
o Support multiple events listening on the same signal; make signals
regular events that go on the same event queue; problem
report by Alexander Drozdov.
o Deal with evbuffer_read() returning -1 on EINTR|EAGAIN; from Adam Langley.
o Fix a bug in which the DNS server would incorrectly set the type of a cname reply to a.
o Fix a bug where setting the timeout on a bufferevent would take not effect if the event was already pending.
o Fix a memory leak when using signals for some event bases; reported by Alexander Drozdov.
o Add libevent.vcproj file to distribution to help with Windows build.
o Fix a problem with epoll() and reinit; problem report by Alexander Drozdov.
o Fix off-by-one errors in devpoll; from Ian Bell
o Make event_add not change any state if it fails; reported by Ian Bell.
o Do not warn on accept when errno is either EAGAIN or EINTR

- split out devel and shared library package.
- drop static libs
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jul 3 11:57:22 CEST 2008 - meissner@suse.de
- upgraded to version 1.4.5-stable:
o Fix connection keep-alive behavior for HTTP/1.0
o Fix use of freed memory in event_reinit; pointed out by Peter Postma
o Constify struct timeval * where possible; pointed out by Forest
Wilkinson
o allow min_heap_erase to be called on removed members; from liusifan.
o Rename INPUT and OUTPUT to EVRPC_INPUT and EVRPC_OUTPUT. Retain
INPUT/OUTPUT aliases on on-win32 platforms for backwards compatibility.
o Do not use SO_REUSEADDR when connecting
o Fix Windows build
o Fix a bug in event_rpcgen when generated fixed-sized entries
- upgraded to version 1.4.4-stable:
o Correct the documentation on buffer printf functions.
o Don't warn on unimplemented epoll_create(): this isn't a problem,
just a reason to fall back to poll or select.
o Correctly handle timeouts larger than 35 minutes on Linux with epoll.c.
This is probably a kernel defect, but we'll have to support old kernels
anyway even if it gets fixed.
o Fix a potential stack corruption bug in tagging on 64-bit CPUs.
o expose bufferevent_setwatermark via header files and fix high watermark
on read
o fix a bug in bufferevent read water marks and add a test for them
o introduce bufferevent_setcb and bufferevent_setfd to allow better
manipulation of bufferevents
o use libevent's internal timercmp on all platforms, to avoid bugs on
old platforms where timercmp(a,b,<=) is buggy.
o reduce system calls for getting current time by caching it.
o fix evhttp_bind_socket() so that multiple sockets can be bound by
the same http server.
o Build test directory correctly with CPPFLAGS set.
o Fix build under Visual C++ 2005.
o Expose evhttp_accept_socket() API.
o Merge windows gettimeofday() replacement into a new
evutil_gettimeofday() function.
o Fix autoconf script behavior on IRIX.
o Make sure winsock2.h include always comes before windows.h include.
