Wed Feb 28 2001 Markus Enzenberger <me@markus-enzenberger.de> * src/database.c: fix missing argument to snprintf Sun Feb 26 2001 Matija Nalis <mnalis-sf@voyager.hr> * fix for small glitches in options parting in src/noffle.c Sun Feb 25 2001 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * TODO,content.c,lock.c,server.c,server.h: Remove bug notice re: need to do a Cont_write on Lock_closeDatabases in case of unwritten content changes when releasing the lock. Update content to keep dirty flag and avoid unnecessary writes, and lock to signal server to re-read its group content info after the lock is released. Do NOT write content info on Lock_close if dirty, as the placeholder article in unsubscribed groups is currently done by adding it to the content when joining the group and deliberately not saving it unless another content modification takes place and thus causes the content to be saved. Thu Jan 25 2001 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/client.c,src/protocol.c,src/util.h,src/util.c: Common up repeated signal handler setting code into Utl_installSignalHandler. * src/client.c: Ensure Client_retrieveArt always exits with the global lock held. Previously it would be held on error, not held if OK. * src/lock.h,src/lock.c,src/noffle.c: Add lazy lock release. Only release the lock and close the databases if (a) another process signals us SIGUSR1 indicating it wants the lock, or (b) it is explicitly requested by a call to new function Lock_syncDatabases(). When waiting for the lock, SIGUSR1 the holding process every second. This is all an attempt to minimise the number of times we need to close and open the database. When (ha!) the database is replaced by something that can handle multiple simultaneous writers (with appropriate locking) this won't be necessary. Fri Dec 29 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/server.c: apply bug-fix for lazy group loading by Matija Nalis * TODO: Add handling of connection breakdown during a fetch to later section. Fri Dec 22 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * AUTHORS: add Matija Nalis Sun Dec 10 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/client.c: Extract common code from putCmd and putCmdNoFlush, reset client.lastStat when sending new command Tue Dec 05 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/fetch.c,src/Makefile.in: use sendmail instead of mail * src/fetch.c,src/pseudo.c,src/pseudo.h,src/server.c: applied patch from Matija Nalis: better handling of inconsistent counters at remote server; do not read overview on each group command Thu Oct 26 21:42:45 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/protocol.c: Fix bug in Prt_getLn if we should read a line starting with '\0' - according to the leafnode mailing list, this has been seen in the wild. * docs/inews.1,docs/noffle.1,docs/noffle.conf.5, packages/redhat/noffle.spec,src/configfile.h,src/configfile.c, src/noffle.c,src/post.h,src/post.c: Removed use of getopt_long, and added inews mode - the Noffle executable behaves as inews if invoked as inews. This includes adding From: and Organization: headers if necessary - add configs to override defaults for the From: domain and specify the organization. For all my fellow trn-heads out there, and users of any other ageing newsreader that expects inews. Updated RPM spec to create inews link to noffle on install. * src/server.c: When replying to a command, generate the reply into a buffer, release the lock and then send the reply, so we don't hog the lock should the reply stall for some network reason. Sun Oct 15 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * acconfig.h,config.h.in,configure.in,src/Makefile.in,src/fetch.c: Applied patch by Paul Slootman: using the mail program is replaced by sendmail (SENDMAILPROG variable). Sat Sep 02 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * NEWS,src/client.c,src/protocol.c,src/protocol.h,src/server.c: Added timeout to Prt_getLn to avoid Noffle hanging if the connection breaks down during a fetch. Sun Sep 10 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/Makefile.am: Added filter.c, filter.h * src/fetch.c: Fixed a bug in Fetch_init, that triggered an assertion if connection to remote server failed. Wed Aug 23 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/post.c: do no longer always replace invalid message-IDs. Wed Aug 16 00:03:50 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * Permit 'k' and 'm' suffices after numbers in filter rules. Fri Aug 11 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/noffle.c: Minor bug fix. Noffle no longer tries to unsubscribe groups that are already unsubscribed. Wed Aug 9 22:02:21 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/client.c: Use plain LIST instead of LIST ACTIVE if possible for compatability with old servers. * src/client.c,src/fetch.c: Fix fetching bugs that could potentially have left the lock in the wrong state. * docs/noffle.conf.5,src/Makefile.in,src/client.c,src/configfile.c, noffle.conf.example: Add first-cut article filtering. Note you will need to run 'configure' again to re-generate src/Makefile. Wed Jul 26 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * Released version 1.0pre7 Tue Jul 25 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/client.c: Added GMT to NEWGROUPS command. Mon 24 Jul 20:30:05 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/database.h,src/database.c,src/server.c: Redo XHDR and XPAT to handle 'XHDR <msgid>' and 'XPAT <msgid>'. Common up code shared by XHDR and XPAT. * src/server.c,packages/redhat/noffle.spec: Remove pipe through sort(1) in printGroups() and dependency on textutil(RedHat)/ textutils(SuSE) packages in RPM. The RPM now works on RedHat and derivatives and SuSE. * src/server.c: Release lock while collecting POST article and while reporting XOVER x-y results. * src/server.c: Update group 'last accessed' timestamp when XOVER read. This for smooth working with 'trn' and other newsreaders that only read the XOVER unless an article read. I have newsgroups I want to scan but only infrequently read an article - I don't want them getting unsubscribed. * src/server.c: Change server read timeout to 2 secs, release the lock if we'v held it for 2 secs so we don't starve anybody else, and if reading a command when we don't hold the lock don't use timeout. * src/util.c: Fix Utl_newsDate and Utl_parseNewsDateto work properly in all timezones. * src/lock.h,src/lock.c,src/noffle.c: Add 'fetch' lock to main lock, add Lock_gotLock() so we can test the main lock state (currently used only in ASSERTs). Fetch lock can be obtained WAIT or NOWAIT - latter fails immediately if lock not available. * src/client.c,src/fetch.c,src/noffle.c: Change lock handling during a fetch. Begin by obtaining 'fetch' lock - if busy, exit fetch immediately with error message. Then during fetch release the lock except when processing received data; in cases when incoming data is multi-line, collect all data first and then process. The aim is to ensure the lock isn't held with a network operation is in progress. I may carry on and extend this to all server operations as well (so a slow client can't hog the lock). * docs/noffle.conf.5,src/configfile.h,src/configfile.c,src/post.c, src/protocol.h,src/protocol.c: Add Path: header to newly posted articles. Provide default content - path-header in config overrides. Sat Jul 22 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * doc/NOTES: Removed section about GNUS hanging. It was caused by the "select" bug in Noffle. Sat Jul 22 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/server.c, src/protocol.c: Fixed a critical bug. "select" cannot be used with buffered stdio. This caused Noffle to hang with some readers (like tin). Sat Jul 22 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * request.c: Applied patch from M.Nalis: Modify Req_add() to append to requested/news.serv.er file each MsgID (and do not clean dirty flag, because otherwise writeRequestfile() would nuke us when overwriting file!). Wed Jul 19 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * Applied patch from M.Nalis for fixing a small problem with the printed counters while fetching articles. Wed Jul 19 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * Do not acquire global lock for printing help Mon Jul 17 11:19:06 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/client.h,src/client.c,src/noffle.c,docs/noffle.1: Remove '--query times' option. Creation time should always be time of creation on local server. * src/group.h,src/group.c: Remove Grp_setCreated(). Fri Jul 14 2000 Matija Nalis <mnalis-sf@voyager.hr> * Added counter for --fetch so one can see how much it is until the end of the transfer. Fri Jul 14 15:20:14 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/client.c,src/fetch.c,src/noffle.c: The groupinfo.lastupdate file was being used to (a) indicate the time of the last addition to group information, and (b) the last access to a server. With more than one server specified, (a) meant the groupinfo.lastupdate file was updated when new groups on the server (or a new fetch of the server group list) were processed. When server 2 came to use the file for (b) (to determine the time to specify when sending the NEWGROUPS command), the time was already set by server 1 and so server 2 would not see new groups. Fix this by creating lastupdate.<server> files for use (b). * src/client.c,src/group.c: Set initial group creation time to the current time. Previously it was set to 0, so new groups were not reported to a NEWGROUPS request unless 'noffle --query times' was run - even then, local groups would never be reported. Setting the creation time to the creation time on the local server makes things work properly. NB - the group creation time should always be reported as the creation time on the server; must fix this and remove '--query times'. This change will require 'noffle --query groups' to be re-run to create the server lastupdate.<server> files. Mon Jul 03 12:05:50 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/database.h,src/database.c,src/server.c: Fix 'XHDR <msgId>' and add 'XPAT <msgId>'. 'XHDR <msgId>' previously only worked if msgId was a message in the current group. My brain was really in neutral when I did that. Fri Jun 30 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/server.c: Leave online mode, if the connection to a remote server fails for avoiding a series of timeouts and holding the lock for a long time. Sun Jun 25 09:45:50 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/protocol.c: Another go at Prt_genMsgId. Yesterday I seeded the random element of the generated message id from the time; but what if two Noffle processes start in the same second? So switch to seeding with tv_usec instead. Sat Jun 24 21:21:47 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * packages/redhat/README, packages/redhat/noffle-expire, packages/redhat/noffle.spec: Initial versions. * src/noffle.c, docs/noffle.1: Remove --post (local|all) and replace with just --post. 'Approved:' header recognition removes need for --post varieties. * src/post.c: 'Approved:' header recognition, post to all external servers not just first, check all groups for post access before posting to one. Sat Jun 24 20:45:52 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/noffle.c: Set last accessed time on group when subscribed from command line. * src/post.c: Bugfix - Post_close on duplicate article post. * src/protocol.c: Fix bug in Prt_genMsgId that caused duplicate message IDs to be generated for posts in the same second. Sat Jun 22 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * doc/NOTES: Removed section about GNUS hanging. It was caused by the "select" bug in Noffle. Sat Jun 22 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/server.c, src/protocol.c: Fixed a critical bug. "select" cannot be used with buffered stdio. This caused Noffle to hang with some readers (like tin). Mon Jun 19 22:43:38 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/util.c, src/database.c: Fix header line reading bug. Tue Jun 13 21:31:32 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/noffle.c: Add include <sys/time.h> before sys/resource.h. Man page says you need it, FreeBSD won't compile without it. * src/client.c: Remove SA_INTERRUPT flag set from installSignalHandler. It is flagged as a no-op in the Linux headers, and does not exist on FreeBSD or Solaris. * src/configfile.h, src/configfile.c, src/protocol.h, src/protocol.c, src/post.c, docs/noffle.conf.5: Add 'path-header' and addition of Path: header to posted articles if required. Tue Jun 13 07:27:21 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/configfile.h, src/configfile.c, src/database.c: Redo config expires routines to remove enumerator and replace with routine to obtain expire time for specified group. * src/configfile.h, src/configfile.c, src/server.c, noffle.conf.example, docs/noffle.conf.5: Change 'auto-subscribe-mode' to 'default-auto-subscribe-mode' and add 'auto-subscribe-mode <grp pattern> <mode>'. For the moment, spot old usage of 'auto-subscribe-mode' and interpret it as 'default-auto-subscribe-mode'. * src/client.c: Rename variable to remove compiler warning. Sat Jun 11 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * Prepare for version 1.0pre6 * configure.in: Removed warning options for warnings that are unavoidable with libgdbm Mon Jun 5 09:46:30 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/client.c, src/fetch.c, src/group.c, src/group.h, src/noffle.c: Don't track remote message number read unless subscribed to a group. This stops 'Missing articles' pseudos being generated when you join a group some time after doing the 'noffle --query groups' that first found the group, or if you resubscribe a while after unsubscribing. They will still be generated if articles are missed when a group is subscribed, in which case the pseudo message is entirely applicable. Sat Jun 03 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * docs/NOTES: removed the whole section about the mail2news gateway. It doesn't really work, because procmail forks for each mail and changing the posting allowed status is not atomic. Thu Jun 01 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * docs/NOTES: Added section about "replace-messageid" option in the Mail-News-Gateway chapter. Mon May 29 19:12:47 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/client.c: Fix spelling mistake in comment. * docs/noffle.1: Add a little bit more to the description of --online. Mon May 29 18:28:25 CEST 2000 Uwe Hermann <uh1763@bingo-ev.de> * configure, configure.in: Changed the --enable-debug option of configure. It now accepts the parameters 'no', 'min' and 'yes', i.e. no compiler- warnings, minimum compiler-warnings and maximum compiler-warnings. Default is 'min'. Stable releases should have 'no' as default, IHMO. * NEWS: Update. Fri May 26 11:38:27 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * docs/NOTES: Added notes on knode. * src/client.c: Corrected comment. Thu May 25 22:03:56 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/post.c: Fixed stupid bug in article checking code where a correctly formatted Date: line would have the "Date: " removed before writing the outgoing file. Remote servers, not unnaturally, get upset about this. Mea culpa :-( Sat May 20 22:10:48 CEST 2000 Uwe Hermann <uh1763@bingo-ev.de> * docs/Makefile.am, docs/Makefile.in: Added INTERNALS to docs/Makefile.am, so that it is included in the distribution by 'make distcheck'. * docs/NOTES: Added info about pan versions 0.7.6 and 0.8 Sat May 20 11:46:54 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/client.c: Closer perusal of Son Of RFC1036 reveals that Supersedes: can have multiple message IDs. Do this. Sat May 20 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/noffle.c: always enable generation of core files. Fri May 19 14:02:44 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/util.h, src/util.c, src/database.c, src/pseudo.c, src/post.c: Redo Utl_rfc822Date to not use strftime - this was potentially wrong as it would only generate a conformant date string in English locales - and rename to Utl_newsDate because the date format is actually a subset of RFC822 - see Son Of RFC1036. Also add Utl_parseNewsDate, ensure the date on posted articles is conformant and replace if not, and implement observance of Expires: headers. * src/client.c: Observe Supersedes: headers on incoming articles. * src/content.c: Ensure if last article(s) in group are cancelled that article numbers aren't re-used. * docs/INTERNALS: Move INTERNALS to docs/. Thu May 18 13:22:36 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * Recognise explicit posting statuses of 'y', 'n' and 'the rest'. The latest IETF draft says you can have other statuses apart from 'm' (moderated group), and these should probably be treated in the same way as 'm', i.e. forwarded to the external server to worry about. Wed May 17 21:19:19 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/configfile.h, src/configfile.c, src/post.h, src/post.c, src/noffle.c, src/server.c, docs/noffle.1, docs/noffle.conf.5: Moved all article posting code into post.[hc], removed 'remove-messageid' option, added '--post' to noffle command line. Added 'post-locally' option. docs/NOTES still needs updating. Needs more testing too. Wed May 17 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * README: Clean-up and update. * docs/noffle.conf.5, src/configfile.h, src/server.c: Disabled remove-msgid option. Mon May 15 11:21:28 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/configfile.h, src/configfile.c, src/client.c, docs/noffle.conf.5: Added getgroups and omitgroups options. Sun May 14 16:51:24 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * docs/NOTES: Added notes on trn, xrn and knews. * src/configfile.h, src.configfile.c, src/server.c, docs/noffle.conf.5: Increment the article number of the gen info article in groups that are not auto-subscribed each time the gen info article is read. The gen info article thus remains unread at the start of every newsreading session. This behaviour can be disabled by setting new config setting 'info-always-unread' to 'no'. Default is 'yes'. This (I hope) restores Markus's preferred behaviour. * INTERNALS: Added file with some rough jottings on the internals of Noffle. A work in (probably sporadic) progress. Sun May 14 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/fetch.c: Did some refactoring. Sat May 13 15:09:01 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/itemlist.c: Fixed stupid, Stupid, STUPID bug in Itl_next(). Redid itemlist code slightly to remove need to keep separators string, at the cost of making it impossible to use '\1' as a separator. I don't think this will be a problem. * src/log.h, src/log.c, src/over.h, src/over.c: Adjusted consting in Log_init and new_Over to remove compiler warnings. * src/portable.h, src/server.c, src/client.c: Introduced UNUSED(x) macro to indicate deliberately unused function parameters and remove warnings. * src/content.c: Preserve gen info in Cont_write() provided it is followed by an article with the next number. Stops gen info article vanishing instantly on reading when auto-subscribe is on, which was sort-of confusing for users (why can't I read that again?) and caused xrn to complain the NNTP server was broken. Sat May 13 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/client.c: Rewrote needsMark(): uses itemlist.h, more debugging output. * src/server.c: Rewrote getTimesInSeconds(): arguments ar now int and checked with assertions. Return value is time_t and must be checked for (time_t)-1. Sat May 13 06:20:01 CEST 2000 Uwe Hermann <uh1763@bingo-ev.de> * src/Makefile.am, src/Makefile.in: Added portable.h to the list of sources. I forgot this in my last commit. Sorry. Fri May 12 2000 Markus Enzenberger <markus.enzenberger@t-online.de> * src/client.c: add some intermediate variables for easier debugging in needsMark(). It seems that thread mode is sometimes not working. * src/client.c, src/content.c, src/dynamicstring.h, src/dynamicstring.c, src/util.h, src/util.c, src/protocol.c: Changed some variable types and used some casts to avoid compiler warnings about signedness. In general, int should be used for parameters for allowing a signedness assertion in the function. (see J.Lakos: Large-Scale C++ Software Design, section 9.2). * src/client.c, src/database.c, src/database.h, src/fetch.c, src/fetchlist.c, src/fetchlist.h, src/group.c, src/group.h, src/noffle.c, src/server.c src/server.h: Renamed some variables, because they caused compiler warnings because of shadowing global variables from system include files (index, stat, serv). * src/fetchlist.c: Avoid compiler warning because of cast from const to non-const. * src/post.c, src/server.c: Avoid compiler warnings about incomplete initializer blocks. Fri May 12 10:19:56 CEST 2000 Uwe Hermann <uh1763@bingo-ev.de> * configure, configure.in: Only add all those compiler-switches like -ansi, -pedantic etc. if we use gcc. Other c-compilers are unlikely to have those switches. Wed May 10 00:25:44 CEST 2000 Uwe Hermann <uh1763@bingo-ev.de> * src/client.c, src/configfile.c, src/content.c, src/control.c, src/database.c, src/dynamicstring.c, src/fetch.c, src/fetchlist.c, src/group.c, src/itemlist.c, src/lock.c, src/log.c, src/noffle.c, src/online.c, src/outgoing.c, src/over.c, src/post.c, src/protocol.c, src/pseudo.c, src/request.c, src/server.c, src/util.c: Added portable.h #include. * src/client.h, src/database.h, src/fetch.c, src/group.h, src/lock.c, src/outgoing.c, src/over.c, src/over.h, src/pseudo.c, src/server.c, src/util.c, src/util.h: Added some #ifdefs to correctly include either time.h or sys/time.h or both, depending on which are found. * src/noffle.c: Changed the return-type of the signal-handlers bugReport() and logSignal() to RETSIGTYPE, which is either void or int, depending on the system you compile on (autoconf #defines the RETSIGTYPE). * src/portable.h: Added file. This #defines some macros, so the code uses __snprintf() and __vsnprintf if snprintf and vsnprintf aren't available. This is the case on SunOS, for example. Sat May 6 12:25:39 BST 2000 Jim Hague <jim.hague@acm.org> * src/server.c: Changed XOVER with no arg. to return info for current article, not error. * src/server.c, src/content.h, src/content.c: XHDR - added 'xref' to headers recognised to keep trn happy, and recognise message ID argument. * src/server.c, src/content.c: Ensure first/last from LIST ACTIVE and GROUP agree (trn uses former). Tricky with pseudo gen info articles around. Presence of these now only recorded in content and not reflected in group first/last until proper article posted after pseudo. * src/client.c, NEWS: Reinstated starting article numbering from first article number on server. Reasoning below is wrong except in exceptional circumstances (e.g. join group, auto-subscribe, manual unsubscribe, auto subscribe again, etc. to get > 2 Noffle info messages in group. Bring reader up to date, remove & reinstall Noffle. Join group, autosubscribe after more news arrives at server, reader thinks it has read n articles it hasn't, where n is number of Noffle info messages in group first time round - 2). Feature is generally useful, esp. in development, so back in it goes. * src/group.c: Forget cached group info when group database closed. Sat May 6 01:31:04 CEST 2000 Uwe Hermann <uh1763@bingo-ev.de> * Makefile.in, configure, configure.in, docs/Makefile.in, src/Makefile.in: Added checks for the mail and sort programs. ./configure will abort if they're not found. * README: Removed the paragraph about news client software, as it's the same as the one in docs/NOTES. * TODO: Removed 'expiring by groups' and 'move some text from noffle.1 to noffle.conf.5'. * docs/NOTES: Changed the text about -DDEBUG to explain one should use './configure --enable-debug'. * docs/noffle.1, docs/noffle.conf.5: Minor fixes. Added myself and Jim Hague to the AUTHORS section :-) * src/client.h, src/common.h, src/configfile.h, src/content.c, src/content.h, src/control.c, src/control.h, src/database.h, src/dynamicstring.c, src/dynamicstring.h, src/fetch.h, src/fetchlist.h, src/group.h, src/itemlist.c, src/itemlist.h, src/lock.h, src/log.c, src/log.h, src/noffle.c, src/online.h, src/outgoing.h, src/over.c, src/over.h, src/post.h, src/protocol.h, src/pseudo.h, src/request.h, src/server.h, src/util.c, src/util.h: Added the <config.h> include. * src/content.c: Added missing include "content.h". Added a missing 'void' in the declaration of clearCont(). * src/fetchlist.c: Casted fetchlist.size to (size_t) in a call to qsort(), as qsort() expects a size_t. This removes a warning. * src/noffle.c: Made doRequested() static. Added missing void to enableCorefiles(). * src/log.c, src/protocol.c, src/online.c, src/pseudo.c: Added missing includes. * src/pseudo.c: Made genOv() and genPseudo() static. * src/server.c: Added missing void to postArts(). Made touchArticle() static. * src/util.c: Casted arguments of malloc() and memcpy() to size_t. * src/dynamicstring.c, src/itemlist.c, src/over.c, src/request.c, src/util.c: Removed casting of the result of malloc(). This is not necessary and can hide a missing include of <stdlib.h>.

They are used by aclocal, autoheader, autoconf and automake. * src/config.c, src/config.h: Renamed to configfile.c and configfile.h, because configure will generate a config.h file itself. * src/client.c, src/content.c, src/database.c, src/fetch.c, src/fetchlist.c, src/group.c, src/lock.c, src/noffle.c, src/online.c, src/outgoing.c, src/over.c, src/pseudo.c, src/request.c, src/server.c, src/util.c: Changed '#include "config.h"' to '#include "configfile.h"'. * src/client.c, src/content.c, src/database.c, src/fetch.c, src/fetchlist.c, src/group.c, src/lock.c, src/online.c, src/outgoing.c, src/post.c, src/protocol.c, src/request.c, src/server.c: Files now #include <config.h>. Added missing <stdio.h>. This removes the warnings about snprintf() not being declared. * Makefile: Removed. This is now generated by configure. Fri May 5 22:24:37 CEST 2000 Uwe Hermann <uh1763@bingo-ev.de> * AUTHORS.html, CHANGELOG.html, COPYING.html, README.html, FAQ.html, NOTES.html, INSTALL.html: Removed files. * AUTHORS, COPYING, ChangeLog, README, INSTALL, NEWS, docs/FAQ, docs/NOTES: Added files. * TODO.TXT: Renamed to TODO. Slightly changed formatting. * README: Reformatted the file. Added info about CVS. Added a pointer to the file INSTALL. * noffle.1, noffle.conf.5: Moved to docs/ * LSM.TXT: Moved to docs/noffle.lsm. Small fix. * INSTALL: Adapted to autoconf build-system. A few minor fixes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.0pre6pre * Forget cached group info when group database closed. * Added list of 'forbidden' newsgroup specs., as defined in draft IETF Newsgroup Format (C.Lindsey), tracked to replace RFC1036. This defines newsgroup names that should only be used for server-local groups and server pseudo-groups (e.g. INN's to.*, cancel, cancel.*, junk). These are now intercepted when querying server groups and ignored. Group names omitted are any single component names, any 'control.*', 'to' or 'to.*',and any with a component 'all' or 'ctl'. Note these restrictions do not apply to local group names. * Fixed problem with article numbering if the overview file empties, e.g. due to all articles in a very low volume group expiring. This would cause article numbers to be set back to 1 when a new article arrives. * Changed %i to %d in sscanfs everywhere. INN often (as it is entitled to do) has leading zeros on numbers. %i interprets these as octal numbers. Also changed %i to %d in printfs, for no good reason. * New groups now always start numbering at article 1. Previously article numbering would start with the first held remote article number, in an attempt to avoid newsreaders noticing if noffle is deleted and reinstalled. Given Noffle may well not collect the first held article anyway - it only will if the default number of articles to retrieve on a first connect is big enough - and the fact that Noffle's pseudo articles make it impossible to keep local article numbers in lock-step with the server, there is the chance this scheme would just cause readers to miss new articles. * Record newsgroup posting status. Enforce it at posting time. Added --modify to change newsgroup descriptions for all groups and posting status for local groups. * Added group deletion. * Added message cancellation - from command line or by control message. Note command line only cancels locally - it can't be used to cancel a message that has already gone offsite. A control messages cancels locally if possible; it is only propaged offsite if the target is in a non-local group and has itself already gone offsite. * Added wildmat code taken from INN - ensure Noffle wildcarding is exactly to spec. * Added group-specific expire times. * Noffle now sends a "MODE READER" command after connecting to the remote server. INN needs this before it will permit POST. * Applied patch from Jim Hague: support for local groups / new command line options --create and --cancel. * Changed output of 'noffle -a all' to standard mailbox format, so that tools like grepmail work. Version 1.0pre5 * Core files are always enabled when running as server and debugging symbols are always in the executable. * Use GDBM_FAST flag for hash files. * Fixed a bug in online mode with servers that need authentication. * Minor changes and improvements Version 1.0pre4 * Fixed a bug that broke cross-posting of articles * Fixed a bug that truncated headers of posted articles. * Long overview header lines are now split into multiple lines in response to HEAD or ARTICLE commands. * Fixed a bug that caused a crash sometimes when updating the requested article list after releasing/regetting the global lock * Server is now allowed to generate core files on crash (in spool directory) if compiled with -DDEBUG option * Opening an article additionally marks all references as interesting, so more articles are fetched in thread mode, if one article of a thread was opened. * New config option "connect-timeout" * Minor improvements and bug-fixes Version 1.0pre3 * Added XPAT command. Not full syntax, but enough for making slrn's thread reconstruction work * Storing of requested message-ids completely rewritten (thanks to Volker Wysk for the patch). Much more efficient now. Bug removed that broke requesting articles with message-IDs containing a slash. Added --requested option. * When fetching requested articles, do not send more than 20 ARTICLE commands at once, before parsing the server response. * Minor bug fixes and improvements. Version 1.0pre2 * Added RPM_BUILD_ROOT variable to Makefile (useful for creating RPM source packages) * Removed terrible bug that truncated article body after releasing and re-getting global lock Version 1.0pre1 * needs complete re-installing, some formats have changed * Support for multiple remote servers * Faster download when fetching news, because articles are prepared in database while parsing response to XOVER and all ARTICLE commands are sent at once * Bug removed that made authetication only work with lower-case passwords * Other small bug fixes and improvements Version 0.19 * Fix broken full mode * Fix cutting of articles after line beginning with '.' * Other bug fixes * LIST commands can have pattern argument now * initial-fetch option removed (same as max-fetch now) Version 0.18 * needs complete re-installing, most file format have changed * Group database uses gdbm, databases moved to /var/spool/noffle/data * Most config options changed their names, some do not longer exists * New fetch mode "thread" added * Different --fetch invocations replaced by single option * Meaning of "--database" option changed, "--article" option added * Failed postings are now returned to sender by "mail" command * Expire uses last access time * Auto-subscribe option only subscribes groups now, if an article body is opened (no longer if group is selected). * Improve posting at German T-Online provider: rename X-Sender header, Reply-To header is added, if missing (T-Online overwrites From headers), allow to remove Message-ID as a config option. * Doc files are now copied to $(PREFIX)/doc/noffle * Y2K compliance of NEWGROUPS command * Various bug fixes (thanks to all users helping with bug reports) * Various changes for tuning and improvement Version 0.17 * Bug removed that caused NOFFLE to exceed the allowed maximum number of open files on longer sessions. Version 0.16 * Noffle generates Message-ID if a message received for posting has none.
