# Line 1  Line 1 
1  ** Changes from Boa/0.94.13 to Hydra/0.0.2  ** Changes from 0.0.8 to 0.0.9
2     * Long offsets are not used by default.
3     * Use of pipes instead of temporary files, if the post data sent
4       are less than PIPE_BUF.
5     * More consistent logging. The server's hostname or "unknown"
6       are prepended to the log message.
7     * Corrected redirection/aliases behaviour, to match the documented one.
8     * SSLParamsRefresh was renamed to MaintenanceInterval and is more
9       generic, since it includes some server cleanups.
10     * Added file access control lists per virtual host. Based on patch for
11       Boa by Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
12    
13    ** Changes from 0.0.7 to 0.0.8 - 25/10/2002
14     * Better pthread detection.
15     * Better detection of dlopen call.
16     * Some changes to compile in gcc 2.95
17     * Added support for FreeBSD's sendfile (untested).
18    [Ported from Boa 0.94.14rc1]
19     * add new state, IOSHUFFLE, which utilizes sendfile (or
20       emulates it using the request's buffer, otherwise)
21     * make the default socket size 32K.  The client_stream_size stays constant
22       at 8K, and the new 'buffer' size is 4K
23       Note also that the new code uses the "default" socket buffer size
24       it obtains with the first accept()ed socket.
25     * make default behavior be to leave stderr alone, but tie it
26       to cgilog otherwise
27     * add [optional, Linux-only] check for sendfile system call
28     * use --disable-sendfile to disable sendfile support
29       sendfile support for files > 100K is default, now.
30       It's significantly faster and easier than the alternative
31     * umask ~0770 before exec
32     * tie stdout to the access_log, unless there is no access_log,
33       in which case tie it to /dev/null
34     * use sensible defaults for umask (077) and (027 for CGI)
35     * add and document new parameters (CGILog and CGIumask)
36     * vast improvements to the cgi-test.cgi program, by Jon Nelson
37       and Landon Curt Noll.
38     * next 3 items by Don Mahurin (patches modified somewhat):
39     * pidfile patch
40     * default mime_types patch
41     * NCSA environment environment variables wrapped in
42       #ifdef USE_NCSA_CGI_ENV
43     * fix some escaping issues with the directory indexer
44       (Ulf Harnhammar)
45     * backport poll support from 0.95
46    
47    ** Changes from 0.0.6 to 0.0.7 - 10/10/2002
48     * Added support for large files in 32 bit systems.
49     * Added support for SSL_* variables in CGIs.
50     * Added options in configuration file, to request and verify
51       a client certificate.
52     * The headers of HIC-CGIs are now parsed by the server.
53     * Corrected behavour in SIGHUP signal handling, to reread
54       the SSL related variables.
55     * Children and HIC threads are now killed using a signal, to avoid
56       unexpected errors, and memory leaks.
57    
58    ** Changes from 0.0.5 to 0.0.6 - 03/10/2002
59     * Compatibility functions are now automatically included in hydra, if
60       they are not found by the configure script.
61     * Replaced the included scandir function, with the one in libc.
62     * Fixed code, which compiled fine with gcc 3.2, but didn't compile at
63       all, with any other compiler!
64     * Improved the MaxConnections directive semantics.
65     * Added a very primitive mime.types file in examples/ directory.
66    
67    ** Changes from 0.0.4 to 0.0.5 - 02/10/2002
68     * If a requested CGI is not accesible then send 404 not found, instead
69       of trying to execute it.
70     * Corrected several stuff in HIC CGI handler. This allows Cookies,
71       POST data and Queries to work properly.
72    
73    ** Changes from 0.0.3 to 0.0.4 - 30/09/2002
74     * Added support for If-Range, If-Match, If-None-Match HTTP/1.1 header
75       fields. The server also generates ETag headers for static content using
76       the last modified field of the file, and the file size. This makes
77       Hydra cache friendly.
78     * Added support for multiple HIC threads. This gives a boost to script generation
79       since they are no longer generated sequentially.
80    
81    ** Changes from 0.0.2 to 0.0.3 - 28/09/2002
82     * Added support for dynamic modules that handle CGIs
83       internally (HIC). That way Hydra can run PHP.
84     * Fixes in CGI execution. CGIs that are not passed from aliasing
85       functions now properly set PATH_INFO and PATH_TRANSLATED.
86       (Needs further cleanup).
87     * Cleaned up SSL support. Now hydra can be compiled even if gnutls
88       is not available.
89    
90    ** Changes from Boa/0.94.13 to Hydra/0.0.2 - 26/09/2002
91   * Added support for SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 protocols.   * Added support for SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 protocols.
92   * Added support for multiple CPU's by making the server   * Added support for multiple CPU's by making the server
93     run over a pool of threads.     run over a pool of threads.
