# Line 1  Line 1 
1    ** Changes from 0.0.9 to 0.0.10 - 08/11/2002
2     * Corrected bug in error logging.
3     * Use the TMPDIR environment variable instead of TMP to get
4       the temporary directory.
5    
6    ** Changes from 0.0.8 to 0.0.9 - 27/10/2002
7     * Long offsets are not used by default.
8     * Use of pipes instead of temporary files, if the post data sent
9       are less than PIPE_BUF.
10     * More consistent logging. The server's hostname or "unknown"
11       are prepended to the log message.
12     * Corrected redirection/aliases behaviour, to match the documented one.
13     * SSLParamsRefresh was renamed to MaintenanceInterval and is more
14       generic, since it includes some server cleanups.
15     * Added file access control lists per virtual host. Based on patch for
16       Boa by Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
17     * Added the ability to disable HIC threads by using 0 in the
18       HICThreads configuration directive.
19     * Hydra now uses poll by default. Select is available using the --with-select
20       configure option.
21    
22    ** Changes from 0.0.7 to 0.0.8 - 25/10/2002
23     * Better pthread detection.
24     * Better detection of dlopen call.
25     * Some changes to compile in gcc 2.95
26     * Added support for FreeBSD's sendfile (untested).
27    [Ported from Boa 0.94.14rc1]
28     * add new state, IOSHUFFLE, which utilizes sendfile (or
29       emulates it using the request's buffer, otherwise)
30     * make the default socket size 32K.  The client_stream_size stays constant
31       at 8K, and the new 'buffer' size is 4K
32       Note also that the new code uses the "default" socket buffer size
33       it obtains with the first accept()ed socket.
34     * make default behavior be to leave stderr alone, but tie it
35       to cgilog otherwise
36     * add [optional, Linux-only] check for sendfile system call
37     * use --disable-sendfile to disable sendfile support
38       sendfile support for files > 100K is default, now.
39       It's significantly faster and easier than the alternative
40     * umask ~0770 before exec
41     * tie stdout to the access_log, unless there is no access_log,
42       in which case tie it to /dev/null
43     * use sensible defaults for umask (077) and (027 for CGI)
44     * add and document new parameters (CGILog and CGIumask)
45     * vast improvements to the cgi-test.cgi program, by Jon Nelson
46       and Landon Curt Noll.
47     * next 3 items by Don Mahurin (patches modified somewhat):
48     * pidfile patch
49     * default mime_types patch
50     * NCSA environment environment variables wrapped in
51       #ifdef USE_NCSA_CGI_ENV
52     * fix some escaping issues with the directory indexer
53       (Ulf Harnhammar)
54     * backport poll support from 0.95
55    
56    ** Changes from 0.0.6 to 0.0.7 - 10/10/2002
57     * Added support for large files in 32 bit systems.
58     * Added support for SSL_* variables in CGIs.
59     * Added options in configuration file, to request and verify
60       a client certificate.
61     * The headers of HIC-CGIs are now parsed by the server.
62     * Corrected behavour in SIGHUP signal handling, to reread
63       the SSL related variables.
64     * Children and HIC threads are now killed using a signal, to avoid
65       unexpected errors, and memory leaks.
66    
67    ** Changes from 0.0.5 to 0.0.6 - 03/10/2002
68     * Compatibility functions are now automatically included in hydra, if
69       they are not found by the configure script.
70     * Replaced the included scandir function, with the one in libc.
71     * Fixed code, which compiled fine with gcc 3.2, but didn't compile at
72       all, with any other compiler!
73     * Improved the MaxConnections directive semantics.
74     * Added a very primitive mime.types file in examples/ directory.
75    
76    ** Changes from 0.0.4 to 0.0.5 - 02/10/2002
77     * If a requested CGI is not accesible then send 404 not found, instead
78       of trying to execute it.
79     * Corrected several stuff in HIC CGI handler. This allows Cookies,
80       POST data and Queries to work properly.
81    
82    ** Changes from 0.0.3 to 0.0.4 - 30/09/2002
83     * Added support for If-Range, If-Match, If-None-Match HTTP/1.1 header
84       fields. The server also generates ETag headers for static content using
85       the last modified field of the file, and the file size. This makes
86       Hydra cache friendly.
87     * Added support for multiple HIC threads. This gives a boost to script generation
88       since they are no longer generated sequentially.
89    
90    ** Changes from 0.0.2 to 0.0.3 - 28/09/2002
91     * Added support for dynamic modules that handle CGIs
92       internally (HIC). That way Hydra can run PHP.
93     * Fixes in CGI execution. CGIs that are not passed from aliasing
94       functions now properly set PATH_INFO and PATH_TRANSLATED.
95       (Needs further cleanup).
96     * Cleaned up SSL support. Now hydra can be compiled even if gnutls
97       is not available.
98    
99  ** Changes from Boa/0.94.13 to Hydra/0.0.2 - 26/09/2002  ** Changes from Boa/0.94.13 to Hydra/0.0.2 - 26/09/2002
100   * Added support for SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 protocols.   * Added support for SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 protocols.
