1History of updates to Authen::SASL::Cyrus
2
30.13
4Updated the WRITE() method to use syswrite() and account for
5variable buffer sizes in SASL.
6
70.12
8Made Cyrus.xs more compatible with Perl API by changing function calls
9like Perl_warn() to just warn(), and defining PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT.
10Made SASL properties which take an IP address and load it into the SASL
11library more robust by determining if the passed address is in
12"struct sockaddr" format or in "IP1.IP2.IP3.IP4;PORT" format.
13Fixed passing of "function + params" as a callback.
14
150.11
16Fixed t/callback.t to NOT try connecting to the LDAP server
17on localhost since that, well, doesn't work at Pause.
18
190.10
20Added better callback management, Perl memory management,
21and three test scripts, as written by Ulrich Pfeifer.
22
230.09
24Changed securesocket GLOB, as suggested by Marius Tomaschewski.
25Extended SASL2 support.
26
270.08
28Changed the "code" routine to return the result code of the
29last SASL library call. This allows differentiation of the
30result of the client_step returning a zero byte string vs.
31it saying authentication is complete.
32
330.07
34Memcpy fix provided by Maurice Massar
35
360.06
37Added SASL V2 support patch provided by Leif Johansson.
38
390.05
40Added the SASL_CB_PASS callback. This callback, unfortunately, does
41not put the caller's "context" as the first parameter to the callback
42function. This means that the PerlCallback() function has to be able
43to determine if the _perlcontext is the first parameter or the second.
44Added a magic number as the first field of the _perlcontext struct
45to help PerlCallback() decide which parameter is the perl context.
46
470.04
48Added a method "securesocket" that takes a file handle and returns a
49new file handle that is tied to the Security subclass added in 0.03.
50In this way, a client program can take the object returned from
51client_new() and call the securesocket() method on it, passing in the
52client's file handle, without ever having to know about the Security
53subclass.  Also added a "tiehandle" method which will take the same
54file handle as "securesocket", and tie it directly to the Security
55subclass. The difference being "securesocket" returns a new file handle,
56and "tiehandle" ties the handle passed in.
57
580.03
59Added encryption layer. Cyrus.xs now has encode() and decode()
60methods. Added a "Security" subclass that can be used to tie a
61filehandle to perform encryption on write() and decryption on read().
62The new() method ties a passed in glob to the class.
63
640.02
65Encryption layer not ready yet, so changed the "secflag" param in the
66call to sasl_client_new() from 1 to 0.  Otherwise, the server will
67start expecting encrypted requests and sending encrypted responses
68after the authentication, and the client cannot encrypt/decrypt.

700.01
