2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 - fixed locale issues in src/data.cc
6 - applied wording correction patch to btool from Matt LaPlante
8 - changed hard coded databases names in btool to calls to
9 <recordclass>::GetDBName()
14 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
18 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
21 Release: version 0.11 - 2007/12/01
22 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
24 - fixed null pointer bug in Probe class (bug #1842407)
25 - added pause to maintainer release script
31 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
35 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
37 Release: version 0.10 - 2007/11/30
38 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
40 - added support to the usbwrap Match class to limit its
41 search by busname / devname
42 - added support to the Probe class to limit its search for
43 Blackberry devices to a given bus or device name
44 - added command line options to btool for the above Probe
45 bus/device names, and updated the man page
46 - updated the www docs with regard to the new usb_storage
47 behaviour and the new blacklist files... less
48 concern about berry_charge and usb_storage conflicts
49 - added bidentify tool and accompanying man page
50 - fixed bug in rpm maintenance script that used the wrong
51 spec file for opensuse
53 - added better error checking to breset
54 - commented the sleep() for the 8830
55 - added code to handle the race condition where usb_storage
56 claims the device before bcharge arrives on the scene,
57 by asking the kernel to detach the driver from
58 the Mass Storage interface... this change makes it
59 possible to run bcharge, moving from 0006 to 0004
60 to 0001 and back to 0004, all *while* usb_storage
62 - changed Probe class behaviour so that it will not throw an
63 exception on Device Busy (-EBUSY) but instead
64 log the error in an internal array and keep going.
65 This makes it possible to use btool and barrybackup
66 with two devices plugged in at the same time.
67 BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY NOTE: this changes initializaion
68 behaviour, but in practice, it should only
69 make applications look more capable, not less.
70 - updated btool to show errors logged by Probe
71 - added message to specify which PIN device is being used by btool
72 - added explanatory comments to udev rules files, about why
75 - added ClearHalt() calls to probe and controller classes, just
76 before any communication happens... the 8830 seems
79 - added usbwrap.cc:GetConfiguration()
80 - added code to check whether the configuration is the one
81 we require, before calling SetConfiguration()... and not
82 to call it if unnecessary. This allows us to run
83 at the same time as usb_storage.
84 Thanks to Martin Owens for not letting this issue go. :-)
85 - added sleep to bcharge, before calling usb_reset()... the
86 Blackberry 8830 behaves like a Pearl device in that
87 it has mass storage support, but behaves like a Classic
88 in that it resets itself... the usb_reset() seems
89 to reset it back to 0006. The sleep allows the device
90 to disappear via its own reset, and let usb_reset()
91 fail naturally on these devices.
92 This is not an ideal solution... mainly for testing.
94 - added modprobe/blacklist-berry_charge as per Simon Ruggier's
95 suggestion. Thanks also to Niels de Vos for a similar
97 - fixed udev rules to work on both old and new distros
98 Thanks to Duncan Mak for the bug report.
100 - fixed string comparison to use case insensitive compare in
102 - updated Debian package to include modprobe blacklist file
103 - updated rpm spec file to include modprobe blacklist file
104 - split the maintenance scripts into release and test, so
105 that release package builds can be done faster
107 - opensync plugin fixes:
108 - fixed memory leak in vBase::GetAttr()
109 - added support in vformat parser to parse "blocks"
110 and keep track of the hierarchy when
111 parsing an iCalendar, etc.
112 - added support for searching for attributes only
113 inside certain blocks (i.e. find first
114 DTSTART in VEVENT block, not VTIMEZONE block)
116 - fixed bug in Calendar::Clear, missing the Free / Class
117 member variables, leaving them uninitialized
118 - added examples/addcalendar.cc
119 - added more logging to the opensync plugin, logging the
120 ToBarry conversion results
121 - added code to force struct tm.tm_isdst to -1 before calling
123 - fixed typo in previous fix
125 - renamed ktrans and translate to bktrans and btranslate to avoid
126 file name clashes with libtranslate of Gnome
127 Closes bug #1812410 reported by Troy Engel.
132 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
136 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
137 - fixed missing default config file in the debian package for
139 Closes bug #1812224 reported by Ariel (adonatti).
140 - added debian dbg packages for tracing segfaults
141 - modified maintainer scripts so debug packages would reference
142 source code located in /usr/src/barry-0.9, etc.
144 Release: version 0.9 - 2007/10/12
145 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
147 - adjusted autosuspend disabling code in bcharge, based on new
148 information on how kernels 2.6.21 / 2.6.22 work.
149 See bcharge.cc for comments. If device/power/level or
150 device/power/autosuspend exist, charging should now work
151 without recompiling the kernel.
152 - updated website docs with autosuspend info
154 - large update to the doc/www web pages, moving some of the
155 information in README files to html format, so that it
156 is commonly available on the web
157 - added step in maintenance scripts to automatically build the
158 .html files in doc/www when making a tarball release
160 - added libopensync 0.22 version requirement to barry.spec file,
161 but it doesn't seem to work on OpenSuSE 10.2, where it's
164 - updated README to mention new tree build configure options
165 - fixed the configure scripts and makefiles so that when building
166 with custom CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables,
167 it doesn't break the full-tree build mode, when
168 using --enable-gui and/or --enable-opensync-plugin
169 - added config.h.in~ to buildgen.sh clean target
170 - converted Debian build scripts to use cdbs
171 - added opensync plugin binary package for Debian
172 - added "Getting Started" section to web pages, as well as an
173 explanatory document for various system requirements
174 - turned on opensync build in RPM maintainer scripts
176 - added filename to power/state error message in bcharge.cc
177 - adjusted maintainer scripts to automatically adjust barry.spec
178 for opensuse rpm builds
180 - fixed some of the release build scripts and added support for
181 automated opensuse 10.2 builds
182 - fixed build target to i386
183 - changed scripts to add to PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable instead
186 - added website docs to doc/www... these are out of date at the
187 moment, and hopefully by including them here, they
188 will be updated more frequently
190 - applied Simon Ruggier's build system patch that allowed a build
191 of all 3 components from the root directory and fixed the
192 configure scripts to support external build directories
193 - reordered clean commands in the buildgen.sh scripts, and removed
194 the INSTALL files, since they are auto-generated by autoconf
195 - removed extraneous buildgen.sh calls in maintainer scripts
196 - added Simon Ruggier to AUTHORS
197 - added explanatory note to 3 stage test build process in
200 - fixed Category handling in the Contact record class, to
201 parse the comma separated string into an array,
203 Note: this involves a change to the boost serialization
204 and will affect backward compatibility with
205 old serialization datafiles
206 - added Category to examples/addcontact.cc
207 - added Category support to the opensync plugin
209 - fixed wrong read/write in btool output (oops)
210 - added BadSize exception, and changed CheckSize() function
212 - changed backup GUI to catch BadSize exceptions on initial
213 connect, and try a reset if that error occurs, since
214 that likely means the device didn't shutdown properly
215 - fixed in opensync plugin:
216 - some vcard data contains types codes in capital letters,
217 so added lower case conversion routine
218 - changed the order of address lines, so that address1
219 is the street, address2 is the extended address,
220 and address3 is the PO Box. The Blackberry
221 doesn't seem to have any PO Box field.
223 - added -e endpoint override option to btool
224 - added status message to endpoint override
226 - added configure check for strnlen, and implementation for
227 systems that don't have it, or that have it implemented
228 incorrectly. Went a little paranoid here, since
229 AC_FUNC_STRNLEN doesn't set a define in config.h,
230 so I had to do it manually, and check in case autoconf
231 changes in the future... ugh. See src/strnlen.h for
233 - added code in probe.cc to fetch the device's description.
234 The description is now part of the probe results
235 along with the PIN. Updates to protocol.h, adding
236 a new attribute definition.
237 Thanks to Rick Scott for pointing out the code in
238 XmBlackberry where he implemented this first.
239 - fixed header dependency in record-internal.h
240 - updated the "required autoconf" version to 2.61 for root build
241 - moved nested structs out of the record classes that contain them,
242 in order to better support SWIG and Python
244 - changed bcharge to use getopt() for its argument processing
245 - added options -p and -s to bcharge, to adjust usb suspend
246 settings automatically where possible
247 - updated the udev rules to use the new bcharge settings
248 - updated the bcharge man page with the new arguments
250 - cleaned up Usb exception handling, moving libusb error code
251 processing into the Usb::Error exception class.
252 error.cc is now an empty shell
253 - added return codes to the Usb::Error exceptions
254 - removed aboutdialog.{h,cc} from the backup GUI since even
255 Debian stable now has up-to-date gtkmm libraries
256 - added more user friendly error message for the "device busy"
257 case, recommending 'rmmod usb_storage'.
259 - added better error checking to bcharge.cc
264 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
268 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
269 - removed usb_set_configuration() check from bcharge.cc, since
270 that may fail under normal operation, in this case
272 Release: version 0.8 - 2007/08/03
273 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
275 - moved Interface implementation to usbwrap.cc file
276 - added dout debugging messages to usbwrap.cc
277 - clarified unhandled packet error message in socket.cc
278 - added temporary workaround in opensync-plugin environment's
279 Reconnect(), for odd message seen on newer Blackberry
281 - fixing issues with Brian Edginton's MessageRecord patch (2007/06/29)
282 - fixed missing size check in message oriented ParseHeader()
283 - fixed endian conversion issues (also found one pre-existing
284 endian bug in the process)
285 - moved message timestamp converter code to time.cc
286 - added Barry version number to opensync plugin name
287 - changed maintainer scripts and rpm.spec to use bzip2 instead of gzip
288 - added opensync-plugin to configure script build
289 - added -S option to btool, to list supported parsers and builders
290 - slight change to opensync-plugin/buildgen.sh to cleanup config.h.in~
291 - opensync-plugin/README update
292 - added opensync-plugin/patches for others who may be building and
293 testing the plugin with OpenSync 0.22
294 - added debian package build scripts to maintainer/
296 - added entry to doc/TroubleShooting.txt
298 - added doc/TroubleShooting.txt
301 - fixed bug in vcard.cc that was using the FN field
302 for the broken-down name instead of N
303 - added dbId and dbName to DatabaseSyncState
304 - added Reconnect() functionality to BarryEnvironment class
305 and moved connect logic out of barry_sync.cc
306 - changed the batch commit functionality in barry_sync.cc
307 to single-change-commit. Why? Because opensync
308 0.22 groups all batch changes into one group
309 and calls one batch commit function, even if you
310 registered two. Moving to single change commit
311 mode removes a chunk of unneccessary code
312 from the plugin as well, and can in theory
313 ease memory pressure in the library.
314 - added FinishSync() to perform actions needed on successful
316 - disconnect on successful sync completion, and reconnect,
317 since the device's dirty flags don't seem to
318 be updated until a disconnect occurs.
320 - added ReadDataArray() to data.h, using an istream instead of
322 - added raw data version of BuildField() to record-internal.h
323 This is so that btool doesn't add extra null terminators
324 to unknown data, when restoring with option -s
325 - fixed bugs in r_contact.cc:
326 - fixed bug that caused a LastName/FirstName swap
327 if FirstName was empty and you wrote a contact
328 record into the device.... First/Last Name
329 fields are position sensitive, and the code
330 was missing the empty FirstName case on writing
331 - fixed bug in BuildFields() and Dump() where they
332 were not updated to handle the new field
333 table added for the postal address changes
336 - changed the plugin config file, so it is possible to
337 turn debug output on/off without recompiling
338 - moved the standalone Map2Uid() function into
339 the DatabaseSyncState class, and changed the
340 code to produce "contact-#" and "calendar-#"
341 UID strings, instead of just numbers
342 - changed default PIN to -1, so that if the user doesn't
343 configure properly, it will fail... this is a
344 safety measure to avoid syncing with different
345 devices and corrupting the cache/idmap...
346 this should be fixed someday, to handle this
348 On second thought... is this right? Perhaps
349 it is better to fail if the PIN is not what
350 is expected, so a user doesn't accidentally
351 sync the wrong device and lose data.
352 Actions to take on new PIN:
353 - force slow_sync, or
355 - incorporated the new VCardConverter code into the
356 main barry_sync.cc plugin code
357 - fixed bug that did not clear the devices dirty flags
358 in the case where a sync only read data from it,
360 - changed PIN error message number to hex
362 - minor wording change in backup GUI prompt: "Backup working..." to
363 "Backup in progress..."
364 - renamed Contact class's Title field to JobTitle for clarity
365 - added record function ParseFieldString(), which properly handles
366 strings from the device that have multiple null terminators,
367 and changed the record parsing code to use this new function
368 - moved FullName() function from ldif.cc to r_contact.cc since it
369 is generally useful in areas outside of LDIF processing
370 - refactored postal addresses in the Contact record class into
371 a new class called PostalAddress
372 - renamed Address class in record.h to EmailAddress
373 - moved Contact::GetPostalAddress() to record.cc as part of the
374 new PostalAddress class and renamed it
375 PostalAddress::GetLabel()
377 - refactored vformat helpers into separate base class
379 - added vCard converter class
380 - commented out the code that skipped over the adding
381 of empty attribute values and parameters,
382 since VCARD depends on some of this behaviour
383 - movified vformat.c:vformat_find_attribute() to take
384 an extra nth argument, in order to search
385 for multiple attributes with the same name...
386 the way this is coded is a bit inefficient...
387 but we're moving away from vformat when we move
388 to OpenSync 0.3x / 0.40, so this is just temporary
391 - added SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device" to example udev rules, in order
392 to avoid running bcharge for each endpoint that is
393 added by udev, when first plugged in. Running bcharge
394 back-to-back multiple times can crash some
398 - fixed ID mapping bug in the case of a non-numeric UID
399 from syncing external -> Barry, and then the
400 new Barry ID would look like a new change
401 when syncing back from Barry -> external.
402 - added support for slow sync
403 - added clear() to idmap class
404 - added vformat attr parameter extraction class
405 - added more trace logging during vformat/Barry conversions
406 - added Notification time support
407 - handled "all day" vformat special case, when DTEND
408 does not exist in a vformat data block
409 - changed the min1900_t time conversion functions to handle
410 the 0xffffffff special case, when notifications
411 are turned off on a calendar event (src/time.cc)
412 - also made the calendar data dump output clearer for
413 disabled timestamps, and added debug output
414 for the raw min1900 value, in case there are more
415 special cases in the future
417 - fixed null pointer access in opensync's HasMultipleVEvents()
419 - upper management directive: revert all OpenSync 0.3x changes
420 and proceed with OpenSync 0.22. Reverting the
421 opensync-plugin/src tree to Barry 0.7 status.
423 - reorganized exception and trace code in opensync plugin
424 - added XmlToCalendar() function, based on unfinished opensync
425 library API that is not yet finished... will be
426 committed to opensync svn tree when complete
427 - added OSyncXMLField logger to plugin trace class
429 - applied email MessageRecord patch from Brian Edginton (thanks!)
430 - updated Message::Dump() to output more valid mbox data...
431 the goal is to be able to do:
432 btool -d "Messages" > email.mbox
434 - changed some TODO's to FIXME's to keep it grep-consistent
435 - applied Folder support patch from Brian Edginton
436 - fixed pedantic compile warnings, and changed order in src/Makefile.am
437 - removed unneeded cast in src/r_folder.cc
439 - minor adjustment to ctags building in buildgen.sh
440 - applied patch from Brian Edginton for better boost detection
442 - added boost usage message to btool -h output
444 - more porting of OpenSync module to 0.30
445 - added ctags build for opensync source tree to buildgen.sh
447 - changed PKG_CONFIG_PATH setting in rpm script, so that systems
448 like SuSE that have an extensive PKG_CONFIG_PATH
449 in general use will not break on build
450 - added PKG_CONFIG_PATH to debian script too, just in case :-)
451 - added debian/changelog to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
452 - added comment to rpm/barry.spec regarding SuSE RPM builds
454 - applied patch from Niels de Vos fixing debian package build
456 - applied Brian Edginton's Saved Email Messages patch
457 - updated r_saved_messages.cc comment to match header
458 - added GetRecType()/GetUniqueId() to r_saved_messages.h, since
459 SetIds() is already there
460 - removed Address version of operator<<() from message related headers
461 and moved into record.h
462 - added std::hex to message related dumps, and changed output to
464 - updated doc/CodingStyle.txt to cover switch() statements
465 - opensync compiles again, with 0.30! (not functional yet)
466 - moving closer to more modular and reusable plugin functions
467 - updated release checklist for opensync version number
469 - added doc/CodingStyle.txt... preliminary version
471 - applied Brian Edginton's PIN message patch
472 - changes to PIN message patch:
473 - fixed missing backslash in src/Makefile.am
474 - fixed tab alignment throughout
475 - removed typedef from Address struct
476 - added clear() to Address... might as well, if it it is
477 going to be a standalone type
478 - fixed missing comma in PINMessageFieldLinks table
479 - changed MessageRecordId in PINMessage to load from a new
480 uint32_t field in CommonField, instead of piggy
481 backing on a field for other use
482 - did some testing and found that PINMessage's MessageRecordId
483 is the same as the RecordId given through the SetIds()
484 API... but these Id's are duplicated in the protocol...
485 RecordId is stored in the protocol header, while
486 MessageRecordId is stored in the record it self as
487 a common field... added RecType and RecordId to
488 PIN Message so that we store both of these
491 - added item to gui/TODO
492 - applied Brian Edginton's s11n-boost.h patch
494 - renamed template values to more consistent naming scheme
495 - applied memos and tasks patch from Brian Edginton, slightly
496 modified to split into the new separate files system
497 - changes to memos and tasks classes:
498 - reformatted the code to match coding style
500 - added copyright notice
501 - changed class to singular (Memo, not Memos)
502 - placed in Barry namespace
503 - added #ifdef header protectors
504 - added new files to Makefile.am
505 - added new r_*.h headers to record.h
506 - added support for Memos and Tasks to tools/btool.cc, based on
507 Brian Edginton's patch
508 (currently commented out, for Boost library reasons):
509 - added doc/CommitPolicy.txt
512 - added ctags generation to buildgen.sh
513 - applied record.{h,cc} fix patch from Brian Edginton
517 - fixed broken formatting in above patch
518 - refactored record parser classes into separate files for each
519 - changed the ConvertHtoB<> template to inline, as it caused
520 linker errors with the new file layout
522 - fixed bug in Debian packaging that put util commands in
523 /bin and /sbin instead of /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
524 - commited byteswap.h replacement code from gm2net
526 - removed unneeded debug messages on stdout
527 - changed the default for debug output to "off"
528 and added a command line option to turn
529 it on if necessary (--debug-output)
530 - command line option --help now also works
531 - fixed bug in Calendar class where it didn't initialize
532 RecType properly... and cleaned up other RecType
533 code to use the GetDefaultRecType() functions,
534 localizing the constants in one place
536 - applied patches from Brian Edginton, parsing more
537 fields in Contact and Calendar records
538 - added Brian Edginton to AUTHORS
539 - reformatted record.{h,cc} to match the rest of the code,
540 removed commented out code, and removed mention of
541 Outlook from the comments.
542 - updated udev/10-blackberry.rules.Debian for Debian Etch
543 - updated debian/rules to use new udev rules file
544 - removed debian/postinst, as stable versions of Debian now
545 have a recent udev, and don't need the special handling
546 - updated Debian build scripts to build separate packages:
551 - added menu support to Debian barrybackup-gui package
552 - made the buttons bigger in the backup GUI, as they were too
555 - more progress in porting to opensync 0.30, heavily
556 based on the example plugin in the opensync
557 svn tree... this is a work in progress, and so far
561 - partial porting to opensync 0.30 (in progress!)
562 - fixed bug in sync_done where it reported context error
563 and then success afterward
564 - checking in new INSTALL files based on Etch's autoconf run
565 - added item to gui's todo list
566 - bumped version numbers to 0.8 in:
570 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
574 Release: version 0.7 - 2007/05/02
575 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
577 - added rpm building to maintainer/release scripts

579 - updated maintainer/README
580 - updated maintainer/release.sh to use new HEAD feature too
582 - added pppob to rpm barry.spec
583 - bumped release number in barry.spec
586 - fixed size check bugs (strlen() == 0 when empty)
587 - finished refactoring calendar conversion routines
588 - started timezone parsing, but this may go away
589 if we use opensync 0.30's time functions and
591 - added development note to README
593 - updated README and opensync-plugin/README with more current
596 - refactored some calendar conversion routines
597 - added Barry->vCalendar conversion for recurring appointments
600 - removed some unneeded trace logs
601 - fixed VEventConverter constructor bug, with uninitialized
603 - eased up the requirement that every calendar event
604 must have a summary... defaults to "<blank subject>"
606 - added more VCALENDAR fields to match Barry::Calendar record
607 - fixed case sensitive compares in vformat.c
609 - opensync module work:
610 - added id map class to map string uid's from OpenSync to
611 numeric ID's from the Blackberry
612 - fixed bug in CommitChange() where it was still using
613 a hard coded calendar record state table
614 - added lots of logging throughout
615 - fixed bug where newly added records didn't use the
616 change object's uid, but created a new ID,
617 causing another sync on the next run
618 i.e. (CommitData_t was missing an argument)
619 - fixed bug where uninitialized notification time was
620 written to the Blackberry
621 - more opensync module work:
622 - refactored the environment class into another subclass
623 called DatabaseSyncState, and moved some stand-
624 alone functions from barry_sync.cc into
625 the environment classes
626 - added a tagged constructor to the trace class
627 - fixed idmap::Load() to clear map before loading
629 - renamed barry-config to barry-sync, the default configuration
630 file for the opensync module... and filled it with
631 a sample configuration
632 - added code to update the calendar cache, and write it to disk
633 on success (opensync module)
634 - added code to clear dirty flags in the device (opensync module)
635 - allowed comments in the config file
636 - added vformat.c from libopensync 0.22, since the vformat
637 routines are not available from the plugin side
640 - added -d switch to bcharge to switch back from 0001 to 0004 mode,
641 changed the auto-detection logic to ignore iProduct and
642 only use idProduct, and updated man page
643 - updated breset to recognize the Pearl in 00004 mode as well
644 - changed src/probe.cc logic to assume that the second endpoint
645 pair is the one needed for database communication, instead
646 of doing a reverse search from the end... newer Pearls
647 in Dual mode seem to have at least 3 or 4 endpoint pairs,
648 and the old search didn't always work
649 - applied sourceforge patch #1696884 from Peter Silva, updating
650 the Debian build for Etch, and including all files in one deb
651 - added Peter Silva to AUTHORS file
652 - uncommented the "make distclean" in debian/rules, and removed
653 the reliance on /tmp when installing 99-barry-perms.rules
654 - applied bb_task_format.txt patch from Peter Silva
655 - fixed each misspelling of "recurrance" to "recurrence"
656 - tweaked src/probe.cc again for paranoia's sake... start at
657 offset 1 if more than 1 endpoint pair, otherwise start
659 - split up opensync module into multiple source files, and started
660 using the opensync vformat routines for parsing and building
661 the vevent20 data (experimental)
663 - more incremental work on the opensync plugin, adding ADDED
664 and MODIFIED functionality... (experimental!)
666 - added code to dump extra descriptors during device discovery,
668 - bumped opensync version number in configure.ac, and made
669 the configure scripts more consistent with the rest
671 - fixed printf-format size bug in opensync module
673 - applied patch from Niels de Vos, fixing deb udev rules for Pearl
675 - fixed extra space bug in LDIF output (added space when creating
676 FullName, even if there was no last name)
677 - fixed Address Book record parsing in Contact class... the
678 Blackberry database uses field id 0x20 for both the
679 first and last names, and if only a last name exists,
680 the first name will be empty. Fixed parser to handle
681 this special case, without relying on string length.
682 Thanks to Troy Engel for reporting above two LDIF bugs.
683 - added a few more constants to bcharge.cc
684 - renamed opensync's configure.in to configure.ac
686 - fixed bcharge to avoid endless reset loop... oops
688 - reorganized bcharge.cc to make it possible to switch between
689 Pearl modes 0004 and 0001
690 - added flag to BadPassword exception class, to signal whether
691 the library considers the device "out of retries" or not
692 - updated socket.cc for new BadPassword exception
693 - added special case to Controller class destructor to reset the
694 device if being destroyed in a half-open state... this is
695 a temporary fix until we understand how to handle
696 the "already open" message we get when opening the Desktop
698 - added password prompt dialog to the backup GUI
699 - fixed possible memory leak in GUI's DeviceInterface::Connect()
701 - committed Troy Engel's bbrules_mass_symlinks.patch, fixing
702 udev rules for the Pearl
703 - updated 10-blackberry.rules.Debian to match 10-blackberry.rules's
705 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to generate all required
706 RPM's... Thank you! Notes in the README taken from
707 the sourceforge tracker entry containing the patch.
708 - added libusb lib flags to tools/ and examples/ makefiles,
709 and tweaked configure.ac with a better default,
710 to build cleanly on RHEL 4
711 - modified rpm/barry.spec:
712 - does not create doc-only barry base package anymore
713 - fixed "barry-backup" typo
714 - removed the patch step, as version 0.7 shouldn't need it
715 - added license file to each package
716 - commented out console perms scripts, pending mailing list
719 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to fix RHEL4 compile issues
720 - fixed 80 column wrapping error in barry.spec, thanks to Troy Engel
722 - applied Troy Engel's udev permissions patch for Redhat/Fedora
723 systems, which automatically set the ownership of a
724 newly plugged in device to the currently logged in console
726 - added udev/README to document what all those files are for...
727 part of the text comes from the sourceforge comment
728 on the above udev permissions patch from Troy Engel
729 - uncommented the console perms scripts for rpm/barry.spec
730 - added libglademm-2.4 to gui/README's dependency list
731 - made usbwrap.* calls more threadsafe
732 - added Usb::Timeout exception for timeout errors
733 - added preliminary UsbSerData support to library for GPRS modem
734 functionality, using Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry's serdata.c
736 - added overloaded Socket::Send() for sending without receiving
737 - added preliminary pppob command line tool
743 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
746 - build system tweaks for opensync-plugin, and added a buildgen.sh
748 - added better debug messages in probe.cc and usbwrap.cc's
749 device discovery code
750 - changed error handling for null interface->altsetting pointers
751 when doing device discovery in usbwrap.cc. Seems that
752 some devices report a higher number in bNumInterfaces
753 than are really available... in this case, let's
754 just ignore the missing data and assume success
755 - applied udev script patch #1663986 from Troy Engel
756 - applied barry-bcharge.spec patch #1672178 from Troy Engel
757 - ReleaseChecklist update
758 - added rpm/README based on Troy Engel's patch notes
759 - updated new barry-bcharge.spec for version 0.7, removing patch
762 Release: version 0.6 - 2007/02/28
763 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
765 - fixed size checks for device database records larger than 64K
766 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
767 - added initial release maintainer scripts
768 - fixed odd backup success message in GUI when doing a backup with
769 no databases selected in configuration
770 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
771 - added udev permissions file patch from Michael Brown
772 - added Michael Brown to AUTHORS
773 - updated README, gui/README, and doc/USB-capture.txt
774 - added -o command line switch to bcharge.cc, and updated man page
776 - changed library behaviour so it only turns on libusb debug output
777 if in data dump mode. In btool, -v controls this output.
778 - minor stream formatting fix in btool
779 - added OpenSSL dependency to build for password hash support
780 - made debug dout() output conditional on Init() flag... In btool,
781 -v now controls this as well
782 - reverse engineered more of the initial probe packets, and
783 implemented probing in struct based code... changes include:
784 - added support for "attribute fetch" packets, used at
785 the beginning of USB conversations
786 - defined object/attribute id codes for the PIN number
787 - made Protocol::SocketCommand more robust, and implemented
788 its sequence number behaviour
789 - moved ModeSelectCommand into SocketCommand, as it is a
790 socket 0 level command
791 - added initial protocol struct: PasswordChallenge
792 - renamed Barry::Packet to DBPacket
793 - added ZeroPacket for socket 0 packet creation and analysis
794 - Barry::Packet is now the base class for the above
795 - implemented socket 0 behaviour in socket.cc
796 - changed return values for Send/Receive/Packet/NextRecord
797 members in the Socket class from bool to void, as they
798 don't generate errors themselves, but only can
799 have an error if Usb::Device throws an exception.
800 Cleaned up all code that called these members as well.
801 - removed "last status" from Socket class as it was unused
802 - updated probe.cc to use new socket 0 implementation
803 - removed two of the hard coded packet handshakes in favour
805 - updated controller.cc:
806 - uses new socket 0 implementation
807 - removed "flag" hack when opening sockets and
808 selecting modes, as it should use the
809 socket 0 sequence number
810 - added initial, incomplete prototype header for the C API
811 - updated some .cvsignore files
813 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt, adding rpm spec file
814 - added the following to ZeroPacket:
819 - moved Command() to base Packet class
820 - added comments to protostructs.h and size constants for the
821 new PasswordChallenge struct
822 - added password support to Socket and Controller classes
823 Thanks to Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry for the openssl
824 password hashing logic.
825 - updated btool to use new password support, and updated its man page
827 - updated Doxygen input files and version, and added to ReleaseChecklist
828 - fixed btool PIN output for LDIF mode, now commented in output
829 - major LDIF overhaul:
830 - split LDIF specific code out of the record class and
832 - fixed "full name" behaviour that added an extra space
833 in dn attributes, as reported by Troy Engel
834 - added support for mapping of LDIF attributes to Barry
836 - fixed base64 handling, so attributes are only so encoded
838 - fixed base64 attribute reading inconsistency... some
839 notes fields were missed in old version if not
841 - added support for specifying alternate attribute for
842 constructing a FQDN, instead of just "cn"
843 - updated btool and upldif to use new features
844 - large update to btool manpage
845 - fixed initialization bug in Contact constructor (missed RecType)
847 - added ktrans.cc to make reading of kernel usbfs_snoop logs easier
848 - removed commented code from translate.cc
849 - added Pearl handshake support to bcharge.cc, which resets the
850 Pearl so that the vendor specific 0xFF class exists.
851 This should allow use of btool on the Pearl.
852 - added Data::AppendHexString to data.cc
853 - added better probing support for the Pearl, so it detects the
854 Product ID 0x0004 mode, and does a search for class 0xFF
855 instead of hardcoding it.
857 - applied README patch from Ian Darwin
858 - minor tweaks to README
859 - added missing errno.h header in src/usbwrap.cc for AMD64
860 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting the bug.
861 - tightened up size checks in Data::ReleaseBuffer()
862 - stable libusb *does* return the actual length of the USB packet...
863 fixed this in usbwrap.cc to set the actual size of read data,
864 and removed the size hacks elsewhere in the code:
865 probe.cc, protocol.cc, socket.cc, usbwrap.cc
867 - added proper return codes for error conditions in btool.cc
868 - clarified some stream output code in the library, for hex/dec numbers
869 - removed old, non-working connect.cc test program
870 - added iomanip to debug.h
871 - changed usbwrap to call libusb again if EINTR and EAGAIN
872 This should fix one of the OpenBSD issues
875 - fixed bug in barrybackup GUI that didn't create the target path
876 if the user didn't do Edit | Config first.
877 Thanks to Ian Darwin for reporting the bug.
878 - applied gui/src/ConfigFile.cc header fix patch for OpenBSD
881 - added initial btool.1 man page from Ian Darwin
882 - updated man/Makefile.am for new btool.1
884 - applied btool -h help clarification patch from Ian Darwin
886 - reworked exception hierarchy, so applications can handle all
887 Barry related exceptions, including Usb errors, with
888 one base class: Barry::Error
889 - fixed all the ripple changes this caused throughout the codebase
890 - added BadPassword exception
896 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
897 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
898 - added usb-level breset.cc command line tool
899 - fixed bug in gui/src/tarfile.* for systems where
900 sizeof(int) != sizeof(void*)
901 - TarFile class now uses a plugin style for the compression
902 operations, to allow for threadsafe versions if needed
904 - also fixed leaked file handle bug in open_compressed()
905 - Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this for 64bit systems
906 - minor signed comparison fixes in the library
907 - added better protocol data dumping code in probe.cc
908 - added Usb::Device::BulkDrain(), to prevent Barry from hanging
911 Release: version 0.5 - 2007/01/26
912 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
914 - added missing errno.h header to gui/src/util.cc
915 - lots more endian fixes after testing on iMac
916 - iostream output size fixes
917 - added option to btool to reset the device via software
918 - beefed up exception handling in barrybackup
919 - checked in opensync work-in-progress: trace logging, pointer bugfix
920 this is still experimental
921 - added aboutdialog.* files from gtkmm24 2.10.6, so we have a dialog
922 class for systems running older versions of gtkmm, like
924 - uncommented the about box menu handler
925 - added "cleanall" option to root buildgen.sh script
926 - update ReleaseChecklist.txt
927 - removed CVS auto-history strings from aboutdialog.*
929 - found a link between the unknown field in tagged protocol headers
930 and the unknown field in RecordStateTable entries. This
931 field matters when uploading certain databases, such as
932 Browser Options. It is unknown what this field really
933 means, but we're calling it RecType. Updated the API
934 to use this in all parser objects and builder objects
935 and record objects that use it.
936 - changed some uses of uint64_t to uint32_t, in Contact and
937 Calendar record objects... unique IDs only seem to be
939 - added new static function to record classes: GetDefaultRecType()
940 This returns the default rectype that should work
941 for that record. Ideally this should be retrieved from
942 the device, but in the case where a database has no
943 records, this info would be good to know.
944 - updated convenience template function Controller::AddRecordByType()
945 to use GetDefaultRecType()
946 - documented the recurrence data and how to use it in Calendar objects
947 - added data debug output for incoming USB packets in the
948 socket class... when we ported to the stable libusb
949 we lost some of the verbose output... this should get it
950 back. (In the official release, you need to uncomment
951 ddout() in debug.h for the full blast of debug output).
952 - backup GUI updates:
953 - changed error_done signal into a pure error signal,
954 and changed the logic so the restore continues
955 even if there was a protocol error on one database
956 - changed status bar messages to show what's happening
957 i.e. Backup or Restore
958 - default to not restore the "Handheld Agent" database as
959 it appears to be read-only on the device
960 - added temporary Restore & Backup mode for debugging
961 - added extra hyphen to backup files to show date/time better
962 - updated GUI to save and restore the new RecType field
963 supported now by the library
965 - added future considerations to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
966 - applied big endian patch from Jonathan Hudson
968 - removed endian.h include from barry.h, since applications
969 using the library should not care about endianness
970 - hard coded the path to config.h in endian.h
971 so that endian.h never makes it into the final
973 - removed DEFAULT_INCLUDES setting from src/Makefile.am
975 - removed config.h dependency in btool.cc and used library
977 - added big/little endian text to the Barry::Version call
979 - fixed install location of bcharge when building with ./configure;
980 now goes to sbin/ for both source compile and binary packages
981 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this bug.
983 - added smarter timeout values to controller, and allowed
984 timeout overrides in the packet, socket, and usbwrap code...
985 extra timeouts are needed for erasing databases for
987 - added an explicit DataDumpParser class to btool.cc, as the
988 library doesn't always have extreme verbose debugging on...
989 this makes sure anyone can always get raw database packets
990 through btool, for development
991 - added thread callback signals for error finishes and erase_db
992 operations, so the GUI is updated properly
993 - more GUI cleanups (status bar updates, etc)
994 - finished implementation of GUI restore
995 - fixed gtkmm/glibmm exception handling when the exceptions
996 occur in sigc signal handlers... in that case,
997 exceptions need to be handled with
998 Glib::add_exception_handler()
999 - added filename-only reading support to TarFile class
1000 - added pending gui/TODO items
1002 - backup GUI now properly shows progress
1003 - the buttons become insensitive when backup is busy
1004 - refactored directory check code, and added mkdir check
1005 when to the backup setup (so the directory exists
1006 when we try to write to it)
1007 - updated code to use Barry::Data in new namespace
1009 - moved Data class into Barry namespace
1011 - updated copyright dates for the new year
1012 - clarified exception message in controller.cc
1013 - fixed pointer initialization bug in controller.cc
1014 - added documentation comments to parser.h and builder.h
1015 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt
1017 - changed Barry library configure scripts to make better
1018 use of pkg-config for autodetecting dependencies
1019 - added initial Barry Backup GUI (gui/ directory), capable of making
1020 backups only at this point
1022 - added doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1023 - added version API, returning version number and string
1024 - added Troy Engel to AUTHORS
1025 - added special case to bcharge.cc for the Blackberry Pearl,
1026 which doesn't reset itself after the charge handshake
1027 Thanks to Troy Engel for testing.
1029 - added pkg-config support for the library (libbarry-0.pc.in)
1030 - fixed compile error on g++ 3.3 systems (missing stdint.h
1032 - fixed protocol hang at end of Controller operation... in
1033 controller destructor, it was deleting the USB interface
1034 before closing the socket at the BlackBerry level, thereby
1035 leaving the device in Desktop mode
1037 - support the newer udev packages on Ubuntu, which need slightly
1039 - modified bcharge.cc to search for Pearl devices too.
1041 - added Pearl product ID to probe code, but likely not functional
1042 yet until we find someone able to get a USB capture for us
1044 - version bump in configure.ac and src/Makefile.am
1046 Release: version 0.4 - 2006/12/29
1047 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1049 - added bcharge.cc to the tools/ directory (whoohoo!)
1050 - added initial release version of rpm/barry.spec (aka bcharge.spec)
1051 This begins the barry binary release, currently only
1052 including the bcharge utility, but possibly more in
1053 the future. Future binary packages will likely include
1054 libbarry, libbarry-devel, etc, which barry will then
1056 - added udev rule script for BlackBerry devices
1057 - added man/ directory and bcharge.1 manpage
1058 - added debian/ directory for building deb packages, with initial
1060 - added rpm/make-rpm-tarball.sh for building RPMs
1061 - split out technical docs into separate libbarry.docs file for
1062 a future Debian install
1063 - added more cleaning to buildgen.sh
1064 - added new udev rule file for Debian stable
1065 - hardcoded g++ to 3.3 in debian/rules as I have multiple versions
1066 on my system and need to compile releases with stable
1068 - ported Barry to use the stable branch of libusb
1069 NOTE: no longer depends on the devel libusb tarball!
1070 Just use your distro's libusb packages.
1071 - fixed more endian issues
1072 - minor update to TODO
1074 - moved Exceptions, Hacking, and VersionNotes to doc/
1075 - added doc/USB-capture.txt
1077 - added Controller::AddRecord() and template helper
1078 - added beginning version of generic RecordFetch<> template
1079 - set default of Barry::Init() to false (no data dump mode)
1080 - added examples/ directory, with first addcontact.cc example
1082 - added autoconf support based on Peter McAlpine's patch
1083 - renamed Makefiles to Makefile.orig and added script to turn
1084 on old build system if wanted
1085 - fixed boost-specific error path in btool
1086 - moved platform specific code out of time.h and into time.cc
1087 - moved btool.cc, translate.cc, and upldif.cc out of src/ and
1088 into their own tools/ subdirectory
1089 - added NEWS file to make autotools happy
1090 - added a "clean" option to the buildgen.sh script... maintainer's
1092 - reworked autoconf and automake files, to support
1093 barry as a library, to move the programs into their
1094 own tools directory, and support a proper installation
1095 - fixed headers in parser.h, btool.cc, and upldif.cc to work
1096 properly when installed standalone
1097 - added tools/Makefile.plain for testing compiling against
1098 installed barry library
1099 - added commentary on version number system
1100 - removed Makefile.conf and Makefile.orig, as new autoconf
1101 system supercedes it
1102 - added support for boost serialization library in autoconf build
1103 - added library version number to autoconf build
1104 - changed boost flag to __BARRY_BOOST_MODE__ to avoid collisions
1105 - removed debug.h dependency from btool.cc
1106 - removed libusb check in favour of specific --with-libusb
1107 option... may need to revisit this later
1108 - quick installation update in README
1110 - fixed some missed endian conversions in record.cc and added
1112 - fixed endian issues in time.h
1113 - added 2 more functions to the time zone API, and adjusted
1114 the time zone table for better defaults in North America
1115 - added btool and upldif to the make install sequence
1116 - added support for Calendar recurrence data
1117 - small doc/TimeZones.txt update
1119 - added BlackBerry time zone code list, reverse engineered from a 7750
1120 - added GetTimeZone() to convert device time zone codes to useful data
1122 Release: version 0.0.3 - 2006/11/24
1123 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1125 - added return code check to Controller::SaveDatabase()
1126 - fixed Data() class constructor, so it doesn't auto-convert
1128 - fixed size checking bug in Packet::ReturnCode() that caused
1129 uploading to device to fail
1131 - added Exceptions doc file, documenting the C++ exceptions used,
1133 - fixed small bug in 'make install' which didn't build first
1134 - minor documentation and cleanup in upldif.cc
1135 - added utility functions to the RecordStateTable class,
1136 GetIndex() and MakeNewRecordId()
1137 - changed btool so that the -d command modifiers can be
1138 specified multiple times to work with multiple records
1140 - added Calendar sync code to the opensync module (not complete)
1141 - cleaned up exception handling in the opensync module, making
1142 more use of the base exception to make sure no
1143 exceptions leak into the C library code
1145 Release: version 0.0.2 - 2006/10/12
1146 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1148 - fixed casting error in opensync module
1149 - minor updates to documentation to prepare for release
1151 - added stdint.h to parser.h for uint32_t. Thanks Ron Gage for
1154 - large refactoring of the packet parsing and building code,
1155 splitting the code into 3 groups:
1156 - record: handles record specific parsing and building...
1157 this is mostly subfields with CommonField structs
1158 as their headers, but sometimes has a specific
1159 header of its own, in the case of email
1160 Note: email's header is as yet undecoded.
1161 Record does not know the details of the packet
1162 formats, only the formats of its own record data.
1163 - packet: handles building of complete command packets
1164 and handles parsing of commonly used header values,
1165 providing an API for it... packet does not know
1166 the record format details, but does know the
1167 details of each Database Operation (protocol.h)
1169 So far, it seems that there is a real separation
1170 of operation formats and record formats, with the
1171 record formats being the same even with different
1172 database operation codes (GET_RECORDS /
1173 OLD_GET_RECORDS), which was not confirmed before.
1174 See the header size of the email record after
1176 - controller: handles device state, and the management of
1177 sockets, commands, and checking for response values.
1178 The Controller object does not know the format
1179 of either the record or the packet it is sending,
1180 but does know the protocol handshake logic used
1181 to talk to the device.
1182 - implemented SetRecord (SET_RECORD_BY_INDEX)... syncing, here
1184 - spelling correction in opensync-plugin/AUTHORS
1186 - added sample hotplug scripts
1187 - added .cvsignore files for doxygen and opensync directories
1188 - added src/endian.h... still need to add configure support to
1189 handle non-little-endian machines
1190 - added exception handler in opensync plugin commit_change()
1191 - removed the device reset code in probe.cc, as resetting a device
1192 can renumber the devices in /proc on kernel 2.4.x,
1193 and cause a failure to reach the device...
1194 FIXME - this should be changed someday to reset if probing
1195 fails, and restart the probe on reset, as sometimes
1196 the blackberry devices respond differently when not reset
1197 Ideally, the probe protocol should be properly reverse
1199 - added support for retrieving record state table, which is needed
1201 - added support for retrieving, deleting, and clearing the dirty
1202 flags of individual blackberry device records
1203 - added endian macros throughout the code
1205 - added opensync-plugin to root Makefile's clean
1206 - updated time conversion calls to match opensync's latest SVN
1207 - added opensync_change_set_changetype() (only add for now,
1209 - removed slow sync functions for now
1211 - added quick "install" makefile target, to src/install by default
1212 - added static library target... this is temporary until autoconf
1213 stuff is added properly... needed for the opensync plugin

1238 ServiceBookConfig for now, for lack of a better name
1239 - added parsing for ServiceBook field 0x02 on 72xx Blackberries...
1240 seems to be a name or description, but doesn't appear
1241 in the device's own GUI... called "Hidden Name" for now
1243 - added ServiceBook record class and parser code, based on some
1244 of Ron Gage's reverse engineering... code is by Chris Frey
1245 - added AUTHORS file
1246 - fixed the libusb set_configuration/claim_interface order
1247 bug in controller.{h,cc}... already fixed in probe,
1248 but not controller. Thanks Ron Gage for finding this.

1298 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
1299 throw exception in controller.cc
1300 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
1301 contact data to the device, it may be important to write

1377 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
1378 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
1379 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
1380 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
1381 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
1382 Observed maximum blank count: 1
1383 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
1384 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
1385 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
1386 seem to need more time...)
1387 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
1388 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
1389 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
1390 with Python, if used(?)
1391 - added Message class for Email records

1422 - increased USB default timeout to 2 seconds
1423 - fixed formatting bug in Data operator<< output
1424 - cleaned up the protocol packet structs, getting rid of the

1426 from the Command Table
1427 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
1428 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
1429 the Cassis spec more closely
1430 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing

1432 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
1435 - added Doxyfile to the project
1437 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
1438 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
1439 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent

1447 less buffer than data copied
1448 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
1449 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
1450 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
1451 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
1453 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
1454 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
1456 - implemented socket::Close()
1457 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0

1468 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
1469 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
1470 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
1472 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
1473 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
1474 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
1475 - regular debug output
1476 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
1477 syslog someday, and never turned off)
1478 - raw data dump output
1479 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
1480 numbers into english (limited success)
1481 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
1482 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
1483 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
1484 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
1485 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
1486 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
1487 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
1488 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
1489 for socket 0 operations.
1490 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
1494 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
1495 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
1496 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
1497 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
1499 - syncberry tree started
