1 Release: version 0.15 - 2009/01/??
2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 - applied Andy Herkey's ipmodem password patch for the Bold
5 - minor fixes to above patch, and in addition to above patch:
6 - use sizeof(seed), instead of type, in case of future changes
7 - removed commented out code
8 - added the null password check back to SendPassword(),
10 - removed the null and zero default arguments to
11 SendPassword(), since they make no sense
12 - added define for session key size, and added size check
13 - added missing string.h header to src/m_javaloader.cc
15 - applied Nicolas Vivien's bjavaloader patch
16 - small fixups to above patch:
17 - moved cod.h from installable headers to internal headers
19 - copyright statement tweaks
20 - added blog URLs to copyright list in cod.h where parts
21 of the structs appear to come from
22 - removed unused variables to compile with strict settings
23 - changed char to unsigned char to fix strict compiler
25 - removed duplicated a/b from Socket messages, and moved
26 read/write text to front, in socket.cc
27 - added NetDirect copyright notice to bjavaloader.cc, since
28 it is based on btool.cc
29 - removed unused boost-specific code from bjavaloader.cc
30 - more fixes to above patch: (bjavaloader.cc specifically)
31 - moved cod.h back to installable headers, since tools/
32 programs depend on it... this should be fixed
33 or put in the library as a COD-reading API
34 so that applications don't need to worry about
36 - fixed potential buffer overflow: removed buffer read used
37 to skip ahead in file, and replaced with fseek()
38 - changed SendAppFile() to report errors by exception
39 instead of by return value, which wasn't checked
40 anyway... and C++'d the file handle closing
41 - removed unused StateTableCommand, leftover from btool
42 - added check for unlikely case of COD file being larger
43 than size_t, breaking the fread() assumption
44 for the type == 0xC0DE case
45 - added checks for fread() failures
46 - fixed compiler warnings when comparing signed/unsigned,
47 and changed file operation types from plain int
49 - changes to src/m_javaloader.cc:
50 - fixed comments to remove Desktop-oriented notes
51 - moved variables closer to their use point
52 - removed the duplicated response Data objects in favour
53 of just one (each default Data object uses 0x4000
55 - removed manual endian swap in favour of htobl()
56 - oops... this size field is actually big endian.
57 Since all Barry code assumes that Blackberry
58 protocol traffic is little endian, a special
59 case needs to be added in m_javaloader.cc for
60 this field. The special case uses autoconf's
62 - fixed long long problem in endian.h (ISO C++
63 compilers don't support long long) and made
64 the bswap() functions always available
65 - removed unused CommandType and m_commandTable members
66 - fixed exception error messages to indicate command #
67 instead of Desktop message
68 - changed Packet() call to PacketData() when sending
69 file size, since there is no command
70 - added eout() data dump to socket::Packet() unknown send error
71 - fixed my incorrect off_t/size_t check in bjavaloader.cc
72 - removed the '0' JL_UNKNOWN4 command from src/protocol.h,
73 since the PacketData() change above now handles that,
74 and I don't think that byte is actually a command, but
75 really part of the uint32_t size
76 - Also fixed one remaining 0 command, to use PacketData()
78 - added AT+CLAC note to contrib/modemtest.rb, recording tidbit
80 - updated copyright dates for 2009
82 - fixed missing slash in config sample in doc/www/sync.php
83 Thanks to sourceforge tracker #2413683 for reporting
85 - added more notes to doc/USB-capture.txt, documenting my kernel
86 setup for capturing USB traffic, and added size-limiting
88 - added TODO list item for the Blackberry Storm
90 - moved Product ID constants into a single place (src/common.h)
92 - added Product ID 8007 for the Blackberry Storm... needs testing
94 - applied ppp chat script patch for AT&T Cingular from
96 - added new chat scripts to debian and rpm packages
97 - added known sources of additional Barry binary packages to index.php
98 - turned on call/caller graph support in Doxygen output
100 - applied 'patch' of Martin Owens' Content Store documentation
103 - large refactoring of all message/email record classes, and more
104 There is now a MessageBase base class, which combines
105 common email record parsing code in one class. This base
106 class is reused by all the specific messages record classes.
107 This commit also includes support for multiple email
108 addresses per email, as well as giving IConverter support
109 to all message classes.
110 - deleted empty *.cc files from project
111 - updated TODO file, removing opensync i18n bug
112 - added TODO item for password support in Opensync... try to avoid
113 storing the password in the sync config in plain text
114 - fixed dll export bug on ErrnoError exception class
115 - added BadPackedFormat exception for internal use
116 - ServiceBook: added IConverter support, and general cleanup
117 Refactored ServiceBook class and added some experimental
118 template functions to generalize the FieldLink table
119 processing. If possible, this needs to be expanded
120 to the general record classes, to reduce the amount of
121 code duplication during processing of FieldLinks and
122 CommonField structures.
123 Also, ServiceBook deals with packed fields, which should
124 also be extrapolated for general use, and reused if
125 possible for the new "Calendar - All" Blackberry databases
126 that are coming out on the new devices and firmare.
128 - updated man/btool.1 with new -i option
129 - fixed bug where opensync plugin didn't pass IConverter to Desktop
130 - added IConverter support to r_calendar.cc
131 - renamed utf8Needed to iconvNeeded, for consistency
132 - added IConverter support to r_folder.cc
133 - added IConverter support to r_memo.cc
134 - added IConverter support to r_message.cc
135 - added EmailAddressList, in preparation for multi-address email
137 - changed Parser base class to pure abstract... this is so that
138 future API changes to the Parse base class will be
139 detected by the compiler as errors
140 - added NullParser class, which performs the old Parser function
141 - changed all FieldLink arrays to static
142 - added new IConverter class to support converting the Blackberry's
143 WINDOWS-1252 charset to/from UTF-8 and more
144 - fixed bug in IConverter that saved end of string instead of
146 - reorganized barry.h app header and record.h header, so that
147 internal builds have fewer dependencies
148 - large parser/builder API change, adding IConverter support
149 This change starts at the top (Mode::Desktop) which
150 takes an optional IConverter object for parsing and
151 building conversions. The Desktop class passes
152 this IConverter object to Packet, Parser, and Builder (and
153 thereby, the corresponding Record classes) as needed.
154 This adds an extra pointer to a fair number of calls
155 in the stack, but maintains flexibility without putting
156 too much of a burden on Parser writers, which could be
158 The primary use of this architecture is to pass in an
159 IConverter configured to convert to UTF-8... this is
160 basically the only useful conversion method, but others
161 are possible if you want to play.
162 - first record class to support string conversions: Contact
163 - reverted the barry.h and record.h reorganization, since
164 the gui depends on it
165 - reorganized barry.h and record.h again, making inclusion of
166 the record headers dependent on whether it is a library
168 - updated the gui with the parser/builder API change
169 - added IConverter to opensync plugin, set to UTF-8
171 - added comment to src/r_contact.h deprecating the Phone field
172 - updated Doxyfile to 1.5.1
173 - added Christopher D. Stover to AUTHORS file as Fedora contact
175 - forgot #include <string.h> for memcpy/memset in tools/bfuse.cc
176 - moved bfuse install point from /usr/sbin to /usr/bin
178 - added FUSE filesystem "driver"
180 - commented out the info.subsystem match level in HAL FDI file...
181 this should let the FDI work on old and new systems.
182 HAL version 0.5.8 (used by Debian Etch) has the deprecated
183 info.bus property, and doesn't have info.subsystem yet.
184 - added HAL FDI scripts to rpm/barry.spec
185 - fixed tools/Makefile.plain
187 - added support for multiple work/home phone numbers to the
189 - Thanks to Richard Esplin for his test data.
190 - This fix has a conflict when a cell phone number is
191 marked as the preferred contact as well.
192 See http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=20081030231045.GA28989%40foursquare.net
193 for the full details.
194 - This fix also changes the VCARD output... pager phone
195 numbers are given the TYPE code of "pager"
197 - Added OtherPhone field as well
199 - applied HAL FDI scripts and configuration from Martin Owens
200 - updated AUTHORS file
201 - added HAL FDI and python script to Debian package install
203 - updated copyright notice and help text in contrib/modemtest.rb
204 - changed barry-verizon.chat script according to Andy Herkey's
205 recommendation... this worked much better for Michael L.
206 Stokes, since his provider was getting stuck on the ATZ
208 - applied Andy Herkey's modemtest.rb ruby script to contrib/
209 from his Aug 9, 2008 email to the mailing list
210 - applied Andy Herkey's new modemtest.rb script to contrib/
211 from his Oct 8, 2008 email to the mailing list
212 - added password pass-through code for pppob -s mode
213 - clarified front page www doc, adding date of last release
215 - cherry-picked changes from Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo's debian git repo
216 - debian/rules was stripping wrong library names
217 - FSF address was incorrect (also updated other source
218 files throughout the tree myself)
219 - more complete debian/copyright file
225 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
229 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
230 - added link to doxygen documentation to www index.php
232 Release: version 0.14 - 2008/09/24

236 official Debian packages which start at 0.14-1
237 - moved Doxyfile from src/Makefile.am to Makefile.am
238 - made RPM spec file match debian version number
239 - www documentation updates for 0.14

245 - added notes in ReleaseChecklist.txt regarding the new tarball
246 tags in the git repos
248 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
249 - moving items from private todo list to TODO file
250 - removed unused variable from maintainer/git-release-tar.sh
251 - added new maintainer/git-tagged-tar.sh, which puts more data
252 in the git repo, to make it easier for official Debian
254 - moved src/Doxyfile to ./Doxyfile to avoid ".." in the config...
255 the ".." paths confused doxygen and caused it to generate
256 non-relative paths in the documentation.
257 - added umask to maintainer/git-extract.sh, so it works even without
259 - updated maintainer/tar-prepare.sh to match the new Doxyfile
260 - added maintainer/tagged-release.sh, as replacement for the
261 release.sh top level script, when using git
262 - removed CVS-style ID code from contrib/barry-unbind-storage.sh
263 since it made it look like cdfrey wrote it
264 - removed doc/CodingStyle.txt as it is now documented in html
266 - added device name and backup label support to the GUI
267 It is now possible to name devices, instead of just
268 operating by PIN number, and it is possible to now
269 add a text label to the backup tar filenames.
270 - added the device names to the device selection dialog
272 - updated TODO list with i18n opensync bug and general i18n support
273 - added test suite to TODO list
275 - renamed libbarry to libbarry0 in rpm/barry.spec
276 - added %dump to rpm/barry.spec to match the OBS version
277 Makes it easier to track variable changes across
279 - added note to NEWS regarding binary package renaming
281 - fixed logic error in breset that displayed error on success
282 Thanks to Richard Esplin for reporting this bug.
283 - applied commit's from Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo's debian git repo
284 git://git.debian.org/git/users/jsogo/barry.git
285 - Add binary dependency of libbarry-dev on libusb-dev
286 - Rename libbarry to libbarry0, per debian policy
287 - Add exact dependency on binary:Version for every
288 -dbg and -dev package
289 - Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.0
291 - clarified barrybackup error message when no records available
292 Added a check so that "no databases selected" and
293 "no records available" are two distinct error messages.
295 - applied ppp chat script patch from Mick Reed
296 - updated RPM and Debian packages with new tmobileus ppp scripts
297 - added T-Mobile US to web documentation
299 - clarified sync docs regarding slow-sync... avoid it if possible
300 - tuned doxygen config, and moved generated files to doc/www/doxygen
301 - added git-release-tar.sh, replacing CVS's make-release-tar.sh
302 Also added doxygen to the release tarball creation, so
303 the source code's doxygen documentation is automatically
304 generated upon release.
305 - split git-release-tar.sh into reusable component scripts
307 - added exception handler for invalid command line options in GUI
308 - fixed barrybackup man page, removing bad -v option
309 - added distro section to AUTHORS
310 - fixed comment and whitespace problems in time.{h,cc}
311 - Converted Birthday from string to Date, and added Anniversary
312 support. Birthday and Anniversary fields now use a new
313 Date struct, and Barry validates the data to some extent.
314 - updated example code and opensync plugin to match
315 - applied Lee Dixon's Location and Description plugin patch,
316 with minor whitespace edits
318 - added Birthday field to examples/addcontact.cc for testing
320 - applied Lee Dixon's Birthday field and opensync patch
321 - fixed coding format issues
324 - fixed bug in m_ipmodem.cc that included a null terminator in
326 - fixed RFC 2426 conformance bug... RFC 2426, 3.1.1 states that FN
327 MUST be present in the vcard object. If there is no name
328 available, then we use the Company name if available. It
329 should be, since the Blackberry requires either name or Company
330 in order to create a new address. If Company is blank too, then
331 we insert "(Blank Name)".
332 - On the flip side of this same bug, it is possible to receive
333 non-conformant vcard data from evolution / opensync
334 that does not include FN. Since the Blackberry
335 doesn't require this information, remove the
336 exception, and only throw an exception if FN
337 or Company are both blank.
338 - REVERT: removed the Company and "(Blank Name)" workarounds,
339 and just produce an invalid vcard if no full name,
340 since with multiple syncing, this will come back
341 to bite us with duplicated Company name data
342 - added sanity check to contact class for blank name and company
343 - added BadData exception class, and documented it
345 - fixed bug in vAttr::GetValue that ignored index for single valued
346 attributes... this should fix the endless loop / memory
347 exhaustion that some people have been seeing
348 Thanks to Lee Dixon for reporting this bug in detail!
349 - added TODO list item for implementing recurring calendar items
355 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
359 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
360 - updated web docs showing how to set the password when using modem
361 - added section to docs on how to test the modem connection
363 Release: version 0.13 - 2008/07/28
364 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

368 - added section for external links to main index page
369 - fixed doc bug about how to install libtar
370 - added O2 Ireland to list of modem scripts
371 - removed ubuntu80464 and fc6 from binary package list
375 - applied barry-unbind-storage.sh script from Niels de Vos...
376 added to contrib for now, in the interests of getting
377 version 0.13 released soon... we can work on integrating
378 this better in 0.14, which hopefully won't take so long :-)
380 - added g++ (>= 4.1) to Debian build dependency list
381 - added support to base library and utilities for multiple email
382 addresses in Contact records
383 - added opensync support for multiple contact email addresses
384 - applied ppp chat scripts for O2 Ireland from Simon Kenyon
386 - integrated O2 Ireland scripts into binary package installs
388 - applied David Mansfield's opensync module password patch (ported
389 manually to latest upcoming 0.13)
391 - added password documentation to sample barry-sync module config
392 - updated web docs with new password sample config
394 - removed old, unused spec file and scripts for bcharge-only release
395 - fixed rpm build instructions in web docs
396 - reduced minimum password retry level from 6 to 3... Reinhold Schoeb
397 reports that his 8800 device only lets him set a password
398 retry range between 3 and 5, instead of the usual 10 that
401 - added "known issues" section to main www doc page
402 - fixed virtual function mis-name bug in btool's null parser
403 - added -i option to brecsum, to include record IDs in the sums
404 - applied Ashley Willis's btool 0.12 null parser patch to CVS, which
405 required some manual porting changes...
406 - removed bool reference argument in GetParser()
408 - applied Ashley Willis's perlbarry package, putting it in the
409 new contrib/ directory
411 - now that btool patch is applied, don't need it in contrib
412 - removed openssl from dependencies documentation, as barry now
413 has its own sha1 code
414 - added libtool to dependencies documentation
415 - rpm/barry.spec file now assumes gui and opensync, with conditional
416 checks depending which system it is being built on...
417 --with gui and --with opensync are no longer needed.
418 - updated release scripts to build RPMs with the new spec file
420 - updated udev rules to recognize devices with the 8004 Product ID
421 - fixed bug in test/buildtest.sh when opensync is not pre-built
422 - fixed more lintian warnings on Ubuntu
423 - fixed tiny subheadings in modem web document
424 - added syncing howto web document
425 - updated TODO list, adding Troubleshooting item, and morphing
426 the modem item into the RPC daemon item
427 - moved old doc/TroubleShooting.txt document to web, and updated
429 - added tip to sync web docs, for using DebugMode on hangs
431 - changed test/buildtest.sh so it is safe to run from outside
432 the directory that contains it
433 - added note to patch webpage regarding testing patches to the
435 - removed mis-configured 'make dist' check from buildtest.sh
436 - added missing 'scoped_lock.h' to src/Makefile.am's non-installed
437 headers, as it is an internal header only
438 - improved buildtest.sh: speed, accuracy
439 - added -j option to make to speed builds
440 - moved cleanall check above 'make dist' as dist doesn't
441 clean up after itself
442 - commented out 'make distcheck' for now, as it doesn't work
443 - added DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS to root Makefile.am, similar to
444 David Everly's patch in tracker # 1973536
445 Thanks David! 'make distcheck' now works, but only in
446 an environment like buildtest.sh creates.
447 Also, buildtest.sh passes all tests now, including distcheck.
449 - removed unused src/controllertmpl.h
450 - added ppp and test directories to Makefile.am EXTRA_DIST
452 - added beginnings of a build system test script
453 - fixed sha1.h so it is installed by src/Makefile.am

459 - added modem reset workaround to web documentation page
460 - applied Andy Herkey's ipmodem password patch, round 1
461 - applied Andy Herkey's ipmodem password patch, round 2
462 - cleaning up some rough edges to the ipmodem patches:
463 - removed commented out code in pppob.cc
464 - added BXLOCAL to private member SendPasword()
465 - added try/catch in IpModem destructor
466 - removed FIXME comment about endian issues
467 - added data size checks to SendPassword()
469 - renamed class variable session_key to match others
470 - added check to skip password if "" is passed in
471 - added the m_filter for ipmodem PPP 0x7e filtering
472 back, since the 8320 w/ rogers seems to need it
475 - added timeout argument to Device::BulkDrain()
476 - added mozilla's sha1 code from git
477 - removed openssl dependency due to license issues
478 Debian and Ubuntu have checks in their lintian tool that
479 check for GPL+OpenSSL linkage. In order to remove any
480 potential obstacles to future inclusion in those distros,
481 the dependency is removed here in favour of the small
482 mozilla implementation which is GPL.
484 - added notes to web documentation for OpenBSD
485 - documentation updates:
486 - changed git patch command to use format-patch
487 - added instructions for building from tarball
488 - added bugs.php and contact.php pages

499 - updated pppob manpage with -P option
500 - fixed missing -P option in btool manpage
501 - updated rpm spec file history
502 - added pppob manpage to rpm spec file

504 and updated the build process to support them.
505 Also updated date for pppob manpage.
506 - updated rpm spec file with new manpages
507 - added ProductID code 0x8004 to breset.cc
508 - minor whitespace and usage text fix in upldif.cc

517 - fixed missing #includes in src/data.cc
518 - fixed compile errors in library, utils, and plugin when compiling
519 with new gcc 4.3.x... gui not yet finished
521 - added minimum g++ version to website dependency docs
524 - reorganized sample ppp options files so they are easier to compare,
525 enabled "usepeerdns" in both, and disabled the speed
526 setting in barry-verizon

530 - added page for USB modem / pppob
532 - added sample ppp options files for Verizon Blackberries
533 Sample files from Michael L. Stokes
535 - renamed sample ppp peer files, in preparation for installing
536 them automatically in binary packages
537 - modified verizon options file to use pppob
538 - split the sample rogers options file into options and chat files
540 - put sequence packet check directly in the SocketZero::RawReceive()
541 function, which now localizes all sequence packet
542 handling and checking, as well as avoids packet
543 order problems when multiple sockets are in use,
544 such as with pppob...
545 FIXME - this localized sequence checking may make all
546 the calls to CheckSequence() obsolete which
547 should probably be cleaned up someday, if so.
548 - reorganized src/socket.cc to match class private/public
549 order (no code change, only move)
550 - added verbose log message to Controller constructors, so it is
551 possible to determine whether a program is using
552 threaded or non-threaded sockets
553 - added -z and -Z command line options to btool to control
554 the non-threaded/threaded behaviour, respectively;
555 and updated the man page
556 - removed debug sleep() calls from pppob
557 - added SIGINT signal handler so pppob shutsdown gracefully when
560 - mention CVS and git on main documentation "how to" list
561 - moved PPP filter logic into its own class
562 - enhanced PPP filter class to support prepending of
563 empty bytes if needed, in order to reduce data
564 copying, and clarified why there is no GetBuffer()
565 - added ProbeResult::HasIpModem() to determine whether
566 IpModem endpoints are available
567 - added pure virtual Modem base class for common
568 modem-oriented API (only Open and Write so far)
569 - Mode::IpModem is now derived from Barry::Modem
570 - experimental implementation for Mode::Serial,
571 which is now derived from Barry::Modem,
573 - pppob now supports IpModem and Serial modes, and logging
574 to file instead of stderr
575 - added man page for pppob
577 - modified the planned version numbering scheme in doc/VersionNotes,
578 so that a 1.0 is possible, with 1.50 as the devel series
580 - continuing to update html documentation in preparation for
583 - removed -fvisibility-inlines-hidden compile options since some
584 distros have old or broken compilers or libraries where
585 the build breaks looking for STL templates (Ubuntu 7.10,
586 I'm looking at you...)
587 - changed brecsum so usage information is displayed automatically
588 if no command line arguments are specified
589 - added opensync-plugin to maintainer test scripts, and added
590 ubuntu710 to the test build sequence
592 - updated doc/TroubleShooting.txt
593 - removed usb_control message check from IpModem endpoint probing
594 in src/probe.cc, since some devices, like the 8700
595 have both RIM_UsbSerData mode and IpModem mode.
596 - fixed serialization code for Calendar record class, in s11n-boost.h
597 - made UnknownField's data member into its own type,
598 so that when building records, it doesn't get processed
599 like a null terminated string... also added more
600 BuildField() helper functions for accuracy
601 - fixed missing fields in the Calendar record build process
602 - added Calendar to list of Builders in tools/btool...
603 it is now possible to run: btool -s "Calendar" -f datafile
604 - added tools/brecsum program, which calculates SHA1 checksums
605 on database records, for testing
606 - added brecsum to debian and rpm builds
607 - added recurrence builder function to Calendar record builder code
608 which completes builder support
609 Checksums from the following commands now match:
610 brecsum -d Calendar > sum1.txt
611 btool -d Calendar -f calendar.dat
612 btool -s Calendar -f calendar.dat
613 brecsum -d Calendar > sum2.txt
614 diff -u <(sort sum1.txt) <(sort sum2.txt)
616 - applied Jason Thomas's ACLOCAL_FLAGS patch to make autoreconf
617 work again... Thanks!
618 - applied Jason Thomas's debian build dependency patch
621 - started documentation overhaul in doc/www, putting the commonly
622 asked questions right on the front page, and making it more
623 goal-oriented, so it is hopefully easier to use
626 - fixed error messages in m_desktop.cc that still referred
629 - major merge of barry-b1-socket-arch-branch into MAIN.
630 The following is the changelog from that branch, which is now MAIN.

646 - also added ProbeResult constructor
647 - merged changes from visibility branch:
648 - GCC visibility support, limiting what symbols are
649 visible in the shared library, libbarry... this makes

756 See: http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility
758 Release: version 0.12 - 2008/03/21
759 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
761 - changed maintainer script to use CVS export instead of checkout,
762 to avoid the CVS directories
763 - added support for building Debian source packages with proper
764 diff.gz and dsc files
765 - fixed find warning in maintainer/make-rpm.sh
766 - added support for Ubuntu binary packages to the maintainer build
769 - renamed all vformat_ and VFormat symbols in opensync plugin's
770 copy of vformat code, so they don't conflict with the
771 real opensync libraries
773 - updated the install.php web page with Paul Dugas's notes on
774 building RPM's from CVS
775 - fixed problem in tools/Makefile.am where bs11nread was included
776 in build, even if --with-boost was not specified
777 on ./configure command line
779 - changed format of Boost serialization file output from btool,
780 so that the database name is stored as the first line
782 - added tools/bs11nread.cc to read Boost serialization file data
784 - minor adjustments to r_message.h and r_timezone.h
785 - updated s11n-boost.h header to match record classes
787 - applied Time Zone parsing patches from Brian Edginton
788 - added Time Zones to list of supported parsers in btool.cc
790 - changed configure.ac to use bzip2 for "make dist".. thanks to
791 Paul Dugas for the tip
793 - committed Chris Burgess's update to the roadmap document
794 - applied Paul Dugas's x86-64 build patch, except the
795 tar.bz2/tar.gz change
796 - updated AUTHORS file
798 - fixed configure.ac's --with-boost option, so that without args,
799 it defaults to using --includedir and --libdir settings,
800 instead of hardcoding /usr/include and /usr/lib... this
801 should allow smarter compiling on 64 bit systems
802 - updated RPM spec file to use new --with-boost behaviour
803 - ahem, fixed configure.ac again... don't use --includedir and
804 --libdir, as those are install targets... oops.
805 Don't add path overrides at all if not specified.
807 - fixed locale issues in src/data.cc
808 - updated copyright statments for 2008
810 - applied wording correction patch to btool from Matt LaPlante
812 - changed hard coded databases names in btool to calls to
813 <recordclass>::GetDBName()
818 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
822 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
825 Release: version 0.11 - 2007/12/01
826 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
828 - fixed null pointer bug in Probe class (bug #1842407)
829 - added pause to maintainer release script
835 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
839 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
841 Release: version 0.10 - 2007/11/30
842 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
844 - added support to the usbwrap Match class to limit its
845 search by busname / devname
846 - added support to the Probe class to limit its search for
847 Blackberry devices to a given bus or device name
848 - added command line options to btool for the above Probe
849 bus/device names, and updated the man page
850 - updated the www docs with regard to the new usb_storage
851 behaviour and the new blacklist files... less
852 concern about berry_charge and usb_storage conflicts
853 - added bidentify tool and accompanying man page
854 - fixed bug in rpm maintenance script that used the wrong
855 spec file for opensuse
857 - added better error checking to breset
858 - commented the sleep() for the 8830
859 - added code to handle the race condition where usb_storage
860 claims the device before bcharge arrives on the scene,
861 by asking the kernel to detach the driver from
862 the Mass Storage interface... this change makes it
863 possible to run bcharge, moving from 0006 to 0004
864 to 0001 and back to 0004, all *while* usb_storage
866 - changed Probe class behaviour so that it will not throw an
867 exception on Device Busy (-EBUSY) but instead
868 log the error in an internal array and keep going.
869 This makes it possible to use btool and barrybackup
870 with two devices plugged in at the same time.
871 BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY NOTE: this changes initializaion
872 behaviour, but in practice, it should only
873 make applications look more capable, not less.
874 - updated btool to show errors logged by Probe
875 - added message to specify which PIN device is being used by btool
876 - added explanatory comments to udev rules files, about why
879 - added ClearHalt() calls to probe and controller classes, just
880 before any communication happens... the 8830 seems
883 - added usbwrap.cc:GetConfiguration()
884 - added code to check whether the configuration is the one
885 we require, before calling SetConfiguration()... and not
886 to call it if unnecessary. This allows us to run
887 at the same time as usb_storage.
888 Thanks to Martin Owens for not letting this issue go. :-)
889 - added sleep to bcharge, before calling usb_reset()... the
890 Blackberry 8830 behaves like a Pearl device in that
891 it has mass storage support, but behaves like a Classic
892 in that it resets itself... the usb_reset() seems
893 to reset it back to 0006. The sleep allows the device
894 to disappear via its own reset, and let usb_reset()
895 fail naturally on these devices.
896 This is not an ideal solution... mainly for testing.
898 - added modprobe/blacklist-berry_charge as per Simon Ruggier's
899 suggestion. Thanks also to Niels de Vos for a similar
901 - fixed udev rules to work on both old and new distros
902 Thanks to Duncan Mak for the bug report.
904 - fixed string comparison to use case insensitive compare in
906 - updated Debian package to include modprobe blacklist file
907 - updated rpm spec file to include modprobe blacklist file
908 - split the maintenance scripts into release and test, so
909 that release package builds can be done faster
911 - opensync plugin fixes:
912 - fixed memory leak in vBase::GetAttr()
913 - added support in vformat parser to parse "blocks"
914 and keep track of the hierarchy when
915 parsing an iCalendar, etc.
916 - added support for searching for attributes only
917 inside certain blocks (i.e. find first
918 DTSTART in VEVENT block, not VTIMEZONE block)
920 - fixed bug in Calendar::Clear, missing the Free / Class
921 member variables, leaving them uninitialized
922 - added examples/addcalendar.cc
923 - added more logging to the opensync plugin, logging the
924 ToBarry conversion results
925 - added code to force struct tm.tm_isdst to -1 before calling
927 - fixed typo in previous fix
929 - renamed ktrans and translate to bktrans and btranslate to avoid
930 file name clashes with libtranslate of Gnome
931 Closes bug #1812410 reported by Troy Engel.
936 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
940 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
941 - fixed missing default config file in the debian package for
943 Closes bug #1812224 reported by Ariel (adonatti).
944 - added debian dbg packages for tracing segfaults
945 - modified maintainer scripts so debug packages would reference
946 source code located in /usr/src/barry-0.9, etc.
948 Release: version 0.9 - 2007/10/12
949 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
951 - adjusted autosuspend disabling code in bcharge, based on new
952 information on how kernels 2.6.21 / 2.6.22 work.
953 See bcharge.cc for comments. If device/power/level or
954 device/power/autosuspend exist, charging should now work
955 without recompiling the kernel.
956 - updated website docs with autosuspend info
958 - large update to the doc/www web pages, moving some of the
959 information in README files to html format, so that it
960 is commonly available on the web
961 - added step in maintenance scripts to automatically build the
962 .html files in doc/www when making a tarball release
964 - added libopensync 0.22 version requirement to barry.spec file,
965 but it doesn't seem to work on OpenSuSE 10.2, where it's
968 - updated README to mention new tree build configure options
969 - fixed the configure scripts and makefiles so that when building
970 with custom CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables,
971 it doesn't break the full-tree build mode, when
972 using --enable-gui and/or --enable-opensync-plugin
973 - added config.h.in~ to buildgen.sh clean target
974 - converted Debian build scripts to use cdbs
975 - added opensync plugin binary package for Debian
976 - added "Getting Started" section to web pages, as well as an
977 explanatory document for various system requirements
978 - turned on opensync build in RPM maintainer scripts
980 - added filename to power/state error message in bcharge.cc
981 - adjusted maintainer scripts to automatically adjust barry.spec
982 for opensuse rpm builds
984 - fixed some of the release build scripts and added support for
985 automated opensuse 10.2 builds
986 - fixed build target to i386
987 - changed scripts to add to PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable instead
990 - added website docs to doc/www... these are out of date at the
991 moment, and hopefully by including them here, they
992 will be updated more frequently
994 - applied Simon Ruggier's build system patch that allowed a build
995 of all 3 components from the root directory and fixed the
996 configure scripts to support external build directories
997 - reordered clean commands in the buildgen.sh scripts, and removed
998 the INSTALL files, since they are auto-generated by autoconf
999 - removed extraneous buildgen.sh calls in maintainer scripts
1000 - added Simon Ruggier to AUTHORS
1001 - added explanatory note to 3 stage test build process in
1004 - fixed Category handling in the Contact record class, to
1005 parse the comma separated string into an array,
1007 Note: this involves a change to the boost serialization
1008 and will affect backward compatibility with
1009 old serialization datafiles
1010 - added Category to examples/addcontact.cc
1011 - added Category support to the opensync plugin
1013 - fixed wrong read/write in btool output (oops)
1014 - added BadSize exception, and changed CheckSize() function
1015 to throw it on error
1016 - changed backup GUI to catch BadSize exceptions on initial
1017 connect, and try a reset if that error occurs, since
1018 that likely means the device didn't shutdown properly
1019 - fixed in opensync plugin:
1020 - some vcard data contains types codes in capital letters,
1021 so added lower case conversion routine
1022 - changed the order of address lines, so that address1
1023 is the street, address2 is the extended address,
1024 and address3 is the PO Box. The Blackberry
1025 doesn't seem to have any PO Box field.
1027 - added -e endpoint override option to btool
1028 - added status message to endpoint override
1030 - added configure check for strnlen, and implementation for
1031 systems that don't have it, or that have it implemented
1032 incorrectly. Went a little paranoid here, since
1033 AC_FUNC_STRNLEN doesn't set a define in config.h,
1034 so I had to do it manually, and check in case autoconf
1035 changes in the future... ugh. See src/strnlen.h for
1037 - added code in probe.cc to fetch the device's description.
1038 The description is now part of the probe results
1039 along with the PIN. Updates to protocol.h, adding
1040 a new attribute definition.
1041 Thanks to Rick Scott for pointing out the code in
1042 XmBlackberry where he implemented this first.
1043 - fixed header dependency in record-internal.h
1044 - updated the "required autoconf" version to 2.61 for root build
1045 - moved nested structs out of the record classes that contain them,
1046 in order to better support SWIG and Python
1048 - changed bcharge to use getopt() for its argument processing
1049 - added options -p and -s to bcharge, to adjust usb suspend
1050 settings automatically where possible
1051 - updated the udev rules to use the new bcharge settings
1052 - updated the bcharge man page with the new arguments
1054 - cleaned up Usb exception handling, moving libusb error code
1055 processing into the Usb::Error exception class.
1056 error.cc is now an empty shell
1057 - added return codes to the Usb::Error exceptions
1058 - removed aboutdialog.{h,cc} from the backup GUI since even
1059 Debian stable now has up-to-date gtkmm libraries
1060 - added more user friendly error message for the "device busy"
1061 case, recommending 'rmmod usb_storage'.
1063 - added better error checking to bcharge.cc
1068 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
1072 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
1073 - removed usb_set_configuration() check from bcharge.cc, since
1074 that may fail under normal operation, in this case
1076 Release: version 0.8 - 2007/08/03
1077 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1079 - moved Interface implementation to usbwrap.cc file
1080 - added dout debugging messages to usbwrap.cc
1081 - clarified unhandled packet error message in socket.cc
1082 - added temporary workaround in opensync-plugin environment's
1083 Reconnect(), for odd message seen on newer Blackberry
1085 - fixing issues with Brian Edginton's MessageRecord patch (2007/06/29)
1086 - fixed missing size check in message oriented ParseHeader()
1087 - fixed endian conversion issues (also found one pre-existing
1088 endian bug in the process)
1089 - moved message timestamp converter code to time.cc
1090 - added Barry version number to opensync plugin name
1091 - changed maintainer scripts and rpm.spec to use bzip2 instead of gzip
1092 - added opensync-plugin to configure script build
1093 - added -S option to btool, to list supported parsers and builders
1094 - slight change to opensync-plugin/buildgen.sh to cleanup config.h.in~
1095 - opensync-plugin/README update
1096 - added opensync-plugin/patches for others who may be building and
1097 testing the plugin with OpenSync 0.22
1098 - added debian package build scripts to maintainer/
1100 - added entry to doc/TroubleShooting.txt
1102 - added doc/TroubleShooting.txt
1105 - fixed bug in vcard.cc that was using the FN field
1106 for the broken-down name instead of N
1107 - added dbId and dbName to DatabaseSyncState
1108 - added Reconnect() functionality to BarryEnvironment class
1109 and moved connect logic out of barry_sync.cc
1110 - changed the batch commit functionality in barry_sync.cc
1111 to single-change-commit. Why? Because opensync
1112 0.22 groups all batch changes into one group
1113 and calls one batch commit function, even if you
1114 registered two. Moving to single change commit
1115 mode removes a chunk of unneccessary code
1116 from the plugin as well, and can in theory
1117 ease memory pressure in the library.
1118 - added FinishSync() to perform actions needed on successful
1120 - disconnect on successful sync completion, and reconnect,
1121 since the device's dirty flags don't seem to
1122 be updated until a disconnect occurs.
1124 - added ReadDataArray() to data.h, using an istream instead of
1126 - added raw data version of BuildField() to record-internal.h
1127 This is so that btool doesn't add extra null terminators
1128 to unknown data, when restoring with option -s
1129 - fixed bugs in r_contact.cc:
1130 - fixed bug that caused a LastName/FirstName swap
1131 if FirstName was empty and you wrote a contact
1132 record into the device.... First/Last Name
1133 fields are position sensitive, and the code
1134 was missing the empty FirstName case on writing
1135 - fixed bug in BuildFields() and Dump() where they
1136 were not updated to handle the new field
1137 table added for the postal address changes
1140 - changed the plugin config file, so it is possible to
1141 turn debug output on/off without recompiling
1142 - moved the standalone Map2Uid() function into
1143 the DatabaseSyncState class, and changed the
1144 code to produce "contact-#" and "calendar-#"
1145 UID strings, instead of just numbers
1146 - changed default PIN to -1, so that if the user doesn't
1147 configure properly, it will fail... this is a
1148 safety measure to avoid syncing with different
1149 devices and corrupting the cache/idmap...
1150 this should be fixed someday, to handle this
1152 On second thought... is this right? Perhaps
1153 it is better to fail if the PIN is not what
1154 is expected, so a user doesn't accidentally
1155 sync the wrong device and lose data.
1156 Actions to take on new PIN:
1157 - force slow_sync, or
1159 - incorporated the new VCardConverter code into the
1160 main barry_sync.cc plugin code
1161 - fixed bug that did not clear the devices dirty flags
1162 in the case where a sync only read data from it,
1164 - changed PIN error message number to hex
1166 - minor wording change in backup GUI prompt: "Backup working..." to
1167 "Backup in progress..."
1168 - renamed Contact class's Title field to JobTitle for clarity
1169 - added record function ParseFieldString(), which properly handles
1170 strings from the device that have multiple null terminators,
1171 and changed the record parsing code to use this new function
1172 - moved FullName() function from ldif.cc to r_contact.cc since it
1173 is generally useful in areas outside of LDIF processing
1174 - refactored postal addresses in the Contact record class into
1175 a new class called PostalAddress
1176 - renamed Address class in record.h to EmailAddress
1177 - moved Contact::GetPostalAddress() to record.cc as part of the
1178 new PostalAddress class and renamed it
1179 PostalAddress::GetLabel()
1181 - refactored vformat helpers into separate base class
1183 - added vCard converter class
1184 - commented out the code that skipped over the adding
1185 of empty attribute values and parameters,
1186 since VCARD depends on some of this behaviour
1187 - movified vformat.c:vformat_find_attribute() to take
1188 an extra nth argument, in order to search
1189 for multiple attributes with the same name...
1190 the way this is coded is a bit inefficient...
1191 but we're moving away from vformat when we move
1192 to OpenSync 0.3x / 0.40, so this is just temporary
1195 - added SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device" to example udev rules, in order
1196 to avoid running bcharge for each endpoint that is
1197 added by udev, when first plugged in. Running bcharge
1198 back-to-back multiple times can crash some
1202 - fixed ID mapping bug in the case of a non-numeric UID
1203 from syncing external -> Barry, and then the
1204 new Barry ID would look like a new change
1205 when syncing back from Barry -> external.
1206 - added support for slow sync
1207 - added clear() to idmap class
1208 - added vformat attr parameter extraction class
1209 - added more trace logging during vformat/Barry conversions
1210 - added Notification time support
1211 - handled "all day" vformat special case, when DTEND
1212 does not exist in a vformat data block
1213 - changed the min1900_t time conversion functions to handle
1214 the 0xffffffff special case, when notifications
1215 are turned off on a calendar event (src/time.cc)
1216 - also made the calendar data dump output clearer for
1217 disabled timestamps, and added debug output
1218 for the raw min1900 value, in case there are more
1219 special cases in the future
1221 - fixed null pointer access in opensync's HasMultipleVEvents()
1223 - upper management directive: revert all OpenSync 0.3x changes
1224 and proceed with OpenSync 0.22. Reverting the
1225 opensync-plugin/src tree to Barry 0.7 status.
1227 - reorganized exception and trace code in opensync plugin
1228 - added XmlToCalendar() function, based on unfinished opensync
1229 library API that is not yet finished... will be
1230 committed to opensync svn tree when complete
1231 - added OSyncXMLField logger to plugin trace class
1233 - applied email MessageRecord patch from Brian Edginton (thanks!)
1234 - updated Message::Dump() to output more valid mbox data...
1235 the goal is to be able to do:
1236 btool -d "Messages" > email.mbox
1238 - changed some TODO's to FIXME's to keep it grep-consistent
1239 - applied Folder support patch from Brian Edginton
1240 - fixed pedantic compile warnings, and changed order in src/Makefile.am
1241 - removed unneeded cast in src/r_folder.cc
1243 - minor adjustment to ctags building in buildgen.sh
1244 - applied patch from Brian Edginton for better boost detection
1246 - added boost usage message to btool -h output
1248 - more porting of OpenSync module to 0.30
1249 - added ctags build for opensync source tree to buildgen.sh
1251 - changed PKG_CONFIG_PATH setting in rpm script, so that systems
1252 like SuSE that have an extensive PKG_CONFIG_PATH
1253 in general use will not break on build
1254 - added PKG_CONFIG_PATH to debian script too, just in case :-)
1255 - added debian/changelog to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1256 - added comment to rpm/barry.spec regarding SuSE RPM builds
1258 - applied patch from Niels de Vos fixing debian package build
1260 - applied Brian Edginton's Saved Email Messages patch
1261 - updated r_saved_messages.cc comment to match header
1262 - added GetRecType()/GetUniqueId() to r_saved_messages.h, since
1263 SetIds() is already there
1264 - removed Address version of operator<<() from message related headers
1265 and moved into record.h
1266 - added std::hex to message related dumps, and changed output to
1268 - updated doc/CodingStyle.txt to cover switch() statements
1269 - opensync compiles again, with 0.30! (not functional yet)
1270 - moving closer to more modular and reusable plugin functions
1271 - updated release checklist for opensync version number
1273 - added doc/CodingStyle.txt... preliminary version
1275 - applied Brian Edginton's PIN message patch
1276 - changes to PIN message patch:
1277 - fixed missing backslash in src/Makefile.am
1278 - fixed tab alignment throughout
1279 - removed typedef from Address struct
1280 - added clear() to Address... might as well, if it it is
1281 going to be a standalone type
1282 - fixed missing comma in PINMessageFieldLinks table
1283 - changed MessageRecordId in PINMessage to load from a new
1284 uint32_t field in CommonField, instead of piggy
1285 backing on a field for other use
1286 - did some testing and found that PINMessage's MessageRecordId
1287 is the same as the RecordId given through the SetIds()
1288 API... but these Id's are duplicated in the protocol...
1289 RecordId is stored in the protocol header, while
1290 MessageRecordId is stored in the record it self as
1291 a common field... added RecType and RecordId to
1292 PIN Message so that we store both of these
1295 - added item to gui/TODO
1296 - applied Brian Edginton's s11n-boost.h patch
1298 - renamed template values to more consistent naming scheme
1299 - applied memos and tasks patch from Brian Edginton, slightly
1300 modified to split into the new separate files system
1301 - changes to memos and tasks classes:
1302 - reformatted the code to match coding style
1304 - added copyright notice
1305 - changed class to singular (Memo, not Memos)
1306 - placed in Barry namespace
1307 - added #ifdef header protectors
1308 - added new files to Makefile.am
1309 - added new r_*.h headers to record.h
1310 - added support for Memos and Tasks to tools/btool.cc, based on
1311 Brian Edginton's patch
1312 (currently commented out, for Boost library reasons):
1313 - added doc/CommitPolicy.txt
1316 - added ctags generation to buildgen.sh
1317 - applied record.{h,cc} fix patch from Brian Edginton
1321 - fixed broken formatting in above patch
1322 - refactored record parser classes into separate files for each
1323 - changed the ConvertHtoB<> template to inline, as it caused
1324 linker errors with the new file layout
1326 - fixed bug in Debian packaging that put util commands in
1327 /bin and /sbin instead of /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
1328 - commited byteswap.h replacement code from gm2net
1330 - removed unneeded debug messages on stdout
1331 - changed the default for debug output to "off"
1332 and added a command line option to turn
1333 it on if necessary (--debug-output)
1334 - command line option --help now also works
1335 - fixed bug in Calendar class where it didn't initialize
1336 RecType properly... and cleaned up other RecType
1337 code to use the GetDefaultRecType() functions,
1338 localizing the constants in one place
1340 - applied patches from Brian Edginton, parsing more
1341 fields in Contact and Calendar records
1342 - added Brian Edginton to AUTHORS
1343 - reformatted record.{h,cc} to match the rest of the code,
1344 removed commented out code, and removed mention of
1345 Outlook from the comments.
1346 - updated udev/10-blackberry.rules.Debian for Debian Etch
1347 - updated debian/rules to use new udev rules file
1348 - removed debian/postinst, as stable versions of Debian now
1349 have a recent udev, and don't need the special handling
1350 - updated Debian build scripts to build separate packages:
1355 - added menu support to Debian barrybackup-gui package
1356 - made the buttons bigger in the backup GUI, as they were too
1357 small on Debian Etch
1359 - more progress in porting to opensync 0.30, heavily
1360 based on the example plugin in the opensync
1361 svn tree... this is a work in progress, and so far
1365 - partial porting to opensync 0.30 (in progress!)
1366 - fixed bug in sync_done where it reported context error
1367 and then success afterward
1368 - checking in new INSTALL files based on Etch's autoconf run
1369 - added item to gui's todo list
1370 - bumped version numbers to 0.8 in:
1374 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1378 Release: version 0.7 - 2007/05/02
1379 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1381 - added rpm building to maintainer/release scripts
1382 - added "HEAD" feature to tarball creation script, for easier testing
1383 - updated maintainer/README
1384 - updated maintainer/release.sh to use new HEAD feature too
1386 - added pppob to rpm barry.spec
1387 - bumped release number in barry.spec
1390 - fixed size check bugs (strlen() == 0 when empty)
1391 - finished refactoring calendar conversion routines
1392 - started timezone parsing, but this may go away
1393 if we use opensync 0.30's time functions and
1395 - added development note to README
1397 - updated README and opensync-plugin/README with more current
1400 - refactored some calendar conversion routines
1401 - added Barry->vCalendar conversion for recurring appointments
1404 - removed some unneeded trace logs
1405 - fixed VEventConverter constructor bug, with uninitialized
1407 - eased up the requirement that every calendar event
1408 must have a summary... defaults to "<blank subject>"
1410 - added more VCALENDAR fields to match Barry::Calendar record
1411 - fixed case sensitive compares in vformat.c
1413 - opensync module work:
1414 - added id map class to map string uid's from OpenSync to
1415 numeric ID's from the Blackberry
1416 - fixed bug in CommitChange() where it was still using
1417 a hard coded calendar record state table
1418 - added lots of logging throughout
1419 - fixed bug where newly added records didn't use the
1420 change object's uid, but created a new ID,
1421 causing another sync on the next run
1422 i.e. (CommitData_t was missing an argument)
1423 - fixed bug where uninitialized notification time was
1424 written to the Blackberry
1425 - more opensync module work:
1426 - refactored the environment class into another subclass
1427 called DatabaseSyncState, and moved some stand-
1428 alone functions from barry_sync.cc into
1429 the environment classes
1430 - added a tagged constructor to the trace class
1431 - fixed idmap::Load() to clear map before loading
1433 - renamed barry-config to barry-sync, the default configuration
1434 file for the opensync module... and filled it with
1435 a sample configuration
1436 - added code to update the calendar cache, and write it to disk
1437 on success (opensync module)
1438 - added code to clear dirty flags in the device (opensync module)
1439 - allowed comments in the config file
1440 - added vformat.c from libopensync 0.22, since the vformat
1441 routines are not available from the plugin side
1444 - added -d switch to bcharge to switch back from 0001 to 0004 mode,
1445 changed the auto-detection logic to ignore iProduct and
1446 only use idProduct, and updated man page
1447 - updated breset to recognize the Pearl in 00004 mode as well
1448 - changed src/probe.cc logic to assume that the second endpoint
1449 pair is the one needed for database communication, instead
1450 of doing a reverse search from the end... newer Pearls
1451 in Dual mode seem to have at least 3 or 4 endpoint pairs,
1452 and the old search didn't always work
1453 - applied sourceforge patch #1696884 from Peter Silva, updating
1454 the Debian build for Etch, and including all files in one deb
1455 - added Peter Silva to AUTHORS file
1456 - uncommented the "make distclean" in debian/rules, and removed
1457 the reliance on /tmp when installing 99-barry-perms.rules
1458 - applied bb_task_format.txt patch from Peter Silva
1459 - fixed each misspelling of "recurrance" to "recurrence"
1460 - tweaked src/probe.cc again for paranoia's sake... start at
1461 offset 1 if more than 1 endpoint pair, otherwise start
1463 - split up opensync module into multiple source files, and started
1464 using the opensync vformat routines for parsing and building
1465 the vevent20 data (experimental)
1467 - more incremental work on the opensync plugin, adding ADDED
1468 and MODIFIED functionality... (experimental!)
1470 - added code to dump extra descriptors during device discovery,
1472 - bumped opensync version number in configure.ac, and made
1473 the configure scripts more consistent with the rest
1475 - fixed printf-format size bug in opensync module
1477 - applied patch from Niels de Vos, fixing deb udev rules for Pearl
1479 - fixed extra space bug in LDIF output (added space when creating
1480 FullName, even if there was no last name)
1481 - fixed Address Book record parsing in Contact class... the
1482 Blackberry database uses field id 0x20 for both the
1483 first and last names, and if only a last name exists,
1484 the first name will be empty. Fixed parser to handle
1485 this special case, without relying on string length.
1486 Thanks to Troy Engel for reporting above two LDIF bugs.
1487 - added a few more constants to bcharge.cc
1488 - renamed opensync's configure.in to configure.ac
1490 - fixed bcharge to avoid endless reset loop... oops
1492 - reorganized bcharge.cc to make it possible to switch between
1493 Pearl modes 0004 and 0001
1494 - added flag to BadPassword exception class, to signal whether
1495 the library considers the device "out of retries" or not
1496 - updated socket.cc for new BadPassword exception
1497 - added special case to Controller class destructor to reset the
1498 device if being destroyed in a half-open state... this is
1499 a temporary fix until we understand how to handle
1500 the "already open" message we get when opening the Desktop
1502 - added password prompt dialog to the backup GUI
1503 - fixed possible memory leak in GUI's DeviceInterface::Connect()
1505 - committed Troy Engel's bbrules_mass_symlinks.patch, fixing
1506 udev rules for the Pearl
1507 - updated 10-blackberry.rules.Debian to match 10-blackberry.rules's
1509 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to generate all required
1510 RPM's... Thank you! Notes in the README taken from
1511 the sourceforge tracker entry containing the patch.
1512 - added libusb lib flags to tools/ and examples/ makefiles,
1513 and tweaked configure.ac with a better default,
1514 to build cleanly on RHEL 4
1515 - modified rpm/barry.spec:
1516 - does not create doc-only barry base package anymore
1517 - fixed "barry-backup" typo
1518 - removed the patch step, as version 0.7 shouldn't need it
1519 - added license file to each package
1520 - commented out console perms scripts, pending mailing list
1523 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to fix RHEL4 compile issues
1524 - fixed 80 column wrapping error in barry.spec, thanks to Troy Engel
1526 - applied Troy Engel's udev permissions patch for Redhat/Fedora
1527 systems, which automatically set the ownership of a
1528 newly plugged in device to the currently logged in console
1530 - added udev/README to document what all those files are for...
1531 part of the text comes from the sourceforge comment
1532 on the above udev permissions patch from Troy Engel
1533 - uncommented the console perms scripts for rpm/barry.spec
1534 - added libglademm-2.4 to gui/README's dependency list
1535 - made usbwrap.* calls more threadsafe
1536 - added Usb::Timeout exception for timeout errors
1537 - added preliminary UsbSerData support to library for GPRS modem
1538 functionality, using Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry's serdata.c
1540 - added overloaded Socket::Send() for sending without receiving
1541 - added preliminary pppob command line tool
1547 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1550 - build system tweaks for opensync-plugin, and added a buildgen.sh
1552 - added better debug messages in probe.cc and usbwrap.cc's
1553 device discovery code
1554 - changed error handling for null interface->altsetting pointers
1555 when doing device discovery in usbwrap.cc. Seems that
1556 some devices report a higher number in bNumInterfaces
1557 than are really available... in this case, let's
1558 just ignore the missing data and assume success
1559 - applied udev script patch #1663986 from Troy Engel
1560 - applied barry-bcharge.spec patch #1672178 from Troy Engel
1561 - ReleaseChecklist update
1562 - added rpm/README based on Troy Engel's patch notes
1563 - updated new barry-bcharge.spec for version 0.7, removing patch
1566 Release: version 0.6 - 2007/02/28
1567 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1569 - fixed size checks for device database records larger than 64K
1570 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
1571 - added initial release maintainer scripts
1572 - fixed odd backup success message in GUI when doing a backup with
1573 no databases selected in configuration
1574 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
1575 - added udev permissions file patch from Michael Brown
1576 - added Michael Brown to AUTHORS
1577 - updated README, gui/README, and doc/USB-capture.txt
1578 - added -o command line switch to bcharge.cc, and updated man page
1580 - changed library behaviour so it only turns on libusb debug output
1581 if in data dump mode. In btool, -v controls this output.
1582 - minor stream formatting fix in btool
1583 - added OpenSSL dependency to build for password hash support
1584 - made debug dout() output conditional on Init() flag... In btool,
1585 -v now controls this as well
1586 - reverse engineered more of the initial probe packets, and
1587 implemented probing in struct based code... changes include:
1588 - added support for "attribute fetch" packets, used at
1589 the beginning of USB conversations
1590 - defined object/attribute id codes for the PIN number
1591 - made Protocol::SocketCommand more robust, and implemented
1592 its sequence number behaviour
1593 - moved ModeSelectCommand into SocketCommand, as it is a
1594 socket 0 level command
1595 - added initial protocol struct: PasswordChallenge
1596 - renamed Barry::Packet to DBPacket
1597 - added ZeroPacket for socket 0 packet creation and analysis
1598 - Barry::Packet is now the base class for the above
1599 - implemented socket 0 behaviour in socket.cc
1600 - changed return values for Send/Receive/Packet/NextRecord
1601 members in the Socket class from bool to void, as they
1602 don't generate errors themselves, but only can
1603 have an error if Usb::Device throws an exception.
1604 Cleaned up all code that called these members as well.
1605 - removed "last status" from Socket class as it was unused
1606 - updated probe.cc to use new socket 0 implementation
1607 - removed two of the hard coded packet handshakes in favour
1609 - updated controller.cc:
1610 - uses new socket 0 implementation
1611 - removed "flag" hack when opening sockets and
1612 selecting modes, as it should use the
1613 socket 0 sequence number
1614 - added initial, incomplete prototype header for the C API
1615 - updated some .cvsignore files
1617 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt, adding rpm spec file
1618 - added the following to ZeroPacket:
1623 - moved Command() to base Packet class
1624 - added comments to protostructs.h and size constants for the
1625 new PasswordChallenge struct
1626 - added password support to Socket and Controller classes
1627 Thanks to Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry for the openssl
1628 password hashing logic.
1629 - updated btool to use new password support, and updated its man page
1631 - updated Doxygen input files and version, and added to ReleaseChecklist
1632 - fixed btool PIN output for LDIF mode, now commented in output
1633 - major LDIF overhaul:
1634 - split LDIF specific code out of the record class and
1636 - fixed "full name" behaviour that added an extra space
1637 in dn attributes, as reported by Troy Engel
1638 - added support for mapping of LDIF attributes to Barry
1640 - fixed base64 handling, so attributes are only so encoded
1642 - fixed base64 attribute reading inconsistency... some
1643 notes fields were missed in old version if not
1645 - added support for specifying alternate attribute for
1646 constructing a FQDN, instead of just "cn"
1647 - updated btool and upldif to use new features
1648 - large update to btool manpage
1649 - fixed initialization bug in Contact constructor (missed RecType)
1651 - added ktrans.cc to make reading of kernel usbfs_snoop logs easier
1652 - removed commented code from translate.cc
1653 - added Pearl handshake support to bcharge.cc, which resets the
1654 Pearl so that the vendor specific 0xFF class exists.
1655 This should allow use of btool on the Pearl.
1656 - added Data::AppendHexString to data.cc
1657 - added better probing support for the Pearl, so it detects the
1658 Product ID 0x0004 mode, and does a search for class 0xFF
1659 instead of hardcoding it.
1661 - applied README patch from Ian Darwin
1662 - minor tweaks to README
1663 - added missing errno.h header in src/usbwrap.cc for AMD64
1664 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting the bug.
1665 - tightened up size checks in Data::ReleaseBuffer()
1666 - stable libusb *does* return the actual length of the USB packet...
1667 fixed this in usbwrap.cc to set the actual size of read data,
1668 and removed the size hacks elsewhere in the code:
1669 probe.cc, protocol.cc, socket.cc, usbwrap.cc
1671 - added proper return codes for error conditions in btool.cc
1672 - clarified some stream output code in the library, for hex/dec numbers
1673 - removed old, non-working connect.cc test program
1674 - added iomanip to debug.h
1675 - changed usbwrap to call libusb again if EINTR and EAGAIN
1676 This should fix one of the OpenBSD issues
1679 - fixed bug in barrybackup GUI that didn't create the target path
1680 if the user didn't do Edit | Config first.
1681 Thanks to Ian Darwin for reporting the bug.
1682 - applied gui/src/ConfigFile.cc header fix patch for OpenBSD
1685 - added initial btool.1 man page from Ian Darwin
1686 - updated man/Makefile.am for new btool.1
1688 - applied btool -h help clarification patch from Ian Darwin
1690 - reworked exception hierarchy, so applications can handle all
1691 Barry related exceptions, including Usb errors, with
1692 one base class: Barry::Error
1693 - fixed all the ripple changes this caused throughout the codebase
1694 - added BadPassword exception
1700 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1701 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1702 - added usb-level breset.cc command line tool
1703 - fixed bug in gui/src/tarfile.* for systems where
1704 sizeof(int) != sizeof(void*)
1705 - TarFile class now uses a plugin style for the compression
1706 operations, to allow for threadsafe versions if needed
1708 - also fixed leaked file handle bug in open_compressed()
1709 - Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this for 64bit systems
1710 - minor signed comparison fixes in the library
1711 - added better protocol data dumping code in probe.cc
1712 - added Usb::Device::BulkDrain(), to prevent Barry from hanging
1713 due to pending reads
1715 Release: version 0.5 - 2007/01/26
1716 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1718 - added missing errno.h header to gui/src/util.cc
1719 - lots more endian fixes after testing on iMac
1720 - iostream output size fixes
1721 - added option to btool to reset the device via software
1722 - beefed up exception handling in barrybackup
1723 - checked in opensync work-in-progress: trace logging, pointer bugfix
1724 this is still experimental
1725 - added aboutdialog.* files from gtkmm24 2.10.6, so we have a dialog
1726 class for systems running older versions of gtkmm, like
1728 - uncommented the about box menu handler
1729 - added "cleanall" option to root buildgen.sh script
1730 - update ReleaseChecklist.txt
1731 - removed CVS auto-history strings from aboutdialog.*
1733 - found a link between the unknown field in tagged protocol headers
1734 and the unknown field in RecordStateTable entries. This
1735 field matters when uploading certain databases, such as
1736 Browser Options. It is unknown what this field really
1737 means, but we're calling it RecType. Updated the API
1738 to use this in all parser objects and builder objects
1739 and record objects that use it.
1740 - changed some uses of uint64_t to uint32_t, in Contact and
1741 Calendar record objects... unique IDs only seem to be
1743 - added new static function to record classes: GetDefaultRecType()
1744 This returns the default rectype that should work
1745 for that record. Ideally this should be retrieved from
1746 the device, but in the case where a database has no
1747 records, this info would be good to know.
1748 - updated convenience template function Controller::AddRecordByType()
1749 to use GetDefaultRecType()
1750 - documented the recurrence data and how to use it in Calendar objects
1751 - added data debug output for incoming USB packets in the
1752 socket class... when we ported to the stable libusb
1753 we lost some of the verbose output... this should get it
1754 back. (In the official release, you need to uncomment
1755 ddout() in debug.h for the full blast of debug output).
1756 - backup GUI updates:
1757 - changed error_done signal into a pure error signal,
1758 and changed the logic so the restore continues
1759 even if there was a protocol error on one database
1760 - changed status bar messages to show what's happening
1761 i.e. Backup or Restore
1762 - default to not restore the "Handheld Agent" database as
1763 it appears to be read-only on the device
1764 - added temporary Restore & Backup mode for debugging
1765 - added extra hyphen to backup files to show date/time better
1766 - updated GUI to save and restore the new RecType field
1767 supported now by the library
1769 - added future considerations to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1770 - applied big endian patch from Jonathan Hudson
1772 - removed endian.h include from barry.h, since applications
1773 using the library should not care about endianness
1774 - hard coded the path to config.h in endian.h
1775 so that endian.h never makes it into the final
1777 - removed DEFAULT_INCLUDES setting from src/Makefile.am
1779 - removed config.h dependency in btool.cc and used library
1780 Version call instead
1781 - added big/little endian text to the Barry::Version call
1783 - fixed install location of bcharge when building with ./configure;
1784 now goes to sbin/ for both source compile and binary packages
1785 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this bug.
1787 - added smarter timeout values to controller, and allowed
1788 timeout overrides in the packet, socket, and usbwrap code...
1789 extra timeouts are needed for erasing databases for
1791 - added an explicit DataDumpParser class to btool.cc, as the
1792 library doesn't always have extreme verbose debugging on...
1793 this makes sure anyone can always get raw database packets
1794 through btool, for development
1795 - added thread callback signals for error finishes and erase_db
1796 operations, so the GUI is updated properly
1797 - more GUI cleanups (status bar updates, etc)
1798 - finished implementation of GUI restore
1799 - fixed gtkmm/glibmm exception handling when the exceptions
1800 occur in sigc signal handlers... in that case,
1801 exceptions need to be handled with
1802 Glib::add_exception_handler()
1803 - added filename-only reading support to TarFile class
1804 - added pending gui/TODO items
1806 - backup GUI now properly shows progress
1807 - the buttons become insensitive when backup is busy
1808 - refactored directory check code, and added mkdir check
1809 when to the backup setup (so the directory exists
1810 when we try to write to it)
1811 - updated code to use Barry::Data in new namespace
1813 - moved Data class into Barry namespace

1824 backups only at this point
1826 - added doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1827 - added version API, returning version number and string
1828 - added Troy Engel to AUTHORS
1829 - added special case to bcharge.cc for the Blackberry Pearl,
1830 which doesn't reset itself after the charge handshake
1831 Thanks to Troy Engel for testing.
1833 - added pkg-config support for the library (libbarry-0.pc.in)
1834 - fixed compile error on g++ 3.3 systems (missing stdint.h
1836 - fixed protocol hang at end of Controller operation... in
1837 controller destructor, it was deleting the USB interface
1838 before closing the socket at the BlackBerry level, thereby
1839 leaving the device in Desktop mode
1841 - support the newer udev packages on Ubuntu, which need slightly
1843 - modified bcharge.cc to search for Pearl devices too.
1845 - added Pearl product ID to probe code, but likely not functional
1846 yet until we find someone able to get a USB capture for us
1848 - version bump in configure.ac and src/Makefile.am
1850 Release: version 0.4 - 2006/12/29
1851 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1853 - added bcharge.cc to the tools/ directory (whoohoo!)
1854 - added initial release version of rpm/barry.spec (aka bcharge.spec)
1855 This begins the barry binary release, currently only
1856 including the bcharge utility, but possibly more in
1857 the future. Future binary packages will likely include
1858 libbarry, libbarry-devel, etc, which barry will then
1860 - added udev rule script for BlackBerry devices
1861 - added man/ directory and bcharge.1 manpage
1862 - added debian/ directory for building deb packages, with initial
1864 - added rpm/make-rpm-tarball.sh for building RPMs

1866 a future Debian install
1867 - added more cleaning to buildgen.sh
1868 - added new udev rule file for Debian stable
1869 - hardcoded g++ to 3.3 in debian/rules as I have multiple versions
1870 on my system and need to compile releases with stable
1872 - ported Barry to use the stable branch of libusb
1873 NOTE: no longer depends on the devel libusb tarball!
1874 Just use your distro's libusb packages.

1891 - moved btool.cc, translate.cc, and upldif.cc out of src/ and
1892 into their own tools/ subdirectory
1893 - added NEWS file to make autotools happy
1894 - added a "clean" option to the buildgen.sh script... maintainer's
1896 - reworked autoconf and automake files, to support
1897 barry as a library, to move the programs into their
1898 own tools directory, and support a proper installation
1899 - fixed headers in parser.h, btool.cc, and upldif.cc to work
1900 properly when installed standalone
1901 - added tools/Makefile.plain for testing compiling against
1902 installed barry library
1903 - added commentary on version number system

1940 GetIndex() and MakeNewRecordId()
1941 - changed btool so that the -d command modifiers can be
1942 specified multiple times to work with multiple records
1944 - added Calendar sync code to the opensync module (not complete)
1945 - cleaned up exception handling in the opensync module, making
1946 more use of the base exception to make sure no
1947 exceptions leak into the C library code
1949 Release: version 0.0.2 - 2006/10/12
1950 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1952 - fixed casting error in opensync module
1953 - minor updates to documentation to prepare for release
1955 - added stdint.h to parser.h for uint32_t. Thanks Ron Gage for
1958 - large refactoring of the packet parsing and building code,
1959 splitting the code into 3 groups:
1960 - record: handles record specific parsing and building...
1961 this is mostly subfields with CommonField structs
1962 as their headers, but sometimes has a specific
1963 header of its own, in the case of email
1964 Note: email's header is as yet undecoded.
1965 Record does not know the details of the packet
1966 formats, only the formats of its own record data.
1967 - packet: handles building of complete command packets
1968 and handles parsing of commonly used header values,
1969 providing an API for it... packet does not know
1970 the record format details, but does know the
1971 details of each Database Operation (protocol.h)
1973 So far, it seems that there is a real separation
1974 of operation formats and record formats, with the
1975 record formats being the same even with different
1976 database operation codes (GET_RECORDS /
1977 OLD_GET_RECORDS), which was not confirmed before.
1978 See the header size of the email record after
1980 - controller: handles device state, and the management of
1981 sockets, commands, and checking for response values.
1982 The Controller object does not know the format
1983 of either the record or the packet it is sending,
1984 but does know the protocol handshake logic used
1985 to talk to the device.
1986 - implemented SetRecord (SET_RECORD_BY_INDEX)... syncing, here
1988 - spelling correction in opensync-plugin/AUTHORS
1990 - added sample hotplug scripts
1991 - added .cvsignore files for doxygen and opensync directories
1992 - added src/endian.h... still need to add configure support to
1993 handle non-little-endian machines
1994 - added exception handler in opensync plugin commit_change()
1995 - removed the device reset code in probe.cc, as resetting a device
1996 can renumber the devices in /proc on kernel 2.4.x,
1997 and cause a failure to reach the device...
1998 FIXME - this should be changed someday to reset if probing
1999 fails, and restart the probe on reset, as sometimes
2000 the blackberry devices respond differently when not reset
2001 Ideally, the probe protocol should be properly reverse
2003 - added support for retrieving record state table, which is needed
2005 - added support for retrieving, deleting, and clearing the dirty
2006 flags of individual blackberry device records

2013 - removed slow sync functions for now
2015 - added quick "install" makefile target, to src/install by default
2016 - added static library target... this is temporary until autoconf
2017 stuff is added properly... needed for the opensync plugin
2018 - documented in comments that Barry::BError is intended to be
2019 the base classes for all exceptions
2020 - added first round of implementation of an opensync plugin, based
2021 on the example plugin code from the opensync sources

2035 - old and new unique ID (UID)
2037 - old and new description
2039 - bes domain / domain
2040 - date change in legal.txt
2041 - added initial parsing of ServiceBook field 0x09, and calling it
2042 ServiceBookConfig for now, for lack of a better name
2043 - added parsing for ServiceBook field 0x02 on 72xx Blackberries...
2044 seems to be a name or description, but doesn't appear
2045 in the device's own GUI... called "Hidden Name" for now
2047 - added ServiceBook record class and parser code, based on some
2048 of Ron Gage's reverse engineering... code is by Chris Frey
2049 - added AUTHORS file
2050 - fixed the libusb set_configuration/claim_interface order
2051 bug in controller.{h,cc}... already fixed in probe,
2052 but not controller. Thanks Ron Gage for finding this.

2101 - added return_code field to DBAccess struct, for error checking
2102 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
2103 throw exception in controller.cc
2104 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
2105 contact data to the device, it may be important to write
2106 group link items last, since they reference other contacts...
2107 This needs to be tested, and if not required, removed.
2108 - added GROUP_FLAG field code to Contact parser class
2109 - fixed offset bug in Contact and Calendar Build() functions
2110 - fixed name bug in Contact::Build(), now output only with data

2127 - minor change in usbwrap.cc to display error codes in decimal
2128 - added SizePacket special case code to Socket::Send()... this is
2129 required when uploaded packet size is a multiple of 0x40,
2130 a special 3 byte size packet is sent
2131 - moved some record class variables to public: so they can be
2133 - fixed variable name but in RecordBuilder template

2153 02a2a3cc?hl=en#5714701b02a2a3cc
2154 - changed headers so that any low level protocol-specific sizes and
2155 structs are completely hidden in the library...
2156 this adds library-only header: protostructs.h
2158 Release: version 0.0.1 - 2005/11/25

2181 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
2182 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
2183 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
2184 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
2185 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
2186 Observed maximum blank count: 1
2187 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
2188 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
2189 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
2190 seem to need more time...)
2191 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
2192 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
2193 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
2194 with Python, if used(?)
2195 - added Message class for Email records
2196 - removed the "Get*" database functions and replaced with
2197 general LoadDatabase() call, which loads any database

2214 a public API function
2215 - moved Controller test code to btool.cc and made tool more
2216 generically useful... can now download any DB by name on
2218 - added mode checks to Controller

2226 - increased USB default timeout to 2 seconds
2227 - fixed formatting bug in Data operator<< output
2228 - cleaned up the protocol packet structs, getting rid of the
2229 confusing param/simple split... param is now the tableCmd
2230 from the Command Table
2231 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
2232 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
2233 the Cassis spec more closely
2234 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing
2235 - fixed Socket::Close() so on error, socket flags are reset.
2236 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
2239 - added Doxyfile to the project
2241 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
2242 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
2243 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent
2245 - added Command Table parsing and protocol support
2246 Blackberry class, and CommandTable record class
2247 - added Database database parsing and protocol support
2248 Blackberry class and DatabaseDatabase record class

2250 - fixed bug in CopyOnWrite mode in Data class, where could allocate
2251 less buffer than data copied
2252 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
2253 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
2254 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
2255 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
2257 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
2258 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
2260 - implemented socket::Close()
2261 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0

2269 - added blackberry.{h,cc} class
2270 - added command line parameters to bbtool.cc
2272 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
2273 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
2274 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
2276 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
2277 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
2278 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
2279 - regular debug output
2280 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
2281 syslog someday, and never turned off)
2282 - raw data dump output
2283 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
2284 numbers into english (limited success)
2285 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
2286 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
2287 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
2288 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
2289 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
2290 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
2291 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
2292 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
2293 for socket 0 operations.
2294 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
2298 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
2299 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
2300 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
2301 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
2303 - syncberry tree started
