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

274 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
278 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
279 - added link to doxygen documentation to www index.php

295 tags in the git repos
297 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
298 - moving items from private todo list to TODO file
299 - removed unused variable from maintainer/git-release-tar.sh
300 - added new maintainer/git-tagged-tar.sh, which puts more data
301 in the git repo, to make it easier for official Debian
303 - moved src/Doxyfile to ./Doxyfile to avoid ".." in the config...
304 the ".." paths confused doxygen and caused it to generate
305 non-relative paths in the documentation.
306 - added umask to maintainer/git-extract.sh, so it works even without
308 - updated maintainer/tar-prepare.sh to match the new Doxyfile
309 - added maintainer/tagged-release.sh, as replacement for the
310 release.sh top level script, when using git
311 - removed CVS-style ID code from contrib/barry-unbind-storage.sh
312 since it made it look like cdfrey wrote it
313 - removed doc/CodingStyle.txt as it is now documented in html
315 - added device name and backup label support to the GUI
316 It is now possible to name devices, instead of just
317 operating by PIN number, and it is possible to now
318 add a text label to the backup tar filenames.
319 - added the device names to the device selection dialog
321 - updated TODO list with i18n opensync bug and general i18n support
322 - added test suite to TODO list
324 - renamed libbarry to libbarry0 in rpm/barry.spec

326 Makes it easier to track variable changes across
328 - added note to NEWS regarding binary package renaming
330 - fixed logic error in breset that displayed error on success
331 Thanks to Richard Esplin for reporting this bug.
332 - applied commit's from Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo's debian git repo
333 git://git.debian.org/git/users/jsogo/barry.git
334 - Add binary dependency of libbarry-dev on libusb-dev
335 - Rename libbarry to libbarry0, per debian policy
336 - Add exact dependency on binary:Version for every
337 -dbg and -dev package
338 - Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.0
340 - clarified barrybackup error message when no records available
341 Added a check so that "no databases selected" and
342 "no records available" are two distinct error messages.
344 - applied ppp chat script patch from Mick Reed
345 - updated RPM and Debian packages with new tmobileus ppp scripts
346 - added T-Mobile US to web documentation
348 - clarified sync docs regarding slow-sync... avoid it if possible
349 - tuned doxygen config, and moved generated files to doc/www/doxygen
350 - added git-release-tar.sh, replacing CVS's make-release-tar.sh
351 Also added doxygen to the release tarball creation, so
352 the source code's doxygen documentation is automatically
353 generated upon release.
354 - split git-release-tar.sh into reusable component scripts
356 - added exception handler for invalid command line options in GUI
357 - fixed barrybackup man page, removing bad -v option
358 - added distro section to AUTHORS
359 - fixed comment and whitespace problems in time.{h,cc}
360 - Converted Birthday from string to Date, and added Anniversary
361 support. Birthday and Anniversary fields now use a new
362 Date struct, and Barry validates the data to some extent.
363 - updated example code and opensync plugin to match
364 - applied Lee Dixon's Location and Description plugin patch,
365 with minor whitespace edits
367 - added Birthday field to examples/addcontact.cc for testing
369 - applied Lee Dixon's Birthday field and opensync patch
370 - fixed coding format issues
373 - fixed bug in m_ipmodem.cc that included a null terminator in
375 - fixed RFC 2426 conformance bug... RFC 2426, 3.1.1 states that FN
376 MUST be present in the vcard object. If there is no name
377 available, then we use the Company name if available. It
378 should be, since the Blackberry requires either name or Company
379 in order to create a new address. If Company is blank too, then
380 we insert "(Blank Name)".
381 - On the flip side of this same bug, it is possible to receive
382 non-conformant vcard data from evolution / opensync
383 that does not include FN. Since the Blackberry
384 doesn't require this information, remove the
385 exception, and only throw an exception if FN
386 or Company are both blank.
387 - REVERT: removed the Company and "(Blank Name)" workarounds,
388 and just produce an invalid vcard if no full name,
389 since with multiple syncing, this will come back
390 to bite us with duplicated Company name data
391 - added sanity check to contact class for blank name and company
392 - added BadData exception class, and documented it
394 - fixed bug in vAttr::GetValue that ignored index for single valued
395 attributes... this should fix the endless loop / memory
396 exhaustion that some people have been seeing
397 Thanks to Lee Dixon for reporting this bug in detail!
398 - added TODO list item for implementing recurring calendar items
404 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
408 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
409 - updated web docs showing how to set the password when using modem
410 - added section to docs on how to test the modem connection
412 Release: version 0.13 - 2008/07/28
413 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

417 - added section for external links to main index page
418 - fixed doc bug about how to install libtar
419 - added O2 Ireland to list of modem scripts
420 - removed ubuntu80464 and fc6 from binary package list
424 - applied barry-unbind-storage.sh script from Niels de Vos...
425 added to contrib for now, in the interests of getting
426 version 0.13 released soon... we can work on integrating
427 this better in 0.14, which hopefully won't take so long :-)
429 - added g++ (>= 4.1) to Debian build dependency list
430 - added support to base library and utilities for multiple email
431 addresses in Contact records
432 - added opensync support for multiple contact email addresses
433 - applied ppp chat scripts for O2 Ireland from Simon Kenyon
435 - integrated O2 Ireland scripts into binary package installs
437 - applied David Mansfield's opensync module password patch (ported
438 manually to latest upcoming 0.13)
440 - added password documentation to sample barry-sync module config
441 - updated web docs with new password sample config
443 - removed old, unused spec file and scripts for bcharge-only release
444 - fixed rpm build instructions in web docs
445 - reduced minimum password retry level from 6 to 3... Reinhold Schoeb
446 reports that his 8800 device only lets him set a password
447 retry range between 3 and 5, instead of the usual 10 that
450 - added "known issues" section to main www doc page
451 - fixed virtual function mis-name bug in btool's null parser
452 - added -i option to brecsum, to include record IDs in the sums
453 - applied Ashley Willis's btool 0.12 null parser patch to CVS, which
454 required some manual porting changes...
455 - removed bool reference argument in GetParser()
457 - applied Ashley Willis's perlbarry package, putting it in the
458 new contrib/ directory
460 - now that btool patch is applied, don't need it in contrib
461 - removed openssl from dependencies documentation, as barry now
462 has its own sha1 code
463 - added libtool to dependencies documentation
464 - rpm/barry.spec file now assumes gui and opensync, with conditional
465 checks depending which system it is being built on...
466 --with gui and --with opensync are no longer needed.
467 - updated release scripts to build RPMs with the new spec file
469 - updated udev rules to recognize devices with the 8004 Product ID
470 - fixed bug in test/buildtest.sh when opensync is not pre-built
471 - fixed more lintian warnings on Ubuntu
472 - fixed tiny subheadings in modem web document
473 - added syncing howto web document
474 - updated TODO list, adding Troubleshooting item, and morphing
475 the modem item into the RPC daemon item
476 - moved old doc/TroubleShooting.txt document to web, and updated
478 - added tip to sync web docs, for using DebugMode on hangs
480 - changed test/buildtest.sh so it is safe to run from outside
481 the directory that contains it
482 - added note to patch webpage regarding testing patches to the
484 - removed mis-configured 'make dist' check from buildtest.sh
485 - added missing 'scoped_lock.h' to src/Makefile.am's non-installed
486 headers, as it is an internal header only
487 - improved buildtest.sh: speed, accuracy
488 - added -j option to make to speed builds
489 - moved cleanall check above 'make dist' as dist doesn't
490 clean up after itself
491 - commented out 'make distcheck' for now, as it doesn't work
492 - added DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS to root Makefile.am, similar to
493 David Everly's patch in tracker # 1973536
494 Thanks David! 'make distcheck' now works, but only in
495 an environment like buildtest.sh creates.
496 Also, buildtest.sh passes all tests now, including distcheck.
498 - removed unused src/controllertmpl.h
499 - added ppp and test directories to Makefile.am EXTRA_DIST
501 - added beginnings of a build system test script
502 - fixed sha1.h so it is installed by src/Makefile.am

514 - added try/catch in IpModem destructor
515 - removed FIXME comment about endian issues
516 - added data size checks to SendPassword()
518 - renamed class variable session_key to match others
519 - added check to skip password if "" is passed in
520 - added the m_filter for ipmodem PPP 0x7e filtering
521 back, since the 8320 w/ rogers seems to need it
524 - added timeout argument to Device::BulkDrain()
525 - added mozilla's sha1 code from git
526 - removed openssl dependency due to license issues
527 Debian and Ubuntu have checks in their lintian tool that
528 check for GPL+OpenSSL linkage. In order to remove any
529 potential obstacles to future inclusion in those distros,
530 the dependency is removed here in favour of the small
531 mozilla implementation which is GPL.
533 - added notes to web documentation for OpenBSD
534 - documentation updates:
535 - changed git patch command to use format-patch
536 - added instructions for building from tarball
537 - added bugs.php and contact.php pages

586 - modified verizon options file to use pppob
587 - split the sample rogers options file into options and chat files
589 - put sequence packet check directly in the SocketZero::RawReceive()
590 function, which now localizes all sequence packet
591 handling and checking, as well as avoids packet
592 order problems when multiple sockets are in use,
593 such as with pppob...
594 FIXME - this localized sequence checking may make all
595 the calls to CheckSequence() obsolete which
596 should probably be cleaned up someday, if so.
597 - reorganized src/socket.cc to match class private/public
598 order (no code change, only move)
599 - added verbose log message to Controller constructors, so it is
600 possible to determine whether a program is using
601 threaded or non-threaded sockets
602 - added -z and -Z command line options to btool to control
603 the non-threaded/threaded behaviour, respectively;
604 and updated the man page
605 - removed debug sleep() calls from pppob
606 - added SIGINT signal handler so pppob shutsdown gracefully when
609 - mention CVS and git on main documentation "how to" list
610 - moved PPP filter logic into its own class
611 - enhanced PPP filter class to support prepending of
612 empty bytes if needed, in order to reduce data
613 copying, and clarified why there is no GetBuffer()
614 - added ProbeResult::HasIpModem() to determine whether
615 IpModem endpoints are available
616 - added pure virtual Modem base class for common
617 modem-oriented API (only Open and Write so far)
618 - Mode::IpModem is now derived from Barry::Modem
619 - experimental implementation for Mode::Serial,
620 which is now derived from Barry::Modem,
622 - pppob now supports IpModem and Serial modes, and logging
623 to file instead of stderr
624 - added man page for pppob
626 - modified the planned version numbering scheme in doc/VersionNotes,
627 so that a 1.0 is possible, with 1.50 as the devel series
629 - continuing to update html documentation in preparation for
632 - removed -fvisibility-inlines-hidden compile options since some
633 distros have old or broken compilers or libraries where
634 the build breaks looking for STL templates (Ubuntu 7.10,
635 I'm looking at you...)
636 - changed brecsum so usage information is displayed automatically
637 if no command line arguments are specified
638 - added opensync-plugin to maintainer test scripts, and added
639 ubuntu710 to the test build sequence
641 - updated doc/TroubleShooting.txt
642 - removed usb_control message check from IpModem endpoint probing
643 in src/probe.cc, since some devices, like the 8700
644 have both RIM_UsbSerData mode and IpModem mode.
645 - fixed serialization code for Calendar record class, in s11n-boost.h
646 - made UnknownField's data member into its own type,
647 so that when building records, it doesn't get processed
648 like a null terminated string... also added more
649 BuildField() helper functions for accuracy
650 - fixed missing fields in the Calendar record build process
651 - added Calendar to list of Builders in tools/btool...
652 it is now possible to run: btool -s "Calendar" -f datafile
653 - added tools/brecsum program, which calculates SHA1 checksums
654 on database records, for testing
655 - added brecsum to debian and rpm builds
656 - added recurrence builder function to Calendar record builder code
657 which completes builder support
658 Checksums from the following commands now match:
659 brecsum -d Calendar > sum1.txt
660 btool -d Calendar -f calendar.dat
661 btool -s Calendar -f calendar.dat
662 brecsum -d Calendar > sum2.txt
663 diff -u <(sort sum1.txt) <(sort sum2.txt)
665 - applied Jason Thomas's ACLOCAL_FLAGS patch to make autoreconf
666 work again... Thanks!
667 - applied Jason Thomas's debian build dependency patch
670 - started documentation overhaul in doc/www, putting the commonly
671 asked questions right on the front page, and making it more
672 goal-oriented, so it is hopefully easier to use
675 - fixed error messages in m_desktop.cc that still referred
678 - major merge of barry-b1-socket-arch-branch into MAIN.
679 The following is the changelog from that branch, which is now MAIN.

695 - also added ProbeResult constructor
696 - merged changes from visibility branch:
697 - GCC visibility support, limiting what symbols are
698 visible in the shared library, libbarry... this makes

805 See: http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility
807 Release: version 0.12 - 2008/03/21
808 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
810 - changed maintainer script to use CVS export instead of checkout,
811 to avoid the CVS directories
812 - added support for building Debian source packages with proper
813 diff.gz and dsc files
814 - fixed find warning in maintainer/make-rpm.sh
815 - added support for Ubuntu binary packages to the maintainer build
818 - renamed all vformat_ and VFormat symbols in opensync plugin's
819 copy of vformat code, so they don't conflict with the
820 real opensync libraries
822 - updated the install.php web page with Paul Dugas's notes on
823 building RPM's from CVS
824 - fixed problem in tools/Makefile.am where bs11nread was included
825 in build, even if --with-boost was not specified
826 on ./configure command line
828 - changed format of Boost serialization file output from btool,
829 so that the database name is stored as the first line
831 - added tools/bs11nread.cc to read Boost serialization file data
833 - minor adjustments to r_message.h and r_timezone.h
834 - updated s11n-boost.h header to match record classes
836 - applied Time Zone parsing patches from Brian Edginton
837 - added Time Zones to list of supported parsers in btool.cc
839 - changed configure.ac to use bzip2 for "make dist".. thanks to
840 Paul Dugas for the tip
842 - committed Chris Burgess's update to the roadmap document
843 - applied Paul Dugas's x86-64 build patch, except the
844 tar.bz2/tar.gz change
845 - updated AUTHORS file
847 - fixed configure.ac's --with-boost option, so that without args,
848 it defaults to using --includedir and --libdir settings,
849 instead of hardcoding /usr/include and /usr/lib... this
850 should allow smarter compiling on 64 bit systems
851 - updated RPM spec file to use new --with-boost behaviour
852 - ahem, fixed configure.ac again... don't use --includedir and
853 --libdir, as those are install targets... oops.
854 Don't add path overrides at all if not specified.
856 - fixed locale issues in src/data.cc
857 - updated copyright statments for 2008
859 - applied wording correction patch to btool from Matt LaPlante
861 - changed hard coded databases names in btool to calls to
862 <recordclass>::GetDBName()
867 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
871 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
874 Release: version 0.11 - 2007/12/01
875 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
877 - fixed null pointer bug in Probe class (bug #1842407)
878 - added pause to maintainer release script
884 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
888 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
890 Release: version 0.10 - 2007/11/30
891 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
893 - added support to the usbwrap Match class to limit its
894 search by busname / devname
895 - added support to the Probe class to limit its search for
896 Blackberry devices to a given bus or device name
897 - added command line options to btool for the above Probe
898 bus/device names, and updated the man page
899 - updated the www docs with regard to the new usb_storage
900 behaviour and the new blacklist files... less
901 concern about berry_charge and usb_storage conflicts
902 - added bidentify tool and accompanying man page
903 - fixed bug in rpm maintenance script that used the wrong
904 spec file for opensuse
906 - added better error checking to breset
907 - commented the sleep() for the 8830
908 - added code to handle the race condition where usb_storage
909 claims the device before bcharge arrives on the scene,
910 by asking the kernel to detach the driver from
911 the Mass Storage interface... this change makes it
912 possible to run bcharge, moving from 0006 to 0004
913 to 0001 and back to 0004, all *while* usb_storage
915 - changed Probe class behaviour so that it will not throw an
916 exception on Device Busy (-EBUSY) but instead
917 log the error in an internal array and keep going.
918 This makes it possible to use btool and barrybackup
919 with two devices plugged in at the same time.
920 BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY NOTE: this changes initializaion
921 behaviour, but in practice, it should only
922 make applications look more capable, not less.
923 - updated btool to show errors logged by Probe
924 - added message to specify which PIN device is being used by btool
925 - added explanatory comments to udev rules files, about why
928 - added ClearHalt() calls to probe and controller classes, just
929 before any communication happens... the 8830 seems
932 - added usbwrap.cc:GetConfiguration()
933 - added code to check whether the configuration is the one
934 we require, before calling SetConfiguration()... and not
935 to call it if unnecessary. This allows us to run
936 at the same time as usb_storage.
937 Thanks to Martin Owens for not letting this issue go. :-)
938 - added sleep to bcharge, before calling usb_reset()... the
939 Blackberry 8830 behaves like a Pearl device in that
940 it has mass storage support, but behaves like a Classic
941 in that it resets itself... the usb_reset() seems
942 to reset it back to 0006. The sleep allows the device
943 to disappear via its own reset, and let usb_reset()
944 fail naturally on these devices.
945 This is not an ideal solution... mainly for testing.
947 - added modprobe/blacklist-berry_charge as per Simon Ruggier's
948 suggestion. Thanks also to Niels de Vos for a similar
950 - fixed udev rules to work on both old and new distros
951 Thanks to Duncan Mak for the bug report.
953 - fixed string comparison to use case insensitive compare in
955 - updated Debian package to include modprobe blacklist file
956 - updated rpm spec file to include modprobe blacklist file
957 - split the maintenance scripts into release and test, so
958 that release package builds can be done faster
960 - opensync plugin fixes:
961 - fixed memory leak in vBase::GetAttr()
962 - added support in vformat parser to parse "blocks"
963 and keep track of the hierarchy when
964 parsing an iCalendar, etc.
965 - added support for searching for attributes only
966 inside certain blocks (i.e. find first
967 DTSTART in VEVENT block, not VTIMEZONE block)
969 - fixed bug in Calendar::Clear, missing the Free / Class
970 member variables, leaving them uninitialized
971 - added examples/addcalendar.cc
972 - added more logging to the opensync plugin, logging the
973 ToBarry conversion results
974 - added code to force struct tm.tm_isdst to -1 before calling
976 - fixed typo in previous fix
978 - renamed ktrans and translate to bktrans and btranslate to avoid
979 file name clashes with libtranslate of Gnome
980 Closes bug #1812410 reported by Troy Engel.
985 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
989 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
990 - fixed missing default config file in the debian package for
992 Closes bug #1812224 reported by Ariel (adonatti).
993 - added debian dbg packages for tracing segfaults
994 - modified maintainer scripts so debug packages would reference
995 source code located in /usr/src/barry-0.9, etc.
997 Release: version 0.9 - 2007/10/12
998 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1000 - adjusted autosuspend disabling code in bcharge, based on new
1001 information on how kernels 2.6.21 / 2.6.22 work.
1002 See bcharge.cc for comments. If device/power/level or
1003 device/power/autosuspend exist, charging should now work
1004 without recompiling the kernel.
1005 - updated website docs with autosuspend info
1007 - large update to the doc/www web pages, moving some of the
1008 information in README files to html format, so that it
1009 is commonly available on the web
1010 - added step in maintenance scripts to automatically build the
1011 .html files in doc/www when making a tarball release
1013 - added libopensync 0.22 version requirement to barry.spec file,
1014 but it doesn't seem to work on OpenSuSE 10.2, where it's
1017 - updated README to mention new tree build configure options
1018 - fixed the configure scripts and makefiles so that when building
1019 with custom CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables,
1020 it doesn't break the full-tree build mode, when
1021 using --enable-gui and/or --enable-opensync-plugin
1022 - added config.h.in~ to buildgen.sh clean target
1023 - converted Debian build scripts to use cdbs
1024 - added opensync plugin binary package for Debian
1025 - added "Getting Started" section to web pages, as well as an
1026 explanatory document for various system requirements
1027 - turned on opensync build in RPM maintainer scripts
1029 - added filename to power/state error message in bcharge.cc
1030 - adjusted maintainer scripts to automatically adjust barry.spec
1031 for opensuse rpm builds
1033 - fixed some of the release build scripts and added support for
1034 automated opensuse 10.2 builds
1035 - fixed build target to i386
1036 - changed scripts to add to PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable instead
1039 - added website docs to doc/www... these are out of date at the
1040 moment, and hopefully by including them here, they
1041 will be updated more frequently
1043 - applied Simon Ruggier's build system patch that allowed a build
1044 of all 3 components from the root directory and fixed the
1045 configure scripts to support external build directories
1046 - reordered clean commands in the buildgen.sh scripts, and removed
1047 the INSTALL files, since they are auto-generated by autoconf
1048 - removed extraneous buildgen.sh calls in maintainer scripts
1049 - added Simon Ruggier to AUTHORS
1050 - added explanatory note to 3 stage test build process in
1053 - fixed Category handling in the Contact record class, to
1054 parse the comma separated string into an array,
1056 Note: this involves a change to the boost serialization
1057 and will affect backward compatibility with
1058 old serialization datafiles
1059 - added Category to examples/addcontact.cc
1060 - added Category support to the opensync plugin
1062 - fixed wrong read/write in btool output (oops)
1063 - added BadSize exception, and changed CheckSize() function
1064 to throw it on error
1065 - changed backup GUI to catch BadSize exceptions on initial
1066 connect, and try a reset if that error occurs, since
1067 that likely means the device didn't shutdown properly
1068 - fixed in opensync plugin:
1069 - some vcard data contains types codes in capital letters,
1070 so added lower case conversion routine
1071 - changed the order of address lines, so that address1
1072 is the street, address2 is the extended address,
1073 and address3 is the PO Box. The Blackberry
1074 doesn't seem to have any PO Box field.
1076 - added -e endpoint override option to btool
1077 - added status message to endpoint override
1079 - added configure check for strnlen, and implementation for
1080 systems that don't have it, or that have it implemented
1081 incorrectly. Went a little paranoid here, since
1082 AC_FUNC_STRNLEN doesn't set a define in config.h,
1083 so I had to do it manually, and check in case autoconf
1084 changes in the future... ugh. See src/strnlen.h for
1086 - added code in probe.cc to fetch the device's description.
1087 The description is now part of the probe results
1088 along with the PIN. Updates to protocol.h, adding
1089 a new attribute definition.
1090 Thanks to Rick Scott for pointing out the code in
1091 XmBlackberry where he implemented this first.
1092 - fixed header dependency in record-internal.h
1093 - updated the "required autoconf" version to 2.61 for root build
1094 - moved nested structs out of the record classes that contain them,
1095 in order to better support SWIG and Python
1097 - changed bcharge to use getopt() for its argument processing
1098 - added options -p and -s to bcharge, to adjust usb suspend
1099 settings automatically where possible
1100 - updated the udev rules to use the new bcharge settings
1101 - updated the bcharge man page with the new arguments
1103 - cleaned up Usb exception handling, moving libusb error code
1104 processing into the Usb::Error exception class.
1105 error.cc is now an empty shell
1106 - added return codes to the Usb::Error exceptions
1107 - removed aboutdialog.{h,cc} from the backup GUI since even
1108 Debian stable now has up-to-date gtkmm libraries
1109 - added more user friendly error message for the "device busy"
1110 case, recommending 'rmmod usb_storage'.
1112 - added better error checking to bcharge.cc
1117 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
1121 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
1122 - removed usb_set_configuration() check from bcharge.cc, since
1123 that may fail under normal operation, in this case
1125 Release: version 0.8 - 2007/08/03
1126 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1128 - moved Interface implementation to usbwrap.cc file
1129 - added dout debugging messages to usbwrap.cc
1130 - clarified unhandled packet error message in socket.cc
1131 - added temporary workaround in opensync-plugin environment's
1132 Reconnect(), for odd message seen on newer Blackberry
1134 - fixing issues with Brian Edginton's MessageRecord patch (2007/06/29)
1135 - fixed missing size check in message oriented ParseHeader()
1136 - fixed endian conversion issues (also found one pre-existing
1137 endian bug in the process)
1138 - moved message timestamp converter code to time.cc
1139 - added Barry version number to opensync plugin name
1140 - changed maintainer scripts and rpm.spec to use bzip2 instead of gzip
1141 - added opensync-plugin to configure script build
1142 - added -S option to btool, to list supported parsers and builders
1143 - slight change to opensync-plugin/buildgen.sh to cleanup config.h.in~
1144 - opensync-plugin/README update
1145 - added opensync-plugin/patches for others who may be building and
1146 testing the plugin with OpenSync 0.22
1147 - added debian package build scripts to maintainer/
1149 - added entry to doc/TroubleShooting.txt
1151 - added doc/TroubleShooting.txt
1154 - fixed bug in vcard.cc that was using the FN field
1155 for the broken-down name instead of N
1156 - added dbId and dbName to DatabaseSyncState
1157 - added Reconnect() functionality to BarryEnvironment class
1158 and moved connect logic out of barry_sync.cc
1159 - changed the batch commit functionality in barry_sync.cc
1160 to single-change-commit. Why? Because opensync
1161 0.22 groups all batch changes into one group
1162 and calls one batch commit function, even if you
1163 registered two. Moving to single change commit
1164 mode removes a chunk of unneccessary code
1165 from the plugin as well, and can in theory
1166 ease memory pressure in the library.
1167 - added FinishSync() to perform actions needed on successful
1169 - disconnect on successful sync completion, and reconnect,
1170 since the device's dirty flags don't seem to
1171 be updated until a disconnect occurs.
1173 - added ReadDataArray() to data.h, using an istream instead of
1175 - added raw data version of BuildField() to record-internal.h
1176 This is so that btool doesn't add extra null terminators
1177 to unknown data, when restoring with option -s
1178 - fixed bugs in r_contact.cc:
1179 - fixed bug that caused a LastName/FirstName swap
1180 if FirstName was empty and you wrote a contact
1181 record into the device.... First/Last Name
1182 fields are position sensitive, and the code
1183 was missing the empty FirstName case on writing
1184 - fixed bug in BuildFields() and Dump() where they
1185 were not updated to handle the new field
1186 table added for the postal address changes
1189 - changed the plugin config file, so it is possible to
1190 turn debug output on/off without recompiling
1191 - moved the standalone Map2Uid() function into
1192 the DatabaseSyncState class, and changed the
1193 code to produce "contact-#" and "calendar-#"
1194 UID strings, instead of just numbers
1195 - changed default PIN to -1, so that if the user doesn't
1196 configure properly, it will fail... this is a
1197 safety measure to avoid syncing with different
1198 devices and corrupting the cache/idmap...
1199 this should be fixed someday, to handle this
1201 On second thought... is this right? Perhaps
1202 it is better to fail if the PIN is not what
1203 is expected, so a user doesn't accidentally
1204 sync the wrong device and lose data.
1205 Actions to take on new PIN:
1206 - force slow_sync, or
1208 - incorporated the new VCardConverter code into the
1209 main barry_sync.cc plugin code
1210 - fixed bug that did not clear the devices dirty flags
1211 in the case where a sync only read data from it,
1213 - changed PIN error message number to hex
1215 - minor wording change in backup GUI prompt: "Backup working..." to
1216 "Backup in progress..."
1217 - renamed Contact class's Title field to JobTitle for clarity
1218 - added record function ParseFieldString(), which properly handles
1219 strings from the device that have multiple null terminators,
1220 and changed the record parsing code to use this new function
1221 - moved FullName() function from ldif.cc to r_contact.cc since it
1222 is generally useful in areas outside of LDIF processing
1223 - refactored postal addresses in the Contact record class into
1224 a new class called PostalAddress
1225 - renamed Address class in record.h to EmailAddress
1226 - moved Contact::GetPostalAddress() to record.cc as part of the
1227 new PostalAddress class and renamed it
1228 PostalAddress::GetLabel()
1230 - refactored vformat helpers into separate base class
1232 - added vCard converter class
1233 - commented out the code that skipped over the adding
1234 of empty attribute values and parameters,
1235 since VCARD depends on some of this behaviour
1236 - movified vformat.c:vformat_find_attribute() to take
1237 an extra nth argument, in order to search
1238 for multiple attributes with the same name...
1239 the way this is coded is a bit inefficient...
1240 but we're moving away from vformat when we move
1241 to OpenSync 0.3x / 0.40, so this is just temporary
1244 - added SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device" to example udev rules, in order
1245 to avoid running bcharge for each endpoint that is
1246 added by udev, when first plugged in. Running bcharge
1247 back-to-back multiple times can crash some
1251 - fixed ID mapping bug in the case of a non-numeric UID
1252 from syncing external -> Barry, and then the
1253 new Barry ID would look like a new change
1254 when syncing back from Barry -> external.
1255 - added support for slow sync
1256 - added clear() to idmap class
1257 - added vformat attr parameter extraction class
1258 - added more trace logging during vformat/Barry conversions
1259 - added Notification time support
1260 - handled "all day" vformat special case, when DTEND
1261 does not exist in a vformat data block
1262 - changed the min1900_t time conversion functions to handle
1263 the 0xffffffff special case, when notifications
1264 are turned off on a calendar event (src/time.cc)
1265 - also made the calendar data dump output clearer for
1266 disabled timestamps, and added debug output
1267 for the raw min1900 value, in case there are more
1268 special cases in the future
1270 - fixed null pointer access in opensync's HasMultipleVEvents()
1272 - upper management directive: revert all OpenSync 0.3x changes
1273 and proceed with OpenSync 0.22. Reverting the
1274 opensync-plugin/src tree to Barry 0.7 status.
1276 - reorganized exception and trace code in opensync plugin
1277 - added XmlToCalendar() function, based on unfinished opensync
1278 library API that is not yet finished... will be
1279 committed to opensync svn tree when complete
1280 - added OSyncXMLField logger to plugin trace class
1282 - applied email MessageRecord patch from Brian Edginton (thanks!)
1283 - updated Message::Dump() to output more valid mbox data...
1284 the goal is to be able to do:
1285 btool -d "Messages" > email.mbox
1287 - changed some TODO's to FIXME's to keep it grep-consistent
1288 - applied Folder support patch from Brian Edginton
1289 - fixed pedantic compile warnings, and changed order in src/Makefile.am
1290 - removed unneeded cast in src/r_folder.cc
1292 - minor adjustment to ctags building in buildgen.sh
1293 - applied patch from Brian Edginton for better boost detection
1295 - added boost usage message to btool -h output
1297 - more porting of OpenSync module to 0.30
1298 - added ctags build for opensync source tree to buildgen.sh
1300 - changed PKG_CONFIG_PATH setting in rpm script, so that systems
1301 like SuSE that have an extensive PKG_CONFIG_PATH
1302 in general use will not break on build
1303 - added PKG_CONFIG_PATH to debian script too, just in case :-)
1304 - added debian/changelog to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1305 - added comment to rpm/barry.spec regarding SuSE RPM builds
1307 - applied patch from Niels de Vos fixing debian package build
1309 - applied Brian Edginton's Saved Email Messages patch
1310 - updated r_saved_messages.cc comment to match header
1311 - added GetRecType()/GetUniqueId() to r_saved_messages.h, since
1312 SetIds() is already there
1313 - removed Address version of operator<<() from message related headers
1314 and moved into record.h
1315 - added std::hex to message related dumps, and changed output to
1317 - updated doc/CodingStyle.txt to cover switch() statements
1318 - opensync compiles again, with 0.30! (not functional yet)
1319 - moving closer to more modular and reusable plugin functions
1320 - updated release checklist for opensync version number
1322 - added doc/CodingStyle.txt... preliminary version
1324 - applied Brian Edginton's PIN message patch
1325 - changes to PIN message patch:
1326 - fixed missing backslash in src/Makefile.am
1327 - fixed tab alignment throughout
1328 - removed typedef from Address struct
1329 - added clear() to Address... might as well, if it it is
1330 going to be a standalone type
1331 - fixed missing comma in PINMessageFieldLinks table
1332 - changed MessageRecordId in PINMessage to load from a new
1333 uint32_t field in CommonField, instead of piggy
1334 backing on a field for other use
1335 - did some testing and found that PINMessage's MessageRecordId
1336 is the same as the RecordId given through the SetIds()
1337 API... but these Id's are duplicated in the protocol...
1338 RecordId is stored in the protocol header, while
1339 MessageRecordId is stored in the record it self as
1340 a common field... added RecType and RecordId to
1341 PIN Message so that we store both of these
1344 - added item to gui/TODO
1345 - applied Brian Edginton's s11n-boost.h patch
1347 - renamed template values to more consistent naming scheme
1348 - applied memos and tasks patch from Brian Edginton, slightly
1349 modified to split into the new separate files system
1350 - changes to memos and tasks classes:
1351 - reformatted the code to match coding style
1353 - added copyright notice
1354 - changed class to singular (Memo, not Memos)
1355 - placed in Barry namespace
1356 - added #ifdef header protectors
1357 - added new files to Makefile.am
1358 - added new r_*.h headers to record.h
1359 - added support for Memos and Tasks to tools/btool.cc, based on
1360 Brian Edginton's patch
1361 (currently commented out, for Boost library reasons):
1362 - added doc/CommitPolicy.txt
1365 - added ctags generation to buildgen.sh
1366 - applied record.{h,cc} fix patch from Brian Edginton
1370 - fixed broken formatting in above patch
1371 - refactored record parser classes into separate files for each
1372 - changed the ConvertHtoB<> template to inline, as it caused
1373 linker errors with the new file layout
1375 - fixed bug in Debian packaging that put util commands in
1376 /bin and /sbin instead of /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
1377 - commited byteswap.h replacement code from gm2net
1379 - removed unneeded debug messages on stdout
1380 - changed the default for debug output to "off"
1381 and added a command line option to turn
1382 it on if necessary (--debug-output)
1383 - command line option --help now also works
1384 - fixed bug in Calendar class where it didn't initialize
1385 RecType properly... and cleaned up other RecType
1386 code to use the GetDefaultRecType() functions,
1387 localizing the constants in one place
1389 - applied patches from Brian Edginton, parsing more
1390 fields in Contact and Calendar records
1391 - added Brian Edginton to AUTHORS
1392 - reformatted record.{h,cc} to match the rest of the code,
1393 removed commented out code, and removed mention of
1394 Outlook from the comments.
1395 - updated udev/10-blackberry.rules.Debian for Debian Etch
1396 - updated debian/rules to use new udev rules file
1397 - removed debian/postinst, as stable versions of Debian now
1398 have a recent udev, and don't need the special handling
1399 - updated Debian build scripts to build separate packages:
1404 - added menu support to Debian barrybackup-gui package
1405 - made the buttons bigger in the backup GUI, as they were too
1406 small on Debian Etch
1408 - more progress in porting to opensync 0.30, heavily
1409 based on the example plugin in the opensync
1410 svn tree... this is a work in progress, and so far
1414 - partial porting to opensync 0.30 (in progress!)
1415 - fixed bug in sync_done where it reported context error
1416 and then success afterward
1417 - checking in new INSTALL files based on Etch's autoconf run
1418 - added item to gui's todo list
1419 - bumped version numbers to 0.8 in:
1423 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1427 Release: version 0.7 - 2007/05/02
1428 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1430 - added rpm building to maintainer/release scripts
1431 - added "HEAD" feature to tarball creation script, for easier testing
1432 - updated maintainer/README
1433 - updated maintainer/release.sh to use new HEAD feature too
1435 - added pppob to rpm barry.spec
1436 - bumped release number in barry.spec
1439 - fixed size check bugs (strlen() == 0 when empty)
1440 - finished refactoring calendar conversion routines
1441 - started timezone parsing, but this may go away
1442 if we use opensync 0.30's time functions and
1444 - added development note to README
1446 - updated README and opensync-plugin/README with more current
1449 - refactored some calendar conversion routines
1450 - added Barry->vCalendar conversion for recurring appointments
1453 - removed some unneeded trace logs
1454 - fixed VEventConverter constructor bug, with uninitialized
1456 - eased up the requirement that every calendar event
1457 must have a summary... defaults to "<blank subject>"
1459 - added more VCALENDAR fields to match Barry::Calendar record
1460 - fixed case sensitive compares in vformat.c
1462 - opensync module work:
1463 - added id map class to map string uid's from OpenSync to
1464 numeric ID's from the Blackberry
1465 - fixed bug in CommitChange() where it was still using
1466 a hard coded calendar record state table
1467 - added lots of logging throughout
1468 - fixed bug where newly added records didn't use the
1469 change object's uid, but created a new ID,
1470 causing another sync on the next run
1471 i.e. (CommitData_t was missing an argument)
1472 - fixed bug where uninitialized notification time was
1473 written to the Blackberry
1474 - more opensync module work:
1475 - refactored the environment class into another subclass
1476 called DatabaseSyncState, and moved some stand-
1477 alone functions from barry_sync.cc into
1478 the environment classes
1479 - added a tagged constructor to the trace class
1480 - fixed idmap::Load() to clear map before loading
1482 - renamed barry-config to barry-sync, the default configuration
1483 file for the opensync module... and filled it with
1484 a sample configuration
1485 - added code to update the calendar cache, and write it to disk
1486 on success (opensync module)
1487 - added code to clear dirty flags in the device (opensync module)
1488 - allowed comments in the config file
1489 - added vformat.c from libopensync 0.22, since the vformat
1490 routines are not available from the plugin side
1493 - added -d switch to bcharge to switch back from 0001 to 0004 mode,
1494 changed the auto-detection logic to ignore iProduct and
1495 only use idProduct, and updated man page
1496 - updated breset to recognize the Pearl in 00004 mode as well
1497 - changed src/probe.cc logic to assume that the second endpoint
1498 pair is the one needed for database communication, instead
1499 of doing a reverse search from the end... newer Pearls
1500 in Dual mode seem to have at least 3 or 4 endpoint pairs,
1501 and the old search didn't always work
1502 - applied sourceforge patch #1696884 from Peter Silva, updating
1503 the Debian build for Etch, and including all files in one deb
1504 - added Peter Silva to AUTHORS file
1505 - uncommented the "make distclean" in debian/rules, and removed
1506 the reliance on /tmp when installing 99-barry-perms.rules
1507 - applied bb_task_format.txt patch from Peter Silva
1508 - fixed each misspelling of "recurrance" to "recurrence"
1509 - tweaked src/probe.cc again for paranoia's sake... start at
1510 offset 1 if more than 1 endpoint pair, otherwise start
1512 - split up opensync module into multiple source files, and started
1513 using the opensync vformat routines for parsing and building
1514 the vevent20 data (experimental)
1516 - more incremental work on the opensync plugin, adding ADDED
1517 and MODIFIED functionality... (experimental!)
1519 - added code to dump extra descriptors during device discovery,
1521 - bumped opensync version number in configure.ac, and made
1522 the configure scripts more consistent with the rest
1524 - fixed printf-format size bug in opensync module
1526 - applied patch from Niels de Vos, fixing deb udev rules for Pearl
1528 - fixed extra space bug in LDIF output (added space when creating
1529 FullName, even if there was no last name)
1530 - fixed Address Book record parsing in Contact class... the
1531 Blackberry database uses field id 0x20 for both the
1532 first and last names, and if only a last name exists,
1533 the first name will be empty. Fixed parser to handle
1534 this special case, without relying on string length.
1535 Thanks to Troy Engel for reporting above two LDIF bugs.
1536 - added a few more constants to bcharge.cc
1537 - renamed opensync's configure.in to configure.ac
1539 - fixed bcharge to avoid endless reset loop... oops
1541 - reorganized bcharge.cc to make it possible to switch between
1542 Pearl modes 0004 and 0001
1543 - added flag to BadPassword exception class, to signal whether
1544 the library considers the device "out of retries" or not
1545 - updated socket.cc for new BadPassword exception
1546 - added special case to Controller class destructor to reset the
1547 device if being destroyed in a half-open state... this is
1548 a temporary fix until we understand how to handle
1549 the "already open" message we get when opening the Desktop
1551 - added password prompt dialog to the backup GUI
1552 - fixed possible memory leak in GUI's DeviceInterface::Connect()
1554 - committed Troy Engel's bbrules_mass_symlinks.patch, fixing
1555 udev rules for the Pearl
1556 - updated 10-blackberry.rules.Debian to match 10-blackberry.rules's
1558 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to generate all required
1559 RPM's... Thank you! Notes in the README taken from
1560 the sourceforge tracker entry containing the patch.
1561 - added libusb lib flags to tools/ and examples/ makefiles,
1562 and tweaked configure.ac with a better default,
1563 to build cleanly on RHEL 4
1564 - modified rpm/barry.spec:
1565 - does not create doc-only barry base package anymore
1566 - fixed "barry-backup" typo
1567 - removed the patch step, as version 0.7 shouldn't need it
1568 - added license file to each package
1569 - commented out console perms scripts, pending mailing list
1572 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to fix RHEL4 compile issues
1573 - fixed 80 column wrapping error in barry.spec, thanks to Troy Engel
1575 - applied Troy Engel's udev permissions patch for Redhat/Fedora
1576 systems, which automatically set the ownership of a
1577 newly plugged in device to the currently logged in console
1579 - added udev/README to document what all those files are for...
1580 part of the text comes from the sourceforge comment
1581 on the above udev permissions patch from Troy Engel
1582 - uncommented the console perms scripts for rpm/barry.spec
1583 - added libglademm-2.4 to gui/README's dependency list
1584 - made usbwrap.* calls more threadsafe
1585 - added Usb::Timeout exception for timeout errors
1586 - added preliminary UsbSerData support to library for GPRS modem
1587 functionality, using Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry's serdata.c
1589 - added overloaded Socket::Send() for sending without receiving
1590 - added preliminary pppob command line tool
1596 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1599 - build system tweaks for opensync-plugin, and added a buildgen.sh
1601 - added better debug messages in probe.cc and usbwrap.cc's
1602 device discovery code
1603 - changed error handling for null interface->altsetting pointers
1604 when doing device discovery in usbwrap.cc. Seems that
1605 some devices report a higher number in bNumInterfaces
1606 than are really available... in this case, let's
1607 just ignore the missing data and assume success
1608 - applied udev script patch #1663986 from Troy Engel
1609 - applied barry-bcharge.spec patch #1672178 from Troy Engel
1610 - ReleaseChecklist update
1611 - added rpm/README based on Troy Engel's patch notes
1612 - updated new barry-bcharge.spec for version 0.7, removing patch
1615 Release: version 0.6 - 2007/02/28
1616 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1618 - fixed size checks for device database records larger than 64K
1619 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
1620 - added initial release maintainer scripts
1621 - fixed odd backup success message in GUI when doing a backup with
1622 no databases selected in configuration
1623 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
1624 - added udev permissions file patch from Michael Brown
1625 - added Michael Brown to AUTHORS
1626 - updated README, gui/README, and doc/USB-capture.txt
1627 - added -o command line switch to bcharge.cc, and updated man page
1629 - changed library behaviour so it only turns on libusb debug output
1630 if in data dump mode. In btool, -v controls this output.
1631 - minor stream formatting fix in btool
1632 - added OpenSSL dependency to build for password hash support
1633 - made debug dout() output conditional on Init() flag... In btool,
1634 -v now controls this as well
1635 - reverse engineered more of the initial probe packets, and
1636 implemented probing in struct based code... changes include:
1637 - added support for "attribute fetch" packets, used at
1638 the beginning of USB conversations
1639 - defined object/attribute id codes for the PIN number
1640 - made Protocol::SocketCommand more robust, and implemented
1641 its sequence number behaviour
1642 - moved ModeSelectCommand into SocketCommand, as it is a
1643 socket 0 level command
1644 - added initial protocol struct: PasswordChallenge
1645 - renamed Barry::Packet to DBPacket
1646 - added ZeroPacket for socket 0 packet creation and analysis
1647 - Barry::Packet is now the base class for the above
1648 - implemented socket 0 behaviour in socket.cc
1649 - changed return values for Send/Receive/Packet/NextRecord
1650 members in the Socket class from bool to void, as they
1651 don't generate errors themselves, but only can
1652 have an error if Usb::Device throws an exception.
1653 Cleaned up all code that called these members as well.
1654 - removed "last status" from Socket class as it was unused
1655 - updated probe.cc to use new socket 0 implementation
1656 - removed two of the hard coded packet handshakes in favour
1658 - updated controller.cc:
1659 - uses new socket 0 implementation
1660 - removed "flag" hack when opening sockets and
1661 selecting modes, as it should use the
1662 socket 0 sequence number
1663 - added initial, incomplete prototype header for the C API
1664 - updated some .cvsignore files
1666 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt, adding rpm spec file
1667 - added the following to ZeroPacket:
1672 - moved Command() to base Packet class
1673 - added comments to protostructs.h and size constants for the
1674 new PasswordChallenge struct
1675 - added password support to Socket and Controller classes
1676 Thanks to Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry for the openssl
1677 password hashing logic.
1678 - updated btool to use new password support, and updated its man page
1680 - updated Doxygen input files and version, and added to ReleaseChecklist
1681 - fixed btool PIN output for LDIF mode, now commented in output
1682 - major LDIF overhaul:
1683 - split LDIF specific code out of the record class and
1685 - fixed "full name" behaviour that added an extra space
1686 in dn attributes, as reported by Troy Engel
1687 - added support for mapping of LDIF attributes to Barry
1689 - fixed base64 handling, so attributes are only so encoded
1691 - fixed base64 attribute reading inconsistency... some
1692 notes fields were missed in old version if not
1694 - added support for specifying alternate attribute for
1695 constructing a FQDN, instead of just "cn"
1696 - updated btool and upldif to use new features
1697 - large update to btool manpage
1698 - fixed initialization bug in Contact constructor (missed RecType)
1700 - added ktrans.cc to make reading of kernel usbfs_snoop logs easier
1701 - removed commented code from translate.cc
1702 - added Pearl handshake support to bcharge.cc, which resets the
1703 Pearl so that the vendor specific 0xFF class exists.
1704 This should allow use of btool on the Pearl.
1705 - added Data::AppendHexString to data.cc
1706 - added better probing support for the Pearl, so it detects the
1707 Product ID 0x0004 mode, and does a search for class 0xFF
1708 instead of hardcoding it.
1710 - applied README patch from Ian Darwin
1711 - minor tweaks to README
1712 - added missing errno.h header in src/usbwrap.cc for AMD64
1713 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting the bug.
1714 - tightened up size checks in Data::ReleaseBuffer()
1715 - stable libusb *does* return the actual length of the USB packet...
1716 fixed this in usbwrap.cc to set the actual size of read data,
1717 and removed the size hacks elsewhere in the code:
1718 probe.cc, protocol.cc, socket.cc, usbwrap.cc
1720 - added proper return codes for error conditions in btool.cc
1721 - clarified some stream output code in the library, for hex/dec numbers
1722 - removed old, non-working connect.cc test program
1723 - added iomanip to debug.h
1724 - changed usbwrap to call libusb again if EINTR and EAGAIN
1725 This should fix one of the OpenBSD issues
1728 - fixed bug in barrybackup GUI that didn't create the target path
1729 if the user didn't do Edit | Config first.
1730 Thanks to Ian Darwin for reporting the bug.
1731 - applied gui/src/ConfigFile.cc header fix patch for OpenBSD
1734 - added initial btool.1 man page from Ian Darwin
1735 - updated man/Makefile.am for new btool.1
1737 - applied btool -h help clarification patch from Ian Darwin
1739 - reworked exception hierarchy, so applications can handle all
1740 Barry related exceptions, including Usb errors, with
1741 one base class: Barry::Error
1742 - fixed all the ripple changes this caused throughout the codebase
1743 - added BadPassword exception
1749 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1750 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1751 - added usb-level breset.cc command line tool
1752 - fixed bug in gui/src/tarfile.* for systems where
1753 sizeof(int) != sizeof(void*)
1754 - TarFile class now uses a plugin style for the compression
1755 operations, to allow for threadsafe versions if needed
1757 - also fixed leaked file handle bug in open_compressed()
1758 - Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this for 64bit systems
1759 - minor signed comparison fixes in the library
1760 - added better protocol data dumping code in probe.cc
1761 - added Usb::Device::BulkDrain(), to prevent Barry from hanging
1762 due to pending reads
1764 Release: version 0.5 - 2007/01/26
1765 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1767 - added missing errno.h header to gui/src/util.cc
1768 - lots more endian fixes after testing on iMac
1769 - iostream output size fixes
1770 - added option to btool to reset the device via software
1771 - beefed up exception handling in barrybackup
1772 - checked in opensync work-in-progress: trace logging, pointer bugfix
1773 this is still experimental
1774 - added aboutdialog.* files from gtkmm24 2.10.6, so we have a dialog
1775 class for systems running older versions of gtkmm, like
1777 - uncommented the about box menu handler
1778 - added "cleanall" option to root buildgen.sh script
1779 - update ReleaseChecklist.txt
1780 - removed CVS auto-history strings from aboutdialog.*
1782 - found a link between the unknown field in tagged protocol headers
1783 and the unknown field in RecordStateTable entries. This
1784 field matters when uploading certain databases, such as
1785 Browser Options. It is unknown what this field really
1786 means, but we're calling it RecType. Updated the API
1787 to use this in all parser objects and builder objects
1788 and record objects that use it.
1789 - changed some uses of uint64_t to uint32_t, in Contact and
1790 Calendar record objects... unique IDs only seem to be
1792 - added new static function to record classes: GetDefaultRecType()
1793 This returns the default rectype that should work
1794 for that record. Ideally this should be retrieved from
1795 the device, but in the case where a database has no
1796 records, this info would be good to know.
1797 - updated convenience template function Controller::AddRecordByType()
1798 to use GetDefaultRecType()
1799 - documented the recurrence data and how to use it in Calendar objects
1800 - added data debug output for incoming USB packets in the
1801 socket class... when we ported to the stable libusb
1802 we lost some of the verbose output... this should get it
1803 back. (In the official release, you need to uncomment
1804 ddout() in debug.h for the full blast of debug output).
1805 - backup GUI updates:
1806 - changed error_done signal into a pure error signal,
1807 and changed the logic so the restore continues
1808 even if there was a protocol error on one database
1809 - changed status bar messages to show what's happening
1810 i.e. Backup or Restore
1811 - default to not restore the "Handheld Agent" database as
1812 it appears to be read-only on the device
1813 - added temporary Restore & Backup mode for debugging
1814 - added extra hyphen to backup files to show date/time better
1815 - updated GUI to save and restore the new RecType field
1816 supported now by the library
1818 - added future considerations to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1819 - applied big endian patch from Jonathan Hudson
1821 - removed endian.h include from barry.h, since applications
1822 using the library should not care about endianness
1823 - hard coded the path to config.h in endian.h
1824 so that endian.h never makes it into the final
1826 - removed DEFAULT_INCLUDES setting from src/Makefile.am
1828 - removed config.h dependency in btool.cc and used library
1829 Version call instead
1830 - added big/little endian text to the Barry::Version call
1832 - fixed install location of bcharge when building with ./configure;
1833 now goes to sbin/ for both source compile and binary packages
1834 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this bug.
1836 - added smarter timeout values to controller, and allowed
1837 timeout overrides in the packet, socket, and usbwrap code...
1838 extra timeouts are needed for erasing databases for
1840 - added an explicit DataDumpParser class to btool.cc, as the
1841 library doesn't always have extreme verbose debugging on...
1842 this makes sure anyone can always get raw database packets
1843 through btool, for development
1844 - added thread callback signals for error finishes and erase_db
1845 operations, so the GUI is updated properly
1846 - more GUI cleanups (status bar updates, etc)
1847 - finished implementation of GUI restore
1848 - fixed gtkmm/glibmm exception handling when the exceptions
1849 occur in sigc signal handlers... in that case,
1850 exceptions need to be handled with
1851 Glib::add_exception_handler()
1852 - added filename-only reading support to TarFile class
1853 - added pending gui/TODO items
1855 - backup GUI now properly shows progress
1856 - the buttons become insensitive when backup is busy
1857 - refactored directory check code, and added mkdir check
1858 when to the backup setup (so the directory exists
1859 when we try to write to it)
1860 - updated code to use Barry::Data in new namespace
1862 - moved Data class into Barry namespace
1864 - updated copyright dates for the new year
1865 - clarified exception message in controller.cc
1866 - fixed pointer initialization bug in controller.cc
1867 - added documentation comments to parser.h and builder.h
1868 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt
1870 - changed Barry library configure scripts to make better
1871 use of pkg-config for autodetecting dependencies
1872 - added initial Barry Backup GUI (gui/ directory), capable of making
1873 backups only at this point
1875 - added doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1876 - added version API, returning version number and string
1877 - added Troy Engel to AUTHORS
1878 - added special case to bcharge.cc for the Blackberry Pearl,
1879 which doesn't reset itself after the charge handshake
1880 Thanks to Troy Engel for testing.
1882 - added pkg-config support for the library (libbarry-0.pc.in)
1883 - fixed compile error on g++ 3.3 systems (missing stdint.h
1885 - fixed protocol hang at end of Controller operation... in
1886 controller destructor, it was deleting the USB interface
1887 before closing the socket at the BlackBerry level, thereby
1888 leaving the device in Desktop mode
1890 - support the newer udev packages on Ubuntu, which need slightly
1892 - modified bcharge.cc to search for Pearl devices too.
1894 - added Pearl product ID to probe code, but likely not functional
1895 yet until we find someone able to get a USB capture for us
1897 - version bump in configure.ac and src/Makefile.am
1899 Release: version 0.4 - 2006/12/29
1900 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1902 - added bcharge.cc to the tools/ directory (whoohoo!)
1903 - added initial release version of rpm/barry.spec (aka bcharge.spec)
1904 This begins the barry binary release, currently only
1905 including the bcharge utility, but possibly more in
1906 the future. Future binary packages will likely include
1907 libbarry, libbarry-devel, etc, which barry will then
1909 - added udev rule script for BlackBerry devices
1910 - added man/ directory and bcharge.1 manpage
1911 - added debian/ directory for building deb packages, with initial
1913 - added rpm/make-rpm-tarball.sh for building RPMs

1915 a future Debian install
1916 - added more cleaning to buildgen.sh
1917 - added new udev rule file for Debian stable
1918 - hardcoded g++ to 3.3 in debian/rules as I have multiple versions
1919 on my system and need to compile releases with stable
1921 - ported Barry to use the stable branch of libusb
1922 NOTE: no longer depends on the devel libusb tarball!
1923 Just use your distro's libusb packages.

1939 - moved platform specific code out of time.h and into time.cc
1940 - moved btool.cc, translate.cc, and upldif.cc out of src/ and
1941 into their own tools/ subdirectory
1942 - added NEWS file to make autotools happy
1943 - added a "clean" option to the buildgen.sh script... maintainer's
1945 - reworked autoconf and automake files, to support
1946 barry as a library, to move the programs into their
1947 own tools directory, and support a proper installation
1948 - fixed headers in parser.h, btool.cc, and upldif.cc to work
1949 properly when installed standalone
1950 - added tools/Makefile.plain for testing compiling against
1951 installed barry library
1952 - added commentary on version number system

1991 specified multiple times to work with multiple records
1993 - added Calendar sync code to the opensync module (not complete)
1994 - cleaned up exception handling in the opensync module, making
1995 more use of the base exception to make sure no
1996 exceptions leak into the C library code
1998 Release: version 0.0.2 - 2006/10/12
1999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2001 - fixed casting error in opensync module
2002 - minor updates to documentation to prepare for release
2004 - added stdint.h to parser.h for uint32_t. Thanks Ron Gage for
2007 - large refactoring of the packet parsing and building code,
2008 splitting the code into 3 groups:
2009 - record: handles record specific parsing and building...
2010 this is mostly subfields with CommonField structs
2011 as their headers, but sometimes has a specific
2012 header of its own, in the case of email
2013 Note: email's header is as yet undecoded.
2014 Record does not know the details of the packet
2015 formats, only the formats of its own record data.
2016 - packet: handles building of complete command packets
2017 and handles parsing of commonly used header values,
2018 providing an API for it... packet does not know
2019 the record format details, but does know the
2020 details of each Database Operation (protocol.h)
2022 So far, it seems that there is a real separation
2023 of operation formats and record formats, with the
2024 record formats being the same even with different
2025 database operation codes (GET_RECORDS /
2026 OLD_GET_RECORDS), which was not confirmed before.
2027 See the header size of the email record after
2029 - controller: handles device state, and the management of
2030 sockets, commands, and checking for response values.
2031 The Controller object does not know the format
2032 of either the record or the packet it is sending,
2033 but does know the protocol handshake logic used
2034 to talk to the device.
2035 - implemented SetRecord (SET_RECORD_BY_INDEX)... syncing, here
2037 - spelling correction in opensync-plugin/AUTHORS
2039 - added sample hotplug scripts
2040 - added .cvsignore files for doxygen and opensync directories
2041 - added src/endian.h... still need to add configure support to
2042 handle non-little-endian machines
2043 - added exception handler in opensync plugin commit_change()
2044 - removed the device reset code in probe.cc, as resetting a device
2045 can renumber the devices in /proc on kernel 2.4.x,
2046 and cause a failure to reach the device...
2047 FIXME - this should be changed someday to reset if probing
2048 fails, and restart the probe on reset, as sometimes
2049 the blackberry devices respond differently when not reset
2050 Ideally, the probe protocol should be properly reverse
2052 - added support for retrieving record state table, which is needed
2054 - added support for retrieving, deleting, and clearing the dirty
2055 flags of individual blackberry device records
2056 - added endian macros throughout the code
2058 - added opensync-plugin to root Makefile's clean
2059 - updated time conversion calls to match opensync's latest SVN
2060 - added opensync_change_set_changetype() (only add for now,
2062 - removed slow sync functions for now
2064 - added quick "install" makefile target, to src/install by default
2065 - added static library target... this is temporary until autoconf
2066 stuff is added properly... needed for the opensync plugin
2067 - documented in comments that Barry::BError is intended to be
2068 the base classes for all exceptions
2069 - added first round of implementation of an opensync plugin, based
2070 on the example plugin code from the opensync sources
2072 - added to Contact record class:
2074 - ReadLdif() to load and parse LDAP data
2075 - added fragmented send support to Socket class
2076 - added Probe::FindActive() to make client programs more streamlined

2084 - old and new unique ID (UID)
2086 - old and new description
2088 - bes domain / domain
2089 - date change in legal.txt
2090 - added initial parsing of ServiceBook field 0x09, and calling it
2091 ServiceBookConfig for now, for lack of a better name
2092 - added parsing for ServiceBook field 0x02 on 72xx Blackberries...
2093 seems to be a name or description, but doesn't appear
2094 in the device's own GUI... called "Hidden Name" for now
2096 - added ServiceBook record class and parser code, based on some
2097 of Ron Gage's reverse engineering... code is by Chris Frey
2098 - added AUTHORS file
2099 - fixed the libusb set_configuration/claim_interface order
2100 bug in controller.{h,cc}... already fixed in probe,
2101 but not controller. Thanks Ron Gage for finding this.
2103 - renamed Changelog to ChangeLog in preparation for autoconf
2104 - renamed Todo to TODO in preparation for autoconf
2106 - make clean cleans up tests properly now

2126 - added Boost to list of dependencies in README
2127 - fixed minor compile warnings in base64.cc
2128 - fixed new USB discovery code, and changed endpoint usage to use

2148 - fixed packing bug in new upload header struct
2149 - renamed CommonField union from data to u to be consistent
2150 - added return_code field to DBAccess struct, for error checking
2151 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
2152 throw exception in controller.cc
2153 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
2154 contact data to the device, it may be important to write
2155 group link items last, since they reference other contacts...
2156 This needs to be tested, and if not required, removed.
2157 - added GROUP_FLAG field code to Contact parser class
2158 - fixed offset bug in Contact and Calendar Build() functions
2159 - fixed name bug in Contact::Build(), now output only with data

2175 - added boost::serialization to build
2176 - minor change in usbwrap.cc to display error codes in decimal
2177 - added SizePacket special case code to Socket::Send()... this is
2178 required when uploaded packet size is a multiple of 0x40,
2179 a special 3 byte size packet is sent
2180 - moved some record class variables to public: so they can be
2182 - fixed variable name but in RecordBuilder template

2202 02a2a3cc?hl=en#5714701b02a2a3cc
2203 - changed headers so that any low level protocol-specific sizes and
2204 structs are completely hidden in the library...
2205 this adds library-only header: protostructs.h
2207 Release: version 0.0.1 - 2005/11/25

2230 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
2231 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
2232 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
2233 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
2234 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
2235 Observed maximum blank count: 1
2236 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
2237 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
2238 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
2239 seem to need more time...)
2240 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
2241 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
2242 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
2243 with Python, if used(?)
2244 - added Message class for Email records
2245 - removed the "Get*" database functions and replaced with
2246 general LoadDatabase() call, which loads any database

2263 a public API function
2264 - moved Controller test code to btool.cc and made tool more
2265 generically useful... can now download any DB by name on
2267 - added mode checks to Controller
2268 - added -t and -d command line options to btool
2269 - added base64 routines from John Walker / Fourmilab and Citadel/UX
2270 - converted base64 routines into an API, instead of hardcoded
2273 - changed project name to Barry, including namespaces
2274 - renamed sbcommon.* to common.*
2275 - increased USB default timeout to 2 seconds
2276 - fixed formatting bug in Data operator<< output
2277 - cleaned up the protocol packet structs, getting rid of the
2278 confusing param/simple split... param is now the tableCmd
2279 from the Command Table
2280 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
2281 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
2282 the Cassis spec more closely
2283 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing
2284 - fixed Socket::Close() so on error, socket flags are reset.
2285 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
2288 - added Doxyfile to the project
2290 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
2291 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
2292 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent
2294 - added Command Table parsing and protocol support
2295 Blackberry class, and CommandTable record class

2300 less buffer than data copied
2301 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
2302 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
2303 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
2304 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
2306 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
2307 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
2309 - implemented socket::Close()
2310 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0

2318 - added blackberry.{h,cc} class
2319 - added command line parameters to bbtool.cc
2321 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
2322 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
2323 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
2325 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
2326 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
2327 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
2328 - regular debug output
2329 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
2330 syslog someday, and never turned off)
2331 - raw data dump output
2332 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
2333 numbers into english (limited success)
2334 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
2335 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
2336 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
2337 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
2338 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
2339 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
2340 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
2341 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
2342 for socket 0 operations.
2343 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
2347 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
2348 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
2349 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
2350 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
2352 - syncberry tree started
