8 - applied email MessageRecord patch from Brian Edginton (thanks!)
9 2007/06/21
10 - more porting of OpenSync module to 0.30
11 - added ctags build for opensync source tree to buildgen.sh
12 2007/06/14
13 - changed PKG_CONFIG_PATH setting in rpm script, so that systems
14 like SuSE that have an extensive PKG_CONFIG_PATH
15 in general use will not break on build
16 - added PKG_CONFIG_PATH to debian script too, just in case :-)
17 - added debian/changelog to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
18 - added comment to rpm/barry.spec regarding SuSE RPM builds
19 2007/06/08
20 - applied patch from Niels de Vos fixing debian package build
21 dependency
22 - applied Brian Edginton's Saved Email Messages patch
23 - updated r_saved_messages.cc comment to match header
24 - added GetRecType()/GetUniqueId() to r_saved_messages.h, since
25 SetIds() is already there
26 - removed Address version of operator<<() from message related headers
27 and moved into record.h
28 - added std::hex to message related dumps, and changed output to
29 be more mbox-like
30 - updated doc/CodingStyle.txt to cover switch() statements
31 - opensync compiles again, with 0.30! (not functional yet)
32 - moving closer to more modular and reusable plugin functions
33 - updated release checklist for opensync version number
34 2007/06/07
35 - added doc/CodingStyle.txt... preliminary version

37 - applied Brian Edginton's PIN message patch
38 - changes to PIN message patch:
39 - fixed missing backslash in src/Makefile.am
40 - fixed tab alignment throughout
41 - removed typedef from Address struct
42 - added clear() to Address... might as well, if it it is
43 going to be a standalone type
44 - fixed missing comma in PINMessageFieldLinks table
45 - changed MessageRecordId in PINMessage to load from a new
46 uint32_t field in CommonField, instead of piggy
47 backing on a field for other use
48 - did some testing and found that PINMessage's MessageRecordId
49 is the same as the RecordId given through the SetIds()
50 API... but these Id's are duplicated in the protocol...
51 RecordId is stored in the protocol header, while
52 MessageRecordId is stored in the record it self as
53 a common field... added RecType and RecordId to
54 PIN Message so that we store both of these
55 - updated AUTHORS

108 - updated udev/10-blackberry.rules.Debian for Debian Etch
109 - updated debian/rules to use new udev rules file
110 - removed debian/postinst, as stable versions of Debian now
111 have a recent udev, and don't need the special handling
112 - updated Debian build scripts to build separate packages:
113 libbarry
114 libbarry-dev
115 barry-util
116 barrybackup-gui
117 - added menu support to Debian barrybackup-gui package
118 - made the buttons bigger in the backup GUI, as they were too
119 small on Debian Etch
120 - opensync plugin:
121 - more progress in porting to opensync 0.30, heavily
122 based on the example plugin in the opensync
123 svn tree... this is a work in progress, and so far

125 2007/05/04
126 - opensync plugin:
127 - partial porting to opensync 0.30 (in progress!)
128 - fixed bug in sync_done where it reported context error

151 - opensync plugin:
152 - fixed size check bugs (strlen() == 0 when empty)
153 - finished refactoring calendar conversion routines
154 - started timezone parsing, but this may go away
155 if we use opensync 0.30's time functions and
156 xml data format...
157 - added development note to README
158 2007/04/29
159 - updated README and opensync-plugin/README with more current
160 build instructions
161 - opensync plugin:
162 - refactored some calendar conversion routines
163 - added Barry->vCalendar conversion for recurring appointments
164 2007/04/27
165 - opensync module:
166 - removed some unneeded trace logs
167 - fixed VEventConverter constructor bug, with uninitialized
168 m_Data pointer
169 - eased up the requirement that every calendar event
170 must have a summary... defaults to "<blank subject>"
171 if empty
172 - added more VCALENDAR fields to match Barry::Calendar record
173 - fixed case sensitive compares in vformat.c
174 2007/04/26
175 - opensync module work:
176 - added id map class to map string uid's from OpenSync to
177 numeric ID's from the Blackberry
178 - fixed bug in CommitChange() where it was still using
179 a hard coded calendar record state table
180 - added lots of logging throughout
181 - fixed bug where newly added records didn't use the
182 change object's uid, but created a new ID,
183 causing another sync on the next run
184 i.e. (CommitData_t was missing an argument)
185 - fixed bug where uninitialized notification time was
186 written to the Blackberry
187 - more opensync module work:
188 - refactored the environment class into another subclass
189 called DatabaseSyncState, and moved some stand-
190 alone functions from barry_sync.cc into
191 the environment classes
192 - added a tagged constructor to the trace class
193 - fixed idmap::Load() to clear map before loading
194 2007/04/20
195 - renamed barry-config to barry-sync, the default configuration
196 file for the opensync module... and filled it with
197 a sample configuration
198 - added code to update the calendar cache, and write it to disk
199 on success (opensync module)
200 - added code to clear dirty flags in the device (opensync module)
201 - allowed comments in the config file
202 - added vformat.c from libopensync 0.22, since the vformat
203 routines are not available from the plugin side
204 2007/04/19
205 - updated gui/TODO
206 - added -d switch to bcharge to switch back from 0001 to 0004 mode,
207 changed the auto-detection logic to ignore iProduct and
208 only use idProduct, and updated man page
209 - updated breset to recognize the Pearl in 00004 mode as well
210 - changed src/probe.cc logic to assume that the second endpoint
211 pair is the one needed for database communication, instead
212 of doing a reverse search from the end... newer Pearls
213 in Dual mode seem to have at least 3 or 4 endpoint pairs,
214 and the old search didn't always work
215 - applied sourceforge patch #1696884 from Peter Silva, updating
216 the Debian build for Etch, and including all files in one deb
217 - added Peter Silva to AUTHORS file
218 - uncommented the "make distclean" in debian/rules, and removed
219 the reliance on /tmp when installing 99-barry-perms.rules
220 - applied bb_task_format.txt patch from Peter Silva
221 - fixed each misspelling of "recurrance" to "recurrence"
222 - tweaked src/probe.cc again for paranoia's sake... start at
223 offset 1 if more than 1 endpoint pair, otherwise start
224 search at 0
225 - split up opensync module into multiple source files, and started
226 using the opensync vformat routines for parsing and building
227 the vevent20 data (experimental)
228 2007/04/04
229 - more incremental work on the opensync plugin, adding ADDED
230 and MODIFIED functionality... (experimental!)
231 2007/03/30
232 - added code to dump extra descriptors during device discovery,
233 if found
234 - bumped opensync version number in configure.ac, and made
235 the configure scripts more consistent with the rest
236 of the project
237 - fixed printf-format size bug in opensync module
238 2007/03/29
239 - applied patch from Niels de Vos, fixing deb udev rules for Pearl
240 - updated AUTHORS
241 - fixed extra space bug in LDIF output (added space when creating
242 FullName, even if there was no last name)
243 - fixed Address Book record parsing in Contact class... the
244 Blackberry database uses field id 0x20 for both the
245 first and last names, and if only a last name exists,
246 the first name will be empty. Fixed parser to handle
247 this special case, without relying on string length.
248 Thanks to Troy Engel for reporting above two LDIF bugs.
249 - added a few more constants to bcharge.cc
250 - renamed opensync's configure.in to configure.ac
251 2007/03/17
252 - fixed bcharge to avoid endless reset loop... oops
253 2007/03/16
254 - reorganized bcharge.cc to make it possible to switch between
255 Pearl modes 0004 and 0001
256 - added flag to BadPassword exception class, to signal whether
257 the library considers the device "out of retries" or not
258 - updated socket.cc for new BadPassword exception
259 - added special case to Controller class destructor to reset the
260 device if being destroyed in a half-open state... this is
261 a temporary fix until we understand how to handle
262 the "already open" message we get when opening the Desktop
263 in some cases
264 - added password prompt dialog to the backup GUI
265 - fixed possible memory leak in GUI's DeviceInterface::Connect()
266 2007/03/08
267 - committed Troy Engel's bbrules_mass_symlinks.patch, fixing
268 udev rules for the Pearl
269 - updated 10-blackberry.rules.Debian to match 10-blackberry.rules's
270 functionality
271 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to generate all required
272 RPM's... Thank you! Notes in the README taken from
273 the sourceforge tracker entry containing the patch.
274 - added libusb lib flags to tools/ and examples/ makefiles,
275 and tweaked configure.ac with a better default,
276 to build cleanly on RHEL 4
277 - modified rpm/barry.spec:
278 - does not create doc-only barry base package anymore
279 - fixed "barry-backup" typo
280 - removed the patch step, as version 0.7 shouldn't need it
281 - added license file to each package
282 - commented out console perms scripts, pending mailing list
283 discussion
284 - updated AUTHORS
285 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to fix RHEL4 compile issues
286 - fixed 80 column wrapping error in barry.spec, thanks to Troy Engel
287 for the bug report
288 - applied Troy Engel's udev permissions patch for Redhat/Fedora
289 systems, which automatically set the ownership of a
290 newly plugged in device to the currently logged in console
291 user.
292 - added udev/README to document what all those files are for...
293 part of the text comes from the sourceforge comment
294 on the above udev permissions patch from Troy Engel
295 - uncommented the console perms scripts for rpm/barry.spec
296 - added libglademm-2.4 to gui/README's dependency list
297 - made usbwrap.* calls more threadsafe
298 - added Usb::Timeout exception for timeout errors
299 - added preliminary UsbSerData support to library for GPRS modem
300 functionality, using Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry's serdata.c
301 as a guide
302 - added overloaded Socket::Send() for sending without receiving
303 - added preliminary pppob command line tool
304 2007/03/02
305 - version bump in:
306 - configure.ac
307 - src/Makefile.am
308 - src/version.cc
309 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
310 - src/Doxyfile
311 - rpm/barry.spec
312 - build system tweaks for opensync-plugin, and added a buildgen.sh
313 for it
314 - added better debug messages in probe.cc and usbwrap.cc's
315 device discovery code
316 - changed error handling for null interface->altsetting pointers
317 when doing device discovery in usbwrap.cc. Seems that
318 some devices report a higher number in bNumInterfaces
319 than are really available... in this case, let's
320 just ignore the missing data and assume success
321 - applied udev script patch #1663986 from Troy Engel
322 - applied barry-bcharge.spec patch #1672178 from Troy Engel
323 - ReleaseChecklist update
324 - added rpm/README based on Troy Engel's patch notes
325 - updated new barry-bcharge.spec for version 0.7, removing patch
326 dependency
328 Release: version 0.6 - 2007/02/28
329 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
330 2007/02/28
331 - fixed size checks for device database records larger than 64K
332 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
333 - added initial release maintainer scripts
334 - fixed odd backup success message in GUI when doing a backup with
335 no databases selected in configuration
336 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
337 - added udev permissions file patch from Michael Brown
338 - added Michael Brown to AUTHORS
339 - updated README, gui/README, and doc/USB-capture.txt
340 - added -o command line switch to bcharge.cc, and updated man page
341 2007/02/23
342 - changed library behaviour so it only turns on libusb debug output
343 if in data dump mode. In btool, -v controls this output.
344 - minor stream formatting fix in btool
345 - added OpenSSL dependency to build for password hash support
346 - made debug dout() output conditional on Init() flag... In btool,
347 -v now controls this as well
348 - reverse engineered more of the initial probe packets, and
349 implemented probing in struct based code... changes include:
350 - added support for "attribute fetch" packets, used at
351 the beginning of USB conversations
352 - defined object/attribute id codes for the PIN number
353 - made Protocol::SocketCommand more robust, and implemented
354 its sequence number behaviour
355 - moved ModeSelectCommand into SocketCommand, as it is a
356 socket 0 level command
357 - added initial protocol struct: PasswordChallenge
358 - renamed Barry::Packet to DBPacket
359 - added ZeroPacket for socket 0 packet creation and analysis
360 - Barry::Packet is now the base class for the above
361 - implemented socket 0 behaviour in socket.cc
362 - changed return values for Send/Receive/Packet/NextRecord
363 members in the Socket class from bool to void, as they
364 don't generate errors themselves, but only can
365 have an error if Usb::Device throws an exception.
366 Cleaned up all code that called these members as well.
367 - removed "last status" from Socket class as it was unused
368 - updated probe.cc to use new socket 0 implementation
369 - removed two of the hard coded packet handshakes in favour
370 of socket 0 packets
371 - updated controller.cc:
372 - uses new socket 0 implementation
373 - removed "flag" hack when opening sockets and
374 selecting modes, as it should use the
375 socket 0 sequence number
376 - added initial, incomplete prototype header for the C API
377 - updated some .cvsignore files
378 - updated TODO
379 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt, adding rpm spec file
380 - added the following to ZeroPacket:
381 - ChallengeSeed()
382 - RemainingTries()
383 - SocketResponse()
384 - SocketSqeuence()
385 - moved Command() to base Packet class
386 - added comments to protostructs.h and size constants for the
387 new PasswordChallenge struct
388 - added password support to Socket and Controller classes
389 Thanks to Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry for the openssl
390 password hashing logic.
391 - updated btool to use new password support, and updated its man page
392 2007/02/22
393 - updated Doxygen input files and version, and added to ReleaseChecklist
394 - fixed btool PIN output for LDIF mode, now commented in output
395 - major LDIF overhaul:
396 - split LDIF specific code out of the record class and
397 into its own
398 - fixed "full name" behaviour that added an extra space
399 in dn attributes, as reported by Troy Engel
400 - added support for mapping of LDIF attributes to Barry
401 contact field names
402 - fixed base64 handling, so attributes are only so encoded
403 if necessary
404 - fixed base64 attribute reading inconsistency... some
405 notes fields were missed in old version if not
406 encoded
407 - added support for specifying alternate attribute for
408 constructing a FQDN, instead of just "cn"
409 - updated btool and upldif to use new features
410 - large update to btool manpage
411 - fixed initialization bug in Contact constructor (missed RecType)
412 2007/02/15
413 - added ktrans.cc to make reading of kernel usbfs_snoop logs easier
414 - removed commented code from translate.cc
415 - added Pearl handshake support to bcharge.cc, which resets the
416 Pearl so that the vendor specific 0xFF class exists.
417 This should allow use of btool on the Pearl.
418 - added Data::AppendHexString to data.cc
419 - added better probing support for the Pearl, so it detects the
420 Product ID 0x0004 mode, and does a search for class 0xFF
421 instead of hardcoding it.
422 2007/02/10
423 - applied README patch from Ian Darwin
424 - minor tweaks to README
425 - added missing errno.h header in src/usbwrap.cc for AMD64
426 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting the bug.
427 - tightened up size checks in Data::ReleaseBuffer()
428 - stable libusb *does* return the actual length of the USB packet...
429 fixed this in usbwrap.cc to set the actual size of read data,
430 and removed the size hacks elsewhere in the code:
431 probe.cc, protocol.cc, socket.cc, usbwrap.cc
432 2007/02/09
433 - added proper return codes for error conditions in btool.cc
434 - clarified some stream output code in the library, for hex/dec numbers
435 - removed old, non-working connect.cc test program
436 - added iomanip to debug.h
437 - changed usbwrap to call libusb again if EINTR and EAGAIN
438 This should fix one of the OpenBSD issues
439 2007/02/04
440 - updated AUTHORS
441 - fixed bug in barrybackup GUI that didn't create the target path
442 if the user didn't do Edit | Config first.
443 Thanks to Ian Darwin for reporting the bug.
444 - applied gui/src/ConfigFile.cc header fix patch for OpenBSD
445 from Ian Darwin
446 2007/02/03
447 - added initial btool.1 man page from Ian Darwin
448 - updated man/Makefile.am for new btool.1
449 - updated AUTHORS
450 - applied btool -h help clarification patch from Ian Darwin
451 2007/02/02
452 - reworked exception hierarchy, so applications can handle all
453 Barry related exceptions, including Usb errors, with
454 one base class: Barry::Error
455 - fixed all the ripple changes this caused throughout the codebase
456 - added BadPassword exception
457 2007/02/01
458 - version bump in:
459 - configure.ac
460 - src/Makefile.am
461 - src/version.cc
462 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
463 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
464 - added usb-level breset.cc command line tool
465 - fixed bug in gui/src/tarfile.* for systems where
466 sizeof(int) != sizeof(void*)
467 - TarFile class now uses a plugin style for the compression
468 operations, to allow for threadsafe versions if needed
469 in the future.
470 - also fixed leaked file handle bug in open_compressed()
471 - Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this for 64bit systems
472 - minor signed comparison fixes in the library
473 - added better protocol data dumping code in probe.cc
474 - added Usb::Device::BulkDrain(), to prevent Barry from hanging
475 due to pending reads
477 Release: version 0.5 - 2007/01/26
478 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
479 2007/01/26
480 - added missing errno.h header to gui/src/util.cc
481 - lots more endian fixes after testing on iMac
482 - iostream output size fixes
483 - added option to btool to reset the device via software
484 - beefed up exception handling in barrybackup
485 - checked in opensync work-in-progress: trace logging, pointer bugfix
486 this is still experimental
487 - added aboutdialog.* files from gtkmm24 2.10.6, so we have a dialog
488 class for systems running older versions of gtkmm, like
489 Debian stable
490 - uncommented the about box menu handler
491 - added "cleanall" option to root buildgen.sh script
492 - update ReleaseChecklist.txt
493 - removed CVS auto-history strings from aboutdialog.*
494 2007/01/25
495 - found a link between the unknown field in tagged protocol headers
496 and the unknown field in RecordStateTable entries. This
497 field matters when uploading certain databases, such as
498 Browser Options. It is unknown what this field really
499 means, but we're calling it RecType. Updated the API
500 to use this in all parser objects and builder objects
501 and record objects that use it.
502 - changed some uses of uint64_t to uint32_t, in Contact and
503 Calendar record objects... unique IDs only seem to be
504 32 bits
505 - added new static function to record classes: GetDefaultRecType()
506 This returns the default rectype that should work
507 for that record. Ideally this should be retrieved from
508 the device, but in the case where a database has no
509 records, this info would be good to know.
510 - updated convenience template function Controller::AddRecordByType()
511 to use GetDefaultRecType()
512 - documented the recurrence data and how to use it in Calendar objects
513 - added data debug output for incoming USB packets in the
514 socket class... when we ported to the stable libusb
515 we lost some of the verbose output... this should get it
516 back. (In the official release, you need to uncomment
517 ddout() in debug.h for the full blast of debug output).
518 - backup GUI updates:
519 - changed error_done signal into a pure error signal,
520 and changed the logic so the restore continues
521 even if there was a protocol error on one database
522 - changed status bar messages to show what's happening
523 i.e. Backup or Restore
524 - default to not restore the "Handheld Agent" database as
525 it appears to be read-only on the device
526 - added temporary Restore & Backup mode for debugging
527 - added extra hyphen to backup files to show date/time better
528 - updated GUI to save and restore the new RecType field
529 supported now by the library
530 2007/01/21
531 - added future considerations to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
532 - applied big endian patch from Jonathan Hudson
533 - changes to patch:
534 - removed endian.h include from barry.h, since applications
535 using the library should not care about endianness
536 - hard coded the path to config.h in endian.h
537 so that endian.h never makes it into the final
538 install
539 - removed DEFAULT_INCLUDES setting from src/Makefile.am
540 for the same reason
541 - removed config.h dependency in btool.cc and used library
542 Version call instead
543 - added big/little endian text to the Barry::Version call
544 - updated AUTHORS
545 - fixed install location of bcharge when building with ./configure;
546 now goes to sbin/ for both source compile and binary packages
547 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this bug.
548 2007/01/20
549 - added smarter timeout values to controller, and allowed
550 timeout overrides in the packet, socket, and usbwrap code...
551 extra timeouts are needed for erasing databases for
552 some older devices
553 - added an explicit DataDumpParser class to btool.cc, as the
554 library doesn't always have extreme verbose debugging on...
555 this makes sure anyone can always get raw database packets
556 through btool, for development
557 - added thread callback signals for error finishes and erase_db
558 operations, so the GUI is updated properly
559 - more GUI cleanups (status bar updates, etc)
560 - finished implementation of GUI restore
561 - fixed gtkmm/glibmm exception handling when the exceptions
562 occur in sigc signal handlers... in that case,
563 exceptions need to be handled with
564 Glib::add_exception_handler()
565 - added filename-only reading support to TarFile class
566 - added pending gui/TODO items
567 2007/01/19
568 - backup GUI now properly shows progress
569 - the buttons become insensitive when backup is busy
570 - refactored directory check code, and added mkdir check
571 when to the backup setup (so the directory exists
572 when we try to write to it)
573 - updated code to use Barry::Data in new namespace
574 2007/01/18
575 - moved Data class into Barry namespace
576 2007/01/13
577 - updated copyright dates for the new year
578 - clarified exception message in controller.cc
579 - fixed pointer initialization bug in controller.cc
580 - added documentation comments to parser.h and builder.h
581 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt
582 - updated README
583 - changed Barry library configure scripts to make better
584 use of pkg-config for autodetecting dependencies
585 - added initial Barry Backup GUI (gui/ directory), capable of making
586 backups only at this point
587 2007/01/11
588 - added doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
589 - added version API, returning version number and string
590 - added Troy Engel to AUTHORS
591 - added special case to bcharge.cc for the Blackberry Pearl,
592 which doesn't reset itself after the charge handshake
593 Thanks to Troy Engel for testing.
594 2007/01/05
595 - added pkg-config support for the library (libbarry-0.pc.in)
596 - fixed compile error on g++ 3.3 systems (missing stdint.h
597 in probe.h)
598 - fixed protocol hang at end of Controller operation... in
599 controller destructor, it was deleting the USB interface
600 before closing the socket at the BlackBerry level, thereby
601 leaving the device in Desktop mode
602 2007/01/04
603 - support the newer udev packages on Ubuntu, which need slightly
604 different rules
605 - modified bcharge.cc to search for Pearl devices too.
606 USB product ID 6
607 - added Pearl product ID to probe code, but likely not functional
608 yet until we find someone able to get a USB capture for us
609 2006/12/29
610 - version bump in configure.ac and src/Makefile.am
612 Release: version 0.4 - 2006/12/29
613 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
614 2006/12/29
615 - added bcharge.cc to the tools/ directory (whoohoo!)
616 - added initial release version of rpm/barry.spec (aka bcharge.spec)
617 This begins the barry binary release, currently only
618 including the bcharge utility, but possibly more in
619 the future. Future binary packages will likely include
620 libbarry, libbarry-devel, etc, which barry will then
621 depend on.
622 - added udev rule script for BlackBerry devices
623 - added man/ directory and bcharge.1 manpage
624 - added debian/ directory for building deb packages, with initial
625 package scripts
626 - added rpm/make-rpm-tarball.sh for building RPMs
627 - split out technical docs into separate libbarry.docs file for
628 a future Debian install
629 - added more cleaning to buildgen.sh
630 - added new udev rule file for Debian stable
631 - hardcoded g++ to 3.3 in debian/rules as I have multiple versions
632 on my system and need to compile releases with stable
633 2006/12/21
634 - ported Barry to use the stable branch of libusb
635 NOTE: no longer depends on the devel libusb tarball!
636 Just use your distro's libusb packages.
637 - fixed more endian issues
638 - minor update to TODO
639 2006/12/15
640 - moved Exceptions, Hacking, and VersionNotes to doc/

654 into their own tools/ subdirectory
655 - added NEWS file to make autotools happy
656 - added a "clean" option to the buildgen.sh script... maintainer's
657 use only
658 - reworked autoconf and automake files, to support
659 barry as a library, to move the programs into their
660 own tools directory, and support a proper installation
661 - fixed headers in parser.h, btool.cc, and upldif.cc to work
662 properly when installed standalone
663 - added tools/Makefile.plain for testing compiling against
664 installed barry library
665 - added commentary on version number system
666 - removed Makefile.conf and Makefile.orig, as new autoconf
667 system supercedes it
668 - added support for boost serialization library in autoconf build
669 - added library version number to autoconf build
670 - changed boost flag to __BARRY_BOOST_MODE__ to avoid collisions
671 - removed debug.h dependency from btool.cc
672 - removed libusb check in favour of specific --with-libusb
673 option... may need to revisit this later
674 - quick installation update in README
675 2006/12/01
676 - fixed some missed endian conversions in record.cc and added
677 some size checks
678 - fixed endian issues in time.h

686 - added GetTimeZone() to convert device time zone codes to useful data
688 Release: version 0.0.3 - 2006/11/24
689 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
690 2006/11/23
691 - added return code check to Controller::SaveDatabase()
692 - fixed Data() class constructor, so it doesn't auto-convert
693 from any int
694 - fixed size checking bug in Packet::ReturnCode() that caused
695 uploading to device to fail
696 2006/11/10

704 specified multiple times to work with multiple records
705 at once
706 - added Calendar sync code to the opensync module (not complete)
707 - cleaned up exception handling in the opensync module, making
708 more use of the base exception to make sure no
709 exceptions leak into the C library code
711 Release: version 0.0.2 - 2006/10/12
712 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
713 2006/10/12

715 - minor updates to documentation to prepare for release
716 2006/09/29
717 - added stdint.h to parser.h for uint32_t. Thanks Ron Gage for
718 the bug report
719 2006/09/08
720 - large refactoring of the packet parsing and building code,
721 splitting the code into 3 groups:
722 - record: handles record specific parsing and building...
723 this is mostly subfields with CommonField structs
724 as their headers, but sometimes has a specific
725 header of its own, in the case of email
726 Note: email's header is as yet undecoded.
727 Record does not know the details of the packet
728 formats, only the formats of its own record data.
729 - packet: handles building of complete command packets
730 and handles parsing of commonly used header values,
731 providing an API for it... packet does not know
732 the record format details, but does know the
733 details of each Database Operation (protocol.h)
734 packet format.
735 So far, it seems that there is a real separation
736 of operation formats and record formats, with the
737 record formats being the same even with different
738 database operation codes (GET_RECORDS /
739 OLD_GET_RECORDS), which was not confirmed before.
740 See the header size of the email record after
741 refactoring.
742 - controller: handles device state, and the management of
743 sockets, commands, and checking for response values.
744 The Controller object does not know the format
745 of either the record or the packet it is sending,
746 but does know the protocol handshake logic used
747 to talk to the device.
748 - implemented SetRecord (SET_RECORD_BY_INDEX)... syncing, here
749 we come!
750 - spelling correction in opensync-plugin/AUTHORS
751 2006/09/01
752 - added sample hotplug scripts
753 - added .cvsignore files for doxygen and opensync directories
754 - added src/endian.h... still need to add configure support to
755 handle non-little-endian machines
756 - added exception handler in opensync plugin commit_change()
757 - removed the device reset code in probe.cc, as resetting a device
758 can renumber the devices in /proc on kernel 2.4.x,
759 and cause a failure to reach the device...
760 FIXME - this should be changed someday to reset if probing
761 fails, and restart the probe on reset, as sometimes
762 the blackberry devices respond differently when not reset
763 Ideally, the probe protocol should be properly reverse
764 engineered.
765 - added support for retrieving record state table, which is needed
766 for smarter syncing
767 - added support for retrieving, deleting, and clearing the dirty
768 flags of individual blackberry device records
769 - added endian macros throughout the code
770 2006/07/13
771 - added opensync-plugin to root Makefile's clean
772 - updated time conversion calls to match opensync's latest SVN
773 - added opensync_change_set_changetype() (only add for now,
774 for development)
775 - removed slow sync functions for now
776 2006/07/07
777 - added quick "install" makefile target, to src/install by default
778 - added static library target... this is temporary until autoconf
779 stuff is added properly... needed for the opensync plugin
780 - documented in comments that Barry::BError is intended to be
781 the base classes for all exceptions
782 - added first round of implementation of an opensync plugin, based
783 on the example plugin code from the opensync sources
784 2006/06/22
785 - added to Contact record class:
786 - Clear()
787 - ReadLdif() to load and parse LDAP data
788 - added fragmented send support to Socket class
789 - added Probe::FindActive() to make client programs more streamlined
790 - fixed hex/decimal printing of record counts in btool
791 - added upldif.cc, a utility to take ldapsearch output on stdin
792 and upload it to a blackberry
793 - updated src/.cvsignore
794 2006/06/16
795 - added parsing of service book fields:
796 - old and new name
797 - old and new unique ID (UID)
798 - content ID (CID)
799 - old and new description
800 - DSID
801 - bes domain / domain
802 - date change in legal.txt
803 - added initial parsing of ServiceBook field 0x09, and calling it
804 ServiceBookConfig for now, for lack of a better name
805 - added parsing for ServiceBook field 0x02 on 72xx Blackberries...
806 seems to be a name or description, but doesn't appear
807 in the device's own GUI... called "Hidden Name" for now
808 2006/06/09
809 - added ServiceBook record class and parser code, based on some
810 of Ron Gage's reverse engineering... code is by Chris Frey
811 - added AUTHORS file
812 - fixed the libusb set_configuration/claim_interface order
813 bug in controller.{h,cc}... already fixed in probe,
814 but not controller. Thanks Ron Gage for finding this.
815 2006/05/25
816 - renamed Changelog to ChangeLog in preparation for autoconf
817 - renamed Todo to TODO in preparation for autoconf
818 2006/05/18

827 support of the template Controller functions
828 - fleshed out DatabaseDatabase::GetDBNumber() and GetDBName(),
829 returning errors properly
830 - documented sample btool.cc code better, and added example
831 of Controller template member usage
832 2006/03/29
833 - copyright dates updated for 2006
834 2006/01/05
835 - backed out update to latest libusb DEVEL tree, since it is buggy.

838 - added clean target to convenience Makefile
839 - added Boost to list of dependencies in README
840 - fixed minor compile warnings in base64.cc
841 - fixed new USB discovery code, and changed endpoint usage to use
842 it, instead of the READ_ENDPOINT and WRITE_ENDPOINT
843 constants... constants are now removed
844 common.h, controller.cc, probe.cc, probe.h, usbwrap.cc
845 - added ClearHalt() to Usb::Device (usbwrap.cc)
846 - updated usbwrap.h to match latest libusb CVS devel tree

861 - fixed packing bug in new upload header struct
862 - renamed CommonField union from data to u to be consistent
863 - added return_code field to DBAccess struct, for error checking
864 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
865 throw exception in controller.cc
866 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
867 contact data to the device, it may be important to write
868 group link items last, since they reference other contacts...
869 This needs to be tested, and if not required, removed.
870 - added GROUP_FLAG field code to Contact parser class
871 - fixed offset bug in Contact and Calendar Build() functions
872 - fixed name bug in Contact::Build(), now output only with data

877 - refactored the protocol structures so that record structs can
878 be reused for upload and download
879 - with new protostructs, more header control is handled by
880 controller.cc instead of record.cc parsers and builders
881 - parser code now accepts an offset, to govern start of record data
882 - changed Data sizes from int to size_t and removed casts
883 - removed unneeded Parser::GetHeaderSize() (new protostructs make
884 this obsolete)
885 - added Calendar::Build() for calendar uploads
886 2005/12/10
887 - added s11n-boost.h serialization templates for boost::serialization
888 - added boost::serialization to build
889 - minor change in usbwrap.cc to display error codes in decimal
890 - added SizePacket special case code to Socket::Send()... this is
891 required when uploaded packet size is a multiple of 0x40,
892 a special 3 byte size packet is sent
893 - moved some record class variables to public: so they can be
894 properly serialized
895 - fixed variable name but in RecordBuilder template
896 - added -f switch to btool, for saving and loading of record data

905 - Contact record.h class now saves unknown Group Link field,
906 for later saving
907 2005/12/07
908 - added -fno-strict-aliasing to compiler flags so gcc-4.0.x won't
909 optimize away protocol struct casts
910 see:
911 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25235

915 02a2a3cc?hl=en#5714701b02a2a3cc
916 - changed headers so that any low level protocol-specific sizes and
917 structs are completely hidden in the library...
918 this adds library-only header: protostructs.h
920 Release: version 0.0.1 - 2005/11/25
921 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
922 2005/11/25

941 - added README documentation in preparation for future release
942 2005/11/19
943 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
944 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
945 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
946 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
947 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
948 Observed maximum blank count: 1
949 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
950 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
951 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
952 seem to need more time...)
953 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
954 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
955 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
956 with Python, if used(?)
957 - added Message class for Email records
958 - removed the "Get*" database functions and replaced with
959 general LoadDatabase() call, which loads any database
960 available, and parses it with a Parser object

972 - added header comments to convo.awk script
973 - removed Test() function in Controller object, and made class
974 better suited to its general API purpose
975 - changed OpenMode() so it loads command table and DBDB... it is now
976 a public API function
977 - moved Controller test code to btool.cc and made tool more
978 generically useful... can now download any DB by name on
979 the command line
980 - added mode checks to Controller
981 - added -t and -d command line options to btool
982 - added base64 routines from John Walker / Fourmilab and Citadel/UX
983 - converted base64 routines into an API, instead of hardcoded
984 file based
985 2005/11/18
986 - changed project name to Barry, including namespaces
987 - renamed sbcommon.* to common.*
988 - increased USB default timeout to 2 seconds
989 - fixed formatting bug in Data operator<< output
990 - cleaned up the protocol packet structs, getting rid of the
991 confusing param/simple split... param is now the tableCmd
992 from the Command Table
993 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
994 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
995 the Cassis spec more closely
996 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing
997 - fixed Socket::Close() so on error, socket flags are reset.
998 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
999 destructors
1000 2005/11/17
1001 - added Doxyfile to the project
1002 - tuned Makefile
1003 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
1004 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
1005 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent
1006 data transfers.
1007 - added Command Table parsing and protocol support
1008 Blackberry class, and CommandTable record class
1009 - added Database database parsing and protocol support
1010 Blackberry class and DatabaseDatabase record class
1011 - added Address book retrieval support - dumps data to stdout for now
1012 - fixed bug in CopyOnWrite mode in Data class, where could allocate
1013 less buffer than data copied
1014 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
1015 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
1016 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
1017 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
1018 data
1019 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
1020 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
1021 saved
1022 - implemented socket::Close()
1023 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0
1024 - added Socket::NextRecord() for multiple record data transfers
1025 - fixed input handling bug in translate.cc
1026 2005/11/11
1027 - added .cvsignore files to project
1028 - added README notes to document the source architecture
1029 - added dbsetup data script, which shows how to get into database
1030 mode, using the RIM Desktop mode, and open a socket
1031 - added blackberry.{h,cc} class
1032 - added command line parameters to bbtool.cc
1033 -l = list only
1034 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
1035 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
1036 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
1037 results
1038 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
1039 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
1040 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
1041 - regular debug output
1042 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
1043 syslog someday, and never turned off)
1044 - raw data dump output
1045 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
1046 numbers into english (limited success)
1047 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
1048 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
1049 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
1050 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
1051 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
1052 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
1053 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
1054 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
1055 for socket 0 operations.
1056 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
1057 MAKE_PACKET()
1058 COMMAND()
1059 IS_COMMAND()
1060 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
1061 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
1062 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
1063 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
1064 2005/10/20
1065 - syncberry tree started
