8 2005/12/30
9 - added clean target to convenience Makefile
10 - added Boost to list of dependencies in README
11 - fixed minor compile warnings in base64.cc
12 - fixed new USB discovery code, and changed endpoint usage to use
13 it, instead of the READ_ENDPOINT and WRITE_ENDPOINT
14 constants... constants are now removed
15 common.h, controller.cc, probe.cc, probe.h, usbwrap.cc
16 - added ClearHalt() to Usb::Device (usbwrap.cc)
17 - updated usbwrap.h to match latest libusb CVS devel tree

31 2005/12/23
32 - fixed packing bug in new upload header struct
33 - renamed CommonField union from data to u to be consistent
34 - added return_code field to DBAccess struct, for error checking
35 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
36 throw exception in controller.cc
37 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
38 contact data to the device, it may be important to write
39 group link items last, since they reference other contacts...
40 This needs to be tested, and if not required, removed.
41 - added GROUP_FLAG field code to Contact parser class
42 - fixed offset bug in Contact and Calendar Build() functions

51 controller.cc instead of record.cc parsers and builders
52 - parser code now accepts an offset, to govern start of record data
53 - changed Data sizes from int to size_t and removed casts
54 - removed unneeded Parser::GetHeaderSize() (new protostructs make
55 this obsolete)

62 required when uploaded packet size is a multiple of 0x40,
63 a special 3 byte size packet is sent
64 - moved some record class variables to public: so they can be
65 properly serialized
66 - fixed variable name but in RecordBuilder template

86 02a2a3cc?hl=en#5714701b02a2a3cc
87 - changed headers so that any low level protocol-specific sizes and
88 structs are completely hidden in the library...
89 this adds library-only header: protostructs.h
91 Release: version 0.0.1 - 2005/11/25
92 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

114 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
115 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
116 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
117 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
118 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
119 Observed maximum blank count: 1
120 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
121 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
122 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
123 seem to need more time...)
124 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
125 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
126 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
127 with Python, if used(?)
128 - added Message class for Email records
129 - removed the "Get*" database functions and replaced with
130 general LoadDatabase() call, which loads any database

144 - removed Test() function in Controller object, and made class
145 better suited to its general API purpose
146 - changed OpenMode() so it loads command table and DBDB... it is now
147 a public API function
148 - moved Controller test code to btool.cc and made tool more
149 generically useful... can now download any DB by name on
150 the command line
151 - added mode checks to Controller
152 - added -t and -d command line options to btool
153 - added base64 routines from John Walker / Fourmilab and Citadel/UX

155 file based
156 2005/11/18
157 - changed project name to Barry, including namespaces
158 - renamed sbcommon.* to common.*
159 - increased USB default timeout to 2 seconds
160 - fixed formatting bug in Data operator<< output
161 - cleaned up the protocol packet structs, getting rid of the
162 confusing param/simple split... param is now the tableCmd
163 from the Command Table
164 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
165 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
166 the Cassis spec more closely
167 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing
168 - fixed Socket::Close() so on error, socket flags are reset.
169 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
170 destructors
171 2005/11/17
172 - added Doxyfile to the project
173 - tuned Makefile
174 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
175 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
176 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent
177 data transfers.
178 - added Command Table parsing and protocol support
179 Blackberry class, and CommandTable record class
180 - added Database database parsing and protocol support
181 Blackberry class and DatabaseDatabase record class
182 - added Address book retrieval support - dumps data to stdout for now
183 - fixed bug in CopyOnWrite mode in Data class, where could allocate
184 less buffer than data copied
185 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
186 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
187 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
188 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
189 data
190 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
191 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
192 saved
193 - implemented socket::Close()
194 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0
195 - added Socket::NextRecord() for multiple record data transfers
196 - fixed input handling bug in translate.cc
197 2005/11/11
198 - added .cvsignore files to project
199 - added README notes to document the source architecture
200 - added dbsetup data script, which shows how to get into database
201 mode, using the RIM Desktop mode, and open a socket
202 - added blackberry.{h,cc} class
203 - added command line parameters to bbtool.cc
204 -l = list only
205 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
206 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
207 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
208 results
209 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
210 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
211 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
212 - regular debug output
213 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
214 syslog someday, and never turned off)
215 - raw data dump output
216 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
217 numbers into english (limited success)
218 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
219 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
220 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
221 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
222 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
223 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
224 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
225 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
226 for socket 0 operations.
227 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
228 MAKE_PACKET()
229 COMMAND()
230 IS_COMMAND()
231 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
232 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
233 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
234 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
235 2005/10/20
236 - syncberry tree started
