1 Release: version 0.15 - 2008/10/??
2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 - added more notes to doc/USB-capture.txt, documenting my kernel
5 setup for capturing USB traffic, and added size-limiting
8 - moved Product ID constants into a single place (src/common.h)
10 - added Product ID 8007 for the Blackberry Storm... needs testing
12 - applied ppp chat script patch for AT&T Cingular from
14 - added new chat scripts to debian and rpm packages
15 - added known sources of additional Barry binary packages to index.php
16 - turned on call/caller graph support in Doxygen output
18 - applied 'patch' of Martin Owens' Content Store documentation
21 - large refactoring of all message/email record classes, and more
22 There is now a MessageBase base class, which combines
23 common email record parsing code in one class. This base
24 class is reused by all the specific messages record classes.
25 This commit also includes support for multiple email
26 addresses per email, as well as giving IConverter support
27 to all message classes.
28 - deleted empty *.cc files from project
29 - updated TODO file, removing opensync i18n bug
30 - added TODO item for password support in Opensync... try to avoid
31 storing the password in the sync config in plain text
32 - fixed dll export bug on ErrnoError exception class
33 - added BadPackedFormat exception for internal use
34 - ServiceBook: added IConverter support, and general cleanup
35 Refactored ServiceBook class and added some experimental
36 template functions to generalize the FieldLink table
37 processing. If possible, this needs to be expanded
38 to the general record classes, to reduce the amount of
39 code duplication during processing of FieldLinks and
40 CommonField structures.
41 Also, ServiceBook deals with packed fields, which should
42 also be extrapolated for general use, and reused if
43 possible for the new "Calendar - All" Blackberry databases
44 that are coming out on the new devices and firmare.
46 - updated man/btool.1 with new -i option
47 - fixed bug where opensync plugin didn't pass IConverter to Desktop
48 - added IConverter support to r_calendar.cc
49 - renamed utf8Needed to iconvNeeded, for consistency
50 - added IConverter support to r_folder.cc
51 - added IConverter support to r_memo.cc
52 - added IConverter support to r_message.cc
53 - added EmailAddressList, in preparation for multi-address email
55 - changed Parser base class to pure abstract... this is so that
56 future API changes to the Parse base class will be
57 detected by the compiler as errors
58 - added NullParser class, which performs the old Parser function
59 - changed all FieldLink arrays to static
60 - added new IConverter class to support converting the Blackberry's
61 WINDOWS-1252 charset to/from UTF-8 and more
62 - fixed bug in IConverter that saved end of string instead of
64 - reorganized barry.h app header and record.h header, so that
65 internal builds have fewer dependencies
66 - large parser/builder API change, adding IConverter support
67 This change starts at the top (Mode::Desktop) which
68 takes an optional IConverter object for parsing and
69 building conversions. The Desktop class passes
70 this IConverter object to Packet, Parser, and Builder (and
71 thereby, the corresponding Record classes) as needed.
72 This adds an extra pointer to a fair number of calls
73 in the stack, but maintains flexibility without putting
74 too much of a burden on Parser writers, which could be
76 The primary use of this architecture is to pass in an
77 IConverter configured to convert to UTF-8... this is
78 basically the only useful conversion method, but others
79 are possible if you want to play.
80 - first record class to support string conversions: Contact
81 - reverted the barry.h and record.h reorganization, since
83 - reorganized barry.h and record.h again, making inclusion of
84 the record headers dependent on whether it is a library
86 - updated the gui with the parser/builder API change
87 - added IConverter to opensync plugin, set to UTF-8
89 - added comment to src/r_contact.h deprecating the Phone field
90 - updated Doxyfile to 1.5.1
91 - added Christopher D. Stover to AUTHORS file as Fedora contact
93 - forgot #include <string.h> for memcpy/memset in tools/bfuse.cc
94 - moved bfuse install point from /usr/sbin to /usr/bin
96 - added FUSE filesystem "driver"
98 - commented out the info.subsystem match level in HAL FDI file...
99 this should let the FDI work on old and new systems.
100 HAL version 0.5.8 (used by Debian Etch) has the deprecated
101 info.bus property, and doesn't have info.subsystem yet.
102 - added HAL FDI scripts to rpm/barry.spec
103 - fixed tools/Makefile.plain
105 - added support for multiple work/home phone numbers to the
107 - Thanks to Richard Esplin for his test data.
108 - This fix has a conflict when a cell phone number is
109 marked as the preferred contact as well.
110 See http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=20081030231045.GA28989%40foursquare.net
111 for the full details.
112 - This fix also changes the VCARD output... pager phone
113 numbers are given the TYPE code of "pager"
115 - Added OtherPhone field as well
117 - applied HAL FDI scripts and configuration from Martin Owens
118 - updated AUTHORS file
119 - added HAL FDI and python script to Debian package install
121 - updated copyright notice and help text in contrib/modemtest.rb
122 - changed barry-verizon.chat script according to Andy Herkey's
123 recommendation... this worked much better for Michael L.
124 Stokes, since his provider was getting stuck on the ATZ
126 - applied Andy Herkey's modemtest.rb ruby script to contrib/
127 from his Aug 9, 2008 email to the mailing list
128 - applied Andy Herkey's new modemtest.rb script to contrib/
129 from his Oct 8, 2008 email to the mailing list
130 - added password pass-through code for pppob -s mode
131 - clarified front page www doc, adding date of last release
133 - cherry-picked changes from Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo's debian git repo
134 - debian/rules was stripping wrong library names
135 - FSF address was incorrect (also updated other source
136 files throughout the tree myself)
137 - more complete debian/copyright file
143 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
147 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
148 - added link to doxygen documentation to www index.php

164 tags in the git repos
166 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
167 - moving items from private todo list to TODO file
168 - removed unused variable from maintainer/git-release-tar.sh
169 - added new maintainer/git-tagged-tar.sh, which puts more data
170 in the git repo, to make it easier for official Debian
172 - moved src/Doxyfile to ./Doxyfile to avoid ".." in the config...
173 the ".." paths confused doxygen and caused it to generate
174 non-relative paths in the documentation.
175 - added umask to maintainer/git-extract.sh, so it works even without
177 - updated maintainer/tar-prepare.sh to match the new Doxyfile
178 - added maintainer/tagged-release.sh, as replacement for the
179 release.sh top level script, when using git
180 - removed CVS-style ID code from contrib/barry-unbind-storage.sh
181 since it made it look like cdfrey wrote it
182 - removed doc/CodingStyle.txt as it is now documented in html
184 - added device name and backup label support to the GUI
185 It is now possible to name devices, instead of just
186 operating by PIN number, and it is possible to now
187 add a text label to the backup tar filenames.
188 - added the device names to the device selection dialog
190 - updated TODO list with i18n opensync bug and general i18n support
191 - added test suite to TODO list
193 - renamed libbarry to libbarry0 in rpm/barry.spec

195 Makes it easier to track variable changes across
197 - added note to NEWS regarding binary package renaming
199 - fixed logic error in breset that displayed error on success
200 Thanks to Richard Esplin for reporting this bug.
201 - applied commit's from Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo's debian git repo
202 git://git.debian.org/git/users/jsogo/barry.git
203 - Add binary dependency of libbarry-dev on libusb-dev
204 - Rename libbarry to libbarry0, per debian policy
205 - Add exact dependency on binary:Version for every
206 -dbg and -dev package
207 - Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.0
209 - clarified barrybackup error message when no records available
210 Added a check so that "no databases selected" and
211 "no records available" are two distinct error messages.
213 - applied ppp chat script patch from Mick Reed
214 - updated RPM and Debian packages with new tmobileus ppp scripts
215 - added T-Mobile US to web documentation
217 - clarified sync docs regarding slow-sync... avoid it if possible
218 - tuned doxygen config, and moved generated files to doc/www/doxygen
219 - added git-release-tar.sh, replacing CVS's make-release-tar.sh
220 Also added doxygen to the release tarball creation, so
221 the source code's doxygen documentation is automatically
222 generated upon release.
223 - split git-release-tar.sh into reusable component scripts
225 - added exception handler for invalid command line options in GUI
226 - fixed barrybackup man page, removing bad -v option
227 - added distro section to AUTHORS
228 - fixed comment and whitespace problems in time.{h,cc}
229 - Converted Birthday from string to Date, and added Anniversary
230 support. Birthday and Anniversary fields now use a new
231 Date struct, and Barry validates the data to some extent.
232 - updated example code and opensync plugin to match
233 - applied Lee Dixon's Location and Description plugin patch,
234 with minor whitespace edits
236 - added Birthday field to examples/addcontact.cc for testing
238 - applied Lee Dixon's Birthday field and opensync patch
239 - fixed coding format issues
242 - fixed bug in m_ipmodem.cc that included a null terminator in
244 - fixed RFC 2426 conformance bug... RFC 2426, 3.1.1 states that FN
245 MUST be present in the vcard object. If there is no name
246 available, then we use the Company name if available. It
247 should be, since the Blackberry requires either name or Company
248 in order to create a new address. If Company is blank too, then
249 we insert "(Blank Name)".
250 - On the flip side of this same bug, it is possible to receive
251 non-conformant vcard data from evolution / opensync
252 that does not include FN. Since the Blackberry
253 doesn't require this information, remove the
254 exception, and only throw an exception if FN
255 or Company are both blank.
256 - REVERT: removed the Company and "(Blank Name)" workarounds,
257 and just produce an invalid vcard if no full name,
258 since with multiple syncing, this will come back
259 to bite us with duplicated Company name data
260 - added sanity check to contact class for blank name and company
261 - added BadData exception class, and documented it
263 - fixed bug in vAttr::GetValue that ignored index for single valued
264 attributes... this should fix the endless loop / memory
265 exhaustion that some people have been seeing
266 Thanks to Lee Dixon for reporting this bug in detail!
267 - added TODO list item for implementing recurring calendar items
273 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
277 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
278 - updated web docs showing how to set the password when using modem
279 - added section to docs on how to test the modem connection

288 - added O2 Ireland to list of modem scripts
289 - removed ubuntu80464 and fc6 from binary package list
293 - applied barry-unbind-storage.sh script from Niels de Vos...
294 added to contrib for now, in the interests of getting
295 version 0.13 released soon... we can work on integrating
296 this better in 0.14, which hopefully won't take so long :-)
298 - added g++ (>= 4.1) to Debian build dependency list
299 - added support to base library and utilities for multiple email
300 addresses in Contact records
301 - added opensync support for multiple contact email addresses
302 - applied ppp chat scripts for O2 Ireland from Simon Kenyon
304 - integrated O2 Ireland scripts into binary package installs
306 - applied David Mansfield's opensync module password patch (ported
307 manually to latest upcoming 0.13)
309 - added password documentation to sample barry-sync module config
310 - updated web docs with new password sample config
312 - removed old, unused spec file and scripts for bcharge-only release
313 - fixed rpm build instructions in web docs
314 - reduced minimum password retry level from 6 to 3... Reinhold Schoeb
315 reports that his 8800 device only lets him set a password
316 retry range between 3 and 5, instead of the usual 10 that
319 - added "known issues" section to main www doc page
320 - fixed virtual function mis-name bug in btool's null parser
321 - added -i option to brecsum, to include record IDs in the sums
322 - applied Ashley Willis's btool 0.12 null parser patch to CVS, which
323 required some manual porting changes...
324 - removed bool reference argument in GetParser()
326 - applied Ashley Willis's perlbarry package, putting it in the
327 new contrib/ directory
329 - now that btool patch is applied, don't need it in contrib
330 - removed openssl from dependencies documentation, as barry now
331 has its own sha1 code
332 - added libtool to dependencies documentation
333 - rpm/barry.spec file now assumes gui and opensync, with conditional
334 checks depending which system it is being built on...
335 --with gui and --with opensync are no longer needed.
336 - updated release scripts to build RPMs with the new spec file
338 - updated udev rules to recognize devices with the 8004 Product ID
339 - fixed bug in test/buildtest.sh when opensync is not pre-built

350 the directory that contains it
351 - added note to patch webpage regarding testing patches to the
353 - removed mis-configured 'make dist' check from buildtest.sh
354 - added missing 'scoped_lock.h' to src/Makefile.am's non-installed
355 headers, as it is an internal header only
356 - improved buildtest.sh: speed, accuracy
357 - added -j option to make to speed builds
358 - moved cleanall check above 'make dist' as dist doesn't
359 clean up after itself
360 - commented out 'make distcheck' for now, as it doesn't work
361 - added DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS to root Makefile.am, similar to
362 David Everly's patch in tracker # 1973536
363 Thanks David! 'make distcheck' now works, but only in
364 an environment like buildtest.sh creates.
365 Also, buildtest.sh passes all tests now, including distcheck.
367 - removed unused src/controllertmpl.h
368 - added ppp and test directories to Makefile.am EXTRA_DIST
370 - added beginnings of a build system test script

383 - added try/catch in IpModem destructor
384 - removed FIXME comment about endian issues
385 - added data size checks to SendPassword()
387 - renamed class variable session_key to match others
388 - added check to skip password if "" is passed in
389 - added the m_filter for ipmodem PPP 0x7e filtering
390 back, since the 8320 w/ rogers seems to need it
393 - added timeout argument to Device::BulkDrain()
394 - added mozilla's sha1 code from git
395 - removed openssl dependency due to license issues
396 Debian and Ubuntu have checks in their lintian tool that
397 check for GPL+OpenSSL linkage. In order to remove any
398 potential obstacles to future inclusion in those distros,
399 the dependency is removed here in favour of the small
400 mozilla implementation which is GPL.
402 - added notes to web documentation for OpenBSD
403 - documentation updates:
404 - changed git patch command to use format-patch

454 them automatically in binary packages
455 - modified verizon options file to use pppob
456 - split the sample rogers options file into options and chat files
458 - put sequence packet check directly in the SocketZero::RawReceive()
459 function, which now localizes all sequence packet
460 handling and checking, as well as avoids packet
461 order problems when multiple sockets are in use,
462 such as with pppob...
463 FIXME - this localized sequence checking may make all
464 the calls to CheckSequence() obsolete which
465 should probably be cleaned up someday, if so.
466 - reorganized src/socket.cc to match class private/public
467 order (no code change, only move)
468 - added verbose log message to Controller constructors, so it is
469 possible to determine whether a program is using
470 threaded or non-threaded sockets
471 - added -z and -Z command line options to btool to control
472 the non-threaded/threaded behaviour, respectively;
473 and updated the man page
474 - removed debug sleep() calls from pppob
475 - added SIGINT signal handler so pppob shutsdown gracefully when
478 - mention CVS and git on main documentation "how to" list
479 - moved PPP filter logic into its own class

482 copying, and clarified why there is no GetBuffer()
483 - added ProbeResult::HasIpModem() to determine whether
484 IpModem endpoints are available
485 - added pure virtual Modem base class for common
486 modem-oriented API (only Open and Write so far)
487 - Mode::IpModem is now derived from Barry::Modem
488 - experimental implementation for Mode::Serial,
489 which is now derived from Barry::Modem,
491 - pppob now supports IpModem and Serial modes, and logging
492 to file instead of stderr
493 - added man page for pppob
495 - modified the planned version numbering scheme in doc/VersionNotes,
496 so that a 1.0 is possible, with 1.50 as the devel series
498 - continuing to update html documentation in preparation for
501 - removed -fvisibility-inlines-hidden compile options since some
502 distros have old or broken compilers or libraries where
503 the build breaks looking for STL templates (Ubuntu 7.10,
504 I'm looking at you...)
505 - changed brecsum so usage information is displayed automatically
506 if no command line arguments are specified
507 - added opensync-plugin to maintainer test scripts, and added
508 ubuntu710 to the test build sequence
510 - updated doc/TroubleShooting.txt
511 - removed usb_control message check from IpModem endpoint probing
512 in src/probe.cc, since some devices, like the 8700
513 have both RIM_UsbSerData mode and IpModem mode.
514 - fixed serialization code for Calendar record class, in s11n-boost.h
515 - made UnknownField's data member into its own type,

517 like a null terminated string... also added more
518 BuildField() helper functions for accuracy
519 - fixed missing fields in the Calendar record build process
520 - added Calendar to list of Builders in tools/btool...
521 it is now possible to run: btool -s "Calendar" -f datafile
522 - added tools/brecsum program, which calculates SHA1 checksums
523 on database records, for testing
524 - added brecsum to debian and rpm builds
525 - added recurrence builder function to Calendar record builder code
526 which completes builder support
527 Checksums from the following commands now match:
528 brecsum -d Calendar > sum1.txt
529 btool -d Calendar -f calendar.dat
530 btool -s Calendar -f calendar.dat
531 brecsum -d Calendar > sum2.txt
532 diff -u <(sort sum1.txt) <(sort sum2.txt)
534 - applied Jason Thomas's ACLOCAL_FLAGS patch to make autoreconf
535 work again... Thanks!
536 - applied Jason Thomas's debian build dependency patch
539 - started documentation overhaul in doc/www, putting the commonly
540 asked questions right on the front page, and making it more
541 goal-oriented, so it is hopefully easier to use
544 - fixed error messages in m_desktop.cc that still referred
547 - major merge of barry-b1-socket-arch-branch into MAIN.
548 The following is the changelog from that branch, which is now MAIN.

562 - fixed bug in probe class, which missed storing the PIN
563 number in ProbeResult
564 - also added ProbeResult constructor
565 - merged changes from visibility branch:
566 - GCC visibility support, limiting what symbols are
567 visible in the shared library, libbarry... this makes
568 a drastic reduction in the symbol table, and should
569 avoid future name clashes with other libraries such

605 - updated GUI and opensync plugin to compile with new API
606 - moved Raw Send/Receive socket functions to private
607 - fixed packet header size bug in socket that caused
608 socket ID override to be skipped
609 - fixed incorrect use of gettimeofday()
610 - fixed race condition where Controller could destroy
611 the Usb::Device object before the SocketRoutingQueue
613 - fixed segfault in SocketZero::RawSend() when a router
615 - fixed Open() bugs in btool... Open() must be outside of loops
616 - btool uses the router thread now, for testing
617 - partially implemented m_serial.{h,cc}... needs testing
618 - added automatic buffer allocation to SocketRoutingQueue
620 - made AllocateBuffers() a little smarter, so it was not
622 - added a context data pointer to the SocketRoutingQueue
623 RegisterInterest callback
624 - added RegisterInterest functionality to Socket class
625 - added exceptions on router read errors in socketzero
627 - implemented router.{h,cc}... looks ready for testing,
628 once things compile again
630 - merged HEAD changes
631 - added router.cc and continued work on new arch
632 - merged HEAD changes for 2008 copyright statements
633 - added scoped_lock.h
634 - added ErrnoError exception class
635 - documented Controller / SocketRoutingQueue behaviour
636 - more router implementation
638 - audit and cleanup of socket.{h,cc} code... looks ready
639 for testing now, once things compile again
640 - removed FIXME in router.*
641 - removed pthread header from pppob as it is not needed
643 - merged HEAD changes
645 - merged HEAD changes
647 - branch started, to track development of the new socket
648 architecture, and new mode architecture, needed
649 to support GPRS modem support, and threaded
651 - committed work-in-progress... does not compile
654 - added Tasks and Memos to TODO list
656 - added support for Blackberry 8120, which has a unique Product ID
657 Sourceforge tracker ID: 1829537
659 - removed TimeZones from TODO list, as it is done
665 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
669 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
670 - added GCC visibility support, limiting what symbols are visible
671 in the shared library, libbarry... this makes a drastic
672 reduction in the symbol table, and should avoid future
673 name clashes with other libraries such as opensync
674 See: http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility
676 Release: version 0.12 - 2008/03/21
677 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
679 - changed maintainer script to use CVS export instead of checkout,
680 to avoid the CVS directories
681 - added support for building Debian source packages with proper
682 diff.gz and dsc files
683 - fixed find warning in maintainer/make-rpm.sh
684 - added support for Ubuntu binary packages to the maintainer build
687 - renamed all vformat_ and VFormat symbols in opensync plugin's
688 copy of vformat code, so they don't conflict with the
689 real opensync libraries
691 - updated the install.php web page with Paul Dugas's notes on
692 building RPM's from CVS
693 - fixed problem in tools/Makefile.am where bs11nread was included
694 in build, even if --with-boost was not specified
695 on ./configure command line
697 - changed format of Boost serialization file output from btool,
698 so that the database name is stored as the first line
700 - added tools/bs11nread.cc to read Boost serialization file data
702 - minor adjustments to r_message.h and r_timezone.h
703 - updated s11n-boost.h header to match record classes
705 - applied Time Zone parsing patches from Brian Edginton
706 - added Time Zones to list of supported parsers in btool.cc
708 - changed configure.ac to use bzip2 for "make dist".. thanks to
709 Paul Dugas for the tip
711 - committed Chris Burgess's update to the roadmap document
712 - applied Paul Dugas's x86-64 build patch, except the
713 tar.bz2/tar.gz change
714 - updated AUTHORS file
716 - fixed configure.ac's --with-boost option, so that without args,
717 it defaults to using --includedir and --libdir settings,
718 instead of hardcoding /usr/include and /usr/lib... this
719 should allow smarter compiling on 64 bit systems
720 - updated RPM spec file to use new --with-boost behaviour
721 - ahem, fixed configure.ac again... don't use --includedir and
722 --libdir, as those are install targets... oops.
723 Don't add path overrides at all if not specified.
725 - fixed locale issues in src/data.cc
726 - updated copyright statments for 2008
728 - applied wording correction patch to btool from Matt LaPlante
730 - changed hard coded databases names in btool to calls to
731 <recordclass>::GetDBName()
736 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
740 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
743 Release: version 0.11 - 2007/12/01
744 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
746 - fixed null pointer bug in Probe class (bug #1842407)
747 - added pause to maintainer release script
753 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
757 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
759 Release: version 0.10 - 2007/11/30
760 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
762 - added support to the usbwrap Match class to limit its
763 search by busname / devname
764 - added support to the Probe class to limit its search for
765 Blackberry devices to a given bus or device name
766 - added command line options to btool for the above Probe
767 bus/device names, and updated the man page
768 - updated the www docs with regard to the new usb_storage
769 behaviour and the new blacklist files... less
770 concern about berry_charge and usb_storage conflicts
771 - added bidentify tool and accompanying man page
772 - fixed bug in rpm maintenance script that used the wrong
773 spec file for opensuse
775 - added better error checking to breset
776 - commented the sleep() for the 8830
777 - added code to handle the race condition where usb_storage
778 claims the device before bcharge arrives on the scene,
779 by asking the kernel to detach the driver from
780 the Mass Storage interface... this change makes it
781 possible to run bcharge, moving from 0006 to 0004
782 to 0001 and back to 0004, all *while* usb_storage
784 - changed Probe class behaviour so that it will not throw an
785 exception on Device Busy (-EBUSY) but instead
786 log the error in an internal array and keep going.
787 This makes it possible to use btool and barrybackup
788 with two devices plugged in at the same time.
789 BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY NOTE: this changes initializaion
790 behaviour, but in practice, it should only
791 make applications look more capable, not less.
792 - updated btool to show errors logged by Probe
793 - added message to specify which PIN device is being used by btool
794 - added explanatory comments to udev rules files, about why
797 - added ClearHalt() calls to probe and controller classes, just
798 before any communication happens... the 8830 seems
801 - added usbwrap.cc:GetConfiguration()
802 - added code to check whether the configuration is the one
803 we require, before calling SetConfiguration()... and not
804 to call it if unnecessary. This allows us to run
805 at the same time as usb_storage.
806 Thanks to Martin Owens for not letting this issue go. :-)
807 - added sleep to bcharge, before calling usb_reset()... the
808 Blackberry 8830 behaves like a Pearl device in that
809 it has mass storage support, but behaves like a Classic
810 in that it resets itself... the usb_reset() seems
811 to reset it back to 0006. The sleep allows the device
812 to disappear via its own reset, and let usb_reset()
813 fail naturally on these devices.
814 This is not an ideal solution... mainly for testing.
816 - added modprobe/blacklist-berry_charge as per Simon Ruggier's
817 suggestion. Thanks also to Niels de Vos for a similar
819 - fixed udev rules to work on both old and new distros
820 Thanks to Duncan Mak for the bug report.
822 - fixed string comparison to use case insensitive compare in
824 - updated Debian package to include modprobe blacklist file
825 - updated rpm spec file to include modprobe blacklist file
826 - split the maintenance scripts into release and test, so
827 that release package builds can be done faster
829 - opensync plugin fixes:
830 - fixed memory leak in vBase::GetAttr()
831 - added support in vformat parser to parse "blocks"
832 and keep track of the hierarchy when
833 parsing an iCalendar, etc.
834 - added support for searching for attributes only
835 inside certain blocks (i.e. find first
836 DTSTART in VEVENT block, not VTIMEZONE block)
838 - fixed bug in Calendar::Clear, missing the Free / Class
839 member variables, leaving them uninitialized
840 - added examples/addcalendar.cc
841 - added more logging to the opensync plugin, logging the
842 ToBarry conversion results
843 - added code to force struct tm.tm_isdst to -1 before calling
845 - fixed typo in previous fix
847 - renamed ktrans and translate to bktrans and btranslate to avoid
848 file name clashes with libtranslate of Gnome
849 Closes bug #1812410 reported by Troy Engel.
854 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
858 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
859 - fixed missing default config file in the debian package for
861 Closes bug #1812224 reported by Ariel (adonatti).
862 - added debian dbg packages for tracing segfaults
863 - modified maintainer scripts so debug packages would reference
864 source code located in /usr/src/barry-0.9, etc.
866 Release: version 0.9 - 2007/10/12
867 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
869 - adjusted autosuspend disabling code in bcharge, based on new
870 information on how kernels 2.6.21 / 2.6.22 work.
871 See bcharge.cc for comments. If device/power/level or
872 device/power/autosuspend exist, charging should now work
873 without recompiling the kernel.
874 - updated website docs with autosuspend info
876 - large update to the doc/www web pages, moving some of the
877 information in README files to html format, so that it
878 is commonly available on the web
879 - added step in maintenance scripts to automatically build the
880 .html files in doc/www when making a tarball release
882 - added libopensync 0.22 version requirement to barry.spec file,
883 but it doesn't seem to work on OpenSuSE 10.2, where it's
886 - updated README to mention new tree build configure options
887 - fixed the configure scripts and makefiles so that when building
888 with custom CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables,
889 it doesn't break the full-tree build mode, when
890 using --enable-gui and/or --enable-opensync-plugin
891 - added config.h.in~ to buildgen.sh clean target
892 - converted Debian build scripts to use cdbs
893 - added opensync plugin binary package for Debian
894 - added "Getting Started" section to web pages, as well as an
895 explanatory document for various system requirements
896 - turned on opensync build in RPM maintainer scripts
898 - added filename to power/state error message in bcharge.cc
899 - adjusted maintainer scripts to automatically adjust barry.spec
900 for opensuse rpm builds
902 - fixed some of the release build scripts and added support for
903 automated opensuse 10.2 builds
904 - fixed build target to i386
905 - changed scripts to add to PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable instead
908 - added website docs to doc/www... these are out of date at the
909 moment, and hopefully by including them here, they
910 will be updated more frequently
912 - applied Simon Ruggier's build system patch that allowed a build
913 of all 3 components from the root directory and fixed the
914 configure scripts to support external build directories
915 - reordered clean commands in the buildgen.sh scripts, and removed
916 the INSTALL files, since they are auto-generated by autoconf
917 - removed extraneous buildgen.sh calls in maintainer scripts
918 - added Simon Ruggier to AUTHORS
919 - added explanatory note to 3 stage test build process in
922 - fixed Category handling in the Contact record class, to
923 parse the comma separated string into an array,
925 Note: this involves a change to the boost serialization
926 and will affect backward compatibility with
927 old serialization datafiles
928 - added Category to examples/addcontact.cc
929 - added Category support to the opensync plugin
931 - fixed wrong read/write in btool output (oops)
932 - added BadSize exception, and changed CheckSize() function
934 - changed backup GUI to catch BadSize exceptions on initial
935 connect, and try a reset if that error occurs, since
936 that likely means the device didn't shutdown properly
937 - fixed in opensync plugin:
938 - some vcard data contains types codes in capital letters,
939 so added lower case conversion routine
940 - changed the order of address lines, so that address1
941 is the street, address2 is the extended address,
942 and address3 is the PO Box. The Blackberry
943 doesn't seem to have any PO Box field.
945 - added -e endpoint override option to btool
946 - added status message to endpoint override
948 - added configure check for strnlen, and implementation for
949 systems that don't have it, or that have it implemented
950 incorrectly. Went a little paranoid here, since
951 AC_FUNC_STRNLEN doesn't set a define in config.h,
952 so I had to do it manually, and check in case autoconf
953 changes in the future... ugh. See src/strnlen.h for
955 - added code in probe.cc to fetch the device's description.
956 The description is now part of the probe results
957 along with the PIN. Updates to protocol.h, adding
958 a new attribute definition.
959 Thanks to Rick Scott for pointing out the code in
960 XmBlackberry where he implemented this first.
961 - fixed header dependency in record-internal.h
962 - updated the "required autoconf" version to 2.61 for root build
963 - moved nested structs out of the record classes that contain them,
964 in order to better support SWIG and Python
966 - changed bcharge to use getopt() for its argument processing
967 - added options -p and -s to bcharge, to adjust usb suspend
968 settings automatically where possible
969 - updated the udev rules to use the new bcharge settings
970 - updated the bcharge man page with the new arguments
972 - cleaned up Usb exception handling, moving libusb error code
973 processing into the Usb::Error exception class.
974 error.cc is now an empty shell
975 - added return codes to the Usb::Error exceptions
976 - removed aboutdialog.{h,cc} from the backup GUI since even
977 Debian stable now has up-to-date gtkmm libraries
978 - added more user friendly error message for the "device busy"
979 case, recommending 'rmmod usb_storage'.
981 - added better error checking to bcharge.cc
986 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
990 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
991 - removed usb_set_configuration() check from bcharge.cc, since
992 that may fail under normal operation, in this case
994 Release: version 0.8 - 2007/08/03
995 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
997 - moved Interface implementation to usbwrap.cc file
998 - added dout debugging messages to usbwrap.cc
999 - clarified unhandled packet error message in socket.cc
1000 - added temporary workaround in opensync-plugin environment's
1001 Reconnect(), for odd message seen on newer Blackberry
1003 - fixing issues with Brian Edginton's MessageRecord patch (2007/06/29)
1004 - fixed missing size check in message oriented ParseHeader()
1005 - fixed endian conversion issues (also found one pre-existing
1006 endian bug in the process)
1007 - moved message timestamp converter code to time.cc
1008 - added Barry version number to opensync plugin name
1009 - changed maintainer scripts and rpm.spec to use bzip2 instead of gzip
1010 - added opensync-plugin to configure script build
1011 - added -S option to btool, to list supported parsers and builders
1012 - slight change to opensync-plugin/buildgen.sh to cleanup config.h.in~
1013 - opensync-plugin/README update
1014 - added opensync-plugin/patches for others who may be building and
1015 testing the plugin with OpenSync 0.22
1016 - added debian package build scripts to maintainer/
1018 - added entry to doc/TroubleShooting.txt
1020 - added doc/TroubleShooting.txt
1023 - fixed bug in vcard.cc that was using the FN field
1024 for the broken-down name instead of N
1025 - added dbId and dbName to DatabaseSyncState
1026 - added Reconnect() functionality to BarryEnvironment class
1027 and moved connect logic out of barry_sync.cc
1028 - changed the batch commit functionality in barry_sync.cc
1029 to single-change-commit. Why? Because opensync
1030 0.22 groups all batch changes into one group
1031 and calls one batch commit function, even if you
1032 registered two. Moving to single change commit
1033 mode removes a chunk of unneccessary code
1034 from the plugin as well, and can in theory
1035 ease memory pressure in the library.
1036 - added FinishSync() to perform actions needed on successful
1038 - disconnect on successful sync completion, and reconnect,
1039 since the device's dirty flags don't seem to
1040 be updated until a disconnect occurs.
1042 - added ReadDataArray() to data.h, using an istream instead of
1044 - added raw data version of BuildField() to record-internal.h
1045 This is so that btool doesn't add extra null terminators
1046 to unknown data, when restoring with option -s
1047 - fixed bugs in r_contact.cc:
1048 - fixed bug that caused a LastName/FirstName swap
1049 if FirstName was empty and you wrote a contact
1050 record into the device.... First/Last Name
1051 fields are position sensitive, and the code
1052 was missing the empty FirstName case on writing
1053 - fixed bug in BuildFields() and Dump() where they
1054 were not updated to handle the new field
1055 table added for the postal address changes
1058 - changed the plugin config file, so it is possible to
1059 turn debug output on/off without recompiling
1060 - moved the standalone Map2Uid() function into
1061 the DatabaseSyncState class, and changed the
1062 code to produce "contact-#" and "calendar-#"
1063 UID strings, instead of just numbers
1064 - changed default PIN to -1, so that if the user doesn't
1065 configure properly, it will fail... this is a
1066 safety measure to avoid syncing with different
1067 devices and corrupting the cache/idmap...
1068 this should be fixed someday, to handle this
1070 On second thought... is this right? Perhaps
1071 it is better to fail if the PIN is not what
1072 is expected, so a user doesn't accidentally
1073 sync the wrong device and lose data.
1074 Actions to take on new PIN:
1075 - force slow_sync, or
1077 - incorporated the new VCardConverter code into the
1078 main barry_sync.cc plugin code
1079 - fixed bug that did not clear the devices dirty flags
1080 in the case where a sync only read data from it,
1082 - changed PIN error message number to hex
1084 - minor wording change in backup GUI prompt: "Backup working..." to
1085 "Backup in progress..."
1086 - renamed Contact class's Title field to JobTitle for clarity
1087 - added record function ParseFieldString(), which properly handles
1088 strings from the device that have multiple null terminators,
1089 and changed the record parsing code to use this new function
1090 - moved FullName() function from ldif.cc to r_contact.cc since it
1091 is generally useful in areas outside of LDIF processing
1092 - refactored postal addresses in the Contact record class into
1093 a new class called PostalAddress
1094 - renamed Address class in record.h to EmailAddress
1095 - moved Contact::GetPostalAddress() to record.cc as part of the
1096 new PostalAddress class and renamed it
1097 PostalAddress::GetLabel()
1099 - refactored vformat helpers into separate base class
1101 - added vCard converter class
1102 - commented out the code that skipped over the adding
1103 of empty attribute values and parameters,
1104 since VCARD depends on some of this behaviour
1105 - movified vformat.c:vformat_find_attribute() to take
1106 an extra nth argument, in order to search
1107 for multiple attributes with the same name...
1108 the way this is coded is a bit inefficient...
1109 but we're moving away from vformat when we move
1110 to OpenSync 0.3x / 0.40, so this is just temporary
1113 - added SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device" to example udev rules, in order
1114 to avoid running bcharge for each endpoint that is
1115 added by udev, when first plugged in. Running bcharge
1116 back-to-back multiple times can crash some
1120 - fixed ID mapping bug in the case of a non-numeric UID
1121 from syncing external -> Barry, and then the
1122 new Barry ID would look like a new change
1123 when syncing back from Barry -> external.
1124 - added support for slow sync
1125 - added clear() to idmap class
1126 - added vformat attr parameter extraction class
1127 - added more trace logging during vformat/Barry conversions
1128 - added Notification time support
1129 - handled "all day" vformat special case, when DTEND
1130 does not exist in a vformat data block
1131 - changed the min1900_t time conversion functions to handle
1132 the 0xffffffff special case, when notifications
1133 are turned off on a calendar event (src/time.cc)
1134 - also made the calendar data dump output clearer for
1135 disabled timestamps, and added debug output
1136 for the raw min1900 value, in case there are more
1137 special cases in the future
1139 - fixed null pointer access in opensync's HasMultipleVEvents()
1141 - upper management directive: revert all OpenSync 0.3x changes
1142 and proceed with OpenSync 0.22. Reverting the
1143 opensync-plugin/src tree to Barry 0.7 status.
1145 - reorganized exception and trace code in opensync plugin
1146 - added XmlToCalendar() function, based on unfinished opensync
1147 library API that is not yet finished... will be
1148 committed to opensync svn tree when complete
1149 - added OSyncXMLField logger to plugin trace class
1151 - applied email MessageRecord patch from Brian Edginton (thanks!)
1152 - updated Message::Dump() to output more valid mbox data...
1153 the goal is to be able to do:
1154 btool -d "Messages" > email.mbox
1156 - changed some TODO's to FIXME's to keep it grep-consistent
1157 - applied Folder support patch from Brian Edginton
1158 - fixed pedantic compile warnings, and changed order in src/Makefile.am
1159 - removed unneeded cast in src/r_folder.cc
1161 - minor adjustment to ctags building in buildgen.sh
1162 - applied patch from Brian Edginton for better boost detection
1164 - added boost usage message to btool -h output
1166 - more porting of OpenSync module to 0.30
1167 - added ctags build for opensync source tree to buildgen.sh
1169 - changed PKG_CONFIG_PATH setting in rpm script, so that systems
1170 like SuSE that have an extensive PKG_CONFIG_PATH
1171 in general use will not break on build
1172 - added PKG_CONFIG_PATH to debian script too, just in case :-)
1173 - added debian/changelog to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1174 - added comment to rpm/barry.spec regarding SuSE RPM builds
1176 - applied patch from Niels de Vos fixing debian package build
1178 - applied Brian Edginton's Saved Email Messages patch
1179 - updated r_saved_messages.cc comment to match header
1180 - added GetRecType()/GetUniqueId() to r_saved_messages.h, since
1181 SetIds() is already there
1182 - removed Address version of operator<<() from message related headers
1183 and moved into record.h
1184 - added std::hex to message related dumps, and changed output to
1186 - updated doc/CodingStyle.txt to cover switch() statements
1187 - opensync compiles again, with 0.30! (not functional yet)
1188 - moving closer to more modular and reusable plugin functions
1189 - updated release checklist for opensync version number
1191 - added doc/CodingStyle.txt... preliminary version
1193 - applied Brian Edginton's PIN message patch
1194 - changes to PIN message patch:
1195 - fixed missing backslash in src/Makefile.am
1196 - fixed tab alignment throughout
1197 - removed typedef from Address struct
1198 - added clear() to Address... might as well, if it it is
1199 going to be a standalone type
1200 - fixed missing comma in PINMessageFieldLinks table
1201 - changed MessageRecordId in PINMessage to load from a new
1202 uint32_t field in CommonField, instead of piggy
1203 backing on a field for other use
1204 - did some testing and found that PINMessage's MessageRecordId
1205 is the same as the RecordId given through the SetIds()
1206 API... but these Id's are duplicated in the protocol...
1207 RecordId is stored in the protocol header, while
1208 MessageRecordId is stored in the record it self as
1209 a common field... added RecType and RecordId to
1210 PIN Message so that we store both of these
1213 - added item to gui/TODO
1214 - applied Brian Edginton's s11n-boost.h patch
1216 - renamed template values to more consistent naming scheme
1217 - applied memos and tasks patch from Brian Edginton, slightly
1218 modified to split into the new separate files system
1219 - changes to memos and tasks classes:
1220 - reformatted the code to match coding style
1222 - added copyright notice
1223 - changed class to singular (Memo, not Memos)
1224 - placed in Barry namespace
1225 - added #ifdef header protectors
1226 - added new files to Makefile.am
1227 - added new r_*.h headers to record.h
1228 - added support for Memos and Tasks to tools/btool.cc, based on
1229 Brian Edginton's patch
1230 (currently commented out, for Boost library reasons):
1231 - added doc/CommitPolicy.txt
1234 - added ctags generation to buildgen.sh
1235 - applied record.{h,cc} fix patch from Brian Edginton
1239 - fixed broken formatting in above patch
1240 - refactored record parser classes into separate files for each
1241 - changed the ConvertHtoB<> template to inline, as it caused
1242 linker errors with the new file layout
1244 - fixed bug in Debian packaging that put util commands in
1245 /bin and /sbin instead of /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
1246 - commited byteswap.h replacement code from gm2net
1248 - removed unneeded debug messages on stdout
1249 - changed the default for debug output to "off"
1250 and added a command line option to turn
1251 it on if necessary (--debug-output)
1252 - command line option --help now also works
1253 - fixed bug in Calendar class where it didn't initialize
1254 RecType properly... and cleaned up other RecType
1255 code to use the GetDefaultRecType() functions,
1256 localizing the constants in one place
1258 - applied patches from Brian Edginton, parsing more
1259 fields in Contact and Calendar records
1260 - added Brian Edginton to AUTHORS
1261 - reformatted record.{h,cc} to match the rest of the code,
1262 removed commented out code, and removed mention of
1263 Outlook from the comments.
1264 - updated udev/10-blackberry.rules.Debian for Debian Etch
1265 - updated debian/rules to use new udev rules file
1266 - removed debian/postinst, as stable versions of Debian now
1267 have a recent udev, and don't need the special handling
1268 - updated Debian build scripts to build separate packages:
1273 - added menu support to Debian barrybackup-gui package
1274 - made the buttons bigger in the backup GUI, as they were too
1275 small on Debian Etch
1277 - more progress in porting to opensync 0.30, heavily
1278 based on the example plugin in the opensync
1279 svn tree... this is a work in progress, and so far
1283 - partial porting to opensync 0.30 (in progress!)
1284 - fixed bug in sync_done where it reported context error
1285 and then success afterward
1286 - checking in new INSTALL files based on Etch's autoconf run
1287 - added item to gui's todo list
1288 - bumped version numbers to 0.8 in:
1292 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1296 Release: version 0.7 - 2007/05/02
1297 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1299 - added rpm building to maintainer/release scripts
1300 - added "HEAD" feature to tarball creation script, for easier testing
1301 - updated maintainer/README
1302 - updated maintainer/release.sh to use new HEAD feature too
1304 - added pppob to rpm barry.spec
1305 - bumped release number in barry.spec
1308 - fixed size check bugs (strlen() == 0 when empty)
1309 - finished refactoring calendar conversion routines
1310 - started timezone parsing, but this may go away
1311 if we use opensync 0.30's time functions and
1313 - added development note to README
1315 - updated README and opensync-plugin/README with more current
1318 - refactored some calendar conversion routines
1319 - added Barry->vCalendar conversion for recurring appointments
1322 - removed some unneeded trace logs
1323 - fixed VEventConverter constructor bug, with uninitialized
1325 - eased up the requirement that every calendar event
1326 must have a summary... defaults to "<blank subject>"
1328 - added more VCALENDAR fields to match Barry::Calendar record
1329 - fixed case sensitive compares in vformat.c
1331 - opensync module work:
1332 - added id map class to map string uid's from OpenSync to
1333 numeric ID's from the Blackberry
1334 - fixed bug in CommitChange() where it was still using
1335 a hard coded calendar record state table
1336 - added lots of logging throughout
1337 - fixed bug where newly added records didn't use the
1338 change object's uid, but created a new ID,
1339 causing another sync on the next run
1340 i.e. (CommitData_t was missing an argument)
1341 - fixed bug where uninitialized notification time was
1342 written to the Blackberry
1343 - more opensync module work:
1344 - refactored the environment class into another subclass
1345 called DatabaseSyncState, and moved some stand-
1346 alone functions from barry_sync.cc into
1347 the environment classes
1348 - added a tagged constructor to the trace class
1349 - fixed idmap::Load() to clear map before loading
1351 - renamed barry-config to barry-sync, the default configuration
1352 file for the opensync module... and filled it with
1353 a sample configuration
1354 - added code to update the calendar cache, and write it to disk
1355 on success (opensync module)
1356 - added code to clear dirty flags in the device (opensync module)
1357 - allowed comments in the config file
1358 - added vformat.c from libopensync 0.22, since the vformat
1359 routines are not available from the plugin side
1362 - added -d switch to bcharge to switch back from 0001 to 0004 mode,
1363 changed the auto-detection logic to ignore iProduct and
1364 only use idProduct, and updated man page
1365 - updated breset to recognize the Pearl in 00004 mode as well
1366 - changed src/probe.cc logic to assume that the second endpoint
1367 pair is the one needed for database communication, instead
1368 of doing a reverse search from the end... newer Pearls
1369 in Dual mode seem to have at least 3 or 4 endpoint pairs,
1370 and the old search didn't always work
1371 - applied sourceforge patch #1696884 from Peter Silva, updating
1372 the Debian build for Etch, and including all files in one deb
1373 - added Peter Silva to AUTHORS file
1374 - uncommented the "make distclean" in debian/rules, and removed
1375 the reliance on /tmp when installing 99-barry-perms.rules
1376 - applied bb_task_format.txt patch from Peter Silva
1377 - fixed each misspelling of "recurrance" to "recurrence"
1378 - tweaked src/probe.cc again for paranoia's sake... start at
1379 offset 1 if more than 1 endpoint pair, otherwise start
1381 - split up opensync module into multiple source files, and started
1382 using the opensync vformat routines for parsing and building
1383 the vevent20 data (experimental)
1385 - more incremental work on the opensync plugin, adding ADDED
1386 and MODIFIED functionality... (experimental!)
1388 - added code to dump extra descriptors during device discovery,
1390 - bumped opensync version number in configure.ac, and made
1391 the configure scripts more consistent with the rest
1393 - fixed printf-format size bug in opensync module
1395 - applied patch from Niels de Vos, fixing deb udev rules for Pearl
1397 - fixed extra space bug in LDIF output (added space when creating
1398 FullName, even if there was no last name)
1399 - fixed Address Book record parsing in Contact class... the
1400 Blackberry database uses field id 0x20 for both the
1401 first and last names, and if only a last name exists,
1402 the first name will be empty. Fixed parser to handle
1403 this special case, without relying on string length.
1404 Thanks to Troy Engel for reporting above two LDIF bugs.
1405 - added a few more constants to bcharge.cc
1406 - renamed opensync's configure.in to configure.ac
1408 - fixed bcharge to avoid endless reset loop... oops
1410 - reorganized bcharge.cc to make it possible to switch between
1411 Pearl modes 0004 and 0001
1412 - added flag to BadPassword exception class, to signal whether
1413 the library considers the device "out of retries" or not
1414 - updated socket.cc for new BadPassword exception
1415 - added special case to Controller class destructor to reset the
1416 device if being destroyed in a half-open state... this is
1417 a temporary fix until we understand how to handle
1418 the "already open" message we get when opening the Desktop
1420 - added password prompt dialog to the backup GUI
1421 - fixed possible memory leak in GUI's DeviceInterface::Connect()
1423 - committed Troy Engel's bbrules_mass_symlinks.patch, fixing
1424 udev rules for the Pearl
1425 - updated 10-blackberry.rules.Debian to match 10-blackberry.rules's
1427 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to generate all required
1428 RPM's... Thank you! Notes in the README taken from
1429 the sourceforge tracker entry containing the patch.
1430 - added libusb lib flags to tools/ and examples/ makefiles,
1431 and tweaked configure.ac with a better default,
1432 to build cleanly on RHEL 4
1433 - modified rpm/barry.spec:
1434 - does not create doc-only barry base package anymore
1435 - fixed "barry-backup" typo
1436 - removed the patch step, as version 0.7 shouldn't need it
1437 - added license file to each package
1438 - commented out console perms scripts, pending mailing list
1441 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to fix RHEL4 compile issues
1442 - fixed 80 column wrapping error in barry.spec, thanks to Troy Engel
1444 - applied Troy Engel's udev permissions patch for Redhat/Fedora
1445 systems, which automatically set the ownership of a
1446 newly plugged in device to the currently logged in console
1448 - added udev/README to document what all those files are for...
1449 part of the text comes from the sourceforge comment
1450 on the above udev permissions patch from Troy Engel
1451 - uncommented the console perms scripts for rpm/barry.spec
1452 - added libglademm-2.4 to gui/README's dependency list
1453 - made usbwrap.* calls more threadsafe
1454 - added Usb::Timeout exception for timeout errors
1455 - added preliminary UsbSerData support to library for GPRS modem
1456 functionality, using Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry's serdata.c
1458 - added overloaded Socket::Send() for sending without receiving
1459 - added preliminary pppob command line tool
1465 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1468 - build system tweaks for opensync-plugin, and added a buildgen.sh
1470 - added better debug messages in probe.cc and usbwrap.cc's
1471 device discovery code
1472 - changed error handling for null interface->altsetting pointers
1473 when doing device discovery in usbwrap.cc. Seems that
1474 some devices report a higher number in bNumInterfaces
1475 than are really available... in this case, let's
1476 just ignore the missing data and assume success
1477 - applied udev script patch #1663986 from Troy Engel
1478 - applied barry-bcharge.spec patch #1672178 from Troy Engel
1479 - ReleaseChecklist update
1480 - added rpm/README based on Troy Engel's patch notes
1481 - updated new barry-bcharge.spec for version 0.7, removing patch
1484 Release: version 0.6 - 2007/02/28
1485 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1487 - fixed size checks for device database records larger than 64K
1488 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
1489 - added initial release maintainer scripts
1490 - fixed odd backup success message in GUI when doing a backup with
1491 no databases selected in configuration
1492 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
1493 - added udev permissions file patch from Michael Brown
1494 - added Michael Brown to AUTHORS
1495 - updated README, gui/README, and doc/USB-capture.txt
1496 - added -o command line switch to bcharge.cc, and updated man page
1498 - changed library behaviour so it only turns on libusb debug output
1499 if in data dump mode. In btool, -v controls this output.
1500 - minor stream formatting fix in btool
1501 - added OpenSSL dependency to build for password hash support
1502 - made debug dout() output conditional on Init() flag... In btool,
1503 -v now controls this as well
1504 - reverse engineered more of the initial probe packets, and
1505 implemented probing in struct based code... changes include:
1506 - added support for "attribute fetch" packets, used at
1507 the beginning of USB conversations
1508 - defined object/attribute id codes for the PIN number
1509 - made Protocol::SocketCommand more robust, and implemented
1510 its sequence number behaviour
1511 - moved ModeSelectCommand into SocketCommand, as it is a
1512 socket 0 level command
1513 - added initial protocol struct: PasswordChallenge
1514 - renamed Barry::Packet to DBPacket
1515 - added ZeroPacket for socket 0 packet creation and analysis
1516 - Barry::Packet is now the base class for the above
1517 - implemented socket 0 behaviour in socket.cc
1518 - changed return values for Send/Receive/Packet/NextRecord
1519 members in the Socket class from bool to void, as they
1520 don't generate errors themselves, but only can
1521 have an error if Usb::Device throws an exception.
1522 Cleaned up all code that called these members as well.
1523 - removed "last status" from Socket class as it was unused
1524 - updated probe.cc to use new socket 0 implementation
1525 - removed two of the hard coded packet handshakes in favour
1527 - updated controller.cc:
1528 - uses new socket 0 implementation
1529 - removed "flag" hack when opening sockets and
1530 selecting modes, as it should use the
1531 socket 0 sequence number
1532 - added initial, incomplete prototype header for the C API
1533 - updated some .cvsignore files
1535 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt, adding rpm spec file
1536 - added the following to ZeroPacket:
1541 - moved Command() to base Packet class
1542 - added comments to protostructs.h and size constants for the
1543 new PasswordChallenge struct
1544 - added password support to Socket and Controller classes
1545 Thanks to Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry for the openssl
1546 password hashing logic.
1547 - updated btool to use new password support, and updated its man page
1549 - updated Doxygen input files and version, and added to ReleaseChecklist
1550 - fixed btool PIN output for LDIF mode, now commented in output
1551 - major LDIF overhaul:
1552 - split LDIF specific code out of the record class and
1554 - fixed "full name" behaviour that added an extra space
1555 in dn attributes, as reported by Troy Engel
1556 - added support for mapping of LDIF attributes to Barry
1558 - fixed base64 handling, so attributes are only so encoded
1560 - fixed base64 attribute reading inconsistency... some
1561 notes fields were missed in old version if not
1563 - added support for specifying alternate attribute for
1564 constructing a FQDN, instead of just "cn"
1565 - updated btool and upldif to use new features
1566 - large update to btool manpage
1567 - fixed initialization bug in Contact constructor (missed RecType)
1569 - added ktrans.cc to make reading of kernel usbfs_snoop logs easier
1570 - removed commented code from translate.cc
1571 - added Pearl handshake support to bcharge.cc, which resets the
1572 Pearl so that the vendor specific 0xFF class exists.
1573 This should allow use of btool on the Pearl.
1574 - added Data::AppendHexString to data.cc
1575 - added better probing support for the Pearl, so it detects the
1576 Product ID 0x0004 mode, and does a search for class 0xFF
1577 instead of hardcoding it.
1579 - applied README patch from Ian Darwin
1580 - minor tweaks to README
1581 - added missing errno.h header in src/usbwrap.cc for AMD64
1582 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting the bug.
1583 - tightened up size checks in Data::ReleaseBuffer()
1584 - stable libusb *does* return the actual length of the USB packet...
1585 fixed this in usbwrap.cc to set the actual size of read data,
1586 and removed the size hacks elsewhere in the code:
1587 probe.cc, protocol.cc, socket.cc, usbwrap.cc
1589 - added proper return codes for error conditions in btool.cc
1590 - clarified some stream output code in the library, for hex/dec numbers
1591 - removed old, non-working connect.cc test program
1592 - added iomanip to debug.h
1593 - changed usbwrap to call libusb again if EINTR and EAGAIN
1594 This should fix one of the OpenBSD issues
1597 - fixed bug in barrybackup GUI that didn't create the target path
1598 if the user didn't do Edit | Config first.
1599 Thanks to Ian Darwin for reporting the bug.
1600 - applied gui/src/ConfigFile.cc header fix patch for OpenBSD
1603 - added initial btool.1 man page from Ian Darwin
1604 - updated man/Makefile.am for new btool.1
1606 - applied btool -h help clarification patch from Ian Darwin
1608 - reworked exception hierarchy, so applications can handle all
1609 Barry related exceptions, including Usb errors, with
1610 one base class: Barry::Error
1611 - fixed all the ripple changes this caused throughout the codebase
1612 - added BadPassword exception
1618 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1619 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1620 - added usb-level breset.cc command line tool
1621 - fixed bug in gui/src/tarfile.* for systems where
1622 sizeof(int) != sizeof(void*)
1623 - TarFile class now uses a plugin style for the compression
1624 operations, to allow for threadsafe versions if needed
1626 - also fixed leaked file handle bug in open_compressed()
1627 - Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this for 64bit systems
1628 - minor signed comparison fixes in the library
1629 - added better protocol data dumping code in probe.cc
1630 - added Usb::Device::BulkDrain(), to prevent Barry from hanging
1631 due to pending reads
1633 Release: version 0.5 - 2007/01/26
1634 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1636 - added missing errno.h header to gui/src/util.cc
1637 - lots more endian fixes after testing on iMac
1638 - iostream output size fixes
1639 - added option to btool to reset the device via software
1640 - beefed up exception handling in barrybackup
1641 - checked in opensync work-in-progress: trace logging, pointer bugfix
1642 this is still experimental
1643 - added aboutdialog.* files from gtkmm24 2.10.6, so we have a dialog
1644 class for systems running older versions of gtkmm, like
1646 - uncommented the about box menu handler
1647 - added "cleanall" option to root buildgen.sh script
1648 - update ReleaseChecklist.txt
1649 - removed CVS auto-history strings from aboutdialog.*
1651 - found a link between the unknown field in tagged protocol headers
1652 and the unknown field in RecordStateTable entries. This
1653 field matters when uploading certain databases, such as
1654 Browser Options. It is unknown what this field really
1655 means, but we're calling it RecType. Updated the API
1656 to use this in all parser objects and builder objects
1657 and record objects that use it.
1658 - changed some uses of uint64_t to uint32_t, in Contact and
1659 Calendar record objects... unique IDs only seem to be
1661 - added new static function to record classes: GetDefaultRecType()
1662 This returns the default rectype that should work
1663 for that record. Ideally this should be retrieved from
1664 the device, but in the case where a database has no
1665 records, this info would be good to know.
1666 - updated convenience template function Controller::AddRecordByType()
1667 to use GetDefaultRecType()
1668 - documented the recurrence data and how to use it in Calendar objects
1669 - added data debug output for incoming USB packets in the
1670 socket class... when we ported to the stable libusb
1671 we lost some of the verbose output... this should get it
1672 back. (In the official release, you need to uncomment
1673 ddout() in debug.h for the full blast of debug output).
1674 - backup GUI updates:
1675 - changed error_done signal into a pure error signal,
1676 and changed the logic so the restore continues
1677 even if there was a protocol error on one database
1678 - changed status bar messages to show what's happening
1679 i.e. Backup or Restore
1680 - default to not restore the "Handheld Agent" database as
1681 it appears to be read-only on the device
1682 - added temporary Restore & Backup mode for debugging
1683 - added extra hyphen to backup files to show date/time better
1684 - updated GUI to save and restore the new RecType field
1685 supported now by the library
1687 - added future considerations to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1688 - applied big endian patch from Jonathan Hudson
1690 - removed endian.h include from barry.h, since applications
1691 using the library should not care about endianness
1692 - hard coded the path to config.h in endian.h
1693 so that endian.h never makes it into the final
1695 - removed DEFAULT_INCLUDES setting from src/Makefile.am
1697 - removed config.h dependency in btool.cc and used library
1698 Version call instead
1699 - added big/little endian text to the Barry::Version call
1701 - fixed install location of bcharge when building with ./configure;
1702 now goes to sbin/ for both source compile and binary packages
1703 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this bug.
1705 - added smarter timeout values to controller, and allowed
1706 timeout overrides in the packet, socket, and usbwrap code...
1707 extra timeouts are needed for erasing databases for
1709 - added an explicit DataDumpParser class to btool.cc, as the
1710 library doesn't always have extreme verbose debugging on...
1711 this makes sure anyone can always get raw database packets
1712 through btool, for development
1713 - added thread callback signals for error finishes and erase_db
1714 operations, so the GUI is updated properly
1715 - more GUI cleanups (status bar updates, etc)
1716 - finished implementation of GUI restore
1717 - fixed gtkmm/glibmm exception handling when the exceptions
1718 occur in sigc signal handlers... in that case,
1719 exceptions need to be handled with
1720 Glib::add_exception_handler()
1721 - added filename-only reading support to TarFile class
1722 - added pending gui/TODO items
1724 - backup GUI now properly shows progress
1725 - the buttons become insensitive when backup is busy
1726 - refactored directory check code, and added mkdir check
1727 when to the backup setup (so the directory exists
1728 when we try to write to it)
1729 - updated code to use Barry::Data in new namespace
1731 - moved Data class into Barry namespace
1733 - updated copyright dates for the new year
1734 - clarified exception message in controller.cc
1735 - fixed pointer initialization bug in controller.cc
1736 - added documentation comments to parser.h and builder.h
1737 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt
1739 - changed Barry library configure scripts to make better
1740 use of pkg-config for autodetecting dependencies
1741 - added initial Barry Backup GUI (gui/ directory), capable of making
1742 backups only at this point
1744 - added doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1745 - added version API, returning version number and string
1746 - added Troy Engel to AUTHORS
1747 - added special case to bcharge.cc for the Blackberry Pearl,
1748 which doesn't reset itself after the charge handshake
1749 Thanks to Troy Engel for testing.
1751 - added pkg-config support for the library (libbarry-0.pc.in)
1752 - fixed compile error on g++ 3.3 systems (missing stdint.h
1754 - fixed protocol hang at end of Controller operation... in
1755 controller destructor, it was deleting the USB interface
1756 before closing the socket at the BlackBerry level, thereby
1757 leaving the device in Desktop mode
1759 - support the newer udev packages on Ubuntu, which need slightly
1761 - modified bcharge.cc to search for Pearl devices too.
1763 - added Pearl product ID to probe code, but likely not functional
1764 yet until we find someone able to get a USB capture for us
1766 - version bump in configure.ac and src/Makefile.am
1768 Release: version 0.4 - 2006/12/29
1769 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1771 - added bcharge.cc to the tools/ directory (whoohoo!)
1772 - added initial release version of rpm/barry.spec (aka bcharge.spec)
1773 This begins the barry binary release, currently only
1774 including the bcharge utility, but possibly more in
1775 the future. Future binary packages will likely include
1776 libbarry, libbarry-devel, etc, which barry will then
1778 - added udev rule script for BlackBerry devices
1779 - added man/ directory and bcharge.1 manpage
1780 - added debian/ directory for building deb packages, with initial
1782 - added rpm/make-rpm-tarball.sh for building RPMs
1783 - split out technical docs into separate libbarry.docs file for
1784 a future Debian install
1785 - added more cleaning to buildgen.sh
1786 - added new udev rule file for Debian stable
1787 - hardcoded g++ to 3.3 in debian/rules as I have multiple versions
1788 on my system and need to compile releases with stable
1790 - ported Barry to use the stable branch of libusb
1791 NOTE: no longer depends on the devel libusb tarball!

1868 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1870 - fixed casting error in opensync module
1871 - minor updates to documentation to prepare for release
1873 - added stdint.h to parser.h for uint32_t. Thanks Ron Gage for
1876 - large refactoring of the packet parsing and building code,
1877 splitting the code into 3 groups:
1878 - record: handles record specific parsing and building...
1879 this is mostly subfields with CommonField structs
1880 as their headers, but sometimes has a specific
1881 header of its own, in the case of email
1882 Note: email's header is as yet undecoded.
1883 Record does not know the details of the packet
1884 formats, only the formats of its own record data.
1885 - packet: handles building of complete command packets
1886 and handles parsing of commonly used header values,
1887 providing an API for it... packet does not know
1888 the record format details, but does know the
1889 details of each Database Operation (protocol.h)
1891 So far, it seems that there is a real separation
1892 of operation formats and record formats, with the
1893 record formats being the same even with different
1894 database operation codes (GET_RECORDS /
1895 OLD_GET_RECORDS), which was not confirmed before.
1896 See the header size of the email record after
1898 - controller: handles device state, and the management of
1899 sockets, commands, and checking for response values.
1900 The Controller object does not know the format
1901 of either the record or the packet it is sending,
1902 but does know the protocol handshake logic used
1903 to talk to the device.
1904 - implemented SetRecord (SET_RECORD_BY_INDEX)... syncing, here
1906 - spelling correction in opensync-plugin/AUTHORS
1908 - added sample hotplug scripts

1910 - added src/endian.h... still need to add configure support to
1911 handle non-little-endian machines
1912 - added exception handler in opensync plugin commit_change()
1913 - removed the device reset code in probe.cc, as resetting a device
1914 can renumber the devices in /proc on kernel 2.4.x,
1915 and cause a failure to reach the device...
1916 FIXME - this should be changed someday to reset if probing
1917 fails, and restart the probe on reset, as sometimes
1918 the blackberry devices respond differently when not reset
1919 Ideally, the probe protocol should be properly reverse
1921 - added support for retrieving record state table, which is needed
1923 - added support for retrieving, deleting, and clearing the dirty
1924 flags of individual blackberry device records

1931 - removed slow sync functions for now
1933 - added quick "install" makefile target, to src/install by default
1934 - added static library target... this is temporary until autoconf
1935 stuff is added properly... needed for the opensync plugin
1936 - documented in comments that Barry::BError is intended to be
1937 the base classes for all exceptions
1938 - added first round of implementation of an opensync plugin, based
1939 on the example plugin code from the opensync sources

1953 - old and new unique ID (UID)
1955 - old and new description
1957 - bes domain / domain
1958 - date change in legal.txt
1959 - added initial parsing of ServiceBook field 0x09, and calling it
1960 ServiceBookConfig for now, for lack of a better name
1961 - added parsing for ServiceBook field 0x02 on 72xx Blackberries...
1962 seems to be a name or description, but doesn't appear
1963 in the device's own GUI... called "Hidden Name" for now
1965 - added ServiceBook record class and parser code, based on some
1966 of Ron Gage's reverse engineering... code is by Chris Frey
1967 - added AUTHORS file
1968 - fixed the libusb set_configuration/claim_interface order
1969 bug in controller.{h,cc}... already fixed in probe,
1970 but not controller. Thanks Ron Gage for finding this.

2020 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
2021 throw exception in controller.cc
2022 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
2023 contact data to the device, it may be important to write
2024 group link items last, since they reference other contacts...
2025 This needs to be tested, and if not required, removed.

2071 02a2a3cc?hl=en#5714701b02a2a3cc
2072 - changed headers so that any low level protocol-specific sizes and
2073 structs are completely hidden in the library...
2074 this adds library-only header: protostructs.h

2099 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
2100 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
2101 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
2102 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
2103 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
2104 Observed maximum blank count: 1
2105 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
2106 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
2107 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
2108 seem to need more time...)
2109 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
2110 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
2111 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
2112 with Python, if used(?)
2113 - added Message class for Email records
2114 - removed the "Get*" database functions and replaced with
2115 general LoadDatabase() call, which loads any database

2148 from the Command Table
2149 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
2150 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
2151 the Cassis spec more closely
2152 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing

2154 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
2157 - added Doxyfile to the project
2159 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
2160 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
2161 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent

2169 less buffer than data copied
2170 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
2171 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
2172 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
2173 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
2175 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
2176 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
2178 - implemented socket::Close()
2179 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0

2190 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
2191 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
2192 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
2194 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
2195 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
2196 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
2197 - regular debug output
2198 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
2199 syslog someday, and never turned off)
2200 - raw data dump output
2201 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
2202 numbers into english (limited success)
2203 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
2204 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
2205 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
2206 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
2207 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
2208 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
2209 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
2210 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
2211 for socket 0 operations.
2212 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
2216 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
2217 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
2218 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
2219 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
