12 support of the template Controller functions
13 - fleshed out DatabaseDatabase::GetDBNumber() and GetDBName(),
14 returning errors properly
15 - documented sample btool.cc code better, and added example
16 of Controller template member usage
17 2006/03/29
18 - copyright dates updated for 2006
19 2006/01/05
20 - backed out update to latest libusb DEVEL tree, since it is buggy.
21 Stick with libusb 2005/11/26
22 2005/12/30
23 - added clean target to convenience Makefile
24 - added Boost to list of dependencies in README
25 - fixed minor compile warnings in base64.cc
26 - fixed new USB discovery code, and changed endpoint usage to use
27 it, instead of the READ_ENDPOINT and WRITE_ENDPOINT
28 constants... constants are now removed
29 common.h, controller.cc, probe.cc, probe.h, usbwrap.cc
30 - added ClearHalt() to Usb::Device (usbwrap.cc)
31 - updated usbwrap.h to match latest libusb CVS devel tree

48 - added return_code field to DBAccess struct, for error checking
49 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
50 throw exception in controller.cc
51 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
52 contact data to the device, it may be important to write
53 group link items last, since they reference other contacts...
54 This needs to be tested, and if not required, removed.
55 - added GROUP_FLAG field code to Contact parser class
56 - fixed offset bug in Contact and Calendar Build() functions

66 - parser code now accepts an offset, to govern start of record data
67 - changed Data sizes from int to size_t and removed casts
68 - removed unneeded Parser::GetHeaderSize() (new protostructs make

76 required when uploaded packet size is a multiple of 0x40,
77 a special 3 byte size packet is sent
78 - moved some record class variables to public: so they can be
79 properly serialized
80 - fixed variable name but in RecordBuilder template

100 02a2a3cc?hl=en#5714701b02a2a3cc
101 - changed headers so that any low level protocol-specific sizes and
102 structs are completely hidden in the library...
103 this adds library-only header: protostructs.h
105 Release: version 0.0.1 - 2005/11/25
106 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
107 2005/11/25

127 2005/11/19
128 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
129 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
130 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
131 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
132 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
133 Observed maximum blank count: 1
134 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
135 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
136 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
137 seem to need more time...)
138 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
139 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
140 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
141 with Python, if used(?)
142 - added Message class for Email records
143 - removed the "Get*" database functions and replaced with
144 general LoadDatabase() call, which loads any database
145 available, and parses it with a Parser object
146 - added GetDBID() for searching for database numbers via name
147 - added test code to retrieve and display all email
148 - cleaned up comments

155 store object pointers
156 - added doxygen docs
157 - added header comments to convo.awk script
158 - removed Test() function in Controller object, and made class
159 better suited to its general API purpose
160 - changed OpenMode() so it loads command table and DBDB... it is now
161 a public API function
162 - moved Controller test code to btool.cc and made tool more
163 generically useful... can now download any DB by name on
164 the command line
165 - added mode checks to Controller
166 - added -t and -d command line options to btool
167 - added base64 routines from John Walker / Fourmilab and Citadel/UX
168 - converted base64 routines into an API, instead of hardcoded
169 file based
170 2005/11/18
171 - changed project name to Barry, including namespaces
172 - renamed sbcommon.* to common.*
173 - increased USB default timeout to 2 seconds
174 - fixed formatting bug in Data operator<< output
175 - cleaned up the protocol packet structs, getting rid of the
176 confusing param/simple split... param is now the tableCmd
177 from the Command Table
178 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
179 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
180 the Cassis spec more closely
181 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing
182 - fixed Socket::Close() so on error, socket flags are reset.
183 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
184 destructors
185 2005/11/17
186 - added Doxyfile to the project
187 - tuned Makefile
188 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
189 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
190 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent
191 data transfers.
192 - added Command Table parsing and protocol support
193 Blackberry class, and CommandTable record class
194 - added Database database parsing and protocol support
195 Blackberry class and DatabaseDatabase record class
196 - added Address book retrieval support - dumps data to stdout for now
197 - fixed bug in CopyOnWrite mode in Data class, where could allocate
198 less buffer than data copied
199 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
200 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
201 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
202 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
203 data
204 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
205 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
206 saved
207 - implemented socket::Close()
208 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0
209 - added Socket::NextRecord() for multiple record data transfers
210 - fixed input handling bug in translate.cc
211 2005/11/11
212 - added .cvsignore files to project
213 - added README notes to document the source architecture
214 - added dbsetup data script, which shows how to get into database
215 mode, using the RIM Desktop mode, and open a socket
216 - added blackberry.{h,cc} class
217 - added command line parameters to bbtool.cc
218 -l = list only
219 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
220 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
221 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
222 results
223 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
224 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
225 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
226 - regular debug output
227 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
228 syslog someday, and never turned off)
229 - raw data dump output
230 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
231 numbers into english (limited success)
232 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
233 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
234 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
235 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
236 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
237 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
238 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
239 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
240 for socket 0 operations.
241 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
242 MAKE_PACKET()
243 COMMAND()
244 IS_COMMAND()
245 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
246 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
247 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
248 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
249 2005/10/20
250 - syncberry tree started
