1 Release: version 0.15 - 2009/01/??
2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 - clarified bjavaloader save behaviour
5 - updated bjavaloader man page
6 - added maintainer/build as exception for test/buildtest.sh
8 - pulled from Josh Kropf: 9b63a99867b3314b8d42212cac05a6f28860d37b
9 - saving large modules in pkzip format
10 - cleaned up StartStream function; use JLPacket instance
11 - refactored SendStream; use JLPacket instance and use simple
12 function for seeking to next cod file in input stream
13 - made following changes to Josh Kropf's patches
14 - Added CODFILE_TYPE_SIMPLE check back in
15 - Minor change of c_str() to data() where a null terminator
17 - Fixed unlikely buffer overflow in m_javaloader.cc
18 Goal: never trust outside sources of
19 information (including that from the device) when
20 managing our own buffers.
21 - Removed CodFile forward declaration, since class does not
23 - Fixed typo in configure.ac, and made missing zlib warning
25 - Added clarifying comment to CodFileBuilder
26 - Fixed potential reference bug in CodFileBuilder constructor
27 It is possible that the const std::string& passed
28 into the constructor is a temporary, so make a copy
29 of it instead of just holding a reference.
30 - Removed multi-unget call in cod.cc -- only one unget() is
31 guaranteed in C++. It appears that the unget is
32 unnecessary, since the following code seeks to end
33 and back to beginning anyway.
34 - Added copyright line for Josh Kropf in cod.cc and
36 - Fixed incorrect zlib check, since zlib doesn't support
37 pkg-config on most systems yet. Changed it to
38 use AC_CHECK_LIB, and added a --with-zlib configure
39 option which will cause configure to halt if
40 zlib is not available. Added --with-zlib to
41 binary package builds, and to build test script.
42 - added zlib to rpm and deb build requirements list
44 - updated USB capture logs archive page with new logs from Josh Kropf
45 - applied as patch Josh Kropf's annotated javaloader-reset.txt log
46 - added note about windows registry keys to USB-capture.txt
48 - applied Josh Kropf's patch adding support for forced erase and
49 load while module in use, properly handling when the
50 device requests a reset
52 - applied Nicolas Vivien's RecordId patch for Contact class...
53 this updates Barry to deal with the new record ID behaviour
56 - removed unneeded call to .c_str() in EmailAddress stream operator
57 - added support for Calendar fields: Organizer, Accepted, Invited
58 - reorganized the udev/ script directory, based on distro,
59 and added a specific rules file for openSUSE 11.1
60 - updated Debian and RPM binary scripts to point to correct udev files
62 - applied Nicolas Vivien's patch to fix the timeout issue on the
65 - applied Josh Kropf's save module patch
66 - minor whitespace fixes
67 - removed unneeded exception (fstream closes files
68 automatically on exit of scope, or exception)
69 - fixed compile error with variable sized array...
70 replaced with std::vector<> instead of memcpy,
71 in JavaLoader::SaveData()
72 - commented out an unused variable
74 - commented out AT+CREG? in barry-rogers.chat, since it causes some
75 Blackberry devices to reboot
76 - applied Josh Kropf's eventlog and clear eventlog patches
77 - capitalized JLEventlogEntry fields, to match other
79 - use constant when parsing entry
81 - sweeping cleanup of record classes and clarified all constant
82 conversions i.e. whenever converting between a protocol
83 constant and an API constant, do it through a function,
84 in case the constants change on the Blackberry side
86 - applied patch of binary VSM file from Robert Yaklin
88 - moved Nicolas Vivien's codfile code into library class API
89 - this change avoids having packed structs exposed in
90 installable header files, and gives the library
91 user an easy way to work with COD files
93 - added JavaLoader::LoadApp(CodFile&)
94 - cleaned up bjavaloader to use new API
95 - moved codfile_*_t structs to internal header
96 - also fixed command line status output when exceptions
97 are caught (unrelated fix)
98 - added / updated manpages: bfuse, bjavaloader, btool
99 - added fuse to build dependencies for rpm and deb packages
100 - updated web docs, adding libfuse to dependencies page
101 - added libiconv as well
103 - applied screenshot and zsh patch from Nicolas Vivien
104 His git log, as posted to the mailing list, was:
105 Remove bscreenshot binary
106 Add screenshot option to bjavaloader binary
107 Add comments in the code
108 Use defines beside of integer constant
109 Use b2hons to be compliant with evrywhat host
110 ZSH scripts completion
111 Use BMP structs beside of unreadable buffer !
113 - add command GetScreenShot to JLPacket class
114 - add JLScreenInfo to protocol structures
116 - minor tweaks to Nicolas's screenshot+zsh patch:
117 - renamed DIR_ENTRY and SS_ENTRY to DATA_ENTRY constant
118 as suggested by comments
119 - fixed some packet size checks
121 - removed unneeded packet.GetReceive(), since response
122 buffer is the same as what GetReceive() returns
123 - used AutoClose for fopen() calls in bjavaloader.cc
125 - removed manual buffer handling in favour of Data object
126 in JavaLoader::GetScreenshot()
127 - removed "unknown packet" exception from Socket::PacketData()
128 I think it is probably better to handle javaloader-level
129 errors and codes in the JavaLoader class, not the low-
131 - added erase and force erase support to bjavaloader, library, and zsh
132 - force erase is experimental
133 - applied documentation patch from Robert Yaklin on VSM file format
134 - did slight formatting changes before applying, for 80
135 columns, and set file to unix format instead of DOS
136 - added links to new USB capture logs from Robert Yaklin to
138 - cleaned up src/Makefile.am, regarding non-install headers
139 - moved Nicolas Vivien's bitmap conversion code into library API
140 - added bmp.h api, and moved internal structs to bmp-internal.h
141 - added size checks and endian conversion to bitmap
142 conversion code, so this code should run anywhere
144 - added link Josh Kropf's 'Blackberry development in linux' blog
145 post to doc/www/index.php
146 - added USB capture log archive page to www docs
147 - added config.rpath, needed by new AM_ICONV check
148 Thanks to Bill Paul for debugging this.
150 - added template wrapper for iconv() due to casting differences on
151 various platforms... thanks to Bill Paul for FreeBSD testing
152 - added AM_ICONV automake/autoconf check to configure.ac
153 This should take care of checking for libc or library
154 iconv installs, and checking the iconv() prototype for whether
155 const is needed or not. This removes the need for the
156 template added earlier.
158 - applied patch from Josh Kropf making bjavaloader's syntax more
159 compatible with the windows version, to make cross
160 platform build scripts possible
161 - applied Josh Kropf's settime syntax patch
162 - clarified timezone behaviour in javaloader settime
163 - added flag to JavaLoader mode class, so StopStream() is called
164 automatically in the destructor if not called manually
166 - added another ctor to BadSize exception class
167 - fixed bug in SocketZero where it checked sequence on packets
168 from non-zero sockets
169 - javaloader list mode updates:
170 - added Dump() code to directory classes
171 - fixed size issue with JLDirEntry header size define
172 - fixed size checks in entry parser
173 - fixed copy before in JLDirectory, now uses vector
174 - moved bjavaloader's Start/StopStream calls to main()
176 - removed default argument to CheckSize() so all code specifies
177 the size it really needs
178 - fixed bug in ParseData() that didn't copy data to receive arg
179 - adding additional javaloader commands and refactoring
180 this is a work in progress:
181 - added JLPacket class, encapsulating javaloader protocol
182 - added new defines for more JL commands
183 - refactored socket class, using PacketData()
184 for JL, and Packet() for Desktop (still needs
185 some work to be really clean)
186 - began implementing new commands (SetTime())
187 - thanks to Rick Scott for his reverse engineering effort
188 in XmBlackBerry, which inspired this code
189 - refactored packet.cc to make JLPacket even tighter
190 - updated doc/USB-capture.txt with link to vusb-analyzer
191 Thanks to Martin Owens for the link.
192 - added a set of be_*() endian swap functions, for big endian data
193 JavaLoader code seems to use big endian a lot.
194 - simplified bjavaloader.cc's command line args to make room for more
195 - cleaned up big endian code to use new be_* swap macros
196 - added protocol and packet code for directory / subdir commands
197 - added preliminary directory support to JavaLoader class
199 - reverted experimental handshaking in IpModem, since the session_key
200 patch fixed Bill Paul's issue
201 - finished adding IConverter support to r_task and r_timezone
202 - removed r_message_base.h from doxygen RecordParserClasses group
203 - removed unused ClassType variable from Task record class
204 - refactored Calendar and Task record classes, creating new
205 RecurBase to handle recurrence data
206 - removed FIXME in Socket::Packet(), since socket is set in Send()
207 - cleaned up socket handling and comments in packet.cc
209 - applied Nicolas Vivien's javaloader patch, fixing constant defines
210 and other small fixes
211 - minor whitespace and spelling fixes to above patch
212 - changed m_ipmodem.cc to send the session key even without password
213 which should help reduce the "special packets" coming from
215 Thanks to Rick Scott and Andy Herkey.
217 - refactored pthread timeout creation into ThreadTimeout() function
218 - added experimental handshaking to IpModem. This is in response
219 to Bill Paul's email regarding what he was seeing in the
220 logs with the special code packets which we dropped
221 on the floor. This code is to test whether this handshaking
224 - made maintainer script make-deb-local.sh more robust
225 - added list of target binary packages in ReleaseChecklist.txt
226 - changed to more general Fedora link to Chris Stover's packages
228 - applied Andy Herkey's ipmodem password patch for the Bold
229 - minor fixes to above patch, and in addition to above patch:
230 - use sizeof(seed), instead of type, in case of future changes
231 - removed commented out code
232 - added the null password check back to SendPassword(),
233 for historical reasons
234 - removed the null and zero default arguments to
235 SendPassword(), since they make no sense
236 - added define for session key size, and added size check
237 - added missing string.h header to src/m_javaloader.cc
238 - updated Debian and RPM packages to include bjavaloader
240 - applied Nicolas Vivien's bjavaloader patch
241 - small fixups to above patch:
242 - moved cod.h from installable headers to internal headers
244 - copyright statement tweaks
245 - added blog URLs to copyright list in cod.h where parts
246 of the structs appear to come from
247 - removed unused variables to compile with strict settings
248 - changed char to unsigned char to fix strict compiler
250 - removed duplicated a/b from Socket messages, and moved
251 read/write text to front, in socket.cc
252 - added NetDirect copyright notice to bjavaloader.cc, since
253 it is based on btool.cc
254 - removed unused boost-specific code from bjavaloader.cc
255 - more fixes to above patch: (bjavaloader.cc specifically)
256 - moved cod.h back to installable headers, since tools/
257 programs depend on it... this should be fixed
258 or put in the library as a COD-reading API
259 so that applications don't need to worry about
261 - fixed potential buffer overflow: removed buffer read used
262 to skip ahead in file, and replaced with fseek()
263 - changed SendAppFile() to report errors by exception
264 instead of by return value, which wasn't checked
265 anyway... and C++'d the file handle closing
266 - removed unused StateTableCommand, leftover from btool
267 - added check for unlikely case of COD file being larger
268 than size_t, breaking the fread() assumption
269 for the type == 0xC0DE case
270 - added checks for fread() failures
271 - fixed compiler warnings when comparing signed/unsigned,
272 and changed file operation types from plain int
274 - changes to src/m_javaloader.cc:
275 - fixed comments to remove Desktop-oriented notes
276 - moved variables closer to their use point
277 - removed the duplicated response Data objects in favour
278 of just one (each default Data object uses 0x4000
280 - removed manual endian swap in favour of htobl()
281 - oops... this size field is actually big endian.
282 Since all Barry code assumes that Blackberry
283 protocol traffic is little endian, a special
284 case needs to be added in m_javaloader.cc for
285 this field. The special case uses autoconf's
287 - fixed long long problem in endian.h (ISO C++
288 compilers don't support long long) and made
289 the bswap() functions always available
290 - removed unused CommandType and m_commandTable members
291 - fixed exception error messages to indicate command #
292 instead of Desktop message
293 - changed Packet() call to PacketData() when sending
294 file size, since there is no command
295 - added eout() data dump to socket::Packet() unknown send error
296 - fixed my incorrect off_t/size_t check in bjavaloader.cc
297 - removed the '0' JL_UNKNOWN4 command from src/protocol.h,
298 since the PacketData() change above now handles that,
299 and I don't think that byte is actually a command, but
300 really part of the uint32_t size
301 - Also fixed one remaining 0 command, to use PacketData()
303 - added AT+CLAC note to contrib/modemtest.rb, recording tidbit
305 - updated copyright dates for 2009
307 - fixed missing slash in config sample in doc/www/sync.php
308 Thanks to sourceforge tracker #2413683 for reporting
310 - added more notes to doc/USB-capture.txt, documenting my kernel
311 setup for capturing USB traffic, and added size-limiting
313 - added TODO list item for the Blackberry Storm
315 - moved Product ID constants into a single place (src/common.h)
317 - added Product ID 8007 for the Blackberry Storm... needs testing
319 - applied ppp chat script patch for AT&T Cingular from
321 - added new chat scripts to debian and rpm packages
322 - added known sources of additional Barry binary packages to index.php
323 - turned on call/caller graph support in Doxygen output
325 - applied 'patch' of Martin Owens' Content Store documentation
328 - large refactoring of all message/email record classes, and more
329 There is now a MessageBase base class, which combines
330 common email record parsing code in one class. This base
331 class is reused by all the specific messages record classes.
332 This commit also includes support for multiple email
333 addresses per email, as well as giving IConverter support
334 to all message classes.
335 - deleted empty *.cc files from project
336 - updated TODO file, removing opensync i18n bug
337 - added TODO item for password support in Opensync... try to avoid
338 storing the password in the sync config in plain text
339 - fixed dll export bug on ErrnoError exception class
340 - added BadPackedFormat exception for internal use
341 - ServiceBook: added IConverter support, and general cleanup
342 Refactored ServiceBook class and added some experimental
343 template functions to generalize the FieldLink table
344 processing. If possible, this needs to be expanded
345 to the general record classes, to reduce the amount of
346 code duplication during processing of FieldLinks and
347 CommonField structures.
348 Also, ServiceBook deals with packed fields, which should
349 also be extrapolated for general use, and reused if
350 possible for the new "Calendar - All" Blackberry databases
351 that are coming out on the new devices and firmare.
353 - updated man/btool.1 with new -i option
354 - fixed bug where opensync plugin didn't pass IConverter to Desktop
355 - added IConverter support to r_calendar.cc
356 - renamed utf8Needed to iconvNeeded, for consistency
357 - added IConverter support to r_folder.cc
358 - added IConverter support to r_memo.cc
359 - added IConverter support to r_message.cc
360 - added EmailAddressList, in preparation for multi-address email
362 - changed Parser base class to pure abstract... this is so that
363 future API changes to the Parse base class will be
364 detected by the compiler as errors
365 - added NullParser class, which performs the old Parser function
366 - changed all FieldLink arrays to static
367 - added new IConverter class to support converting the Blackberry's
368 WINDOWS-1252 charset to/from UTF-8 and more
369 - fixed bug in IConverter that saved end of string instead of
371 - reorganized barry.h app header and record.h header, so that
372 internal builds have fewer dependencies
373 - large parser/builder API change, adding IConverter support
374 This change starts at the top (Mode::Desktop) which
375 takes an optional IConverter object for parsing and
376 building conversions. The Desktop class passes
377 this IConverter object to Packet, Parser, and Builder (and
378 thereby, the corresponding Record classes) as needed.
379 This adds an extra pointer to a fair number of calls
380 in the stack, but maintains flexibility without putting
381 too much of a burden on Parser writers, which could be
383 The primary use of this architecture is to pass in an
384 IConverter configured to convert to UTF-8... this is
385 basically the only useful conversion method, but others
386 are possible if you want to play.
387 - first record class to support string conversions: Contact
388 - reverted the barry.h and record.h reorganization, since
389 the gui depends on it
390 - reorganized barry.h and record.h again, making inclusion of
391 the record headers dependent on whether it is a library
393 - updated the gui with the parser/builder API change
394 - added IConverter to opensync plugin, set to UTF-8
396 - added comment to src/r_contact.h deprecating the Phone field
397 - updated Doxyfile to 1.5.1
398 - added Christopher D. Stover to AUTHORS file as Fedora contact
400 - forgot #include <string.h> for memcpy/memset in tools/bfuse.cc
401 - moved bfuse install point from /usr/sbin to /usr/bin
403 - added FUSE filesystem "driver"
405 - commented out the info.subsystem match level in HAL FDI file...
406 this should let the FDI work on old and new systems.
407 HAL version 0.5.8 (used by Debian Etch) has the deprecated
408 info.bus property, and doesn't have info.subsystem yet.
409 - added HAL FDI scripts to rpm/barry.spec
410 - fixed tools/Makefile.plain
412 - added support for multiple work/home phone numbers to the
414 - Thanks to Richard Esplin for his test data.
415 - This fix has a conflict when a cell phone number is
416 marked as the preferred contact as well.
417 See http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=20081030231045.GA28989%40foursquare.net
418 for the full details.
419 - This fix also changes the VCARD output... pager phone
420 numbers are given the TYPE code of "pager"
422 - Added OtherPhone field as well
424 - applied HAL FDI scripts and configuration from Martin Owens
425 - updated AUTHORS file
426 - added HAL FDI and python script to Debian package install
428 - updated copyright notice and help text in contrib/modemtest.rb
429 - changed barry-verizon.chat script according to Andy Herkey's
430 recommendation... this worked much better for Michael L.
431 Stokes, since his provider was getting stuck on the ATZ
433 - applied Andy Herkey's modemtest.rb ruby script to contrib/
434 from his Aug 9, 2008 email to the mailing list
435 - applied Andy Herkey's new modemtest.rb script to contrib/
436 from his Oct 8, 2008 email to the mailing list
437 - added password pass-through code for pppob -s mode
438 - clarified front page www doc, adding date of last release
440 - cherry-picked changes from Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo's debian git repo
441 - debian/rules was stripping wrong library names
442 - FSF address was incorrect (also updated other source
443 files throughout the tree myself)
444 - more complete debian/copyright file
450 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
454 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
455 - added link to doxygen documentation to www index.php
457 Release: version 0.14 - 2008/09/24
458 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
460 - changed Debian changelog version to 0.14-0 to make room for
461 official Debian packages which start at 0.14-1
462 - moved Doxyfile from src/Makefile.am to Makefile.am
463 - made RPM spec file match debian version number
464 - www documentation updates for 0.14
466 - fixed git-tagged-release.sh to not delete its own results... oops
468 - fixed git command line in git-extract.sh for new 1.6.0.x behaviour
470 - added notes in ReleaseChecklist.txt regarding the new tarball
471 tags in the git repos
473 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
474 - moving items from private todo list to TODO file
475 - removed unused variable from maintainer/git-release-tar.sh
476 - added new maintainer/git-tagged-tar.sh, which puts more data
477 in the git repo, to make it easier for official Debian
479 - moved src/Doxyfile to ./Doxyfile to avoid ".." in the config...
480 the ".." paths confused doxygen and caused it to generate
481 non-relative paths in the documentation.
482 - added umask to maintainer/git-extract.sh, so it works even without
484 - updated maintainer/tar-prepare.sh to match the new Doxyfile
485 - added maintainer/tagged-release.sh, as replacement for the
486 release.sh top level script, when using git
487 - removed CVS-style ID code from contrib/barry-unbind-storage.sh
488 since it made it look like cdfrey wrote it
489 - removed doc/CodingStyle.txt as it is now documented in html
491 - added device name and backup label support to the GUI
492 It is now possible to name devices, instead of just
493 operating by PIN number, and it is possible to now
494 add a text label to the backup tar filenames.
495 - added the device names to the device selection dialog
497 - updated TODO list with i18n opensync bug and general i18n support
498 - added test suite to TODO list
500 - renamed libbarry to libbarry0 in rpm/barry.spec
501 - added %dump to rpm/barry.spec to match the OBS version
502 Makes it easier to track variable changes across
504 - added note to NEWS regarding binary package renaming
506 - fixed logic error in breset that displayed error on success
507 Thanks to Richard Esplin for reporting this bug.
508 - applied commit's from Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo's debian git repo
509 git://git.debian.org/git/users/jsogo/barry.git
510 - Add binary dependency of libbarry-dev on libusb-dev
511 - Rename libbarry to libbarry0, per debian policy
512 - Add exact dependency on binary:Version for every
513 -dbg and -dev package
514 - Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.0
516 - clarified barrybackup error message when no records available
517 Added a check so that "no databases selected" and
518 "no records available" are two distinct error messages.
520 - applied ppp chat script patch from Mick Reed
521 - updated RPM and Debian packages with new tmobileus ppp scripts
522 - added T-Mobile US to web documentation
524 - clarified sync docs regarding slow-sync... avoid it if possible
525 - tuned doxygen config, and moved generated files to doc/www/doxygen
526 - added git-release-tar.sh, replacing CVS's make-release-tar.sh
527 Also added doxygen to the release tarball creation, so
528 the source code's doxygen documentation is automatically
529 generated upon release.
530 - split git-release-tar.sh into reusable component scripts
532 - added exception handler for invalid command line options in GUI
533 - fixed barrybackup man page, removing bad -v option
534 - added distro section to AUTHORS
535 - fixed comment and whitespace problems in time.{h,cc}
536 - Converted Birthday from string to Date, and added Anniversary
537 support. Birthday and Anniversary fields now use a new
538 Date struct, and Barry validates the data to some extent.
539 - updated example code and opensync plugin to match
540 - applied Lee Dixon's Location and Description plugin patch,
541 with minor whitespace edits
543 - added Birthday field to examples/addcontact.cc for testing
545 - applied Lee Dixon's Birthday field and opensync patch
546 - fixed coding format issues
549 - fixed bug in m_ipmodem.cc that included a null terminator in
551 - fixed RFC 2426 conformance bug... RFC 2426, 3.1.1 states that FN
552 MUST be present in the vcard object. If there is no name
553 available, then we use the Company name if available. It
554 should be, since the Blackberry requires either name or Company
555 in order to create a new address. If Company is blank too, then
556 we insert "(Blank Name)".
557 - On the flip side of this same bug, it is possible to receive
558 non-conformant vcard data from evolution / opensync
559 that does not include FN. Since the Blackberry
560 doesn't require this information, remove the
561 exception, and only throw an exception if FN
562 or Company are both blank.
563 - REVERT: removed the Company and "(Blank Name)" workarounds,
564 and just produce an invalid vcard if no full name,
565 since with multiple syncing, this will come back
566 to bite us with duplicated Company name data
567 - added sanity check to contact class for blank name and company
568 - added BadData exception class, and documented it
570 - fixed bug in vAttr::GetValue that ignored index for single valued
571 attributes... this should fix the endless loop / memory
572 exhaustion that some people have been seeing
573 Thanks to Lee Dixon for reporting this bug in detail!
574 - added TODO list item for implementing recurring calendar items
580 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
584 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc

619 - removed old, unused spec file and scripts for bcharge-only release
620 - fixed rpm build instructions in web docs
621 - reduced minimum password retry level from 6 to 3... Reinhold Schoeb
622 reports that his 8800 device only lets him set a password
623 retry range between 3 and 5, instead of the usual 10 that
626 - added "known issues" section to main www doc page
627 - fixed virtual function mis-name bug in btool's null parser
628 - added -i option to brecsum, to include record IDs in the sums
629 - applied Ashley Willis's btool 0.12 null parser patch to CVS, which
630 required some manual porting changes...
631 - removed bool reference argument in GetParser()
633 - applied Ashley Willis's perlbarry package, putting it in the
634 new contrib/ directory
636 - now that btool patch is applied, don't need it in contrib
637 - removed openssl from dependencies documentation, as barry now
638 has its own sha1 code
639 - added libtool to dependencies documentation
640 - rpm/barry.spec file now assumes gui and opensync, with conditional
641 checks depending which system it is being built on...

660 - removed mis-configured 'make dist' check from buildtest.sh
661 - added missing 'scoped_lock.h' to src/Makefile.am's non-installed
662 headers, as it is an internal header only
663 - improved buildtest.sh: speed, accuracy
664 - added -j option to make to speed builds
665 - moved cleanall check above 'make dist' as dist doesn't
666 clean up after itself
667 - commented out 'make distcheck' for now, as it doesn't work
668 - added DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS to root Makefile.am, similar to
669 David Everly's patch in tracker # 1973536
670 Thanks David! 'make distcheck' now works, but only in
671 an environment like buildtest.sh creates.
672 Also, buildtest.sh passes all tests now, including distcheck.
674 - removed unused src/controllertmpl.h
675 - added ppp and test directories to Makefile.am EXTRA_DIST
677 - added beginnings of a build system test script

694 - renamed class variable session_key to match others
695 - added check to skip password if "" is passed in
696 - added the m_filter for ipmodem PPP 0x7e filtering
697 back, since the 8320 w/ rogers seems to need it
700 - added timeout argument to Device::BulkDrain()
701 - added mozilla's sha1 code from git
702 - removed openssl dependency due to license issues
703 Debian and Ubuntu have checks in their lintian tool that
704 check for GPL+OpenSSL linkage. In order to remove any
705 potential obstacles to future inclusion in those distros,
706 the dependency is removed here in favour of the small
707 mozilla implementation which is GPL.
709 - added notes to web documentation for OpenBSD

762 - modified verizon options file to use pppob
763 - split the sample rogers options file into options and chat files
765 - put sequence packet check directly in the SocketZero::RawReceive()
766 function, which now localizes all sequence packet
767 handling and checking, as well as avoids packet
768 order problems when multiple sockets are in use,
769 such as with pppob...
770 FIXME - this localized sequence checking may make all
771 the calls to CheckSequence() obsolete which
772 should probably be cleaned up someday, if so.
773 - reorganized src/socket.cc to match class private/public
774 order (no code change, only move)
775 - added verbose log message to Controller constructors, so it is
776 possible to determine whether a program is using
777 threaded or non-threaded sockets
778 - added -z and -Z command line options to btool to control
779 the non-threaded/threaded behaviour, respectively;
780 and updated the man page
781 - removed debug sleep() calls from pppob
782 - added SIGINT signal handler so pppob shutsdown gracefully when
785 - mention CVS and git on main documentation "how to" list
786 - moved PPP filter logic into its own class
787 - enhanced PPP filter class to support prepending of
788 empty bytes if needed, in order to reduce data
789 copying, and clarified why there is no GetBuffer()
790 - added ProbeResult::HasIpModem() to determine whether
791 IpModem endpoints are available
792 - added pure virtual Modem base class for common
793 modem-oriented API (only Open and Write so far)
794 - Mode::IpModem is now derived from Barry::Modem
795 - experimental implementation for Mode::Serial,
796 which is now derived from Barry::Modem,
798 - pppob now supports IpModem and Serial modes, and logging
799 to file instead of stderr
800 - added man page for pppob
802 - modified the planned version numbering scheme in doc/VersionNotes,
803 so that a 1.0 is possible, with 1.50 as the devel series
805 - continuing to update html documentation in preparation for
808 - removed -fvisibility-inlines-hidden compile options since some
809 distros have old or broken compilers or libraries where
810 the build breaks looking for STL templates (Ubuntu 7.10,
811 I'm looking at you...)
812 - changed brecsum so usage information is displayed automatically
813 if no command line arguments are specified
814 - added opensync-plugin to maintainer test scripts, and added
815 ubuntu710 to the test build sequence
817 - updated doc/TroubleShooting.txt
818 - removed usb_control message check from IpModem endpoint probing
819 in src/probe.cc, since some devices, like the 8700
820 have both RIM_UsbSerData mode and IpModem mode.
821 - fixed serialization code for Calendar record class, in s11n-boost.h
822 - made UnknownField's data member into its own type,
823 so that when building records, it doesn't get processed
824 like a null terminated string... also added more
825 BuildField() helper functions for accuracy
826 - fixed missing fields in the Calendar record build process
827 - added Calendar to list of Builders in tools/btool...
828 it is now possible to run: btool -s "Calendar" -f datafile
829 - added tools/brecsum program, which calculates SHA1 checksums
830 on database records, for testing
831 - added brecsum to debian and rpm builds
832 - added recurrence builder function to Calendar record builder code
833 which completes builder support
834 Checksums from the following commands now match:
835 brecsum -d Calendar > sum1.txt
836 btool -d Calendar -f calendar.dat
837 btool -s Calendar -f calendar.dat
838 brecsum -d Calendar > sum2.txt
839 diff -u <(sort sum1.txt) <(sort sum2.txt)
841 - applied Jason Thomas's ACLOCAL_FLAGS patch to make autoreconf
842 work again... Thanks!
843 - applied Jason Thomas's debian build dependency patch
846 - started documentation overhaul in doc/www, putting the commonly
847 asked questions right on the front page, and making it more
848 goal-oriented, so it is hopefully easier to use
851 - fixed error messages in m_desktop.cc that still referred
854 - major merge of barry-b1-socket-arch-branch into MAIN.
855 The following is the changelog from that branch, which is now MAIN.

981 See: http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility
983 Release: version 0.12 - 2008/03/21
984 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
986 - changed maintainer script to use CVS export instead of checkout,
987 to avoid the CVS directories
988 - added support for building Debian source packages with proper
989 diff.gz and dsc files
990 - fixed find warning in maintainer/make-rpm.sh
991 - added support for Ubuntu binary packages to the maintainer build
994 - renamed all vformat_ and VFormat symbols in opensync plugin's
995 copy of vformat code, so they don't conflict with the
996 real opensync libraries
998 - updated the install.php web page with Paul Dugas's notes on
999 building RPM's from CVS
1000 - fixed problem in tools/Makefile.am where bs11nread was included
1001 in build, even if --with-boost was not specified
1002 on ./configure command line
1004 - changed format of Boost serialization file output from btool,
1005 so that the database name is stored as the first line
1007 - added tools/bs11nread.cc to read Boost serialization file data
1009 - minor adjustments to r_message.h and r_timezone.h
1010 - updated s11n-boost.h header to match record classes
1012 - applied Time Zone parsing patches from Brian Edginton
1013 - added Time Zones to list of supported parsers in btool.cc
1015 - changed configure.ac to use bzip2 for "make dist".. thanks to
1016 Paul Dugas for the tip
1018 - committed Chris Burgess's update to the roadmap document
1019 - applied Paul Dugas's x86-64 build patch, except the
1020 tar.bz2/tar.gz change
1021 - updated AUTHORS file
1023 - fixed configure.ac's --with-boost option, so that without args,
1024 it defaults to using --includedir and --libdir settings,
1025 instead of hardcoding /usr/include and /usr/lib... this
1026 should allow smarter compiling on 64 bit systems
1027 - updated RPM spec file to use new --with-boost behaviour
1028 - ahem, fixed configure.ac again... don't use --includedir and
1029 --libdir, as those are install targets... oops.
1030 Don't add path overrides at all if not specified.
1032 - fixed locale issues in src/data.cc
1033 - updated copyright statments for 2008
1035 - applied wording correction patch to btool from Matt LaPlante

1043 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
1047 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
1050 Release: version 0.11 - 2007/12/01
1051 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1053 - fixed null pointer bug in Probe class (bug #1842407)
1054 - added pause to maintainer release script
1060 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
1064 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
1066 Release: version 0.10 - 2007/11/30
1067 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1069 - added support to the usbwrap Match class to limit its
1070 search by busname / devname
1071 - added support to the Probe class to limit its search for
1072 Blackberry devices to a given bus or device name
1073 - added command line options to btool for the above Probe
1074 bus/device names, and updated the man page
1075 - updated the www docs with regard to the new usb_storage
1076 behaviour and the new blacklist files... less
1077 concern about berry_charge and usb_storage conflicts
1078 - added bidentify tool and accompanying man page
1079 - fixed bug in rpm maintenance script that used the wrong
1080 spec file for opensuse
1082 - added better error checking to breset
1083 - commented the sleep() for the 8830
1084 - added code to handle the race condition where usb_storage
1085 claims the device before bcharge arrives on the scene,
1086 by asking the kernel to detach the driver from
1087 the Mass Storage interface... this change makes it
1088 possible to run bcharge, moving from 0006 to 0004
1089 to 0001 and back to 0004, all *while* usb_storage
1091 - changed Probe class behaviour so that it will not throw an
1092 exception on Device Busy (-EBUSY) but instead
1093 log the error in an internal array and keep going.
1094 This makes it possible to use btool and barrybackup
1095 with two devices plugged in at the same time.
1096 BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY NOTE: this changes initializaion
1097 behaviour, but in practice, it should only
1098 make applications look more capable, not less.
1099 - updated btool to show errors logged by Probe
1100 - added message to specify which PIN device is being used by btool
1101 - added explanatory comments to udev rules files, about why
1104 - added ClearHalt() calls to probe and controller classes, just
1105 before any communication happens... the 8830 seems
1108 - added usbwrap.cc:GetConfiguration()
1109 - added code to check whether the configuration is the one
1110 we require, before calling SetConfiguration()... and not
1111 to call it if unnecessary. This allows us to run
1112 at the same time as usb_storage.
1113 Thanks to Martin Owens for not letting this issue go. :-)
1114 - added sleep to bcharge, before calling usb_reset()... the
1115 Blackberry 8830 behaves like a Pearl device in that
1116 it has mass storage support, but behaves like a Classic
1117 in that it resets itself... the usb_reset() seems
1118 to reset it back to 0006. The sleep allows the device
1119 to disappear via its own reset, and let usb_reset()
1120 fail naturally on these devices.
1121 This is not an ideal solution... mainly for testing.
1123 - added modprobe/blacklist-berry_charge as per Simon Ruggier's
1124 suggestion. Thanks also to Niels de Vos for a similar
1126 - fixed udev rules to work on both old and new distros
1127 Thanks to Duncan Mak for the bug report.
1129 - fixed string comparison to use case insensitive compare in
1131 - updated Debian package to include modprobe blacklist file
1132 - updated rpm spec file to include modprobe blacklist file
1133 - split the maintenance scripts into release and test, so
1134 that release package builds can be done faster
1136 - opensync plugin fixes:
1137 - fixed memory leak in vBase::GetAttr()
1138 - added support in vformat parser to parse "blocks"
1139 and keep track of the hierarchy when
1140 parsing an iCalendar, etc.
1141 - added support for searching for attributes only
1142 inside certain blocks (i.e. find first
1143 DTSTART in VEVENT block, not VTIMEZONE block)
1145 - fixed bug in Calendar::Clear, missing the Free / Class
1146 member variables, leaving them uninitialized
1147 - added examples/addcalendar.cc
1148 - added more logging to the opensync plugin, logging the
1149 ToBarry conversion results
1150 - added code to force struct tm.tm_isdst to -1 before calling
1151 mktime, in vformat.c
1152 - fixed typo in previous fix
1154 - renamed ktrans and translate to bktrans and btranslate to avoid
1155 file name clashes with libtranslate of Gnome
1156 Closes bug #1812410 reported by Troy Engel.
1161 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
1165 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
1166 - fixed missing default config file in the debian package for
1168 Closes bug #1812224 reported by Ariel (adonatti).
1169 - added debian dbg packages for tracing segfaults
1170 - modified maintainer scripts so debug packages would reference
1171 source code located in /usr/src/barry-0.9, etc.
1173 Release: version 0.9 - 2007/10/12
1174 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1176 - adjusted autosuspend disabling code in bcharge, based on new
1177 information on how kernels 2.6.21 / 2.6.22 work.
1178 See bcharge.cc for comments. If device/power/level or
1179 device/power/autosuspend exist, charging should now work
1180 without recompiling the kernel.
1181 - updated website docs with autosuspend info
1183 - large update to the doc/www web pages, moving some of the
1184 information in README files to html format, so that it
1185 is commonly available on the web
1186 - added step in maintenance scripts to automatically build the
1187 .html files in doc/www when making a tarball release
1189 - added libopensync 0.22 version requirement to barry.spec file,
1190 but it doesn't seem to work on OpenSuSE 10.2, where it's
1193 - updated README to mention new tree build configure options
1194 - fixed the configure scripts and makefiles so that when building
1195 with custom CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables,
1196 it doesn't break the full-tree build mode, when
1197 using --enable-gui and/or --enable-opensync-plugin
1198 - added config.h.in~ to buildgen.sh clean target
1199 - converted Debian build scripts to use cdbs
1200 - added opensync plugin binary package for Debian
1201 - added "Getting Started" section to web pages, as well as an
1202 explanatory document for various system requirements
1203 - turned on opensync build in RPM maintainer scripts
1205 - added filename to power/state error message in bcharge.cc
1206 - adjusted maintainer scripts to automatically adjust barry.spec
1207 for opensuse rpm builds
1209 - fixed some of the release build scripts and added support for
1210 automated opensuse 10.2 builds
1211 - fixed build target to i386
1212 - changed scripts to add to PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable instead
1215 - added website docs to doc/www... these are out of date at the
1216 moment, and hopefully by including them here, they
1217 will be updated more frequently
1219 - applied Simon Ruggier's build system patch that allowed a build
1220 of all 3 components from the root directory and fixed the
1221 configure scripts to support external build directories
1222 - reordered clean commands in the buildgen.sh scripts, and removed
1223 the INSTALL files, since they are auto-generated by autoconf
1224 - removed extraneous buildgen.sh calls in maintainer scripts
1225 - added Simon Ruggier to AUTHORS
1226 - added explanatory note to 3 stage test build process in
1229 - fixed Category handling in the Contact record class, to
1230 parse the comma separated string into an array,
1232 Note: this involves a change to the boost serialization
1233 and will affect backward compatibility with
1234 old serialization datafiles
1235 - added Category to examples/addcontact.cc
1236 - added Category support to the opensync plugin
1238 - fixed wrong read/write in btool output (oops)
1239 - added BadSize exception, and changed CheckSize() function
1240 to throw it on error
1241 - changed backup GUI to catch BadSize exceptions on initial
1242 connect, and try a reset if that error occurs, since
1243 that likely means the device didn't shutdown properly
1244 - fixed in opensync plugin:
1245 - some vcard data contains types codes in capital letters,
1246 so added lower case conversion routine
1247 - changed the order of address lines, so that address1
1248 is the street, address2 is the extended address,
1249 and address3 is the PO Box. The Blackberry
1250 doesn't seem to have any PO Box field.
1252 - added -e endpoint override option to btool
1253 - added status message to endpoint override
1255 - added configure check for strnlen, and implementation for
1256 systems that don't have it, or that have it implemented
1257 incorrectly. Went a little paranoid here, since
1258 AC_FUNC_STRNLEN doesn't set a define in config.h,
1259 so I had to do it manually, and check in case autoconf
1260 changes in the future... ugh. See src/strnlen.h for
1262 - added code in probe.cc to fetch the device's description.
1263 The description is now part of the probe results
1264 along with the PIN. Updates to protocol.h, adding
1265 a new attribute definition.
1266 Thanks to Rick Scott for pointing out the code in
1267 XmBlackberry where he implemented this first.
1268 - fixed header dependency in record-internal.h
1269 - updated the "required autoconf" version to 2.61 for root build
1270 - moved nested structs out of the record classes that contain them,
1271 in order to better support SWIG and Python
1273 - changed bcharge to use getopt() for its argument processing
1274 - added options -p and -s to bcharge, to adjust usb suspend
1275 settings automatically where possible
1276 - updated the udev rules to use the new bcharge settings
1277 - updated the bcharge man page with the new arguments
1279 - cleaned up Usb exception handling, moving libusb error code
1280 processing into the Usb::Error exception class.
1281 error.cc is now an empty shell
1282 - added return codes to the Usb::Error exceptions
1283 - removed aboutdialog.{h,cc} from the backup GUI since even
1284 Debian stable now has up-to-date gtkmm libraries
1285 - added more user friendly error message for the "device busy"
1286 case, recommending 'rmmod usb_storage'.
1288 - added better error checking to bcharge.cc
1293 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
1297 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
1298 - removed usb_set_configuration() check from bcharge.cc, since
1299 that may fail under normal operation, in this case
1301 Release: version 0.8 - 2007/08/03
1302 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1304 - moved Interface implementation to usbwrap.cc file
1305 - added dout debugging messages to usbwrap.cc
1306 - clarified unhandled packet error message in socket.cc
1307 - added temporary workaround in opensync-plugin environment's
1308 Reconnect(), for odd message seen on newer Blackberry
1310 - fixing issues with Brian Edginton's MessageRecord patch (2007/06/29)
1311 - fixed missing size check in message oriented ParseHeader()
1312 - fixed endian conversion issues (also found one pre-existing
1313 endian bug in the process)
1314 - moved message timestamp converter code to time.cc
1315 - added Barry version number to opensync plugin name
1316 - changed maintainer scripts and rpm.spec to use bzip2 instead of gzip
1317 - added opensync-plugin to configure script build
1318 - added -S option to btool, to list supported parsers and builders
1319 - slight change to opensync-plugin/buildgen.sh to cleanup config.h.in~
1320 - opensync-plugin/README update
1321 - added opensync-plugin/patches for others who may be building and
1322 testing the plugin with OpenSync 0.22
1323 - added debian package build scripts to maintainer/
1325 - added entry to doc/TroubleShooting.txt
1327 - added doc/TroubleShooting.txt
1330 - fixed bug in vcard.cc that was using the FN field
1331 for the broken-down name instead of N
1332 - added dbId and dbName to DatabaseSyncState
1333 - added Reconnect() functionality to BarryEnvironment class
1334 and moved connect logic out of barry_sync.cc
1335 - changed the batch commit functionality in barry_sync.cc
1336 to single-change-commit. Why? Because opensync
1337 0.22 groups all batch changes into one group
1338 and calls one batch commit function, even if you
1339 registered two. Moving to single change commit
1340 mode removes a chunk of unneccessary code
1341 from the plugin as well, and can in theory
1342 ease memory pressure in the library.
1343 - added FinishSync() to perform actions needed on successful
1345 - disconnect on successful sync completion, and reconnect,
1346 since the device's dirty flags don't seem to
1347 be updated until a disconnect occurs.
1349 - added ReadDataArray() to data.h, using an istream instead of
1351 - added raw data version of BuildField() to record-internal.h
1352 This is so that btool doesn't add extra null terminators
1353 to unknown data, when restoring with option -s
1354 - fixed bugs in r_contact.cc:
1355 - fixed bug that caused a LastName/FirstName swap
1356 if FirstName was empty and you wrote a contact
1357 record into the device.... First/Last Name
1358 fields are position sensitive, and the code
1359 was missing the empty FirstName case on writing
1360 - fixed bug in BuildFields() and Dump() where they
1361 were not updated to handle the new field
1362 table added for the postal address changes
1365 - changed the plugin config file, so it is possible to
1366 turn debug output on/off without recompiling
1367 - moved the standalone Map2Uid() function into
1368 the DatabaseSyncState class, and changed the
1369 code to produce "contact-#" and "calendar-#"
1370 UID strings, instead of just numbers
1371 - changed default PIN to -1, so that if the user doesn't
1372 configure properly, it will fail... this is a
1373 safety measure to avoid syncing with different
1374 devices and corrupting the cache/idmap...
1375 this should be fixed someday, to handle this
1377 On second thought... is this right? Perhaps
1378 it is better to fail if the PIN is not what
1379 is expected, so a user doesn't accidentally
1380 sync the wrong device and lose data.
1381 Actions to take on new PIN:
1382 - force slow_sync, or
1384 - incorporated the new VCardConverter code into the
1385 main barry_sync.cc plugin code
1386 - fixed bug that did not clear the devices dirty flags
1387 in the case where a sync only read data from it,
1389 - changed PIN error message number to hex
1391 - minor wording change in backup GUI prompt: "Backup working..." to
1392 "Backup in progress..."
1393 - renamed Contact class's Title field to JobTitle for clarity
1394 - added record function ParseFieldString(), which properly handles
1395 strings from the device that have multiple null terminators,
1396 and changed the record parsing code to use this new function
1397 - moved FullName() function from ldif.cc to r_contact.cc since it
1398 is generally useful in areas outside of LDIF processing
1399 - refactored postal addresses in the Contact record class into
1400 a new class called PostalAddress
1401 - renamed Address class in record.h to EmailAddress
1402 - moved Contact::GetPostalAddress() to record.cc as part of the
1403 new PostalAddress class and renamed it
1404 PostalAddress::GetLabel()
1406 - refactored vformat helpers into separate base class
1408 - added vCard converter class
1409 - commented out the code that skipped over the adding
1410 of empty attribute values and parameters,
1411 since VCARD depends on some of this behaviour
1412 - movified vformat.c:vformat_find_attribute() to take
1413 an extra nth argument, in order to search
1414 for multiple attributes with the same name...
1415 the way this is coded is a bit inefficient...
1416 but we're moving away from vformat when we move
1417 to OpenSync 0.3x / 0.40, so this is just temporary
1420 - added SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device" to example udev rules, in order
1421 to avoid running bcharge for each endpoint that is
1422 added by udev, when first plugged in. Running bcharge
1423 back-to-back multiple times can crash some
1427 - fixed ID mapping bug in the case of a non-numeric UID
1428 from syncing external -> Barry, and then the
1429 new Barry ID would look like a new change
1430 when syncing back from Barry -> external.
1431 - added support for slow sync
1432 - added clear() to idmap class
1433 - added vformat attr parameter extraction class
1434 - added more trace logging during vformat/Barry conversions
1435 - added Notification time support
1436 - handled "all day" vformat special case, when DTEND
1437 does not exist in a vformat data block
1438 - changed the min1900_t time conversion functions to handle
1439 the 0xffffffff special case, when notifications
1440 are turned off on a calendar event (src/time.cc)
1441 - also made the calendar data dump output clearer for
1442 disabled timestamps, and added debug output
1443 for the raw min1900 value, in case there are more
1444 special cases in the future
1446 - fixed null pointer access in opensync's HasMultipleVEvents()
1448 - upper management directive: revert all OpenSync 0.3x changes
1449 and proceed with OpenSync 0.22. Reverting the
1450 opensync-plugin/src tree to Barry 0.7 status.
1452 - reorganized exception and trace code in opensync plugin
1453 - added XmlToCalendar() function, based on unfinished opensync
1454 library API that is not yet finished... will be
1455 committed to opensync svn tree when complete
1456 - added OSyncXMLField logger to plugin trace class
1458 - applied email MessageRecord patch from Brian Edginton (thanks!)
1459 - updated Message::Dump() to output more valid mbox data...
1460 the goal is to be able to do:
1461 btool -d "Messages" > email.mbox
1463 - changed some TODO's to FIXME's to keep it grep-consistent
1464 - applied Folder support patch from Brian Edginton
1465 - fixed pedantic compile warnings, and changed order in src/Makefile.am
1466 - removed unneeded cast in src/r_folder.cc
1468 - minor adjustment to ctags building in buildgen.sh
1469 - applied patch from Brian Edginton for better boost detection
1471 - added boost usage message to btool -h output
1473 - more porting of OpenSync module to 0.30
1474 - added ctags build for opensync source tree to buildgen.sh
1476 - changed PKG_CONFIG_PATH setting in rpm script, so that systems
1477 like SuSE that have an extensive PKG_CONFIG_PATH
1478 in general use will not break on build
1479 - added PKG_CONFIG_PATH to debian script too, just in case :-)
1480 - added debian/changelog to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1481 - added comment to rpm/barry.spec regarding SuSE RPM builds
1483 - applied patch from Niels de Vos fixing debian package build
1485 - applied Brian Edginton's Saved Email Messages patch
1486 - updated r_saved_messages.cc comment to match header
1487 - added GetRecType()/GetUniqueId() to r_saved_messages.h, since
1488 SetIds() is already there
1489 - removed Address version of operator<<() from message related headers
1490 and moved into record.h
1491 - added std::hex to message related dumps, and changed output to
1493 - updated doc/CodingStyle.txt to cover switch() statements
1494 - opensync compiles again, with 0.30! (not functional yet)
1495 - moving closer to more modular and reusable plugin functions
1496 - updated release checklist for opensync version number
1498 - added doc/CodingStyle.txt... preliminary version
1500 - applied Brian Edginton's PIN message patch
1501 - changes to PIN message patch:
1502 - fixed missing backslash in src/Makefile.am
1503 - fixed tab alignment throughout
1504 - removed typedef from Address struct
1505 - added clear() to Address... might as well, if it it is
1506 going to be a standalone type
1507 - fixed missing comma in PINMessageFieldLinks table
1508 - changed MessageRecordId in PINMessage to load from a new
1509 uint32_t field in CommonField, instead of piggy
1510 backing on a field for other use
1511 - did some testing and found that PINMessage's MessageRecordId
1512 is the same as the RecordId given through the SetIds()
1513 API... but these Id's are duplicated in the protocol...
1514 RecordId is stored in the protocol header, while
1515 MessageRecordId is stored in the record it self as
1516 a common field... added RecType and RecordId to
1517 PIN Message so that we store both of these
1520 - added item to gui/TODO
1521 - applied Brian Edginton's s11n-boost.h patch
1523 - renamed template values to more consistent naming scheme
1524 - applied memos and tasks patch from Brian Edginton, slightly
1525 modified to split into the new separate files system
1526 - changes to memos and tasks classes:
1527 - reformatted the code to match coding style
1529 - added copyright notice
1530 - changed class to singular (Memo, not Memos)
1531 - placed in Barry namespace
1532 - added #ifdef header protectors
1533 - added new files to Makefile.am
1534 - added new r_*.h headers to record.h
1535 - added support for Memos and Tasks to tools/btool.cc, based on
1536 Brian Edginton's patch
1537 (currently commented out, for Boost library reasons):
1538 - added doc/CommitPolicy.txt
1541 - added ctags generation to buildgen.sh
1542 - applied record.{h,cc} fix patch from Brian Edginton
1546 - fixed broken formatting in above patch
1547 - refactored record parser classes into separate files for each
1548 - changed the ConvertHtoB<> template to inline, as it caused
1549 linker errors with the new file layout
1551 - fixed bug in Debian packaging that put util commands in
1552 /bin and /sbin instead of /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
1553 - commited byteswap.h replacement code from gm2net
1555 - removed unneeded debug messages on stdout
1556 - changed the default for debug output to "off"
1557 and added a command line option to turn
1558 it on if necessary (--debug-output)
1559 - command line option --help now also works
1560 - fixed bug in Calendar class where it didn't initialize
1561 RecType properly... and cleaned up other RecType
1562 code to use the GetDefaultRecType() functions,
1563 localizing the constants in one place
1565 - applied patches from Brian Edginton, parsing more
1566 fields in Contact and Calendar records
1567 - added Brian Edginton to AUTHORS
1568 - reformatted record.{h,cc} to match the rest of the code,
1569 removed commented out code, and removed mention of
1570 Outlook from the comments.
1571 - updated udev/10-blackberry.rules.Debian for Debian Etch
1572 - updated debian/rules to use new udev rules file
1573 - removed debian/postinst, as stable versions of Debian now
1574 have a recent udev, and don't need the special handling
1575 - updated Debian build scripts to build separate packages:
1580 - added menu support to Debian barrybackup-gui package
1581 - made the buttons bigger in the backup GUI, as they were too
1582 small on Debian Etch
1584 - more progress in porting to opensync 0.30, heavily
1585 based on the example plugin in the opensync
1586 svn tree... this is a work in progress, and so far
1590 - partial porting to opensync 0.30 (in progress!)
1591 - fixed bug in sync_done where it reported context error
1592 and then success afterward
1593 - checking in new INSTALL files based on Etch's autoconf run
1594 - added item to gui's todo list
1595 - bumped version numbers to 0.8 in:
1599 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1603 Release: version 0.7 - 2007/05/02
1604 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1606 - added rpm building to maintainer/release scripts
1607 - added "HEAD" feature to tarball creation script, for easier testing
1608 - updated maintainer/README
1609 - updated maintainer/release.sh to use new HEAD feature too
1611 - added pppob to rpm barry.spec
1612 - bumped release number in barry.spec
1615 - fixed size check bugs (strlen() == 0 when empty)
1616 - finished refactoring calendar conversion routines
1617 - started timezone parsing, but this may go away
1618 if we use opensync 0.30's time functions and
1620 - added development note to README
1622 - updated README and opensync-plugin/README with more current
1625 - refactored some calendar conversion routines
1626 - added Barry->vCalendar conversion for recurring appointments
1629 - removed some unneeded trace logs
1630 - fixed VEventConverter constructor bug, with uninitialized
1632 - eased up the requirement that every calendar event
1633 must have a summary... defaults to "<blank subject>"
1635 - added more VCALENDAR fields to match Barry::Calendar record
1636 - fixed case sensitive compares in vformat.c
1638 - opensync module work:
1639 - added id map class to map string uid's from OpenSync to
1640 numeric ID's from the Blackberry
1641 - fixed bug in CommitChange() where it was still using
1642 a hard coded calendar record state table
1643 - added lots of logging throughout
1644 - fixed bug where newly added records didn't use the
1645 change object's uid, but created a new ID,
1646 causing another sync on the next run
1647 i.e. (CommitData_t was missing an argument)
1648 - fixed bug where uninitialized notification time was
1649 written to the Blackberry
1650 - more opensync module work:
1651 - refactored the environment class into another subclass
1652 called DatabaseSyncState, and moved some stand-
1653 alone functions from barry_sync.cc into
1654 the environment classes
1655 - added a tagged constructor to the trace class
1656 - fixed idmap::Load() to clear map before loading
1658 - renamed barry-config to barry-sync, the default configuration
1659 file for the opensync module... and filled it with
1660 a sample configuration
1661 - added code to update the calendar cache, and write it to disk
1662 on success (opensync module)
1663 - added code to clear dirty flags in the device (opensync module)
1664 - allowed comments in the config file
1665 - added vformat.c from libopensync 0.22, since the vformat
1666 routines are not available from the plugin side
1669 - added -d switch to bcharge to switch back from 0001 to 0004 mode,
1670 changed the auto-detection logic to ignore iProduct and
1671 only use idProduct, and updated man page
1672 - updated breset to recognize the Pearl in 00004 mode as well
1673 - changed src/probe.cc logic to assume that the second endpoint
1674 pair is the one needed for database communication, instead
1675 of doing a reverse search from the end... newer Pearls
1676 in Dual mode seem to have at least 3 or 4 endpoint pairs,
1677 and the old search didn't always work
1678 - applied sourceforge patch #1696884 from Peter Silva, updating
1679 the Debian build for Etch, and including all files in one deb
1680 - added Peter Silva to AUTHORS file
1681 - uncommented the "make distclean" in debian/rules, and removed
1682 the reliance on /tmp when installing 99-barry-perms.rules
1683 - applied bb_task_format.txt patch from Peter Silva
1684 - fixed each misspelling of "recurrance" to "recurrence"
1685 - tweaked src/probe.cc again for paranoia's sake... start at
1686 offset 1 if more than 1 endpoint pair, otherwise start
1688 - split up opensync module into multiple source files, and started
1689 using the opensync vformat routines for parsing and building
1690 the vevent20 data (experimental)
1692 - more incremental work on the opensync plugin, adding ADDED
1693 and MODIFIED functionality... (experimental!)
1695 - added code to dump extra descriptors during device discovery,
1697 - bumped opensync version number in configure.ac, and made
1698 the configure scripts more consistent with the rest
1700 - fixed printf-format size bug in opensync module
1702 - applied patch from Niels de Vos, fixing deb udev rules for Pearl
1704 - fixed extra space bug in LDIF output (added space when creating
1705 FullName, even if there was no last name)
1706 - fixed Address Book record parsing in Contact class... the
1707 Blackberry database uses field id 0x20 for both the
1708 first and last names, and if only a last name exists,
1709 the first name will be empty. Fixed parser to handle
1710 this special case, without relying on string length.
1711 Thanks to Troy Engel for reporting above two LDIF bugs.
1712 - added a few more constants to bcharge.cc
1713 - renamed opensync's configure.in to configure.ac
1715 - fixed bcharge to avoid endless reset loop... oops
1717 - reorganized bcharge.cc to make it possible to switch between
1718 Pearl modes 0004 and 0001
1719 - added flag to BadPassword exception class, to signal whether
1720 the library considers the device "out of retries" or not
1721 - updated socket.cc for new BadPassword exception
1722 - added special case to Controller class destructor to reset the
1723 device if being destroyed in a half-open state... this is
1724 a temporary fix until we understand how to handle
1725 the "already open" message we get when opening the Desktop
1727 - added password prompt dialog to the backup GUI
1728 - fixed possible memory leak in GUI's DeviceInterface::Connect()
1730 - committed Troy Engel's bbrules_mass_symlinks.patch, fixing
1731 udev rules for the Pearl
1732 - updated 10-blackberry.rules.Debian to match 10-blackberry.rules's
1734 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to generate all required
1735 RPM's... Thank you! Notes in the README taken from
1736 the sourceforge tracker entry containing the patch.
1737 - added libusb lib flags to tools/ and examples/ makefiles,
1738 and tweaked configure.ac with a better default,
1739 to build cleanly on RHEL 4
1740 - modified rpm/barry.spec:
1741 - does not create doc-only barry base package anymore
1742 - fixed "barry-backup" typo
1743 - removed the patch step, as version 0.7 shouldn't need it
1744 - added license file to each package
1745 - commented out console perms scripts, pending mailing list
1748 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to fix RHEL4 compile issues
1749 - fixed 80 column wrapping error in barry.spec, thanks to Troy Engel
1751 - applied Troy Engel's udev permissions patch for Redhat/Fedora
1752 systems, which automatically set the ownership of a
1753 newly plugged in device to the currently logged in console
1755 - added udev/README to document what all those files are for...
1756 part of the text comes from the sourceforge comment
1757 on the above udev permissions patch from Troy Engel
1758 - uncommented the console perms scripts for rpm/barry.spec
1759 - added libglademm-2.4 to gui/README's dependency list
1760 - made usbwrap.* calls more threadsafe
1761 - added Usb::Timeout exception for timeout errors
1762 - added preliminary UsbSerData support to library for GPRS modem
1763 functionality, using Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry's serdata.c
1765 - added overloaded Socket::Send() for sending without receiving
1766 - added preliminary pppob command line tool
1772 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1775 - build system tweaks for opensync-plugin, and added a buildgen.sh
1777 - added better debug messages in probe.cc and usbwrap.cc's
1778 device discovery code
1779 - changed error handling for null interface->altsetting pointers
1780 when doing device discovery in usbwrap.cc. Seems that
1781 some devices report a higher number in bNumInterfaces
1782 than are really available... in this case, let's
1783 just ignore the missing data and assume success
1784 - applied udev script patch #1663986 from Troy Engel
1785 - applied barry-bcharge.spec patch #1672178 from Troy Engel
1786 - ReleaseChecklist update
1787 - added rpm/README based on Troy Engel's patch notes
1788 - updated new barry-bcharge.spec for version 0.7, removing patch
1791 Release: version 0.6 - 2007/02/28
1792 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1794 - fixed size checks for device database records larger than 64K
1795 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
1796 - added initial release maintainer scripts
1797 - fixed odd backup success message in GUI when doing a backup with
1798 no databases selected in configuration
1799 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
1800 - added udev permissions file patch from Michael Brown
1801 - added Michael Brown to AUTHORS
1802 - updated README, gui/README, and doc/USB-capture.txt
1803 - added -o command line switch to bcharge.cc, and updated man page
1805 - changed library behaviour so it only turns on libusb debug output
1806 if in data dump mode. In btool, -v controls this output.
1807 - minor stream formatting fix in btool
1808 - added OpenSSL dependency to build for password hash support
1809 - made debug dout() output conditional on Init() flag... In btool,
1810 -v now controls this as well
1811 - reverse engineered more of the initial probe packets, and
1812 implemented probing in struct based code... changes include:
1813 - added support for "attribute fetch" packets, used at
1814 the beginning of USB conversations
1815 - defined object/attribute id codes for the PIN number
1816 - made Protocol::SocketCommand more robust, and implemented
1817 its sequence number behaviour
1818 - moved ModeSelectCommand into SocketCommand, as it is a
1819 socket 0 level command
1820 - added initial protocol struct: PasswordChallenge
1821 - renamed Barry::Packet to DBPacket
1822 - added ZeroPacket for socket 0 packet creation and analysis
1823 - Barry::Packet is now the base class for the above
1824 - implemented socket 0 behaviour in socket.cc
1825 - changed return values for Send/Receive/Packet/NextRecord
1826 members in the Socket class from bool to void, as they
1827 don't generate errors themselves, but only can
1828 have an error if Usb::Device throws an exception.
1829 Cleaned up all code that called these members as well.
1830 - removed "last status" from Socket class as it was unused
1831 - updated probe.cc to use new socket 0 implementation
1832 - removed two of the hard coded packet handshakes in favour
1834 - updated controller.cc:
1835 - uses new socket 0 implementation
1836 - removed "flag" hack when opening sockets and
1837 selecting modes, as it should use the
1838 socket 0 sequence number
1839 - added initial, incomplete prototype header for the C API
1840 - updated some .cvsignore files
1842 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt, adding rpm spec file
1843 - added the following to ZeroPacket:
1848 - moved Command() to base Packet class
1849 - added comments to protostructs.h and size constants for the
1850 new PasswordChallenge struct
1851 - added password support to Socket and Controller classes
1852 Thanks to Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry for the openssl
1853 password hashing logic.
1854 - updated btool to use new password support, and updated its man page
1856 - updated Doxygen input files and version, and added to ReleaseChecklist
1857 - fixed btool PIN output for LDIF mode, now commented in output
1858 - major LDIF overhaul:
1859 - split LDIF specific code out of the record class and
1861 - fixed "full name" behaviour that added an extra space
1862 in dn attributes, as reported by Troy Engel
1863 - added support for mapping of LDIF attributes to Barry
1865 - fixed base64 handling, so attributes are only so encoded
1867 - fixed base64 attribute reading inconsistency... some
1868 notes fields were missed in old version if not
1870 - added support for specifying alternate attribute for
1871 constructing a FQDN, instead of just "cn"
1872 - updated btool and upldif to use new features
1873 - large update to btool manpage
1874 - fixed initialization bug in Contact constructor (missed RecType)
1876 - added ktrans.cc to make reading of kernel usbfs_snoop logs easier
1877 - removed commented code from translate.cc
1878 - added Pearl handshake support to bcharge.cc, which resets the
1879 Pearl so that the vendor specific 0xFF class exists.
1880 This should allow use of btool on the Pearl.
1881 - added Data::AppendHexString to data.cc
1882 - added better probing support for the Pearl, so it detects the
1883 Product ID 0x0004 mode, and does a search for class 0xFF
1884 instead of hardcoding it.
1886 - applied README patch from Ian Darwin
1887 - minor tweaks to README
1888 - added missing errno.h header in src/usbwrap.cc for AMD64
1889 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting the bug.
1890 - tightened up size checks in Data::ReleaseBuffer()
1891 - stable libusb *does* return the actual length of the USB packet...
1892 fixed this in usbwrap.cc to set the actual size of read data,
1893 and removed the size hacks elsewhere in the code:
1894 probe.cc, protocol.cc, socket.cc, usbwrap.cc
1896 - added proper return codes for error conditions in btool.cc
1897 - clarified some stream output code in the library, for hex/dec numbers
1898 - removed old, non-working connect.cc test program
1899 - added iomanip to debug.h
1900 - changed usbwrap to call libusb again if EINTR and EAGAIN
1901 This should fix one of the OpenBSD issues
1904 - fixed bug in barrybackup GUI that didn't create the target path
1905 if the user didn't do Edit | Config first.
1906 Thanks to Ian Darwin for reporting the bug.
1907 - applied gui/src/ConfigFile.cc header fix patch for OpenBSD
1910 - added initial btool.1 man page from Ian Darwin
1911 - updated man/Makefile.am for new btool.1
1913 - applied btool -h help clarification patch from Ian Darwin
1915 - reworked exception hierarchy, so applications can handle all
1916 Barry related exceptions, including Usb errors, with
1917 one base class: Barry::Error
1918 - fixed all the ripple changes this caused throughout the codebase
1919 - added BadPassword exception
1925 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1926 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1927 - added usb-level breset.cc command line tool
1928 - fixed bug in gui/src/tarfile.* for systems where
1929 sizeof(int) != sizeof(void*)
1930 - TarFile class now uses a plugin style for the compression
1931 operations, to allow for threadsafe versions if needed
1933 - also fixed leaked file handle bug in open_compressed()
1934 - Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this for 64bit systems
1935 - minor signed comparison fixes in the library
1936 - added better protocol data dumping code in probe.cc
1937 - added Usb::Device::BulkDrain(), to prevent Barry from hanging
1938 due to pending reads
1940 Release: version 0.5 - 2007/01/26
1941 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1943 - added missing errno.h header to gui/src/util.cc
1944 - lots more endian fixes after testing on iMac
1945 - iostream output size fixes
1946 - added option to btool to reset the device via software
1947 - beefed up exception handling in barrybackup
1948 - checked in opensync work-in-progress: trace logging, pointer bugfix
1949 this is still experimental
1950 - added aboutdialog.* files from gtkmm24 2.10.6, so we have a dialog
1951 class for systems running older versions of gtkmm, like
1953 - uncommented the about box menu handler
1954 - added "cleanall" option to root buildgen.sh script
1955 - update ReleaseChecklist.txt
1956 - removed CVS auto-history strings from aboutdialog.*
1958 - found a link between the unknown field in tagged protocol headers
1959 and the unknown field in RecordStateTable entries. This
1960 field matters when uploading certain databases, such as
1961 Browser Options. It is unknown what this field really
1962 means, but we're calling it RecType. Updated the API
1963 to use this in all parser objects and builder objects
1964 and record objects that use it.
1965 - changed some uses of uint64_t to uint32_t, in Contact and
1966 Calendar record objects... unique IDs only seem to be
1968 - added new static function to record classes: GetDefaultRecType()
1969 This returns the default rectype that should work
1970 for that record. Ideally this should be retrieved from
1971 the device, but in the case where a database has no
1972 records, this info would be good to know.
1973 - updated convenience template function Controller::AddRecordByType()
1974 to use GetDefaultRecType()
1975 - documented the recurrence data and how to use it in Calendar objects
1976 - added data debug output for incoming USB packets in the
1977 socket class... when we ported to the stable libusb
1978 we lost some of the verbose output... this should get it
1979 back. (In the official release, you need to uncomment
1980 ddout() in debug.h for the full blast of debug output).
1981 - backup GUI updates:
1982 - changed error_done signal into a pure error signal,
1983 and changed the logic so the restore continues
1984 even if there was a protocol error on one database
1985 - changed status bar messages to show what's happening
1986 i.e. Backup or Restore
1987 - default to not restore the "Handheld Agent" database as
1988 it appears to be read-only on the device
1989 - added temporary Restore & Backup mode for debugging
1990 - added extra hyphen to backup files to show date/time better
1991 - updated GUI to save and restore the new RecType field
1992 supported now by the library
1994 - added future considerations to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1995 - applied big endian patch from Jonathan Hudson
1997 - removed endian.h include from barry.h, since applications
1998 using the library should not care about endianness
1999 - hard coded the path to config.h in endian.h
2000 so that endian.h never makes it into the final
2002 - removed DEFAULT_INCLUDES setting from src/Makefile.am
2004 - removed config.h dependency in btool.cc and used library
2005 Version call instead
2006 - added big/little endian text to the Barry::Version call
2008 - fixed install location of bcharge when building with ./configure;
2009 now goes to sbin/ for both source compile and binary packages
2010 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this bug.
2012 - added smarter timeout values to controller, and allowed
2013 timeout overrides in the packet, socket, and usbwrap code...
2014 extra timeouts are needed for erasing databases for
2016 - added an explicit DataDumpParser class to btool.cc, as the
2017 library doesn't always have extreme verbose debugging on...
2018 this makes sure anyone can always get raw database packets
2019 through btool, for development
2020 - added thread callback signals for error finishes and erase_db
2021 operations, so the GUI is updated properly
2022 - more GUI cleanups (status bar updates, etc)
2023 - finished implementation of GUI restore
2024 - fixed gtkmm/glibmm exception handling when the exceptions
2025 occur in sigc signal handlers... in that case,
2026 exceptions need to be handled with
2027 Glib::add_exception_handler()
2028 - added filename-only reading support to TarFile class
2029 - added pending gui/TODO items
2031 - backup GUI now properly shows progress
2032 - the buttons become insensitive when backup is busy
2033 - refactored directory check code, and added mkdir check
2034 when to the backup setup (so the directory exists
2035 when we try to write to it)
2036 - updated code to use Barry::Data in new namespace
2038 - moved Data class into Barry namespace
2040 - updated copyright dates for the new year
2041 - clarified exception message in controller.cc
2042 - fixed pointer initialization bug in controller.cc
2043 - added documentation comments to parser.h and builder.h
2044 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt
2046 - changed Barry library configure scripts to make better
2047 use of pkg-config for autodetecting dependencies
2048 - added initial Barry Backup GUI (gui/ directory), capable of making
2049 backups only at this point
2051 - added doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
2052 - added version API, returning version number and string
2053 - added Troy Engel to AUTHORS
2054 - added special case to bcharge.cc for the Blackberry Pearl,
2055 which doesn't reset itself after the charge handshake
2056 Thanks to Troy Engel for testing.
2058 - added pkg-config support for the library (libbarry-0.pc.in)
2059 - fixed compile error on g++ 3.3 systems (missing stdint.h
2061 - fixed protocol hang at end of Controller operation... in
2062 controller destructor, it was deleting the USB interface
2063 before closing the socket at the BlackBerry level, thereby
2064 leaving the device in Desktop mode
2066 - support the newer udev packages on Ubuntu, which need slightly
2068 - modified bcharge.cc to search for Pearl devices too.
2070 - added Pearl product ID to probe code, but likely not functional
2071 yet until we find someone able to get a USB capture for us
2073 - version bump in configure.ac and src/Makefile.am
2075 Release: version 0.4 - 2006/12/29
2076 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2078 - added bcharge.cc to the tools/ directory (whoohoo!)
2079 - added initial release version of rpm/barry.spec (aka bcharge.spec)
2080 This begins the barry binary release, currently only
2081 including the bcharge utility, but possibly more in
2082 the future. Future binary packages will likely include
2083 libbarry, libbarry-devel, etc, which barry will then
2085 - added udev rule script for BlackBerry devices
2086 - added man/ directory and bcharge.1 manpage
2087 - added debian/ directory for building deb packages, with initial
2089 - added rpm/make-rpm-tarball.sh for building RPMs
2090 - split out technical docs into separate libbarry.docs file for
2091 a future Debian install
2092 - added more cleaning to buildgen.sh
2093 - added new udev rule file for Debian stable
2094 - hardcoded g++ to 3.3 in debian/rules as I have multiple versions
2095 on my system and need to compile releases with stable
2097 - ported Barry to use the stable branch of libusb
2098 NOTE: no longer depends on the devel libusb tarball!
2099 Just use your distro's libusb packages.
2100 - fixed more endian issues
2101 - minor update to TODO
2103 - moved Exceptions, Hacking, and VersionNotes to doc/
2104 - added doc/USB-capture.txt
2106 - added Controller::AddRecord() and template helper
2107 - added beginning version of generic RecordFetch<> template
2108 - set default of Barry::Init() to false (no data dump mode)
2109 - added examples/ directory, with first addcontact.cc example
2111 - added autoconf support based on Peter McAlpine's patch
2112 - renamed Makefiles to Makefile.orig and added script to turn
2113 on old build system if wanted
2114 - fixed boost-specific error path in btool
2115 - moved platform specific code out of time.h and into time.cc
2116 - moved btool.cc, translate.cc, and upldif.cc out of src/ and
2117 into their own tools/ subdirectory
2118 - added NEWS file to make autotools happy
2119 - added a "clean" option to the buildgen.sh script... maintainer's
2121 - reworked autoconf and automake files, to support
2122 barry as a library, to move the programs into their
2123 own tools directory, and support a proper installation
2124 - fixed headers in parser.h, btool.cc, and upldif.cc to work
2125 properly when installed standalone
2126 - added tools/Makefile.plain for testing compiling against
2127 installed barry library
2128 - added commentary on version number system
2129 - removed Makefile.conf and Makefile.orig, as new autoconf
2130 system supercedes it
2131 - added support for boost serialization library in autoconf build
2132 - added library version number to autoconf build
2133 - changed boost flag to __BARRY_BOOST_MODE__ to avoid collisions
2134 - removed debug.h dependency from btool.cc
2135 - removed libusb check in favour of specific --with-libusb
2136 option... may need to revisit this later
2137 - quick installation update in README
2139 - fixed some missed endian conversions in record.cc and added
2141 - fixed endian issues in time.h

2143 the time zone table for better defaults in North America
2144 - added btool and upldif to the make install sequence
2145 - added support for Calendar recurrence data
2146 - small doc/TimeZones.txt update
2148 - added BlackBerry time zone code list, reverse engineered from a 7750
2149 - added GetTimeZone() to convert device time zone codes to useful data
2151 Release: version 0.0.3 - 2006/11/24
2152 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2154 - added return code check to Controller::SaveDatabase()
2155 - fixed Data() class constructor, so it doesn't auto-convert
2157 - fixed size checking bug in Packet::ReturnCode() that caused
2158 uploading to device to fail
2160 - added Exceptions doc file, documenting the C++ exceptions used,
2162 - fixed small bug in 'make install' which didn't build first
2163 - minor documentation and cleanup in upldif.cc
2164 - added utility functions to the RecordStateTable class,
2165 GetIndex() and MakeNewRecordId()
2166 - changed btool so that the -d command modifiers can be
2167 specified multiple times to work with multiple records
2169 - added Calendar sync code to the opensync module (not complete)
2170 - cleaned up exception handling in the opensync module, making
2171 more use of the base exception to make sure no
2172 exceptions leak into the C library code
2174 Release: version 0.0.2 - 2006/10/12
2175 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2177 - fixed casting error in opensync module
2178 - minor updates to documentation to prepare for release
2180 - added stdint.h to parser.h for uint32_t. Thanks Ron Gage for
2183 - large refactoring of the packet parsing and building code,
2184 splitting the code into 3 groups:
2185 - record: handles record specific parsing and building...
2186 this is mostly subfields with CommonField structs
2187 as their headers, but sometimes has a specific
2188 header of its own, in the case of email
2189 Note: email's header is as yet undecoded.
2190 Record does not know the details of the packet
2191 formats, only the formats of its own record data.
2192 - packet: handles building of complete command packets
2193 and handles parsing of commonly used header values,
2194 providing an API for it... packet does not know
2195 the record format details, but does know the
2196 details of each Database Operation (protocol.h)
2198 So far, it seems that there is a real separation
2199 of operation formats and record formats, with the
2200 record formats being the same even with different
2201 database operation codes (GET_RECORDS /
2202 OLD_GET_RECORDS), which was not confirmed before.
2203 See the header size of the email record after
2205 - controller: handles device state, and the management of
2206 sockets, commands, and checking for response values.
2207 The Controller object does not know the format
2208 of either the record or the packet it is sending,
2209 but does know the protocol handshake logic used
2210 to talk to the device.
2211 - implemented SetRecord (SET_RECORD_BY_INDEX)... syncing, here
2213 - spelling correction in opensync-plugin/AUTHORS
2215 - added sample hotplug scripts
2216 - added .cvsignore files for doxygen and opensync directories
2217 - added src/endian.h... still need to add configure support to
2218 handle non-little-endian machines
2219 - added exception handler in opensync plugin commit_change()
2220 - removed the device reset code in probe.cc, as resetting a device
2221 can renumber the devices in /proc on kernel 2.4.x,
2222 and cause a failure to reach the device...
2223 FIXME - this should be changed someday to reset if probing
2224 fails, and restart the probe on reset, as sometimes
2225 the blackberry devices respond differently when not reset
2226 Ideally, the probe protocol should be properly reverse
2228 - added support for retrieving record state table, which is needed
2230 - added support for retrieving, deleting, and clearing the dirty
2231 flags of individual blackberry device records
2232 - added endian macros throughout the code
2234 - added opensync-plugin to root Makefile's clean
2235 - updated time conversion calls to match opensync's latest SVN
2236 - added opensync_change_set_changetype() (only add for now,
2238 - removed slow sync functions for now
2240 - added quick "install" makefile target, to src/install by default
2241 - added static library target... this is temporary until autoconf
2242 stuff is added properly... needed for the opensync plugin
2243 - documented in comments that Barry::BError is intended to be
2244 the base classes for all exceptions
2245 - added first round of implementation of an opensync plugin, based
2246 on the example plugin code from the opensync sources
2248 - added to Contact record class:
2250 - ReadLdif() to load and parse LDAP data
2251 - added fragmented send support to Socket class
2252 - added Probe::FindActive() to make client programs more streamlined
2253 - fixed hex/decimal printing of record counts in btool
2254 - added upldif.cc, a utility to take ldapsearch output on stdin
2255 and upload it to a blackberry
2256 - updated src/.cvsignore
2258 - added parsing of service book fields:
2260 - old and new unique ID (UID)
2262 - old and new description
2264 - bes domain / domain
2265 - date change in legal.txt
2266 - added initial parsing of ServiceBook field 0x09, and calling it
2267 ServiceBookConfig for now, for lack of a better name
2268 - added parsing for ServiceBook field 0x02 on 72xx Blackberries...
2269 seems to be a name or description, but doesn't appear
2270 in the device's own GUI... called "Hidden Name" for now
2272 - added ServiceBook record class and parser code, based on some
2273 of Ron Gage's reverse engineering... code is by Chris Frey
2274 - added AUTHORS file
2275 - fixed the libusb set_configuration/claim_interface order
2276 bug in controller.{h,cc}... already fixed in probe,
2277 but not controller. Thanks Ron Gage for finding this.
2279 - renamed Changelog to ChangeLog in preparation for autoconf
2280 - renamed Todo to TODO in preparation for autoconf
2282 - make clean cleans up tests properly now
2284 - turned source code browsing on in Doxyfile
2285 - added LoadDatabaseByName() and LoadDatabaseByType() template members
2286 to the Controller class
2287 - new file: controllertmpl.h
2288 - documentation fixes in builder.h
2289 - added static GetDBName() functions to all record classes, in
2290 support of the template Controller functions
2291 - fleshed out DatabaseDatabase::GetDBNumber() and GetDBName(),
2292 returning errors properly
2293 - documented sample btool.cc code better, and added example
2294 of Controller template member usage
2296 - copyright dates updated for 2006
2298 - backed out update to latest libusb DEVEL tree, since it is buggy.
2299 Stick with libusb 2005/11/26
2301 - added clean target to convenience Makefile
2302 - added Boost to list of dependencies in README
2303 - fixed minor compile warnings in base64.cc
2304 - fixed new USB discovery code, and changed endpoint usage to use
2305 it, instead of the READ_ENDPOINT and WRITE_ENDPOINT
2306 constants... constants are now removed
2307 common.h, controller.cc, probe.cc, probe.h, usbwrap.cc
2308 - added ClearHalt() to Usb::Device (usbwrap.cc)
2309 - updated usbwrap.h to match latest libusb CVS devel tree
2310 - updated README to refer to 2005/12/30 libusb CVS devel tree
2311 - added roadmap to Todo list
2313 - added convenience Makefile in root directory
2314 - added Hacking document
2315 - minor touchups to README
2316 - added caution warning to README, since this release will support
2317 delete / overwrite / upload functionality
2318 - minor compile order change in Makefile (speed reasons)
2319 - added dynamic endpoint discovery to probe.cc
2320 - changed claim_interface/set_configuration() function call order in
2321 probe.cc based on feedback on the libusb mailing list
2322 - added USB discovery code to usbwrap.{h,cc}
2324 - fixed packing bug in new upload header struct
2325 - renamed CommonField union from data to u to be consistent
2326 - added return_code field to DBAccess struct, for error checking
2327 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
2328 throw exception in controller.cc
2329 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
2330 contact data to the device, it may be important to write
2331 group link items last, since they reference other contacts...
2332 This needs to be tested, and if not required, removed.
2333 - added GROUP_FLAG field code to Contact parser class
2334 - fixed offset bug in Contact and Calendar Build() functions

2379 - changed headers so that any low level protocol-specific sizes and
2380 structs are completely hidden in the library...
2381 this adds library-only header: protostructs.h

2406 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
2407 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
2408 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
2409 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
2410 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
2411 Observed maximum blank count: 1
2412 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
2413 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
2414 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
2415 seem to need more time...)
2416 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
2417 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
2418 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
2419 with Python, if used(?)
2420 - added Message class for Email records
2421 - removed the "Get*" database functions and replaced with
2422 general LoadDatabase() call, which loads any database
2423 available, and parses it with a Parser object
2424 - added GetDBID() for searching for database numbers via name
2425 - added test code to retrieve and display all email
2426 - cleaned up comments

2435 - added header comments to convo.awk script
2436 - removed Test() function in Controller object, and made class
2437 better suited to its general API purpose
2438 - changed OpenMode() so it loads command table and DBDB... it is now
2439 a public API function
2440 - moved Controller test code to btool.cc and made tool more
2441 generically useful... can now download any DB by name on
2443 - added mode checks to Controller
2444 - added -t and -d command line options to btool
2445 - added base64 routines from John Walker / Fourmilab and Citadel/UX
2446 - converted base64 routines into an API, instead of hardcoded

2451 - increased USB default timeout to 2 seconds
2452 - fixed formatting bug in Data operator<< output
2453 - cleaned up the protocol packet structs, getting rid of the
2454 confusing param/simple split... param is now the tableCmd
2455 from the Command Table
2456 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
2457 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
2458 the Cassis spec more closely
2459 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing
2460 - fixed Socket::Close() so on error, socket flags are reset.
2461 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
2464 - added Doxyfile to the project
2466 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
2467 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
2468 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent
2470 - added Command Table parsing and protocol support
2471 Blackberry class, and CommandTable record class
2472 - added Database database parsing and protocol support
2473 Blackberry class and DatabaseDatabase record class
2474 - added Address book retrieval support - dumps data to stdout for now
2475 - fixed bug in CopyOnWrite mode in Data class, where could allocate
2476 less buffer than data copied
2477 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
2478 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
2479 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
2480 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
2482 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
2483 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
2485 - implemented socket::Close()
2486 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0

2488 - fixed input handling bug in translate.cc
2490 - added .cvsignore files to project

2495 - added command line parameters to bbtool.cc
2497 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
2498 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
2499 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
2501 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
2502 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
2503 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
2504 - regular debug output
2505 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
2506 syslog someday, and never turned off)
2507 - raw data dump output
2508 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
2509 numbers into english (limited success)
2510 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
2511 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
2512 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
2513 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
2514 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
2515 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
2516 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
2517 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
2518 for socket 0 operations.
2519 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
2523 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
2524 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
2525 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
2526 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
2528 - syncberry tree started
