1 Release: version 0.9 - 2007/08/??
2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 2007/09/20
4 - added filename to power/state error message in bcharge.cc
5 2007/09/13
6 - fixed some of the release build scripts and added support for
7 automated opensuse 10.2 builds
8 - fixed build target to i386
9 - changed scripts to add to PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable instead
10 of overwriting it
11 2007/09/07
12 - added website docs to doc/www... these are out of date at the
13 moment, and hopefully by including them here, they
14 will be updated more frequently
15 2007/09/05
16 - applied Simon Ruggier's build system patch that allowed a build
17 of all 3 components from the root directory and fixed the
18 configure scripts to support external build directories
19 - reordered clean commands in the buildgen.sh scripts, and removed
20 the INSTALL files, since they are auto-generated by autoconf
21 - removed extraneous buildgen.sh calls in maintainer scripts
22 - added Simon Ruggier to AUTHORS
23 - added explanatory note to 3 stage test build process in
24 maintainer script
25 2007/08/24
26 - fixed Category handling in the Contact record class, to
27 parse the comma separated string into an array,
28 and back
29 Note: this involves a change to the boost serialization
30 and will affect backward compatibility with
31 old serialization datafiles
32 - added Category to examples/addcontact.cc
33 - added Category support to the opensync plugin
34 2007/08/23
35 - fixed wrong read/write in btool output (oops)
36 - added BadSize exception, and changed CheckSize() function
37 to throw it on error
38 - changed backup GUI to catch BadSize exceptions on initial
39 connect, and try a reset if that error occurs, since
40 that likely means the device didn't shutdown properly
41 - fixed in opensync plugin:
42 - some vcard data contains types codes in capital letters,
43 so added lower case conversion routine
44 - changed the order of address lines, so that address1
45 is the street, address2 is the extended address,
46 and address3 is the PO Box. The Blackberry
47 doesn't seem to have any PO Box field.
48 2007/08/20
49 - added -e endpoint override option to btool
50 - added status message to endpoint override
51 2007/08/18
52 - added configure check for strnlen, and implementation for
53 systems that don't have it, or that have it implemented
54 incorrectly. Went a little paranoid here, since
55 AC_FUNC_STRNLEN doesn't set a define in config.h,
56 so I had to do it manually, and check in case autoconf
57 changes in the future... ugh. See src/strnlen.h for
58 the gory details.
59 - added code in probe.cc to fetch the device's description.
60 The description is now part of the probe results
61 along with the PIN. Updates to protocol.h, adding
62 a new attribute definition.
63 Thanks to Rick Scott for pointing out the code in
64 XmBlackberry where he implemented this first.
65 - fixed header dependency in record-internal.h
66 - updated the "required autoconf" version to 2.61 for root build
67 - moved nested structs out of the record classes that contain them,
68 in order to better support SWIG and Python
69 2007/08/17
70 - changed bcharge to use getopt() for its argument processing
71 - added options -p and -s to bcharge, to adjust usb suspend
72 settings automatically where possible
73 - updated the udev rules to use the new bcharge settings
74 - updated the bcharge man page with the new arguments
75 2007/08/16
76 - cleaned up Usb exception handling, moving libusb error code
77 processing into the Usb::Error exception class.
78 error.cc is now an empty shell
79 - added return codes to the Usb::Error exceptions
80 - removed aboutdialog.{h,cc} from the backup GUI since even
81 Debian stable now has up-to-date gtkmm libraries
82 - added more user friendly error message for the "device busy"
83 case, recommending 'rmmod usb_storage'.
84 2007/08/09
85 - added better error checking to bcharge.cc
86 - version bump:
87 - configure.ac
88 - src/Makefile.am
89 - src/version.cc
90 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
91 - src/Doxygen
92 - rpm/barry.spec
93 - debian/changelog
94 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
95 - removed usb_set_configuration() check from bcharge.cc, since
96 that may fail under normal operation, in this case
98 Release: version 0.8 - 2007/08/03
99 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
100 2007/08/03
101 - moved Interface implementation to usbwrap.cc file
102 - added dout debugging messages to usbwrap.cc
103 - clarified unhandled packet error message in socket.cc
104 - added temporary workaround in opensync-plugin environment's
105 Reconnect(), for odd message seen on newer Blackberry
106 devices
107 - fixing issues with Brian Edginton's MessageRecord patch (2007/06/29)
108 - fixed missing size check in message oriented ParseHeader()
109 - fixed endian conversion issues (also found one pre-existing
110 endian bug in the process)
111 - moved message timestamp converter code to time.cc
112 - added Barry version number to opensync plugin name
113 - changed maintainer scripts and rpm.spec to use bzip2 instead of gzip
114 - added opensync-plugin to configure script build
115 - added -S option to btool, to list supported parsers and builders
116 - slight change to opensync-plugin/buildgen.sh to cleanup config.h.in~
117 - opensync-plugin/README update
118 - added opensync-plugin/patches for others who may be building and
119 testing the plugin with OpenSync 0.22
120 - added debian package build scripts to maintainer/
121 2007/08/01
122 - added entry to doc/TroubleShooting.txt
123 2007/07/28
124 - added doc/TroubleShooting.txt
125 2007/07/27
126 - opensync plugin:
127 - fixed bug in vcard.cc that was using the FN field
128 for the broken-down name instead of N
129 - added dbId and dbName to DatabaseSyncState
130 - added Reconnect() functionality to BarryEnvironment class
131 and moved connect logic out of barry_sync.cc
132 - changed the batch commit functionality in barry_sync.cc
133 to single-change-commit. Why? Because opensync
134 0.22 groups all batch changes into one group
135 and calls one batch commit function, even if you
136 registered two. Moving to single change commit
137 mode removes a chunk of unneccessary code
138 from the plugin as well, and can in theory
139 ease memory pressure in the library.
140 - added FinishSync() to perform actions needed on successful
141 syncing completion
142 - disconnect on successful sync completion, and reconnect,
143 since the device's dirty flags don't seem to
144 be updated until a disconnect occurs.
145 2007/07/26
146 - added ReadDataArray() to data.h, using an istream instead of
147 requiring a file
148 - added raw data version of BuildField() to record-internal.h
149 This is so that btool doesn't add extra null terminators
150 to unknown data, when restoring with option -s
151 - fixed bugs in r_contact.cc:
152 - fixed bug that caused a LastName/FirstName swap
153 if FirstName was empty and you wrote a contact
154 record into the device.... First/Last Name
155 fields are position sensitive, and the code
156 was missing the empty FirstName case on writing
157 - fixed bug in BuildFields() and Dump() where they
158 were not updated to handle the new field
159 table added for the postal address changes
160 on 2007/07/20, oops
161 - opensync plugin:
162 - changed the plugin config file, so it is possible to
163 turn debug output on/off without recompiling
164 - moved the standalone Map2Uid() function into
165 the DatabaseSyncState class, and changed the
166 code to produce "contact-#" and "calendar-#"
167 UID strings, instead of just numbers
168 - changed default PIN to -1, so that if the user doesn't
169 configure properly, it will fail... this is a
170 safety measure to avoid syncing with different
171 devices and corrupting the cache/idmap...
172 this should be fixed someday, to handle this
173 automatically
174 On second thought... is this right? Perhaps
175 it is better to fail if the PIN is not what
176 is expected, so a user doesn't accidentally
177 sync the wrong device and lose data.
178 Actions to take on new PIN:
179 - force slow_sync, or
180 - fail
181 - incorporated the new VCardConverter code into the
182 main barry_sync.cc plugin code
183 - fixed bug that did not clear the devices dirty flags
184 in the case where a sync only read data from it,
185 and didn't write
186 - changed PIN error message number to hex
187 2007/07/20
188 - minor wording change in backup GUI prompt: "Backup working..." to
189 "Backup in progress..."
190 - renamed Contact class's Title field to JobTitle for clarity
191 - added record function ParseFieldString(), which properly handles
192 strings from the device that have multiple null terminators,
193 and changed the record parsing code to use this new function
194 - moved FullName() function from ldif.cc to r_contact.cc since it
195 is generally useful in areas outside of LDIF processing
196 - refactored postal addresses in the Contact record class into
197 a new class called PostalAddress
198 - renamed Address class in record.h to EmailAddress
199 - moved Contact::GetPostalAddress() to record.cc as part of the
200 new PostalAddress class and renamed it
201 PostalAddress::GetLabel()
202 - opensync plugin:
203 - refactored vformat helpers into separate base class
204 called vBase
205 - added vCard converter class
206 - commented out the code that skipped over the adding
207 of empty attribute values and parameters,
208 since VCARD depends on some of this behaviour
209 - movified vformat.c:vformat_find_attribute() to take
210 an extra nth argument, in order to search
211 for multiple attributes with the same name...
212 the way this is coded is a bit inefficient...
213 but we're moving away from vformat when we move
214 to OpenSync 0.3x / 0.40, so this is just temporary
215 pain
216 2007/07/19
217 - added SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device" to example udev rules, in order
218 to avoid running bcharge for each endpoint that is
219 added by udev, when first plugged in. Running bcharge
220 back-to-back multiple times can crash some
221 Blackberries.
222 2007/07/14
223 - opensync plugin:
224 - fixed ID mapping bug in the case of a non-numeric UID
225 from syncing external -> Barry, and then the
226 new Barry ID would look like a new change
227 when syncing back from Barry -> external.
228 - added support for slow sync
229 - added clear() to idmap class
230 - added vformat attr parameter extraction class
231 - added more trace logging during vformat/Barry conversions
232 - added Notification time support
233 - handled "all day" vformat special case, when DTEND
234 does not exist in a vformat data block
235 - changed the min1900_t time conversion functions to handle
236 the 0xffffffff special case, when notifications
237 are turned off on a calendar event (src/time.cc)
238 - also made the calendar data dump output clearer for
239 disabled timestamps, and added debug output
240 for the raw min1900 value, in case there are more
241 special cases in the future
242 2007/07/13
243 - fixed null pointer access in opensync's HasMultipleVEvents()
244 2007/07/12
245 - upper management directive: revert all OpenSync 0.3x changes
246 and proceed with OpenSync 0.22. Reverting the
247 opensync-plugin/src tree to Barry 0.7 status.
248 2007/07/06
249 - reorganized exception and trace code in opensync plugin
250 - added XmlToCalendar() function, based on unfinished opensync
251 library API that is not yet finished... will be
252 committed to opensync svn tree when complete
253 - added OSyncXMLField logger to plugin trace class
254 2007/06/29
255 - applied email MessageRecord patch from Brian Edginton (thanks!)
256 - updated Message::Dump() to output more valid mbox data...
257 the goal is to be able to do:
258 btool -d "Messages" > email.mbox
259 mutt -f email.mbox
260 - changed some TODO's to FIXME's to keep it grep-consistent
261 - applied Folder support patch from Brian Edginton
262 - fixed pedantic compile warnings, and changed order in src/Makefile.am
263 - removed unneeded cast in src/r_folder.cc
264 2007/06/28
265 - minor adjustment to ctags building in buildgen.sh
266 - applied patch from Brian Edginton for better boost detection
267 in configure.ac
268 - added boost usage message to btool -h output
269 2007/06/21
270 - more porting of OpenSync module to 0.30
271 - added ctags build for opensync source tree to buildgen.sh
272 2007/06/14
273 - changed PKG_CONFIG_PATH setting in rpm script, so that systems
274 like SuSE that have an extensive PKG_CONFIG_PATH
275 in general use will not break on build
276 - added PKG_CONFIG_PATH to debian script too, just in case :-)
277 - added debian/changelog to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
278 - added comment to rpm/barry.spec regarding SuSE RPM builds
279 2007/06/08
280 - applied patch from Niels de Vos fixing debian package build
281 dependency
282 - applied Brian Edginton's Saved Email Messages patch
283 - updated r_saved_messages.cc comment to match header
284 - added GetRecType()/GetUniqueId() to r_saved_messages.h, since
285 SetIds() is already there
286 - removed Address version of operator<<() from message related headers
287 and moved into record.h
288 - added std::hex to message related dumps, and changed output to
289 be more mbox-like
290 - updated doc/CodingStyle.txt to cover switch() statements
291 - opensync compiles again, with 0.30! (not functional yet)
292 - moving closer to more modular and reusable plugin functions
293 - updated release checklist for opensync version number
294 2007/06/07
295 - added doc/CodingStyle.txt... preliminary version
296 2007/06/06
297 - applied Brian Edginton's PIN message patch
298 - changes to PIN message patch:
299 - fixed missing backslash in src/Makefile.am
300 - fixed tab alignment throughout
301 - removed typedef from Address struct
302 - added clear() to Address... might as well, if it it is
303 going to be a standalone type
304 - fixed missing comma in PINMessageFieldLinks table
305 - changed MessageRecordId in PINMessage to load from a new
306 uint32_t field in CommonField, instead of piggy
307 backing on a field for other use
308 - did some testing and found that PINMessage's MessageRecordId
309 is the same as the RecordId given through the SetIds()
310 API... but these Id's are duplicated in the protocol...
311 RecordId is stored in the protocol header, while
312 MessageRecordId is stored in the record it self as
313 a common field... added RecType and RecordId to
314 PIN Message so that we store both of these
315 - updated AUTHORS
316 2007/05/27
317 - added item to gui/TODO
318 - applied Brian Edginton's s11n-boost.h patch
319 2007/05/25
320 - renamed template values to more consistent naming scheme
321 - applied memos and tasks patch from Brian Edginton, slightly
322 modified to split into the new separate files system
323 - changes to memos and tasks classes:
324 - reformatted the code to match coding style
325 (come on Brian) :-)
326 - added copyright notice
327 - changed class to singular (Memo, not Memos)
328 - placed in Barry namespace
329 - added #ifdef header protectors
330 - added new files to Makefile.am
331 - added new r_*.h headers to record.h
332 - added support for Memos and Tasks to tools/btool.cc, based on
333 Brian Edginton's patch
334 (currently commented out, for Boost library reasons):
335 - added doc/CommitPolicy.txt
336 - updated AUTHORS
337 2007/05/24
338 - added ctags generation to buildgen.sh
339 - applied record.{h,cc} fix patch from Brian Edginton
340 - ClassFlag
341 - FreeBusyFlag
342 - Clear() fixes
343 - fixed broken formatting in above patch
344 - refactored record parser classes into separate files for each
345 - changed the ConvertHtoB<> template to inline, as it caused
346 linker errors with the new file layout
347 2007/05/17
348 - fixed bug in Debian packaging that put util commands in
349 /bin and /sbin instead of /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
350 - commited byteswap.h replacement code from gm2net
351 - backup gui:
352 - removed unneeded debug messages on stdout
353 - changed the default for debug output to "off"
354 and added a command line option to turn
355 it on if necessary (--debug-output)
356 - command line option --help now also works
357 - fixed bug in Calendar class where it didn't initialize
358 RecType properly... and cleaned up other RecType
359 code to use the GetDefaultRecType() functions,
360 localizing the constants in one place
361 2007/05/11
362 - applied patches from Brian Edginton, parsing more
363 fields in Contact and Calendar records
364 - added Brian Edginton to AUTHORS
365 - reformatted record.{h,cc} to match the rest of the code,
366 removed commented out code, and removed mention of
367 Outlook from the comments.
368 - updated udev/10-blackberry.rules.Debian for Debian Etch
369 - updated debian/rules to use new udev rules file
370 - removed debian/postinst, as stable versions of Debian now
371 have a recent udev, and don't need the special handling
372 - updated Debian build scripts to build separate packages:
373 libbarry
374 libbarry-dev
375 barry-util
376 barrybackup-gui
377 - added menu support to Debian barrybackup-gui package
378 - made the buttons bigger in the backup GUI, as they were too
379 small on Debian Etch
380 - opensync plugin:
381 - more progress in porting to opensync 0.30, heavily
382 based on the example plugin in the opensync
383 svn tree... this is a work in progress, and so far
384 is incomplete
385 2007/05/04
386 - opensync plugin:
387 - partial porting to opensync 0.30 (in progress!)
388 - fixed bug in sync_done where it reported context error
389 and then success afterward
390 - checking in new INSTALL files based on Etch's autoconf run
391 - added item to gui's todo list
392 - bumped version numbers to 0.8 in:
393 - configure.ac
394 - src/Makefile.am
395 - src/version.cc
396 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
397 - src/Doxygen
398 - rpm/barry*.spec
400 Release: version 0.7 - 2007/05/02
401 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
402 2007/05/02
403 - added rpm building to maintainer/release scripts
404 - added "HEAD" feature to tarball creation script, for easier testing
405 - updated maintainer/README
406 - updated maintainer/release.sh to use new HEAD feature too
407 2007/05/01
408 - added pppob to rpm barry.spec
409 - bumped release number in barry.spec
410 2007/04/30
411 - opensync plugin:
412 - fixed size check bugs (strlen() == 0 when empty)
413 - finished refactoring calendar conversion routines
414 - started timezone parsing, but this may go away
415 if we use opensync 0.30's time functions and
416 xml data format...
417 - added development note to README
418 2007/04/29
419 - updated README and opensync-plugin/README with more current
420 build instructions
421 - opensync plugin:
422 - refactored some calendar conversion routines
423 - added Barry->vCalendar conversion for recurring appointments
424 2007/04/27
425 - opensync module:
426 - removed some unneeded trace logs
427 - fixed VEventConverter constructor bug, with uninitialized
428 m_Data pointer
429 - eased up the requirement that every calendar event
430 must have a summary... defaults to "<blank subject>"
431 if empty
432 - added more VCALENDAR fields to match Barry::Calendar record
433 - fixed case sensitive compares in vformat.c
434 2007/04/26
435 - opensync module work:
436 - added id map class to map string uid's from OpenSync to
437 numeric ID's from the Blackberry
438 - fixed bug in CommitChange() where it was still using
439 a hard coded calendar record state table
440 - added lots of logging throughout
441 - fixed bug where newly added records didn't use the
442 change object's uid, but created a new ID,
443 causing another sync on the next run
444 i.e. (CommitData_t was missing an argument)
445 - fixed bug where uninitialized notification time was
446 written to the Blackberry
447 - more opensync module work:
448 - refactored the environment class into another subclass
449 called DatabaseSyncState, and moved some stand-
450 alone functions from barry_sync.cc into
451 the environment classes
452 - added a tagged constructor to the trace class
453 - fixed idmap::Load() to clear map before loading
454 2007/04/20
455 - renamed barry-config to barry-sync, the default configuration
456 file for the opensync module... and filled it with
457 a sample configuration
458 - added code to update the calendar cache, and write it to disk
459 on success (opensync module)
460 - added code to clear dirty flags in the device (opensync module)
461 - allowed comments in the config file
462 - added vformat.c from libopensync 0.22, since the vformat
463 routines are not available from the plugin side
464 2007/04/19
465 - updated gui/TODO
466 - added -d switch to bcharge to switch back from 0001 to 0004 mode,
467 changed the auto-detection logic to ignore iProduct and
468 only use idProduct, and updated man page
469 - updated breset to recognize the Pearl in 00004 mode as well
470 - changed src/probe.cc logic to assume that the second endpoint
471 pair is the one needed for database communication, instead
472 of doing a reverse search from the end... newer Pearls
473 in Dual mode seem to have at least 3 or 4 endpoint pairs,
474 and the old search didn't always work
475 - applied sourceforge patch #1696884 from Peter Silva, updating
476 the Debian build for Etch, and including all files in one deb
477 - added Peter Silva to AUTHORS file
478 - uncommented the "make distclean" in debian/rules, and removed
479 the reliance on /tmp when installing 99-barry-perms.rules
480 - applied bb_task_format.txt patch from Peter Silva
481 - fixed each misspelling of "recurrance" to "recurrence"
482 - tweaked src/probe.cc again for paranoia's sake... start at
483 offset 1 if more than 1 endpoint pair, otherwise start
484 search at 0
485 - split up opensync module into multiple source files, and started
486 using the opensync vformat routines for parsing and building
487 the vevent20 data (experimental)
488 2007/04/04
489 - more incremental work on the opensync plugin, adding ADDED
490 and MODIFIED functionality... (experimental!)
491 2007/03/30
492 - added code to dump extra descriptors during device discovery,
493 if found
494 - bumped opensync version number in configure.ac, and made
495 the configure scripts more consistent with the rest
496 of the project
497 - fixed printf-format size bug in opensync module
498 2007/03/29
499 - applied patch from Niels de Vos, fixing deb udev rules for Pearl
500 - updated AUTHORS
501 - fixed extra space bug in LDIF output (added space when creating
502 FullName, even if there was no last name)
503 - fixed Address Book record parsing in Contact class... the
504 Blackberry database uses field id 0x20 for both the
505 first and last names, and if only a last name exists,
506 the first name will be empty. Fixed parser to handle
507 this special case, without relying on string length.
508 Thanks to Troy Engel for reporting above two LDIF bugs.
509 - added a few more constants to bcharge.cc
510 - renamed opensync's configure.in to configure.ac
511 2007/03/17
512 - fixed bcharge to avoid endless reset loop... oops
513 2007/03/16
514 - reorganized bcharge.cc to make it possible to switch between
515 Pearl modes 0004 and 0001
516 - added flag to BadPassword exception class, to signal whether
517 the library considers the device "out of retries" or not
518 - updated socket.cc for new BadPassword exception
519 - added special case to Controller class destructor to reset the
520 device if being destroyed in a half-open state... this is
521 a temporary fix until we understand how to handle
522 the "already open" message we get when opening the Desktop
523 in some cases
524 - added password prompt dialog to the backup GUI
525 - fixed possible memory leak in GUI's DeviceInterface::Connect()
526 2007/03/08
527 - committed Troy Engel's bbrules_mass_symlinks.patch, fixing
528 udev rules for the Pearl
529 - updated 10-blackberry.rules.Debian to match 10-blackberry.rules's
530 functionality
531 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to generate all required
532 RPM's... Thank you! Notes in the README taken from
533 the sourceforge tracker entry containing the patch.
534 - added libusb lib flags to tools/ and examples/ makefiles,
535 and tweaked configure.ac with a better default,
536 to build cleanly on RHEL 4
537 - modified rpm/barry.spec:
538 - does not create doc-only barry base package anymore
539 - fixed "barry-backup" typo
540 - removed the patch step, as version 0.7 shouldn't need it
541 - added license file to each package
542 - commented out console perms scripts, pending mailing list
543 discussion
544 - updated AUTHORS
545 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to fix RHEL4 compile issues
546 - fixed 80 column wrapping error in barry.spec, thanks to Troy Engel
547 for the bug report
548 - applied Troy Engel's udev permissions patch for Redhat/Fedora
549 systems, which automatically set the ownership of a
550 newly plugged in device to the currently logged in console
551 user.
552 - added udev/README to document what all those files are for...
553 part of the text comes from the sourceforge comment
554 on the above udev permissions patch from Troy Engel
555 - uncommented the console perms scripts for rpm/barry.spec
556 - added libglademm-2.4 to gui/README's dependency list
557 - made usbwrap.* calls more threadsafe
558 - added Usb::Timeout exception for timeout errors
559 - added preliminary UsbSerData support to library for GPRS modem
560 functionality, using Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry's serdata.c
561 as a guide
562 - added overloaded Socket::Send() for sending without receiving
563 - added preliminary pppob command line tool
564 2007/03/02
565 - version bump in:
566 - configure.ac
567 - src/Makefile.am
568 - src/version.cc
569 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
570 - src/Doxyfile
571 - rpm/barry.spec
572 - build system tweaks for opensync-plugin, and added a buildgen.sh
573 for it
574 - added better debug messages in probe.cc and usbwrap.cc's
575 device discovery code
576 - changed error handling for null interface->altsetting pointers
577 when doing device discovery in usbwrap.cc. Seems that
578 some devices report a higher number in bNumInterfaces
579 than are really available... in this case, let's
580 just ignore the missing data and assume success
581 - applied udev script patch #1663986 from Troy Engel
582 - applied barry-bcharge.spec patch #1672178 from Troy Engel
583 - ReleaseChecklist update
584 - added rpm/README based on Troy Engel's patch notes
585 - updated new barry-bcharge.spec for version 0.7, removing patch
586 dependency
588 Release: version 0.6 - 2007/02/28
589 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
590 2007/02/28
591 - fixed size checks for device database records larger than 64K
592 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
593 - added initial release maintainer scripts
594 - fixed odd backup success message in GUI when doing a backup with
595 no databases selected in configuration
596 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
597 - added udev permissions file patch from Michael Brown
598 - added Michael Brown to AUTHORS
599 - updated README, gui/README, and doc/USB-capture.txt
600 - added -o command line switch to bcharge.cc, and updated man page
601 2007/02/23
602 - changed library behaviour so it only turns on libusb debug output
603 if in data dump mode. In btool, -v controls this output.
604 - minor stream formatting fix in btool
605 - added OpenSSL dependency to build for password hash support
606 - made debug dout() output conditional on Init() flag... In btool,
607 -v now controls this as well
608 - reverse engineered more of the initial probe packets, and
609 implemented probing in struct based code... changes include:
610 - added support for "attribute fetch" packets, used at
611 the beginning of USB conversations
612 - defined object/attribute id codes for the PIN number
613 - made Protocol::SocketCommand more robust, and implemented
614 its sequence number behaviour
615 - moved ModeSelectCommand into SocketCommand, as it is a
616 socket 0 level command
617 - added initial protocol struct: PasswordChallenge
618 - renamed Barry::Packet to DBPacket
619 - added ZeroPacket for socket 0 packet creation and analysis
620 - Barry::Packet is now the base class for the above
621 - implemented socket 0 behaviour in socket.cc
622 - changed return values for Send/Receive/Packet/NextRecord
623 members in the Socket class from bool to void, as they
624 don't generate errors themselves, but only can
625 have an error if Usb::Device throws an exception.
626 Cleaned up all code that called these members as well.
627 - removed "last status" from Socket class as it was unused
628 - updated probe.cc to use new socket 0 implementation
629 - removed two of the hard coded packet handshakes in favour
630 of socket 0 packets
631 - updated controller.cc:
632 - uses new socket 0 implementation
633 - removed "flag" hack when opening sockets and
634 selecting modes, as it should use the
635 socket 0 sequence number
636 - added initial, incomplete prototype header for the C API
637 - updated some .cvsignore files
638 - updated TODO
639 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt, adding rpm spec file
640 - added the following to ZeroPacket:
641 - ChallengeSeed()
642 - RemainingTries()
643 - SocketResponse()
644 - SocketSqeuence()
645 - moved Command() to base Packet class
646 - added comments to protostructs.h and size constants for the
647 new PasswordChallenge struct
648 - added password support to Socket and Controller classes
649 Thanks to Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry for the openssl
650 password hashing logic.
651 - updated btool to use new password support, and updated its man page
652 2007/02/22
653 - updated Doxygen input files and version, and added to ReleaseChecklist
654 - fixed btool PIN output for LDIF mode, now commented in output
655 - major LDIF overhaul:
656 - split LDIF specific code out of the record class and
657 into its own
658 - fixed "full name" behaviour that added an extra space
659 in dn attributes, as reported by Troy Engel
660 - added support for mapping of LDIF attributes to Barry
661 contact field names
662 - fixed base64 handling, so attributes are only so encoded
663 if necessary
664 - fixed base64 attribute reading inconsistency... some
665 notes fields were missed in old version if not
666 encoded
667 - added support for specifying alternate attribute for
668 constructing a FQDN, instead of just "cn"
669 - updated btool and upldif to use new features
670 - large update to btool manpage
671 - fixed initialization bug in Contact constructor (missed RecType)
672 2007/02/15
673 - added ktrans.cc to make reading of kernel usbfs_snoop logs easier
674 - removed commented code from translate.cc
675 - added Pearl handshake support to bcharge.cc, which resets the
676 Pearl so that the vendor specific 0xFF class exists.
677 This should allow use of btool on the Pearl.
678 - added Data::AppendHexString to data.cc
679 - added better probing support for the Pearl, so it detects the
680 Product ID 0x0004 mode, and does a search for class 0xFF
681 instead of hardcoding it.
682 2007/02/10
683 - applied README patch from Ian Darwin
684 - minor tweaks to README
685 - added missing errno.h header in src/usbwrap.cc for AMD64
686 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting the bug.
687 - tightened up size checks in Data::ReleaseBuffer()
688 - stable libusb *does* return the actual length of the USB packet...
689 fixed this in usbwrap.cc to set the actual size of read data,
690 and removed the size hacks elsewhere in the code:
691 probe.cc, protocol.cc, socket.cc, usbwrap.cc
692 2007/02/09
693 - added proper return codes for error conditions in btool.cc
694 - clarified some stream output code in the library, for hex/dec numbers
695 - removed old, non-working connect.cc test program
696 - added iomanip to debug.h
697 - changed usbwrap to call libusb again if EINTR and EAGAIN
698 This should fix one of the OpenBSD issues
699 2007/02/04
700 - updated AUTHORS
701 - fixed bug in barrybackup GUI that didn't create the target path
702 if the user didn't do Edit | Config first.
703 Thanks to Ian Darwin for reporting the bug.
704 - applied gui/src/ConfigFile.cc header fix patch for OpenBSD
705 from Ian Darwin
706 2007/02/03
707 - added initial btool.1 man page from Ian Darwin
708 - updated man/Makefile.am for new btool.1
709 - updated AUTHORS
710 - applied btool -h help clarification patch from Ian Darwin
711 2007/02/02
712 - reworked exception hierarchy, so applications can handle all
713 Barry related exceptions, including Usb errors, with
714 one base class: Barry::Error
715 - fixed all the ripple changes this caused throughout the codebase
716 - added BadPassword exception
717 2007/02/01
718 - version bump in:
719 - configure.ac
720 - src/Makefile.am
721 - src/version.cc
722 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
723 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
724 - added usb-level breset.cc command line tool
725 - fixed bug in gui/src/tarfile.* for systems where
726 sizeof(int) != sizeof(void*)
727 - TarFile class now uses a plugin style for the compression
728 operations, to allow for threadsafe versions if needed
729 in the future.
730 - also fixed leaked file handle bug in open_compressed()
731 - Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this for 64bit systems
732 - minor signed comparison fixes in the library
733 - added better protocol data dumping code in probe.cc
734 - added Usb::Device::BulkDrain(), to prevent Barry from hanging
735 due to pending reads
737 Release: version 0.5 - 2007/01/26
738 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
739 2007/01/26
740 - added missing errno.h header to gui/src/util.cc
741 - lots more endian fixes after testing on iMac
742 - iostream output size fixes
743 - added option to btool to reset the device via software
744 - beefed up exception handling in barrybackup
745 - checked in opensync work-in-progress: trace logging, pointer bugfix
746 this is still experimental
747 - added aboutdialog.* files from gtkmm24 2.10.6, so we have a dialog
748 class for systems running older versions of gtkmm, like
749 Debian stable
750 - uncommented the about box menu handler
751 - added "cleanall" option to root buildgen.sh script
752 - update ReleaseChecklist.txt
753 - removed CVS auto-history strings from aboutdialog.*
754 2007/01/25
755 - found a link between the unknown field in tagged protocol headers
756 and the unknown field in RecordStateTable entries. This
757 field matters when uploading certain databases, such as
758 Browser Options. It is unknown what this field really
759 means, but we're calling it RecType. Updated the API
760 to use this in all parser objects and builder objects
761 and record objects that use it.
762 - changed some uses of uint64_t to uint32_t, in Contact and
763 Calendar record objects... unique IDs only seem to be
764 32 bits
765 - added new static function to record classes: GetDefaultRecType()
766 This returns the default rectype that should work
767 for that record. Ideally this should be retrieved from
768 the device, but in the case where a database has no
769 records, this info would be good to know.
770 - updated convenience template function Controller::AddRecordByType()
771 to use GetDefaultRecType()
772 - documented the recurrence data and how to use it in Calendar objects
773 - added data debug output for incoming USB packets in the
774 socket class... when we ported to the stable libusb
775 we lost some of the verbose output... this should get it
776 back. (In the official release, you need to uncomment
777 ddout() in debug.h for the full blast of debug output).
778 - backup GUI updates:
779 - changed error_done signal into a pure error signal,
780 and changed the logic so the restore continues
781 even if there was a protocol error on one database
782 - changed status bar messages to show what's happening
783 i.e. Backup or Restore
784 - default to not restore the "Handheld Agent" database as
785 it appears to be read-only on the device
786 - added temporary Restore & Backup mode for debugging
787 - added extra hyphen to backup files to show date/time better
788 - updated GUI to save and restore the new RecType field
789 supported now by the library
790 2007/01/21
791 - added future considerations to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
792 - applied big endian patch from Jonathan Hudson
793 - changes to patch:
794 - removed endian.h include from barry.h, since applications
795 using the library should not care about endianness
796 - hard coded the path to config.h in endian.h
797 so that endian.h never makes it into the final
798 install
799 - removed DEFAULT_INCLUDES setting from src/Makefile.am
800 for the same reason
801 - removed config.h dependency in btool.cc and used library
802 Version call instead
803 - added big/little endian text to the Barry::Version call
804 - updated AUTHORS
805 - fixed install location of bcharge when building with ./configure;
806 now goes to sbin/ for both source compile and binary packages
807 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this bug.
808 2007/01/20
809 - added smarter timeout values to controller, and allowed
810 timeout overrides in the packet, socket, and usbwrap code...
811 extra timeouts are needed for erasing databases for
812 some older devices
813 - added an explicit DataDumpParser class to btool.cc, as the
814 library doesn't always have extreme verbose debugging on...
815 this makes sure anyone can always get raw database packets
816 through btool, for development
817 - added thread callback signals for error finishes and erase_db
818 operations, so the GUI is updated properly
819 - more GUI cleanups (status bar updates, etc)
820 - finished implementation of GUI restore
821 - fixed gtkmm/glibmm exception handling when the exceptions
822 occur in sigc signal handlers... in that case,
823 exceptions need to be handled with
824 Glib::add_exception_handler()
825 - added filename-only reading support to TarFile class
826 - added pending gui/TODO items
827 2007/01/19
828 - backup GUI now properly shows progress
829 - the buttons become insensitive when backup is busy
830 - refactored directory check code, and added mkdir check
831 when to the backup setup (so the directory exists
832 when we try to write to it)
833 - updated code to use Barry::Data in new namespace
834 2007/01/18
835 - moved Data class into Barry namespace
836 2007/01/13
837 - updated copyright dates for the new year
838 - clarified exception message in controller.cc
839 - fixed pointer initialization bug in controller.cc
840 - added documentation comments to parser.h and builder.h
841 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt
842 - updated README
843 - changed Barry library configure scripts to make better
844 use of pkg-config for autodetecting dependencies
845 - added initial Barry Backup GUI (gui/ directory), capable of making
846 backups only at this point
847 2007/01/11
848 - added doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
849 - added version API, returning version number and string
850 - added Troy Engel to AUTHORS
851 - added special case to bcharge.cc for the Blackberry Pearl,
852 which doesn't reset itself after the charge handshake
853 Thanks to Troy Engel for testing.
854 2007/01/05
855 - added pkg-config support for the library (libbarry-0.pc.in)
856 - fixed compile error on g++ 3.3 systems (missing stdint.h
857 in probe.h)
858 - fixed protocol hang at end of Controller operation... in
859 controller destructor, it was deleting the USB interface
860 before closing the socket at the BlackBerry level, thereby
861 leaving the device in Desktop mode
862 2007/01/04
863 - support the newer udev packages on Ubuntu, which need slightly
864 different rules
865 - modified bcharge.cc to search for Pearl devices too.
866 USB product ID 6
867 - added Pearl product ID to probe code, but likely not functional
868 yet until we find someone able to get a USB capture for us
869 2006/12/29
870 - version bump in configure.ac and src/Makefile.am
872 Release: version 0.4 - 2006/12/29
873 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
874 2006/12/29
875 - added bcharge.cc to the tools/ directory (whoohoo!)
876 - added initial release version of rpm/barry.spec (aka bcharge.spec)
877 This begins the barry binary release, currently only
878 including the bcharge utility, but possibly more in
879 the future. Future binary packages will likely include
880 libbarry, libbarry-devel, etc, which barry will then
881 depend on.
882 - added udev rule script for BlackBerry devices
883 - added man/ directory and bcharge.1 manpage
884 - added debian/ directory for building deb packages, with initial
885 package scripts
886 - added rpm/make-rpm-tarball.sh for building RPMs
887 - split out technical docs into separate libbarry.docs file for
888 a future Debian install
889 - added more cleaning to buildgen.sh
890 - added new udev rule file for Debian stable
891 - hardcoded g++ to 3.3 in debian/rules as I have multiple versions
892 on my system and need to compile releases with stable
893 2006/12/21
894 - ported Barry to use the stable branch of libusb
895 NOTE: no longer depends on the devel libusb tarball!
896 Just use your distro's libusb packages.
897 - fixed more endian issues
898 - minor update to TODO
899 2006/12/15
900 - moved Exceptions, Hacking, and VersionNotes to doc/
901 - added doc/USB-capture.txt
902 2006/12/08
903 - added Controller::AddRecord() and template helper
904 - added beginning version of generic RecordFetch<> template
905 - set default of Barry::Init() to false (no data dump mode)
906 - added examples/ directory, with first addcontact.cc example
907 2006/12/07
908 - added autoconf support based on Peter McAlpine's patch
909 - renamed Makefiles to Makefile.orig and added script to turn
910 on old build system if wanted
911 - fixed boost-specific error path in btool
912 - moved platform specific code out of time.h and into time.cc
913 - moved btool.cc, translate.cc, and upldif.cc out of src/ and
914 into their own tools/ subdirectory
915 - added NEWS file to make autotools happy
916 - added a "clean" option to the buildgen.sh script... maintainer's
917 use only
918 - reworked autoconf and automake files, to support
919 barry as a library, to move the programs into their
920 own tools directory, and support a proper installation
921 - fixed headers in parser.h, btool.cc, and upldif.cc to work
922 properly when installed standalone
923 - added tools/Makefile.plain for testing compiling against
924 installed barry library
925 - added commentary on version number system
926 - removed Makefile.conf and Makefile.orig, as new autoconf
927 system supercedes it
928 - added support for boost serialization library in autoconf build
929 - added library version number to autoconf build
930 - changed boost flag to __BARRY_BOOST_MODE__ to avoid collisions
931 - removed debug.h dependency from btool.cc
932 - removed libusb check in favour of specific --with-libusb
933 option... may need to revisit this later
934 - quick installation update in README
935 2006/12/01
936 - fixed some missed endian conversions in record.cc and added
937 some size checks
938 - fixed endian issues in time.h
939 - added 2 more functions to the time zone API, and adjusted
940 the time zone table for better defaults in North America
941 - added btool and upldif to the make install sequence
942 - added support for Calendar recurrence data
943 - small doc/TimeZones.txt update
944 2006/11/24
945 - added BlackBerry time zone code list, reverse engineered from a 7750
946 - added GetTimeZone() to convert device time zone codes to useful data
948 Release: version 0.0.3 - 2006/11/24
949 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
950 2006/11/23
951 - added return code check to Controller::SaveDatabase()
952 - fixed Data() class constructor, so it doesn't auto-convert
953 from any int
954 - fixed size checking bug in Packet::ReturnCode() that caused

964 specified multiple times to work with multiple records
965 at once
966 - added Calendar sync code to the opensync module (not complete)
967 - cleaned up exception handling in the opensync module, making
968 more use of the base exception to make sure no
969 exceptions leak into the C library code
971 Release: version 0.0.2 - 2006/10/12
972 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
973 2006/10/12
974 - fixed casting error in opensync module
975 - minor updates to documentation to prepare for release
976 2006/09/29
977 - added stdint.h to parser.h for uint32_t. Thanks Ron Gage for
978 the bug report
979 2006/09/08
980 - large refactoring of the packet parsing and building code,
981 splitting the code into 3 groups:
982 - record: handles record specific parsing and building...
983 this is mostly subfields with CommonField structs
984 as their headers, but sometimes has a specific
985 header of its own, in the case of email
986 Note: email's header is as yet undecoded.
987 Record does not know the details of the packet
988 formats, only the formats of its own record data.
989 - packet: handles building of complete command packets
990 and handles parsing of commonly used header values,
991 providing an API for it... packet does not know
992 the record format details, but does know the
993 details of each Database Operation (protocol.h)
994 packet format.
995 So far, it seems that there is a real separation
996 of operation formats and record formats, with the
997 record formats being the same even with different
998 database operation codes (GET_RECORDS /
999 OLD_GET_RECORDS), which was not confirmed before.
1000 See the header size of the email record after
1001 refactoring.
1002 - controller: handles device state, and the management of
1003 sockets, commands, and checking for response values.
1004 The Controller object does not know the format
1005 of either the record or the packet it is sending,
1006 but does know the protocol handshake logic used
1007 to talk to the device.
1008 - implemented SetRecord (SET_RECORD_BY_INDEX)... syncing, here
1009 we come!
1010 - spelling correction in opensync-plugin/AUTHORS
1011 2006/09/01
1012 - added sample hotplug scripts
1013 - added .cvsignore files for doxygen and opensync directories
1014 - added src/endian.h... still need to add configure support to
1015 handle non-little-endian machines
1016 - added exception handler in opensync plugin commit_change()
1017 - removed the device reset code in probe.cc, as resetting a device
1018 can renumber the devices in /proc on kernel 2.4.x,
1019 and cause a failure to reach the device...
1020 FIXME - this should be changed someday to reset if probing
1021 fails, and restart the probe on reset, as sometimes
1022 the blackberry devices respond differently when not reset
1023 Ideally, the probe protocol should be properly reverse
1024 engineered.
1025 - added support for retrieving record state table, which is needed
1026 for smarter syncing
1027 - added support for retrieving, deleting, and clearing the dirty
1028 flags of individual blackberry device records
1029 - added endian macros throughout the code
1030 2006/07/13
1031 - added opensync-plugin to root Makefile's clean

1034 for development)
1035 - removed slow sync functions for now
1036 2006/07/07
1037 - added quick "install" makefile target, to src/install by default
1038 - added static library target... this is temporary until autoconf
1039 stuff is added properly... needed for the opensync plugin
1040 - documented in comments that Barry::BError is intended to be
1041 the base classes for all exceptions
1042 - added first round of implementation of an opensync plugin, based
1043 on the example plugin code from the opensync sources
1044 2006/06/22
1045 - added to Contact record class:
1046 - Clear()

1048 - added fragmented send support to Socket class
1049 - added Probe::FindActive() to make client programs more streamlined
1050 - fixed hex/decimal printing of record counts in btool

1059 - old and new description
1060 - DSID
1061 - bes domain / domain
1062 - date change in legal.txt
1063 - added initial parsing of ServiceBook field 0x09, and calling it
1064 ServiceBookConfig for now, for lack of a better name
1065 - added parsing for ServiceBook field 0x02 on 72xx Blackberries...
1066 seems to be a name or description, but doesn't appear
1067 in the device's own GUI... called "Hidden Name" for now
1068 2006/06/09
1069 - added ServiceBook record class and parser code, based on some
1070 of Ron Gage's reverse engineering... code is by Chris Frey
1071 - added AUTHORS file
1072 - fixed the libusb set_configuration/claim_interface order
1073 bug in controller.{h,cc}... already fixed in probe,
1074 but not controller. Thanks Ron Gage for finding this.
1075 2006/05/25

1098 - added clean target to convenience Makefile
1099 - added Boost to list of dependencies in README
1100 - fixed minor compile warnings in base64.cc
1101 - fixed new USB discovery code, and changed endpoint usage to use
1102 it, instead of the READ_ENDPOINT and WRITE_ENDPOINT
1103 constants... constants are now removed
1104 common.h, controller.cc, probe.cc, probe.h, usbwrap.cc
1105 - added ClearHalt() to Usb::Device (usbwrap.cc)

1122 - renamed CommonField union from data to u to be consistent
1123 - added return_code field to DBAccess struct, for error checking
1124 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
1125 throw exception in controller.cc
1126 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
1127 contact data to the device, it may be important to write
1128 group link items last, since they reference other contacts...
1129 This needs to be tested, and if not required, removed.
1130 - added GROUP_FLAG field code to Contact parser class
1131 - fixed offset bug in Contact and Calendar Build() functions
1132 - fixed name bug in Contact::Build(), now output only with data

1141 - parser code now accepts an offset, to govern start of record data
1142 - changed Data sizes from int to size_t and removed casts
1143 - removed unneeded Parser::GetHeaderSize() (new protostructs make
1144 this obsolete)

1146 2005/12/10
1147 - added s11n-boost.h serialization templates for boost::serialization
1148 - added boost::serialization to build
1149 - minor change in usbwrap.cc to display error codes in decimal
1150 - added SizePacket special case code to Socket::Send()... this is
1151 required when uploaded packet size is a multiple of 0x40,
1152 a special 3 byte size packet is sent
1153 - moved some record class variables to public: so they can be
1154 properly serialized
1155 - fixed variable name but in RecordBuilder template
1156 - added -f switch to btool, for saving and loading of record data

1169 optimize away protocol struct casts
1170 see:
1171 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25235

1175 02a2a3cc?hl=en#5714701b02a2a3cc
1176 - changed headers so that any low level protocol-specific sizes and
1177 structs are completely hidden in the library...
1178 this adds library-only header: protostructs.h
1180 Release: version 0.0.1 - 2005/11/25
1181 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1182 2005/11/25

1202 2005/11/19
1203 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
1204 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
1205 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
1206 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
1207 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
1208 Observed maximum blank count: 1
1209 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
1210 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
1211 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
1212 seem to need more time...)
1213 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
1214 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
1215 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
1216 with Python, if used(?)
1217 - added Message class for Email records
1218 - removed the "Get*" database functions and replaced with
1219 general LoadDatabase() call, which loads any database
1220 available, and parses it with a Parser object
1221 - added GetDBID() for searching for database numbers via name
1222 - added test code to retrieve and display all email
1223 - cleaned up comments

1233 - removed Test() function in Controller object, and made class
1234 better suited to its general API purpose
1235 - changed OpenMode() so it loads command table and DBDB... it is now
1236 a public API function
1237 - moved Controller test code to btool.cc and made tool more
1238 generically useful... can now download any DB by name on
1239 the command line
1240 - added mode checks to Controller
1241 - added -t and -d command line options to btool
1242 - added base64 routines from John Walker / Fourmilab and Citadel/UX

1247 - renamed sbcommon.* to common.*
1248 - increased USB default timeout to 2 seconds
1249 - fixed formatting bug in Data operator<< output
1250 - cleaned up the protocol packet structs, getting rid of the
1251 confusing param/simple split... param is now the tableCmd
1252 from the Command Table
1253 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
1254 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
1255 the Cassis spec more closely
1256 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing
1257 - fixed Socket::Close() so on error, socket flags are reset.
1258 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
1259 destructors
1260 2005/11/17
1261 - added Doxyfile to the project
1262 - tuned Makefile
1263 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
1264 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
1265 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent
1266 data transfers.
1267 - added Command Table parsing and protocol support
1268 Blackberry class, and CommandTable record class
1269 - added Database database parsing and protocol support
1270 Blackberry class and DatabaseDatabase record class
1271 - added Address book retrieval support - dumps data to stdout for now
1272 - fixed bug in CopyOnWrite mode in Data class, where could allocate
1273 less buffer than data copied
1274 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
1275 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
1276 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
1277 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
1278 data
1279 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
1280 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
1281 saved
1282 - implemented socket::Close()
1283 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0
1284 - added Socket::NextRecord() for multiple record data transfers
1285 - fixed input handling bug in translate.cc
1286 2005/11/11
1287 - added .cvsignore files to project
1288 - added README notes to document the source architecture
1289 - added dbsetup data script, which shows how to get into database
1290 mode, using the RIM Desktop mode, and open a socket
1291 - added blackberry.{h,cc} class
1292 - added command line parameters to bbtool.cc
1293 -l = list only
1294 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
1295 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
1296 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
1297 results
1298 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
1299 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
1300 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
1301 - regular debug output
1302 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
1303 syslog someday, and never turned off)
1304 - raw data dump output
1305 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
1306 numbers into english (limited success)
1307 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
1308 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
1309 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
1310 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
1311 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
1312 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
1313 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
1314 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
1315 for socket 0 operations.
1316 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
1317 MAKE_PACKET()
1318 COMMAND()
1319 IS_COMMAND()
1320 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
1321 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
1322 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
1323 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
1324 2005/10/20
1325 - syncberry tree started
