126 - added timeout argument to Device::BulkDrain()
127 - added mozilla's sha1 code from git

131 potential obstacles to future inclusion in those distros,
132 the dependency is removed here in favour of the small
133 mozilla implementation which is GPL.

189 - split the sample rogers options file into options and chat files
190 2008/05/16
191 - put sequence packet check directly in the SocketZero::RawReceive()
192 function, which now localizes all sequence packet
193 handling and checking, as well as avoids packet
194 order problems when multiple sockets are in use,
195 such as with pppob...
196 FIXME - this localized sequence checking may make all
197 the calls to CheckSequence() obsolete which
198 should probably be cleaned up someday, if so.
199 - reorganized src/socket.cc to match class private/public

212 - moved PPP filter logic into its own class
213 - enhanced PPP filter class to support prepending of
214 empty bytes if needed, in order to reduce data
215 copying, and clarified why there is no GetBuffer()
216 - added ProbeResult::HasIpModem() to determine whether
217 IpModem endpoints are available
218 - added pure virtual Modem base class for common
219 modem-oriented API (only Open and Write so far)
220 - Mode::IpModem is now derived from Barry::Modem
221 - experimental implementation for Mode::Serial,
222 which is now derived from Barry::Modem,
223 and uses PppFilter
224 - pppob now supports IpModem and Serial modes, and logging
225 to file instead of stderr
226 - added man page for pppob
227 2008/05/10
228 - modified the planned version numbering scheme in doc/VersionNotes,
229 so that a 1.0 is possible, with 1.50 as the devel series

231 - continuing to update html documentation in preparation for
232 0.13 release
233 2008/05/02
234 - removed -fvisibility-inlines-hidden compile options since some
235 distros have old or broken compilers or libraries where

241 ubuntu710 to the test build sequence
242 2008/05/01
243 - updated doc/TroubleShooting.txt
244 - removed usb_control message check from IpModem endpoint probing
245 in src/probe.cc, since some devices, like the 8700
246 have both RIM_UsbSerData mode and IpModem mode.
247 - fixed serialization code for Calendar record class, in s11n-boost.h
248 - made UnknownField's data member into its own type,
249 so that when building records, it doesn't get processed
250 like a null terminated string... also added more
251 BuildField() helper functions for accuracy
252 - fixed missing fields in the Calendar record build process
253 - added Calendar to list of Builders in tools/btool...
254 it is now possible to run: btool -s "Calendar" -f datafile
255 - added tools/brecsum program, which calculates SHA1 checksums
256 on database records, for testing
257 - added brecsum to debian and rpm builds
258 - added recurrence builder function to Calendar record builder code
259 which completes builder support
260 Checksums from the following commands now match:
261 brecsum -d Calendar > sum1.txt
262 btool -d Calendar -f calendar.dat
263 btool -s Calendar -f calendar.dat
264 brecsum -d Calendar > sum2.txt
265 diff -u <(sort sum1.txt) <(sort sum2.txt)

510 - added code to handle the race condition where usb_storage
511 claims the device before bcharge arrives on the scene,
512 by asking the kernel to detach the driver from
513 the Mass Storage interface... this change makes it
514 possible to run bcharge, moving from 0006 to 0004
515 to 0001 and back to 0004, all *while* usb_storage
516 is loaded!
517 - changed Probe class behaviour so that it will not throw an
518 exception on Device Busy (-EBUSY) but instead
519 log the error in an internal array and keep going.
520 This makes it possible to use btool and barrybackup
521 with two devices plugged in at the same time.
522 BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY NOTE: this changes initializaion
523 behaviour, but in practice, it should only
524 make applications look more capable, not less.
525 - updated btool to show errors logged by Probe
526 - added message to specify which PIN device is being used by btool
527 - added explanatory comments to udev rules files, about why
528 they are so verbose
529 2007/11/27
530 - added ClearHalt() calls to probe and controller classes, just
531 before any communication happens... the 8830 seems
532 to need this
533 2007/11/23
534 - added usbwrap.cc:GetConfiguration()
535 - added code to check whether the configuration is the one
536 we require, before calling SetConfiguration()... and not
537 to call it if unnecessary. This allows us to run
538 at the same time as usb_storage.
539 Thanks to Martin Owens for not letting this issue go. :-)
540 - added sleep to bcharge, before calling usb_reset()... the
541 Blackberry 8830 behaves like a Pearl device in that
542 it has mass storage support, but behaves like a Classic
543 in that it resets itself... the usb_reset() seems
544 to reset it back to 0006. The sleep allows the device
545 to disappear via its own reset, and let usb_reset()
546 fail naturally on these devices.
547 This is not an ideal solution... mainly for testing.
548 2007/11/09
549 - added modprobe/blacklist-berry_charge as per Simon Ruggier's
550 suggestion. Thanks also to Niels de Vos for a similar
551 suggestion.
552 - fixed udev rules to work on both old and new distros
553 Thanks to Duncan Mak for the bug report.
554 - AUTHORS update
555 - fixed string comparison to use case insensitive compare in
556 opensync plugin
557 - updated Debian package to include modprobe blacklist file
558 - updated rpm spec file to include modprobe blacklist file
559 - split the maintenance scripts into release and test, so
560 that release package builds can be done faster
561 2007/10/26
562 - opensync plugin fixes:
563 - fixed memory leak in vBase::GetAttr()
564 - added support in vformat parser to parse "blocks"
565 and keep track of the hierarchy when
566 parsing an iCalendar, etc.
567 - added support for searching for attributes only
568 inside certain blocks (i.e. find first
569 DTSTART in VEVENT block, not VTIMEZONE block)
570 2007/10/25
571 - fixed bug in Calendar::Clear, missing the Free / Class
572 member variables, leaving them uninitialized
573 - added examples/addcalendar.cc
574 - added more logging to the opensync plugin, logging the
575 ToBarry conversion results
576 - added code to force struct tm.tm_isdst to -1 before calling
577 mktime, in vformat.c
578 - fixed typo in previous fix
579 2007/10/12
580 - renamed ktrans and translate to bktrans and btranslate to avoid
581 file name clashes with libtranslate of Gnome
582 Closes bug #1812410 reported by Troy Engel.
583 - version bump:
584 - configure.ac
585 - src/Makefile.am
586 - src/version.cc
587 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
588 - src/Doxygen
589 - rpm/barry.spec
590 - debian/changelog
591 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
592 - fixed missing default config file in the debian package for
593 the opensync plugin
594 Closes bug #1812224 reported by Ariel (adonatti).
595 - added debian dbg packages for tracing segfaults
596 - modified maintainer scripts so debug packages would reference
597 source code located in /usr/src/barry-0.9, etc.
599 Release: version 0.9 - 2007/10/12
600 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
601 2007/09/29
602 - adjusted autosuspend disabling code in bcharge, based on new
603 information on how kernels 2.6.21 / 2.6.22 work.
604 See bcharge.cc for comments. If device/power/level or
605 device/power/autosuspend exist, charging should now work
606 without recompiling the kernel.
607 - updated website docs with autosuspend info
608 2007/09/27
609 - large update to the doc/www web pages, moving some of the
610 information in README files to html format, so that it
611 is commonly available on the web
612 - added step in maintenance scripts to automatically build the
613 .html files in doc/www when making a tarball release
614 2007/09/22
615 - added libopensync 0.22 version requirement to barry.spec file,
616 but it doesn't seem to work on OpenSuSE 10.2, where it's
617 needed.... hmmmm
618 2007/09/21
619 - updated README to mention new tree build configure options
620 - fixed the configure scripts and makefiles so that when building
621 with custom CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables,
622 it doesn't break the full-tree build mode, when
623 using --enable-gui and/or --enable-opensync-plugin
624 - added config.h.in~ to buildgen.sh clean target
625 - converted Debian build scripts to use cdbs
626 - added opensync plugin binary package for Debian
627 - added "Getting Started" section to web pages, as well as an
628 explanatory document for various system requirements
629 - turned on opensync build in RPM maintainer scripts
630 2007/09/20
631 - added filename to power/state error message in bcharge.cc
632 - adjusted maintainer scripts to automatically adjust barry.spec
633 for opensuse rpm builds
634 2007/09/13
635 - fixed some of the release build scripts and added support for
636 automated opensuse 10.2 builds
637 - fixed build target to i386
638 - changed scripts to add to PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable instead
639 of overwriting it
640 2007/09/07
641 - added website docs to doc/www... these are out of date at the
642 moment, and hopefully by including them here, they
643 will be updated more frequently
644 2007/09/05
645 - applied Simon Ruggier's build system patch that allowed a build
646 of all 3 components from the root directory and fixed the
647 configure scripts to support external build directories
648 - reordered clean commands in the buildgen.sh scripts, and removed
649 the INSTALL files, since they are auto-generated by autoconf
650 - removed extraneous buildgen.sh calls in maintainer scripts
651 - added Simon Ruggier to AUTHORS
652 - added explanatory note to 3 stage test build process in
653 maintainer script
654 2007/08/24
655 - fixed Category handling in the Contact record class, to
656 parse the comma separated string into an array,
657 and back
658 Note: this involves a change to the boost serialization
659 and will affect backward compatibility with
660 old serialization datafiles
661 - added Category to examples/addcontact.cc
662 - added Category support to the opensync plugin
663 2007/08/23
664 - fixed wrong read/write in btool output (oops)
665 - added BadSize exception, and changed CheckSize() function
666 to throw it on error
667 - changed backup GUI to catch BadSize exceptions on initial
668 connect, and try a reset if that error occurs, since
669 that likely means the device didn't shutdown properly
670 - fixed in opensync plugin:
671 - some vcard data contains types codes in capital letters,
672 so added lower case conversion routine
673 - changed the order of address lines, so that address1
674 is the street, address2 is the extended address,
675 and address3 is the PO Box. The Blackberry
676 doesn't seem to have any PO Box field.
677 2007/08/20
678 - added -e endpoint override option to btool
679 - added status message to endpoint override
680 2007/08/18
681 - added configure check for strnlen, and implementation for
682 systems that don't have it, or that have it implemented
683 incorrectly. Went a little paranoid here, since
684 AC_FUNC_STRNLEN doesn't set a define in config.h,
685 so I had to do it manually, and check in case autoconf
686 changes in the future... ugh. See src/strnlen.h for
687 the gory details.
688 - added code in probe.cc to fetch the device's description.
689 The description is now part of the probe results
690 along with the PIN. Updates to protocol.h, adding
691 a new attribute definition.
692 Thanks to Rick Scott for pointing out the code in
693 XmBlackberry where he implemented this first.
694 - fixed header dependency in record-internal.h
695 - updated the "required autoconf" version to 2.61 for root build
696 - moved nested structs out of the record classes that contain them,
697 in order to better support SWIG and Python
698 2007/08/17
699 - changed bcharge to use getopt() for its argument processing
700 - added options -p and -s to bcharge, to adjust usb suspend
701 settings automatically where possible
702 - updated the udev rules to use the new bcharge settings
703 - updated the bcharge man page with the new arguments
704 2007/08/16
705 - cleaned up Usb exception handling, moving libusb error code
706 processing into the Usb::Error exception class.
707 error.cc is now an empty shell
708 - added return codes to the Usb::Error exceptions
709 - removed aboutdialog.{h,cc} from the backup GUI since even
710 Debian stable now has up-to-date gtkmm libraries
711 - added more user friendly error message for the "device busy"
712 case, recommending 'rmmod usb_storage'.
713 2007/08/09
714 - added better error checking to bcharge.cc
715 - version bump:
716 - configure.ac
717 - src/Makefile.am
718 - src/version.cc
719 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
720 - src/Doxygen
721 - rpm/barry.spec
722 - debian/changelog
723 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
724 - removed usb_set_configuration() check from bcharge.cc, since
725 that may fail under normal operation, in this case
727 Release: version 0.8 - 2007/08/03
728 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
729 2007/08/03
730 - moved Interface implementation to usbwrap.cc file
731 - added dout debugging messages to usbwrap.cc
732 - clarified unhandled packet error message in socket.cc
733 - added temporary workaround in opensync-plugin environment's
734 Reconnect(), for odd message seen on newer Blackberry
735 devices
736 - fixing issues with Brian Edginton's MessageRecord patch (2007/06/29)
737 - fixed missing size check in message oriented ParseHeader()
738 - fixed endian conversion issues (also found one pre-existing
739 endian bug in the process)
740 - moved message timestamp converter code to time.cc
741 - added Barry version number to opensync plugin name
742 - changed maintainer scripts and rpm.spec to use bzip2 instead of gzip
743 - added opensync-plugin to configure script build
744 - added -S option to btool, to list supported parsers and builders
745 - slight change to opensync-plugin/buildgen.sh to cleanup config.h.in~
746 - opensync-plugin/README update
747 - added opensync-plugin/patches for others who may be building and
748 testing the plugin with OpenSync 0.22
749 - added debian package build scripts to maintainer/
750 2007/08/01
751 - added entry to doc/TroubleShooting.txt
752 2007/07/28
753 - added doc/TroubleShooting.txt
754 2007/07/27
755 - opensync plugin:
756 - fixed bug in vcard.cc that was using the FN field
757 for the broken-down name instead of N
758 - added dbId and dbName to DatabaseSyncState
759 - added Reconnect() functionality to BarryEnvironment class
760 and moved connect logic out of barry_sync.cc
761 - changed the batch commit functionality in barry_sync.cc
762 to single-change-commit. Why? Because opensync
763 0.22 groups all batch changes into one group
764 and calls one batch commit function, even if you
765 registered two. Moving to single change commit
766 mode removes a chunk of unneccessary code
767 from the plugin as well, and can in theory
768 ease memory pressure in the library.
769 - added FinishSync() to perform actions needed on successful
770 syncing completion
771 - disconnect on successful sync completion, and reconnect,
772 since the device's dirty flags don't seem to
773 be updated until a disconnect occurs.
774 2007/07/26
775 - added ReadDataArray() to data.h, using an istream instead of
776 requiring a file
777 - added raw data version of BuildField() to record-internal.h
778 This is so that btool doesn't add extra null terminators
779 to unknown data, when restoring with option -s
780 - fixed bugs in r_contact.cc:
781 - fixed bug that caused a LastName/FirstName swap
782 if FirstName was empty and you wrote a contact
783 record into the device.... First/Last Name
784 fields are position sensitive, and the code
785 was missing the empty FirstName case on writing
786 - fixed bug in BuildFields() and Dump() where they
787 were not updated to handle the new field
788 table added for the postal address changes
789 on 2007/07/20, oops
790 - opensync plugin:
791 - changed the plugin config file, so it is possible to
792 turn debug output on/off without recompiling
793 - moved the standalone Map2Uid() function into
794 the DatabaseSyncState class, and changed the
795 code to produce "contact-#" and "calendar-#"
796 UID strings, instead of just numbers
797 - changed default PIN to -1, so that if the user doesn't
798 configure properly, it will fail... this is a
799 safety measure to avoid syncing with different
800 devices and corrupting the cache/idmap...
801 this should be fixed someday, to handle this
802 automatically
803 On second thought... is this right? Perhaps
804 it is better to fail if the PIN is not what
805 is expected, so a user doesn't accidentally
806 sync the wrong device and lose data.
807 Actions to take on new PIN:
808 - force slow_sync, or
809 - fail
810 - incorporated the new VCardConverter code into the
811 main barry_sync.cc plugin code
812 - fixed bug that did not clear the devices dirty flags
813 in the case where a sync only read data from it,
814 and didn't write
815 - changed PIN error message number to hex
816 2007/07/20
817 - minor wording change in backup GUI prompt: "Backup working..." to
818 "Backup in progress..."
819 - renamed Contact class's Title field to JobTitle for clarity
820 - added record function ParseFieldString(), which properly handles
821 strings from the device that have multiple null terminators,
822 and changed the record parsing code to use this new function
823 - moved FullName() function from ldif.cc to r_contact.cc since it
824 is generally useful in areas outside of LDIF processing
825 - refactored postal addresses in the Contact record class into
826 a new class called PostalAddress
827 - renamed Address class in record.h to EmailAddress
828 - moved Contact::GetPostalAddress() to record.cc as part of the
829 new PostalAddress class and renamed it
830 PostalAddress::GetLabel()
831 - opensync plugin:
832 - refactored vformat helpers into separate base class
833 called vBase
834 - added vCard converter class
835 - commented out the code that skipped over the adding
836 of empty attribute values and parameters,
837 since VCARD depends on some of this behaviour
838 - movified vformat.c:vformat_find_attribute() to take
839 an extra nth argument, in order to search
840 for multiple attributes with the same name...
841 the way this is coded is a bit inefficient...
842 but we're moving away from vformat when we move
843 to OpenSync 0.3x / 0.40, so this is just temporary
844 pain
845 2007/07/19
846 - added SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device" to example udev rules, in order
847 to avoid running bcharge for each endpoint that is
848 added by udev, when first plugged in. Running bcharge
849 back-to-back multiple times can crash some
850 Blackberries.
851 2007/07/14
852 - opensync plugin:
853 - fixed ID mapping bug in the case of a non-numeric UID
854 from syncing external -> Barry, and then the
855 new Barry ID would look like a new change
856 when syncing back from Barry -> external.
857 - added support for slow sync
858 - added clear() to idmap class
859 - added vformat attr parameter extraction class
860 - added more trace logging during vformat/Barry conversions
861 - added Notification time support
862 - handled "all day" vformat special case, when DTEND
863 does not exist in a vformat data block
864 - changed the min1900_t time conversion functions to handle
865 the 0xffffffff special case, when notifications
866 are turned off on a calendar event (src/time.cc)
867 - also made the calendar data dump output clearer for
868 disabled timestamps, and added debug output
869 for the raw min1900 value, in case there are more
870 special cases in the future
871 2007/07/13
872 - fixed null pointer access in opensync's HasMultipleVEvents()
873 2007/07/12
874 - upper management directive: revert all OpenSync 0.3x changes
875 and proceed with OpenSync 0.22. Reverting the
876 opensync-plugin/src tree to Barry 0.7 status.
877 2007/07/06
878 - reorganized exception and trace code in opensync plugin
879 - added XmlToCalendar() function, based on unfinished opensync
880 library API that is not yet finished... will be
881 committed to opensync svn tree when complete
882 - added OSyncXMLField logger to plugin trace class
883 2007/06/29
884 - applied email MessageRecord patch from Brian Edginton (thanks!)
885 - updated Message::Dump() to output more valid mbox data...
886 the goal is to be able to do:
887 btool -d "Messages" > email.mbox
888 mutt -f email.mbox
889 - changed some TODO's to FIXME's to keep it grep-consistent
890 - applied Folder support patch from Brian Edginton
891 - fixed pedantic compile warnings, and changed order in src/Makefile.am
892 - removed unneeded cast in src/r_folder.cc
893 2007/06/28
894 - minor adjustment to ctags building in buildgen.sh
895 - applied patch from Brian Edginton for better boost detection
896 in configure.ac
897 - added boost usage message to btool -h output
898 2007/06/21
899 - more porting of OpenSync module to 0.30
900 - added ctags build for opensync source tree to buildgen.sh
901 2007/06/14
902 - changed PKG_CONFIG_PATH setting in rpm script, so that systems
903 like SuSE that have an extensive PKG_CONFIG_PATH
904 in general use will not break on build
905 - added PKG_CONFIG_PATH to debian script too, just in case :-)
906 - added debian/changelog to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
907 - added comment to rpm/barry.spec regarding SuSE RPM builds
908 2007/06/08
909 - applied patch from Niels de Vos fixing debian package build
910 dependency
911 - applied Brian Edginton's Saved Email Messages patch
912 - updated r_saved_messages.cc comment to match header
913 - added GetRecType()/GetUniqueId() to r_saved_messages.h, since
914 SetIds() is already there
915 - removed Address version of operator<<() from message related headers
916 and moved into record.h
917 - added std::hex to message related dumps, and changed output to
918 be more mbox-like
919 - updated doc/CodingStyle.txt to cover switch() statements
920 - opensync compiles again, with 0.30! (not functional yet)
921 - moving closer to more modular and reusable plugin functions
922 - updated release checklist for opensync version number
923 2007/06/07
924 - added doc/CodingStyle.txt... preliminary version
925 2007/06/06
926 - applied Brian Edginton's PIN message patch
927 - changes to PIN message patch:
928 - fixed missing backslash in src/Makefile.am
929 - fixed tab alignment throughout
930 - removed typedef from Address struct
931 - added clear() to Address... might as well, if it it is
932 going to be a standalone type
933 - fixed missing comma in PINMessageFieldLinks table
934 - changed MessageRecordId in PINMessage to load from a new
935 uint32_t field in CommonField, instead of piggy
936 backing on a field for other use
937 - did some testing and found that PINMessage's MessageRecordId
938 is the same as the RecordId given through the SetIds()
939 API... but these Id's are duplicated in the protocol...
940 RecordId is stored in the protocol header, while
941 MessageRecordId is stored in the record it self as
942 a common field... added RecType and RecordId to
943 PIN Message so that we store both of these
944 - updated AUTHORS
945 2007/05/27
946 - added item to gui/TODO
947 - applied Brian Edginton's s11n-boost.h patch
948 2007/05/25
949 - renamed template values to more consistent naming scheme
950 - applied memos and tasks patch from Brian Edginton, slightly
951 modified to split into the new separate files system
952 - changes to memos and tasks classes:
953 - reformatted the code to match coding style
954 (come on Brian) :-)
955 - added copyright notice
956 - changed class to singular (Memo, not Memos)
957 - placed in Barry namespace
958 - added #ifdef header protectors
959 - added new files to Makefile.am
960 - added new r_*.h headers to record.h
961 - added support for Memos and Tasks to tools/btool.cc, based on
962 Brian Edginton's patch
963 (currently commented out, for Boost library reasons):
964 - added doc/CommitPolicy.txt
965 - updated AUTHORS
966 2007/05/24
967 - added ctags generation to buildgen.sh
968 - applied record.{h,cc} fix patch from Brian Edginton
969 - ClassFlag
970 - FreeBusyFlag
971 - Clear() fixes
972 - fixed broken formatting in above patch
973 - refactored record parser classes into separate files for each
974 - changed the ConvertHtoB<> template to inline, as it caused
975 linker errors with the new file layout
976 2007/05/17
977 - fixed bug in Debian packaging that put util commands in
978 /bin and /sbin instead of /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
979 - commited byteswap.h replacement code from gm2net
980 - backup gui:
981 - removed unneeded debug messages on stdout
982 - changed the default for debug output to "off"
983 and added a command line option to turn
984 it on if necessary (--debug-output)
985 - command line option --help now also works
986 - fixed bug in Calendar class where it didn't initialize
987 RecType properly... and cleaned up other RecType
988 code to use the GetDefaultRecType() functions,
989 localizing the constants in one place
990 2007/05/11
991 - applied patches from Brian Edginton, parsing more
992 fields in Contact and Calendar records
993 - added Brian Edginton to AUTHORS
994 - reformatted record.{h,cc} to match the rest of the code,
995 removed commented out code, and removed mention of
996 Outlook from the comments.
997 - updated udev/10-blackberry.rules.Debian for Debian Etch
998 - updated debian/rules to use new udev rules file
999 - removed debian/postinst, as stable versions of Debian now
1000 have a recent udev, and don't need the special handling
1001 - updated Debian build scripts to build separate packages:
1002 libbarry
1003 libbarry-dev
1004 barry-util
1005 barrybackup-gui
1006 - added menu support to Debian barrybackup-gui package
1007 - made the buttons bigger in the backup GUI, as they were too
1008 small on Debian Etch
1009 - opensync plugin:
1010 - more progress in porting to opensync 0.30, heavily
1011 based on the example plugin in the opensync
1012 svn tree... this is a work in progress, and so far
1013 is incomplete
1014 2007/05/04
1015 - opensync plugin:
1016 - partial porting to opensync 0.30 (in progress!)
1017 - fixed bug in sync_done where it reported context error
1018 and then success afterward

1039 2007/04/30
1040 - opensync plugin:
1041 - fixed size check bugs (strlen() == 0 when empty)
1042 - finished refactoring calendar conversion routines
1043 - started timezone parsing, but this may go away
1044 if we use opensync 0.30's time functions and
1045 xml data format...
1046 - added development note to README
1047 2007/04/29
1048 - updated README and opensync-plugin/README with more current
1049 build instructions
1050 - opensync plugin:
1051 - refactored some calendar conversion routines
1052 - added Barry->vCalendar conversion for recurring appointments
1053 2007/04/27
1054 - opensync module:
1055 - removed some unneeded trace logs
1056 - fixed VEventConverter constructor bug, with uninitialized
1057 m_Data pointer
1058 - eased up the requirement that every calendar event
1059 must have a summary... defaults to "<blank subject>"
1060 if empty
1061 - added more VCALENDAR fields to match Barry::Calendar record
1062 - fixed case sensitive compares in vformat.c
1063 2007/04/26
1064 - opensync module work:
1065 - added id map class to map string uid's from OpenSync to
1066 numeric ID's from the Blackberry
1067 - fixed bug in CommitChange() where it was still using
1068 a hard coded calendar record state table
1069 - added lots of logging throughout
1070 - fixed bug where newly added records didn't use the
1071 change object's uid, but created a new ID,
1072 causing another sync on the next run
1073 i.e. (CommitData_t was missing an argument)
1074 - fixed bug where uninitialized notification time was
1075 written to the Blackberry
1076 - more opensync module work:
1077 - refactored the environment class into another subclass
1078 called DatabaseSyncState, and moved some stand-
1079 alone functions from barry_sync.cc into
1080 the environment classes
1081 - added a tagged constructor to the trace class
1082 - fixed idmap::Load() to clear map before loading
1083 2007/04/20
1084 - renamed barry-config to barry-sync, the default configuration
1085 file for the opensync module... and filled it with
1086 a sample configuration
1087 - added code to update the calendar cache, and write it to disk
1088 on success (opensync module)
1089 - added code to clear dirty flags in the device (opensync module)
1090 - allowed comments in the config file
1091 - added vformat.c from libopensync 0.22, since the vformat
1092 routines are not available from the plugin side
1093 2007/04/19
1094 - updated gui/TODO
1095 - added -d switch to bcharge to switch back from 0001 to 0004 mode,
1096 changed the auto-detection logic to ignore iProduct and
1097 only use idProduct, and updated man page
1098 - updated breset to recognize the Pearl in 00004 mode as well
1099 - changed src/probe.cc logic to assume that the second endpoint
1100 pair is the one needed for database communication, instead
1101 of doing a reverse search from the end... newer Pearls
1102 in Dual mode seem to have at least 3 or 4 endpoint pairs,
1103 and the old search didn't always work
1104 - applied sourceforge patch #1696884 from Peter Silva, updating
1105 the Debian build for Etch, and including all files in one deb
1106 - added Peter Silva to AUTHORS file
1107 - uncommented the "make distclean" in debian/rules, and removed
1108 the reliance on /tmp when installing 99-barry-perms.rules
1109 - applied bb_task_format.txt patch from Peter Silva
1110 - fixed each misspelling of "recurrance" to "recurrence"
1111 - tweaked src/probe.cc again for paranoia's sake... start at
1112 offset 1 if more than 1 endpoint pair, otherwise start
1113 search at 0
1114 - split up opensync module into multiple source files, and started
1115 using the opensync vformat routines for parsing and building
1116 the vevent20 data (experimental)
1117 2007/04/04
1118 - more incremental work on the opensync plugin, adding ADDED
1119 and MODIFIED functionality... (experimental!)
1120 2007/03/30
1121 - added code to dump extra descriptors during device discovery,
1122 if found
1123 - bumped opensync version number in configure.ac, and made
1124 the configure scripts more consistent with the rest
1125 of the project
1126 - fixed printf-format size bug in opensync module
1127 2007/03/29
1128 - applied patch from Niels de Vos, fixing deb udev rules for Pearl
1129 - updated AUTHORS
1130 - fixed extra space bug in LDIF output (added space when creating
1131 FullName, even if there was no last name)
1132 - fixed Address Book record parsing in Contact class... the
1133 Blackberry database uses field id 0x20 for both the
1134 first and last names, and if only a last name exists,
1135 the first name will be empty. Fixed parser to handle
1136 this special case, without relying on string length.
1137 Thanks to Troy Engel for reporting above two LDIF bugs.
1138 - added a few more constants to bcharge.cc
1139 - renamed opensync's configure.in to configure.ac
1140 2007/03/17
1141 - fixed bcharge to avoid endless reset loop... oops
1142 2007/03/16
1143 - reorganized bcharge.cc to make it possible to switch between
1144 Pearl modes 0004 and 0001
1145 - added flag to BadPassword exception class, to signal whether
1146 the library considers the device "out of retries" or not
1147 - updated socket.cc for new BadPassword exception
1148 - added special case to Controller class destructor to reset the
1149 device if being destroyed in a half-open state... this is
1150 a temporary fix until we understand how to handle
1151 the "already open" message we get when opening the Desktop
1152 in some cases
1153 - added password prompt dialog to the backup GUI
1154 - fixed possible memory leak in GUI's DeviceInterface::Connect()
1155 2007/03/08
1156 - committed Troy Engel's bbrules_mass_symlinks.patch, fixing
1157 udev rules for the Pearl
1158 - updated 10-blackberry.rules.Debian to match 10-blackberry.rules's
1159 functionality
1160 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to generate all required
1161 RPM's... Thank you! Notes in the README taken from
1162 the sourceforge tracker entry containing the patch.
1163 - added libusb lib flags to tools/ and examples/ makefiles,
1164 and tweaked configure.ac with a better default,
1165 to build cleanly on RHEL 4
1166 - modified rpm/barry.spec:
1167 - does not create doc-only barry base package anymore
1168 - fixed "barry-backup" typo
1169 - removed the patch step, as version 0.7 shouldn't need it
1170 - added license file to each package
1171 - commented out console perms scripts, pending mailing list
1172 discussion
1173 - updated AUTHORS
1174 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to fix RHEL4 compile issues
1175 - fixed 80 column wrapping error in barry.spec, thanks to Troy Engel
1176 for the bug report
1177 - applied Troy Engel's udev permissions patch for Redhat/Fedora
1178 systems, which automatically set the ownership of a
1179 newly plugged in device to the currently logged in console
1180 user.
1181 - added udev/README to document what all those files are for...
1182 part of the text comes from the sourceforge comment
1183 on the above udev permissions patch from Troy Engel
1184 - uncommented the console perms scripts for rpm/barry.spec
1185 - added libglademm-2.4 to gui/README's dependency list
1186 - made usbwrap.* calls more threadsafe
1187 - added Usb::Timeout exception for timeout errors
1188 - added preliminary UsbSerData support to library for GPRS modem
1189 functionality, using Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry's serdata.c
1190 as a guide
1191 - added overloaded Socket::Send() for sending without receiving
1192 - added preliminary pppob command line tool
1193 2007/03/02
1194 - version bump in:
1195 - configure.ac
1196 - src/Makefile.am
1197 - src/version.cc
1198 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1199 - src/Doxyfile
1200 - rpm/barry.spec
1201 - build system tweaks for opensync-plugin, and added a buildgen.sh
1202 for it
1203 - added better debug messages in probe.cc and usbwrap.cc's
1204 device discovery code
1205 - changed error handling for null interface->altsetting pointers
1206 when doing device discovery in usbwrap.cc. Seems that
1207 some devices report a higher number in bNumInterfaces
1208 than are really available... in this case, let's
1209 just ignore the missing data and assume success
1210 - applied udev script patch #1663986 from Troy Engel
1211 - applied barry-bcharge.spec patch #1672178 from Troy Engel
1212 - ReleaseChecklist update
1213 - added rpm/README based on Troy Engel's patch notes
1214 - updated new barry-bcharge.spec for version 0.7, removing patch
1215 dependency
1217 Release: version 0.6 - 2007/02/28
1218 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1219 2007/02/28
1220 - fixed size checks for device database records larger than 64K
1221 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
1222 - added initial release maintainer scripts
1223 - fixed odd backup success message in GUI when doing a backup with
1224 no databases selected in configuration
1225 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
1226 - added udev permissions file patch from Michael Brown
1227 - added Michael Brown to AUTHORS
1228 - updated README, gui/README, and doc/USB-capture.txt
1229 - added -o command line switch to bcharge.cc, and updated man page
1230 2007/02/23
1231 - changed library behaviour so it only turns on libusb debug output
1232 if in data dump mode. In btool, -v controls this output.
1233 - minor stream formatting fix in btool
1234 - added OpenSSL dependency to build for password hash support
1235 - made debug dout() output conditional on Init() flag... In btool,
1236 -v now controls this as well
1237 - reverse engineered more of the initial probe packets, and
1238 implemented probing in struct based code... changes include:
1239 - added support for "attribute fetch" packets, used at
1240 the beginning of USB conversations
1241 - defined object/attribute id codes for the PIN number
1242 - made Protocol::SocketCommand more robust, and implemented
1243 its sequence number behaviour
1244 - moved ModeSelectCommand into SocketCommand, as it is a
1245 socket 0 level command
1246 - added initial protocol struct: PasswordChallenge
1247 - renamed Barry::Packet to DBPacket
1248 - added ZeroPacket for socket 0 packet creation and analysis
1249 - Barry::Packet is now the base class for the above
1250 - implemented socket 0 behaviour in socket.cc
1251 - changed return values for Send/Receive/Packet/NextRecord
1252 members in the Socket class from bool to void, as they
1253 don't generate errors themselves, but only can
1254 have an error if Usb::Device throws an exception.
1255 Cleaned up all code that called these members as well.
1256 - removed "last status" from Socket class as it was unused
1257 - updated probe.cc to use new socket 0 implementation
1258 - removed two of the hard coded packet handshakes in favour
1259 of socket 0 packets
1260 - updated controller.cc:
1261 - uses new socket 0 implementation
1262 - removed "flag" hack when opening sockets and
1263 selecting modes, as it should use the
1264 socket 0 sequence number
1265 - added initial, incomplete prototype header for the C API
1266 - updated some .cvsignore files
1267 - updated TODO
1268 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt, adding rpm spec file
1269 - added the following to ZeroPacket:
1270 - ChallengeSeed()
1271 - RemainingTries()
1272 - SocketResponse()
1273 - SocketSqeuence()
1274 - moved Command() to base Packet class
1275 - added comments to protostructs.h and size constants for the
1276 new PasswordChallenge struct
1277 - added password support to Socket and Controller classes
1278 Thanks to Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry for the openssl
1279 password hashing logic.
1280 - updated btool to use new password support, and updated its man page
1281 2007/02/22
1282 - updated Doxygen input files and version, and added to ReleaseChecklist
1283 - fixed btool PIN output for LDIF mode, now commented in output
1284 - major LDIF overhaul:
1285 - split LDIF specific code out of the record class and
1286 into its own
1287 - fixed "full name" behaviour that added an extra space
1288 in dn attributes, as reported by Troy Engel
1289 - added support for mapping of LDIF attributes to Barry
1290 contact field names
1291 - fixed base64 handling, so attributes are only so encoded
1292 if necessary
1293 - fixed base64 attribute reading inconsistency... some
1294 notes fields were missed in old version if not
1295 encoded
1296 - added support for specifying alternate attribute for
1297 constructing a FQDN, instead of just "cn"
1298 - updated btool and upldif to use new features
1299 - large update to btool manpage
1300 - fixed initialization bug in Contact constructor (missed RecType)
1301 2007/02/15
1302 - added ktrans.cc to make reading of kernel usbfs_snoop logs easier
1303 - removed commented code from translate.cc
1304 - added Pearl handshake support to bcharge.cc, which resets the
1305 Pearl so that the vendor specific 0xFF class exists.
1306 This should allow use of btool on the Pearl.
1307 - added Data::AppendHexString to data.cc
1308 - added better probing support for the Pearl, so it detects the
1309 Product ID 0x0004 mode, and does a search for class 0xFF
1310 instead of hardcoding it.
1311 2007/02/10
1312 - applied README patch from Ian Darwin
1313 - minor tweaks to README
1314 - added missing errno.h header in src/usbwrap.cc for AMD64
1315 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting the bug.
1316 - tightened up size checks in Data::ReleaseBuffer()
1317 - stable libusb *does* return the actual length of the USB packet...
1318 fixed this in usbwrap.cc to set the actual size of read data,
1319 and removed the size hacks elsewhere in the code:
1320 probe.cc, protocol.cc, socket.cc, usbwrap.cc
1321 2007/02/09
1322 - added proper return codes for error conditions in btool.cc
1323 - clarified some stream output code in the library, for hex/dec numbers
1324 - removed old, non-working connect.cc test program
1325 - added iomanip to debug.h
1326 - changed usbwrap to call libusb again if EINTR and EAGAIN
1327 This should fix one of the OpenBSD issues
1328 2007/02/04
1329 - updated AUTHORS
1330 - fixed bug in barrybackup GUI that didn't create the target path
1331 if the user didn't do Edit | Config first.
1332 Thanks to Ian Darwin for reporting the bug.
1333 - applied gui/src/ConfigFile.cc header fix patch for OpenBSD
1334 from Ian Darwin
1335 2007/02/03
1336 - added initial btool.1 man page from Ian Darwin
1337 - updated man/Makefile.am for new btool.1
1338 - updated AUTHORS
1339 - applied btool -h help clarification patch from Ian Darwin
1340 2007/02/02
1341 - reworked exception hierarchy, so applications can handle all
1342 Barry related exceptions, including Usb errors, with
1343 one base class: Barry::Error
1344 - fixed all the ripple changes this caused throughout the codebase
1345 - added BadPassword exception
1346 2007/02/01
1347 - version bump in:
1348 - configure.ac
1349 - src/Makefile.am
1350 - src/version.cc
1351 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1352 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1353 - added usb-level breset.cc command line tool
1354 - fixed bug in gui/src/tarfile.* for systems where
1355 sizeof(int) != sizeof(void*)
1356 - TarFile class now uses a plugin style for the compression
1357 operations, to allow for threadsafe versions if needed
1358 in the future.
1359 - also fixed leaked file handle bug in open_compressed()
1360 - Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this for 64bit systems
1361 - minor signed comparison fixes in the library
1362 - added better protocol data dumping code in probe.cc
1363 - added Usb::Device::BulkDrain(), to prevent Barry from hanging
1364 due to pending reads
1366 Release: version 0.5 - 2007/01/26
1367 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1368 2007/01/26
1369 - added missing errno.h header to gui/src/util.cc
1370 - lots more endian fixes after testing on iMac
1371 - iostream output size fixes
1372 - added option to btool to reset the device via software
1373 - beefed up exception handling in barrybackup
1374 - checked in opensync work-in-progress: trace logging, pointer bugfix
1375 this is still experimental
1376 - added aboutdialog.* files from gtkmm24 2.10.6, so we have a dialog
1377 class for systems running older versions of gtkmm, like
1378 Debian stable
1379 - uncommented the about box menu handler
1380 - added "cleanall" option to root buildgen.sh script
1381 - update ReleaseChecklist.txt
1382 - removed CVS auto-history strings from aboutdialog.*
1383 2007/01/25
1384 - found a link between the unknown field in tagged protocol headers
1385 and the unknown field in RecordStateTable entries. This
1386 field matters when uploading certain databases, such as
1387 Browser Options. It is unknown what this field really
1388 means, but we're calling it RecType. Updated the API
1389 to use this in all parser objects and builder objects
1390 and record objects that use it.
1391 - changed some uses of uint64_t to uint32_t, in Contact and
1392 Calendar record objects... unique IDs only seem to be
1393 32 bits
1394 - added new static function to record classes: GetDefaultRecType()
1395 This returns the default rectype that should work
1396 for that record. Ideally this should be retrieved from
1397 the device, but in the case where a database has no
1398 records, this info would be good to know.
1399 - updated convenience template function Controller::AddRecordByType()
1400 to use GetDefaultRecType()
1401 - documented the recurrence data and how to use it in Calendar objects
1402 - added data debug output for incoming USB packets in the
1403 socket class... when we ported to the stable libusb
1404 we lost some of the verbose output... this should get it
1405 back. (In the official release, you need to uncomment
1406 ddout() in debug.h for the full blast of debug output).
1407 - backup GUI updates:
1408 - changed error_done signal into a pure error signal,
1409 and changed the logic so the restore continues
1410 even if there was a protocol error on one database
1411 - changed status bar messages to show what's happening
1412 i.e. Backup or Restore
1413 - default to not restore the "Handheld Agent" database as
1414 it appears to be read-only on the device
1415 - added temporary Restore & Backup mode for debugging
1416 - added extra hyphen to backup files to show date/time better
1417 - updated GUI to save and restore the new RecType field
1418 supported now by the library
1419 2007/01/21
1420 - added future considerations to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1421 - applied big endian patch from Jonathan Hudson
1422 - changes to patch:
1423 - removed endian.h include from barry.h, since applications
1424 using the library should not care about endianness
1425 - hard coded the path to config.h in endian.h
1426 so that endian.h never makes it into the final
1427 install
1428 - removed DEFAULT_INCLUDES setting from src/Makefile.am
1429 for the same reason
1430 - removed config.h dependency in btool.cc and used library
1431 Version call instead
1432 - added big/little endian text to the Barry::Version call
1433 - updated AUTHORS
1434 - fixed install location of bcharge when building with ./configure;
1435 now goes to sbin/ for both source compile and binary packages
1436 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this bug.
1437 2007/01/20
1438 - added smarter timeout values to controller, and allowed
1439 timeout overrides in the packet, socket, and usbwrap code...
1440 extra timeouts are needed for erasing databases for
1441 some older devices
1442 - added an explicit DataDumpParser class to btool.cc, as the
1443 library doesn't always have extreme verbose debugging on...
1444 this makes sure anyone can always get raw database packets
1445 through btool, for development
1446 - added thread callback signals for error finishes and erase_db
1447 operations, so the GUI is updated properly
1448 - more GUI cleanups (status bar updates, etc)
1449 - finished implementation of GUI restore
1450 - fixed gtkmm/glibmm exception handling when the exceptions
1451 occur in sigc signal handlers... in that case,
1452 exceptions need to be handled with
1453 Glib::add_exception_handler()
1454 - added filename-only reading support to TarFile class
1455 - added pending gui/TODO items
1456 2007/01/19
1457 - backup GUI now properly shows progress
1458 - the buttons become insensitive when backup is busy
1459 - refactored directory check code, and added mkdir check
1460 when to the backup setup (so the directory exists
1461 when we try to write to it)
1462 - updated code to use Barry::Data in new namespace
1463 2007/01/18
1464 - moved Data class into Barry namespace
1465 2007/01/13
1466 - updated copyright dates for the new year
1467 - clarified exception message in controller.cc
1468 - fixed pointer initialization bug in controller.cc
1469 - added documentation comments to parser.h and builder.h
1470 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt
1471 - updated README
1472 - changed Barry library configure scripts to make better
1473 use of pkg-config for autodetecting dependencies
1474 - added initial Barry Backup GUI (gui/ directory), capable of making
1475 backups only at this point
1476 2007/01/11
1477 - added doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1478 - added version API, returning version number and string
1479 - added Troy Engel to AUTHORS
1480 - added special case to bcharge.cc for the Blackberry Pearl,
1481 which doesn't reset itself after the charge handshake
1482 Thanks to Troy Engel for testing.
1483 2007/01/05
1484 - added pkg-config support for the library (libbarry-0.pc.in)
1485 - fixed compile error on g++ 3.3 systems (missing stdint.h
1486 in probe.h)
1487 - fixed protocol hang at end of Controller operation... in
1488 controller destructor, it was deleting the USB interface
1489 before closing the socket at the BlackBerry level, thereby
1490 leaving the device in Desktop mode
1491 2007/01/04
1492 - support the newer udev packages on Ubuntu, which need slightly
1493 different rules
1494 - modified bcharge.cc to search for Pearl devices too.
1495 USB product ID 6
1496 - added Pearl product ID to probe code, but likely not functional
1497 yet until we find someone able to get a USB capture for us
1498 2006/12/29

1506 This begins the barry binary release, currently only
1507 including the bcharge utility, but possibly more in

1517 a future Debian install
1518 - added more cleaning to buildgen.sh
1519 - added new udev rule file for Debian stable
1520 - hardcoded g++ to 3.3 in debian/rules as I have multiple versions
1521 on my system and need to compile releases with stable
1522 2006/12/21
1523 - ported Barry to use the stable branch of libusb
1524 NOTE: no longer depends on the devel libusb tarball!
1525 Just use your distro's libusb packages.
1526 - fixed more endian issues
1527 - minor update to TODO
1528 2006/12/15

1545 - added a "clean" option to the buildgen.sh script... maintainer's
1546 use only
1547 - reworked autoconf and automake files, to support
1548 barry as a library, to move the programs into their
1549 own tools directory, and support a proper installation
1550 - fixed headers in parser.h, btool.cc, and upldif.cc to work
1551 properly when installed standalone
1552 - added tools/Makefile.plain for testing compiling against
1553 installed barry library
1554 - added commentary on version number system
1555 - removed Makefile.conf and Makefile.orig, as new autoconf
1556 system supercedes it

1558 - added library version number to autoconf build
1559 - changed boost flag to __BARRY_BOOST_MODE__ to avoid collisions
1560 - removed debug.h dependency from btool.cc
1561 - removed libusb check in favour of specific --with-libusb

1593 specified multiple times to work with multiple records
1594 at once
1595 - added Calendar sync code to the opensync module (not complete)
1596 - cleaned up exception handling in the opensync module, making
1597 more use of the base exception to make sure no
1598 exceptions leak into the C library code
1600 Release: version 0.0.2 - 2006/10/12
1601 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1602 2006/10/12

1604 - minor updates to documentation to prepare for release
1605 2006/09/29
1606 - added stdint.h to parser.h for uint32_t. Thanks Ron Gage for
1607 the bug report
1608 2006/09/08
1609 - large refactoring of the packet parsing and building code,
1610 splitting the code into 3 groups:
1611 - record: handles record specific parsing and building...
1612 this is mostly subfields with CommonField structs
1613 as their headers, but sometimes has a specific
1614 header of its own, in the case of email
1615 Note: email's header is as yet undecoded.
1616 Record does not know the details of the packet
1617 formats, only the formats of its own record data.
1618 - packet: handles building of complete command packets
1619 and handles parsing of commonly used header values,
1620 providing an API for it... packet does not know
1621 the record format details, but does know the
1622 details of each Database Operation (protocol.h)
1623 packet format.
1624 So far, it seems that there is a real separation
1625 of operation formats and record formats, with the
1626 record formats being the same even with different
1627 database operation codes (GET_RECORDS /
1628 OLD_GET_RECORDS), which was not confirmed before.
1629 See the header size of the email record after
1630 refactoring.
1631 - controller: handles device state, and the management of
1632 sockets, commands, and checking for response values.
1633 The Controller object does not know the format
1634 of either the record or the packet it is sending,
1635 but does know the protocol handshake logic used
1636 to talk to the device.
1637 - implemented SetRecord (SET_RECORD_BY_INDEX)... syncing, here
1638 we come!
1639 - spelling correction in opensync-plugin/AUTHORS
1640 2006/09/01
1641 - added sample hotplug scripts
1642 - added .cvsignore files for doxygen and opensync directories
1643 - added src/endian.h... still need to add configure support to
1644 handle non-little-endian machines
1645 - added exception handler in opensync plugin commit_change()
1646 - removed the device reset code in probe.cc, as resetting a device
1647 can renumber the devices in /proc on kernel 2.4.x,
1648 and cause a failure to reach the device...
1649 FIXME - this should be changed someday to reset if probing
1650 fails, and restart the probe on reset, as sometimes
1651 the blackberry devices respond differently when not reset
1652 Ideally, the probe protocol should be properly reverse
1653 engineered.
1654 - added support for retrieving record state table, which is needed
1655 for smarter syncing
1656 - added support for retrieving, deleting, and clearing the dirty
1657 flags of individual blackberry device records
1658 - added endian macros throughout the code
1659 2006/07/13
1660 - added opensync-plugin to root Makefile's clean
1661 - updated time conversion calls to match opensync's latest SVN
1662 - added opensync_change_set_changetype() (only add for now,
1663 for development)
1664 - removed slow sync functions for now
1665 2006/07/07
1666 - added quick "install" makefile target, to src/install by default
1667 - added static library target... this is temporary until autoconf
1668 stuff is added properly... needed for the opensync plugin
1669 - documented in comments that Barry::BError is intended to be
1670 the base classes for all exceptions
1671 - added first round of implementation of an opensync plugin, based
1672 on the example plugin code from the opensync sources
1673 2006/06/22
1674 - added to Contact record class:
1675 - Clear()
1676 - ReadLdif() to load and parse LDAP data
1677 - added fragmented send support to Socket class
1678 - added Probe::FindActive() to make client programs more streamlined
1679 - fixed hex/decimal printing of record counts in btool
1680 - added upldif.cc, a utility to take ldapsearch output on stdin
1681 and upload it to a blackberry
1682 - updated src/.cvsignore
1683 2006/06/16
1684 - added parsing of service book fields:
1685 - old and new name
1686 - old and new unique ID (UID)
1687 - content ID (CID)
1688 - old and new description
1689 - DSID
1690 - bes domain / domain
1691 - date change in legal.txt
1692 - added initial parsing of ServiceBook field 0x09, and calling it
1693 ServiceBookConfig for now, for lack of a better name
1694 - added parsing for ServiceBook field 0x02 on 72xx Blackberries...
1695 seems to be a name or description, but doesn't appear
1696 in the device's own GUI... called "Hidden Name" for now
1697 2006/06/09
1698 - added ServiceBook record class and parser code, based on some
1699 of Ron Gage's reverse engineering... code is by Chris Frey
1700 - added AUTHORS file
1701 - fixed the libusb set_configuration/claim_interface order
1702 bug in controller.{h,cc}... already fixed in probe,
1703 but not controller. Thanks Ron Gage for finding this.
1704 2006/05/25

1721 2006/03/29
1722 - copyright dates updated for 2006
1723 2006/01/05
1724 - backed out update to latest libusb DEVEL tree, since it is buggy.
1725 Stick with libusb 2005/11/26

1727 - added clean target to convenience Makefile
1728 - added Boost to list of dependencies in README
1729 - fixed minor compile warnings in base64.cc
1730 - fixed new USB discovery code, and changed endpoint usage to use
1731 it, instead of the READ_ENDPOINT and WRITE_ENDPOINT
1732 constants... constants are now removed
1733 common.h, controller.cc, probe.cc, probe.h, usbwrap.cc
1734 - added ClearHalt() to Usb::Device (usbwrap.cc)
1735 - updated usbwrap.h to match latest libusb CVS devel tree

1751 - renamed CommonField union from data to u to be consistent
1752 - added return_code field to DBAccess struct, for error checking
1753 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
1754 throw exception in controller.cc
1755 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
1756 contact data to the device, it may be important to write
1757 group link items last, since they reference other contacts...
1758 This needs to be tested, and if not required, removed.
1759 - added GROUP_FLAG field code to Contact parser class
1760 - fixed offset bug in Contact and Calendar Build() functions
1761 - fixed name bug in Contact::Build(), now output only with data

1769 controller.cc instead of record.cc parsers and builders
1770 - parser code now accepts an offset, to govern start of record data
1771 - changed Data sizes from int to size_t and removed casts
1772 - removed unneeded Parser::GetHeaderSize() (new protostructs make
1773 this obsolete)

1775 2005/12/10
1776 - added s11n-boost.h serialization templates for boost::serialization
1777 - added boost::serialization to build
1778 - minor change in usbwrap.cc to display error codes in decimal
1779 - added SizePacket special case code to Socket::Send()... this is
1780 required when uploaded packet size is a multiple of 0x40,
1781 a special 3 byte size packet is sent
1782 - moved some record class variables to public: so they can be
1783 properly serialized
1784 - fixed variable name but in RecordBuilder template
1785 - added -f switch to btool, for saving and loading of record data

1798 optimize away protocol struct casts
1799 see:
1800 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25235

1804 02a2a3cc?hl=en#5714701b02a2a3cc
1805 - changed headers so that any low level protocol-specific sizes and
1806 structs are completely hidden in the library...
1807 this adds library-only header: protostructs.h
1809 Release: version 0.0.1 - 2005/11/25
1810 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1830 - added README documentation in preparation for future release
1831 2005/11/19
1832 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
1833 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
1834 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
1835 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
1836 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
1837 Observed maximum blank count: 1
1838 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
1839 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
1840 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
1841 seem to need more time...)
1842 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
1843 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
1844 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
1845 with Python, if used(?)
1846 - added Message class for Email records
1847 - removed the "Get*" database functions and replaced with
1848 general LoadDatabase() call, which loads any database
1849 available, and parses it with a Parser object
1850 - added GetDBID() for searching for database numbers via name
1851 - added test code to retrieve and display all email
1852 - cleaned up comments

1862 - removed Test() function in Controller object, and made class
1863 better suited to its general API purpose
1864 - changed OpenMode() so it loads command table and DBDB... it is now
1865 a public API function
1866 - moved Controller test code to btool.cc and made tool more
1867 generically useful... can now download any DB by name on
1868 the command line
1869 - added mode checks to Controller
1870 - added -t and -d command line options to btool
1871 - added base64 routines from John Walker / Fourmilab and Citadel/UX

1876 - renamed sbcommon.* to common.*
1877 - increased USB default timeout to 2 seconds
1878 - fixed formatting bug in Data operator<< output
1879 - cleaned up the protocol packet structs, getting rid of the
1880 confusing param/simple split... param is now the tableCmd
1881 from the Command Table
1882 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
1883 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
1884 the Cassis spec more closely
1885 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing
1886 - fixed Socket::Close() so on error, socket flags are reset.
1887 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
1888 destructors
1889 2005/11/17
1890 - added Doxyfile to the project
1891 - tuned Makefile
1892 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
1893 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
1894 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent
1895 data transfers.
1896 - added Command Table parsing and protocol support
1897 Blackberry class, and CommandTable record class
1898 - added Database database parsing and protocol support
1899 Blackberry class and DatabaseDatabase record class
1900 - added Address book retrieval support - dumps data to stdout for now
1901 - fixed bug in CopyOnWrite mode in Data class, where could allocate
1902 less buffer than data copied
1903 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
1904 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
1905 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
1906 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
1907 data
1908 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
1909 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
1910 saved
1911 - implemented socket::Close()
1912 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0
1913 - added Socket::NextRecord() for multiple record data transfers
1914 - fixed input handling bug in translate.cc
1915 2005/11/11
1916 - added .cvsignore files to project
1917 - added README notes to document the source architecture
1918 - added dbsetup data script, which shows how to get into database
1919 mode, using the RIM Desktop mode, and open a socket
1920 - added blackberry.{h,cc} class
1921 - added command line parameters to bbtool.cc
1922 -l = list only
1923 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
1924 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
1925 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
1926 results
1927 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
1928 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
1929 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
1930 - regular debug output
1931 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
1932 syslog someday, and never turned off)
1933 - raw data dump output
1934 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
1935 numbers into english (limited success)
1936 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
1937 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
1938 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
1939 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
1940 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
1941 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
1942 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
1943 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
1944 for socket 0 operations.
1945 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
1946 MAKE_PACKET()
1947 COMMAND()
1948 IS_COMMAND()
1949 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
1950 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
1951 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
1952 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
1953 2005/10/20
1954 - syncberry tree started
