6 - updated maintainer/README
7 - updated maintainer/release.sh to use new HEAD feature too
8 2007/05/01
9 - added pppob to rpm barry.spec
10 - bumped release number in barry.spec
11 2007/04/30
12 - opensync plugin:
13 - fixed size check bugs (strlen() == 0 when empty)
14 - finished refactoring calendar conversion routines
15 - started timezone parsing, but this may go away
16 if we use opensync 0.30's time functions and
17 xml data format...
18 - added development note to README
19 2007/04/29
20 - updated README and opensync-plugin/README with more current
21 build instructions
22 - opensync plugin:
23 - refactored some calendar conversion routines
24 - added Barry->vCalendar conversion for recurring appointments
25 2007/04/27
26 - opensync module:
27 - removed some unneeded trace logs
28 - fixed VEventConverter constructor bug, with uninitialized
29 m_Data pointer
30 - eased up the requirement that every calendar event
31 must have a summary... defaults to "<blank subject>"
32 if empty
33 - added more VCALENDAR fields to match Barry::Calendar record
34 - fixed case sensitive compares in vformat.c
35 2007/04/26
36 - opensync module work:
37 - added id map class to map string uid's from OpenSync to
38 numeric ID's from the Blackberry
39 - fixed bug in CommitChange() where it was still using
40 a hard coded calendar record state table
41 - added lots of logging throughout
42 - fixed bug where newly added records didn't use the
43 change object's uid, but created a new ID,
44 causing another sync on the next run
45 i.e. (CommitData_t was missing an argument)
46 - fixed bug where uninitialized notification time was
47 written to the Blackberry
48 - more opensync module work:
49 - refactored the environment class into another subclass
50 called DatabaseSyncState, and moved some stand-
51 alone functions from barry_sync.cc into
52 the environment classes
53 - added a tagged constructor to the trace class
54 - fixed idmap::Load() to clear map before loading
55 2007/04/20
56 - renamed barry-config to barry-sync, the default configuration
57 file for the opensync module... and filled it with
58 a sample configuration
59 - added code to update the calendar cache, and write it to disk
60 on success (opensync module)
61 - added code to clear dirty flags in the device (opensync module)
62 - allowed comments in the config file
63 - added vformat.c from libopensync 0.22, since the vformat
64 routines are not available from the plugin side
65 2007/04/19
66 - updated gui/TODO
67 - added -d switch to bcharge to switch back from 0001 to 0004 mode,
68 changed the auto-detection logic to ignore iProduct and
69 only use idProduct, and updated man page
70 - updated breset to recognize the Pearl in 00004 mode as well
71 - changed src/probe.cc logic to assume that the second endpoint
72 pair is the one needed for database communication, instead
73 of doing a reverse search from the end... newer Pearls
74 in Dual mode seem to have at least 3 or 4 endpoint pairs,
75 and the old search didn't always work
76 - applied sourceforge patch #1696884 from Peter Silva, updating
77 the Debian build for Etch, and including all files in one deb
78 - added Peter Silva to AUTHORS file
79 - uncommented the "make distclean" in debian/rules, and removed
80 the reliance on /tmp when installing 99-barry-perms.rules
81 - applied bb_task_format.txt patch from Peter Silva
82 - fixed each misspelling of "recurrance" to "recurrence"
83 - tweaked src/probe.cc again for paranoia's sake... start at
84 offset 1 if more than 1 endpoint pair, otherwise start
85 search at 0
86 - split up opensync module into multiple source files, and started
87 using the opensync vformat routines for parsing and building
88 the vevent20 data (experimental)
89 2007/04/04
90 - more incremental work on the opensync plugin, adding ADDED
91 and MODIFIED functionality... (experimental!)
92 2007/03/30
93 - added code to dump extra descriptors during device discovery,
94 if found
95 - bumped opensync version number in configure.ac, and made
96 the configure scripts more consistent with the rest
97 of the project
98 - fixed printf-format size bug in opensync module
99 2007/03/29
100 - applied patch from Niels de Vos, fixing deb udev rules for Pearl
101 - updated AUTHORS
102 - fixed extra space bug in LDIF output (added space when creating
103 FullName, even if there was no last name)
104 - fixed Address Book record parsing in Contact class... the
105 Blackberry database uses field id 0x20 for both the
106 first and last names, and if only a last name exists,
107 the first name will be empty. Fixed parser to handle
108 this special case, without relying on string length.
109 Thanks to Troy Engel for reporting above two LDIF bugs.
110 - added a few more constants to bcharge.cc
111 - renamed opensync's configure.in to configure.ac
112 2007/03/17
113 - fixed bcharge to avoid endless reset loop... oops
114 2007/03/16
115 - reorganized bcharge.cc to make it possible to switch between
116 Pearl modes 0004 and 0001
117 - added flag to BadPassword exception class, to signal whether
118 the library considers the device "out of retries" or not
119 - updated socket.cc for new BadPassword exception
120 - added special case to Controller class destructor to reset the
121 device if being destroyed in a half-open state... this is
122 a temporary fix until we understand how to handle
123 the "already open" message we get when opening the Desktop
124 in some cases
125 - added password prompt dialog to the backup GUI
126 - fixed possible memory leak in GUI's DeviceInterface::Connect()
127 2007/03/08
128 - committed Troy Engel's bbrules_mass_symlinks.patch, fixing
129 udev rules for the Pearl
130 - updated 10-blackberry.rules.Debian to match 10-blackberry.rules's
131 functionality
132 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to generate all required
133 RPM's... Thank you! Notes in the README taken from
134 the sourceforge tracker entry containing the patch.
135 - added libusb lib flags to tools/ and examples/ makefiles,
136 and tweaked configure.ac with a better default,
137 to build cleanly on RHEL 4
138 - modified rpm/barry.spec:
139 - does not create doc-only barry base package anymore
140 - fixed "barry-backup" typo
141 - removed the patch step, as version 0.7 shouldn't need it
142 - added license file to each packageo
143 - commented out console perms scripts, pending mailing list
144 discussion
145 - updated AUTHORS
146 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to fix RHEL4 compile issues
147 - fixed 80 column wrapping error in barry.spec, thanks to Troy Engel
148 for the bug report
149 - applied Troy Engel's udev permissions patch for Redhat/Fedora
150 systems, which automatically set the ownership of a
151 newly plugged in device to the currently logged in console
152 user.
153 - added udev/README to document what all those files are for...
154 part of the text comes from the sourceforge comment
155 on the above udev permissions patch from Troy Engel
156 - uncommented the console perms scripts for rpm/barry.spec
157 - added libglademm-2.4 to gui/README's dependency list
158 - made usbwrap.* calls more threadsafe
159 - added Usb::Timeout exception for timeout errors
160 - added preliminary UsbSerData support to library for GPRS modem
161 functionality, using Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry's serdata.c
162 as a guide
163 - added overloaded Socket::Send() for sending without receiving
164 - added preliminary pppob command line tool
165 2007/03/02
166 - version bump in:
167 - configure.ac
168 - src/Makefile.am
169 - src/version.cc
170 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
171 - src/Doxyfile
172 - rpm/barry.spec
173 - build system tweaks for opensync-plugin, and added a buildgen.sh
174 for it
175 - added better debug messages in probe.cc and usbwrap.cc's
176 device discovery code
177 - changed error handling for null interface->altsetting pointers
178 when doing device discovery in usbwrap.cc. Seems that
179 some devices report a higher number in bNumInterfaces
180 than are really available... in this case, let's
181 just ignore the missing data and assume success
182 - applied udev script patch #1663986 from Troy Engel
183 - applied barry-bcharge.spec patch #1672178 from Troy Engel
184 - ReleaseChecklist update
185 - added rpm/README based on Troy Engel's patch notes
186 - updated new barry-bcharge.spec for version 0.7, removing patch
187 dependency
189 Release: version 0.6 - 2007/02/28
190 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
191 2007/02/28
192 - fixed size checks for device database records larger than 64K
193 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
194 - added initial release maintainer scripts
195 - fixed odd backup success message in GUI when doing a backup with
196 no databases selected in configuration
197 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
198 - added udev permissions file patch from Michael Brown
199 - added Michael Brown to AUTHORS
200 - updated README, gui/README, and doc/USB-capture.txt
201 - added -o command line switch to bcharge.cc, and updated man page
202 2007/02/23
203 - changed library behaviour so it only turns on libusb debug output
204 if in data dump mode. In btool, -v controls this output.
205 - minor stream formatting fix in btool
206 - added OpenSSL dependency to build for password hash support
207 - made debug dout() output conditional on Init() flag... In btool,
208 -v now controls this as well
209 - reverse engineered more of the initial probe packets, and
210 implemented probing in struct based code... changes include:
211 - added support for "attribute fetch" packets, used at
212 the beginning of USB conversations
213 - defined object/attribute id codes for the PIN number
214 - made Protocol::SocketCommand more robust, and implemented
215 its sequence number behaviour
216 - moved ModeSelectCommand into SocketCommand, as it is a
217 socket 0 level command
218 - added initial protocol struct: PasswordChallenge
219 - renamed Barry::Packet to DBPacket
220 - added ZeroPacket for socket 0 packet creation and analysis
221 - Barry::Packet is now the base class for the above
222 - implemented socket 0 behaviour in socket.cc
223 - changed return values for Send/Receive/Packet/NextRecord
224 members in the Socket class from bool to void, as they
225 don't generate errors themselves, but only can
226 have an error if Usb::Device throws an exception.
227 Cleaned up all code that called these members as well.
228 - removed "last status" from Socket class as it was unused
229 - updated probe.cc to use new socket 0 implementation
230 - removed two of the hard coded packet handshakes in favour
231 of socket 0 packets
232 - updated controller.cc:
233 - uses new socket 0 implementation
234 - removed "flag" hack when opening sockets and
235 selecting modes, as it should use the
236 socket 0 sequence number
237 - added initial, incomplete prototype header for the C API
238 - updated some .cvsignore files
239 - updated TODO
240 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt, adding rpm spec file
241 - added the following to ZeroPacket:
242 - ChallengeSeed()
243 - RemainingTries()
244 - SocketResponse()
245 - SocketSqeuence()
246 - moved Command() to base Packet class
247 - added comments to protostructs.h and size constants for the
248 new PasswordChallenge struct
249 - added password support to Socket and Controller classes
250 Thanks to Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry for the openssl
251 password hashing logic.
252 - updated btool to use new password support, and updated its man page
253 2007/02/22
254 - updated Doxygen input files and version, and added to ReleaseChecklist
255 - fixed btool PIN output for LDIF mode, now commented in output
256 - major LDIF overhaul:
257 - split LDIF specific code out of the record class and
258 into its own
259 - fixed "full name" behaviour that added an extra space
260 in dn attributes, as reported by Troy Engel
261 - added support for mapping of LDIF attributes to Barry
262 contact field names
263 - fixed base64 handling, so attributes are only so encoded
264 if necessary
265 - fixed base64 attribute reading inconsistency... some
266 notes fields were missed in old version if not
267 encoded
268 - added support for specifying alternate attribute for
269 constructing a FQDN, instead of just "cn"
270 - updated btool and upldif to use new features
271 - large update to btool manpage
272 - fixed initialization bug in Contact constructor (missed RecType)
273 2007/02/15
274 - added ktrans.cc to make reading of kernel usbfs_snoop logs easier
275 - removed commented code from translate.cc
276 - added Pearl handshake support to bcharge.cc, which resets the
277 Pearl so that the vendor specific 0xFF class exists.
278 This should allow use of btool on the Pearl.
279 - added Data::AppendHexString to data.cc
280 - added better probing support for the Pearl, so it detects the
281 Product ID 0x0004 mode, and does a search for class 0xFF
282 instead of hardcoding it.
283 2007/02/10
284 - applied README patch from Ian Darwin
285 - minor tweaks to README
286 - added missing errno.h header in src/usbwrap.cc for AMD64
287 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting the bug.
288 - tightened up size checks in Data::ReleaseBuffer()
289 - stable libusb *does* return the actual length of the USB packet...
290 fixed this in usbwrap.cc to set the actual size of read data,
291 and removed the size hacks elsewhere in the code:
292 probe.cc, protocol.cc, socket.cc, usbwrap.cc
293 2007/02/09
294 - added proper return codes for error conditions in btool.cc
295 - clarified some stream output code in the library, for hex/dec numbers
296 - removed old, non-working connect.cc test program
297 - added iomanip to debug.h
298 - changed usbwrap to call libusb again if EINTR and EAGAIN
299 This should fix one of the OpenBSD issues
300 2007/02/04
301 - updated AUTHORS
302 - fixed bug in barrybackup GUI that didn't create the target path
303 if the user didn't do Edit | Config first.
304 Thanks to Ian Darwin for reporting the bug.
305 - applied gui/src/ConfigFile.cc header fix patch for OpenBSD
306 from Ian Darwin
307 2007/02/03
308 - added initial btool.1 man page from Ian Darwin
309 - updated man/Makefile.am for new btool.1
310 - updated AUTHORS
311 - applied btool -h help clarification patch from Ian Darwin
312 2007/02/02
313 - reworked exception hierarchy, so applications can handle all
314 Barry related exceptions, including Usb errors, with
315 one base class: Barry::Error
316 - fixed all the ripple changes this caused throughout the codebase
317 - added BadPassword exception
318 2007/02/01
319 - version bump in:
320 - configure.ac
321 - src/Makefile.am
322 - src/version.cc
323 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
324 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
325 - added usb-level breset.cc command line tool
326 - fixed bug in gui/src/tarfile.* for systems where
327 sizeof(int) != sizeof(void*)
328 - TarFile class now uses a plugin style for the compression
329 operations, to allow for threadsafe versions if needed
330 in the future.
331 - also fixed leaked file handle bug in open_compressed()
332 - Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this for 64bit systems
333 - minor signed comparison fixes in the library
334 - added better protocol data dumping code in probe.cc
335 - added Usb::Device::BulkDrain(), to prevent Barry from hanging
336 due to pending reads
338 Release: version 0.5 - 2007/01/26
339 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
340 2007/01/26
341 - added missing errno.h header to gui/src/util.cc
342 - lots more endian fixes after testing on iMac
343 - iostream output size fixes
344 - added option to btool to reset the device via software
345 - beefed up exception handling in barrybackup
346 - checked in opensync work-in-progress: trace logging, pointer bugfix
347 this is still experimental
348 - added aboutdialog.* files from gtkmm24 2.10.6, so we have a dialog
349 class for systems running older versions of gtkmm, like
350 Debian stable
351 - uncommented the about box menu handler
352 - added "cleanall" option to root buildgen.sh script
353 - update ReleaseChecklist.txt
354 - removed CVS auto-history strings from aboutdialog.*
355 2007/01/25
356 - found a link between the unknown field in tagged protocol headers
357 and the unknown field in RecordStateTable entries. This
358 field matters when uploading certain databases, such as
359 Browser Options. It is unknown what this field really
360 means, but we're calling it RecType. Updated the API
361 to use this in all parser objects and builder objects
362 and record objects that use it.
363 - changed some uses of uint64_t to uint32_t, in Contact and
364 Calendar record objects... unique IDs only seem to be
365 32 bits
366 - added new static function to record classes: GetDefaultRecType()
367 This returns the default rectype that should work
368 for that record. Ideally this should be retrieved from
369 the device, but in the case where a database has no
370 records, this info would be good to know.
371 - updated convenience template function Controller::AddRecordByType()
372 to use GetDefaultRecType()
373 - documented the recurrence data and how to use it in Calendar objects
374 - added data debug output for incoming USB packets in the
375 socket class... when we ported to the stable libusb
376 we lost some of the verbose output... this should get it
377 back. (In the official release, you need to uncomment
378 ddout() in debug.h for the full blast of debug output).
379 - backup GUI updates:
380 - changed error_done signal into a pure error signal,
381 and changed the logic so the restore continues
382 even if there was a protocol error on one database
383 - changed status bar messages to show what's happening
384 i.e. Backup or Restore
385 - default to not restore the "Handheld Agent" database as
386 it appears to be read-only on the device
387 - added temporary Restore & Backup mode for debugging
388 - added extra hyphen to backup files to show date/time better
389 - updated GUI to save and restore the new RecType field
390 supported now by the library
391 2007/01/21
392 - added future considerations to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
393 - applied big endian patch from Jonathan Hudson
394 - changes to patch:
395 - removed endian.h include from barry.h, since applications
396 using the library should not care about endianness
397 - hard coded the path to config.h in endian.h
398 so that endian.h never makes it into the final
399 install
400 - removed DEFAULT_INCLUDES setting from src/Makefile.am
401 for the same reason
402 - removed config.h dependency in btool.cc and used library
403 Version call instead
404 - added big/little endian text to the Barry::Version call
405 - updated AUTHORS
406 - fixed install location of bcharge when building with ./configure;
407 now goes to sbin/ for both source compile and binary packages
408 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this bug.
409 2007/01/20
410 - added smarter timeout values to controller, and allowed
411 timeout overrides in the packet, socket, and usbwrap code...
412 extra timeouts are needed for erasing databases for
413 some older devices
414 - added an explicit DataDumpParser class to btool.cc, as the
415 library doesn't always have extreme verbose debugging on...
416 this makes sure anyone can always get raw database packets
417 through btool, for development
418 - added thread callback signals for error finishes and erase_db
419 operations, so the GUI is updated properly
420 - more GUI cleanups (status bar updates, etc)
421 - finished implementation of GUI restore
422 - fixed gtkmm/glibmm exception handling when the exceptions
423 occur in sigc signal handlers... in that case,
424 exceptions need to be handled with
425 Glib::add_exception_handler()
426 - added filename-only reading support to TarFile class
427 - added pending gui/TODO items
428 2007/01/19
429 - backup GUI now properly shows progress
430 - the buttons become insensitive when backup is busy
431 - refactored directory check code, and added mkdir check
432 when to the backup setup (so the directory exists
433 when we try to write to it)
434 - updated code to use Barry::Data in new namespace
435 2007/01/18
436 - moved Data class into Barry namespace
437 2007/01/13
438 - updated copyright dates for the new year
439 - clarified exception message in controller.cc
440 - fixed pointer initialization bug in controller.cc
441 - added documentation comments to parser.h and builder.h
442 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt
443 - updated README
444 - changed Barry library configure scripts to make better
445 use of pkg-config for autodetecting dependencies
446 - added initial Barry Backup GUI (gui/ directory), capable of making
447 backups only at this point
448 2007/01/11
449 - added doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
450 - added version API, returning version number and string
451 - added Troy Engel to AUTHORS
452 - added special case to bcharge.cc for the Blackberry Pearl,
453 which doesn't reset itself after the charge handshake
454 Thanks to Troy Engel for testing.
455 2007/01/05
456 - added pkg-config support for the library (libbarry-0.pc.in)
457 - fixed compile error on g++ 3.3 systems (missing stdint.h
458 in probe.h)
459 - fixed protocol hang at end of Controller operation... in
460 controller destructor, it was deleting the USB interface
461 before closing the socket at the BlackBerry level, thereby
462 leaving the device in Desktop mode
463 2007/01/04
464 - support the newer udev packages on Ubuntu, which need slightly
465 different rules
466 - modified bcharge.cc to search for Pearl devices too.
467 USB product ID 6
468 - added Pearl product ID to probe code, but likely not functional
469 yet until we find someone able to get a USB capture for us
470 2006/12/29
471 - version bump in configure.ac and src/Makefile.am
473 Release: version 0.4 - 2006/12/29
474 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
475 2006/12/29
476 - added bcharge.cc to the tools/ directory (whoohoo!)
477 - added initial release version of rpm/barry.spec (aka bcharge.spec)
478 This begins the barry binary release, currently only
479 including the bcharge utility, but possibly more in
480 the future. Future binary packages will likely include
481 libbarry, libbarry-devel, etc, which barry will then
482 depend on.
483 - added udev rule script for BlackBerry devices
484 - added man/ directory and bcharge.1 manpage
485 - added debian/ directory for building deb packages, with initial
486 package scripts
487 - added rpm/make-rpm-tarball.sh for building RPMs
488 - split out technical docs into separate libbarry.docs file for
489 a future Debian install
490 - added more cleaning to buildgen.sh
491 - added new udev rule file for Debian stable
492 - hardcoded g++ to 3.3 in debian/rules as I have multiple versions
493 on my system and need to compile releases with stable
494 2006/12/21
495 - ported Barry to use the stable branch of libusb
496 NOTE: no longer depends on the devel libusb tarball!
497 Just use your distro's libusb packages.
498 - fixed more endian issues
499 - minor update to TODO
500 2006/12/15
501 - moved Exceptions, Hacking, and VersionNotes to doc/
502 - added doc/USB-capture.txt
503 2006/12/08
504 - added Controller::AddRecord() and template helper
505 - added beginning version of generic RecordFetch<> template
506 - set default of Barry::Init() to false (no data dump mode)
507 - added examples/ directory, with first addcontact.cc example
508 2006/12/07

578 - added stdint.h to parser.h for uint32_t. Thanks Ron Gage for
579 the bug report
580 2006/09/08
581 - large refactoring of the packet parsing and building code,
582 splitting the code into 3 groups:
583 - record: handles record specific parsing and building...
584 this is mostly subfields with CommonField structs
585 as their headers, but sometimes has a specific
586 header of its own, in the case of email
587 Note: email's header is as yet undecoded.
588 Record does not know the details of the packet
589 formats, only the formats of its own record data.
590 - packet: handles building of complete command packets
591 and handles parsing of commonly used header values,
592 providing an API for it... packet does not know
593 the record format details, but does know the
594 details of each Database Operation (protocol.h)
595 packet format.
596 So far, it seems that there is a real separation
597 of operation formats and record formats, with the
598 record formats being the same even with different
599 database operation codes (GET_RECORDS /
600 OLD_GET_RECORDS), which was not confirmed before.
601 See the header size of the email record after
602 refactoring.
603 - controller: handles device state, and the management of
604 sockets, commands, and checking for response values.
605 The Controller object does not know the format
606 of either the record or the packet it is sending,
607 but does know the protocol handshake logic used
608 to talk to the device.
609 - implemented SetRecord (SET_RECORD_BY_INDEX)... syncing, here
610 we come!
611 - spelling correction in opensync-plugin/AUTHORS
612 2006/09/01
613 - added sample hotplug scripts
614 - added .cvsignore files for doxygen and opensync directories
615 - added src/endian.h... still need to add configure support to
616 handle non-little-endian machines
617 - added exception handler in opensync plugin commit_change()
618 - removed the device reset code in probe.cc, as resetting a device
619 can renumber the devices in /proc on kernel 2.4.x,
620 and cause a failure to reach the device...
621 FIXME - this should be changed someday to reset if probing
622 fails, and restart the probe on reset, as sometimes
623 the blackberry devices respond differently when not reset
624 Ideally, the probe protocol should be properly reverse
625 engineered.
626 - added support for retrieving record state table, which is needed
627 for smarter syncing
628 - added support for retrieving, deleting, and clearing the dirty
629 flags of individual blackberry device records
630 - added endian macros throughout the code
631 2006/07/13
632 - added opensync-plugin to root Makefile's clean

636 - removed slow sync functions for now
637 2006/07/07
638 - added quick "install" makefile target, to src/install by default
639 - added static library target... this is temporary until autoconf
640 stuff is added properly... needed for the opensync plugin
641 - documented in comments that Barry::BError is intended to be
642 the base classes for all exceptions
643 - added first round of implementation of an opensync plugin, based
644 on the example plugin code from the opensync sources
645 2006/06/22
646 - added to Contact record class:
647 - Clear()
648 - ReadLdif() to load and parse LDAP data
649 - added fragmented send support to Socket class
650 - added Probe::FindActive() to make client programs more streamlined
651 - fixed hex/decimal printing of record counts in btool

655 2006/06/16
656 - added parsing of service book fields:
657 - old and new name

659 - content ID (CID)
660 - old and new description
661 - DSID
662 - bes domain / domain
663 - date change in legal.txt
664 - added initial parsing of ServiceBook field 0x09, and calling it
665 ServiceBookConfig for now, for lack of a better name
666 - added parsing for ServiceBook field 0x02 on 72xx Blackberries...
667 seems to be a name or description, but doesn't appear
668 in the device's own GUI... called "Hidden Name" for now
669 2006/06/09
670 - added ServiceBook record class and parser code, based on some
671 of Ron Gage's reverse engineering... code is by Chris Frey
672 - added AUTHORS file
673 - fixed the libusb set_configuration/claim_interface order
674 bug in controller.{h,cc}... already fixed in probe,
675 but not controller. Thanks Ron Gage for finding this.
676 2006/05/25

724 - added return_code field to DBAccess struct, for error checking
725 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
726 throw exception in controller.cc
727 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
728 contact data to the device, it may be important to write
729 group link items last, since they reference other contacts...
730 This needs to be tested, and if not required, removed.
731 - added GROUP_FLAG field code to Contact parser class
732 - fixed offset bug in Contact and Calendar Build() functions
733 - fixed name bug in Contact::Build(), now output only with data

749 - added boost::serialization to build
750 - minor change in usbwrap.cc to display error codes in decimal
751 - added SizePacket special case code to Socket::Send()... this is

776 02a2a3cc?hl=en#5714701b02a2a3cc
777 - changed headers so that any low level protocol-specific sizes and
778 structs are completely hidden in the library...
779 this adds library-only header: protostructs.h
781 Release: version 0.0.1 - 2005/11/25

803 2005/11/19
804 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
805 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
806 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
807 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
808 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
809 Observed maximum blank count: 1
810 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
811 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
812 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
813 seem to need more time...)
814 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
815 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
816 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
817 with Python, if used(?)
818 - added Message class for Email records
819 - removed the "Get*" database functions and replaced with
820 general LoadDatabase() call, which loads any database

837 a public API function
838 - moved Controller test code to btool.cc and made tool more
839 generically useful... can now download any DB by name on
840 the command line
841 - added mode checks to Controller
842 - added -t and -d command line options to btool
843 - added base64 routines from John Walker / Fourmilab and Citadel/UX

849 - increased USB default timeout to 2 seconds
850 - fixed formatting bug in Data operator<< output

852 confusing param/simple split... param is now the tableCmd
853 from the Command Table
854 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
855 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
856 the Cassis spec more closely
857 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing
858 - fixed Socket::Close() so on error, socket flags are reset.
859 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
860 destructors
861 2005/11/17
862 - added Doxyfile to the project
863 - tuned Makefile
864 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
865 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
866 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent
867 data transfers.
868 - added Command Table parsing and protocol support
869 Blackberry class, and CommandTable record class
870 - added Database database parsing and protocol support
871 Blackberry class and DatabaseDatabase record class
872 - added Address book retrieval support - dumps data to stdout for now
873 - fixed bug in CopyOnWrite mode in Data class, where could allocate
874 less buffer than data copied
875 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
876 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
877 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
878 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
879 data
880 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
881 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
882 saved
883 - implemented socket::Close()
884 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0
885 - added Socket::NextRecord() for multiple record data transfers

887 2005/11/11
888 - added .cvsignore files to project
889 - added README notes to document the source architecture
890 - added dbsetup data script, which shows how to get into database
891 mode, using the RIM Desktop mode, and open a socket
892 - added blackberry.{h,cc} class
893 - added command line parameters to bbtool.cc
894 -l = list only
895 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
896 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
897 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
898 results
899 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
900 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
901 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
902 - regular debug output
903 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
904 syslog someday, and never turned off)
905 - raw data dump output
906 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
907 numbers into english (limited success)
908 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
909 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
910 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
911 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
912 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
913 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
914 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
915 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
916 for socket 0 operations.
917 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
918 MAKE_PACKET()
919 COMMAND()
920 IS_COMMAND()
921 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
922 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
923 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
924 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
925 2005/10/20
926 - syncberry tree started
