2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 2007/06/29
4 - applied email MessageRecord patch from Brian Edginton (thanks!)
5 - updated Message::Dump() to output more valid mbox data...
6 the goal is to be able to do:
7 btool -d "Messages" > email.mbox
8 mutt -f email.mbox
9 2007/06/28
10 - minor adjustment to ctags building in buildgen.sh
11 - applied patch from Brian Edginton for better boost detection
12 in configure.ac
13 - added boost usage message to btool -h output
14 2007/06/21
15 - more porting of OpenSync module to 0.30
16 - added ctags build for opensync source tree to buildgen.sh
17 2007/06/14
18 - changed PKG_CONFIG_PATH setting in rpm script, so that systems
19 like SuSE that have an extensive PKG_CONFIG_PATH
20 in general use will not break on build
21 - added PKG_CONFIG_PATH to debian script too, just in case :-)
22 - added debian/changelog to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
23 - added comment to rpm/barry.spec regarding SuSE RPM builds
24 2007/06/08
25 - applied patch from Niels de Vos fixing debian package build
26 dependency
27 - applied Brian Edginton's Saved Email Messages patch
28 - updated r_saved_messages.cc comment to match header
29 - added GetRecType()/GetUniqueId() to r_saved_messages.h, since
30 SetIds() is already there
31 - removed Address version of operator<<() from message related headers
32 and moved into record.h
33 - added std::hex to message related dumps, and changed output to
34 be more mbox-like
35 - updated doc/CodingStyle.txt to cover switch() statements
36 - opensync compiles again, with 0.30! (not functional yet)
37 - moving closer to more modular and reusable plugin functions
38 - updated release checklist for opensync version number
39 2007/06/07
40 - added doc/CodingStyle.txt... preliminary version

42 - applied Brian Edginton's PIN message patch
43 - changes to PIN message patch:
44 - fixed missing backslash in src/Makefile.am
45 - fixed tab alignment throughout
46 - removed typedef from Address struct
47 - added clear() to Address... might as well, if it it is
48 going to be a standalone type
49 - fixed missing comma in PINMessageFieldLinks table
50 - changed MessageRecordId in PINMessage to load from a new
51 uint32_t field in CommonField, instead of piggy
52 backing on a field for other use
53 - did some testing and found that PINMessage's MessageRecordId
54 is the same as the RecordId given through the SetIds()
55 API... but these Id's are duplicated in the protocol...
56 RecordId is stored in the protocol header, while
57 MessageRecordId is stored in the record it self as
58 a common field... added RecType and RecordId to
59 PIN Message so that we store both of these
60 - updated AUTHORS

93 - fixed bug in Debian packaging that put util commands in
94 /bin and /sbin instead of /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
95 - commited byteswap.h replacement code from gm2net
96 - backup gui:

113 - updated udev/10-blackberry.rules.Debian for Debian Etch
114 - updated debian/rules to use new udev rules file
115 - removed debian/postinst, as stable versions of Debian now
116 have a recent udev, and don't need the special handling
117 - updated Debian build scripts to build separate packages:
118 libbarry
119 libbarry-dev
120 barry-util
121 barrybackup-gui
122 - added menu support to Debian barrybackup-gui package
123 - made the buttons bigger in the backup GUI, as they were too
124 small on Debian Etch
125 - opensync plugin:
126 - more progress in porting to opensync 0.30, heavily
127 based on the example plugin in the opensync
128 svn tree... this is a work in progress, and so far

130 2007/05/04
131 - opensync plugin:
132 - partial porting to opensync 0.30 (in progress!)
133 - fixed bug in sync_done where it reported context error
134 and then success afterward

156 - opensync plugin:
157 - fixed size check bugs (strlen() == 0 when empty)
158 - finished refactoring calendar conversion routines
159 - started timezone parsing, but this may go away
160 if we use opensync 0.30's time functions and
161 xml data format...
162 - added development note to README
163 2007/04/29
164 - updated README and opensync-plugin/README with more current
165 build instructions
166 - opensync plugin:
167 - refactored some calendar conversion routines
168 - added Barry->vCalendar conversion for recurring appointments
169 2007/04/27
170 - opensync module:
171 - removed some unneeded trace logs
172 - fixed VEventConverter constructor bug, with uninitialized
173 m_Data pointer
174 - eased up the requirement that every calendar event
175 must have a summary... defaults to "<blank subject>"
176 if empty
177 - added more VCALENDAR fields to match Barry::Calendar record
178 - fixed case sensitive compares in vformat.c
179 2007/04/26
180 - opensync module work:
181 - added id map class to map string uid's from OpenSync to
182 numeric ID's from the Blackberry
183 - fixed bug in CommitChange() where it was still using
184 a hard coded calendar record state table
185 - added lots of logging throughout
186 - fixed bug where newly added records didn't use the
187 change object's uid, but created a new ID,
188 causing another sync on the next run
189 i.e. (CommitData_t was missing an argument)
190 - fixed bug where uninitialized notification time was
191 written to the Blackberry
192 - more opensync module work:
193 - refactored the environment class into another subclass
194 called DatabaseSyncState, and moved some stand-
195 alone functions from barry_sync.cc into
196 the environment classes
197 - added a tagged constructor to the trace class
198 - fixed idmap::Load() to clear map before loading
199 2007/04/20
200 - renamed barry-config to barry-sync, the default configuration
201 file for the opensync module... and filled it with
202 a sample configuration

204 on success (opensync module)
205 - added code to clear dirty flags in the device (opensync module)
206 - allowed comments in the config file
207 - added vformat.c from libopensync 0.22, since the vformat
208 routines are not available from the plugin side
209 2007/04/19
210 - updated gui/TODO
211 - added -d switch to bcharge to switch back from 0001 to 0004 mode,
212 changed the auto-detection logic to ignore iProduct and
213 only use idProduct, and updated man page
214 - updated breset to recognize the Pearl in 00004 mode as well
215 - changed src/probe.cc logic to assume that the second endpoint
216 pair is the one needed for database communication, instead
217 of doing a reverse search from the end... newer Pearls
218 in Dual mode seem to have at least 3 or 4 endpoint pairs,
219 and the old search didn't always work
220 - applied sourceforge patch #1696884 from Peter Silva, updating
221 the Debian build for Etch, and including all files in one deb
222 - added Peter Silva to AUTHORS file
223 - uncommented the "make distclean" in debian/rules, and removed
224 the reliance on /tmp when installing 99-barry-perms.rules
225 - applied bb_task_format.txt patch from Peter Silva
226 - fixed each misspelling of "recurrance" to "recurrence"
227 - tweaked src/probe.cc again for paranoia's sake... start at
228 offset 1 if more than 1 endpoint pair, otherwise start
229 search at 0
230 - split up opensync module into multiple source files, and started
231 using the opensync vformat routines for parsing and building
232 the vevent20 data (experimental)
233 2007/04/04
234 - more incremental work on the opensync plugin, adding ADDED
235 and MODIFIED functionality... (experimental!)
236 2007/03/30
237 - added code to dump extra descriptors during device discovery,
238 if found
239 - bumped opensync version number in configure.ac, and made
240 the configure scripts more consistent with the rest
241 of the project
242 - fixed printf-format size bug in opensync module
243 2007/03/29
244 - applied patch from Niels de Vos, fixing deb udev rules for Pearl
245 - updated AUTHORS
246 - fixed extra space bug in LDIF output (added space when creating
247 FullName, even if there was no last name)
248 - fixed Address Book record parsing in Contact class... the
249 Blackberry database uses field id 0x20 for both the
250 first and last names, and if only a last name exists,
251 the first name will be empty. Fixed parser to handle
252 this special case, without relying on string length.
253 Thanks to Troy Engel for reporting above two LDIF bugs.
254 - added a few more constants to bcharge.cc
255 - renamed opensync's configure.in to configure.ac
256 2007/03/17
257 - fixed bcharge to avoid endless reset loop... oops
258 2007/03/16
259 - reorganized bcharge.cc to make it possible to switch between
260 Pearl modes 0004 and 0001
261 - added flag to BadPassword exception class, to signal whether
262 the library considers the device "out of retries" or not
263 - updated socket.cc for new BadPassword exception
264 - added special case to Controller class destructor to reset the
265 device if being destroyed in a half-open state... this is
266 a temporary fix until we understand how to handle
267 the "already open" message we get when opening the Desktop
268 in some cases
269 - added password prompt dialog to the backup GUI
270 - fixed possible memory leak in GUI's DeviceInterface::Connect()
271 2007/03/08
272 - committed Troy Engel's bbrules_mass_symlinks.patch, fixing
273 udev rules for the Pearl
274 - updated 10-blackberry.rules.Debian to match 10-blackberry.rules's
275 functionality
276 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to generate all required
277 RPM's... Thank you! Notes in the README taken from
278 the sourceforge tracker entry containing the patch.
279 - added libusb lib flags to tools/ and examples/ makefiles,
280 and tweaked configure.ac with a better default,
281 to build cleanly on RHEL 4
282 - modified rpm/barry.spec:
283 - does not create doc-only barry base package anymore
284 - fixed "barry-backup" typo
285 - removed the patch step, as version 0.7 shouldn't need it
286 - added license file to each package
287 - commented out console perms scripts, pending mailing list
288 discussion
289 - updated AUTHORS
290 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to fix RHEL4 compile issues
291 - fixed 80 column wrapping error in barry.spec, thanks to Troy Engel
292 for the bug report
293 - applied Troy Engel's udev permissions patch for Redhat/Fedora
294 systems, which automatically set the ownership of a
295 newly plugged in device to the currently logged in console
296 user.
297 - added udev/README to document what all those files are for...
298 part of the text comes from the sourceforge comment
299 on the above udev permissions patch from Troy Engel
300 - uncommented the console perms scripts for rpm/barry.spec
301 - added libglademm-2.4 to gui/README's dependency list
302 - made usbwrap.* calls more threadsafe
303 - added Usb::Timeout exception for timeout errors
304 - added preliminary UsbSerData support to library for GPRS modem
305 functionality, using Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry's serdata.c
306 as a guide
307 - added overloaded Socket::Send() for sending without receiving
308 - added preliminary pppob command line tool
309 2007/03/02
310 - version bump in:
311 - configure.ac
312 - src/Makefile.am
313 - src/version.cc
314 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
315 - src/Doxyfile
316 - rpm/barry.spec
317 - build system tweaks for opensync-plugin, and added a buildgen.sh
318 for it
319 - added better debug messages in probe.cc and usbwrap.cc's
320 device discovery code
321 - changed error handling for null interface->altsetting pointers
322 when doing device discovery in usbwrap.cc. Seems that
323 some devices report a higher number in bNumInterfaces
324 than are really available... in this case, let's
325 just ignore the missing data and assume success
326 - applied udev script patch #1663986 from Troy Engel
327 - applied barry-bcharge.spec patch #1672178 from Troy Engel
328 - ReleaseChecklist update
329 - added rpm/README based on Troy Engel's patch notes
330 - updated new barry-bcharge.spec for version 0.7, removing patch
331 dependency
333 Release: version 0.6 - 2007/02/28
334 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
335 2007/02/28
336 - fixed size checks for device database records larger than 64K
337 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
338 - added initial release maintainer scripts
339 - fixed odd backup success message in GUI when doing a backup with
340 no databases selected in configuration
341 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
342 - added udev permissions file patch from Michael Brown
343 - added Michael Brown to AUTHORS
344 - updated README, gui/README, and doc/USB-capture.txt
345 - added -o command line switch to bcharge.cc, and updated man page
346 2007/02/23
347 - changed library behaviour so it only turns on libusb debug output
348 if in data dump mode. In btool, -v controls this output.
349 - minor stream formatting fix in btool
350 - added OpenSSL dependency to build for password hash support
351 - made debug dout() output conditional on Init() flag... In btool,
352 -v now controls this as well
353 - reverse engineered more of the initial probe packets, and
354 implemented probing in struct based code... changes include:
355 - added support for "attribute fetch" packets, used at
356 the beginning of USB conversations
357 - defined object/attribute id codes for the PIN number
358 - made Protocol::SocketCommand more robust, and implemented
359 its sequence number behaviour
360 - moved ModeSelectCommand into SocketCommand, as it is a
361 socket 0 level command
362 - added initial protocol struct: PasswordChallenge
363 - renamed Barry::Packet to DBPacket
364 - added ZeroPacket for socket 0 packet creation and analysis
365 - Barry::Packet is now the base class for the above
366 - implemented socket 0 behaviour in socket.cc
367 - changed return values for Send/Receive/Packet/NextRecord
368 members in the Socket class from bool to void, as they
369 don't generate errors themselves, but only can
370 have an error if Usb::Device throws an exception.
371 Cleaned up all code that called these members as well.
372 - removed "last status" from Socket class as it was unused
373 - updated probe.cc to use new socket 0 implementation
374 - removed two of the hard coded packet handshakes in favour
375 of socket 0 packets
376 - updated controller.cc:
377 - uses new socket 0 implementation
378 - removed "flag" hack when opening sockets and
379 selecting modes, as it should use the
380 socket 0 sequence number
381 - added initial, incomplete prototype header for the C API
382 - updated some .cvsignore files
383 - updated TODO
384 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt, adding rpm spec file
385 - added the following to ZeroPacket:
386 - ChallengeSeed()
387 - RemainingTries()
388 - SocketResponse()
389 - SocketSqeuence()
390 - moved Command() to base Packet class
391 - added comments to protostructs.h and size constants for the
392 new PasswordChallenge struct
393 - added password support to Socket and Controller classes
394 Thanks to Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry for the openssl
395 password hashing logic.
396 - updated btool to use new password support, and updated its man page
397 2007/02/22
398 - updated Doxygen input files and version, and added to ReleaseChecklist
399 - fixed btool PIN output for LDIF mode, now commented in output
400 - major LDIF overhaul:
401 - split LDIF specific code out of the record class and
402 into its own
403 - fixed "full name" behaviour that added an extra space
404 in dn attributes, as reported by Troy Engel
405 - added support for mapping of LDIF attributes to Barry
406 contact field names
407 - fixed base64 handling, so attributes are only so encoded
408 if necessary
409 - fixed base64 attribute reading inconsistency... some
410 notes fields were missed in old version if not
411 encoded
412 - added support for specifying alternate attribute for
413 constructing a FQDN, instead of just "cn"
414 - updated btool and upldif to use new features
415 - large update to btool manpage
416 - fixed initialization bug in Contact constructor (missed RecType)
417 2007/02/15
418 - added ktrans.cc to make reading of kernel usbfs_snoop logs easier
419 - removed commented code from translate.cc
420 - added Pearl handshake support to bcharge.cc, which resets the
421 Pearl so that the vendor specific 0xFF class exists.
422 This should allow use of btool on the Pearl.
423 - added Data::AppendHexString to data.cc
424 - added better probing support for the Pearl, so it detects the
425 Product ID 0x0004 mode, and does a search for class 0xFF
426 instead of hardcoding it.
427 2007/02/10
428 - applied README patch from Ian Darwin
429 - minor tweaks to README
430 - added missing errno.h header in src/usbwrap.cc for AMD64
431 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting the bug.
432 - tightened up size checks in Data::ReleaseBuffer()
433 - stable libusb *does* return the actual length of the USB packet...
434 fixed this in usbwrap.cc to set the actual size of read data,
435 and removed the size hacks elsewhere in the code:
436 probe.cc, protocol.cc, socket.cc, usbwrap.cc
437 2007/02/09
438 - added proper return codes for error conditions in btool.cc
439 - clarified some stream output code in the library, for hex/dec numbers
440 - removed old, non-working connect.cc test program
441 - added iomanip to debug.h
442 - changed usbwrap to call libusb again if EINTR and EAGAIN
443 This should fix one of the OpenBSD issues
444 2007/02/04
445 - updated AUTHORS
446 - fixed bug in barrybackup GUI that didn't create the target path
447 if the user didn't do Edit | Config first.
448 Thanks to Ian Darwin for reporting the bug.
449 - applied gui/src/ConfigFile.cc header fix patch for OpenBSD
450 from Ian Darwin
451 2007/02/03
452 - added initial btool.1 man page from Ian Darwin
453 - updated man/Makefile.am for new btool.1
454 - updated AUTHORS
455 - applied btool -h help clarification patch from Ian Darwin
456 2007/02/02
457 - reworked exception hierarchy, so applications can handle all
458 Barry related exceptions, including Usb errors, with
459 one base class: Barry::Error
460 - fixed all the ripple changes this caused throughout the codebase
461 - added BadPassword exception
462 2007/02/01
463 - version bump in:
464 - configure.ac
465 - src/Makefile.am
466 - src/version.cc
467 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
468 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
469 - added usb-level breset.cc command line tool
470 - fixed bug in gui/src/tarfile.* for systems where
471 sizeof(int) != sizeof(void*)
472 - TarFile class now uses a plugin style for the compression
473 operations, to allow for threadsafe versions if needed
474 in the future.
475 - also fixed leaked file handle bug in open_compressed()
476 - Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this for 64bit systems
477 - minor signed comparison fixes in the library
478 - added better protocol data dumping code in probe.cc
479 - added Usb::Device::BulkDrain(), to prevent Barry from hanging
480 due to pending reads
482 Release: version 0.5 - 2007/01/26
483 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
484 2007/01/26
485 - added missing errno.h header to gui/src/util.cc
486 - lots more endian fixes after testing on iMac
487 - iostream output size fixes
488 - added option to btool to reset the device via software
489 - beefed up exception handling in barrybackup
490 - checked in opensync work-in-progress: trace logging, pointer bugfix
491 this is still experimental
492 - added aboutdialog.* files from gtkmm24 2.10.6, so we have a dialog
493 class for systems running older versions of gtkmm, like
494 Debian stable
495 - uncommented the about box menu handler
496 - added "cleanall" option to root buildgen.sh script
497 - update ReleaseChecklist.txt
498 - removed CVS auto-history strings from aboutdialog.*
499 2007/01/25
500 - found a link between the unknown field in tagged protocol headers
501 and the unknown field in RecordStateTable entries. This
502 field matters when uploading certain databases, such as
503 Browser Options. It is unknown what this field really
504 means, but we're calling it RecType. Updated the API
505 to use this in all parser objects and builder objects
506 and record objects that use it.
507 - changed some uses of uint64_t to uint32_t, in Contact and
508 Calendar record objects... unique IDs only seem to be
509 32 bits
510 - added new static function to record classes: GetDefaultRecType()
511 This returns the default rectype that should work
512 for that record. Ideally this should be retrieved from
513 the device, but in the case where a database has no
514 records, this info would be good to know.
515 - updated convenience template function Controller::AddRecordByType()
516 to use GetDefaultRecType()
517 - documented the recurrence data and how to use it in Calendar objects
518 - added data debug output for incoming USB packets in the
519 socket class... when we ported to the stable libusb
520 we lost some of the verbose output... this should get it
521 back. (In the official release, you need to uncomment
522 ddout() in debug.h for the full blast of debug output).
523 - backup GUI updates:
524 - changed error_done signal into a pure error signal,
525 and changed the logic so the restore continues
526 even if there was a protocol error on one database
527 - changed status bar messages to show what's happening
528 i.e. Backup or Restore
529 - default to not restore the "Handheld Agent" database as
530 it appears to be read-only on the device
531 - added temporary Restore & Backup mode for debugging
532 - added extra hyphen to backup files to show date/time better
533 - updated GUI to save and restore the new RecType field
534 supported now by the library
535 2007/01/21
536 - added future considerations to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
537 - applied big endian patch from Jonathan Hudson
538 - changes to patch:
539 - removed endian.h include from barry.h, since applications
540 using the library should not care about endianness
541 - hard coded the path to config.h in endian.h
542 so that endian.h never makes it into the final
543 install
544 - removed DEFAULT_INCLUDES setting from src/Makefile.am
545 for the same reason
546 - removed config.h dependency in btool.cc and used library
547 Version call instead
548 - added big/little endian text to the Barry::Version call
549 - updated AUTHORS
550 - fixed install location of bcharge when building with ./configure;
551 now goes to sbin/ for both source compile and binary packages
552 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this bug.
553 2007/01/20
554 - added smarter timeout values to controller, and allowed
555 timeout overrides in the packet, socket, and usbwrap code...
556 extra timeouts are needed for erasing databases for
557 some older devices
558 - added an explicit DataDumpParser class to btool.cc, as the
559 library doesn't always have extreme verbose debugging on...
560 this makes sure anyone can always get raw database packets
561 through btool, for development
562 - added thread callback signals for error finishes and erase_db
563 operations, so the GUI is updated properly
564 - more GUI cleanups (status bar updates, etc)
565 - finished implementation of GUI restore
566 - fixed gtkmm/glibmm exception handling when the exceptions
567 occur in sigc signal handlers... in that case,
568 exceptions need to be handled with
569 Glib::add_exception_handler()
570 - added filename-only reading support to TarFile class
571 - added pending gui/TODO items
572 2007/01/19
573 - backup GUI now properly shows progress
574 - the buttons become insensitive when backup is busy
575 - refactored directory check code, and added mkdir check
576 when to the backup setup (so the directory exists
577 when we try to write to it)
578 - updated code to use Barry::Data in new namespace
579 2007/01/18
580 - moved Data class into Barry namespace
581 2007/01/13
582 - updated copyright dates for the new year
583 - clarified exception message in controller.cc
584 - fixed pointer initialization bug in controller.cc
585 - added documentation comments to parser.h and builder.h
586 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt
587 - updated README
588 - changed Barry library configure scripts to make better
589 use of pkg-config for autodetecting dependencies
590 - added initial Barry Backup GUI (gui/ directory), capable of making
591 backups only at this point
592 2007/01/11
593 - added doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
594 - added version API, returning version number and string
595 - added Troy Engel to AUTHORS
596 - added special case to bcharge.cc for the Blackberry Pearl,
597 which doesn't reset itself after the charge handshake
598 Thanks to Troy Engel for testing.
599 2007/01/05
600 - added pkg-config support for the library (libbarry-0.pc.in)
601 - fixed compile error on g++ 3.3 systems (missing stdint.h
602 in probe.h)
603 - fixed protocol hang at end of Controller operation... in
604 controller destructor, it was deleting the USB interface
605 before closing the socket at the BlackBerry level, thereby
606 leaving the device in Desktop mode
607 2007/01/04
608 - support the newer udev packages on Ubuntu, which need slightly
609 different rules
610 - modified bcharge.cc to search for Pearl devices too.
611 USB product ID 6
612 - added Pearl product ID to probe code, but likely not functional
613 yet until we find someone able to get a USB capture for us
614 2006/12/29
615 - version bump in configure.ac and src/Makefile.am
617 Release: version 0.4 - 2006/12/29
618 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
619 2006/12/29
620 - added bcharge.cc to the tools/ directory (whoohoo!)
621 - added initial release version of rpm/barry.spec (aka bcharge.spec)
622 This begins the barry binary release, currently only
623 including the bcharge utility, but possibly more in
624 the future. Future binary packages will likely include
625 libbarry, libbarry-devel, etc, which barry will then
626 depend on.
627 - added udev rule script for BlackBerry devices
628 - added man/ directory and bcharge.1 manpage
629 - added debian/ directory for building deb packages, with initial
630 package scripts
631 - added rpm/make-rpm-tarball.sh for building RPMs
632 - split out technical docs into separate libbarry.docs file for
633 a future Debian install
634 - added more cleaning to buildgen.sh
635 - added new udev rule file for Debian stable
636 - hardcoded g++ to 3.3 in debian/rules as I have multiple versions
637 on my system and need to compile releases with stable
638 2006/12/21
639 - ported Barry to use the stable branch of libusb
640 NOTE: no longer depends on the devel libusb tarball!
641 Just use your distro's libusb packages.
642 - fixed more endian issues
643 - minor update to TODO
644 2006/12/15
645 - moved Exceptions, Hacking, and VersionNotes to doc/

657 - moved platform specific code out of time.h and into time.cc
658 - moved btool.cc, translate.cc, and upldif.cc out of src/ and
659 into their own tools/ subdirectory
660 - added NEWS file to make autotools happy
661 - added a "clean" option to the buildgen.sh script... maintainer's
662 use only
663 - reworked autoconf and automake files, to support
664 barry as a library, to move the programs into their
665 own tools directory, and support a proper installation
666 - fixed headers in parser.h, btool.cc, and upldif.cc to work
667 properly when installed standalone
668 - added tools/Makefile.plain for testing compiling against
669 installed barry library
670 - added commentary on version number system
671 - removed Makefile.conf and Makefile.orig, as new autoconf
672 system supercedes it
673 - added support for boost serialization library in autoconf build
674 - added library version number to autoconf build
675 - changed boost flag to __BARRY_BOOST_MODE__ to avoid collisions
676 - removed debug.h dependency from btool.cc
677 - removed libusb check in favour of specific --with-libusb
678 option... may need to revisit this later
679 - quick installation update in README
680 2006/12/01
681 - fixed some missed endian conversions in record.cc and added
682 some size checks
683 - fixed endian issues in time.h

685 the time zone table for better defaults in North America
686 - added btool and upldif to the make install sequence
687 - added support for Calendar recurrence data
688 - small doc/TimeZones.txt update
689 2006/11/24

691 - added GetTimeZone() to convert device time zone codes to useful data
693 Release: version 0.0.3 - 2006/11/24
694 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
695 2006/11/23
696 - added return code check to Controller::SaveDatabase()
697 - fixed Data() class constructor, so it doesn't auto-convert
698 from any int
699 - fixed size checking bug in Packet::ReturnCode() that caused
700 uploading to device to fail
701 2006/11/10

709 specified multiple times to work with multiple records
710 at once
711 - added Calendar sync code to the opensync module (not complete)
712 - cleaned up exception handling in the opensync module, making
713 more use of the base exception to make sure no
714 exceptions leak into the C library code
716 Release: version 0.0.2 - 2006/10/12
717 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
718 2006/10/12

720 - minor updates to documentation to prepare for release
721 2006/09/29
722 - added stdint.h to parser.h for uint32_t. Thanks Ron Gage for
723 the bug report
724 2006/09/08
725 - large refactoring of the packet parsing and building code,
726 splitting the code into 3 groups:
727 - record: handles record specific parsing and building...
728 this is mostly subfields with CommonField structs
729 as their headers, but sometimes has a specific
730 header of its own, in the case of email
731 Note: email's header is as yet undecoded.
732 Record does not know the details of the packet
733 formats, only the formats of its own record data.
734 - packet: handles building of complete command packets
735 and handles parsing of commonly used header values,
736 providing an API for it... packet does not know
737 the record format details, but does know the
738 details of each Database Operation (protocol.h)
739 packet format.
740 So far, it seems that there is a real separation
741 of operation formats and record formats, with the
742 record formats being the same even with different
743 database operation codes (GET_RECORDS /
744 OLD_GET_RECORDS), which was not confirmed before.
745 See the header size of the email record after
746 refactoring.
747 - controller: handles device state, and the management of
748 sockets, commands, and checking for response values.
749 The Controller object does not know the format
750 of either the record or the packet it is sending,
751 but does know the protocol handshake logic used
752 to talk to the device.
753 - implemented SetRecord (SET_RECORD_BY_INDEX)... syncing, here
754 we come!
755 - spelling correction in opensync-plugin/AUTHORS
756 2006/09/01
757 - added sample hotplug scripts
758 - added .cvsignore files for doxygen and opensync directories
759 - added src/endian.h... still need to add configure support to
760 handle non-little-endian machines
761 - added exception handler in opensync plugin commit_change()
762 - removed the device reset code in probe.cc, as resetting a device
763 can renumber the devices in /proc on kernel 2.4.x,
764 and cause a failure to reach the device...
765 FIXME - this should be changed someday to reset if probing
766 fails, and restart the probe on reset, as sometimes
767 the blackberry devices respond differently when not reset
768 Ideally, the probe protocol should be properly reverse
769 engineered.
770 - added support for retrieving record state table, which is needed
771 for smarter syncing
772 - added support for retrieving, deleting, and clearing the dirty
773 flags of individual blackberry device records
774 - added endian macros throughout the code
775 2006/07/13
776 - added opensync-plugin to root Makefile's clean
777 - updated time conversion calls to match opensync's latest SVN
778 - added opensync_change_set_changetype() (only add for now,
779 for development)
780 - removed slow sync functions for now
781 2006/07/07
782 - added quick "install" makefile target, to src/install by default
783 - added static library target... this is temporary until autoconf
784 stuff is added properly... needed for the opensync plugin
785 - documented in comments that Barry::BError is intended to be
786 the base classes for all exceptions
787 - added first round of implementation of an opensync plugin, based
788 on the example plugin code from the opensync sources
789 2006/06/22
790 - added to Contact record class:
791 - Clear()
792 - ReadLdif() to load and parse LDAP data
793 - added fragmented send support to Socket class
794 - added Probe::FindActive() to make client programs more streamlined
795 - fixed hex/decimal printing of record counts in btool
796 - added upldif.cc, a utility to take ldapsearch output on stdin
797 and upload it to a blackberry
798 - updated src/.cvsignore
799 2006/06/16
800 - added parsing of service book fields:
801 - old and new name
802 - old and new unique ID (UID)
803 - content ID (CID)
804 - old and new description
805 - DSID
806 - bes domain / domain
807 - date change in legal.txt
808 - added initial parsing of ServiceBook field 0x09, and calling it
809 ServiceBookConfig for now, for lack of a better name
810 - added parsing for ServiceBook field 0x02 on 72xx Blackberries...
811 seems to be a name or description, but doesn't appear
812 in the device's own GUI... called "Hidden Name" for now
813 2006/06/09
814 - added ServiceBook record class and parser code, based on some
815 of Ron Gage's reverse engineering... code is by Chris Frey
816 - added AUTHORS file
817 - fixed the libusb set_configuration/claim_interface order
818 bug in controller.{h,cc}... already fixed in probe,
819 but not controller. Thanks Ron Gage for finding this.
820 2006/05/25
821 - renamed Changelog to ChangeLog in preparation for autoconf
822 - renamed Todo to TODO in preparation for autoconf
823 2006/05/18

832 support of the template Controller functions
833 - fleshed out DatabaseDatabase::GetDBNumber() and GetDBName(),
834 returning errors properly
835 - documented sample btool.cc code better, and added example
836 of Controller template member usage
837 2006/03/29
838 - copyright dates updated for 2006
839 2006/01/05
840 - backed out update to latest libusb DEVEL tree, since it is buggy.
841 Stick with libusb 2005/11/26
842 2005/12/30
843 - added clean target to convenience Makefile
844 - added Boost to list of dependencies in README
845 - fixed minor compile warnings in base64.cc
846 - fixed new USB discovery code, and changed endpoint usage to use
847 it, instead of the READ_ENDPOINT and WRITE_ENDPOINT
848 constants... constants are now removed
849 common.h, controller.cc, probe.cc, probe.h, usbwrap.cc
850 - added ClearHalt() to Usb::Device (usbwrap.cc)
851 - updated usbwrap.h to match latest libusb CVS devel tree

865 2005/12/23
866 - fixed packing bug in new upload header struct
867 - renamed CommonField union from data to u to be consistent
868 - added return_code field to DBAccess struct, for error checking
869 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
870 throw exception in controller.cc
871 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
872 contact data to the device, it may be important to write
873 group link items last, since they reference other contacts...
874 This needs to be tested, and if not required, removed.
875 - added GROUP_FLAG field code to Contact parser class
876 - fixed offset bug in Contact and Calendar Build() functions
877 - fixed name bug in Contact::Build(), now output only with data

879 class, and "all day event" flag support
880 2005/12/22
881 - added autoconf to Todo list
882 - refactored the protocol structures so that record structs can
883 be reused for upload and download
884 - with new protostructs, more header control is handled by
885 controller.cc instead of record.cc parsers and builders
886 - parser code now accepts an offset, to govern start of record data
887 - changed Data sizes from int to size_t and removed casts
888 - removed unneeded Parser::GetHeaderSize() (new protostructs make
889 this obsolete)
890 - added Calendar::Build() for calendar uploads
891 2005/12/10
892 - added s11n-boost.h serialization templates for boost::serialization
893 - added boost::serialization to build
894 - minor change in usbwrap.cc to display error codes in decimal
895 - added SizePacket special case code to Socket::Send()... this is
896 required when uploaded packet size is a multiple of 0x40,
897 a special 3 byte size packet is sent
898 - moved some record class variables to public: so they can be
899 properly serialized
900 - fixed variable name but in RecordBuilder template
901 - added -f switch to btool, for saving and loading of record data
902 - added -s switch to btool, for uploading saved data back to handheld

910 - Contact record.h class now saves unknown Group Link field,
911 for later saving
912 2005/12/07
913 - added -fno-strict-aliasing to compiler flags so gcc-4.0.x won't
914 optimize away protocol struct casts
915 see:
916 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25235

920 02a2a3cc?hl=en#5714701b02a2a3cc
921 - changed headers so that any low level protocol-specific sizes and
922 structs are completely hidden in the library...
923 this adds library-only header: protostructs.h
925 Release: version 0.0.1 - 2005/11/25
926 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
927 2005/11/25

945 - added Contact::GetPostalAddress()
946 - added README documentation in preparation for future release
947 2005/11/19
948 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
949 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
950 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
951 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
952 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
953 Observed maximum blank count: 1
954 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
955 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
956 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
957 seem to need more time...)
958 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
959 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
960 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
961 with Python, if used(?)
962 - added Message class for Email records
963 - removed the "Get*" database functions and replaced with
964 general LoadDatabase() call, which loads any database
965 available, and parses it with a Parser object
966 - added GetDBID() for searching for database numbers via name
967 - added test code to retrieve and display all email
968 - cleaned up comments
969 - renamed blackberry.{h,cc} to controller.{h,cc}
970 - renamed bbtool.cc to btool.cc
971 - added Makefile.conf
972 - added copyright notices to source files
973 - added COPYING file with GPL
974 - put parser in Barry namespace, and added auto_ptr-like mode for
975 store object pointers
976 - added doxygen docs
977 - added header comments to convo.awk script
978 - removed Test() function in Controller object, and made class
979 better suited to its general API purpose
980 - changed OpenMode() so it loads command table and DBDB... it is now
981 a public API function
982 - moved Controller test code to btool.cc and made tool more
983 generically useful... can now download any DB by name on
984 the command line
985 - added mode checks to Controller
986 - added -t and -d command line options to btool
987 - added base64 routines from John Walker / Fourmilab and Citadel/UX
988 - converted base64 routines into an API, instead of hardcoded
989 file based
990 2005/11/18
991 - changed project name to Barry, including namespaces
992 - renamed sbcommon.* to common.*
993 - increased USB default timeout to 2 seconds
994 - fixed formatting bug in Data operator<< output
995 - cleaned up the protocol packet structs, getting rid of the
996 confusing param/simple split... param is now the tableCmd
997 from the Command Table
998 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
999 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
1000 the Cassis spec more closely
1001 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing
1002 - fixed Socket::Close() so on error, socket flags are reset.
1003 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
1004 destructors
1005 2005/11/17
1006 - added Doxyfile to the project
1007 - tuned Makefile
1008 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
1009 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
1010 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent
1011 data transfers.
1012 - added Command Table parsing and protocol support
1013 Blackberry class, and CommandTable record class
1014 - added Database database parsing and protocol support
1015 Blackberry class and DatabaseDatabase record class
1016 - added Address book retrieval support - dumps data to stdout for now
1017 - fixed bug in CopyOnWrite mode in Data class, where could allocate
1018 less buffer than data copied
1019 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
1020 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
1021 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
1022 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
1023 data
1024 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
1025 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
1026 saved
1027 - implemented socket::Close()
1028 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0
1029 - added Socket::NextRecord() for multiple record data transfers
1030 - fixed input handling bug in translate.cc
1031 2005/11/11
1032 - added .cvsignore files to project
1033 - added README notes to document the source architecture
1034 - added dbsetup data script, which shows how to get into database
1035 mode, using the RIM Desktop mode, and open a socket
1036 - added blackberry.{h,cc} class
1037 - added command line parameters to bbtool.cc
1038 -l = list only
1039 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
1040 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
1041 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
1042 results
1043 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
1044 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
1045 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
1046 - regular debug output
1047 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
1048 syslog someday, and never turned off)
1049 - raw data dump output
1050 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
1051 numbers into english (limited success)
1052 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
1053 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
1054 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
1055 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
1056 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
1057 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
1058 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
1059 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
1060 for socket 0 operations.
1061 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
1062 MAKE_PACKET()
1063 COMMAND()
1064 IS_COMMAND()
1065 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
1066 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
1067 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
1068 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
1069 2005/10/20
1070 - syncberry tree started
