1 Release: version 0.13 - 2008/04/??
2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 2008/04/29
4 - applied Jason Thomas's ACLOCAL_FLAGS patch to make autoreconf
5 work again... Thanks!
6 - applied Jason Thomas's debian build dependency patch
7 - updated AUTHORS
8 2008/04/26
9 - started documentation overhaul in doc/www, putting the commonly
10 asked questions right on the front page, and making it more
11 goal-oriented, so it is hopefully easier to use
12 2008/04/25
13 - updated NEWS file
14 - fixed error messages in m_desktop.cc that still referred
15 to Controller
16 2008/04/25
17 - major merge of barry-b1-socket-arch-branch into MAIN.
18 The following is the changelog from that branch, which is now MAIN.
20 2008/04/25
21 - added thread-safe logging mechanism
22 - added preliminary IP modem support... requires a recent
23 device... serial mode is not yet supported
24 - merged HEAD changes
25 2008/03/27

30 - merged HEAD changes
31 2008/03/20
32 - fixed bug in probe class, which missed storing the PIN
33 number in ProbeResult
34 - also added ProbeResult constructor
35 - merged changes from visibility branch:
36 - GCC visibility support, limiting what symbols are
37 visible in the shared library, libbarry... this makes
38 a drastic reduction in the symbol table, and should
39 avoid future name clashes with other libraries such
40 as opensync
41 See: http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility

144 See: http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility
146 Release: version 0.12 - 2008/03/21
147 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
148 2008/03/21
149 - changed maintainer script to use CVS export instead of checkout,
150 to avoid the CVS directories
151 - added support for building Debian source packages with proper
152 diff.gz and dsc files
153 - fixed find warning in maintainer/make-rpm.sh
154 - added support for Ubuntu binary packages to the maintainer build
155 scripts
156 2008/03/13
157 - renamed all vformat_ and VFormat symbols in opensync plugin's
158 copy of vformat code, so they don't conflict with the
159 real opensync libraries
160 2008/03/07
161 - updated the install.php web page with Paul Dugas's notes on
162 building RPM's from CVS
163 - fixed problem in tools/Makefile.am where bs11nread was included
164 in build, even if --with-boost was not specified
165 on ./configure command line
166 2008/03/06
167 - changed format of Boost serialization file output from btool,
168 so that the database name is stored as the first line
169 of the file
170 - added tools/bs11nread.cc to read Boost serialization file data
171 written by btool

180 2008/02/28
181 - committed Chris Burgess's update to the roadmap document
182 - applied Paul Dugas's x86-64 build patch, except the
183 tar.bz2/tar.gz change
184 - updated AUTHORS file
185 2008/02/22
186 - fixed configure.ac's --with-boost option, so that without args,
187 it defaults to using --includedir and --libdir settings,
188 instead of hardcoding /usr/include and /usr/lib... this
189 should allow smarter compiling on 64 bit systems
190 - updated RPM spec file to use new --with-boost behaviour
191 - ahem, fixed configure.ac again... don't use --includedir and
192 --libdir, as those are install targets... oops.
193 Don't add path overrides at all if not specified.
194 2008/01/25

201 <recordclass>::GetDBName()
202 - version bump:
203 - configure.ac
204 - src/Makefile.am
205 - src/version.cc
206 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc

210 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
211 - updated TODO
213 Release: version 0.11 - 2007/12/01
214 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
215 2007/12/01
216 - fixed null pointer bug in Probe class (bug #1842407)
217 - added pause to maintainer release script
218 2007/11/30
219 - version bump:
220 - configure.ac
221 - src/Makefile.am
222 - src/version.cc
223 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
224 - src/Doxygen
225 - rpm/barry.spec
226 - debian/changelog
227 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
229 Release: version 0.10 - 2007/11/30
230 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
231 2007/11/30
232 - added support to the usbwrap Match class to limit its
233 search by busname / devname
234 - added support to the Probe class to limit its search for
235 Blackberry devices to a given bus or device name
236 - added command line options to btool for the above Probe
237 bus/device names, and updated the man page
238 - updated the www docs with regard to the new usb_storage
239 behaviour and the new blacklist files... less
240 concern about berry_charge and usb_storage conflicts
241 - added bidentify tool and accompanying man page
242 - fixed bug in rpm maintenance script that used the wrong
243 spec file for opensuse
244 2007/11/29
245 - added better error checking to breset
246 - commented the sleep() for the 8830
247 - added code to handle the race condition where usb_storage
248 claims the device before bcharge arrives on the scene,
249 by asking the kernel to detach the driver from
250 the Mass Storage interface... this change makes it
251 possible to run bcharge, moving from 0006 to 0004
252 to 0001 and back to 0004, all *while* usb_storage
253 is loaded!
254 - changed Probe class behaviour so that it will not throw an
255 exception on Device Busy (-EBUSY) but instead
256 log the error in an internal array and keep going.
257 This makes it possible to use btool and barrybackup
258 with two devices plugged in at the same time.
259 BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY NOTE: this changes initializaion
260 behaviour, but in practice, it should only
261 make applications look more capable, not less.
262 - updated btool to show errors logged by Probe
263 - added message to specify which PIN device is being used by btool
264 - added explanatory comments to udev rules files, about why
265 they are so verbose
266 2007/11/27
267 - added ClearHalt() calls to probe and controller classes, just
268 before any communication happens... the 8830 seems
269 to need this
270 2007/11/23
271 - added usbwrap.cc:GetConfiguration()
272 - added code to check whether the configuration is the one
273 we require, before calling SetConfiguration()... and not
274 to call it if unnecessary. This allows us to run
275 at the same time as usb_storage.
276 Thanks to Martin Owens for not letting this issue go. :-)
277 - added sleep to bcharge, before calling usb_reset()... the
278 Blackberry 8830 behaves like a Pearl device in that
279 it has mass storage support, but behaves like a Classic
280 in that it resets itself... the usb_reset() seems
281 to reset it back to 0006. The sleep allows the device
282 to disappear via its own reset, and let usb_reset()
283 fail naturally on these devices.
284 This is not an ideal solution... mainly for testing.
285 2007/11/09
286 - added modprobe/blacklist-berry_charge as per Simon Ruggier's
287 suggestion. Thanks also to Niels de Vos for a similar
288 suggestion.
289 - fixed udev rules to work on both old and new distros
290 Thanks to Duncan Mak for the bug report.
291 - AUTHORS update
292 - fixed string comparison to use case insensitive compare in
293 opensync plugin
294 - updated Debian package to include modprobe blacklist file
295 - updated rpm spec file to include modprobe blacklist file
296 - split the maintenance scripts into release and test, so
297 that release package builds can be done faster
298 2007/10/26
299 - opensync plugin fixes:
300 - fixed memory leak in vBase::GetAttr()
301 - added support in vformat parser to parse "blocks"
302 and keep track of the hierarchy when
303 parsing an iCalendar, etc.
304 - added support for searching for attributes only
305 inside certain blocks (i.e. find first
306 DTSTART in VEVENT block, not VTIMEZONE block)
307 2007/10/25
308 - fixed bug in Calendar::Clear, missing the Free / Class
309 member variables, leaving them uninitialized
310 - added examples/addcalendar.cc
311 - added more logging to the opensync plugin, logging the
312 ToBarry conversion results
313 - added code to force struct tm.tm_isdst to -1 before calling
314 mktime, in vformat.c
315 - fixed typo in previous fix
316 2007/10/12
317 - renamed ktrans and translate to bktrans and btranslate to avoid
318 file name clashes with libtranslate of Gnome
319 Closes bug #1812410 reported by Troy Engel.
320 - version bump:
321 - configure.ac
322 - src/Makefile.am
323 - src/version.cc
324 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
325 - src/Doxygen
326 - rpm/barry.spec
327 - debian/changelog
328 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
329 - fixed missing default config file in the debian package for
330 the opensync plugin
331 Closes bug #1812224 reported by Ariel (adonatti).
332 - added debian dbg packages for tracing segfaults
333 - modified maintainer scripts so debug packages would reference
334 source code located in /usr/src/barry-0.9, etc.
336 Release: version 0.9 - 2007/10/12
337 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
338 2007/09/29
339 - adjusted autosuspend disabling code in bcharge, based on new
340 information on how kernels 2.6.21 / 2.6.22 work.
341 See bcharge.cc for comments. If device/power/level or
342 device/power/autosuspend exist, charging should now work
343 without recompiling the kernel.
344 - updated website docs with autosuspend info
345 2007/09/27
346 - large update to the doc/www web pages, moving some of the
347 information in README files to html format, so that it
348 is commonly available on the web
349 - added step in maintenance scripts to automatically build the
350 .html files in doc/www when making a tarball release
351 2007/09/22
352 - added libopensync 0.22 version requirement to barry.spec file,
353 but it doesn't seem to work on OpenSuSE 10.2, where it's
354 needed.... hmmmm
355 2007/09/21
356 - updated README to mention new tree build configure options
357 - fixed the configure scripts and makefiles so that when building
358 with custom CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables,
359 it doesn't break the full-tree build mode, when
360 using --enable-gui and/or --enable-opensync-plugin
361 - added config.h.in~ to buildgen.sh clean target
362 - converted Debian build scripts to use cdbs
363 - added opensync plugin binary package for Debian
364 - added "Getting Started" section to web pages, as well as an
365 explanatory document for various system requirements
366 - turned on opensync build in RPM maintainer scripts
367 2007/09/20
368 - added filename to power/state error message in bcharge.cc
369 - adjusted maintainer scripts to automatically adjust barry.spec
370 for opensuse rpm builds
371 2007/09/13
372 - fixed some of the release build scripts and added support for
373 automated opensuse 10.2 builds
374 - fixed build target to i386
375 - changed scripts to add to PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable instead
376 of overwriting it
377 2007/09/07
378 - added website docs to doc/www... these are out of date at the
379 moment, and hopefully by including them here, they
380 will be updated more frequently
381 2007/09/05
382 - applied Simon Ruggier's build system patch that allowed a build
383 of all 3 components from the root directory and fixed the
384 configure scripts to support external build directories
385 - reordered clean commands in the buildgen.sh scripts, and removed
386 the INSTALL files, since they are auto-generated by autoconf
387 - removed extraneous buildgen.sh calls in maintainer scripts
388 - added Simon Ruggier to AUTHORS
389 - added explanatory note to 3 stage test build process in
390 maintainer script
391 2007/08/24
392 - fixed Category handling in the Contact record class, to
393 parse the comma separated string into an array,
394 and back
395 Note: this involves a change to the boost serialization
396 and will affect backward compatibility with
397 old serialization datafiles
398 - added Category to examples/addcontact.cc
399 - added Category support to the opensync plugin
400 2007/08/23
401 - fixed wrong read/write in btool output (oops)
402 - added BadSize exception, and changed CheckSize() function
403 to throw it on error
404 - changed backup GUI to catch BadSize exceptions on initial
405 connect, and try a reset if that error occurs, since
406 that likely means the device didn't shutdown properly
407 - fixed in opensync plugin:
408 - some vcard data contains types codes in capital letters,
409 so added lower case conversion routine
410 - changed the order of address lines, so that address1
411 is the street, address2 is the extended address,
412 and address3 is the PO Box. The Blackberry
413 doesn't seem to have any PO Box field.
414 2007/08/20
415 - added -e endpoint override option to btool
416 - added status message to endpoint override
417 2007/08/18
418 - added configure check for strnlen, and implementation for
419 systems that don't have it, or that have it implemented
420 incorrectly. Went a little paranoid here, since
421 AC_FUNC_STRNLEN doesn't set a define in config.h,
422 so I had to do it manually, and check in case autoconf
423 changes in the future... ugh. See src/strnlen.h for
424 the gory details.
425 - added code in probe.cc to fetch the device's description.
426 The description is now part of the probe results
427 along with the PIN. Updates to protocol.h, adding
428 a new attribute definition.
429 Thanks to Rick Scott for pointing out the code in
430 XmBlackberry where he implemented this first.
431 - fixed header dependency in record-internal.h
432 - updated the "required autoconf" version to 2.61 for root build
433 - moved nested structs out of the record classes that contain them,
434 in order to better support SWIG and Python
435 2007/08/17
436 - changed bcharge to use getopt() for its argument processing
437 - added options -p and -s to bcharge, to adjust usb suspend
438 settings automatically where possible
439 - updated the udev rules to use the new bcharge settings
440 - updated the bcharge man page with the new arguments
441 2007/08/16
442 - cleaned up Usb exception handling, moving libusb error code
443 processing into the Usb::Error exception class.
444 error.cc is now an empty shell
445 - added return codes to the Usb::Error exceptions
446 - removed aboutdialog.{h,cc} from the backup GUI since even
447 Debian stable now has up-to-date gtkmm libraries
448 - added more user friendly error message for the "device busy"
449 case, recommending 'rmmod usb_storage'.
450 2007/08/09
451 - added better error checking to bcharge.cc
452 - version bump:
453 - configure.ac
454 - src/Makefile.am
455 - src/version.cc
456 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc
457 - src/Doxygen
458 - rpm/barry.spec
459 - debian/changelog
460 - opensync-plugin/src/barry_sync.cc
461 - removed usb_set_configuration() check from bcharge.cc, since
462 that may fail under normal operation, in this case
464 Release: version 0.8 - 2007/08/03
465 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
466 2007/08/03
467 - moved Interface implementation to usbwrap.cc file
468 - added dout debugging messages to usbwrap.cc
469 - clarified unhandled packet error message in socket.cc
470 - added temporary workaround in opensync-plugin environment's
471 Reconnect(), for odd message seen on newer Blackberry
472 devices
473 - fixing issues with Brian Edginton's MessageRecord patch (2007/06/29)
474 - fixed missing size check in message oriented ParseHeader()
475 - fixed endian conversion issues (also found one pre-existing
476 endian bug in the process)
477 - moved message timestamp converter code to time.cc
478 - added Barry version number to opensync plugin name
479 - changed maintainer scripts and rpm.spec to use bzip2 instead of gzip
480 - added opensync-plugin to configure script build
481 - added -S option to btool, to list supported parsers and builders
482 - slight change to opensync-plugin/buildgen.sh to cleanup config.h.in~
483 - opensync-plugin/README update
484 - added opensync-plugin/patches for others who may be building and
485 testing the plugin with OpenSync 0.22
486 - added debian package build scripts to maintainer/
487 2007/08/01
488 - added entry to doc/TroubleShooting.txt
489 2007/07/28
490 - added doc/TroubleShooting.txt
491 2007/07/27
492 - opensync plugin:
493 - fixed bug in vcard.cc that was using the FN field
494 for the broken-down name instead of N
495 - added dbId and dbName to DatabaseSyncState
496 - added Reconnect() functionality to BarryEnvironment class
497 and moved connect logic out of barry_sync.cc
498 - changed the batch commit functionality in barry_sync.cc
499 to single-change-commit. Why? Because opensync
500 0.22 groups all batch changes into one group
501 and calls one batch commit function, even if you
502 registered two. Moving to single change commit
503 mode removes a chunk of unneccessary code
504 from the plugin as well, and can in theory
505 ease memory pressure in the library.
506 - added FinishSync() to perform actions needed on successful
507 syncing completion
508 - disconnect on successful sync completion, and reconnect,
509 since the device's dirty flags don't seem to
510 be updated until a disconnect occurs.
511 2007/07/26
512 - added ReadDataArray() to data.h, using an istream instead of
513 requiring a file
514 - added raw data version of BuildField() to record-internal.h
515 This is so that btool doesn't add extra null terminators
516 to unknown data, when restoring with option -s
517 - fixed bugs in r_contact.cc:
518 - fixed bug that caused a LastName/FirstName swap
519 if FirstName was empty and you wrote a contact
520 record into the device.... First/Last Name
521 fields are position sensitive, and the code
522 was missing the empty FirstName case on writing
523 - fixed bug in BuildFields() and Dump() where they
524 were not updated to handle the new field
525 table added for the postal address changes
526 on 2007/07/20, oops
527 - opensync plugin:
528 - changed the plugin config file, so it is possible to
529 turn debug output on/off without recompiling
530 - moved the standalone Map2Uid() function into
531 the DatabaseSyncState class, and changed the
532 code to produce "contact-#" and "calendar-#"
533 UID strings, instead of just numbers
534 - changed default PIN to -1, so that if the user doesn't
535 configure properly, it will fail... this is a
536 safety measure to avoid syncing with different
537 devices and corrupting the cache/idmap...
538 this should be fixed someday, to handle this
539 automatically
540 On second thought... is this right? Perhaps
541 it is better to fail if the PIN is not what
542 is expected, so a user doesn't accidentally
543 sync the wrong device and lose data.
544 Actions to take on new PIN:
545 - force slow_sync, or
546 - fail
547 - incorporated the new VCardConverter code into the
548 main barry_sync.cc plugin code
549 - fixed bug that did not clear the devices dirty flags
550 in the case where a sync only read data from it,
551 and didn't write
552 - changed PIN error message number to hex
553 2007/07/20
554 - minor wording change in backup GUI prompt: "Backup working..." to
555 "Backup in progress..."
556 - renamed Contact class's Title field to JobTitle for clarity
557 - added record function ParseFieldString(), which properly handles
558 strings from the device that have multiple null terminators,
559 and changed the record parsing code to use this new function
560 - moved FullName() function from ldif.cc to r_contact.cc since it
561 is generally useful in areas outside of LDIF processing
562 - refactored postal addresses in the Contact record class into
563 a new class called PostalAddress
564 - renamed Address class in record.h to EmailAddress
565 - moved Contact::GetPostalAddress() to record.cc as part of the
566 new PostalAddress class and renamed it
567 PostalAddress::GetLabel()
568 - opensync plugin:
569 - refactored vformat helpers into separate base class
570 called vBase
571 - added vCard converter class
572 - commented out the code that skipped over the adding
573 of empty attribute values and parameters,
574 since VCARD depends on some of this behaviour
575 - movified vformat.c:vformat_find_attribute() to take
576 an extra nth argument, in order to search
577 for multiple attributes with the same name...
578 the way this is coded is a bit inefficient...
579 but we're moving away from vformat when we move
580 to OpenSync 0.3x / 0.40, so this is just temporary
581 pain
582 2007/07/19
583 - added SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device" to example udev rules, in order
584 to avoid running bcharge for each endpoint that is
585 added by udev, when first plugged in. Running bcharge
586 back-to-back multiple times can crash some
587 Blackberries.
588 2007/07/14
589 - opensync plugin:
590 - fixed ID mapping bug in the case of a non-numeric UID
591 from syncing external -> Barry, and then the
592 new Barry ID would look like a new change
593 when syncing back from Barry -> external.
594 - added support for slow sync
595 - added clear() to idmap class
596 - added vformat attr parameter extraction class
597 - added more trace logging during vformat/Barry conversions
598 - added Notification time support
599 - handled "all day" vformat special case, when DTEND
600 does not exist in a vformat data block
601 - changed the min1900_t time conversion functions to handle
602 the 0xffffffff special case, when notifications
603 are turned off on a calendar event (src/time.cc)
604 - also made the calendar data dump output clearer for
605 disabled timestamps, and added debug output
606 for the raw min1900 value, in case there are more
607 special cases in the future
608 2007/07/13
609 - fixed null pointer access in opensync's HasMultipleVEvents()
610 2007/07/12
611 - upper management directive: revert all OpenSync 0.3x changes
612 and proceed with OpenSync 0.22. Reverting the
613 opensync-plugin/src tree to Barry 0.7 status.
614 2007/07/06
615 - reorganized exception and trace code in opensync plugin
616 - added XmlToCalendar() function, based on unfinished opensync
617 library API that is not yet finished... will be
618 committed to opensync svn tree when complete
619 - added OSyncXMLField logger to plugin trace class
620 2007/06/29
621 - applied email MessageRecord patch from Brian Edginton (thanks!)
622 - updated Message::Dump() to output more valid mbox data...
623 the goal is to be able to do:
624 btool -d "Messages" > email.mbox
625 mutt -f email.mbox
626 - changed some TODO's to FIXME's to keep it grep-consistent
627 - applied Folder support patch from Brian Edginton
628 - fixed pedantic compile warnings, and changed order in src/Makefile.am
629 - removed unneeded cast in src/r_folder.cc
630 2007/06/28
631 - minor adjustment to ctags building in buildgen.sh
632 - applied patch from Brian Edginton for better boost detection
633 in configure.ac
634 - added boost usage message to btool -h output
635 2007/06/21
636 - more porting of OpenSync module to 0.30
637 - added ctags build for opensync source tree to buildgen.sh
638 2007/06/14
639 - changed PKG_CONFIG_PATH setting in rpm script, so that systems
640 like SuSE that have an extensive PKG_CONFIG_PATH
641 in general use will not break on build
642 - added PKG_CONFIG_PATH to debian script too, just in case :-)
643 - added debian/changelog to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
644 - added comment to rpm/barry.spec regarding SuSE RPM builds
645 2007/06/08
646 - applied patch from Niels de Vos fixing debian package build
647 dependency
648 - applied Brian Edginton's Saved Email Messages patch
649 - updated r_saved_messages.cc comment to match header
650 - added GetRecType()/GetUniqueId() to r_saved_messages.h, since
651 SetIds() is already there
652 - removed Address version of operator<<() from message related headers
653 and moved into record.h
654 - added std::hex to message related dumps, and changed output to
655 be more mbox-like
656 - updated doc/CodingStyle.txt to cover switch() statements
657 - opensync compiles again, with 0.30! (not functional yet)
658 - moving closer to more modular and reusable plugin functions
659 - updated release checklist for opensync version number
660 2007/06/07
661 - added doc/CodingStyle.txt... preliminary version
662 2007/06/06
663 - applied Brian Edginton's PIN message patch
664 - changes to PIN message patch:
665 - fixed missing backslash in src/Makefile.am
666 - fixed tab alignment throughout
667 - removed typedef from Address struct
668 - added clear() to Address... might as well, if it it is
669 going to be a standalone type
670 - fixed missing comma in PINMessageFieldLinks table
671 - changed MessageRecordId in PINMessage to load from a new
672 uint32_t field in CommonField, instead of piggy
673 backing on a field for other use
674 - did some testing and found that PINMessage's MessageRecordId
675 is the same as the RecordId given through the SetIds()
676 API... but these Id's are duplicated in the protocol...
677 RecordId is stored in the protocol header, while
678 MessageRecordId is stored in the record it self as
679 a common field... added RecType and RecordId to
680 PIN Message so that we store both of these
681 - updated AUTHORS
682 2007/05/27
683 - added item to gui/TODO
684 - applied Brian Edginton's s11n-boost.h patch
685 2007/05/25

690 - reformatted the code to match coding style
691 (come on Brian) :-)
692 - added copyright notice
693 - changed class to singular (Memo, not Memos)
694 - placed in Barry namespace
695 - added #ifdef header protectors
696 - added new files to Makefile.am
697 - added new r_*.h headers to record.h
698 - added support for Memos and Tasks to tools/btool.cc, based on
699 Brian Edginton's patch
700 (currently commented out, for Boost library reasons):
701 - added doc/CommitPolicy.txt
702 - updated AUTHORS
703 2007/05/24
704 - added ctags generation to buildgen.sh
705 - applied record.{h,cc} fix patch from Brian Edginton
706 - ClassFlag
707 - FreeBusyFlag
708 - Clear() fixes
709 - fixed broken formatting in above patch
710 - refactored record parser classes into separate files for each
711 - changed the ConvertHtoB<> template to inline, as it caused
712 linker errors with the new file layout
713 2007/05/17
714 - fixed bug in Debian packaging that put util commands in
715 /bin and /sbin instead of /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
716 - commited byteswap.h replacement code from gm2net
717 - backup gui:
718 - removed unneeded debug messages on stdout
719 - changed the default for debug output to "off"
720 and added a command line option to turn
721 it on if necessary (--debug-output)
722 - command line option --help now also works
723 - fixed bug in Calendar class where it didn't initialize
724 RecType properly... and cleaned up other RecType
725 code to use the GetDefaultRecType() functions,
726 localizing the constants in one place
727 2007/05/11
728 - applied patches from Brian Edginton, parsing more
729 fields in Contact and Calendar records
730 - added Brian Edginton to AUTHORS
731 - reformatted record.{h,cc} to match the rest of the code,
732 removed commented out code, and removed mention of
733 Outlook from the comments.
734 - updated udev/10-blackberry.rules.Debian for Debian Etch
735 - updated debian/rules to use new udev rules file
736 - removed debian/postinst, as stable versions of Debian now
737 have a recent udev, and don't need the special handling
738 - updated Debian build scripts to build separate packages:
739 libbarry
740 libbarry-dev
741 barry-util
742 barrybackup-gui
743 - added menu support to Debian barrybackup-gui package
744 - made the buttons bigger in the backup GUI, as they were too
745 small on Debian Etch
746 - opensync plugin:
747 - more progress in porting to opensync 0.30, heavily
748 based on the example plugin in the opensync
749 svn tree... this is a work in progress, and so far
750 is incomplete
751 2007/05/04
752 - opensync plugin:
753 - partial porting to opensync 0.30 (in progress!)
754 - fixed bug in sync_done where it reported context error
755 and then success afterward
756 - checking in new INSTALL files based on Etch's autoconf run
757 - added item to gui's todo list
758 - bumped version numbers to 0.8 in:
759 - configure.ac
760 - src/Makefile.am
761 - src/version.cc
762 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
763 - src/Doxygen
764 - rpm/barry*.spec
766 Release: version 0.7 - 2007/05/02
767 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

774 - added pppob to rpm barry.spec
775 - bumped release number in barry.spec
776 2007/04/30
777 - opensync plugin:
778 - fixed size check bugs (strlen() == 0 when empty)
779 - finished refactoring calendar conversion routines
780 - started timezone parsing, but this may go away
781 if we use opensync 0.30's time functions and
782 xml data format...
783 - added development note to README
784 2007/04/29
785 - updated README and opensync-plugin/README with more current
786 build instructions
787 - opensync plugin:
788 - refactored some calendar conversion routines
789 - added Barry->vCalendar conversion for recurring appointments
790 2007/04/27
791 - opensync module:
792 - removed some unneeded trace logs
793 - fixed VEventConverter constructor bug, with uninitialized
794 m_Data pointer
795 - eased up the requirement that every calendar event
796 must have a summary... defaults to "<blank subject>"
797 if empty
798 - added more VCALENDAR fields to match Barry::Calendar record
799 - fixed case sensitive compares in vformat.c
800 2007/04/26
801 - opensync module work:
802 - added id map class to map string uid's from OpenSync to
803 numeric ID's from the Blackberry
804 - fixed bug in CommitChange() where it was still using
805 a hard coded calendar record state table
806 - added lots of logging throughout
807 - fixed bug where newly added records didn't use the
808 change object's uid, but created a new ID,
809 causing another sync on the next run
810 i.e. (CommitData_t was missing an argument)
811 - fixed bug where uninitialized notification time was
812 written to the Blackberry
813 - more opensync module work:
814 - refactored the environment class into another subclass
815 called DatabaseSyncState, and moved some stand-
816 alone functions from barry_sync.cc into
817 the environment classes
818 - added a tagged constructor to the trace class
819 - fixed idmap::Load() to clear map before loading
820 2007/04/20
821 - renamed barry-config to barry-sync, the default configuration
822 file for the opensync module... and filled it with
823 a sample configuration
824 - added code to update the calendar cache, and write it to disk
825 on success (opensync module)
826 - added code to clear dirty flags in the device (opensync module)
827 - allowed comments in the config file
828 - added vformat.c from libopensync 0.22, since the vformat
829 routines are not available from the plugin side
830 2007/04/19
831 - updated gui/TODO
832 - added -d switch to bcharge to switch back from 0001 to 0004 mode,
833 changed the auto-detection logic to ignore iProduct and
834 only use idProduct, and updated man page
835 - updated breset to recognize the Pearl in 00004 mode as well
836 - changed src/probe.cc logic to assume that the second endpoint
837 pair is the one needed for database communication, instead
838 of doing a reverse search from the end... newer Pearls
839 in Dual mode seem to have at least 3 or 4 endpoint pairs,
840 and the old search didn't always work
841 - applied sourceforge patch #1696884 from Peter Silva, updating
842 the Debian build for Etch, and including all files in one deb
843 - added Peter Silva to AUTHORS file
844 - uncommented the "make distclean" in debian/rules, and removed
845 the reliance on /tmp when installing 99-barry-perms.rules
846 - applied bb_task_format.txt patch from Peter Silva
847 - fixed each misspelling of "recurrance" to "recurrence"
848 - tweaked src/probe.cc again for paranoia's sake... start at
849 offset 1 if more than 1 endpoint pair, otherwise start
850 search at 0
851 - split up opensync module into multiple source files, and started
852 using the opensync vformat routines for parsing and building
853 the vevent20 data (experimental)
854 2007/04/04
855 - more incremental work on the opensync plugin, adding ADDED
856 and MODIFIED functionality... (experimental!)
857 2007/03/30
858 - added code to dump extra descriptors during device discovery,
859 if found
860 - bumped opensync version number in configure.ac, and made
861 the configure scripts more consistent with the rest
862 of the project
863 - fixed printf-format size bug in opensync module
864 2007/03/29
865 - applied patch from Niels de Vos, fixing deb udev rules for Pearl
866 - updated AUTHORS
867 - fixed extra space bug in LDIF output (added space when creating
868 FullName, even if there was no last name)
869 - fixed Address Book record parsing in Contact class... the
870 Blackberry database uses field id 0x20 for both the
871 first and last names, and if only a last name exists,
872 the first name will be empty. Fixed parser to handle
873 this special case, without relying on string length.
874 Thanks to Troy Engel for reporting above two LDIF bugs.
875 - added a few more constants to bcharge.cc
876 - renamed opensync's configure.in to configure.ac
877 2007/03/17
878 - fixed bcharge to avoid endless reset loop... oops
879 2007/03/16
880 - reorganized bcharge.cc to make it possible to switch between
881 Pearl modes 0004 and 0001
882 - added flag to BadPassword exception class, to signal whether
883 the library considers the device "out of retries" or not
884 - updated socket.cc for new BadPassword exception
885 - added special case to Controller class destructor to reset the
886 device if being destroyed in a half-open state... this is
887 a temporary fix until we understand how to handle
888 the "already open" message we get when opening the Desktop
889 in some cases
890 - added password prompt dialog to the backup GUI
891 - fixed possible memory leak in GUI's DeviceInterface::Connect()
892 2007/03/08
893 - committed Troy Engel's bbrules_mass_symlinks.patch, fixing
894 udev rules for the Pearl
895 - updated 10-blackberry.rules.Debian to match 10-blackberry.rules's
896 functionality
897 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to generate all required
898 RPM's... Thank you! Notes in the README taken from
899 the sourceforge tracker entry containing the patch.
900 - added libusb lib flags to tools/ and examples/ makefiles,
901 and tweaked configure.ac with a better default,
902 to build cleanly on RHEL 4
903 - modified rpm/barry.spec:
904 - does not create doc-only barry base package anymore
905 - fixed "barry-backup" typo
906 - removed the patch step, as version 0.7 shouldn't need it
907 - added license file to each package
908 - commented out console perms scripts, pending mailing list
909 discussion
910 - updated AUTHORS
911 - applied Troy Engel's barry.spec patch to fix RHEL4 compile issues
912 - fixed 80 column wrapping error in barry.spec, thanks to Troy Engel
913 for the bug report
914 - applied Troy Engel's udev permissions patch for Redhat/Fedora
915 systems, which automatically set the ownership of a
916 newly plugged in device to the currently logged in console
917 user.
918 - added udev/README to document what all those files are for...
919 part of the text comes from the sourceforge comment
920 on the above udev permissions patch from Troy Engel
921 - uncommented the console perms scripts for rpm/barry.spec
922 - added libglademm-2.4 to gui/README's dependency list
923 - made usbwrap.* calls more threadsafe
924 - added Usb::Timeout exception for timeout errors
925 - added preliminary UsbSerData support to library for GPRS modem
926 functionality, using Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry's serdata.c
927 as a guide
928 - added overloaded Socket::Send() for sending without receiving
929 - added preliminary pppob command line tool
930 2007/03/02
931 - version bump in:
932 - configure.ac
933 - src/Makefile.am
934 - src/version.cc
935 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
936 - src/Doxyfile
937 - rpm/barry.spec
938 - build system tweaks for opensync-plugin, and added a buildgen.sh
939 for it
940 - added better debug messages in probe.cc and usbwrap.cc's
941 device discovery code
942 - changed error handling for null interface->altsetting pointers
943 when doing device discovery in usbwrap.cc. Seems that
944 some devices report a higher number in bNumInterfaces
945 than are really available... in this case, let's
946 just ignore the missing data and assume success
947 - applied udev script patch #1663986 from Troy Engel
948 - applied barry-bcharge.spec patch #1672178 from Troy Engel
949 - ReleaseChecklist update
950 - added rpm/README based on Troy Engel's patch notes
951 - updated new barry-bcharge.spec for version 0.7, removing patch
952 dependency
954 Release: version 0.6 - 2007/02/28
955 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
956 2007/02/28
957 - fixed size checks for device database records larger than 64K
958 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
959 - added initial release maintainer scripts
960 - fixed odd backup success message in GUI when doing a backup with
961 no databases selected in configuration
962 Thanks to Michael Brown for the bug report.
963 - added udev permissions file patch from Michael Brown
964 - added Michael Brown to AUTHORS
965 - updated README, gui/README, and doc/USB-capture.txt
966 - added -o command line switch to bcharge.cc, and updated man page
967 2007/02/23
968 - changed library behaviour so it only turns on libusb debug output
969 if in data dump mode. In btool, -v controls this output.
970 - minor stream formatting fix in btool
971 - added OpenSSL dependency to build for password hash support
972 - made debug dout() output conditional on Init() flag... In btool,
973 -v now controls this as well
974 - reverse engineered more of the initial probe packets, and
975 implemented probing in struct based code... changes include:
976 - added support for "attribute fetch" packets, used at
977 the beginning of USB conversations
978 - defined object/attribute id codes for the PIN number
979 - made Protocol::SocketCommand more robust, and implemented
980 its sequence number behaviour
981 - moved ModeSelectCommand into SocketCommand, as it is a
982 socket 0 level command
983 - added initial protocol struct: PasswordChallenge
984 - renamed Barry::Packet to DBPacket
985 - added ZeroPacket for socket 0 packet creation and analysis
986 - Barry::Packet is now the base class for the above
987 - implemented socket 0 behaviour in socket.cc
988 - changed return values for Send/Receive/Packet/NextRecord
989 members in the Socket class from bool to void, as they
990 don't generate errors themselves, but only can
991 have an error if Usb::Device throws an exception.
992 Cleaned up all code that called these members as well.
993 - removed "last status" from Socket class as it was unused
994 - updated probe.cc to use new socket 0 implementation
995 - removed two of the hard coded packet handshakes in favour
996 of socket 0 packets
997 - updated controller.cc:
998 - uses new socket 0 implementation
999 - removed "flag" hack when opening sockets and
1000 selecting modes, as it should use the
1001 socket 0 sequence number
1002 - added initial, incomplete prototype header for the C API
1003 - updated some .cvsignore files
1004 - updated TODO
1005 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt, adding rpm spec file
1006 - added the following to ZeroPacket:
1007 - ChallengeSeed()
1008 - RemainingTries()
1009 - SocketResponse()
1010 - SocketSqeuence()
1011 - moved Command() to base Packet class
1012 - added comments to protostructs.h and size constants for the
1013 new PasswordChallenge struct
1014 - added password support to Socket and Controller classes
1015 Thanks to Rick Scott's XmBlackBerry for the openssl
1016 password hashing logic.
1017 - updated btool to use new password support, and updated its man page
1018 2007/02/22
1019 - updated Doxygen input files and version, and added to ReleaseChecklist
1020 - fixed btool PIN output for LDIF mode, now commented in output
1021 - major LDIF overhaul:
1022 - split LDIF specific code out of the record class and
1023 into its own
1024 - fixed "full name" behaviour that added an extra space
1025 in dn attributes, as reported by Troy Engel
1026 - added support for mapping of LDIF attributes to Barry
1027 contact field names
1028 - fixed base64 handling, so attributes are only so encoded
1029 if necessary
1030 - fixed base64 attribute reading inconsistency... some
1031 notes fields were missed in old version if not
1032 encoded
1033 - added support for specifying alternate attribute for
1034 constructing a FQDN, instead of just "cn"
1035 - updated btool and upldif to use new features
1036 - large update to btool manpage
1037 - fixed initialization bug in Contact constructor (missed RecType)
1038 2007/02/15
1039 - added ktrans.cc to make reading of kernel usbfs_snoop logs easier
1040 - removed commented code from translate.cc
1041 - added Pearl handshake support to bcharge.cc, which resets the
1042 Pearl so that the vendor specific 0xFF class exists.
1043 This should allow use of btool on the Pearl.
1044 - added Data::AppendHexString to data.cc
1045 - added better probing support for the Pearl, so it detects the
1046 Product ID 0x0004 mode, and does a search for class 0xFF
1047 instead of hardcoding it.
1048 2007/02/10
1049 - applied README patch from Ian Darwin
1050 - minor tweaks to README
1051 - added missing errno.h header in src/usbwrap.cc for AMD64
1052 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting the bug.
1053 - tightened up size checks in Data::ReleaseBuffer()
1054 - stable libusb *does* return the actual length of the USB packet...
1055 fixed this in usbwrap.cc to set the actual size of read data,
1056 and removed the size hacks elsewhere in the code:
1057 probe.cc, protocol.cc, socket.cc, usbwrap.cc
1058 2007/02/09
1059 - added proper return codes for error conditions in btool.cc
1060 - clarified some stream output code in the library, for hex/dec numbers
1061 - removed old, non-working connect.cc test program
1062 - added iomanip to debug.h
1063 - changed usbwrap to call libusb again if EINTR and EAGAIN
1064 This should fix one of the OpenBSD issues
1065 2007/02/04
1066 - updated AUTHORS
1067 - fixed bug in barrybackup GUI that didn't create the target path
1068 if the user didn't do Edit | Config first.
1069 Thanks to Ian Darwin for reporting the bug.
1070 - applied gui/src/ConfigFile.cc header fix patch for OpenBSD
1071 from Ian Darwin
1072 2007/02/03
1073 - added initial btool.1 man page from Ian Darwin
1074 - updated man/Makefile.am for new btool.1
1075 - updated AUTHORS
1076 - applied btool -h help clarification patch from Ian Darwin
1077 2007/02/02
1078 - reworked exception hierarchy, so applications can handle all
1079 Barry related exceptions, including Usb errors, with
1080 one base class: Barry::Error
1081 - fixed all the ripple changes this caused throughout the codebase
1082 - added BadPassword exception
1083 2007/02/01
1084 - version bump in:
1085 - configure.ac
1086 - src/Makefile.am
1087 - src/version.cc
1088 - gui/src/BackupWindow.cc (about dialog)
1089 - updated doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1090 - added usb-level breset.cc command line tool
1091 - fixed bug in gui/src/tarfile.* for systems where
1092 sizeof(int) != sizeof(void*)
1093 - TarFile class now uses a plugin style for the compression
1094 operations, to allow for threadsafe versions if needed
1095 in the future.
1096 - also fixed leaked file handle bug in open_compressed()
1097 - Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this for 64bit systems
1098 - minor signed comparison fixes in the library
1099 - added better protocol data dumping code in probe.cc
1100 - added Usb::Device::BulkDrain(), to prevent Barry from hanging
1101 due to pending reads
1103 Release: version 0.5 - 2007/01/26
1104 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1105 2007/01/26
1106 - added missing errno.h header to gui/src/util.cc
1107 - lots more endian fixes after testing on iMac
1108 - iostream output size fixes
1109 - added option to btool to reset the device via software
1110 - beefed up exception handling in barrybackup
1111 - checked in opensync work-in-progress: trace logging, pointer bugfix
1112 this is still experimental
1113 - added aboutdialog.* files from gtkmm24 2.10.6, so we have a dialog
1114 class for systems running older versions of gtkmm, like
1115 Debian stable
1116 - uncommented the about box menu handler
1117 - added "cleanall" option to root buildgen.sh script
1118 - update ReleaseChecklist.txt
1119 - removed CVS auto-history strings from aboutdialog.*
1120 2007/01/25
1121 - found a link between the unknown field in tagged protocol headers
1122 and the unknown field in RecordStateTable entries. This
1123 field matters when uploading certain databases, such as
1124 Browser Options. It is unknown what this field really
1125 means, but we're calling it RecType. Updated the API
1126 to use this in all parser objects and builder objects
1127 and record objects that use it.
1128 - changed some uses of uint64_t to uint32_t, in Contact and
1129 Calendar record objects... unique IDs only seem to be
1130 32 bits
1131 - added new static function to record classes: GetDefaultRecType()
1132 This returns the default rectype that should work
1133 for that record. Ideally this should be retrieved from
1134 the device, but in the case where a database has no
1135 records, this info would be good to know.
1136 - updated convenience template function Controller::AddRecordByType()
1137 to use GetDefaultRecType()
1138 - documented the recurrence data and how to use it in Calendar objects
1139 - added data debug output for incoming USB packets in the
1140 socket class... when we ported to the stable libusb
1141 we lost some of the verbose output... this should get it
1142 back. (In the official release, you need to uncomment
1143 ddout() in debug.h for the full blast of debug output).
1144 - backup GUI updates:
1145 - changed error_done signal into a pure error signal,
1146 and changed the logic so the restore continues
1147 even if there was a protocol error on one database
1148 - changed status bar messages to show what's happening
1149 i.e. Backup or Restore
1150 - default to not restore the "Handheld Agent" database as
1151 it appears to be read-only on the device
1152 - added temporary Restore & Backup mode for debugging
1153 - added extra hyphen to backup files to show date/time better
1154 - updated GUI to save and restore the new RecType field
1155 supported now by the library
1156 2007/01/21
1157 - added future considerations to doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1158 - applied big endian patch from Jonathan Hudson
1159 - changes to patch:
1160 - removed endian.h include from barry.h, since applications
1161 using the library should not care about endianness
1162 - hard coded the path to config.h in endian.h
1163 so that endian.h never makes it into the final
1164 install
1165 - removed DEFAULT_INCLUDES setting from src/Makefile.am
1166 for the same reason
1167 - removed config.h dependency in btool.cc and used library
1168 Version call instead
1169 - added big/little endian text to the Barry::Version call
1170 - updated AUTHORS
1171 - fixed install location of bcharge when building with ./configure;
1172 now goes to sbin/ for both source compile and binary packages
1173 Thanks to Jonathan Hudson for reporting this bug.
1174 2007/01/20
1175 - added smarter timeout values to controller, and allowed
1176 timeout overrides in the packet, socket, and usbwrap code...
1177 extra timeouts are needed for erasing databases for
1178 some older devices
1179 - added an explicit DataDumpParser class to btool.cc, as the
1180 library doesn't always have extreme verbose debugging on...
1181 this makes sure anyone can always get raw database packets
1182 through btool, for development
1183 - added thread callback signals for error finishes and erase_db
1184 operations, so the GUI is updated properly
1185 - more GUI cleanups (status bar updates, etc)
1186 - finished implementation of GUI restore
1187 - fixed gtkmm/glibmm exception handling when the exceptions
1188 occur in sigc signal handlers... in that case,
1189 exceptions need to be handled with
1190 Glib::add_exception_handler()
1191 - added filename-only reading support to TarFile class
1192 - added pending gui/TODO items
1193 2007/01/19
1194 - backup GUI now properly shows progress
1195 - the buttons become insensitive when backup is busy
1196 - refactored directory check code, and added mkdir check
1197 when to the backup setup (so the directory exists
1198 when we try to write to it)
1199 - updated code to use Barry::Data in new namespace
1200 2007/01/18
1201 - moved Data class into Barry namespace
1202 2007/01/13
1203 - updated copyright dates for the new year
1204 - clarified exception message in controller.cc
1205 - fixed pointer initialization bug in controller.cc
1206 - added documentation comments to parser.h and builder.h
1207 - updated ReleaseChecklist.txt
1208 - updated README
1209 - changed Barry library configure scripts to make better
1210 use of pkg-config for autodetecting dependencies
1211 - added initial Barry Backup GUI (gui/ directory), capable of making
1212 backups only at this point
1213 2007/01/11
1214 - added doc/ReleaseChecklist.txt
1215 - added version API, returning version number and string
1216 - added Troy Engel to AUTHORS
1217 - added special case to bcharge.cc for the Blackberry Pearl,
1218 which doesn't reset itself after the charge handshake
1219 Thanks to Troy Engel for testing.
1220 2007/01/05
1221 - added pkg-config support for the library (libbarry-0.pc.in)
1222 - fixed compile error on g++ 3.3 systems (missing stdint.h
1223 in probe.h)
1224 - fixed protocol hang at end of Controller operation... in
1225 controller destructor, it was deleting the USB interface
1226 before closing the socket at the BlackBerry level, thereby
1227 leaving the device in Desktop mode
1228 2007/01/04
1229 - support the newer udev packages on Ubuntu, which need slightly
1230 different rules
1231 - modified bcharge.cc to search for Pearl devices too.
1232 USB product ID 6
1233 - added Pearl product ID to probe code, but likely not functional
1234 yet until we find someone able to get a USB capture for us
1235 2006/12/29
1236 - version bump in configure.ac and src/Makefile.am
1238 Release: version 0.4 - 2006/12/29
1239 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1240 2006/12/29
1241 - added bcharge.cc to the tools/ directory (whoohoo!)
1242 - added initial release version of rpm/barry.spec (aka bcharge.spec)
1243 This begins the barry binary release, currently only
1244 including the bcharge utility, but possibly more in
1245 the future. Future binary packages will likely include
1246 libbarry, libbarry-devel, etc, which barry will then
1247 depend on.
1248 - added udev rule script for BlackBerry devices
1249 - added man/ directory and bcharge.1 manpage
1250 - added debian/ directory for building deb packages, with initial
1251 package scripts
1252 - added rpm/make-rpm-tarball.sh for building RPMs
1253 - split out technical docs into separate libbarry.docs file for
1254 a future Debian install
1255 - added more cleaning to buildgen.sh
1256 - added new udev rule file for Debian stable
1257 - hardcoded g++ to 3.3 in debian/rules as I have multiple versions
1258 on my system and need to compile releases with stable
1259 2006/12/21
1260 - ported Barry to use the stable branch of libusb
1261 NOTE: no longer depends on the devel libusb tarball!
1262 Just use your distro's libusb packages.
1263 - fixed more endian issues
1264 - minor update to TODO
1265 2006/12/15
1266 - moved Exceptions, Hacking, and VersionNotes to doc/
1267 - added doc/USB-capture.txt
1268 2006/12/08
1269 - added Controller::AddRecord() and template helper
1270 - added beginning version of generic RecordFetch<> template
1271 - set default of Barry::Init() to false (no data dump mode)
1272 - added examples/ directory, with first addcontact.cc example
1273 2006/12/07
1274 - added autoconf support based on Peter McAlpine's patch
1275 - renamed Makefiles to Makefile.orig and added script to turn
1276 on old build system if wanted
1277 - fixed boost-specific error path in btool
1278 - moved platform specific code out of time.h and into time.cc
1279 - moved btool.cc, translate.cc, and upldif.cc out of src/ and
1280 into their own tools/ subdirectory
1281 - added NEWS file to make autotools happy
1282 - added a "clean" option to the buildgen.sh script... maintainer's
1283 use only
1284 - reworked autoconf and automake files, to support
1285 barry as a library, to move the programs into their
1286 own tools directory, and support a proper installation
1287 - fixed headers in parser.h, btool.cc, and upldif.cc to work
1288 properly when installed standalone
1289 - added tools/Makefile.plain for testing compiling against
1290 installed barry library
1291 - added commentary on version number system
1292 - removed Makefile.conf and Makefile.orig, as new autoconf
1293 system supercedes it
1294 - added support for boost serialization library in autoconf build
1295 - added library version number to autoconf build
1296 - changed boost flag to __BARRY_BOOST_MODE__ to avoid collisions
1297 - removed debug.h dependency from btool.cc
1298 - removed libusb check in favour of specific --with-libusb
1299 option... may need to revisit this later
1300 - quick installation update in README
1301 2006/12/01
1302 - fixed some missed endian conversions in record.cc and added
1303 some size checks
1304 - fixed endian issues in time.h
1305 - added 2 more functions to the time zone API, and adjusted
1306 the time zone table for better defaults in North America
1307 - added btool and upldif to the make install sequence
1308 - added support for Calendar recurrence data
1309 - small doc/TimeZones.txt update
1310 2006/11/24
1311 - added BlackBerry time zone code list, reverse engineered from a 7750
1312 - added GetTimeZone() to convert device time zone codes to useful data
1314 Release: version 0.0.3 - 2006/11/24
1315 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1316 2006/11/23
1317 - added return code check to Controller::SaveDatabase()
1318 - fixed Data() class constructor, so it doesn't auto-convert
1319 from any int
1320 - fixed size checking bug in Packet::ReturnCode() that caused
1321 uploading to device to fail
1322 2006/11/10

1327 - added utility functions to the RecordStateTable class,
1328 GetIndex() and MakeNewRecordId()
1329 - changed btool so that the -d command modifiers can be
1330 specified multiple times to work with multiple records
1331 at once
1332 - added Calendar sync code to the opensync module (not complete)
1333 - cleaned up exception handling in the opensync module, making
1334 more use of the base exception to make sure no
1335 exceptions leak into the C library code
1337 Release: version 0.0.2 - 2006/10/12
1338 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1339 2006/10/12
1340 - fixed casting error in opensync module
1341 - minor updates to documentation to prepare for release
1342 2006/09/29
1343 - added stdint.h to parser.h for uint32_t. Thanks Ron Gage for
1344 the bug report
1345 2006/09/08
1346 - large refactoring of the packet parsing and building code,
1347 splitting the code into 3 groups:
1348 - record: handles record specific parsing and building...
1349 this is mostly subfields with CommonField structs
1350 as their headers, but sometimes has a specific
1351 header of its own, in the case of email
1352 Note: email's header is as yet undecoded.
1353 Record does not know the details of the packet
1354 formats, only the formats of its own record data.
1355 - packet: handles building of complete command packets
1356 and handles parsing of commonly used header values,
1357 providing an API for it... packet does not know
1358 the record format details, but does know the
1359 details of each Database Operation (protocol.h)
1360 packet format.
1361 So far, it seems that there is a real separation
1362 of operation formats and record formats, with the
1363 record formats being the same even with different
1364 database operation codes (GET_RECORDS /
1365 OLD_GET_RECORDS), which was not confirmed before.
1366 See the header size of the email record after
1367 refactoring.
1368 - controller: handles device state, and the management of
1369 sockets, commands, and checking for response values.
1370 The Controller object does not know the format
1371 of either the record or the packet it is sending,
1372 but does know the protocol handshake logic used
1373 to talk to the device.
1374 - implemented SetRecord (SET_RECORD_BY_INDEX)... syncing, here
1375 we come!
1376 - spelling correction in opensync-plugin/AUTHORS
1377 2006/09/01
1378 - added sample hotplug scripts
1379 - added .cvsignore files for doxygen and opensync directories
1380 - added src/endian.h... still need to add configure support to
1381 handle non-little-endian machines
1382 - added exception handler in opensync plugin commit_change()
1383 - removed the device reset code in probe.cc, as resetting a device
1384 can renumber the devices in /proc on kernel 2.4.x,
1385 and cause a failure to reach the device...
1386 FIXME - this should be changed someday to reset if probing
1387 fails, and restart the probe on reset, as sometimes
1388 the blackberry devices respond differently when not reset
1389 Ideally, the probe protocol should be properly reverse
1390 engineered.
1391 - added support for retrieving record state table, which is needed
1392 for smarter syncing
1393 - added support for retrieving, deleting, and clearing the dirty
1394 flags of individual blackberry device records
1395 - added endian macros throughout the code
1396 2006/07/13
1397 - added opensync-plugin to root Makefile's clean
1398 - updated time conversion calls to match opensync's latest SVN
1399 - added opensync_change_set_changetype() (only add for now,
1400 for development)
1401 - removed slow sync functions for now
1402 2006/07/07
1403 - added quick "install" makefile target, to src/install by default
1404 - added static library target... this is temporary until autoconf
1405 stuff is added properly... needed for the opensync plugin
1406 - documented in comments that Barry::BError is intended to be
1407 the base classes for all exceptions
1408 - added first round of implementation of an opensync plugin, based
1409 on the example plugin code from the opensync sources
1410 2006/06/22
1411 - added to Contact record class:
1412 - Clear()
1413 - ReadLdif() to load and parse LDAP data
1414 - added fragmented send support to Socket class
1415 - added Probe::FindActive() to make client programs more streamlined
1416 - fixed hex/decimal printing of record counts in btool
1417 - added upldif.cc, a utility to take ldapsearch output on stdin
1418 and upload it to a blackberry
1419 - updated src/.cvsignore
1420 2006/06/16
1421 - added parsing of service book fields:
1422 - old and new name
1423 - old and new unique ID (UID)
1424 - content ID (CID)
1425 - old and new description
1426 - DSID
1427 - bes domain / domain
1428 - date change in legal.txt
1429 - added initial parsing of ServiceBook field 0x09, and calling it
1430 ServiceBookConfig for now, for lack of a better name
1431 - added parsing for ServiceBook field 0x02 on 72xx Blackberries...
1432 seems to be a name or description, but doesn't appear
1433 in the device's own GUI... called "Hidden Name" for now
1434 2006/06/09
1435 - added ServiceBook record class and parser code, based on some
1436 of Ron Gage's reverse engineering... code is by Chris Frey
1437 - added AUTHORS file
1438 - fixed the libusb set_configuration/claim_interface order
1439 bug in controller.{h,cc}... already fixed in probe,
1440 but not controller. Thanks Ron Gage for finding this.
1441 2006/05/25
1442 - renamed Changelog to ChangeLog in preparation for autoconf
1443 - renamed Todo to TODO in preparation for autoconf
1444 2006/05/18
1445 - make clean cleans up tests properly now
1446 2006/03/31
1447 - turned source code browsing on in Doxyfile
1448 - added LoadDatabaseByName() and LoadDatabaseByType() template members
1449 to the Controller class
1450 - new file: controllertmpl.h
1451 - documentation fixes in builder.h
1452 - added static GetDBName() functions to all record classes, in
1453 support of the template Controller functions
1454 - fleshed out DatabaseDatabase::GetDBNumber() and GetDBName(),
1455 returning errors properly
1456 - documented sample btool.cc code better, and added example
1457 of Controller template member usage
1458 2006/03/29
1459 - copyright dates updated for 2006
1460 2006/01/05
1461 - backed out update to latest libusb DEVEL tree, since it is buggy.
1462 Stick with libusb 2005/11/26
1463 2005/12/30
1464 - added clean target to convenience Makefile
1465 - added Boost to list of dependencies in README
1466 - fixed minor compile warnings in base64.cc
1467 - fixed new USB discovery code, and changed endpoint usage to use
1468 it, instead of the READ_ENDPOINT and WRITE_ENDPOINT
1469 constants... constants are now removed
1470 common.h, controller.cc, probe.cc, probe.h, usbwrap.cc
1471 - added ClearHalt() to Usb::Device (usbwrap.cc)
1472 - updated usbwrap.h to match latest libusb CVS devel tree
1473 - updated README to refer to 2005/12/30 libusb CVS devel tree
1474 - added roadmap to Todo list
1475 2005/12/29
1476 - added convenience Makefile in root directory
1477 - added Hacking document
1478 - minor touchups to README
1479 - added caution warning to README, since this release will support
1480 delete / overwrite / upload functionality
1481 - minor compile order change in Makefile (speed reasons)
1482 - added dynamic endpoint discovery to probe.cc
1483 - changed claim_interface/set_configuration() function call order in
1484 probe.cc based on feedback on the libusb mailing list

1486 2005/12/23
1487 - fixed packing bug in new upload header struct
1488 - renamed CommonField union from data to u to be consistent
1489 - added return_code field to DBAccess struct, for error checking
1490 - added response checking during upload: if response is non-zero
1491 throw exception in controller.cc
1492 - added sorting operators to record parser classes... when writing
1493 contact data to the device, it may be important to write
1494 group link items last, since they reference other contacts...
1495 This needs to be tested, and if not required, removed.
1496 - added GROUP_FLAG field code to Contact parser class
1497 - fixed offset bug in Contact and Calendar Build() functions
1498 - fixed name bug in Contact::Build(), now output only with data
1499 - added appointment type flag support to Calendar record parser
1500 class, and "all day event" flag support
1501 2005/12/22
1502 - added autoconf to Todo list
1503 - refactored the protocol structures so that record structs can
1504 be reused for upload and download
1505 - with new protostructs, more header control is handled by
1506 controller.cc instead of record.cc parsers and builders
1507 - parser code now accepts an offset, to govern start of record data
1508 - changed Data sizes from int to size_t and removed casts
1509 - removed unneeded Parser::GetHeaderSize() (new protostructs make
1510 this obsolete)
1511 - added Calendar::Build() for calendar uploads
1512 2005/12/10
1513 - added s11n-boost.h serialization templates for boost::serialization
1514 - added boost::serialization to build
1515 - minor change in usbwrap.cc to display error codes in decimal
1516 - added SizePacket special case code to Socket::Send()... this is
1517 required when uploaded packet size is a multiple of 0x40,
1518 a special 3 byte size packet is sent
1519 - moved some record class variables to public: so they can be
1520 properly serialized
1521 - fixed variable name but in RecordBuilder template
1522 - added -f switch to btool, for saving and loading of record data
1523 - added -s switch to btool, for uploading saved data back to handheld
1524 - added Controller::SaveDatabase()
1525 2005/12/08
1526 - fixed potential casting / pointer bug in controller.cc
1527 - added builder.h, to support uploading
1528 - minor comment fixes in parser.h
1529 - added preliminary Contact protocol record building support
1530 - fixed field order bug in ContactRecord protocol struct
1531 - Contact record.h class now saves unknown Group Link field,
1532 for later saving
1533 2005/12/07
1534 - added -fno-strict-aliasing to compiler flags so gcc-4.0.x won't
1535 optimize away protocol struct casts

1541 02a2a3cc?hl=en#5714701b02a2a3cc
1542 - changed headers so that any low level protocol-specific sizes and
1543 structs are completely hidden in the library...
1544 this adds library-only header: protostructs.h
1546 Release: version 0.0.1 - 2005/11/25
1547 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1568 2005/11/19
1569 - added parser.{h,cc} virtual wrapper to generalize LoadDatabase()
1570 - added code to socket.cc's Packet() command to re-receive on
1571 reception of empty packets... this seems to be a signal
1572 from the device that it needs more time for long transfers
1573 Current limit: 10 blank packets before exception is thrown
1574 Observed maximum blank count: 1
1575 - added MessageRecord and OldMessageRecord to protocol.h
1576 - changed common record field structs to one CommonField struct
1577 - increased default USB timeout to 10 seconds (some loaded devices
1578 seem to need more time...)
1579 - reorganized record.{h,cc} to try to reduce the code duplication
1580 - record.h classes now "know" the sizes of their corresponding
1581 protocol structs... this may cause trouble down the line
1582 with Python, if used(?)
1583 - added Message class for Email records
1584 - removed the "Get*" database functions and replaced with
1585 general LoadDatabase() call, which loads any database
1586 available, and parses it with a Parser object
1587 - added GetDBID() for searching for database numbers via name
1588 - added test code to retrieve and display all email
1589 - cleaned up comments

1599 - removed Test() function in Controller object, and made class
1600 better suited to its general API purpose
1601 - changed OpenMode() so it loads command table and DBDB... it is now
1602 a public API function
1603 - moved Controller test code to btool.cc and made tool more
1604 generically useful... can now download any DB by name on
1605 the command line
1606 - added mode checks to Controller
1607 - added -t and -d command line options to btool
1608 - added base64 routines from John Walker / Fourmilab and Citadel/UX
1609 - converted base64 routines into an API, instead of hardcoded
1610 file based
1611 2005/11/18
1612 - changed project name to Barry, including namespaces
1613 - renamed sbcommon.* to common.*
1614 - increased USB default timeout to 2 seconds
1615 - fixed formatting bug in Data operator<< output
1616 - cleaned up the protocol packet structs, getting rid of the
1617 confusing param/simple split... param is now the tableCmd
1618 from the Command Table
1619 - moved protocol structs from record.h to protocol.h
1620 - added support for older version of the USB protocol, which matches
1621 the Cassis spec more closely
1622 - fixed the hardcoded offsets in blackberry.cc's protocol parsing
1623 - fixed Socket::Close() so on error, socket flags are reset.
1624 This stops Close() from being called twice on exception
1625 destructors
1626 2005/11/17
1627 - added Doxyfile to the project
1628 - tuned Makefile
1629 - added mode selection support to Blackberry class (RIM Desktop,
1630 RIM Bypass, and RIM_JavaLoader)
1631 Mode selection governs which socket is used in subsequent
1632 data transfers.
1633 - added Command Table parsing and protocol support
1634 Blackberry class, and CommandTable record class
1635 - added Database database parsing and protocol support
1636 Blackberry class and DatabaseDatabase record class
1637 - added Address book retrieval support - dumps data to stdout for now
1638 - fixed bug in CopyOnWrite mode in Data class, where could allocate
1639 less buffer than data copied
1640 - added "easy exception" debug output macro
1641 - fixed minor spelling error in protocol.cc
1642 - fixed ModeSelectCommand protocol structure - it is not a parameter
1643 command, but uses the unknown slots for socket and flag
1644 data
1645 - removed hardcoded socket numbers from protocol.h
1646 - fixed bug in socket.cc:Open() where packet size was not properly
1647 saved
1648 - implemented socket::Close()
1649 - fixed sequence number checks, so it is reset properly on socket 0
1650 - added Socket::NextRecord() for multiple record data transfers
1651 - fixed input handling bug in translate.cc
1652 2005/11/11
1653 - added .cvsignore files to project
1654 - added README notes to document the source architecture
1655 - added dbsetup data script, which shows how to get into database
1656 mode, using the RIM Desktop mode, and open a socket
1657 - added blackberry.{h,cc} class
1658 - added command line parameters to bbtool.cc
1659 -l = list only
1660 -p = specify pin of blackberry device
1661 - added blackberry test code in bbtool.cc - debugging the initial
1662 opening protocol: sockets, modes, etc... see dbsetup for
1663 results
1664 - added copy-on-write functionality to Data class, so it can be used
1665 with plain data buffers with little performance impact
1666 - added eout() and ddout() debugging - to separate:
1667 - regular debug output
1668 - exception debug output (should probably be logged to
1669 syslog someday, and never turned off)
1670 - raw data dump output
1671 - changed errno SBError exception handler to try to decode the error
1672 numbers into english (limited success)
1673 - fixed probe and socket USB Bulk message handling, so they don't
1674 use PollCompletions(), but use IO::Wait() (libusb_io_wait())
1675 - added common packet size checker in protocol.cc
1676 - fixed unpacked protocol packet structs... using gcc's
1677 __attribute__ ((packed)) ... see protocol.h
1678 - added ModeSelectCommand structure (protocol.h)
1679 - finished Socket::Open() call (Close() not yet implemented)
1680 - moved Socket::Send/Receive() out of private, as they can be used
1681 for socket 0 operations.
1682 - cleaned up pointer management with macros:
1683 MAKE_PACKET()
1684 COMMAND()
1685 IS_COMMAND()
1686 - added IO::Wait() and IO::Cancel() to correspond with libusb API
1687 - added datadumping in usbwrap for easy protocol capture
1688 - added preliminary record.{h,cc} classes
1689 - added Contact record parsing, and test code
1690 2005/10/20
1691 - syncberry tree started
