Hi friends!
I'm happy to announce that I've just packaged and uploaded libssh2 version
1.2.8 to the web site. Get it from:
http://www.libssh2.org/
libssh2 1.2.8
This release includes the following changes:
o added libssh2_free, libssh2_channel_get_exit_signal and
libssh2_session_handshake
o SFTP read/write remade and now MUCH faster, especially on high latency
connections
o added new examples: ssh2_echo.c, sftp_append.c and sftp_write_sliding.c
o userauth: derive publickey from private
o NEWS: now generated from git
This release includes the following bugfixes:
o Support unlimited number of host names in a single line of the
known_hosts file.
o fix memory leak in userauth_keyboard_interactive()
o fix memory leaks (two times cipher_data) for each sftp session
o session_startup: manage server data before server identification
o SCP: allow file names with bytes > 126
o scp_recv: improved treatment of channel_read() returning zero
o libssh2_userauth_authenticated: make it work as documented
o variable size cleanup: match internal variable sizes better with the sizes
of the fields used on the wire
o channel_request_pty_size: fix reqPTY_state
o sftp_symlink: return error if receive buffer too small
o sftp_readdir: return error if buffer is too small
o libssh2_knownhost_readfile.3: clarify return value
o configure: stop using the deprecated AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE syntax
o Fixed Win32 makefile which was now broken at resource build
o kex_agree_hostkey: fix NULL pointer derefence
o _libssh2_ntohu64: fix conversion from network bytes to uint64
o ssize_t: proper typedef with MSVC compilers
o zlib: Add debug tracing of zlib errors
o decomp: increase decompression buffer sizes
This release would not have looked like this without help, code, reports and
advice from friends like these:
Alexander Lamaison, Alfred Gebert, Guenter Knauf, Dan Fandrich,
Daniel Stenberg, Jasmeet Bagga, Joey Degges, Mark Smith, Peter Stuge,
Pierre Joye, Simon Josefsson, TJ Saunders, Tommy Lindgren
Thanks! (and sorry if I forgot to mention someone)
