Changes in libsoup from 2.31.2 to 2.31.90:
* libsoup now tries to connect to each IP address associated
with a hostname, if the first one fails. In particular, if a
host has both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, and only one of them
is reachable from the current host, libsoup will now try the
other one rather than failing. (libc is supposed to sort the
IP addresses in the right order, such that, eg, if you don't
have IPv6 connectivity, it will put the IPv4 address first.
For some reason though, this seems to be broken on some
distros.) [#526321].
* Fixed Accept-Language header generation in locales where ","
is used as the decimal point.
Changes in libsoup from 2.31.2 to 2.31.6:
* Disabled TLS 1.2 in addition to the already-disabled 1.1 and
1.0 [see below, in libsoup 2.27.2], thus making libsoup
usable with gnutls 2.10. [#622857. This commit, 01a43ad9,
can be applied to libsoup 2.30.x as well if you need that
release to work with gnutls 2.10.]
* When using libproxy 0.3 or newer, libsoup no longer leaks
proxy-related environment variables into child processes
[#603285]
* Changed the way message/connection binding works in
SoupSession so that (among other things), when there are
multiple requests queued to a host, and one of them gets a
network error, the other requests are still allowed to try
to succeed, rather than all failing immediately. [#619633]
* SoupSession now limits the number of times a message can be
redirected, to avoid infinite loops [#604383, José Millán
Soto]
* Fixed handling of certain messages where the response
headers included "Connection: close" but the server did not
actually close the connection at the end. [#611481]
* Fixed some incorrect g-i annotations [#621021]
* Fixed an out-of-bounds memory access when processing certain
Set-Cookie headers [#620288]
* Improved msg->reason_phrase on network errors [#623274]
* Fixed gir file disting [#621727, Yaakov Selkowitz]
Changes in libsoup from 2.30.1 to 2.31.2:
* gobject-introspection has now been merged in. Use
--enable-introspection to build. [#576595, Andreas Rottmann]
Note that the introspected API is not yet stable, and in
particular, there are numerous values annotated as "utf8"
which are actually not guaranteed to be utf8. (Eg, most
header data.)
* Added some helper functions for bindings:
soup_buffer_new_take(),
soup_message_body_append_take(), and
soup_buffer_get_data(). [#576595, Andreas Rottmann]
* Also added properties for several SoupMessage public
fields, and getter methods for various boxed types
(SoupCookie, SoupDate, SoupURI).
* Added some additional hash-table annotations.
[#619086, Gustavo Noronha Silva]
* Marked SoupSession abstract. [#617216, Lorenzo Gil, the
first bug filed by someone trying to use libsoup via
introspection!] Likewise for SoupAuth and SoupAuthDomain.
* Fixed a problem with SoupSessionAsync that would cause
messages to get lost if you aborted a previous message while
it was still looking up the hostname. Fixed several other
problems that were discovered while adding a regression test
for that. [#618641, thanks to Claudio Saavedra for a good
test case]
* Fixed another connecting-to-lame-http-server problem, and a
getting-stuck-in-a-loop-reconnecting bug that it revealed.
[#615535]
Changes in libsoup from 2.30.0 to 2.30.1:
* Fix for https through proxies that close the connection when
returning a "407 Proxy Authentication Required" response,
and add a regression test for that case. [#611663]
* Fixed multiple forms/multipart-related interoperability
problems reported by Egon Andersen:
* Don't quote the multipart boundary string if it's
not needed, since RFC 2616 recommends that you
don't, and some servers don't handle quotes there
correctly. (Sigh.) [#614176]
* Don't put an extra blank line before the first
multipart part, since it's unnecessary and some
servers don't handle a multipart preamble correctly.
(Sigh.) [#614183]
* Don't put Content-Transfer-Encoding headers in the
multipart/form-data parts, even though the HTML 4
spec says you must, since no other browsers do, and
some servers don't handle them correctly. (Sigh.)
[#614198]
* Changed SoupCookieJarSqlite to actually erase deleted
cookies from the database. [#615711, Lukasz Slachciak]
* Fixed SoupLogger to be more robust against getting passed
bad data by the session. [#611663]
* Fixed SoupAuthDomain to ignore paths when doing proxy auth
* Fixed a g_warning when hovering over a javascript link in
WebKit. [#613442, Xan Lopez]
Changes in libsoup from 2.29.91 to 2.30.0:
* Fixed a crash in the whitespace-stripping code in
soup_uri_new() [#612644, "arnaud.lb"]
* Update content-sniffing algorithm to match Chrome and the
soon-to-be-updated sniffing spec. [#611502, Gustavo Noronha
Silva]
* We now handle "Content-Encoding: x-gzip" as well as "gzip"
(even though "x-gzip" has been deprecated for more than 10
years). [#611476]
* Fixed leaks found by valgrind
* Make the "make check" programs only bind to 127.0.0.1, not
any public network interfaces. [#609489, Saleem Absulrasool]
* Add a test to sniffing-test to make sure that Content-Type
parameters are preserved correctly. [Gustavo Noronha Silva]
Changes in libsoup from 2.29.90 to 2.29.91:
* Added SOUP_SESSION_SSL_STRICT and
SOUP_MESSAGE_CERTIFICATE_TRUSTED, to allow callers to
determine if an https response comes from a server with a
recognized/valid or unrecognized/invalid certificate.
[#610374, Gustavo Noronha Silva]
* Fixed handling of certain badly-formatted URIs [#590524]
Changes in libsoup from 2.29.6 to 2.29.90:
* Added soup_cookie_jar_set_accept_policy() and related API
for implementing cookie acceptance policies. [#608353, Xan
Lopez]
* Fixed the "request-read" signal in SoupServer to actually be
emitted.
Changes in libsoup from 2.29.5 to 2.29.6:
* Fixed SoupContentDecoder to ignore trailing junk after the
encoded message body (as other browsers do), rather than
getting stuck in an infinite loop. [#606352]
* Fixed an invalid read in soup_cookie_applies_to_uri()
[#607024, pointed out by Xan]
* Fixed linking on OS X [#606959]
* Removed a harmless warning in SoupServer. [#606645]
Changes in libsoup from 2.29.3 to 2.29.5:
* Added SoupContentDecoder, providing support for
Content-Encoding: gzip for WebKitGTK. [#522772]
* Added "accept-language" and "accept-language-auto"
properties to SoupSession, to support the Accept-Language
header. [#597004, Mario Sanchez Prada]
* Fixed a bug in SoupPasswordManagerGNOME that could cause
crashes if you typed the wrong password once and then tried
again. [#595554, debugged by Gustavo Noronha Silva]
* Fixed a crash in SoupAuthDigest if the server claims support
for both qop=auth and qop=auth-int. (This was not noticed
sooner because no one actually supports qop=auth-int, and
the server in question here was probably confused. :)
* Updated cookie parsing/output to more closely match
draft-ietf-httpstate-cookie-00. [Also fixes #603496 (WebKit
unit test), and #604794 (hang parsing malformed Set-Cookie
header)]
* Fixed https-via-proxy to not hang if there is an error
communicating with the proxy immediately after the TLS
negotiation. [#587528]
* Fixed a bug that broke gobject-introspection's introspection
of libsoup. [#603696, Vincent Untz]
* Handle spurious CR/LFs between responses. [#602863,
Alexander V. Butenko]
* Fixed soup-message-client-io to not erroneously include URI
fragments on the Request-Line when sending via a proxy.
[Related to WebKit bug #28687]
* Fixed Digest authentication against certain (buggy?)
clients/servers that require you to use quotes in exactly the
same places where the spec uses them. [#582219]
* Fix ugly gtype-related hack to work with the latest unstable
glib. [Benjamin Otte]
Changes in libsoup from 2.28.1 to 2.29.3:
* Fixed a crash in SoupCookieJarSqlite when using cookie
databases not created by libsoup (eg, upgraded epiphany
installations). [Patch from Emilio Pozuelo Monfort]
* Fixed SoupCookieJar to handle non-http URIs properly (so
that, eg, JavaScript bookmarklets that try to set/read
cookies won't cause crashes). [#602498]
* HEAD requests that receive a "303 See Other" response will
now do a HEAD, not a GET, on the redirected-to resource.
Fixes gvfs access to some sites, including certain
youtube.com URIs. [#600830]
* Fixed a g_warning that would always trigger in the
server-side SoupCookie code. [#602389]
* Fixed the server-side SoupMultipart code to be able to parse
multiparts containing binary attachments, rather than
rejecting them as malformed. [#601640]
* Fixed the Request-Line format in the https-over-proxy case.
Among other things, this fixes access to bugzilla.gnome.org
from WebKitGTK-based browsers. [#598277, #600826]
* Fixed a leak in SoupSession if a message was cancelled while
the initial socket connection was in progress. [#596074,
debugged by Arnout Vandecappelle]
* Fixed server-side parsing of Digest auth. [#602898, Chris
Head]
* Fixed WinSock initialization on Windows. [#600689, Tor
Lillqvist]
* Fixed a sporadic crash in the SSL code on Windows. [#600748,
Tor Lillqvist]
* Fixed handling of https connections with timeouts on
Windows. [#600749, Tor Lillqvist]
* Added soup_session_prepare_for_uri(), to allow DNS
prefetching for faster browsing. [#598948, José Millán Soto]
* SoupSession now avoids redundant DNS lookups again when
first connecting to a new site, resulting in (probably
imperceptibly) faster loads.
* Added some debugging APIs to SoupConnection and SoupSession
for use by, eg, epiphany's soup-fly extension. [#589163,
José Millán Soto]
Changes in libsoup from 2.28.0 to 2.28.1:
* libsoup will now attempt to make multiple connections to a
server at once when there are multiple messages queued to
that server. The previous behavior (only allowing a single
pending connection to each server) resulted in slow load
times on pages with lots of subresources (images, css, js,
etc) on servers that disallow persistent connections.
[#594768]
* There should now be fewer (no?) "Connection terminated
unexpectedly" errors in WebKitGTK.
* Fixed a crash in SoupCookieJarSqlite [#596859, patch from
Alexander Sack].
* Fixed soup_address_get_physical() and address-to-name
resolution of SoupAddress [patch from Enrico Tröger].
* Fixed a bug in SoupContentSniffer that could cause false
negatives [#597545, patch from Alejandro Castro].
* Fixed the configure error if you have gnutls-devel but not
gcrypt-devel installed [#587709].
Changes in libsoup from 2.27.92 to 2.28.0:
* Fixed a handful of leaks found with valgrind, including a
large one in SoupContentSniffer [WebKit bug 28148].
* Changed the behavior of SoupCookieJarSqlite to improve
performance. [#584522, patch from Gustavo Noronha Silva]
* Fixed a crash in SoupSocket that affected gupnp. [#594951,
patch from Olivier Crête]
* Fixed the type of the SOUP_METHOD_* and SOUP_URI_SCHEME_*
macros to be const char * rather than gpointer. [#594508]
Changes in libsoup from 2.27.91 to 2.27.92:
* Removed SoupPasswordManager from the public API until its
problems can be addressed. Although it is still present, you
need to #define a special symbol for it to be visible in the
header files; see #594377 for details.
* Fixed a bug where empty query components were dropped from
URIs. [#594405]
* Fixed "make check" to work (but warn) when building with
--disable-ssl.
* Fixed some small documentation bugs pointed out by Dominik
Bylica and Lucian Langa.
Changes in libsoup from 2.27.90 to 2.27.91:
* Added SoupPasswordManager, an interface for managing
persistent password storage, and SoupPasswordManagerGNOME
(in libsoup-gnome), which implements it using gnome-keyring.
tests/get.c provides a minimal example of how to use it.
* libsoup should now notice when the server closes a
persistent connection, and close its side of the connection
sooner. This should hopefully fix the spurious "Connection
terminated unexpectedly" errors in WebKitGTK. [#578990]
* Fixed some problems with connection management in
SoupSession that could cause a session to eventually "stall"
and be unable to process new requests. [#592084]
* Fixed an infinite loop that caused 100% CPU usage if the
network went down at exactly the right time while there were
unsent messages in the queue. [#592492]
* Fixed a crash in SoupLogger. [#591857]
* Fixed the definition of soup_message_is_keepalive() for
HTTP/1.0 messages, to fix a problem introduced in 2.27.90
where some messages would load completely but never emit
"finished".
* Fixed a crash in SoupServer introduced in 2.27.90 when
processing a request with no "Host" header.
Changes in libsoup from 2.27.5 to 2.27.90:
* libsoup now uses glib's GResolver rather than its own DNS
code. For 2.27.90, the only visible change should be that
internationalized domain names are now supported. [#548287]
* Added soup_message_disable_feature(), which allows you to
disable particular features (eg, cookies, proxy,
content-sniffing, etc) on a per-message basis. [#574773]
* It is now possible to implement "OPTIONS *" in a SoupServer;
you must explicitly register a handler for "*" in order to
do this. [#590751]
* Ignore Content-Length on EOF-terminated responses, to match
other browsers and therefore cope with broken servers that
send the wrong length. [Patch from Benjamin Otte.]
* Fixed the status code when trying to fetch an https URI with
a non-gnutls build of libsoup. [#590464]
* Fixed strict-aliasing warnings introduced in 2.27.4
[#588771]
* Fixed some warnings noted by fortify [#591226] and -Wextra.
* libsoup now uses automake 1.11's silent-rules support by
default (if you are building with automake 1.11). Use
"./configure --disable-silent-rules" or "make V=1" to
disable.
Changes in libsoup from 2.27.4 to 2.27.5:
* Fixed a crash when a web server redirected a request to a
non-http URI (eg, "about:blank"). [#528882]
* Fixed a hang when trying to create an attachment on certain
bugzilla installations from epiphany. [#584645]
* Fixed verification of V1 TLS certificates [#589323, Patrick
Ohly]
* Fixed compile problems on Windows (in the ssl code), and on
Linux (when the most recent version of gtk-doc was
installed).
Changes in libsoup from 2.27.2 to 2.27.4:
* Added SoupContentSniffer and the "content-sniffed" signal on
SoupMessage, to do Content-Type sniffing per the HTML5 /
draft-abarth-mime-sniff algorithm. [#572589, Gustavo Noronha
Silva]
* Updated the earlier SoupSession timeout fixes ([#574414],
[#578928]) so that async connect() also times out [#588177,
Mark Nauwelaerts] and SSL works on Windows again [#587910,
Fridrich Strba].
* Fixed the behavior on a 301 response to a POST to match
real-world usage rather than what the spec says. (We were
doing the right thing on 302 and 303, but had missed 301.)
[#586692]
* Changed configure so that if GNUTLS isn't found then it
errors out, rather than silently building an SSL-less
libsoup. Configure with --disable-ssl if you actually don't
want SSL. [#584955]
Changes in libsoup from 2.27.1 to 2.27.2:
* Replaced SoupProxyResolver with SoupProxyURIResolver, which
is a bit simpler, works with non-HTTP URIs (and so could be
used by gvfsd-ftp) and supports proxy auth correctly.
[#580051]
* Fixed SoupSession to not try to resolve http server
hostnames when it's just going to pass the hostname off to a
proxy server anyway. This fixes things on hosts that use a
proxy for everything and have no working DNS config
[#577532] and also makes WebKitGTK behave more like other
browsers in terms of per-host connection limits (we now
limit connections based on hostname rather than on IP
address).
We also no longer set the AI_CANONNAME flag when calling
getaddrinfo(), which saves us a little bit of unnecessary
network traffic. [Pointed out by Christophe Gillette on the
mailing list.]
* libsoup now always uses SSL 3.0 (not TLS 1.0 or 1.1) for
https URIs, to work around problems with older servers that
don't implement the (apparently quite confusing) TLS/SSL
compatibility rules correctly. Makes a bunch of
previously-inaccessible sites now accessible in WebKitGTK
(notably PayPal) [#581342]. Will eventually be revisited, to
first try TLS 1.1 and fall back if that fails.
* Fixed Digest auth to (recent) Apple CalDAV servers.
[#583091]
* Changed the way the SoupSession "authenticate" signal works
a bit. We now never emit "authenticate" before sending a
request, even if we know for sure that it's going to fail,
because this makes the semantics of the authenticate handler
too complicated (and because we'll only get into this
situation if a previous call to the authenticate handler
failed anyway). Fixes problems in WebKitGTK when you cancel
a password dialog, and then later try to load the page
again. [#583462, mostly figured out by Gustavo Noronha
Silva].
* Fixed a bug in the CRLF-vs-LF patch (#571283) that caused
libsoup to fail to parse the response headers (returning
SOUP_STATUS_MALFORMED) if a CR LF got split across two
read()s. [#582002]
* Allow using PUT in soup_form_request_for_data(), to work
with certain broken web APIs. [#581860, Ross Burton]. Also,
fixed a problem with empty POST bodies that made some parts
of gmail not work in WebKitGTK.
* Applied some minor bugfixes to configure.in and autogen.sh
[#583911, #583942]. Fixed configure.in to not use gcc
warning options that the installed version of gcc doesn't
recognize [#578851].
* Added G_GNUC_NULL_TERMINATED and G_GNUC_PRINTF to a few
methods that should have had them. [#581754, Ross Burton]
Changes in libsoup from 2.26.1 to 2.27.1:
* SOUP_SESSION_TIMEOUT now works properly with
SoupSessionAsync [#574414] and SSL [#578928]. Added
tests/timeout-test to test this.
* SoupDate fixes:
* soup_date_to_string() now handles SOUP_DATE_RFC2822
[#579055, Enrico Tröger]
* soup_date_new_from_string() now accepts 24:00 as a
time in ISO8601 timestamps
* soup_date_to_string() now coerces the date to UTC
for HTTP and cookie dates, and outputs the UTC
correct offset for the other date types.
* Added regression tests to tests/date
* soup_headers_parse() now completely ignores
syntactically-incorrect headers, rather than passing them to
soup_message_headers_append() and causing a g_warning.
soup_message_headers_append() now also rejects 0-length
header names. Updated tests/header-parsing to check this.
[#579318]
* Fix a crash when cancelling a message from a "restarted"
handler, and updated a regression test to notice the
underlying cause. [#580193]
* Completing the API updates for #576760 from 2.26.1,
soup_message_headers_get() is now marked deprecated in favor
of soup_message_headers_get_one() and _get_list().
Changes in libsoup from 2.26.0 to 2.26.1:
* libsoup uses libproxy for PAC and WPAD proxy resolution
again. However, it arranges to do all communication with
GConf itself, to ensure that libproxy doesn't call it in
non-thread-safe ways. [#571527] Also, fixed a bug in
SoupSessionSync when proxy resolution failed. [#574957,
patch from Milan Crha].
(Also fixed three SoupProxyResolverGNOME bugs since the
2.26.0.9 preview release. [#578746, #578809])
* SoupURI now handles unencoded spaces in URIs. In particular,
redirects via Location headers with spaces in them now work.
[#566530]
* libsoup can now deal with servers (and clients) that
erroneously use LF LF instead of CR LF CR LF to separate
the headers and body. [#571283]
* Added soup_message_headers_get_one() and
soup_message_headers_get_list(), which will eventually
deprecate soup_message_headers_get(). This lets applications
deal correctly with implementations that erroneously send
multiple copies of single-valued headers. [#576760]
* In particular, soup_message_headers_get_content_type() now
ignores duplicate Content-Type headers [#576760] and also
ignores syntactically-incorrect Content-Type headers.
[#577630]
* SoupCookieJar can now store multiple cookies with the same
domain and name, but different paths. [#577360]
* Abnormal SSL connection closes are now treated as ordinary
EOFs, for compatibility with certain sites. [#577386]
* soup_header_g_string_append_param() now allows NULL values.
[#577728]
* soup_message_headers_append() now rejects header names and
values with newlines or certain other illegal data in them,
rather than generating syntactically invalid headers.
* Fixed a small bug in soup_date_new_from_string's ISO 8601
handling [qv #578369 for g_time_val_from_iso8601].
* The regression tests now work correctly on machines where
"localhost" resolves to "::1" instead of "127.0.0.1".
[#576583, patch from Andreas Rottmann]
* Fixed warnings when a message has a network problem when
many other messages are queued. [#578809]
* Miscellaneous documentation fixes/clarifications.
Changes in libsoup from 2.25.91 to 2.26.0:
* Temporarily disable libproxy support to work around a bug in
its gnome plugin that causes gvfsd-http (and probably
eventually other apps) to crash. [#571527]. For now,
SoupProxyResolverGNOME uses only GConf. To be fixed in
2.26.1
* Fixed a bug that showed up in WebKit, where if many messages
were queued all at once to a server that doesn't support
persistent connections, some of the requests will get lost.
#574365, reported by Xan Lopez.
* Fixed SoupServer to support using SOUP_ENCODING_EOF, so you
can stream responses of unknown length to HTTP/1.0 clients.
[#572153]. Added a regression test for this, and for chunked
and Content-Length-based streaming.
* Fixed several bugs that prevented SoupCookieJarSqlite from
working. [#572409, patch from Xan Lopez]
* Added G_{BEGIN,END}_DECLS guards to public headers that were
missing it. (Xan Lopez)
* Misc gtk-doc improvements
Changes in libsoup from 2.25.5 to 2.25.91:
* Fixed a crash in SoupProxyResolverGNOME when the proxy
requires authentication. (This does not make proxy
authentication *work* yet, it just makes it not crash.)
* Updated documentation
Changes in libsoup from 2.25.4 to 2.25.5:
* SoupProxyResolverGConf (which was incomplete) is gone, and
libsoup-gnome now requires libproxy, which is now officially
an external dependency of GNOME.
* Fixed a bug in SoupCookieJar that was making it send
"Cookie: (null)" when it had no cookies for a site, which
confused some web servers (WebKit bug 23240).
* Fixed a bug with using SOUP_MEMORY_TEMPORARY buffers and
soup_message_body_set_accumulate(FALSE). (Part of WebKit bug
18343, noticed by Gustavo Noronha Silva.)
* Fixed the build with non-gcc compilers
Changes in libsoup from 2.25.3 to 2.25.4:
* Added soup_session_get_feature() and
soup_session_get_features(), to query the features currently
available in a session (which is needed by the patch in
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22624)
Changes in libsoup from 2.25.2 to 2.25.3:
* Fixed a crash when using both cookies and a proxy. [#562191,
Mark Lee]
* Fixed soup_form_decode() to correctly handle forms with
URI-encoded parameter names [#563302, Evan Nemerson] and
added a regression test.
* Fixed a crash in SoupProxyResolverGConf. [#563145]
Changes in libsoup from 2.25.1 to 2.25.2:
* Fixed client behavior when presented with multiple auth
types to choose the *strongest* auth type (eg, Digest)
rather than the *weakest* one [#562339, Pontus Oldberg].
Added a regression test for this.
* Moved libsoup-gnome headers to a different directory to make
it easier to split libsoup and libsoup-gnome into separate
packages, and to ensure that things that only want to be
looking at plain libsoup headers (like gir-repository) don't
accidentally see the libsoup-gnome ones.
* Some minor doc fixes
* Fixed libsoup-gnome linking with --as-needed. [#559342]
Changes in libsoup from 2.24.1 to 2.25.1:
libsoup 2.25.1 introduces a new library, libsoup-gnome, which
will be used for features which are important to GNOME apps,
but which require GNOME-specific libraries that non-GNOME apps
may not want to add dependencies on.
In 2.25.1, libsoup-gnome contains:
* SOUP_TYPE_PROXY_RESOLVER_GNOME, a SoupSessionFeature
type that can be added to a SoupSession to provide
automatic proxy handling via the GConf proxy keys. (See
below) The default implementation uses libproxy, which
also handles WPAD, PAC, etc, but if libproxy is not
available it will use GConf directly, supporting only
the basic HTTP proxy functionality.
* SoupCookieJarSqlite, a SoupSessionFeature that handles
cookies and stores them in a Firefox 3-compatible sqlite
file. (This is not actually a "GNOME-specific" feature,
but I didn't want to make libsoup itself depend on
sqlite, and I didn't want to make the dependency
optional. This might change before 2.26.)
* SOUP_TYPE_GNOME_FEATURES_2_26: a SoupSessionFeature type
that can be added to a SoupSession to add all
GNOME-integration features that are available for 2.26;
as of 2.25.1, this is just the GNOME proxy resolver, but
by 2.26.0 it may also include gnome-keyring support and
possibly other features.
Applications/libraries that are currently doing GConf proxy
lookup by hand can be updated as follows:
* Remove all of the existing code that listens to the
GConf keys and sets SOUP_SESSION_PROXY_URI
* Change the configure check to require
"libsoup-gnome-2.4 >= 2.25.1" instead of "libsoup-2.4"
* #include <libsoup/soup-gnome.h>
* After creating your SoupSession, do:
soup_session_add_feature_by_type (session, SOUP_TYPE_PROXY_RESOLVER_GNOME);
(Or alternatively, use SOUP_SESSION_ADD_FEATURE_BY_TYPE
with soup_session_async_new_with_options() or
soup_session_sync_new_with_options().)
Other new features and bug fixes in 2.25.1 include:
* SoupCookieJarText, like SoupCookieJarSqlite, but using the
old-style cookies.txt format, and in the base libsoup rather
than libsoup-gnome.
* Various bugfixes to SoupCookie and SoupCookieJar to fix the
problems with cookies not working on certain sites.
* The new SoupMultipart type provides support for multipart
MIME bodies, and soup-form now includes several methods for
generating and parsing multipart form data and file uploads.
* SoupMessageHeaders now has methods for easy handling of the
Content-Type, Content-Disposition, Range, and Content-Range
headers. The Content-Disposition handling recognizes
RFC2231-encoded UTF-8 filenames.
* SoupServer now automatically handles partial GET requests;
if your server returns SOUP_STATUS_OK in response to a
partial GET, libsoup will automatically convert it to a
SOUP_STATUS_PARTIAL_CONTENT response with only the requested
portions.
Thanks to Xan Lopez and Diego Escalante Urrelo for their work
on SoupCookie, SoupCookieJar, SoupCookieJarText, and
SoupCookieJarSqlite.
Changes in libsoup from 2.24.0.1 to 2.24.1:
* Fixed a crash when unreffing the session from a
soup_session_queue_message() callback [#533473], and added
regression test. In particular, this fixes a crash in
seahorse when trying to connect to a non-responsive
keyserver.
* Fixed an infinite loop when giving a bad password to a site
that uses non-standard capitalization in the
WWW-Authenticate header (eg, gmail.com) [#536285].
* Fixed a leak in SoupSessionAsync when using a non-default
GMainContext. [addendum to #498509, Arnout Vandecappelle]
Added additional code to the regression tests to make sure
sessions and servers do not get leaked.
* Fixed a leak in the XML-RPC code
* Compile fixes for "gcc -pedantic" [#553976, Sander Dijkhuis]
and -DG_DISABLE_DEPRECATED / -DG_DISABLE_SINGLE_INCLUDES
[#557072, Cosimo Cecchi]
* Patched xmlrpc-test to accept the incorrect response to
test_echo() that php-xmlrpc gives when it's built against
libxml2 >= 2.7.1 (qv http://bugs.php.net/45996), so that
I can "make distcheck"...
* Updated generated documentation
Changes in libsoup from 2.23.92 to 2.24.0.1:
* Reverted part of the fix for #528882, which caused the DAAP
plugin in rhythmbox to crash. [#553466]
Changes in libsoup from 2.23.91 to 2.23.92:
* Fixed the handling of a 302 response to a HEAD request,
which should NOT be treated like a 303 response. [#551190,
Jonathan Matthew]
Changes in libsoup from 2.23.6 to 2.23.91:
* Fixed a crash in gvfs [#528882], though there is still an
unknown bug there. As part of this fix, libsoup will now
return an error if you try to do an operation on a non-HTTP
URI. (Previously it was just treating any URI scheme except
"https" as HTTP.)
* Added soup_date_to_timeval() for gvfs. [#549006, patch from
Bastien Nocera]
Changes in libsoup from 2.23.1 to 2.23.6:
* Fixed use of g_idle_add() so that heavy I/O won't end up
blocking libsoup callbacks. [#536676, Benjamin Otte]
* Allow the caller to override the Host header. [#539803, Marc
Maurer]
* Properly handle responses larger than 4G. [#539861, Peter
Christensen]
* Fixed the build when using certain LDFLAGS [#541506, Götz
Waschk]
* Fixed a small bug in Digest auth handling. [#544681, Mads
Chr. Olesen]
* Fixed multiple Windows bugs [Tor Lillqvist]
Changes in libsoup from 2.4.1 to 2.23.1:
* This is the first unstable release leading up to GNOME 2.24.
Bumped the libsoup version number up to 2.23.x to match the
GNOME version; note that the API version is still "2.4",
meaning in particular that you still call it "libsoup-2.4"
when using pkg-config.
* Added SoupSessionFeature, an interface type that will be
used for several new features. Ported SoupLogger and
SoupAuthManager to use it.
* Added SoupCookie and SoupCookieJar. This API is already
being used in Epiphany, via WebKit, but it is not yet
complete.
* Fixed GnuTLS support on Win32. [#528752, Marc Maurer]
Changes in libsoup from 2.4.0 to 2.4.1:
* Fixed SoupMessage to not downgrade to HTTP/1.0 for the
second attempt when it receives an HTTP/1.0 redirect or 401.
[#521848, Tommu Komulainen]
* Fixed Host: header syntax when the host is an IPv6 address
literal.
* Fixed SoupSession to not emit "authenticate" multiple times
for messages that have been requeued. [#522601, Tommi
Komulainen]. Also added two new signals to SoupSession,
request-queued and request-unqueued, to help simplify
certain session-helpers and avoid bugs like this in the
future.
* Fixed soup_server_pause_message() to actually work (rather
than *un*pausing the message).
* Added a property SOUP_SESSION_IDLE_TIMEOUT that can be used
to set a timeout after which idle connections will
automatically be closed. [#518214, Jorn Baayen]
* Implemented RFC 2069-style Digest auth, and fixed SoupAuth
to compare auth scheme names case-insensitively, to fix
authentication against Apple's calendar server. [#498484]
* Fixed a crash in SoupAuthDomainDigest if the client provided
an unrecognized username. [pointed out by Curtis Magyar on
IRC]
* Fixed a few SoupDate bugs. (In particular, it was outputting
the wrong day of the week when stringifying dates.)
* Improved the cleanup of idle connections, to fix slow load
times with the libsoup backend of WebKit.
* Added a new SoupMessage signal "wrote-body-data" that can be
used for progress information when sending a large request
body. Also allow providing the request body in multiple
chunks even when using Content-Length encoding. [#525101,
Christian Kellner]
* libsoup now ignores SIGPIPE globally, instead of
un-thread-safe-ly ignoring it only around network writes. In
particular, this means it is ignored when the SSL code needs
to unexpectedly do a write when we asked it to do a read.
[#524397, Curtis Magyar]
* The discard-body-chunks-once-they're-no-longer-needed
behavior, confusingly called SOUP_MESSAGE_OVERWRITE_CHUNKS,
is now controlled by a SoupMessageBody method
(soup_message_body_set_accumulate()), and can be applied to
either the request body or the response body.
(OVERWRITE_CHUNKS is still available for backward
compatibility.) [#522146, Christian Kellner]
* The DNS cache no longer caches "no such host" results, since
some name servers lie to clients outside their firewall,
which could then cause problems for laptops moved between
networks. [#523269, Jörgen Scheibengruber]
* Added some new regression tests, fixed some small bugs in
the existing ones.
Changes in libsoup from 2.3.4 to 2.4.0:
* Fixed a small memory leak in SoupSession. [#518798, Wouter
Cloetens]
* Minor fixes to redirect behavior; PROPFINDs can now be
automatically redirected (pointed out by Christian Kellner),
and 302 is treated like 307, not 303. Also fixed to make
sure that redirect-test actually gets run by "make check".
* The SoupSocket I/O methods now set nread/nwrote even on
error. [Benjamin Otte]
Changes in libsoup from 2.3.2 to 2.3.4:
* The documentation should be accessible from devhelp again
[#518384, Mart Raudsepp]. (Also fixed another
documentation-generation bug that affected builds from svn,
but not the 2.3.2 tarball for some reason. [#518317,
Benjamin Otte].)
* Fixed dependencies in libsoup-2.4.pc file [#517631,
Sebastian Dröge]
Changes in libsoup from 2.3.0.1 to 2.3.2:
API changes / Behavior changes:
* soup_server_add_auth_domain() now refs the auth domain when
adding it. (soup_server_remove_auth_domain() already
unreffed it.) This means existing applications using
SoupAuthDomain will now have a small memory leak. Those
applications should update their libsoup-2.4 requirement to
">= 2.3.2" at some point before the final GNOME 2.22.0
release, and then fix the code to unref the auth domain
after adding it to the server.
* SoupSession's automatic redirect-handling behavior now obeys
RFC 2616 more closely. In particular, status codes 300 and
304 are no longer mistakenly considered redirects; POSTs
that receive 303 are now redirected into GETs; and POSTs
that receive 301, 302, or 307 are now not redirected.
Applications that were using the SOUP_MESSAGE_NO_REDIRECT
flag to prevent libsoup from redirecting POSTs incorrectly
before should now be able to remove that if they depend on
libsoup-2.4 >= 2.3.2.
API additions:
* Added a SOUP_SESSION_USER_AGENT property to SoupSession, and
SOUP_SERVER_SERVER_HEADER to SoupServer, to support
automatically adding "User-Agent" and "Server" headers to
messages. (The default behavior is to do nothing, as
before.)
* Added several new methods to soup-forms.h. Applications that
are encoding a fixed set of form fields can now just pass
them to soup_form_encode(), rather than needing to construct
a GHashTable or GData list. (Likewise, the new
soup_uri_set_query_from_fields() behaves similarly for
directly updating a URI with form data.) There are also now
soup_form_request_new() and other related methods, to
directly create a GET or POST SoupMessage for submitting a
form query.
The original soup_form_* methods have all been renamed,
although #defines exist for backward compatibility.
* Added soup_message_set_chunk_allocator() and
soup_buffer_new_with_owner(), to give applications more
control over memory usage/copying when doing streaming HTTP.
[Wouter Cloetens, #513810].
* Added several new methods to soup-value-utils.h for working
with multiple array or hash table values at once:
soup_value_hash_new_with_vals(),
soup_value_hash_insert_vals(),
soup_value_hash_lookup_vals(),
soup_value_array_new_with_vals(), and
soup_value_array_append_vals().
This helps to simplify XML-RPC calls that send or receive
structs or arrays.
* Added soup_date_to_time_t().
* Added SoupMessageHeadersIterator, an iterator type for
SoupMessageHeaders that can be used instead of
soup_message_headers_foreach().
Bug fixes:
* Fixed a crash-when-idle in evolution-exchange [#437835] and
rhythmbox [#506552].
* Added the API version to the gtk-doc installation dir, to
prevent parallel-installation problems with libsoup 2.2 and
2.4. [#512810, Daniel Gryniewicz].
* Fixed tests/query-test to compile correctly on Solaris.
[#513602, patch from Jeff Cai]
* Fixed some other minor HTTP conformance issues.
Python bindings:
* Although not present in the release tarball, there are now
experimental python bindings for libsoup in GNOME subversion
(in the python/ subdirectory of libsoup trunk). These are
not yet stable (and are not built by default or installed
even when building from svn), but comments on them are
welcome at libsoup-list@gnome.org
Changes in libsoup from the 2.2 series to 2.3.0.1:
libsoup 2.3.0 is the first beta release of the libsoup 2.4
series. It is an API break from the earlier 2.2 series that
fixes various bugs and API warts and lays the groundwork for
language bindings and various new features in upcoming
releases.
(2.3.0.1 is identical to the 2.3.0 release in terms of code,
but includes this updated NEWS file which was accidentally
left out of the 2.3.0 tarball.)
http://library.gnome.org/devel/libsoup/unstable/libsoup-porting-2.2-2.4.html
goes over the API changes in detail. If you have questions not
answered by the porting document, please send mail to
libsoup-list@gnome.org.
Specific user-reported bugs fixed in this release:
* SoupURI now correctly handles URIs with complex encoded
queries [#266516, Jean-Yves Lefort]
* It is now possible for a SoupServer to use Digest auth
without needing to have the cleartext password available.
[#347108, Anas Nashif]
* Digest authentication now properly handles "stale=true" and
"nextnonce=..." [#471380, Jari Urpalainen]
* SoupServer is now subclassible [#491653, Mathias Hasselmann]
* soup_server_run_async and soup_server_quit no longer ref and
unref the server, as that doesn't match ordinary GObject
conventions [#494128, Mathias Hasselmann]
* The test programs no longer use a symbol name that conflicts
with Cygwin [#501631, Cygwin Ports Maintainer]
* libsoup can now handle the not-quite-HTTP responses returned
by Shoutcast servers [#502325, Wouter Cloetens]
* If you use libsoup while disconnected from the network, it
no longer caches the failed DNS results [#508593, Bradley
Worley]
Items from http://live.gnome.org/LibSoup/ToDo fixed:
* "Expect: 100-continue" processing now works correctly on
both client and server.
* SoupSessions are no longer leaked
* The XML-RPC API is improved. The SOAP API is gone...
* Added utility functions for HTML form handling
* Improved message header handling
* SoupServer now automatically adds a "Date" header
==========
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.103 to 2.2.104:
* soup_message_io_pause() and soup_message_io_pause() are now
allowed for client messages (and in particular, they don't
mess up when called from the "got_chunk" callback).
[#452280, Marco Barisione]
* Fixed some bugs in SOUP_SESSION_ASYNC_CONTEXT support that
would cause parts of an operation to run in the default
context rather than the session's context. Also fixed some
leaks and added a regression test. [#498509, Wouter
Cloetens]
* There is a new test/sample program, tests/pull-api.c,
showing how to implement a pull API using SoupSessionAsync.
(This depends on the fixes for #452280 and #498509, so it
won't work with older versions of libsoup.)
* Discovered "valgrind --leak-resolution=med" and fixed some
more memory leaks.
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.102 to 2.2.103:
* Fix memory corruption in SoupSessionAsync that caused
rhythmbox to crash. [#484988, patch from Rob Bradford]
* Fix socket refcounting in SoupServer to fix warnings /
possible crash. [#459896, Emanuele Aina]
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.101 to 2.2.102:
* Unbreak the build when building without SSL. Not that you
should be building without SSL anyway, but... (reported by
guenther).
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.100 to 2.2.101:
* Fix build on cygwin [384498]
* Fix SSL rehandshaking on synchronous sockets [415402, Jacob
Berkman] and add a regression test for it.
* Fix two bugs in https tunnels over proxies that require
authentication (noticed by Varadhan), and add a regression
test for them.
* Ensure that if you queue multiple messages at once to an
http server that requires authentication but that you
haven't authenticated to yet, that all of the messages get
properly authenticated [271540, James Willcox]. And add a
regression test for it.
* Fix NTLM authentication, which got broken by the previous
fix. [471389, Varadhan]. Add a basic NTLM regression test
that doesn't really test the crypto/encoding parts, but at
least makes sure that the message flow is correct.
* Allow trailing whitespace after HTTP version in
Response-Line, for compatibility with broken servers
[475169, Stephane Loeuillet]. Add that case to the
header-parsing regression test.
* Fix crash when the session's "authenticate" handler returns
a username and no password when using NTLM. [480987, Wendell
MacKenzie]
* Use "new" glib base64 and iso8601 methods rather than
duplicating them. [337010, patch from Emmanuele Bassi].
* Implement soup_session_queue_message() for SoupSessionSync.
* Add G_BEGIN_DECLS / G_END_DECLS to all headers that were
missing them. [438776, patch from Jonathon Jongsma].
* Fix broken definition of SOUP_IS_MESSAGE_FILTER_CLASS. Noted
by "cascardo" on libsoup-list.
* Remove documentation of non-public MD5 methods [440092,
Jonathon Jongsma]. Removed a mysterious half-sentence in the
SoupMessage docs [458116, Marco Barisione].
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.99 to 2.2.100:
* Fixed soup_headers_parse_status_line() so WebDAV response
parsing will work again. [406997]
* Fixed a bug in the header-parsing regression test that
caused the test to fail sometimes, even though the actual
header-parsing code was fine.
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.98 to 2.2.99:
* Fixed header parsing, including a crash in SoupServer with
certain malformed requests [391970].
* Fixed redirection to other hosts with SoupSessionAsync.
[382251]
* Fixed a small memory leak pointed out by Chris Austin.
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.97 to 2.2.98:
* The XML-RPC code now correctly interprets <value>foo</value>
as meaning the same thing as
<value><string>foo</string></value>. [364490] Pointed out by
Todd Kulesza.
* Memory leak fixes from Andrew W. Nosenko.
* A few symbols that should have been static before now are.
[376387] Patch from Matthias Clasen.
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.96 to 2.2.97:
* Fixed SOAP and XML-RPC code to handle whitespace and
comments in the XML better. (Based on a patch from Andrew W.
Nosenko.)
* Fixed lots of typecasting/constness warnings in the code
(mostly via a patch from Andrew W. Nosenko)
* Fixed build on Cygwin [321827]
* Fixed libsoup-2.2.pc fields [343340] and make it get
uninstalled correctly [356809]. (Mikhail Zabaluev and
Matthew Barnes)
* Fixed some small leaks in SoupServer pointed out by Paolo
Borelli. [351500]
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.95.1 to 2.2.96:
* SoupServer now works even if you don't explicitly set an
encoding for the response. (In particular, the automatic 404
if you request a path with no handlers now works. Problem
pointed out by Dennis Jacobfeuerborn.)
* WWW-Authenticate and Proxy-Authenticate responses with no
realm parameter are now ignored, as per RFC 2617, fixing a
crash pointed out by Nate Nielsen.
* Added soup_xmlrpc_message_from_string(), from Fernando
Herrera [348532].
* simple-httpd and "get" now support HEAD
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.94 to 2.2.95.1:
* Even more fixes to XML-RPC, found by the new XML-RPC
regression test. This includes some API changes that I don't
feel guilty about, because the code totally didn't work at
all before.
* Fixed a bug in soup_mktime_utc()
* (2.2.95 was identical to 2.2.95.1. The only difference is
that the shared library version was belatedly bumped from
8.2.0 to 8.3.0 to reflect the API "additions")
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.93 to 2.2.94:
* Various fixes to the XML-RPC code (which apparently had not
actually ever worked before) from Brent Smith. [343973,
344222, 344458]
* Added client and server API tutorials to the docs
* auth-test now uses a local Apache 2.2 install, if possible,
rather than depending on files that used to be on an old
Ximian web server but haven't been anywhere for a long time.
[311825]
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.92 to 2.2.93:
* Fixed outgoing data corruption caused when SoupServer
started writing out a response a second time after already
having started once. [334469]. Also fixed 342640 and another
bug caused by the workaround for 334469 in 2.2.92. Based on
patches and analysis from William Jon McCann and Armin
Bauer.
* Fixed a deadlock when changing a session's proxy URI.
[309867 / bnc 174255, based on a patch by Veerapuram
Varadhan].
* Fixed https-via-proxies in the synchronous case. [bnc 174255]
* Fixed a crash in evolution-exchange [342545, fix based on an
analysis by Wang Xin].
* Fixed simple-proxy to not crash at startup. Oops. (Alex
Larsson)
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.91 to 2.2.92:
* Fixed server-side digest auth to return a valid "algorithm"
value and client-side to not crash if it sees an invalid one
[328615].
* Fixed the Request-Line parsing code to not hardcode a
maximum URI length (to allow very long DAAP requests from
iTunes in Rhythmbox). [335040]
* Fixed some warnings (signed/unsigned mismatch).
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.7 to 2.2.91:
* (The large version number bump is because there was an
internal 2.2.90 release for SUSE 10.1 alphas, which was
supposed to be intermediate between 2.2.7 and 2.4.0. But
2.4.0 didn't end up happening, and I don't want to regress
the version number at this point.)
* SoupSession, SoupServer, SoupConnection, SoupSocket, and
SoupAddress now have an "async-context" property that allows
you to use the async API in a non-default GMainContext.
[Based on patches from Armin Bauer and Jürg Billeter.]
* SoupSession, SoupConnection, and SoupSocket now have a
"timeout" property to stop synchronous sockets from hanging
forever if the remote end is unresponsive (from Varadhan).
* Fixed some bugs in soup_date_iso8601_parse(). [324671, from
Emmanuele Bassi]
* More Windows build fixes from Tor.
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.6.1 to 2.2.7:
* Fixed a crash when using NTLM connections [316313, probably
also 318252]. (Also 321208, which was a bug introduced in
the original fix for 316313.)
* Fixed a bug that could cause soup to suck up all available
CPU when a connection to a SoupServer was dropped by the
other side [319305, patch from Jonathan Matthew]
* Fixed the creation of struct elements in XMLRPC messages
[321362, patch from Sebastian Bauer]
* Plugged a small memory leak in SoupSocket (from Wang Xin).
* Fixed two compile problems, a gccism [320349, patch from
Roland Illig], and a strict-aliasing warning from gcc 4.1.
Changes in libsoup from 2.2.6 to 2.2.6.1:
* Fixed a crash when using SoupSoapMessage
Changes from 2.2.5 to 2.2.6:
* Fixed a crash when canceling a message (from Tambet Ingo)
* Fixed a bug where a connection could be leaked forever in
some circumstances if a request got a 30x, 401, or 407
response, eventually causing a hang when the session hit its
maximum connection limit. (Dan/Tambet)
* Fixed a memory leak. (Tambet)
* Fixed a bug that would sometimes show up when connecting to
a server on localhost [#312540]
* Added some API to SoupServer and SoupSocket to help fix a
long-standing rcd bug.
Changes from 2.2.4 to 2.2.5:
* Win32 support (from Tor Lillqvist)
* Up-to-date API documentation pretty much everywhere
* Basic XMLRPC support (from Mariano Suarez-Alvarez, Fernando
Herrera, and Jeff Bailey)
* New HTTP timestamp-manipulation methods soup_date_parse,
soup_date_generate, and soup_date_iso8601_parse.
* SoupSession now handles relative URLs in the Location header
(in violation of RFC 2616, but in line with how some servers
behave.) [270688]
Changes from 2.2.3 to 2.2.4:
* Fixed a problem with NTLM authentication against
multi-domain servers. [306877]
* Fixed DNS lookups on Solaris. [254551, 268389]
Changes from 2.2.2 to 2.2.3:
* Now compiles against gnutls 1.2.0 [257811]
* Fixed a bug that could result in 100% CPU usage if an SSL
server closed the connection uncleanly. [273352]
Changes from 2.2.1 to 2.2.2:
* The SSL validation fix from 2.2.1 [264414] is now completely
fixed. (Part of the fix didn't actually make it into 2.2.1)
* HTTPS certificate validation now works when using an HTTP
proxy. [268583]
* HTTP proxy code deals better with proxies that try to make
the user do HTML-form-based authentication. [268531]
* 64-bit fixes for NTLM auth code. [270323, from Michael
Zucchi]
Changes from 2.2.0 to 2.2.1:
* Updated for a libgcrypt API change between 1.1.9x and 1.2.x
that caused a crash at runtime if you compiled against
1.2.x. [266342]
* SSL certificate validation failure should now always result
in a status of SOUP_STATUS_SSL_FAILED, rather than getting
turned into SOUP_STATUS_IO_ERROR. [264414]
Changes in libsoup from the 2.0 series (1.99.x versions) to 2.2:
* Most of the libsoup datatypes are now GObjects. (SoupUri
is currently an exception to this.)
* SoupMessage now emits signals at various stages of
processing. (Eg, "wrote_body", "got_headers".) (You
can also still use soup_message_add_*handler().)
* SoupContexts are gone; soup_message_new() now takes a URI
string.
* All formerly global state is now maintained by the
SoupSession object. (This includes the connection pool,
proxy server, cached authentication information, SSL
certificates, etc.)
* You can create a SoupSessionAsync (for 2.0-like
behavior) or SoupSessionSync (for blocking,
synchronous usage).
* You can add SoupMessageFilter objects to a session
to have certain processing automatically performed
on every message sent via that session. (Eg, setting
up handlers.)
* NTLM authentication is no longer supported by
default. You must enable it by setting the
SOUP_SESSION_USE_NTLM flag on the session.
* The preferred method of handling authentication is
now via the "authenticate" and "reauthenticate"
signals on SoupSession. (The old style, of encoding
the user and password information into the url is
also still supported.)
* The SOUP_ERROR_* values are now SOUP_STATUS_* (so that we
don't have "SOUP_ERROR_OK" and the like).
* SOUP_MESSAGE_IS_ERROR() is gone, since some cases
want to include 3xx responses and some don't.
* SOUP_ERROR_CANT_AUTHENTICATE and
SOUP_ERROR_CANT_AUTHENTICATE_PROXY are now gone,
since they didn't carry any information that
SOUP_STATUS_UNAUTHORIZED and
SOUP_STATUS_PROXY_UNAUTHORIZED don't.
* DNS errors now show up as the new status code
SOUP_STATUS_CANT_RESOLVE rather than being mixed in
with SOUP_ERROR_CANT_CONNECT.
* Minimal SOAP support has been added back, via
SoupSoapMessage/SoupSoapResponse
* The HTTP I/O state machine was completely rewritten, fixing
numerous crashes, leaks, and protocol errors.
* SoupUri now conforms to RFC 2396. Mostly.
* Various test programs have been added under tests/
* Removed:
* Support for OpenSSL (which was horribly buggy) and
Mozilla NSS (which was never finished). We only
support GNUTLS for SSL now.
* SOCKS support
* CGI support in SoupServer
