1 Increase various buffers in GFS's statserv_options_block
2 Change many 'unsigned char *' to 'char *' for ODR-related utilties.
3 This change makes many type-casts redundant, and, thus simplifies code.
5 Remove last bits of WAIS support.
7 Remove member 'size' from Odr_oct.
9 Slim down the public part of 'struct odr'. Most elements are not part
10 of struct Odr_private.
12 Add support for SRU 2.0. Since SRU 2.0 is incompatible with earlier
13 versions of SRU, yaz-client and zoom C are using SRU 1.2 by default.
14 In particular facets are supported in both client - and server side.
15 Facets are also supported for Z39.50 and is carried in additionalSearchInfo
16 of searchRequest/searchResponse with OID 1.2.840.10003.10.1000.81.5 AKA
17 "Facet-1" in oid.csv. The info is defined in facet.asn (which covers
18 both request/response). This is what a search handler in the GFS
19 will see (regardless of whether operating in SRU mode or Z39.50).
21 Changes to the srw.h (SRU/Solr) definitions include:
22 - New element in Z_SRW_searchRetrieveRequest, queryType (char*) and query
23 (char*), which replace union query and query_type (int). This is because
24 SRU 2.0 supports a queryType parameter. This also means that, to carry
25 PQF, in SRU we can now use queryType=pqf and query=PQFstring , rather than
26 x-pquery=PQFstring (extention parameter). The extension parameter
28 - New element, packing, that has information about SRU
29 2.0 recordPacking (not to be confused with SRU 2.0 recordXMLEscaping).
31 New element in Z_SRW_searchRetrieveResponse, resultCountPrecision.
33 New element, packing, in Z_SRW_explainRequest.
35 New elements in Z_SRW_scanRequest, queryType and scanClause.
36 These replace query_type and scanClase untion. This is similar to what
41 GFS: log when closing down - at least SIGTERM YAZ-684
42 Also change formatting WRT PID logging a bit.
44 Improve display of MARC records with multi-byte subfield IDs YAZ-695
45 In some rare cases subfield identifiers are multi-byte characters.
46 This will try to deterime length of those and split accordingly.
47 This affects display in line mode as MARCXML/MarcXchange. The encoding
48 of ISO2709 is the same.
50 Change inp argument to const for yaz_read_UTF8_char.
52 yaz-marcdump: fix leaks for MARCXML parsing. YAZ-694
54 MARCXML parsing: avoid skipping 1st field if no leader. YAZ-693
56 Better check of marc leader info YAZ-691
57 Problem is that some systems generate MARCXML/MarcXchange with
58 funny headers. These will not work if encoded as ISO2709.
59 Some tests produce new output, due to updated warning messages
61 cql2pqf: allow PQF queries from stdin (because CQL is also allowed)
63 yaz-client: display MAB records YAZ-689.
64 Thanks for Heiko Jansen for this patch.
66 New utility z_get_HTTP_Response_server which allows both HTTP server name
67 and HTTP server URL to be given in response.
69 Debian: do not depend on obs tcl8.3.
71 Debian: do not depend on obs libicu36-dev.
75 GFS: pass additionalSearchInfo to search memeber search_input if
76 given. Otherwise pass otherInfo. Request for facets and other search
77 related things will be passed there in future versions of YAZ.
79 New ZOOM setting, authenticationMode, which allows authentication
80 paramters to be encoded in the URL rather than via HTTP Basic auth.
83 rpn2solr: fix nested AND/OR handling. YAZ-685
85 Add comparison routines for some Z-types, such as NamePlusRecord,
86 RPNQuery, Query, RecordComposition and OtherInformation.
90 Don't decode MAB as MARC. Just like we don't attempt to decode
91 HTML/XML as MARC. Fixes MAB display problem that was introduced in 4.2.64.
93 CCL: allow quoted terms for date ranges. YAZ-681
95 Introduce ccl_parser_qual_search. This function makes old function
96 ccl_qual_search, from YAZ 2, available again.
98 Add yaz_facet_list_to_wrbuf. YAZ-683
100 --- 4.2.66 2013/09/11
102 ZOOM: fix record handling for Solr. ZOOM_record_get would return 0, if
103 schema was given for search. YAZ-675
105 Add Solr date range searches. YAZ-621
107 --- 4.2.65 2013/08/22
109 ZOOM: another fix for record caching (introduced in YAZ 4.2.64).
111 --- 4.2.64 2013/08/21 (Broken WRT ZOOM C, do not use)
113 ISO2709/MARC parse most octet aligned records; not just those that
114 are known to be ISO2709/MARC. This makes ZOOM and yaz-client
115 MARC parse more records instead of just dumping as is. YAZ-670
117 ZOOM: proper caching for variations of record schema. YAZ-671
119 Solr: Check for enging / and perhaps commands (select/term) YAZ-651
121 --- 4.2.63 2013/07/17
125 --- 4.2.62 2013/07/11
127 New utility z_get_HTTP_Response_details - an extended version of
130 New utility yaz_url_get_error which returns error message of last
131 failed yaz_url_exec call.
133 yaz-url and url functions: allow max HTTP redirects to be controlled.
135 New functions yaz_file_glob2, yaz_xml_include_glob.
136 These functions takes a flags parameter, which, for now only controls
137 whether to fail inclusion of a non-existing file (without glob
138 pattern) - flags YAZ_FILE_GLOB_FAIL_NOTEXIST.
140 --- 4.2.61 2013/06/20
142 For MARC XML parsing, allow record without leader. A fake/default leader
143 is inserted and a warning is tagged with the record.
145 ICU: fix leak in in icu_iter_get_org_info.
147 --- 4.2.60 2013/06/14
149 ICU: fix bug in icu_iter_get_org_info (un-init variable).
151 --- 4.2.59 2013/06/11
153 Implement z_HTTP_header_remove.
155 --- 4.2.58 2013/06/11
157 ICU: Disallow 0 ptrs for some ICU string utilities.
159 ICU: new utilities icu_iter_get_org_info and icu_chain_get_org_info:
160 returns original tokens (before normalization).
162 CCL: avoid z39.58/regex truncation when not needed. Apply only the
163 conversion of those masks, when absolutely necessary.
165 CCL: configurable masking character - @mask. Default masking character
168 HTTP encoding: remove Transfer-Encoding header. YAZ uses content_len and
169 full response anyway, so a Transfer-Encoding header will obstruct the
172 --- 4.2.57 2013/05/15
174 COMSTACK: @ uses AF_UNSPEC . But we prefer AF_INET6 over others when
175 picking a socket. Problem is that some systems has IPV6 support, but
176 we can't create sockets for them, so we pick AF_UNSPEC first.
178 HTTP encode. Proper Content-Length YAZ-660. For yaz_encode_http_response
179 use content_len to determine resulting Content-Length in HTTP response
180 and NOT Content-Length supplied in headers by user.
182 z_HTTP_header_add_basic_auth uses z_HTTP_header_set rather than
183 z_HTTP_header_add, to avoid having two Authorization headers by mistake.
185 Fix problem with HTTP decoding. For HTTP 1XX, 204, 304 assume no
188 Fix yaz_base64decode to use proper signed. Problem occurred on platforms
189 with big endian and unsigned char (by default).
191 --- 4.2.56 2013/04/26
193 Fix yaz-client connect (crash in 4.2.55).
195 --- 4.2.55 2013/04/26
197 Fix proxy/host problem for ZOOM that could occur if unix sockets
200 New Debian package libyaz4-dbg.
202 Fix problem with cs_close hang/wait in SSL mode. Invoke gnutls_bye
203 differently in tcpip_close.
205 --- 4.2.54 2013/04/17
207 Windows installer of YAZ includes YAZ4J as a component.
209 CQL: allow "extra terms" again, by default. Thus, the CQL parser
210 accepts a superset the standard. This reverts to CQL as of YAZ 4.2.51
211 and earlier. CQL parser may operate in strict mode where queries
212 not conforming to the standard BNF are rejected (syntax error).
213 Whether the CQL parser operates in strict mode is controlled with
214 cql_parser_strict . Strict mode enabled with option -S for utilities
215 cql2pqf and cql2xcql .
217 yaz-ztest: returns OPACXML records for syntax=XML and element set=OP.
219 --- 4.2.53 2013/04/10
221 New charset, MARC-8c, which is like MARC-8 but allows control characters
222 0x01 through 0x1F, except ESC to be passed through verbatim.
224 Fix a problem with duplicate sub field character in MARC output. Problem
225 happened only when output was MARC-8 encoded.
227 --- 4.2.52 2013/04/03
229 yaz-ztest: Use hash for fake hit count. Before, random number was used.
230 This is problematic for unit tests using yaz-ztest. This patch also makes
231 a hash for CQL queries. For RPN, any term with a leading digit will be
232 treated as pseudu hit count (to force any particular hit count by a client).
234 yaz-ztest: return unique MARC dummy records. Beyond record offset
235 24, the author surname is patched with offset to make all records
238 COMSTACK: make @ bind to IPV6+IPV4 consistenly and avoid depending
239 on system wide default (/proc/sys/net/ipv6/bindv6only).
240 @4 binds to IPV4 only. @6 binds to IPV6 only.
242 Update CQL API documentation a bit
244 CQL: don't accept extra terms for queries. Makes the CQL parser
245 stricly conformant to the standard.
247 --- 4.2.51 2013/02/12
249 GFS: scan handler gets extra_args from request and may return extra
250 response data . That's for SRU only.
252 Solr scan support for ZOOM and yaz-client. Patch from Simon Jacob.
254 --- 4.2.50 2013/01/30
256 New function, yaz_xml_to_opac, to convert from OPACXML to Z39.50 OPAC.
258 OPACXML: sync spelling of availabilityDate in XML to that of Schema
259 opaxxml.xsd. The schema had the correct spelling of this member always.
260 The ASN.1 was mis-spelled and still is (API change) - we are
261 not changing this. However, the OPAC to XML conversion had yet
264 GFS: Allow conversion between Z39.50 OPAC and OPACXML via retrieval
267 New function, z_ext_record_oid_nmem, which is similar to
268 z_ext_record_oid but takes NMEM rather than ODR
270 --- 4.2.49 2013/01/18
272 ICU: New conversion element 'join' which joins tokens into one
273 with a custom character given by rule attribute.
275 --- 4.2.48 2013/01/10
277 New GFS search member: present_number. This is a hint to the
278 search handler how many records are going to be fetched immediately
279 following search. There's no guarantee that it's going to be the case,
280 since it depends on hit count (for Z39.50 piggyback) and whether errors
283 Make a few functions static (private). The functions getbyte_stream,
284 ungetbyte_stream and yaz_gets are now private. They were never declared
287 yaz-marcdump: exit(5) for serious decoding errors
289 ISO2709 decoding: be more picky WRT header
291 GFS: bail out of fetch if last_in_set is set. Until now, last_in_set,
292 was only used as to indicate that next-result-set-position should be
294 http://www.loc.gov/z3950/agency/markup/04.html#Next-result-set-position
295 Based on patch from Ashley Sanders.
297 Make some functions static/private in PQF parsing. Those functions were
298 never declared in a public header and so should not be in use by
299 applications based on YAZ.
301 --- 4.2.47 2012/11/23
303 ZOOM: special options to control APDU logging.
304 Using ZOOM_connection_option_set(c, "saveAPDU", "1") will enable
305 logging of APDUs until "saveAPDU" option is set again. If logging is
306 already enabled the effect is that current APDU buffer is cleared.
307 Using ZOOM_connection_option_set(c, "saveAPDU", "0") disables
308 logging (default behavior on new connection).
309 The APDUs sent/received can be obtained by using
310 Using ZOOM_connection_option_get(c, "APDU") or
311 ZOOM_connection_option_getl(c, "APDU", &l).
313 GFS: relay implementation_version from backend
314 From 3.0.40 and later, implementation_version from backend was
315 not used in init response at all.
317 --- 4.2.46 2012/11/15
319 Fix cs_rcvconnect for SSL comstack GNUTLS. Did not work in non-blocking
320 mode at all. Probably never did.
322 Make a new version of ztest.pem that, at least, is not expired.
324 --- 4.2.45 2012/11/13
326 Fix description of CCL directive 'case'.
328 More tight checking of form arguments (yaz_uri_to_array). Makes
329 YAZ better at rejecting big and/or bad POSTs.
331 SRU decoding does not report more than up to 10 invalid arguments.
333 rpn2cql: less quotes in generated terms. Semantics unchanged, but
334 it's prettier this way.
336 --- 4.2.44 2012/10/25
338 New utility yaz_decode_init_diag. Defined in proto.h.
340 Allow HTTP protocol on unix local socket. Also Z39.50 database may be
341 given for unix local socket.
342 The COMSTACK string for doing so is:
345 unix:/myfile:tcp:localhost:9999/mybase
346 unix:/myfile:localhost:9999/mybase
347 unix:/myfile:http://fakehost/mybase
349 debian: Use dpkg-buildflags in build process.
351 --- 4.2.43 2012/10/19
353 ZOOM C: don't trust recordPosition always. Some servers, such as IGI
354 global's SRU service uses a recordPosition scheme starting from zero.
355 First record's position should be one
356 according to the standard.
358 --- 4.2.42 2012/10/18
360 Allow more namespaces for SRU. This is to allow, for example, an
361 incorrect namespace returned from server
362 http://services.igi-global.com/sru .
364 Minor fixes for compilation on Windows.
366 --- 4.2.41 2012/10/11
368 daemon: log total number of bad signals from child on stop so that it
369 is more easy to spot problems with child worker processes.
371 retrieval: empty backend name attribute omits element set
372 from being used in retrieval.
374 --- 4.2.40 2012/10/04
376 Implement Solr sort strategy "solr", similar to sru11 sorting.
377 This will implement the correct parameters on Solr requst to do
380 --- 4.2.39 2012/09/28
382 Implement ccl_qual_fitem2. Like ccl_qual_fitem but with diagnostic
385 MARC: Extra/missing indicator handled for MARCXML.
386 The indicator length is given in header and is the same for the
387 whole record. If attributes ind1, ind2 are missing, then content
388 character defaults to blank. Extra indicator attributes (beyond)
389 indicator length are treated as an error.
391 Reformat: delete trailing whitespace
393 --- 4.2.38 2012/09/17
395 MARC: fix non-ASCII characters for leader. This is to ensure we can
396 generate XML in UTF-8.
398 CCL: new special attribute s=ag . Almost s=pw,al but preserves words
399 in one node with structure word.
401 --- 4.2.37 2012/09/04
403 yaz-json-parse: JSON output may be pretty printed by using option
406 Increase default value of max message for Z39.50 Init for GFS, ZOOM
407 and yaz-client. Old value was 1 MB. New value is 64 MB.
409 --- 4.2.36 2012/08/22
411 yaz-client: don't display bogus records from SRU servers. Some SRU servers
412 return more records than given by *maximumRecords*. Skipping those in
415 record_render: simplify buffer return handling and fix at least one bad
416 memory reference, that broke the test_embed_record sometimes.
418 Allow http://user:pass@host notation for yaz_url_exec.
420 zoomsh: allow shell command to be executed. Via the system(3) call.
422 yaz_poll: Allow num_fds == 0
424 yaz-client: fix bad encoding of "itemorder item". The itemorder
425 item <no> - command forgot to use length of encoded Item Request
426 package. Error present since YAZ 3.
428 yaz-ztest: fix bad usage of session handle. Bug was introduced when
429 result sets were saved (271a9c83).
431 SRU recordPacking: guess record packing in response rather than looking
432 at the recordPacking element which, OF COURSE, changed semantics in SRU
435 Decode SRU 2.0 responses. The official namespace for responses, according
436 to http://docs.oasis-open.org/search-ws/searchRetrieve/v1.0/cs01/schemas/sruRes
437 appears to be http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/search-ws/sruResponse .
438 nature.com's server, however, usee namespace
439 http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/search-ws/sru-2-0-response . For this reason
440 we are now using a glob-expr to match up the namespace. ZOOM C and
441 yaz-client updated. Perhaps SRU 1.2 uses same namespace, I don't know.
442 I can not find a single real example showing the "real" namespace in
443 the documentation from OASIS. The namespace for requests is different
444 from responses, but this is not added to YAZ yet, when we don't encode
447 --- 4.2.35 2012/06/26
449 zoom/record_render: add support for Base64 decoding fo MARC records
450 within XML element. For example: "xml; charset=marc-8; base64=/my/text()"
451 which will decode base64 + ISO2709 marc-8 encoded material from text node
454 --- 4.2.34 2012/06/07
456 Add missing definitions ZOOM_resultset_get_facet_field_by_index
457 and ZOOM_resultset_facets_names.
459 zoom: fix bad free for ZOOM_connect - happened when ZOOM connection
462 Change APDU dump printing to avoid long leading blanks. For levels 16
463 or larger the level is shown and the indentation is truncated but
464 recursed with modula 8. This makes it still reasonable easy to read
465 - even for nested BER dumps.
467 Fix bug completeBER_n WRT too nested BER. Function completeBER_n could
468 return 0 (incomplete package) in case where the BER package was
469 considered too nested (return value of -2).
471 dumpber: lines of level 15 are not indented further. Two spaces per
472 indentation; indentation 15 or more is indented to a fixed indentation
473 and augmented with a level=<no> indication.
475 zoomsh: increase max size of command+args
477 GFS: No limit in RPN buf size in CQL to RPN conversion.
479 --- 4.2.33 2012/05/09
481 New function for daemon utility, yaz_daemon_stop .
483 Makes yaz_srw_sortkeys_to_sort_spec public on Windows.
485 --- 4.2.32 2012/04/25
487 Add some Bib-1/SRU diagnostics + mappings. Bib-1: 1073 and
488 Bib-1 1074: Proxy failure. SRU: 1074: Proxy failure
490 --- 4.2.31 2012/04/23
492 YAZ daemon utility relays SIGUSR1 to child process.
494 ZOOM: handle trailing slash for Z39.50 urls. Previously localhost:9999/
495 would result in en empty database list - which in turn would result in
496 encoding failure for search.
498 Fix reading beyond string in yaz_sort_spec.
500 --- 4.2.30 2012/04/11
502 Add two new SRU diagnostics:
503 236: Access to specified database denied
504 1015: Init/AC: Maximum number of simultaneous sessions for Userid
506 Document the very useful ZOOM-C option "apdulog".
508 CQL to RPN: term may be passed through verbatim. This is enabled with
509 truncation.cql . The assumption being that the term is already CQL.
511 --- 4.2.29 2012/03/20
513 record_conv: leader spec may be given for marc element.
514 The leader spec is given as attribute leaderspec for element marc.
515 For example to convert a MARC21 record from MARC-8 to UTF-8:
516 <marc inputformat="marc" outputformat="marc"
517 inputcharset="marc-8" outputcharset="utf-8 "leaderspec="9='a'"/>
519 record_conv: allow user-XSLT params. For example:
520 <xslt stylesheet="MARC21slim2DC.xsl">
521 <param name="myparameter" value="myvalue"/>
522 <param name="otherparameter" value="othervalue"/>
525 record_conv: fix error handling for missing marc charsets.
527 CQL: fix extra terms in wrong order.
529 --- 4.2.28 2012/03/06
531 record_conv: modify new API for conversion types. The conversion types
532 may be passed in new functions yaz_record_conv_configure_t and
533 yaz_retrieval_configure_t. Removing yaz_record_conv_add_type .
535 Avoid mixed statement/variable declare; fixes compilation with Visual
538 --- 4.2.27 2012/02/28
540 Add non-standard SRU diagnostic: 235: "Database does not exist".
541 Couldn't live without it. HTTP 404: "Not found" is just so anonymous.
542 Update SRU to Bib-1 diagnostic maps accordingly.
544 CCL: add two new diagnostics for unsupported masking. The new
545 diagnostics are: "Embedded truncation not supported" and
546 "Single charcacter mask not supported".
548 --- 4.2.26 2012/02/23
550 CCL: fix use of "term" field in sub queries. Bug introduced in YAZ 4.2.25.
552 --- 4.2.25 2012/01/11
554 Build YAZ for Ubuntu Oneiric.
556 CCL: allow parantheses for proximity operands. For example CCL query
557 (a) % (b) is now allowed.
559 GFS: fix bend_assoc_is_alive. When cs_get returns 0 the association is
560 marked dead, rather then being destroyed. If not, the session memory is
561 being free'd before the search/scan handler is finished. Also destroy
562 'request' memory in request_release rather than in various places,
563 which resulted in leaks from time to time.
565 --- 4.2.24 2011/12/21
567 cql_sortby_to_sortkeys: honor sort prefix.
569 RPN to CQL: always quote resulting terms. For bizarre reasons, JSTOR's
570 SRU server returns 0 hits on ISSN searches unless a CQL term is quoted.
571 The rpn2cql family of functions now always returns quoted CQL terms.
573 Fix CQL to CCL conversion for multiple terms. Add two test cases as well.
575 --- 4.2.23 2011/12/15
577 Allow =val to be omitted for yaz_uri_to_array. Also, multiple &'s in
578 sequence is treated as one. For example, &&a=b&&&c& is identical to
581 --- 4.2.22 2011/12/05
583 Add ZOOM_connection_save_apdu_wrbuf. This function may be used to save
584 APDUs for a connection to a WRBUF.
586 --- 4.2.21 2011/11/23
588 Fix cql_sortby_to_sortkeys. Completely broken before.
590 Make CCL's @truncation work again.
592 --- 4.2.20 2011/11/09
594 New ZOOM connection setting: tproxy. It's like proxy, but does not
595 set Z39.50 proxy OID or change HTTP for proxy behavior. Can be used
596 to set resolved address + port for a connection outside ZOOM itself.
598 Fix atoi_n_check digit test. Thanks to Giannis Kosmas for spotting it.
600 --- 4.2.19 2011/11/07
602 Fix uninitialized variable in Solr spell support (could cause SEGV
603 for SRU response decoding).
605 Error handling for Z_APDU_close uses ZOOM_set_dset_error() to pass
606 back-end's addinfo through into the ZOOM response addinfo.
608 When ZOOM_set_dset_error() is passed an addinfo2 as well as addinfo,
609 they are separated by a colon and a space rather than simply
612 --- 4.2.18 2011/10/28
614 Add support for Solr spell-checking/suggestions through ZOOM.
615 If a Solr target has been configured correctly for spelling-checking
616 and suggestions, these will now be returned on the ResultSet option
617 "suggestions". zoomsh has been extended to show this with the cmd suggestions.
619 --- 4.2.17 2011/09/28
621 Fix function nmem_strsplit_escape2 which extends nmem_strsplit_escape
622 with a flag whether to substitute escape sequences or not.
624 --- 4.2.16 2011/09/22
626 Fix nmem_strsplit_escape to substitute escape char properly.
628 New option for zoomsh -e , which makes it abort on first error and
629 return process exit code to indicate success/failure.
631 YAZ options utility supports special option -- which makes all it treat
632 all following arguments as non-options.
634 --- 4.2.15 2011/09/16
636 Fix yaz_file_path_resolve/yaz_path_fopen/yaz_fopen so that path is not
637 searched if absolute filename is given.
639 Fix conv_xslt() error-reporting when stylesheet is not found.
640 (The value of fullpath is meaningless in this situation.)
642 --- 4.2.14 2011/09/07
644 Fix problem in CQL sort node creation: un-initialized memory.
646 New ZOOM utility ZOOM_query_sortby2. That takes a strategy parameter: one of
647 "z3950", "type7", "cql", "sru11" or "embed". The "embed" chooses type-7 or
648 CQL sortby depending on whether Type-1 or CQL is actually sent to the
651 New sortspec utilities: yaz_srw_sortkeys_to_sort_spec,
652 yaz_sort_spec_to_srw_sortkeys, yaz_sort_spec_to_type and 7yaz_sort_spec_to_cql.
654 rpn2solr supports Z39.58 truncation (104). Thus, CCL truncation mode t=z
655 will make it possible to use both single-character mask (#) and wildcard (?)
656 in CCL . Throw diagnostic for left truncation because that is not supported
659 --- 4.2.13 2011/09/01
661 Fixes for cql2rpn, cql2ccl and ccl2rpn; mostly in the area of special
662 cases using escapes (\-sequences) and masking.
664 PQF parse fix: A trailing backslash followed by end-of-string (\0)
665 would result in a read one byte beyond string.
667 rpn2ccl may use Z39.50 masking for terms (t=z).
669 ICU check fix. Don't include library -lCrun on Solaris, unless present.
671 ICU check fix: Use --cppflags-searchpath to determine ICU include files;
672 not --cppflags (which seeems like an error in icu-config).
674 --- 4.2.12 2011/08/27 RPM package only
676 cql2ccl: fix conversion of terms: operator characters were not
679 --- 4.2.11 2011/08/25 RPM package only
681 ccl2rpn: Conversion to regexp-1 terms (trunc=102). For mode t=x, the
682 CCL parser will map both # and ? to their regular expression
683 quivalents (. and .*).
685 rpn2cql: deal with truncation=102 (regexp-1). And ensure proper quoting
686 of reserved CQL characters.
688 cql2ccl: deal with both * and ? in conversion. Also leave escaped ones as
689 is, so that they are passed through.
691 --- 4.2.10 2011/08/24
693 ZOOM SRU mode: more aggressive re-connect.
695 Private function prox_unit_name() renamed to yaz_prox_unit_name() and
696 made available as a utility function, declared in <yaz/logrpn.h>
698 rpn2cql_structure() supports proximity nodes (except that the Type-1
699 proximity node's "exclusion" binary is ignored, as there is no way to
700 express that in CQL). Fixes bug #4564.
704 Fix SEGV that could occur if set command of zoomsh was given without
705 value (2nd argument).
707 Fix SEGV that could occur if unsupported transport was given for
708 COMSTACK - say https (when SSL was unavailable).
710 Build yaz-url on Windows too.
714 New utility to get web content. Header is url.h. A command line tool
715 yaz-url is part of the distribution and packages.
717 Fixes for SSL COMSTACK (when gnutls is in use).
719 New functions yaz_base64{encode,decode}. Header is base64.h.
723 ZOOM C includes HTTP response buffer as additional info if it fails
724 to decode the SRU response.
726 Make wrbuf_json_puts available.
730 zoom: throw diagnostic for invalid value for option "sru". Before a
731 bad SRU request was sent.
733 Adding new utility wrbuf_vp_puts.
735 Add cclxmlconfig.obj to win/makefile. It was missing completely.
739 ZOOM HTTP: use absoluteURI's in proxy mode as required by RFC 2616 (HTTP).
740 Fix a bug in handling of cookies. Fix a bug that would occur if proxy +
741 redirect was used at the same time.
743 MARC line mode decoding: be less picky about length given - first
744 5 digits of header that is.
746 CQL to CCL conversion: deal with CQL proximity (cql_to_ccl function).
748 Changes to decoding of SRU records: a record with recordPacking=xml is
749 modified with a new root element <yaz_record> if the recordData contains
750 multiple children elements. This is to make the record XML parseable
753 RPN to Solr conversion: encode special characters.
755 Generic Frontend Server: fix uinitialized member, stepSize.
759 Fix a bug in SRU decoding of records.. The database records stored
760 had un-initialized memory, but it would only be seen with yaz_record_render
761 and type_spec="ext" .
763 Fix a bug in ccl_qual_dup introduced in 4.2.3.
767 Add new CCL utility, ccl_qual_dup, which makes a copy of a CCL bibset.
771 Add new utilities to convert from CQL to CCL . These utilities have
772 prefix cql_to_ccl defined in cql.h.
774 Defensive coding for an off-by-one bug in ucol_getSortKey. This could
775 lead to memory heap corruptions when ICU utilities were in use.
779 Make compilation work without Libxml2.
781 yaz-client: remove redundant blanks in display of searchResult-1 term
786 CQL: parse CQL sortby spec. The resulting sort spec is stored in the
787 resulting CQL node (tree) in a new node CQL_NODE_SORT.
789 CQL and GFS: add utility cql_sortby_to_sortkeys which converts CQL sortby
790 1.2 node tree to CQL 1.1 spec. This in turn allows the generic frontend
791 server to only consider srw_sortkeys and support both SRU 1.1 and 1.2.
792 Note that the CQL sortby spec is only converted when the GFS is already
793 converting from CQL to RPN (cql2rpn element).
795 New function nmem_strsplitx. This is like nmem_strsplit but allows us to
796 specify whether to collapse delimitors or not. The existing nmem_strsplit
797 do collapse (collapse parameter = 1).
799 Windows installer: For NSIS, set InstallDir depending on x86/x64.
801 Rename internal func yaz_use_attribute_create. While non-static, this
802 function is not declared in a public header.
806 Add -lCrun when linking with ICU on Solaris.
808 More quicks character set conversions for OPAC records.
812 fix problem with record_render: records were converted (character set
813 wise) even if no charset was given. Problem introduced in YAZ 4.1.5.
817 SRU: add methods for handling DADS SRU-proxy facets.
819 Separate OPAC record character set for ZOOM_record. yaz_record_render
820 allows a character set given as charset=from/opacfrom,to where 'from' is
821 the character set of a bibliographic record, 'opacfrom' is character set
822 of OPAC record and 'to' is the target character set.
826 yaz-client: show may XML format records. Command show followed by 'format'
827 will format XML records retrieved using Libxml2's xmlDocDumpFormatMemory
830 src/stemmer.c: Avoid using unnamed union. It is not supported by some
833 For PHPYAZ: set YAZVERSION, not YAZ_VERSION.
836 Update yaz.spec to operate on both SLES11 / Centos 5.5.
838 RPM: Release includes 'indexdata' name. Use indexdata in release name so
839 this package can be distinguished from other vendors.
841 yaz-config: Use exec_prefix, libdir, includedir . Use these variables
842 as determined by configure
844 yaz-config: set YAZ_VERSION env. php_yaz relies on it.
846 GFS: Z_PresentStatus_partial_4 for missing record. If bend_fetch handler
847 returns no error and no record, the present request is considered
848 partial (only a subset of the records could be returned by backend), and
849 so it is appropriate to set Present Status to partial-4.
853 Move yaz-config man pages to section 1.
855 More documentation about Solr.
857 tcp comstack: change behavior for @-specs (anyaddr). @ listens on
858 AF_INET (IPV4) peers, and @6 listens to AF_INET6 (ipv6) peers.
859 Previously @ listened on AF_INET6 which accepted both IPV4 and IPV6
860 peers on some Linux systems. However, in general that does not work
861 so YAZ can not rely on that to work. Debian changed behavior in this
862 respect from Debian lenny to Debian squeeze (still testing as of Oct
864 http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-devel@lists.debian.org/msg277726.html
866 zoomsh: remove "debugging" output. Was added by mistake in 4.1.0.
870 Fix yaz-config output: echo_source not set correctly by configure.
874 Solr Web Service support for yaz-client and ZOOM.
876 Define record syntax JSON. OID: 1.2.840.10003.5.1000.81.3 .
878 --- 4.0.12 2010/08/17
880 Z39.50 facet support. Facet specifications are passed for search in
881 other-information with ASN.1 as defined in facet.asn and OID
882 .10.1000.81.5 . Facets are expressed as an Attribute list as known
883 from Type-1/RPN queries. Type 1 is field. Type 2 is sort order. Type
884 3 is limit (number of entries to get in response). yaz-ztest returns
885 dummy facets if a client asks for them.
887 --- 4.0.11 2010/07/09
889 CCL fixes: bug 2895 and bug 3539.
891 GR1-display: add comma in display - was removed by mistake in
894 Windows installer: bundle MSVCP90.dll - used by icuuc42.dll.
896 SRU: Merge cookies on HTTP redirects (Giannis Kosmas <kosmas@lib.uoc.gr>).
898 --- 4.0.10 2010/06/18
900 ZOOM C: Add ZOOM_resultset_release. ZOOM_resultset_release releases a
901 result set from a connection. The result set will be on its own
902 thereafter; no operations on it will perform retrievals from a target.
903 Only cached copies are returned.
905 ZOOM C:fix case for HTTP servers responding with Connection:close.
906 Ensure that if there is a current task it is resumed (like fetching
907 more records in a result set) . Bug #3484.
909 PQF parser: use odr_atoi for Odr_int (not atoi)
911 Minor PQF encoding and decoding changes; reformat. PQF decoding: attribute
912 values that contain any non-digits are treated as string attributes
913 (previously decoding only checked for leading character ([0-9]). PQF
914 encoding: attribute string values are not surrounded by double-quotes.
918 New utility for managing threads - thread_create.h.
920 Add socket pipe utility - spipe.h. The socket pipe has same purpose as
921 Unix pipe . Unfortunately Windows pipes do not work on select/poll -
922 but YAZ' implementation do.
924 Fixes for yaz_cond-functions on Windows 7.
926 DLL export more symbols.
928 zoomsh: show record do NOT render opac.
930 Remove *.la files from Debian and RPM packages.
934 Debian package libyaz-dev depends on libgnutls-dev again (was
935 removed in YAZ 4.0.6, but due to Libtool it is still needed
936 even though yaz-config do not list libgnutls libs).
938 ZOOM: Use only one WRBUF for returning string results for
939 ZOOM_resultset. Reduces memory usage for ZOOM in general.
941 ZOOM: ZOOM_connection do not use a shared pointer to
942 ZOOM_resultset after ZOOM_resultset is destructed by
943 user. Reverts to YAZ 4.0.4 behavior.
947 record-conv: fix problem with at least one XSL conversion -
948 due to probably incorrect usage of XML XSL documents.
952 Fix yaz-config for static mode and the use of SSL (gnutls).
956 Forward decl timeval struct in mutex.h and gettimeofday.h.
958 yaz-config: fix 'static' mode linking.
962 Add functions yaz_cond_{create,destroy,wait,signal,broadcast}. These
963 are wrappers for pthreads or Windows. For Windows these are put in
964 a separate DLL: yaz_cond4.
966 libyaz.la (whole source) is compiled with thread. If thread support
967 is enabled enabled, all source of YAZ is compiled with treading support.
968 This allows core utilities such as yaz_log to use thread facilities.
969 Previously (YAZ 3 and YAZ 4 releases), only libyaz_server.la was using
970 thread utilities. This commit moves mutex utilities (mutex.c) from
971 libyaz_server.la to libyaz.la.
973 yaz-json-parse displays leading text until error.
977 Handle HTTP redirect for SRU GET in yaz-client and ZOOM C. Based on
978 patch from Giannis Kosmas.
980 SRU: no longer URL encode SRU database. The URL for an SRU server is
981 a URL and such is alreeady encoded - at least when given with leading
982 http:// or https://. This reverts behavior to YAZ 3.0.50.
984 Support for new MARC XML notation TurboMARC which like MARCXML is a
985 complete representation of MARC/ISO2709.. This one, however, is more
986 compact and allows for faster processing with XSLT. TurboMARC can be
987 used in the marcdisp.h API, from the yaz-marcdump utility and from
990 yaz-ztest can be configured - via the database - to perform certain
991 delays when it performs operations search, present and single record
992 fetch. This allows testers to make yaz-ztest act as a real or even slow
993 Z39.50 server. Refer to the yaz-ztest man pages for details.
997 wrbuf_destroy allows NULL WRBUF passed to it.
999 Fix CCL qualifier aliases (did not work since YAZ 2.1.56).
1001 Add ZOOM_connection_close.
1003 No fixed size buffers for ZOOM shell - bug #3257.
1005 tstodr: make it work on s390 platform.
1007 New icu iterator-functions. The new icu_iter-functions makes it possible
1008 to use ICU chains from many threads.
1010 yaz-client: better syntax check for show command.
1012 --- 4.0.1 2010/01/26
1014 New glob file pattern utility. Like POSIX glob. For Windows too. Refer to
1017 New simple local-file XML include facility which allows file glob-patterns.
1018 Refer to yaz/xml_include.h.
1020 Utility yaz-json-parse which parses JSON and demonstrates the JSON parser
1023 ZOOM_record_get supports new parameter "format" which makes it format XML
1026 Fix JSON parser WRT start symbol. The start grammar symbol (referred to as
1027 JSONText in ECMA-262) is JSONValue, not JSONObject.
1029 --- 4.0.0 2010/01/20
1031 Windows binaries for YAZ now compiled with Visual Studio 2008 (VC9).
1032 Older versions of YAZ was compiled with Visual Studio 6.0 (1998).
1034 Update so/DLL to version 4. Windows version builds YAZ4.DLL.
1035 POSIX/Unix builds .so with major version 4.
1037 Remove old LOG_-defines from log.h. They have been obsolete and
1038 undefined by default for the last 5 years.
1040 Odr_int is now of type 'long long'. Used to be 'int' in YAZ 3 series.
1042 GFS: Remove socket (int *fd) from search_rr handler. The socket
1043 descriptor ptr is a facility that allowed a search handler to supply
1044 a socket which would serve as a callback - when search was complete.
1045 This facility has now been in use for years.
1047 COMSTACK API changes: cs_stackerr, cs_addrstr. COMSTACK method cs_stackerr
1048 removed. It is not implemented by tcpip or unix COMSTACK, perhaps for ISO
1049 SR which was removed 7 years ago. COMSTACK macro / method cs_addrstr now
1050 returns 'const char *' rather than 'char *. The returned string is
1051 read-only and should not be modified by applications. COMSTACK cs_close is
1052 now a void function - it no longer returns int. No applications check for
1053 the value and the implementations has always returned 0.
1055 ZOOM: use size_t for scan hit counts and str size. Functions
1056 ZOOM_scanset_term and ZOOM_scanset_display_term have changed, so that
1057 occ (hit count) and len (string length) are now of type size_t pointer
1058 rather than int pointer. This is to be able to represent large hit counts
1059 and to also just to use the proper type for string length (strlen result).
1061 New JSON parser. Refer to include/yaz/json.h .
1063 WRBUF API changes.. For size parameters for WRBUF size_t is now used ..
1064 Used to be int in some cases. Many wrbuf_-functions used to return an int
1065 indicating some length.. These return values were never used. And so they
1068 ODR: odr_malloc, odr_total now takes size_t for size.
1070 clone_z_type: fix leak; occurred for encoding failures.
1072 --- 3.0.52 2009/12/03
1074 tcpip comstack: fix use of uinitialized variable in cs_straddr. This
1075 bug was introduced in 3.0.51.
1077 --- 3.0.51 2009/12/02
1079 tcpip comstack: Remove TCP receiver buffer optimizations for Solaris.
1081 tcpip comstack: fix leak for getaddrinfo.
1083 Encoding of SRU database is performed by yaz_encode_sru_dbpath_odr or
1084 yaz_encode_sru_dbpath_buf. Now used by yaz-client and the ZOOM API.
1085 Decoding of SRU "path" database is performed by private function
1086 yaz_decode_sru_dbpath_odr . This in turn is used by yaz_srw_decode
1087 and yaz_sru_decode in server applications, GFS, yazproxy, metaproxy.
1089 yaz-client: honor base command for SRU. Change when database setting
1090 is applied for SRU and ensure it is kept when a connection is reset.
1091 Change also the way errors are displayed or SRU (decoding of packages).
1093 --- 3.0.50 2009/11/02
1095 Add support for extra request / response data for SRU codecs and GFS.
1096 The Z_SRW_PDU structure has two new members extraResponseData_{buf,len}
1097 for extra data response buffer and length. For the GFS, both request
1098 and response data (XML) is carried in extra_args and extra_response_data
1099 for the search handler. Patch by Ko van der Sloot.
1101 ZOOM: For queries that cannot be converted to the specified rpnCharset,
1102 ZOOM now returns a diagnostic on the client-side ('invalid query' /
1103 10010). This fixes bug #2113.
1105 yaz-client fix: If cmdfile is passed to yaz-client (option -f) and that
1106 cmdfile included a 'quit' command that would result in a memory violation.
1108 --- 3.0.49 2009/10/01
1110 Make a number of functions defined in xmlquery.c static. These have
1111 never been declared in a public header file (yaz/xmlquery.h) and was
1112 made public by mistake.
1114 Improve speed of character conversions (iconv utilities). This makes
1115 conversions from MARC-8 faster.
1117 ZOOM_record_get returns 0 pointer if a MARC record can not be decoded -
1118 unless type desired is "raw". This will prevent type "xml" from
1119 returning ISO2709 .. Which obviously can not be XML parsed.
1121 Fix memory leak in ZOOM that would occur if option apdulog was used
1122 on a re-used connection.
1124 Frontend server logs HTTP requests.
1126 Frontend server now sends Z39.50 close when it times out (sesssion has
1127 been idle for too long). Versions 2.0.30 and earlier also sent close.
1128 But due to a mistake this was disabled in all versions after that, i.e.
1129 the server would just close the socket immediately.
1131 yaz-client emits a better message when receiving an unrecognised
1132 userInformationField.
1134 Skip zero-length subfields when decoding ISO2709. This rare case happens
1135 if a record has two FS characters in a sequence. Without this patch
1136 there would be a reference beyond char array in using_code_len fragments
1139 Fix yaz-marcdump error that would occur if option -n was used (bug #3028).
1141 --- 3.0.48 2009/08/28
1143 The show command offered by the zoomsh command now takes a 3d optional
1144 parameter type which is what is passed to ZOOM_record. If the type
1145 argument is omitted, "render" is used.
1147 RPN to CQL conv may use USE string attributes (bug #2978).
1149 MarcXchange NS is now info:lc/xmlns/marcxchange-v1 .
1151 --- 3.0.47 2009/07/08
1153 Function yaz_xml2query allows a diagnostic element in the PQF XML
1154 representation .. diagnostic@code and diagnostic@addinfo is diagnostic
1155 code and additional info respectively.
1157 The BER BOOLEAN is now the integral type Odr_bool which still happens
1158 to be an 'int'. The BER INTEGER which used to be a plain 'int' is now
1159 typedef'd to Odr_int. This is still an integral 'int', but it may be
1160 changed to 64-bit via a one-liner in nmem.h (NMEM_64=1). The documentation,
1161 ASN-1 compiler as well as programs has been updated to use the new types.
1163 --- 3.0.46 2009/06/08
1165 zoom: ZOOM_record_get now renders OPAC records when type=xml. Previously
1166 only the bibliographic record was rendered. For type=opac, an OPAC
1167 record is only returned if it is present.
1169 iconv: small fix for encoding of advancegreek.
1171 yaz-client: avoid double display of SRU/SRW records (bug #2798).
1173 yaz-client: option auto_reconnect=on really reconnects.
1175 yaz-client: fix bug #2770 - avoid length limit for auth parameters.
1177 server: avoid null ptr ref for for yaz_poll errors.
1179 build: fix RPM build for RHEL 5.3.
1181 comstack: prefer IPV6 addresses over IPV4 - should refix bug #2350
1183 --- 3.0.45 2009/03/31
1185 Fixed bug #2709: TCP connect returns Invalid argument.
1187 Fixed compilation for mingw.
1189 Honor charset for raw records (ZOOM_record_get).
1191 Fixed use of errno for threaded mode that was seen on Solaris 10.
1193 Fixed argument passing with blanks in value for Windows Service.
1195 Disable YAZ' own log rotate by default (no 1 GB limit).
1196 The variable l_max_size which specifies the log file limit is set to 0
1197 (DISABLED): This is due to the fact that YAZ is most often deployed using
1198 logrotate. Also YAZ can not perform log rotate because of unsufficient
1199 permissions (setuid).
1201 --- 3.0.44 2009/02/17
1203 List supported encodings in man page for yaz-iconv.
1205 Fixed missing SSL libs for --libs output
1207 Re-established OID record syntax application-xml. Nobody should use it
1208 but we don't want to change soname because of this symbol being absent.
1210 --- 3.0.42 2009/02/02
1212 YAZ' RPM spec works for both SUSE Linux Enterprise and RedHat Fedora.
1214 Added member named_result_sets for init handler struct for the GFS. This
1215 allows a server to disable named result sets.
1217 Removed OID record syntax application-xml.
1219 Added support for rule-based transliterator for ICU wrapper of YAZ.
1221 Fixed bug #1902: yaz-icu XML output.
1223 Make YAZ checks Emacs friendly.
1225 BITSTRING value shows value. Bug #2346.
1227 ISO2709 decoding: skip control characters from indicator data.
1229 Omit sort key by default in yaz-icu's output.
1231 Allow combined single char options (again) for YAZ' options function.
1233 Utility yaz-marcdump got option to display YAZ version (-V).
1235 Allow YAZ to use ICU 3.4.
1237 Added new ICU test case which illustrates removal of diacritics.
1239 --- 3.0.41 2008/12/29
1241 Fixed Fixed test that makes VERSION_SHA1 appear on dist versions too.
1243 --- 3.0.40 2008/12/29
1245 For configure, using option --without-xml2 also disables Libxslt/Libexslt
1248 Fixed bug #2352: yaz-marcdump crashes for certain record.
1250 Added man page 'bib1-attr' which includes list of common Bib-1 attributes.
1252 Added support for Danmarc2 to UTF-8 conversion.
1254 Added support for ISO5426 to UTF-8 conversion.
1256 zget_InitRequest/zget_InitResponse returns GIT SHA1 hash as part of
1257 implementation version.
1259 Function yaz_version returns GIT SHA1 hash for parameter sha1_str.
1261 --- 3.0.38 2008/11/10
1263 ZOOM C now only fires one ZOOM_EVENT_SEARCH per search-task. Previously,
1264 ZOOM_EVENT_SEARCH was fired for each searchRetrieve Response received.
1266 ZOOM C now interprets databaseName option for ZOOM connection as path
1269 Windows version bundled with Libxml2 2.7.1 / Libxslt 1.1.24 / ICU 4.0.
1271 Fixed CCL to RPN/PQF conversion which could result in invalid PQF.
1273 Dummy Libxml2 types no longer defined in headers of YAZ'.
1275 Fixed memory violation for ZOOM C - could occur when SRU diagnostics was
1278 --- 3.0.36 2008/09/26
1280 Various ODR chapter fixes.
1282 Windows version uses libxml2 2.6.32+, libxslt 1.1.23+ and ICU 4.0.
1284 Added missing source for Windows compilation, mutex.c.
1286 Fixed compilation of YAZ for Visual Studio 2008. Bug #2256.
1288 For SRU connections in ZOOM all records up to "count" are now fetched.
1290 Fixed crash in generic frontend server (and yaz-ztest) which occurred
1291 in Windows due to bad error handling for Libxml2.
1293 Added facility for sending arbitrary records (ASN.1 any) using
1294 ZOOM C's Extended service update. Patch by Sam Reynolds.
1296 New options for ZOOM C's connection, logapdu which makes ZOOM log
1299 --- 3.0.34 2008/06/18
1301 YAZ uses GNU TLS without the OpenSSL compatibility wrapper.
1303 --- 3.0.32 2008/06/12
1305 Fixed memory violation that could occur when decoding UTF-8. This bug
1306 was only present in 3.0.30 of YAZ.
1308 --- 3.0.30 2008/06/06
1310 Implemented SSL sockets using GNU TLS. OpenSSL is still supported, but
1311 GNU TLS is used by default (if found).
1313 yaz-ztest returns OPAC records if a client asks for OPAC.
1315 Improved speed of MARC-8 encoding.
1317 Added support for lossy and loss-less MARC-8 encoding.
1319 Changed yaz_record_conv_record to be reentrant for XSLT conversions.
1321 Added new Windows Service wrapper (sc).
1323 yaz-client's itemorder command may now send a file.
1325 Fixed yaz-marcdump to allow the use of NS prefix for record element.
1327 Added new function yaz_log_xml_errors.
1329 Allow (but warn) unknown XML attributes in MARCXML parsing.
1331 Handle G1 sequneces in MARC-8 decoding. Bug #2115.
1333 The UTF-8 to MARC-8 conversion now uses a different set of characters
1334 for Greek symbols. Bug #2120.
1336 --- 3.0.26 2008/02/21
1338 Added yaz_daemon (daemon.h).
1340 Fixed bug #2068: pkg-config trouble
1342 Fixed bug #395: ZOOM_record / OPAC record encoding problems.
1344 --- 3.0.24 2008/01/28
1346 Document --with-xml2 option.
1348 Added OPAC XML XSD (etc/opacxml.xsd).
1350 Allow glob mask for name attribute in retrieval element for the
1351 generic frontend server's retrieval facility.
1353 Changed yaz_poll_poll to return yaz_poll_except for all returned events
1354 except POLLIN/POLLOUT.
1356 Fixed error handling in cs_listen. Bug #2037.
1358 --- 3.0.22 2008/01/20
1360 Fixed version in yaz/yaz-version.h.
1362 Fixed bug #2027: Crash when closing connection.
1364 Changed configure so that ICU support is only enabled if only ICU
1365 and Libxml2 is available (because the ICU chain is XML based).
1367 --- 3.0.20 2008/01/15
1369 YAZ now makes ICU utilities for Windows. A separate DLL, yaz_icu3.dll,
1370 is built. Only this DLL depends on the ICU runtime.
1372 yaz-ziffy is no longer part of YAZ. It is distributed separately by
1373 Index Data because ziffy's license is GPL2 rather then 'Revised BSD'.
1375 Changed license of CCL module to 'Revised BSD'. After consultation with
1376 remaining members of the original EUROPAGATE consortium, we are re-issuing
1377 the CCL module without a separate license. The software was developed by
1378 Index Data as part of a research project. The special license was included
1379 to help feed usage information back to the project consortium to support
1380 project evaluation. At this time, the project consortium has long-since
1381 disbanded, and the majority of the original principals have retired. At the
1382 same time, we have significantly modified the software during the following
1383 years, to the point where very practically no original code remains. To
1384 simplify re-use of the software, we have contacted those members of the
1385 consortium who could be reached, and agreed to re-issue the module as a
1386 proper part of the YAZ package.
1388 Tcl scripts uses /usr/bin/tclsh as preferred shell.
1390 CQL closer to being version 1.2 compliant. CQL also allows free-form
1391 terms, such as 'title=a b', and thus, make the CQL parser more CCL-like
1394 Fixed bug in ZOOM_options_getl WRT setting of parameter lenp. This
1395 bug could make Extended services handling crash in the ZOOM layer. This
1396 bug was only present in YAZ 3.0.18.
1398 --- 3.0.18 2007/12/19
1400 ziffy uses YAZ' options rather than getopt; getopt is unavailable on
1403 yaz-marcdump reads and writes collection wrapped records.
1405 Handle OPAC for record conversion module.
1407 Fixes for ICU wrapper.
1409 Allow ICU libs to be controlled with --with-icu .
1411 --- 3.0.16 2007/11/12
1413 Added yaz_poll which is a wrapper for select/poll. When poll is available
1414 and non-buggy, it is used, by yaz_poll . This allows more than 1024
1415 sockets to be in use.
1417 Added ICU wrapper library which exposes ICU http://www.icu-project.org/
1418 functionality through an XML based configuration (ICU chain). This system
1419 is useful for search facilities such as Pazpar2 and Zebra that needs to
1420 perform tokenization of indexed material. The ICU code in a separate
1421 library libyaz3_icu.a.
1423 Added HTTP tunnel facility for COMSTACK, bug #1752.
1424 This is a facility that allows a Web proxy, such as squid, to tunnel
1425 Z39.50 traffic. This facility is "transparent" to must applications
1426 using YAZ. It's enabled by using pseudo transport connect: followed by
1427 the proxy address, followed by command, then follwed by he regular
1428 "virtual" addresss. For example,
1429 connect:webproxy.com:3128,tcp:z3950.loc.gov:7090/voyager .
1431 More MARC-8/UTF-8 conversion fixes. Bugs #1666, #1667, #1778.
1433 --- 3.0.14 2007/09/21
1435 Fixed bad memory reference in ZOOM_record - cuased by member not being
1436 initialized. This was a problem only in YAZ 3.0.12.
1438 Fixed bug in conversion from MARC to XML: Non-XML characters in control
1439 fields were not removed.
1441 Changed the way C code is generated from codetables.xml. Made a MARC-8
1442 conversion trie for each characterSet section rather than codeTable.
1443 This is ensure the code can deal with G0/G1 sequences. Use of a newer version
1444 of codetables.xml from Larry Dixson, LOC. Bug #1464.
1446 --- 3.0.12 2007/09/12
1448 ZOOM C now handles SRU surrogate diagnostics (i.e. errors returned
1449 from ZOOM_record_error).
1451 ZOOM C function ZOOM_record_get returns record schema for type="schema".
1453 Implemented HTTP Basic authentication to SRU/GET, SRU/POST and SRW requests.
1455 Added new ZOOM C connection option 'sru_option' which specifies SRU version.
1457 Better SRW-to-Bib-1 diagnostic mapping.
1459 ZOOM C and yaz-client announces SRU version 1.2 by default.
1461 yaz-client 'sru' command may specifiy both SRU version and transport (SOAP,
1464 Fixed in yaz_sru_decode to allow other version than 1.1.
1466 --- 3.0.10 2007/08/22
1468 Added support for SRU scan for ZOOM.
1470 Added support for the use of the older versions or Extended Service
1471 Update in ZOOM. To faciliate this, an option "updateVersion" may be
1472 set to the version , 1=first, 2=second, 3=third. The third version is
1473 what ZOOM C has used so far. And that, obviously, is the default.
1475 Added support for CCL queries in Z39.50 queries sent to the GFS (and
1476 therefore in Zebra and in SimpleServer-based applications). The new
1477 <ccl2rpn> element in a GFS configuration file, if present, names a CCL
1478 qualifier file used to transform incoming CCL queries into Type-1 RPN,
1479 which is passed into the back-end search callback function.
1481 Added support for HTTP Basic authentication in clients: the SRU/W
1482 codec encodes the username/password elements of the PDU structure
1483 appropriately, and these may be set using the "user" and "password"
1484 options in ZOOM-C applications (the same options that are used for
1485 Z39.50 authentication).
1487 --- 3.0.8 2007/06/25
1489 Fixed bug #1208: SSL appears to be broken in ZOOM.
1491 Fixed bug #1206: Libxml2 include path weirdness.
1493 Added oid_name_to_dotstring.
1495 Allow elementSetName to be specified for ZOOM C record update.
1497 Allow waitAction to be specified for ZOOM C based for Extended Services.
1499 Fixed NULL ptr reference bug in yaz-ztest - caused by omitted record
1500 syntax OID. Bug introduced in YAZ 3 series.
1502 Updated WIN32 build to include Libxml2 2.6.28 / Libxslt 1.1.19.
1504 --- 3.0.6 2007/06/06
1506 Fixed bug #1157: yaz-client does not read .yazclientrc from current
1507 directory. yaz-client now reads commands from file given by option -f
1508 if specified; then tries to read .yazclientrc in current directory.
1509 Failing that, it reads .yazclientrc from user's home directory.
1511 Added support for correlationInfo Note and ID for Record Update via
1514 Added yaz-client command querycharset which specifies character set for
1515 query terms for Z39.50 RPN queries and Z39.50 Scan Requests
1516 (termListAndStartPoint).
1518 Charset ISO5428:1984 is an alias for ISO5428-1984.
1520 Implemented a way to perform scan in a result set using Z39.50. This
1521 is achieved by attaching the result set name in the characterInfo
1522 (type InternationalString) of OtherInformation in the Scan Request PDU.
1523 The result set is identified in the otherinformation by the new OID:
1524 USERINFO, Z3950_PREFIX.10.1000.81.4, "Scan-Set
1525 This allows for scan in result set and faceted search . Zebra did some
1526 of this in the APT term using attribute type 8 and value being result
1527 set. Using the OtherInformation approach for this is cleaner and easier
1528 to work with in proxies and the like. This facility can be used in
1529 yaz-client using new command setscan which takes a result set as first
1530 argument, start position (APT) as second.
1532 Changed decoding of SRU XML packed records to deal with servers that
1533 have recordData with XML data with multiple root nodes. Also make
1534 comparison for recordPacking case insensitive. Again, one server
1535 returns "XML" where others return "xml".
1537 For SRU responses allow Content-Type application/xml as well as text/xml.
1539 --- 3.0.4 2007/05/21
1541 Fixed bug in character set conversion of BER strings. Bug introduced
1544 --- 3.0.2 2007/05/08
1546 For OIDs use Odr_oid type everywhere, i.e. do not assume Odr_oid=int.
1548 For OID class, use oid_class consistently.
1550 Fixed external handling for SUTRS and Explain records (bug appeared in 3.0
1553 Added partial support for ISO5428-1984, which is the "Greek alphabet coded
1554 character set for bibliographic information interchange". By Giannis Kosmas.
1556 Added documentation on new OID API.
1558 --- 3.0.0 2007/05/02
1560 Changes to generic frontend server interface: added new member
1561 'query_charset' for bend_initrequest structure. A backend init handler
1562 should set this member to its native character set for query terms.
1563 When defined, the frontend server logic will announce this character set
1564 to a client if the negotiationModel bit is set by the client. All server
1565 implementors are encouraged to specify this. If a backend server does not
1566 specify this a warning is issued using yaz_log(YLOG_WARN,..).
1568 Added CCL utility to remove terms (stop words) from resulting RPN
1569 tree. This is handled by functions with prefix ccl_stop_words_ .
1571 New ZOOM C option, "rpnCharset", which allows client-side conversion of
1572 terms in RPN queries.
1574 Clean-up the CCL API. Moved some internal structures from ccl.h to
1575 private header cclp.h. Changed ccl_parser_create so that a Bibset must
1576 be supplied. Removed tokenize API from ccl.h - including ccl_parser_find.
1577 This is replaced by ccl_parser_find_str which takes a string instead.
1579 Split YAZ library into two libs : libyaz.la and libyaz_server.la.
1580 libyaz.la is the core of YAZ except the generic frontend server and
1581 does not depend on POSIX threads anymore. libyaz_server.la is the
1582 generic frontend server facilities and uses POSIX thread functionality
1583 if available. The libyaz.la no longer depends on POSIX threads because
1584 the number of global structures is limited. NMEM no longer re-uses blocks
1585 between threads ; it simply free's memory immediately but allocates in
1586 "large" chunks as usual. We don't expect any performance penalties
1587 because of this. The yaz_log system is still using a global log_level so
1588 caution must be taken when modifying it with yaz_log_init_.. +
1589 yaz_log_mask_str. This, however, should not cause any trouble because
1590 these functions are called during initialization of application code
1591 anyway. `yaz-config --libs server` returns libs for server applications;
1592 `yaz-config --libs` returns libs for non-server applications.
1594 New OID database - with public definitions in oid_db.h. Removed old OID
1595 database including the head oid.h and definitions such as enum oid_value
1596 and struct oident. The new OID database uses the same string names as
1597 before but the 'protocol' is gone. There are now only two representations
1598 raw OID (int *) and string. Functions with prefix yaz_string_to_oid
1599 converts from string to OID; functions with prefix yaz_oid_to_string
1600 converts the other way.
1602 Change to emit_term() in CQL-to-PQF query translation: when a term has
1603 the /regexp relation modifier, do not process it for leading and
1604 trailing "^" and "*", which have quite different meanings in regular
1607 Attempted fix of bug #976: Segfault in yaz_iconv. The yaz_iconv function
1608 write handlers no longer carries a 'last' parameter. This will make
1609 yaz_iconv flush "less" characters. A flush is performed by call to
1610 yaz_iconv(cd, 0, 0, &outbut, &outbytesleft) .
1612 Definition of wrbuf_diags moved to querytowrbuf.h. Function wrbuf_put_zquery
1613 removed, because function yaz_query_to_wrbuf does the same.
1615 API changes to WRBUF. wrbuf_free removed; replaced by wrbuf_destroy. And
1616 wrbuf_puts no longer appends '\0'. Use wrbuf_cstr to get C-string out.
1618 Deprecated MARC utility functions removed.
1620 Changed prototype of yaz_marc_decode_buf: const char for result and size_t
1623 Branch split: YAZ_2_1_55_branch
1625 --- 2.1.54 2007/03/16
1627 Fix to ZOOM-C so that transparent reconnection is properly handled on
1628 connections that are in asynchronous mode.
1630 Fixed compilation on OpenBSD 4.0.
1632 Large strings in GRS-1 records are now properly displayed in yaz-client.
1634 Added character conversion support for "advancegreek"; based on patch from
1637 Fixed yaz_iconv to return YAZ_ICONV_EINVAL if an incomplete MARC-8 combo
1638 sequence is met. Before the error was not set so it would be unknown.
1640 Adjust yaz-marcdump MARC reader so that it skips until record separator
1643 --- 2.1.52 2007/03/07
1645 ZOOM-C: Removed hardcoded limit of 1024 sockets in ZOOM_event_sys_poll().
1646 Note that ZOOM_event_sys_select() still has the limit due to the fixed-size
1647 fd_set structure used as a bitmask for the FDs to be selected on.
1649 Using ACX_PTHREAD macro to check for POSIX threads.
1651 Fixed have-vsnprintf check.
1653 --- 2.1.50 2007/02/23
1655 Fixes for configure on BSD. Bug #900.
1657 Added snprintf/vsnprintf wrappers for systems that don't have
1658 limits (heavens forbid).
1660 Fixed bug in ZOOM-C's event and task handling. If a ZOOM task was
1661 created before all previous tasks were completed and removed from the
1662 task queue, the new task could be removed by a mistake.
1664 Fixed bug #615: Document retrievalInfo facilities for Frontend Server.
1666 Implemented pass-through CQL-to-PQF conversions. Bug #861.
1668 Fixed bug #832: Problem with MARC/charset in yaz-client.
1670 Fixed bug #668: save command line history for yaz-client.
1672 Fixed bug #830: pkg-config support.
1674 --- 2.1.48 2007/01/23
1676 Extended ZOOM result set options with two options that may be read by
1677 a client: resultSetStatus and presentStatus with values as specified for
1679 http://www.loc.gov/z3950/agency/markup/04.html#Search-status
1681 Fixed bug #827: Using SSL fails on Debian etch.
1683 Fixed bug #826: Weird looking chars for set of MARC records.
1685 Implemented alternative Item Order package for ZOOM. If option "doc" is set,
1686 that is treated as an ItemOrder with itemRequest being an XML document
1687 external. The value of "doc" is the content.
1689 Extended the GFS search facility. New member of bend_search_rr
1690 'estimated_hit_count' signals that hits is known to be an estmate
1691 (higher or lower than real hit count). New member 'partial_resultset'
1692 signals that the search was partial (hit count is lower or equal than
1693 real hit count). For Z39.50, the information is stored in resultSetStatus
1694 member of SearchResponse APDU. For SRU, the information is signalled
1695 via SRU diagnostic 59: "Result set created with valid partial results
1698 Switched from jade/pdfjdaetex to dblatex for Docbook documentation in PDF.
1700 --- 2.1.46 2007/01/13
1702 Implemented bug #806: Deal with HTTP clients sending LF in HTTP headers.
1704 Added ZOOM_connection_peek_event.
1706 Implemented Generic select hook for ZOOM (bug #803). This is achieved with
1707 the following new functions:
1708 ZOOM_event_nonblock, ZOOM_connection_process,
1709 ZOOM_connection_get_{socket,mask,timeout},
1710 ZOOM_connection_fire_event_{timeout,socket}.
1711 The existing blocking event handler, ZOOM_event, is a wrapper for the
1712 + blocking ZOOM_event_sys_{poll,select}.
1714 Implemented function ccl_xml_config which parses XML version of CCL
1715 configuration (bug #798).
1717 Fixed bug #797: yaz_marc_write_xml does not honor character conversion.
1719 Added timings utility (yaz/timing.h)
1721 --- 2.1.44 2007/01/03
1723 Added yaz_marc_write_xml which creates MARCXML/MarcXchange record as
1726 Fixed bug #779: Rotation of apdu.log fails.
1728 Fixed for character set conversions:
1729 Unicode to MARC-8 conversion for certain less preferred UTF-8 sequences.
1730 Honor G1 set in MARC-8 decoding.
1732 --- 2.1.42 2006/12/17
1734 Fixed bug #775: char conversion does not handle Alternative UTF-8
1737 Implemented function yaz_marc_read_line which parses MARC line format
1738 records. There is a wealth of formats out there. So far, this function
1739 reads line records produced by yaz_marc_write_line.
1741 yaz-marcdump's options -x, -X, -I, -e have been replaced with the
1742 more generic and easier to remember(!) options: -i format and -o format
1743 which specifies input format and output format respectively - where
1744 format is one of "marc", "marcxml", "line", "marcxchange".
1746 Added 'check only' option for MARC utilities. Option -n for yaz-marcdump
1747 does not print anything except warnings for records.
1749 For yaz-marcdump, added support for MARC split into files (-s) with a given
1752 Changed the SRU update structures and codecs to reflect the SRU pre 1.0
1753 spec, at http://www.loc.gov/standards/sru/record-update/
1754 This has changed the binary layout of the following structs:
1755 Z_SRW_extra_record, Z_SRW_updateRequest, Z_SRW_updateResponse and
1756 bend_update_rr . Patch by Ko van der Sloot.
1758 Added GFS utility function bend_assoc_is_alive which returns 1 if
1759 association is still alive (client is connected); 0 otherwise (client
1760 closed connection). This allows busy servers to stop working for
1763 Added ziffy: the promiscuous Z39.50 APDU sniffer. until now, ziffy has
1764 been a separate piece of software. This version of ziffy has been modified
1765 to fit with YAZ. ziffy is copyright Rocco Carbone and covered by GPL v2.
1767 Fixed bug #740: Handle SRU records referring to xmlns's outside recordData.
1769 Fixed bug #722: Allow Z39.50 Init Options to be specified / retrieved.
1770 Client code may now interrogate options such as "init_opt_sort" to
1771 find out whether the server claims to support various options.
1773 --- 2.1.40 2006/11/27
1775 Added utilities yaz_{set,get}_esn to set/get element set name from
1778 Removed the build of libyazthread.la. The libyaz.so is the threaded version
1779 of YAZ and has been so since YAZ 2.1.10.
1781 Implemented ZOOM_record_error which returns error information for
1782 record (surrogate diagnostic).
1784 --- 2.1.38 2006/10/31
1786 Updates for SRU Update by Ko van der Sloot:
1787 1. Changed name from "operation" to "action"
1788 2. Fixed that that "recordIdentifier" was called "recordId". Kept the old
1789 versions in the code, marked as 'backward compatible'.
1790 3. Added diagnostics for SRU Update.
1792 Fixed bug #709: Records are fetched in wrong format when tasks are queued.
1794 Fixed bug #707: CQL->RPN ignores lines with leading spaces.
1796 Fixed bug #706: XML hex encoding UTF-8 chars out of range 0-255.
1798 For GFS, fixed problem with SRU diagnostic 'First record position out of
1799 range' being issued for 0 hits.
1801 zoomtst10 part of Windows Build.
1803 --- 2.1.36 2006/10/13
1805 Implemented yaz_filepath_comp which splits a path into file path
1806 components (required by Zebra 2.0.3+).
1808 Change wording of YAZ license to the 'Revised BSD License'. YAZ has used a
1809 BSD inspired license until now so this should not have any real impact on
1810 anybody. See http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php
1812 Fixed bug #687: Missing log lines.
1814 Fixed bug #678: CQL to PQF translation does not preserve double-quote
1817 Fixed bug #689: SRU diagnostics to be added.
1819 Implemented new ZOOM function, ZOOM_connection_is_idle, which checks
1820 whether a connection is idle (no more work do do).
1822 --- 2.1.34 2006/10/04
1824 Change type of optval from long to int for invocation of setsockopt with
1825 the SO_REUSEADDR option. Thanks to Ateeq A. Altaf, Talis.
1827 Added support for specifying the max log file size for the Generic
1828 Frontend Server. The size is given with option -r.
1830 --- 2.1.32 2006/09/21
1832 Fix problem introduced in YAZ 2.1.28 WRT unix sockets in the ZOOM code.
1834 --- 2.1.30 2006/09/17
1836 Fixes for getaddrinfo use, Bugs #655 + #660. These bugs were introduced
1839 Fixed bug in Generic Frontend Server that could cause a server to stop
1840 accepting new connections. Bug only seen on dual CPU Windows 2003 server.
1842 For the generic frontend server, the maximum record size is used as maximum
1843 size of incoming packages (SRU + Z39.50). The value until was previously
1844 only used in Z39.50 Init negotiation and, later, in a session controlled
1845 sizes of records returned. This is controlled using -k option. It can be
1846 specified, per server, with element maximumrecordsize in YAZ' GFS XML config.
1848 --- 2.1.28 2006/09/04
1850 TCP/IP comstack uses getaddrinfo now to resolve names. It should be IPV6
1853 Fixed bug #644: Using Non Reentrant gethostbyname causes SIGSEGV.
1855 New option for yaz-marcdump -lpos=value which allows setting a portion
1856 of MARC header to a certain value.
1858 Fixes for MARC generation when encoded as MARC-8 (bug 642, 643).
1860 ZOOM-C reads option extraArgs. If set the value of extraArgs is appended to
1861 SRU URI (POST/GET). Value must be URL encoded, such as x-id-a=v1&x-id-b=v2 .
1863 --- 2.1.26 2006/08/15
1865 Fixed problem with SRU mode type (soap, get, post) for yaz-client
1868 Fixed problem another problem with ZOOM_EVENT_RECV_RECORD . Bug #626.
1870 --- 2.1.24 2006/08/08
1872 Fixed MARC ISO2709 encoding routines to deal with character set
1875 Minor changes to GFS logging. Database included in search request log
1878 Fixes for ZOOM-C: event ZOOM_EVENT_RECV_RECORD was not generated for
1879 cached/multiple records.
1881 Shared libraries are built by default on Unix+configure.
1883 Changed cql2pqf transformation to use a different evaluation order. The
1884 new order is: always, relation, structure, position, truncation, index
1885 and relationModifier. Old order was: always, relation, relationModifier,
1886 structure, index, position, truncation. Note that the the latter ones
1887 override former ones for identical attributes.. The new scheme means that
1888 it is possible to override any existing attribute with a relationModifier.
1889 And also that it is possible to override everything for the index rule
1890 (except the ones listed in relationModifier). No order is perfect but this
1891 one, we believe, covers more real cases.. The "always" should have been
1892 called "default", since the attributes there can be overridden with all
1895 For Libxml2 and friends, YAZ defines YAZ_HAVE_{XML2,XSLT,EXSLT) in the
1896 compilation phase, but also for yaz-config --cflags output. This allows
1897 us to have public headers with Libxml2 stuff in them . It should also,
1898 eventually, make Libxml2 checks redundant in packages using YAZ, such
1901 --- 2.1.22 2006/06/15
1903 Changed SRU update structure bend_update_rr so that SRU diagnostics are
1904 stored in uri, message and details.. Previously diagnostics were stored
1905 in errcode, errstring. Patch by Ko van der Sloot. Breaks binary
1906 compatibility.. but he's probably the only one affected, so.
1908 Added support for CCL, compiled on the client side, in ZOOM-C. This
1909 is invoked using ZOOM_query_ccl2rpn() with the CCL configuration as
1910 input; the resulting query objects can be used for for searching with
1911 ZOOM_connection_search() and scanning with ZOOM_connection_scan1().
1913 YAZ' configure searches for OpenSSL by default.
1915 SSL comstack uses SL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file rather than
1916 SL_CTX_use_certificate_file. See
1917 http://lists.indexdata.dk/pipermail/yazlist/2006-June/001615.html
1918 for more info. Thanks to Ko van der Sloot.
1920 --- 2.1.20 2006/06/02
1922 Bug #600: SRU GET, POST support for yaz-client. Introduced
1923 command 'sru' which selects method SOAP/GET/POST.
1925 Allow missingValueAction to be specified for the sortspec string -
1926 function yaz_sort_spec. By default, the missing value action is null.
1927 Use ! to specify "abort". Use = followed by stringvalue to specify default
1930 Ensured that Present-handler (if defined) is called in GFS before any call to
1931 fetch-hhndler. This now includes piggy-backed presents as well as SRW/U
1932 searchRetrieve requests.
1934 Documentation for YAZ is now based on the Docbook XML/XSLT using
1935 xsltproc + N Walsh's stylesheets. It means that the CVS version of YAZ
1936 is no longer depending on jade/openjade or docbook-to-man scripts.
1937 PDF is no longer part of the distribution - but can optionally be
1938 made using DSSSL/jadetex or FOP.
1940 Added retrieval handling support in Generic Frontend Server to support
1941 conversion between MARC/XML as well as XSLTtransforms. See
1942 etc/yazgfs.xml for an example.
1944 Added Authentication support to Generic Frontend Server in SRU
1945 mode. Authentication using HTTP Basic is supported, as is the use
1946 of 'x-username' and 'x-password' parameters in the request itself.
1948 Added support for a new character set MARC8s identical to MARC8 except
1949 that it converts combined characters to single Unicode characters in the
1950 Latin-1 range (when possible).
1952 --- 2.1.18 2006/04/24
1954 ASN.1 compiler 0.4: generates brief Doxygen file header for
1955 generated .h/.c files.
1957 Utility yaz_iconv now supports conversion to MARC-8.
1959 New facilities for the MARC module. The reading - and writing of
1960 content are separate methods for the yaz_marc_t handle. The following
1961 read functions are available: yaz_marc_read_iso2709 (Reads MARC in
1962 ISO2709 format), yaz_marc_read_xml (reads MARC in MARCXML/MarcXchange
1963 format). Write functions have prefix yaz_marc_write_.. The existing
1964 utilities yaz_marc_decode_wrbuf and yaz_marc_decode_buf are still
1965 available. Removed support for OAI-MARC and simplexml (not the
1966 simplexml from PHP5).
1968 Added a new ZOOM event type ZOOM_EVENT_END which signals no more events
1969 to be returned for this connection.
1971 --- 2.1.16 2006/03/31
1973 Allow multiple languages and charsets to be specified with
1974 yaz-client. Each item must be separated by comma (NO BLANKS). E.g.
1975 negcharset iso-8859-1,utf-8
1977 Translation of proximity nodes from CQL into PQF now works.
1979 Moved to automake 1.8, 1.9.
1981 Added function yaz_log_set_handler which allows a log handler to be
1982 installed. This handler will be called for all log messages. Output
1983 to file is also produced; but that can be disabled by passing NULL
1984 fname to yaz_log_init_file.
1986 Fixed another problem with MARC-8 -> ISO-8859-1 conversions. Bug #537.
1988 For SRW (including GFS), accept application/soap+xml as content-type
1991 For GFS in SRU mode, an empty stylesheet in SRU URL (&stylesheet=&)
1992 produces NO stylesheet reference even if a default stylesheet is specified
1995 --- 2.1.14 2006/03/14
1997 Updated Windows package to include yazd.dll + yazd.lib for the
1998 Development component.
2000 If the environment variable YAZ_LOG is set, then it is used as a
2001 string indicating the default level of logging to use if not
2002 overridden by calls to yaz_log_init() or yaz_log_init_level(). If
2003 it's not defined, then the manifest constant YLOG_DEFAULT_LEVEL is
2004 used as before. So, for example, to omit warnings from YAZ logging,
2005 export YAZ_LOG=-warn
2007 cql_transform() now map structure and other attributes before indexes,
2008 so that index-specific structures and other attributes can override
2009 defaults. So now a combination of mapping specifications such as:
2011 index.dc.date = 1=date-modified 4=5
2012 does the right thing.
2014 cql_transform() now also respects the "always" mapping specification,
2015 which establishes an initial set of attributes to be used for all
2016 terms except where overridden by more specific attributes associated
2017 with the index, relation or modifier.
2019 Added SRU-GET and SRU-POST support for ZOOM C. Option "sru" specifies
2020 which mode to use; one of "post", "get" or "soap" (SRW, default).
2022 Fixes for yaz_iconv routines: changed trie-based character set conversions
2023 to use only non-negative values for bit fields due to Sun's C compiler not
2024 supporting negative values.
2026 Fixed bug in character set conversion yaz_iconv. Some three byte UTF-8
2027 sequences where not read correctly. Fix by Rustam Usmanov.
2029 Updated win/makefile to use options, settings which makes things
2030 compile with VS C 2005.
2032 --- 2.1.12 2006/02/01
2034 Fixed bug in yaz_oi_update which used incorrect value for categoryValue.
2036 In ZOOM socket code, use select instead of poll on MacOSX.
2038 ZOOM-C now support client-side compilation of CQL into RPN that is
2039 sent to the server, enabling CQL to be used against all Z39.50
2040 servers. Use ZOOM_query_cql2rpn() to set the compiled CQL into a
2041 ZOOM_query object, and submit it using ZOOM_connection_search().
2042 The CQL-to-RPN translation uses a configuration file, the name of
2043 which must be specified in the Connection's "cqlfile" option.
2045 ZOOM-C also support CQL scanning, via the new ZOOM_connection_scan1()
2046 function, which takes as its start-term parameter a ZOOM_query object
2047 (which may have had either CQL or RPN set into it).
2050 --- 2.1.10 2005/11/29
2052 Added ZiNG Update Support. New codecs are defined in srw.h. Extended the
2053 GFS to support this as well. Backend handler, bend_srw_update, does the
2054 update work. Code contributed by Ko van der Sloot.
2056 Allow retrieval of Search Result-1 information in ZOOM by the use of
2057 options that are attached to a result set. ZOOM documentation updated
2060 Fixed bug #416: First/second comb characters not handled in the MARC-8 to
2061 UTF-8 conversion. Patch by Raj Patel.
2063 Added option -m to GFS to control formatting of timestamps in log file.
2065 Added 'exit' as synonym for 'quit' in yaz-client
2067 Added support for specifying SRW resultSetId + resultSetIdleTime in a
2068 Generic Frontend Server's search handler. Refer to include/yaz/backend.h
2069 for the new members. Patch by Ko van der Sloot.
2071 Added support for SRU POST. It is supported for content-type
2072 application/x-www-form-urlencoded only. Patch by Ko van der Sloot.
2074 Do not build the separate Multi-threaded (MT) library libyazthread.la.
2075 Instead make the library libyaz.la multi-threaded. Threading as a whole
2076 can still be disabled by configure option --disable-threads. Previosly,
2077 with older GLIBCs there were problems with MT libs under Apache. This
2078 has now been fixed a long time ago.
2080 Fixed bugs in yaz_log that occurred on Sparc Solaris in Multi-threaded
2083 CQL module modified to be case insensitive for relations/indexes/operations.
2085 Fixed bug in CQL transform code: incorrect value relationModifieder
2088 Added 'show all' command for yaz-client which retrieves all results
2091 Added new yaz-client, xmles, which takes a (private) OID and
2092 a document to be sent as an extended service request.
2094 Describe new yaz-client commands wait_response and set_auto_wait.
2096 Increase TCP/IP listener backlog from 3 (which I am guessing was
2097 copied from the SunOS manual entry way back when) so SOMAXCONN, so
2098 that the socket will queue as many incoming connections as it's able
2099 to handle ongoing connections. In other words, it will never now
2100 refuse a connection that it would be able to handle merely because
2101 it's not got around to accepting() enough of the pending connections
2102 yet. This is the behaviour anyway under Linux, where the listen()
2103 argument is ignored; but not under BSD and on systems such as
2104 MS-Windows that use BSD-derived TCP/IP stacks. The behaviour of
2105 YAZ-based servers should now be uniform across operating systems in
2108 yaz-marcdump uses 64-bit file access on some systems. This is enabled
2109 on Linux and other Unix variants where _FILE_OFSET_BITS=64 is supported.
2110 This allows yaz-marcdump to read large MARC batches (>2 GB).
2112 Modified all YAZ source files - except the source which is auto-generated
2113 by tools - to use spaces rather than TABS. Emacs/VIM trailer added to
2116 Add ZOOM_connection_option_getl() and ZOOM_options_getl(),
2117 corresponding to the existing *_setl() function. These allow option
2118 values containing arbitrary valuues.
2120 Add ZOOM_resultset_sort1(), which should ALWAYS be used in place of
2121 ZOOM_resultset_sort() in new applications. Its behaviour is identical
2122 except that it returns an indicator of whether or not the sort
2123 criterion was accepted (0 for OK, -1 for invalid).
2125 --- 2.1.8 2005/06/07
2127 Fixed bug in yaz_marc_decode_buf. By mistake the routine appended
2128 MARC output rather than returning "new" buffer.
2130 yaz-client warns about unknown init options.
2132 Fixed bug #371: "options concurrentOperations ignores concurrentOperations"
2134 --- 2.1.6 2005/05/24
2136 Added support for SRW sort in Generic Frontend Server. Patch
2137 by Ko van der Sloot. Member srw_sortKeys in bend_search_rr holds
2138 sortKeys - or NULL if none is provided.
2140 Fixed bug #307: It was impossible to specify indefinite/no timeout
2141 for ZOOM_event. Special timeout value -1 now means indefinite timeout
2144 Added support for multiple languages and charsets to be specified in
2145 ZOOM. Each charset/language is separated by a blank. If negotiation is
2146 in effect in init-response, Option
2147 "negotiation-charset-in-effect-for-records" set to 1(true) or 0(false).
2148 Code based on patch by Vasiliy Osadchuk.
2150 Fixed bug #306: infinite recursion that occurred when calling
2151 yaz_log_level_init as the first call (before other log level or
2154 Fixed bug in scan handling in front end server: if preferred-Position-In-
2155 Response was non-present, a NULL pointer referece was performed.
2157 --- 2.1.4 2005/04/26
2159 Changed include/yaz/diagbib1.h and added include/yaz/diagsrw.h with
2160 diagnostic messages+codes for Bib-1 and SRW. Preprocessor defines are
2161 now defined for all those error codes. So instead of putting 109 in
2162 your program you'd use YAZ_BIB1_DATABASE_UNAVAILABLE. The messages
2163 are generated from a .csv - file. See src/bib1.csv and srw/srw.csv.
2165 Modified the yaz-marcdump utility to skip garbage bytes between MARC
2168 Fixed bug - uninitialized memory - due to bad code for fix of bug #272.
2170 Program yaz-client now exits and produces an error message if multiple
2171 Z39.50 servers are specified on the command line (none or one allowed
2174 Program yaz-marcdump skips garbage bytes between ISO2709 records rather
2177 --- 2.1.2 2005/03/16
2179 Fixed bug #273: Update for recent MARC-8 -> UNICODE changes.
2181 Fixed bug #272: Preserve spacing for CCL terms.
2183 --- 2.1.0 2005/03/14
2185 Added support for virtual hosts and multiple backend servers for
2186 the YAZ frontend server. The configution is XML based and
2187 support specificition of CQL to RPN mappings and explain information.
2188 See section "Virtual Hosts" in the YAZ manual.
2190 Extended OPAC display utility. OPAC display utility renders
2191 bibliographic (MARC) record as well. Added yaz_opac_decode_wrbuf
2192 to supplement yaz_marc_decode_wrbuf.
2194 Fixed a bug in MARC decoder that could caused it to crash for some
2195 invalid MARC records. More diagnostics and warnings where added in
2196 XML output (warnings, etc are stored in comments).
2198 --- 2.0.34 2005/02/08
2200 Fixes for UNIX domain sockets. Bug #261.
2202 Fixes for MARC-8 to UTF-8 conversion. Bugs #258 and #260.
2204 Fixed bug #263: YAZ MARCXML dump shows extra spaces after control fields.
2205 Added yaz_marc_subfield_str which defines subfield lead string which is
2206 used in YAZ_MARC_LINE format. Default string is blank+$. Added
2207 yaz_marc_endline_str which defines end of fields string used in
2208 YAZ_MARC_LINE format. Default string is newline.
2210 Experimental support for MarcXChange. This format can be produced
2211 by yaz-marcdump and is implemented in yaz_marc_decode - functions.
2212 http://www.bs.dk/standards/MarcXchange.xsd
2214 Added yaz-client commands scansize that sets maximum number of
2215 entries to be returned by scan.
2217 --- 2.0.32 2005/01/11
2219 Added support for SRW scan in yaz-client and Generic Frontend Server.
2221 * Added whereInList member to SRW Scan Term.
2223 * Changed Z_SRW_scanRequest to be able to carry both CCL and PQF.
2225 Fixed NMEM system to return aligned blocks on the smallest boundaries
2226 that are suitably aligned for all possible types on the particular
2227 architecture YAZ is being built for.
2229 --- 2.0.30 2005/01/04
2231 Fixed numerious warnings that was issued with newer versions of GCC.
2233 Fixed NMEM system to return aligned blocks on 8 byte boundaries rather
2234 than 4 bytes, since 4 may not be enough on some systems such as GCC 3.4.3
2237 Make YAZ Generic Frontend Server slightly faster.
2239 Enhance (and reduce) logging for Generic Frontend Server.
2241 Revert YAZ log system so that it flushes every write operation
2242 by default. (YAZ 2.0.26 and earlier verisons did that). Bug #240.
2244 Modified the YAZ logging system. The LOG level defines use YLOG_ prefix
2245 instead of LOG_, due to name clash with syslog(3). LOG_ are still
2246 present. New applications should define YAZ_USE_NEW_LOG=1 - this
2247 will effectively disable old definitions.
2249 --- 2.0.28 2004/11/09
2251 Added yaz_log_time_format which specifies log format using
2254 Added yaz_log_module_level which returns mask for a module. Value
2255 is non-zero mask a if module is enabled; zero if disabled.
2257 * Fixed bug #148: CQL parser may leak. A few prototypes were changed
2258 in include/yaz/cql.h.
2260 Fixed bug #176: Dont throw diagnostics on empty SRU args.
2262 Fixed bug #175: surrogate diagnostics in SRW lacking NS.
2264 Fixed bug #172: RPM builds does not enable SSL.
2266 Doxyfile.in part of dist. Doxyfile generated by configure.
2268 Configure aborts if any of --with-xml2, --with-openssl, --enable-tcpd
2269 are given and the corresponding component does not exist.
2271 Extend CCL documentation in YAZ reference. Describe r=r.
2273 --- 2.0.26 2004/10/01
2275 Fixed MARC->MARCXML conversion to properly deal with
2276 fields, subfields, indicators having non-ASCII characters.
2278 Fixed MARC->MARCXML conversion so that ASCII control characters
2279 except TAB,CR,LF are removed from resulting XML (XML 1.0 does not
2282 Added YAZ GFS support for conversion from Z39.50 surrogate
2283 diagnostics to SRW surrogate diagnostics.
2285 Bug fix: YAZ GFS did not return schema in explainResponse.
2287 --- 2.0.25 2004/09/30
2289 The YAZ GFS when converting SRW/SRU requests to Z39.50 structures
2290 now converts recordSchema to elementSetName as well as schema URI.
2292 Fixed bug in COMSTACK that prevented HTTP request packages from being
2295 --- 2.0.24 2004/09/29
2297 Added CCL facility r=r "range" which is similar to r=o "ordered" but
2298 does not require white-space before and after the dash in a range, e.g.
2299 x=-1990 is equivalent to x <= 1990 iff r=r, but equivalent to x= -1980
2302 Fixed a few AC_TRY_LINK configure tests that did not operate properly
2303 due to new GCC removing "redundant" code.
2305 Added yaz-client commands scanpos and scanstep that sets preferred
2306 position and step-size for scan.
2308 Macro YAZ_INIT in yaz.m4: option --with-yazconfig renamed to --with-yaz.
2310 Added CCL utility ccl_qual_buf which parses one or more CCL
2311 spec lines in a buffer.
2313 Added CCL utility ccl_qual_line which adds CCL qualifier line consisting
2314 of name and value - ignoring empty lines and comments.
2316 On Windows, the debug DLL/import lib is now named yazd.{dll,lib}.
2318 Added odr_get_element_path which returns current element path for an
2319 ODR handle. This utility is useful in error handling or user-defined
2322 Added ODR_PRINT utility odr_set_stream which is is a more generic
2323 alternative to odr_setprint. odr_set_stream takes a stream handle, pointer
2324 to a write function and pointer to close function. The close function - if
2325 non-NULL - will be called during odr_destroy.
2327 Fixed bug in CCL parser where truncation char was not removed from
2328 right side when truncation=both was in effect.
2330 Fixed CQL parser to use unsigned chars for isxxx from ctype.h due
2333 --- 2.0.23 2004/08/11
2335 Fix buffer overrun in CQL parser when dealing with proximity (%).
2337 Fixes for MARC-8 in yaz_iconv character set utilies. The MARC-8
2338 to UTF-8/UCS conversion is now only based on codetables.xml.
2340 yaz_marc_decode_buf sets leader pos 9 to "a" for MARCXML output.
2342 --- 2.0.22 2004/08/06
2344 Add support for more "commit changes" in ZOOM (uses Extended Services).
2346 For yaz-client, command set_marcdump <file> / -m <file> dumps SUTRS/XML/..
2349 Yet another small fix for configure of SSL.
2351 --- 2.0.21 2004/05/14
2353 Fix SSL libs for configure when --with-openssl=DIR is given.
2355 --- 2.0.20 2004/05/10
2357 Add autoconf m4 macro YAZ_DOC for YAZ documentation setup (docbook).
2359 SSL comstack now uses yaz.pem certificate file on server side
2360 by default. Certificate filename can be configured by calling
2361 comstack function cs_set_ssl_certificate_file before cs_bind is used.
2363 Fix bug regarding multiple calls to ZOOM_connection_connect.
2365 Implement cs_set_ssl_ctx which sets SSL_CTX for SSL comstack.
2367 Do not create SSL_CTX in cs_create (ssl_type). Create in tcpip_bind,
2368 tcpip_rcvconnect instead. This allows user to set custom SSL_CTX.
2370 ZOOM now allows inspection of X509 peer certificate for verification.
2371 The X509 buffer is retrived by reading ZOOM option "sslPeerCert".
2373 Removed libyazssl.la. When SSL is enabled, libyaz.la has SSL support and
2374 all programs have too (yaz-ztest, yaz-client, zoom..). May not be
2375 as "modular" but it simplifies things.
2377 Added cs_get_peer_certificate to that returns peer X509 PEM.
2379 Added cs_get_ssl that returns SSL handle (SSL *) for SSL comstack; returns
2380 NULL if SSL is unavailable.
2382 Documentation about MARC decoding tools.
2384 Fix --disable-tcpd to really disable tcpd. Patch by Robin H. Johnson.
2386 --- 2.0.19 2004/03/30
2388 Rename CHANGELOG to NEWS to follow GNU style packing.
2390 Fix bug with missing initialization of member in init_diagnostics.
2391 This bug affects threaded version of GFS server.
2393 --- 2.0.18 2004/03/20
2395 Use wrbuf_xmlputs_n instead of wrbuf_write_cdata to avoid clash with
2398 Ensure zlib.dll is packed with Windows install.
2400 --- 2.0.17 2004/03/17
2402 Fix encoding of xsd:string to use text instead of CDATA.
2404 Fix endless loop in CQL parser with unbalanced ".
2406 Use a more compact way to store MARC-8 conversion tables.
2408 --- 2.0.16 2004/03/16 Debian only
2410 Oleg Kolobov Fixed a bug in yaz_iconv regarding conversion to
2413 Update CQL parser to use new CQL 1.1 modifiers for booleans and
2418 --- 2.0.15 2004/03/01
2420 Another fix for decoding of XML packed records.
2422 --- 2.0.14 2004/02/25
2424 Fixes for Chunked encoding. White space not ignored after length spec.
2426 Update NS and use default NS for SRW diagnostic elements.
2428 --- 2.0.13 2004/02/23
2430 Implement ZOOM_resultset_cache_reset which resets record cache.
2432 Implement ZOOM_resultset_sort which sorts a result set.
2434 Implement chunked HTTP transfer.
2436 For SSL, use -lssl -lcrypto on systems that don't have pkg-config.
2438 --- 2.0.12 2004/02/16
2440 Added member 'schema' to bend_explain_rr structure so that backend
2441 can specify explain record identifier. Defaults to Zeerex 2.0.
2443 Fix encoding of OID's of form 1.0.X. Bug introduced in 2.0.11.
2445 --- 2.0.11 2004/02/16
2447 * SRW/SRU 1.1 updates: updated diagnostic in srw.h to use uri instead
2450 Added init command for yaz-client which sends "extra" init request.
2452 Fixed two bugs in OID codec - ber_oidc. Throw error when encoding/decoding
2453 bad truncated OID. Fix decoding of OID X.Y... when X=2 and Y>39.
2455 Fixed a bug in ASN.1 compiler that caused Type-1 Operator codec to fail.
2457 Make ZOOM error code for "invalid query".
2459 Fixed compilation for SSL which wasn't properly enabled for all platforms.
2461 --- 2.0.10 2004/02/05
2463 For yaz.m4, allow second argument for YAZ_INIT to hold minimal version of
2466 * SRW/SRU 1.1 updates. Diagnostic code now a URI.
2468 Added option -p <file> to make Generic Frontend Server to write PID file.
2470 Added option -D to put Generic Frontend Server in background on its own.
2472 Make ZOOM C recognize option "password". If unset, "pass" is used
2473 (for backwards compatibility).
2475 Fixed a bug in Generic Frontend Server that could make it crash if a
2476 client sets characterSetNegotation bit, but didn't pass negotiation stuff
2479 New YAZ client command, zversion, that sets Z39.50 version (1,2,3..).
2480 Must be issued before open, in order to be in effect.
2482 --- 2.0.9-6 2004/01/12 Debian/Windows
2484 Make the SRU server more picky WRT unknown params, etc.
2486 Bug fix: ZOOM scan response didn't return displayTerm - when present.
2488 New YAZ client command, options, that sets Z39.50 options.
2490 New utility functions yaz_init_opt_{encode,decode} to encode/decode Z39.50
2491 options from a string of tokens (one token for each option bit).
2493 Update SRW diagnostic code messages.
2495 --- 2.0.9-5 2004/01/07 Debian/Windows
2497 Handle user defined stylesheet for SRW/SRU.
2499 --- 2.0.9-4 2004/01/06 Debian/Windows
2501 Fix bug in decoding of Content-Length.
2503 --- 2.0.9-3 2004/01/06 Debian/Windows
2505 Fix a bug with decoding of XML packed records.
2507 --- 2.0.9-2 2004/01/05 Debian only
2509 Allow empty ODR (NMEM=0) for odr_oiddup and odr_getoidbystr.
2511 Fix bug in SRW/SRU diagnostics decoding.
2513 --- 2.0.9 2004/01/05
2515 Fixed bug in Generic Frontend Server which could drop records exceeding
2516 preferred message size. Reported and fixed by Irina Dijour.
2518 Fixed calculation of package size for structured records in Generic
2519 Frontend Server. Reported and fixed by Irina Dijour.
2521 Fixed namespace for SRW/SRU diagnostics.
2523 Fixed SEGV in yaz-client that occured for HTTP connection errors.
2525 --- 2.0.8 2003/12/22
2527 * SRW/SRU 1.1. Since the Namespace has changed for SRW/SRU, it means that
2528 this version is incompatible with version 1.0 and older YAZ SRW/SRU
2531 CQL changes to reflect recent changes to the specification:
2532 * Documentation talks about context sets instead of index sets.
2533 * Documentation talks about indexes instead of qualifiers.
2534 * The CQL-to-PQF transformer's configuration file now uses
2535 "index.set.name = <attributes>" instead of the old form
2536 "qualifier.set.name = <attributes>". (Both forms are still
2537 understood but the latter is deprecated.)
2538 * CQL terms with no explicit index specified are now interpreted as
2539 cql.serverChoice instead of srw.serverChoice (which of course
2540 behaves exactly the same.)
2542 --- 2.0.7 2003/12/16
2544 MARC conversion can now generate ISO2709 output in another
2545 character set. yaz-marcdump uses this facility if you invoke it
2548 Added missing C decl macros for include/yaz/{soap.h,srw.h,cql.h}, so that
2549 functions from there can be used from C++.
2551 --- 2.0.6 2003/12/04
2553 Frontend server now transfers memory from decoded packages to stream
2556 NMEM now clears freed blocks with 'Y' (hex 59) to force bad memory
2557 references to show up.
2559 ZOOM-C now supports standard ZOOM option names as described in v1.4 of
2560 the ZOOM Abstract API. The older names for the same options are still
2561 also supported for the benefit of old applications.
2563 ZOOM-C supports "implementationId" and "implementationVersion" options
2564 to go along with "implementationName". These allow the user code to
2565 specify identification strings to be sent to servers.
2566 Add OID for the new ExtLite attribute set.
2568 Add OIDs for NACSIS-CATP, FINMARC2000 and MARC21-fin record-syntaxes,
2569 as requested/supplid by Ere Maijala <ere@atp.fi>
2571 For generic frontend server, reverse the order of
2572 "toolkit-supplied / application-supplied" strings sent as implementationId,
2573 Name and Version. Also, remove the spaces around the slash. This brings
2574 the GFS in line with the behaviour of ZOOM-C on the client side.
2576 Add function ZOOM_scanset_display_term.
2578 yaz-client shows scan displayTerm if present.
2580 Utility yaz-iconv is now installed by default along with the man page
2583 Extend configure check for OpenSSL to use pkg-config where available (such
2586 Incorporate patch by Morten Bogeskov which allows a Unix file socket
2587 server to specify uid/gid/mask for socket using the format
2588 unix:[user=uid,][group=gid,][umask=mask,]file=path
2589 If file= is omitted the existing format is assumed, e.g.
2591 in which case the mask is 0666 (rw for everybody).
2593 Major restructure of YAZ source. All source in libyaz is in src directory.
2594 Programs in client (yaz-client), ztest (yaz-ztest), zoom (zoom programs),
2595 util (utility programs such as ASN.1 compiler, yaz-marcdump).
2597 Added man page for utility yaz-marcdump (used to be called marcdump).
2598 yaz-marcdump is installed by 'make install'.
2600 Fixed a memory leak in Generic Frontend Server that occurred when decoding
2601 of incoming package failed.
2603 Fixed a potential DOS attack vulnerability in COMSTACK/ODR.
2605 Change prototype of odr_perror: add const to message string.
2607 New function yaz_log_reopen which reopens log file (for log rotate, etc.)
2609 * Blocking parameter for COMSTACK cs_create is now a bit mask rather
2610 than a blocking flag. Bit 0 is set for blocking, reset for non-blocking.
2611 Bit 1 is set if cs_addrstr should avoid DNS lookup; reset for full
2612 DNS lookup. There should not be any compatibility problems with this
2613 assuming that blocking=1 or 0 is used.
2615 Fix bad reference in UNIX comstack in function cs_addrstr.
2617 Fix for compilation on AIX.
2619 The generic front-end server (server/seshigh.c) now supports returning
2620 Init diagnostics to the client in User-information-field, in
2621 accordance with Z35.90 Implementor Agreement 5 (Returning diagnostics
2624 --- 2.0.4 2003/09/04
2626 Allow any CQL relation (not just all,any,exact,scr).
2628 Fixes for OCLC UI ASN.1 to make it work with SilverPlatter targets
2629 that features the same UI.
2631 Implemented command update0 in YAZ client which is equivalent to
2632 update but uses old of Ext Update ASN.1.
2634 Use OID 1.2.840.10003.15.1000.81.1 for privately defined charsets
2635 in charset negotiation. Added VAL_ID_CHARSET in oid.h.
2636 Previously no OID was used for this info.
2638 ZOOM uses smallSetUpperBound=1 instead of 0 for piggyback searches.
2639 It apparantely upsets EBSCO Publishing IR Z39.50 Server which
2640 returns 'malformed search term' otherwise.
2642 SortResponse member resultCount now set to NULL in sort handler of
2645 OPAC support ZOOM. ZOOM_record_get returns OPAC info (as XML) if
2648 Add three new utility functions for translating OIDs between various
2649 formats -- symbolic name such as "Usmarc", minus-1-terminated int
2650 arrays and dotted strings such as "1.2.840.10003.9.5.1":
2651 int *oid_name_to_oid(oid_class oclass, const char *name, int *oid);
2652 char *oid_to_dotstring(const int *oid, char *oidbuf);
2653 char *oid_name_to_dotstring(oid_class oclass, const char *name, char *oidbuf);
2655 Reverted modifications for ES Update definition for z_IU0Update
2656 (OID 1.2.840.10003.9.5.1 and 1.2.840.10003.9.5). The definition
2657 is back to YAZ 2.0.2.
2659 String value attributes for CCL parser.
2661 Support for OCLC's locally registered "OCLC-UserInformation" PDU,
2662 which their FirstSearch server returns in Init responses, sometimes
2663 carrying useful diagnostic information when Init fails. This has the
2664 OID 1.2.840.10003.10.1000.17.1 and is defined in the file
2665 "z39.50/oclcui.asn", where its definition is somewhat different from
2666 what OCLC document on their web-site, as required to interoperate with
2669 Support for anonymous authentication in yaz-client. Use the command
2672 * Fix the OID of the Index Data-local "admin" Extended Service from
2673 1.2.840.10003.9.81.1 to 1.2.840.10003.9.1000.81.1. The omission of
2674 the 1000, which indicates a locally-defined OID, was a mistake.
2676 --- 2.0.3 2003/06/20
2678 Fix CCL directive @case handling so that it affects string match for
2679 both CCL keywords and qualifiers.
2681 * ESFormat-Update updates. Packages with OID 1.2.840.10003.9.5.1 and
2682 1.2.840.10003.9.5 are now handled by the same decoder z_IU0Update .
2683 Decoder has been updated with ASN.1 changes as listed in
2684 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/defns/updateES.html
2685 Note that the "latest" DB Update, OID 1.2.840.10003.9.5.1.1 , handler
2686 z_IUUpdate, remains unchanged.
2688 ZOOM_record_get may now return a record in a specific character set.
2689 For type use "form; charset=from[,to]" where form (render, xml, ..) ,
2690 "from" is the character set of record as returned by target. "to" is
2691 the character set to be returned. If omitted, "to" is UTF-8.
2693 YAZ ASN.1 compiler renamed from yaz-comp to yaz-asncomp
2695 New ODR utility, odr_getelement, which returns name of element for
2696 which encoding/decoding failed.
2698 Fixed ODR so that it returns error code OREQUIRED rather than ONONE
2699 in cases where a required element was omitted.
2701 Bug fix: some MARC8 sequences were not converted.
2703 New ZOOM option "step" which specifies number of records to be
2704 retrieved in one chunk. Used in conjunction with "start" and "count".
2706 SRW support for yaz-client. Use scheme http: to use it, e.g.
2709 yaz-client no longer does (un)intelligent character set conversions
2710 by default. Can be enabled with charset and marc_charset commands.
2712 xmalloc trace fix for 64-bit systems such as DEC alpha.
2714 Solaris 2.6 compile fix.
2716 New function, cql_strerror() translates SRW error codes, as returned
2717 by cql_transform_error(), into human-readable English strings. Used
2718 in yaz-client diagnostics when appropriate.
2720 New CQL2RPN query-type for the command-line yaz-client, parses CQL and
2721 converts it into a type-1 query which is sent to the server. This
2722 makes CQL available for use with all Z-servers, as opposed to the tiny
2723 minority that can handle CQL queries themselves.
2725 --- 2.0.2 2003/04/28
2727 New Debian package layout similar to the Redhat Package layout.
2729 New ZOOM events ZOOM_EVENT_RECV_{RECORD,SEARCH} for receiving a record
2730 and search result respectively.
2732 --- 2.0.1 2003/04/25
2734 Redhat package is now several packages: libyaz (runtime libraries),
2735 libyaz-devel (development and documentation, and yaz (utility programs).
2736 Package spec file by Morten Bogeskov.
2738 New member 'schema' in struct bend_fetch_rr which the name of requested
2739 schema (SRW/SRU) for record (or NULL if none was given). The fetch
2740 handler MAY set this to reflect the schema of the returned record.
2742 New member 'display_term' in struct scan_entry. GFS now sets member entries
2743 and allocates scan entries to be filled by user scan handler. In previous
2744 version, entries member was allocated by the scan handler. That still works,
2745 but the GFS will ignore member display_term - assuming it was NOT set by
2746 the handler. The fact that the GFS now allocates the entries both allows
2747 for new members and makes a scan handler easier to write.
2749 Fix CQL lex buffer overflow.
2751 SRW/SRU recordPacking. For SRW default recordPacking is string. For
2752 SRU default recordPacking is string.
2754 SRU protocol support for frontend server.
2756 Fix compile bug for systems that have nl_langinfo but CODESET undefined.
2758 Added missing PQF transform rules for <= and >= . Thanks to Peter Popovics.
2760 Added scan for the ZOOM shell (zoomsh).
2764 * String Identifers for Schemas (Amendment 5).
2765 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/amend/am5.html
2766 Old definition for schema
2767 Odr_oid *schema; /* OPT */
2772 Z_InternationalString *uri;
2773 #define Z_Schema_oid 1
2774 #define Z_Schema_uri 2
2777 * resultCount parameter to Sort Response (Amendment 1).
2778 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/amend/am1.html
2780 Support for SRW 1.0 over HTTP. This is an optional feature and
2781 requires libxml2 to operate. Enable SOAP by specifying --with-xml2
2784 Generic frontend server supports HTTP/SOAP/SRW and Z39.50/BER
2785 on the same port. SRW SearchRetrieveRequests are mapped
2786 to bend_init,bend_search,bend_fetch,bend_close.
2788 Z39.50 Query Type-104 added - to facilitate CQL within Z39.50.
2790 CQL support. Source is directory 'cql'. CQL is supported in ZOOM
2791 (both SRW and Z39.50) and the YAZ client (Z39.50 only).
2793 ZOOM connections are SRW based if schem http is used for hostname
2794 in connect, e.g. z = ZOOM_connection_new("http://myserver");
2795 ZOOM_query may be of type CQL, e.g. ZOOM_query_cql(q, "dc.title=x");
2797 CCL proximity operators !n, %n converts to PQF @prox 0 n 1 2 k 2
2798 and @prox 0 n 0 1 k 2 respectively, meaning: exlusion=false,
2799 distance=n, order=true/false, relation=le, prox unit=word. If
2800 n is omitted, distance 1 is used.
2802 Fixed problem with C compiler include path in wrong order.
2804 For TCP/IP COMSTACK, set recv buffer to an appropriate "large" value
2805 on Solaris. Patch from Ko van der Sloot.
2807 New MARC decode API. All new functions operate on a yaz_marc_t
2808 handle. The most important new functions are: yaz_marc_create,
2809 yaz_marc_decode_{buf,wrbuf}, yaz_marc_destroy, .. to create handler,
2810 decode and destroy respectively. Decoder can produce formats
2811 MARC line, simple XML, OAI MARC and MARC XML (LoC). See
2812 include/yaz/marcdisp.h.
2814 YAZ Iconv utility now supports MARC8 decoding (marc8.c). Converts
2815 to UTF-8, UCS-32, wchar_t or Latin-1.
2817 * Prototypes for yaz_iconv_-functions moved to separate header
2818 include/yaz/yaz-iconv.h.
2820 Make a few private functions 'static' in unix.c. This prevents
2821 duplicate unix_close in PHP with YAZ and imap. PHP Bug 20977.
2823 For ZOOM connection, the options targetImplementation{Id,Name,Version}
2824 are set when Init Response is received.
2826 New function ZOOM_connection_error_x similar to ZOOM_connection_error
2827 but returns diagnostic set as well.
2829 New function yaz_strerror which is a portable wrapper for
2830 strerror/strerror_r/GetLastMessage.
2832 * ZOOM_record_get supports type "xml" in which case MARC XML (from LOC)
2833 is returned for MARC. If type is "oai", then OAI MARC is returned.
2835 Fix creation of lib/yaz-config so it works if srcdir != objdir. Patch
2838 --- 1.9.2 2002/11/26
2840 yaz_marc_decode uses OAI MARC as XML format for ISO2709 records.
2842 Fix bad race conditions on SIGTERM and terminate gracefully in
2845 Move retrieval (data1) module to Zebra since nobody seems to be
2848 Add GRS-1 render for ZOOM using same format as yaz-client.
2850 --- 1.9.1 2002/10/05
2852 Added man pages: yaz-client(1), yaz-ztest(8), yaz(7), zoomsh(1).
2854 Fix broken ESpec handling in data1 module.
2856 SGML reader parses comments and makes them part of the data1 tree.
2858 Added several type casts so that YAZ compiles as C++ code.
2860 ZOOM didn't handle PDU encoding failures properly.
2862 Added more Bib-1 diagnostics (approved extensions).
2864 GNU configure: better check for iconv.
2866 More portable use of accept, getpeername. Check for socklen_t. Use
2867 int/size_t if socklen_t is not defined.
2871 PQF parser rejects bad queries - including those with extra
2872 characters in them. PQF parser used to silently ignore that.
2873 Cleaner API for PQF added, which allows you to get detailed
2874 error information for bad queries (see yaz/pquery.h).
2876 Fixed bug in ZOOM_record_get for type "database".
2878 Implemented mini iconv library supporting conversions between
2879 UTF-8, UCS4, UCS4LE and ISO-8859-1. Implemented in util/siconv.c.
2881 * Removed XML reader (d1_expat.c). It's part of Zebra instead.
2883 --- 1.8.9 2002/08/20
2885 Fixed ZOOM C record cache so that preferredRecordSyntax and
2886 elementSetName is used to check for already fetched records.
2888 --- 1.8.8 2002/08/02
2890 Added three members in bend_initrequest structure to facilitate
2891 character set negotiation.
2893 Fixed a bug in frontend server that could cause indefinite
2894 loops under rare conditions.
2896 Revised character set utilities (charneg.h) so that encoding
2897 UCS-4, UCSA-4, UTF-16 and UTF-8 are encoded non-privately.
2899 For PQF, directive @term <type> sets term type for Scan/Search.
2900 Here <type> is general, string, numeric, null. The term type
2901 is inherited - just like @attr.
2903 New call odr_set_charset that sets character set conversion for
2904 international-strings on a ODR stream. Prototype is:
2905 int odr_set_charset(ODR o, const char *to, const char *from);
2906 The InternationalString is still represented as C string in YAZ
2907 so native strings of type UTF-8, ASCII, etc. will work (UTF-16
2908 won't). On the protocol level, you can use any encoding.
2910 Support for UNIX sockets in ZOOM.
2912 Solaris recv sometimes returns errno == ENOENT. It is treated as
2913 EINPROGRESS. COMSTACK patch by Ko van der Sloot.
2915 New COMSTACK of type UNIX Socket. Use "unix:/path" as address for
2916 both client and server. Code by Morten Bogeskov.
2918 --- 1.8.7 2002/05/22
2920 On Windows ZOOM functions are of type __stdcall rather than __cdecl, so
2921 that they can be used directly from Visual Basic. You must recompile
2922 your windows APP if you're using ZOOM.
2924 Character Set and Language Negotiation(3) for ZOOM API and YAZ client.
2925 Commands "lang" and "charset" sets language and character set respectively.
2926 Options "lang" and "charset" is interpreted by the ZOOM API. Note, these
2927 are not part of the official ZOOM spec) All is due to Oleg Kolobov.
2929 Attributes from multiple CCL fields may be OR'ed rather than merged
2930 using directive "@field or". Fields are still merged by default -
2931 equivalent to "@field merge".
2933 Fixed bug in ZOOM connect that occurred on OpenBSD (maybe others). Patch
2936 Fixed bug in zget for parameter ExtendedServicesResponse.
2940 --- 1.8.6 2002/03/25
2942 Added PQF feature: '@attr type=value' may be written as '@type=value'.
2944 Client displays USR.1:SearchResult-1 (hits per term).
2946 Additional Search Info for search in Generic Frontend Server.
2948 Fixed CCL parsing of "field=s".
2950 WIN32 installer - using the excellent NSIS software from nullsoft.
2952 Fixed CCL parsing of "field = - <number>".
2954 Added function yaz_marc_decode that decodes MARC for line mode
2955 display or XML (similar to that used by JZKit).
2957 Fixed BER decoding of OPTIONAL CHOICE. The bug didn't affect the
2958 Z39.50. But ISO/ILL was, however.
2960 Added patch by Rustam T. Usmanov that implements Z39.50 duplicate
2961 detection service (Z39.50-1995 Amendment 2) and Language Negotiation (3).
2963 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/amend/am2.html
2964 http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/defns/charneg-3.html
2966 --- 1.8.5 2002/02/03
2968 New YAZ client features: Command completion and new commands:
2969 push_command, set_apdufile, set_marcdump, set_cclfields, register_oid.
2970 Code provided by Jacob Poulsen.
2972 New call oid_trav, that visits all registered OIDs via callback.
2974 Function ZOOM_record_get now returns const char pointer rather than
2975 void pointer. It saves a lot of type casts.
2977 For YAZ client, command "auth" now allows you to set authentication
2978 in IdPass style. It is enabled when three tokens are given - order
2979 is user, group and password.
2981 Fix memory leaks in MARC record handling for ZOOM.
2983 New option for YAZ client, -k <kilobytes> that sets
2984 maximum record size. Similar to -k option for generic frontend
2985 server and yaz-ztest.
2987 More fixes for scan. Non-zero stepSize handled. OID's fixes.
2989 Prefix query parser reports "fail" when bad attribute set is given.
2991 Fix in MARC decoder. Proximity logging. Fix for attribute set
2992 in scan handler for server. Patches by Shigeru Ishida.
2994 SSL/COMSTACK updates. cs_rcvconnect completes SSL handshake. ZOOM
2997 Configure option --with-openssl=<dir> now works when a directory is
2998 specified. Patch provided by Morten Bogeskov.
3000 New option for YAZ client, -u <auth>, that sets authentication.
3002 ZOOM fix: error information was sometimes "missing", since error
3003 was cleared/reset too when it shouldn't.
3005 ZOOM_record_get returns ISO2709 buffer when "raw" is given.
3007 --- 1.8.4 2002/01/04
3009 Scan for ZOOM API. New object ZOOM_scanset. New functions
3010 ZOOM_connection_scan, ZOOM_scanset_size, ZOOM_scanset_term and
3011 ZOOM_scanset_destroy.
3013 New ZOOM function, ZOOM_connection_last_event, that returns type
3014 of last event (such as "receive data", "send data", "apdu received",
3017 New ZOOM option, schema, that specifies schema for retrieval.
3019 New CCL feature. Qualifiers can be aliases for one or more
3020 other qualifiers (if more than one is given, OR is used).
3022 ZOOM uses named result sets if target supports it.
3024 Two new YAZ client commands: . (dot, which sources a script of YAZ
3025 client commands), and ! (to execute shell command.). Implemented
3028 Working on Debian packages.
3030 --- 1.8.3 2001/11/19
3032 YAZ client enables named result sets only if target supports it.
3034 *** ZOOM. Prefix for ZOOM definitions changed from Z3950_ to ZOOM_.
3036 * ZOOM. Removed Z3950_connection_host. Use Z3950_connection_option_get
3037 with key="host" to get same result.
3039 * ZOOM. Added Z3950_record_clone and removed Z3950_resultset_get.
3040 Function Z3950_resultset_record(s) returns references to records
3041 "owned" by resultset. To become owner use Z3950_record_clone.
3043 Function z_ext_record handles Extended Services. Thanks to
3046 --- 1.8.2 2001/11/12
3048 CCL Parser fix: ignore token comma when dealing with and-lists.
3050 Documentation updates for COMSTACK.
3052 * ZOOM changes. Query object renamed from Z3950_search to Z3950_query.
3053 Changed prototype Z3950_records. For some functions, int parameters
3054 were changed to size_t.
3056 TCP/IP COMSTACK no longer uses getprotobyname to avoid memory leak
3059 New MARC decode/display function, marc_display_exl, which properly rejects
3060 non-ISO2709 records. YAZ client uses it.
3062 --- 1.8.1 2001/10/29
3064 Fix bug: local attribute set wasn't set correctly in PQF strings.
3068 * Old Z39.50 codecs no longer supported.
3070 Added ZOOM C binding. See http://zoom.z3950.org/
3072 Renamed states for COMSTACKs to avoid confusion with events.
3074 Implemented cs_look and proper cs_rcvconnect.
3076 Fixed COMSTACK error that occurred on HPUX. Fix by Giannis Kosmas.
3078 Configure detects POSIX threads on OpenBSD.
3080 When sort flag 'i' was specified in yaz-client the caseSensitivy flag
3081 was set to a wrong value. Thanks to Robert Sanderson for reporting this.
3083 When error is returned from present handler, non-surrogate diagnostic
3084 is returned in present response (and fetch handler is no longer called).
3086 * Minor adjustments to pquery parser (PQF). Token characters may be
3087 escaped by using backslash (C-style).
3089 PQF parser allows string attribute values to be specified. For @attr,
3090 non-numeric characters after the equal-sign are treated as strings
3091 (e.g. @attr 9=title).
3093 CCL trunction character may be defined (@truncation in file)
3095 * function zget_ExtendedServicesRequest sets waitAction to
3096 waitIfPossible (was wait).
3098 Added cs_set_blocking to set change blocking mode of a COMSTACK. Thanks
3101 CCL operator names may be set in field definition files (CCL_bibset).
3102 See ccl/bib1 for an example.
3104 Fixes in ASN.1 compiler for C++ compatibility.
3106 * Renamed members "and" and "or" in struct Z_Operator to "op_and"
3107 and "op_or" to avoid conflict with C++.
3109 Fixed problem with GNU readline detection on Redhat 7.0.
3111 Added step-size for Scan backend handler.
3113 Fixed bug that made the frontend server crash when no attribute
3114 set was specified for scan.
3116 Front-end server automatically switches to original working directory
3117 when installed as an NT service. Previously -w had to be specified to
3120 Added extended attributes for retrieval module (data1), so that data1
3121 records carry d1_readXML/SGML attributes. d1_read also supports
3122 null-data rules ( <tag/>)
3124 On UNIX when POSIX threads are available, a separate library libyazthread
3125 is created. Programmers should link with that library and the yaz library
3126 when using threads. The reason for the split was that some applications
3127 on Linux, such as Apache, doesn't work well when using shared objects that
3130 Added SSL support for the COMSTACK. You start yaz-client and yaz-ztest
3131 (or any frontend server) in SSL mode by specifying ssl: followed by
3132 address. Only tested on UNIX.
3134 Added feature for CCL module. Virtual structure s=al or s=ol generates
3135 and-list and or-list respectively instead of phrase search.
3139 * Added prefix "yaz_" for the functions log_init.., log_file.. and
3140 log_mask_str. This was done to avoid name conflicts with other libraries
3141 (such as other PHP extensions).
3143 Added raw OID member for preferred record syntax (request_format_raw)
3144 and returned record syntax (output_format_raw) for backend fetch method.
3146 Config file yaz-config now accepts options so that it returns specific
3147 compile settings, etc. Thanks to Morten Bogeskov <morten@bogeskov.dk>
3149 Shared library support for UNIX using GNU libtool.
3151 * Modified backend interface. Request/Response struct's replaced by
3152 one read/write C struct. For example bend_fetchrequest and
3153 bend_fetchresult have been replaced by single bend_fetch_rr struct.
3154 Every handler - even search has to be registered in bend_init
3155 handler. This means that the YAZ library no longer refers to
3156 external functions and it makes it possible to make the whole
3157 thing a single DLL/SO.
3159 Added Segment handler for backend server.
3161 Added Zmbol/Zebra administrative functions to YAZ client.
3163 Threaded frontend server on UNIX (when POSIX Threads are available).
3164 Starting the server with option -T enables multi-threading.
3168 Added configure option --enable-comp/disable-comp to control use
3169 of YAZ ASN.1 compiler. Use --disable-comp to use the old *coders
3170 located in sub directory asn.
3172 YAZ ASN.1 compiler renamed to yaz-comp in sub directory. It's installed
3173 in ${exec_prefix}/bin along with the other programs yaz-client and
3176 GNU automake used to maintain makefiles.
3178 Added several OID's.
3180 Changed retrieval module so that we can load records with no abstract
3181 syntax defined. Tagpaths in these records are fully composed of string
3184 Implemented ISO ILL protocol. Refer to stuff in sub directory ill.
3188 On UNIX, the generated makefile now supports a proper 'make install'.
3189 The prefix can be set via GNU configure to set the install location
3190 (default is /usr/local).
3192 * YAZ programs client and ztest were renamed to yaz-client and
3193 yaz-ztest to avoid conflicts when users install YAZ in "standard"
3194 locations, such as /usr/bin,/usr/local/bin,etc.
3196 * YAZ Header files were moved from include to include/yaz. YAZ Header
3197 files are referred to as include <yaz/log.h> rather than <log.h>.
3198 The YAZ include path (-I ..) is therefore the same as before. Programmers
3199 should update their #include statements or use -Ipath/include/yaz
3200 instead. The main motivation for doing this change is that YAZ header files
3201 can be installed in "standard" locations /usr/include,/usr/local/include
3202 without introducing conflicts, since ALL YAZ header files are stored
3203 in subdirectory yaz (under /usr/include for example).
3205 Compilation of YAZ for WIN32 is now handled by an nmake-style makefile
3206 rather than project/workspace files. We switched because project files
3207 are incompatible between Visual C++ 5 and 6. Refer to windows.txt for
3210 Changed name of logging function, logf, to yaz_log, to prevent name
3211 clash with some math-log functions. The YAZ header log.h defines logf
3212 to yaz_log (#define) so there should be no incompatibilities by this
3215 Added bend_start/bend_stop handlers for server. These handler are
3216 called on start/stop of server. For windows they are called whenever
3217 a service is started/stopped.
3219 * YAZ now auto-generates decoders/encoders for the Z39.50 protocol using
3220 a fairly small ASN.1 compiler written in Tcl. The compiler is located
3221 in util/yc.tcl. The auto-generated C code structures are, in a few
3222 cases, incompatible with the old decoders. There are differences in the
3223 following C structures Z_DiagRec, Z_External, Z_SortRequest, Z_SortResponse,
3224 Z_AttributesPlusTerm, Z_ProximityOperator, Z_DefaultDiagFormat.
3225 The preprocessor variable ASN_COMPILED is defined when the compiled
3226 ASN.1 is being used. Encoder/decoder routines as well as the Z39.50
3227 protocol ASN.1 is located sub directory <tt>z39.50</tt>. If you
3228 wish to use the old encoders/decoders you can specify --disable-yc
3231 Assigned OID for old DB Update (VAL_DBUPDATE0). Updated YAZ compiled
3232 version so that it supports both new - and old version of DB Update
3234 * Added 'name' parameter to ODR encoder/decoder routines to facilitate
3235 pretty ODR print. Updated whole Z39.50 encoder/decoder to reflect the
3236 change. The name parameter can be set to 0 in which no name is specified
3237 for the construction. The macros odr_implicit and odr_explicit sets name
3238 parameter to zero for the construction involved. New macros
3239 odr_implicit_tag and odr_explicit_tag are similar to the others,
3240 except that a name parameter is added. For programmers' that don't use
3241 ODR they probably only need to change the call to z_APDU and z_External.
3243 Added access control facility by interfacing the TCP wrapper library.
3244 YAZ automatically attempts to find the TCP wrapper Library (-lwrap) and
3245 tcpd.h on Unix systems. For the server, option -d<daemon> specifies the
3246 name of the daemon and enables the access control as specified in
3247 hosts.allow/hosts.deny. Refer to man pages tcpd(8) and hosts_access(5).
3249 Fixed memory leak in ccl_find_str and ccl_qual_rm. Thanks to Hans van
3250 den Dool <H.M.vdnDool@kub.nl>.
3252 Added reference ID parameter to most functions in server API - refer
3253 to backend.h. Thanks to Hans van den Dool <H.M.vdnDool@kub.nl>.
3255 Changed name of ccl library to libccl.a (was ccl.a).
3257 Fixed bug in decoder for Explain (Category TargetInfo).
3259 Added support for GNU readline in client. Thanks to Jacob Poulsen
3260 <ja7@dbc.dk>. GNU configure attempts to detect if readline is available.
3262 * CHANGED DEFINITION OF ES: UPDATE (INCLUDING THE OID) to reflect the
3263 new definition from the ZIG. NOTE THIS IF YOU HAVE AN UPDATE
3264 IMPLEMENTATION! This change was made to the development version before
3265 the ZIG decided to retract the amendment. If any users MUST be
3266 compatible with the original Update definition, PLEASE CONTACT US, and
3267 we will include a separate definition corresponding to the old Update
3268 ES. Note that because of the change to the ASN.1 of the
3269 TaskPackageRecordStructure we cannot define a single structure that
3270 will support both versions.
3272 * Added const modifier to buffer parameter for some ODR/BER encoding
3273 routines: ber_dectag, ber_declen, odp_more_chunks, completeBER,
3274 completeWAIS, odr_dumpBER.
3276 Fixed bug in client.c which caused a crash when a scanResponse didn't
3277 contain positionOfTerm.
3279 * Fixed inconsistency in the ScanResponse/ListEntries protocol. This
3280 * will cause an error in a client if a non-YAZ target sends both a
3281 * list of Scan entries and non-surrogate diagnostics.
3283 Retrieval module enhancements. Tag sets may be typed in the reference
3284 to it. From the .abs-file the "tagset" directive takes a third optional
3285 integer type for the tag set referenced. From a .tag-file the "include"
3286 directive takes a third optional type as well. The old "type" directive
3287 in the tag set itself is still recognized but acts as the default type
3290 Backend interface change. Individual Scan terms returned from bend_scan
3291 may also be tagged as Surrogate Diagnostics. Refer to struct scan_entry
3292 in include/backend.h.
3294 Retrieval module enhancements. Multiple tag sets and attribute sets may
3295 be specified in abstract syntax specs. Revised the error/warning for
3296 logging messages reported by the retrieval module when reading the
3299 Object Identifier system (oid_..) changed. The API is backwards
3300 compatible but the oid-routines now allocates new OID's when needed.
3301 Raw OID's may be specified in oid_getvalbyname.
3303 YAZ now uses GNU configure to generate Makefile(s).
3305 * Minor changes in some of the member names of DeleteResultSetRequest and
3306 DeleteResultSetResponse. See include/proto.h.
3308 * Changed some C definitions regarding EXPLAIN record syntax (prt-exp.h)
3309 and added member 'languages' in TargetInfo (which was missing).
3311 Changed the way attribute sets are handled in the retrieval
3312 module. These are now cached, just like the abstract syntaxes
3315 Changed YAZ so that it links with compiled ASN.1.
3317 Added Explain-schema definitions and mapping routines. The following
3318 Explain categories have been implemented: AttributeDetails,
3319 AttributeSetInfo, DatabaseInfo, CategoryList and TargetInfo.
3321 Fixed minor bug in Windows version of Server Library.
3323 --- 1.4pl2+ 1998/4/17 (Released with Zebra)
3325 Added Extended Services to server (backend.h). Thanks to Charles Woodfield.
3327 Added EXTERNAL: UNIverse Resource Report (non-standard).
3329 Implemened odr_enum and odr_set_of functions to handle ASN.1 types
3330 ENUMERATED and SET OF.
3332 * Added 'const' to some of the char pointer arguments for the
3333 functions, data1_read_node, data1_getelementbytagname,
3334 data1_insert_taggeddata, data1_getesetbyname, data1_getelementbyname,
3337 Fixed bug in data1_insert_taggeddata - the last_child member of
3338 parent wasn't initialised.
3340 * Changed data1_read_record and data1_read_node so that the supplied
3341 "SGML"-buffer is read-only. In particular the resulting data1 - tree
3342 doesn't refer to any parts of the "SGML"-buffer.
3344 Fixed bug in server library (Windows version of statserv_remove).
3346 * Changed code so that it compiles as C++. The type definition
3347 of Odr_fun which is a member of Odr_arm was changed. The result is,
3348 that an explicit typecast is needed for the fun pointer when
3349 using Odr_arm - as in:
3350 {1, -1, -1, Z_IdAuthentication_idPass, (Odr_fun)z_IdPass},
3352 Updated TagSet-G and -M definitions (tagsetm.tag and tagsetg.tag).
3354 Implemented the new structured date and time definition as approved
3355 by the ZIG. Added schemaId element to the specificTag in Espec-1
3356 (also approved at the last ZIG). Thanks to RVDM.
3358 Added some Object identifiers (RVDM).
3360 Changed the Update Extended Service (RVDM).
3362 Added command "refid" to client which specifies referenceId for
3363 the following requests.
3365 Implemented extended service handling for server. See ztest.c
3366 for an example as well as backend.h. New handlers are registerd
3367 in the Init handler.
3369 * Changed interface for sort in server.
3371 Added new members to statserv_options_block. It allows a server
3372 to read options from another source than just the command line. Thanks
3373 to Charles Woodfield.
3375 * Changed definition of Z_Triple in file prt-grs.h - member boolean
3376 renamed to zboolean. Some C++ compilers complained about the name.
3378 Minor changes to gils.abs. Added index 's' (sort) on title
3379 and date/time-last-modified.
3381 --- 1.4pl2 1998/1/30
3383 Fixed bug in server library regarding inetd mode (-i). This bug
3384 was introduced by release 1.4.
3386 --- 1.4pl1 1998/1/29
3388 Added sort facility in client and backend server interface.
3390 Fixed problem with dependencies in Makefile(s).
3392 Fixed bugs for encoders/decoders of extended services and
3395 Implemented sub-tree feature for schemas. Sub-trees are
3396 referenced in *.abs-files. See explain.abs for an example
3397 of the use of this feature.
3399 Modified bib1.att; local attributes for ANY didn't include
3400 ANY itself (only affects use of the retrieval module).
3402 Fixed bug in plain SGML reader in function data1_read_node:
3403 tags with prefix "var" was incorrectly interpreted as variants.
3405 Added feature "sub-schemas" to enable references to - and definitions
3406 of - group of elements.
3408 * Removed member parent from type data1_element (in data1.h).
3410 Implemented function odr_nullval() that returns the value of
3413 * Removed member num_children from data1_node (in data1.h).
3415 Made NT service interface part of the server library. The
3416 function statserv_main uses the NT service when required and
3417 calls the statserv_start / statserv_close routines.
3419 Routine zget_SearchRequest and zget_PresentRequest fills
3420 resultSetName/Id member with "default" instead of "Default".
3422 Fixed memory leak in server. Request queue member wasn't freed.
3424 Fixed nmem_exit so that memory is freed.
3428 Revised the CCL parser utility to be thread safe.
3430 Added function, oid_ent_to_oid, to replace the function
3431 oid_getoidbyent, which is not thread safe.
3433 * Added nmem_init and nmem_exit to initialize and release
3434 NMEM resources. Function nmem_init should be called once in the
3435 initial thread before NMEM/ODR is used. statserv.c and client.c
3436 have been changed accordingly. The change was necessary to make
3437 NMEM thread safe. The NMEM memory pool is shared amongst threads
3438 in a process. Unix-based applications will still work fine without
3441 Added NT Services interface for the the Z39.50 (statserv) Server.
3442 Refer to the ztest.c source on the usage.
3444 Windows 95/NT port using MSVC5.0. Project files are included in the
3447 * Defined new 'global' handle for the retrieval (data1) system. The
3448 new handled, data1_handle, describes the state of the data1 system.
3449 This handle is passed as first argument to virtually all
3450 data1 related routines. The functions data1_create and data1_destroy
3451 creates and destroys a data1 handle respectively.
3453 Added ODR encode stream member to all backend request structures
3454 init, search, scan etc. This stream should be used to allocate all
3455 memory used for the response when thread safe operation is needed.
3457 Changed the comstack utility, cs_addstr, to be thread safe. The
3458 returned hostname string returned by the function is now part the
3461 Added comstack utility, cs_straddr, which replaces the tcpip_strtoaddr
3462 function. The cs_straddr takes a COMSTACK handle as argument, so this
3463 function must be used after cs_create and before bind/connect.
3464 This function is thread safe.
3466 Moved test server to 'ztest' directory - generic server code still
3467 in 'server' directory.
3469 Made prefix query (pquery.c) utility thread safe.
3471 Added new function modifier YAZ_EXPORT to 'export' public DLL
3472 functions when using windows (see include/yconfig.h).
3474 Added definitions to the OID database (util/oid.c) (RVDM).
3476 Added new BIB-1 diagnostic messages to the handler diagbib1_str.
3478 Added call to ccl_rpn_delete in client program.
3480 Added ODR argument to ccl_rpn_query and ccl_scan_query to provide
3481 release of RPN structure.
3483 Added support for C++, headers uses extern "C" for public definitions.
3484 With input from RVDM.
3486 In handling of SEQUENCE OF: Counter set to zero when SEQUENCE OF is absent.
3487 Thanks to Ronald van der Meer (RVDM).
3489 Added initializers (zget_ routines) for a number of PDUs. Thanks to RVDM.
3491 Added support for private extensions to the OID database
3492 (oid_setprivateoids()). Thanks to RVDM.
3494 Added optional, physical ANY (key replication)
3496 Fixed null-reference problem in GRS-1 output filter.
3498 Proximity operator added to Prefix Query Format (PQF).
3500 In test client command "base" accepts multiple databases.
3502 Fixed bug in cs_close stack that caused trouble with WINSOCK.
3506 Fixed tagging bug in ResourceReportResponse PDU encoder/decode.
3508 Smallish bug-fixes in the new encoders/decoders (explain).
3510 Bug fixed in DeleteRequest.
3512 Fixed tagging bug of type 101 query in SearchRequest-Query PDU encoder/decoder.
3514 Fixed tagging bug in ResourceReportResponse PDU encoder/decode.
3516 Added SOIF syntax (using private OID for now) to retrieval module and client.
3518 Added Update extended service.
3520 Added SearchResult-1 additional info structure.
3522 Added optional CCL (ISO8777) interpreter as separate module. Available
3525 --- 1.2 1996/6/10 (1st anniversary release)
3527 Added Summary record syntax. Lightly tested.
3529 Added OPAC record syntax. Untested.
3531 Added ResourceReport service encoders/decoders. Untested.
3533 Fixed bug in z_Unit - wrong tagging on unitSystem.
3535 Fixed bug in the DiagRecs decoder.
3537 Added options for max PDU size and session timeout to frontend-server.
3539 Added documentation of query-language parsers and other supporting utilities.
3541 [frontend-server] Added Attribute set to the bend_scanrequest API.
3543 [frontend-server] NextResultSetPosition was sometimes set incorrectly when
3544 surrogate diagnostics were generated.
3546 [retrieval] Allow multiple local values for attribute.
3548 [retrieval] Allow multiple attributes per element in .abs files. index type.
3550 [retrieval] Added Summary tagset, abstract syntax, and d1-node/ASN filter.
3552 --- 1.1pl2 1996/4/10
3554 Minor changes, mostly specific to Zebra's requirements (retrieval)
3558 Repaired bug in frontend server when running multiple listening
3559 endpoints in dynamic mode.
3561 z_External() now won't break if a known, ASN.1 value comes encapsulated
3562 in an octet-string. The value will pass through unmodified in an Odr_oct.
3564 Added a bit of code to the demo client to decode & display
3565 ASN.1-structured records represented in the octet-aligned branch of
3566 the EXTERNAL CHOICE. Thanks to CAS for prodding us to finally do this.
3568 Added z_ext_getentbyref() to the ASN module. Doc updated.
3570 * Completed the SCAN definition in the ASN module. This may break SCAN
3571 code based on older YAZ-versions at compile-time. The fix is easy -
3574 * Added 'displayTerm' and OtherInformation to the TermInfo structure
3575 under the SCAN definition. Remember to initialize this, server-people.
3577 Comstack should now support the WAIS protocol in TCP/IP mode. Note
3578 that this does not extend to ODR and ASN.
3580 Comstack allows insertion of established socket (primarily for
3581 inetd-operation of servers). Doc updated.
3583 Front-end server can now start from the inetd in TCP mode. Doc
3586 --- 1.0pl4 1996/1/24
3590 Fixed small problem in SUTRS-filter. A newline was sometimes inserted before
3591 the rank and record number.
3593 Adjustments to the frontend server.
3595 Fixed diagnostic BER dumper. It ignored the file argument.
3599 Various changes to retrieval module.
3601 Changed the union discriminators of the protocol files from enums to
3602 ints paired with #defines.
3604 *Changed oident.class to oident.oclass to avoid a reserved word in C++
3607 *Changed operator in the RPN structure to 'roperator', again to avoid a
3610 Fixed problems in Explain decoders/encoders.
3612 --- 1.0pl2 1995/12/6
3614 Memory bug in log module fixed.
3616 --- 1.0pl1 1995/12/5
3618 Occasional malloc() of 0 bytes fixed in d1_espec.c.
3620 Bug in Explain DatabaseInfo module fixed.
3622 Some '\r' snuck into one or two of the ret'l config tables. A curse on Windows.
3626 The shift to v1.0 signals that we now consider the *core* functionality
3627 of YAZ reasonably stable (the core being more or less equivalent to
3628 Z39.50-1992). Some of the really nifty v3 stuff is still not heavily
3629 tested (Explain not at all - though that will happen soonish).
3631 Minor changes to code to support Windows port.
3633 Various minor changes after we're getting to use GRS-1 & co. more.
3635 Added Espec-1 format.
3637 Added VisibleString field body type to GRS-1. It is illegal acc. to my copy
3638 of the protocol and it cannot be selected when encoding (maps into 'string'
3639 when decoding). Needed to talk to some servers.
3641 Demo client can request simple element set names.
3643 Added Diagnostic Format encoders/decoders.
3645 Added simple Close handling to frontend server (no hooks for resource
3646 reporting yet), and demonstration client.
3648 Added cs_addrstr() command to COMSTACK to retrieve peer hostname/address.
3650 --- 1.0b3 1995/08/24
3652 Fixed bug in the frontend-server. The numberOfRecordsReturned field was
3653 handled incorrectly when records were requested in the searchResponse. This
3654 will only affect you if you use the frontend-server.
3656 Added GRS-1 encoders/decoders to the service-level API. Lightly tested.
3657 Test-client will ask for and print GRS1. Ztest will return dummy records
3660 Added Explain encoders/decoders to the service-level API. Untested.
3662 Added Extended Services: Item Order encoders and decoders to the Service-
3663 level API. Untested. We could use a recent copy of the pertinent bits
3664 of the ILL protocol to add those bits.
3666 Added diagnostic format 1 encoders/decoders to the service-level API.
3669 Moved pretty-printing of structure-wrappers ({..}) from odr_seq.c to
3670 odr_cons.c, which causes a more correct output.
3672 Fixed handling of searchRequest in frontend server. NextResultSetPosition
3673 was always set to 0 when no records were requested in the searchRequest.
3675 * Added better external-handling. This shouldn't harm old code that
3676 *encodes* externals. It can break code that looks for a
3677 'single-ASN1-type' representation, since those types that are known
3678 are now decoded immediately. Look at the SUTRS sample code in
3679 seshigh.c and client.c. Documentation updated.
3681 Handling of structured records in bend_fetchresponse. Length -1 marks
3682 structured record, type is deduced from format field.
3684 --- 1.0b2 1995/06/27
3685 Fairly quick maintenance release to add SUTRS support.
3687 Fixed handling of SUTRS records in the demonstration client.
3689 * Added format field to the bend_fetchrequest and bend_fetchresponce
3690 structures of the backend API (frontend server). When the record is
3691 returned, the value of the format field is mapped to an OID. The
3692 value VAL_SUTRS will also cause a slightly different ASN.1 packaging
3693 of the record. The special value VAL_NONE in the bend_request means
3694 that no specific format was requested by the client. Documentation
3695 updated accordingly. Test server (ztest) will return a fixed dummy
3696 SUTRS record if your client requests SUTRS.
3698 Documentation updated accordingly.
3700 You can now set external libraries and RANLIB support in the top-level
3704 First public release.
